Hillary Clinton apparently has more in common with her husband than his last name. Before Hillary Clinton’s emails had been subpoenaed by the FBI, Clinton insisted, quite adamantly, that she had never sent or received classified information on her private server. That claim might have been true in a technical sense, but it smells like […]
