Hillary Clinton is now lying about her own grandparents immigration history. Hillary Clinton is claiming that all four of her grandparents were immigrants to America. Problem for Hillary is again the facts. Only one of her grandparents, her Hugh Rodham Sr. was an actual immigrant. One of Hillary Clinton’s grandmothers was Hanna Jones Rodham who was born in Pennsylvania in 1882. Hillary Clinton’s other grandparents were both born in Illinois. Della Howell (previously Murray) was born in Illinois in 1902 according to records. She married Edwin Howell (born 1887 in Illinois.) I know, you are all floored that Hillary Clinton would tell a lie for political gain. Pretty pathetic to lie about your own grandparents though. But that’s the progressive liberal Democrat way.

Speaking in Iowa Wednesday, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said that all her grandparents had immigrated to the United States, a story that conflicts with public census and other records related to her maternal and paternal grandparents.
The story of her grandmother specifically immigrating is one Clinton has told before. Clinton’s sole foreign-born grandparent, Hugh Rodham Sr., immigrated as a child.
“Her grandparents always spoke about the immigrant experience and, as a result she has always thought of them as immigrants,” a Clinton spokesman told BuzzFeed News. “As has been correctly pointed out, while her grandfather was an immigrant, it appears that Hillary’s grandmother was born shortly after her parents and siblings arrived in the U.S. in the early 1880s.”
