Twitter featured a depressing argument over whether it was worse that Trump disrespected the Khans or that Hillary Clinton reportedly\u00a0lied to to the faces of\u00a0multiple Benghazi families. Politifact\u00a0lays out the allegations against Hillary well \u2014 Patricia Smith (Sean Smith\u2019s mother), Kate Quigley (Glen Doherty\u2019s sister), and Charles Woods (Tyrone Woods\u2019s father) each have said that Clinton told them in personal meetings that their loved ones died because of a protest or a video, shamelessly advancing false, politically-motivated administration talking points in the most intimate and tragic of settings. Woods even said that Clinton promised to have the filmmaker \u201carrested\u201d and showed Fox News his diary entry recording that promise.\u00a0 This is what happens when our so-called elite places victory over principle, and electoral majorities cheer them on. Nothing is sacred, everything is politics, and even \u201cleaders\u201d feel they can compound human suffering for the sake of seeking and holding power. These politicians \u2014 and their movements \u2014 stain our national soul.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Which is actually
