Facebook Falsely Claims Colin Powell Cleared Hillary In Email Case
Derek Hunter

Facebook’s “Trending Topics” section is at it again. Saturday morning the site ran a headline in the section declaring, “Colin Powell: Former Secretary of State Confirms He Recommended Using Personal Email to Hillary Clinton.” The only problem is Powell made no such declaration and he denied Clinton’s claim.

Once clicked, the “Trending Topics” story takes you to a picture of the two former secretaries of state with a caption reading, “Colin Powell: Former Secretary of State Confirms He Recommended Using Personal Email to Hillary Clinton. Powell told Clinton using personal email ‘vastly improved’ communication with his department, he said in a release Thursday. She revealed this to the FBI in July, the New York Times reported.”

Never shows up on my FB wall.

They've got that algorithm thing going well, it seems.

Don't go to 500+ meeting at the White House over 6 six years (all subsequent meetings were held down Pennsylvania Avenue NW, so they didn't have to log in at the gate).....for nothing.
