Quote

It is the height of hypocrisy for [Hillary] Clinton to talk about being the first woman president when every single policy she espouses and every single policy of President [Barack] Obama has been demonstrably bad for women.

There's a whole company called Palantir that does nothing but derive and create algorithms riches to search through big data. We're not using their capabilities. For heaven's sake, some of this is just ineptitude.

I would say that [David] Petraeus and [Hillary] Clinton are being handled very difficultly by this administration over arguably exactly the same issue, which was the handling of classified information over a personal email.
