WASHINGTON – Republican National Committee (RNC) Chairman Reince Priebus issued the following statement on new documents revealing that a senior State Department official allegedly offered the FBI a “quid pro quo” to hide the full extent of Hillary Clinton’s mishandling of classified information:
“It is deeply troubling that a top State Department official close to Hillary Clinton offered the FBI a ‘quid pro quo’ to hide the full extent to which she mishandled classified information. The more documents that come out, the more we learn Hillary Clinton cannot be trusted with a job that is supposed to begin each day with a classified intelligence briefing.
“The Obama Administration’s blatant attempts to shield Hillary Clinton from accountability for her reckless conduct will only inflame the growing distrust Americans have for their own government.”
