Today we will be continuing our series on the dark and sordid history of the Clinton administration for the young and perpetually uninformed. The person in this photograph is named Craig Livingstone. He was the original director of the Clinton Administration’s White House Office of Personal Security. In 1996, it was discovered that Mr. Livingstone had improperly requested and received somewhere between 400 and 900 top secret files from the FBI. He gained illegal and unauthorized access to some of the darkest secrets of many of the most powerful people in Washington D.C. The political power of such potential knowledge is almost immeasurable.
President Clinton publicly apologized for the incident and attributed this unfortunate event and being caused by a “series of mistakes.” It was pointed out that the White House was not responsible for hiring Craig Livingstone and that this responsibility fell upon the Secret Service. The Clintons subsequently argued that all of the misdeeds of Mr. Livingstone should rest squarely at the feet of the Secret Service. Livingstone immediately announced his resignation and no charges were ever brought against him.
It was later revealed that Hillary Rodham Clinton was personal friends with Craig Livingstone’s mother and had recommended him for hire. We are now all expected to believe that Hillary Clinton personally placed a family friend in the White House who proceeded to steal some of America’s darkest secrets without ever bothering to share these valuable secrets with anyone else. Once again, there was no irrefutable proof that Hillary Clinton ever did anything wrong.
The media encouraged us all to simply move along…
they told us that there is nothing else to see here…
and the band played on.
