Hillary Clinton took a few questions from Bret Baier in an interview that played on FOX News Special Report last night. The interview runs eight minutes (video below). Baier only got in a few questions about the Clinton email scandal. From word one falsehood and evasion have provided the order of the day. Last night was no exception.

 

Even though the interview ran true to form, it is nevertheless almost shocking. The woman lies with pathological abandon. There is no subtlety here. It does not depend on the meaning of “is.” The lying is rampant and obvious.

This interview is the first in which Clinton has been asked about her refusal to answer questions in connection with the State Department Inspector General’s report on her email arrangement. Through her lawyer, Clinton refused the IG’s request for an interview. Clinton’s senior aides also blew off the IG’s request for an interview. (John culled the report for highlights and posted the full text here.)

 

(Snip)

 

Clinton’s struggle with Baeir’s question about Clinton’s economic plans failed the laugh test in a different way. Mediaite’s Sam Reisman handles this part of the interview in “In interview with Fox’s Bret Baier, Clinton deliver’s rambling non-answer on economy.”
