Flashback: Hillary Joked About Being Hacked by the Chinese

There’s no question that Hillary Clinton’s private emails were hacked. Indeed, Hillary exploited her own carelessness that allowed the hack to occur in the first place by placing the blame on Russia to add coal to the fire of the “Russian hacking” hoax.

The same was true of the DNC’s supposed hack. It should’ve been a red flag that the DNC wouldn’t allow the FBI access to their servers – and then relied on a Democrat-linked cyber-intelligence firm to conclude that it was the Russians who hacked their servers.

In the case of Hillary’s emails, we just learned that they weren’t hacked by the Russians, but the Chinese. It was a Chinese-owned company operating in Washington D.C. that hacked Hillary’s private email server, and obtained her emails. The Chinese company wrote code that was embedded in her server, and generated an instant “courtesy copy” for nearly all of her emails and forwarded them to the Chinese company, according to the sources that spoke with the Daily Caller.

And prior to being hacked by the Chinese, Hillary Clinton joked about being hacked…. by the Chinese.

As Matt Wolking reminds us, back in 2011, Hillary was having trouble with her private email server, which led her to joke with a State Department employee that it “Must be the Chinese!” responsible.

And that’s not all!

In 2014 Hillary told told a college crowd that “China and Russia …. were going after the personal emails of people who worked in the State Department.” So, she knew of the threat, and continued using a private email server despite that.

Hilariously, the Washington Post is trying to provide cover for Hillary, but back in 2015 Politico reported on comments from Former Deputy CIA Director Michael Morell, in which he stated that “I think that foreign intelligence services, the good ones, have everything on any unclassified network that the government uses.” The Chinese (but not the Russians) would be in the category of “the good ones.”

And as Politico also reported in 2015, “Hillary Clinton’s private email server containing tens of thousands of messages from her tenure as secretary of state — including more than 400 now considered classified — was the subject of hacking attempts from China, South Korea and Germany after she stepped down in 2013, according to Congressional investigators.”

So, again, Hillary knew the exact threat having a private email server posed. Not only did she do nothing about it – she joked about it.

Now imagine if Trump had joked about colluding with the Russians in the past – we’d never hear the end of it.
