Hillary Clinton isn’t done ripping Trump officials over the Signal chat leak scandal after they spent years hounding her over her use of a private email server. “The hypocrisy is staggering, but worse, the arrogance and incompetence puts the lives of our military men and women in danger,” the former secretary of state told Glamour on Wednesday. In a 2016 Fox News broadcast, then-host Pete Hegseth decried Hillary had been “reckless” with information and “any security professional, military, government or otherwise, would be fired on the spot for this type of conduct and criminally prosecuted,” reported AP. Newly released messages reveal that Hegseth sent the exact timings of when Navy fighter pilots would attack before bombings began on March 15, jeopardizing the operation. Clinton was cleared of any criminal wrongdoing over her email server use, but she maintains that it was a “determining factor” in her loss 2016 election loss to Trump. She previously reacted to The Atlantic‘s bombshell report in an X post Monday. “You have got to be kidding me,” she wrote alongside a side-eye emoji.
