Senator calls for Hillary Clinton accountability: ‘They spied and they lied’

Florida GOP Sen. Rick Scott Tuesday demanded accountability from former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton after a court filing revealed lawyers for her presidential campaign allegedly paid a technology company to “infiltrate” servers belonging to Trump Tower and the White House to compile dirt on former President Trump related to Russia. 

Scott also blasted the mainstream media for “parroting” the Democratic narrative that Trump engaged in Russian collusion, while a recent filing from Special Counsel John Durham found the Clinton campaign “actually spied on the President of the United States,” he said. 

“They spied and they lied,” Scott said Tuesday at the Capitol. “We need accountability. We need accountability for the Clinton campaign.”

Durham revealed in a court filing on Feb. 11 that techies working for the Clinton campaign were mining internet servers and data at the White House and Trump Tower for the purpose of gathering derogatory information about Trump. They were trying to establish an “inference” and “narrative” about Trump and Russia, the court filing said.

Scott also called for “accountability” for two House Democrats who helped lead the Russia collusion investigation into Trump.

“We need accountability for Adam Schiff and Jerry Nadler because they were complicit in this,” Scott said. “So the media needs to start doing their job.”
