This is good news like Benghazi was about a YouTube video.
CBS Face The Nation anchor John Dickerson was visibly amused at Hillary Clinton’s positive spin Sunday over the granting of immunity to the aide who set up her private email server, asking with a smile, “You see this as good news?”
Bryan Pagliano was granted immunity by the Department of Justice for his cooperation in the criminal investigation into Clinton’s private server while secretary of state, a scandal that has hung over the entirety of her 2016 presidential campaign. Nevertheless, Clinton and her surrogates have continually put a happy face on the proceedings.
“When this happens, I talk to Democrats, and they worry that somebody is going to get indicted,” Dickerson said.
Clinton referred to the investigation as a “security review” as she responded.
“Well, there is no basis for that,” Clinton said. “It’s a security review. I’m delighted that he has agreed to cooperate, as everyone else has, and I think we’ll be moving toward a resolution of this.”
“So you see this as good news? You see this as good news?” Dickerson asked incredulously.
“Yeah, I do. Absolutely,” Clinton said. “I think we’re getting closer and closer to wrapping this up. I also know that there were reports today about the hundreds of officials and the thousand emails that they were sending back and forth that have been looked at and classified retroactively. This really raises serious questions about this whole process, I think.”

She cites Colin Powell? Did Colin Powell also have a private email server?
Oh, I get it. According to Hillary, the problem is that the emails were classified retroactively; having a private email server is not really an issue. Oh brother …
Powell had a private email account. I believe that the server was thereby private because it was a Google server (or whatever company it was). Difference is State Dept. rules allowed when Powell did it and no one has shown that classified information was sent on that account /server.
Chuck, no he did not. As for this cow; she can smell her pardon already. Obama has as much on the line as does Killary.
Every time I think the lies can’t get any more brazen, she manages to top herself. It boggles the mind.
Last year her server guy, Bryan Pagliano, was called to testify and he invoked his 5th Amendment privilege and refused. That ought to be a big scandal in itself. And now he’s given immunity, which is done to preclude his pleading the 5th and compel his testimony. This is only done when a prosecutor is intent on going higher up the food chain to indict a more important person. So if this is good news for Hillary, then her being indicted will be even better news, and she’ll spin her subsequent conviction as a way to put this affair behind her. Maybe she’ll even cite others that came out of prison to lead their countries, such as Nelson Mandela or Adolf Hitler.
Hillary, I have good news and not quite so good news. The good news, You’ve been elected President! Of Cell Block 9.
