The Latest Lie From Sean Spencer

Spicer, Republican National Committee communications director, was speaking to a roomful of journalists when a question was asked about Obama's statement regarding the Russian hacks:

"He said that the CIA and the FBI and the Director of National Intelligence are now in unison believing that Russia interfered in the election. Do you think that is true?"

After claiming he's "not an intel person," Spencer came up with the following gem:

"Number one, this would not have happened had Hillary Clinton not had an improper, a secret server. She did not follow protocol."

What on earth? There is no evidence that Clinton's server was hacked; there is acknowledged to be incontrovertible evidence that Russia hacked the emails of at least the Democratic National Committee and John Podesta. Is Spicer of the opinion that the DNC and Podesta's emails were hosted on Hillary's server? I don't think so. It's simply a flat-out lie.

Spicer is apparently under consideration to be Trump's press secretary.
