WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)Hoping to quell the controversy over e-mails missing from her private ACCOUNT, the former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton on Wednesday released twenty thousand spam e-mails she received from Old Navy.
In an effort to be transparent, I have gone above and beyond what is required of me by law and released every last e-mail I received from this retailer, she told reporters. Now I think we can all consider this case closed.
The e-mails reveal an extensive one-way correspondence between Clinton and Old Navy, as the retailer sometimes contacted her up to a dozen times in a single day to inform her of sales and other offers.
This is one of the main reasons I set up a private e-mail ACCOUNT, she said. I did not want spam from Old Navy clogging up the State Department servers.
But if the former Secretary of State thought that she could end the controversy swirling around her e-mail account by releasing the Old Navy spam, she may have miscalculated.
Representative Trey Gowdy, the Republican chairman of the House Benghazi select committee, questioned why Clinton would let twenty thousand spam e-mails from Old Navy accumulate rather than simply unsubscribe. It doesnt pass the smell test, he said.
Responding to that allegation, Clinton said, I want the American people to know that, on multiple occasions, I tried to unsubscribe from Old Navy, and my requests were ignored. The most frustrating part of this whole affair is that Ive never even bought anything from Old Navy.

(5,018 posts)Yeah, if certain groups here and elsewhere get their way, Hillary will be harmed enough to put a rightwing asshole in the WH
Personally, I will fight with my last breath to prevent that, legally, of course.
But fight I will

Listening to Howdy and the rest is to relive the nightmare of that period.
Are there hidden messages in the Old Navy ads?

And she should also send along all those PAYPAL emails, too, the ones that say her account has been compromised, and all she need do is enter her password and they'll check to make sure no one has messed with her details!!!
