Every once in a while, the mask just falls completely off. In the case of Hillary Clinton, that is a terrifying prospect, both literally and figuratively.
Clinton, speaking with MSNBC’s resident propagandist Rachel Maddow, recently discussed what she’d like to see the Harris Justice Department do to Americans “engaged” in “propaganda.”

To be clear, the word “propaganda” here can aptly be defined as any facts or information the Democrat regime does not want you to see or hear—reality, in essence.
Maddow helped set up the narrative by wading back into the Russia collusion waters, a media attempt to revive allegations that Vladimir Putin is trying to interfere in the 2024 election.
Clinton took the bait, of course.
“I think it’s important to indict the Russians, just as Mueller indicted a lot of Russians who were engaged in direct election interference and boosting Trump back in 2016. But I also think there are Americans who are engaged in this kind of propaganda,” she warned. “And whether they should be civilly or even in some cases criminally charged is something that would be a better deterrence, because the Russians are unlikely, except in a very few cases, to ever stand trial in the United States.” “So I think we need to uncover all of the connections and make it very clear that you could vote however you want, but we are not going to let adversaries, whether it is Russia, China, Iran, or anybody else, basically try to influence Americans as to how we should vote in picking our leaders,” added Clinton.

All of this is extraordinarily rich coming from a woman who spread election interference propaganda for years following her stunning defeat to Donald Trump in 2016.
Clinton repeatedly and ad nauseam made false claims that the election was stolen from her by the Russians. In an interview just prior to the 2020 election, Clinton again suggested Trump did not win the 2016 election through legitimate means.
“Remember, as I said, he lives with this specter of illegitimacy,” she said. “He knows more about how he got really elected than we still do. Hopefully, we’ll learn more in the years ahead.”
“I was the candidate that they basically stole an election from,” Clinton claimed without evidence.
In fact, the DOJ admitted in 2018 that when it comes to Russia’s best efforts to tamper with the election results, “There is no allegation … of any effect on the outcome of the election.”
And it wasn’t just Clinton. Many of her Democrat colleagues have been actively engaged in propaganda, election misinformation, and denialism that, by her own definition, should lead to criminal charges today.
It was Democrat Al Gore who originally tried to litigate his way to the presidency in 2000. Thirty-one Democrats voted in favor of rejecting electoral votes from Ohio when George W. Bush defeated John Kerry in 2004.
Former President Jimmy Carter believed Trump actually lost to Clinton, saying, “I think a full investigation would show that Trump didn’t actually win the election in 2016.”

It was Democrats who objected to the election results in 2016 officially and during the proceedings certifying electoral votes 11 separate times.
Ah yes, my friends. People tend to forget about that effort to halt official government proceedings and overturn the results of an election. One of the first “insurrections.”
And recall that the Federal Election Commission (FEC) fined Clinton’s 2016 campaign and the Democratic National Committee (DNC) hundreds of thousands of dollars over undisclosed payments for the infamous “Steele dossier.”
The dossier was the catalyst that helped launch the Russiagate hoax against Trump. It was one of the biggest propaganda undertakings in American political history.
If Hillary Clinton wants Americans criminally charged for allegedly spreading misinformation, then, well … go ahead and lock her up.
