Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton slammed Donald Trump and his allies on Fox News for “desperately spinning up a fake scandal” about her “to distract from his real ones” amid the escalation of multiple investigations into Trump.
Clinton lambasted the former president and the right-wing cable network on Twitter for amplifying the debunked claim that her 2016 campaign spied on Trump and infiltrated the White House after he became president.
“Trump & Fox are desperately spinning up a fake scandal to distract from his real ones,” Clinton wrote on Twitter.
“So it’s a day that ends in Y. The more his misdeeds are exposed, the more they lie,” she added while sharing a Vanity Fair article titled “for those interested in reality”, which fact-checks the new right-wing talking point.
