White House Colluded With Hillary Clinton’s Staff To “Crush” Interview


Just ten days after the media began discussing Hillary’s emails, White House communications chief Jennifer Palmieri reached out to State Department spokesperson Jen Psaki. The subject of their discussion? How to “crush” an interview where Hillary’s successor John Kerry might be asked about her emails:

“Ms. Palmieri had previously announced she would be leaving the administration to join Mrs. Clinton’s campaign in mid-2015, but was still at the White House when she sent the email. Other emails show Ms. Palmieri helped arrange for Ms. Psaki to move from the State Department to the White House communications job Ms. Palmieri was vacating. ‘Agree completely and working to crush on my end,’ wrote back Ms. Psaki, who would move to the White House weeks later.

A day later, Ms. Psaki added, ‘Good to go on killing CBS idea.’ She continued, ‘And we are going to hold on any other TV options just given the swirl of crap out there.’ Mr. Kerry wasn’t asked on CBS about the email server, though it isn’t clear how Ms. Psaki could have guaranteed that.

Teased by Ms. Palmieri about her use of the phrase ‘swirl of crap,’ Ms. Psaki wrote back: ‘Ha I mean—the challenging stories out there.’

CBS News denied there was any any coordination in its questioning of Kerry that day. No questions were asked about Clinton’s email scandal; instead, the interview focused on the Middle East and the Iran nuclear deal.”
