We understand that she has been lying repeatedly with just blatantly, easily verifiable things like the official Congressional record. I'm an original sponsor on HRC 7008, which is the bill that prohibits members of Congress from trading stocks. So she's flailing. She's looking for something. And, you know, it's funny. I look up the people that complain about these things, and they're all rabid leftists, which tells me that they're effective. (00:55–01:04)
