Think Watergate Commission [removed_why_investigate].

Okay, so I haven't seen any discussion of this one on the thread yet, so I went looking.

Funny thing is, I (with my rudimentary research skills) found it hard to find anything on Hillary being "removed" from the Watergate commission. Of course Snopes said the allegation was false. But what else would they say.

This article did have some information on the topic. I had always taken for granted that EVERYBODY knew Hillary was kicked off the committee.

This from the article.

The article quoted Zeifman as saying: “She was a liar. She was an unethical, dishonest lawyer. She conspired to violate the Constitution, the rules of the House, the rules of the committee and the rules of confidentiality.”…

And this.

Zeifman was asked directly whether he fired her. His answer: “Well, let me put it this way. I terminated her, along with some other staff members who were — we no longer needed, and advised her that I would not — could not recommend her for any further positions.”

So, yea. She was removed for the above reasons.

But there has got to be more to it if Q is emphasizing this now. I am thinking that she had to have attempted something really egregious rather that being a little too aggressive with her tactics.

In the Al Smith speech, Trump asks how corrupt one has to be to be fired from the Watergate team. Maybe, even then, she was trying to sell access to her influence.

So I get that he didn’t actually fire fire her, he let her go when her assignment was over, making it very clear he was not satisfied with her performance or character.

My guess is... she was a gunner. One of those 26 year old pip-squeaks who come in and know everything listen to nothing, but somehow know who to kiss up to and who to piss down on. One of those ones who would run over their own grandma to get ahead.

Criminal already? Well, she grew up in the mob, so what do ya think?
