Michelle Bachmann Says Hillary Clinton Should Be ‘Actually in Time, Doing Jail’

At Friday’s Values Voter Summit, former Congresswoman Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN.) delivered a fiery speech in which she seems to have been told that her audience would only be able to interpret hand gestures that can be seen from space. Just as her speech hit the sweet spot where she was about to blast former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton over the recently-concluded email investigation by the FBI, though, Bachmann ran into a bit of a gaffe:

She should be brought up, by the FBI, and recommended for felony charges, and actually in time, doing jail!

The crowd didn’t seem to notice, though. The FBI concluded its email investigation in July by recommending that there be no charges filed, and recently released investigatory materials, including notes from their interview of Hillary Clinton.
