Fox News host Sean Hannity mockingly suggested witnesses in Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s probe use the Hillary method of avoiding criminal charges – destroy the evidence! (RELATED: Sean Hannity Criticizes Trey Gowdy After FBI Support).
The whole thing went right over the collective media’s heads and they ran with it as if Hannity were serious, suggesting he face his own criminal charges.
In doing so, the liberal media inadvertently reminded the American public that Clinton and her top aides did actually commit these crimes and they should have been charged with evidence tampering. Well done!
First, reports surfaced on Wednesday that Mueller has been instructing witnesses to hand over their cellphones “to inspect their encrypted messaging programs.”

Hannity appeared on his show and in a blistering and sarcastic plea urged those very witnesses to deploy the Hillary plan.
“Maybe Mueller’s witnesses, I don’t know, if I advised them to follow Hillary Clinton’s lead,” he began before listing the many acts that team Hillary was proven guilty of.
“Delete all your emails, and then acid wash the emails and hard drives on your phones, then take your phones and bash them with a hammer into little itsy bitsy pieces, use BleachBit, remove the sim cards,” he continued. “And then take the pieces and hand it over to Robert Mueller and say, ‘Hillary Rodham Clinton, this is equal justice under the law.'”
It was hilarious …
Hey remember when Assange DM’d Hannity asking him to reach out on an encrypted app?

Now, we expect a Media Matters flack like the original tweeter above to not understand basic sarcasm. But the entire segment, despite Hannity blatantly pointing out twice that he was jokingly referring to what Clinton’s camp had done, went right over blue checkmark Twitter’s heads.
At least, that’s what they’re pretending as they call out for criminal prosecution of the Fox News host.
Congratulations to Sean Hannity for sending himself to prison with his on-air meltdown tonight.

Sean Hannity should be indicted for instructing witnesses to destroy material evidence. No one is above the law. Especially not Putin’s president or this unhinged bozo. #FireHannity pic.twitter.com/Yhz6KFPkVx

They’re either that obtuse, or they’re pretending to be just to take down Hannity. Either way, it’s confounding stupidity on their part.
After all, if they honestly feel Hannity should face criminal repercussions for ‘suggesting’ people destroy evidence, then surely Hillary should face real criminal repercussions for having her team actually take those actions.
The people outraged that Sean Hannity said Mueller witnesses should do EXACTLY what Hillary Clinton did with her data and phones…
Were NEVER outraged that Hillary actually did it.
You can’t have it both ways.

If you think Sean Hannity should go to jail for telling Mueller witnesses to delete data and destroy their phones with a hammer…
Then you must agree that Hillary Clinton should be in jail because that’s EXACTLY what she did… Period.

And there it is. The media is so desperate to attack Hannity and anybody associated with President Trump that they accidentally revealed the truth. Hillary and her aides committed a crime in destroying evidence; with Bleach Bit, with hammers, and ‘like with a cloth or something.’
Save the faux outrage for Hannity and focus it on the people who actually are corrupt.
