                  MEDIA IGNORE ADMINISTRATION SCANDALS

                                 ______
                                 

                            HON. LAMAR SMITH

                                of texas

                    in the house of representatives

                      Wednesday, December 9, 2015

  Mr. SMITH of Texas. Mr. Speaker, the national liberal media 
repeatedly comment that the current administration is ``scandal free.'' 
But that's because they ignore scandals involving Democrats.
  For example, Hillary Clinton claims that everyone knew she used a 
private email server as Secretary of State. Yet, White House officials 
stated they were unaware of the server. The media has yet to pursue 
what was known or why the use of this server was allowed.
  The national media also has failed to uncover who gave the orders for 
the IRS to target conservatives or if White House officials helped 
cover up the incident.
  And when an American is murdered by an illegal immigrant, the press 
never connects the loss of life to the president's refusal to enforce 
our immigration laws.
  The only people who believe the administration is ``scandal free'' 
are its allies in the national liberal media.
