Thomas Lifson of the American Thinker highlights the latest pronouncement from former Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.
Hillary Clinton is emerging from the shadows and pimping censorship as the solution to the Democrats’ ills.

This is the woman who said she’d never endorsed the Trans-Pacific Partnership, who tried to enlist in the Marines in ’75, who swore her server wasn’t hacked and she was never subpoenaed (Trey Gowdy called her out on that one), who compared herself to Honest Abe Lincoln, who said Chelsea Clinton was downtown on 9/11 …
