#news Fast Fact: Lifelong Democrat Jerry Zeifman says he fired Hillary Clinton when she was a staff attorney for the House Judiciary during the Watergate investigation because she had no integrity
"'Because she was a liar. She was an unethical, dishonest lawyer, she conspired to violate the Constitution, the rules of the House, the rules of the Committee, and the rules of confidentiality."
Clinton (Rodham ) was 27-years old at the time that the Judiciary Committee, tasked with investigating impeachment grounds, hired a team of young lawyers, including Rodham.
Rodham's assignments included researching impeachment procedures and historical precedents.
Zeifman said he fired Rodham after the investigation wrapped up, and refused to write her a recommendation letter—one of only three denials in his 17-year career.
He accused her of suppressing evidence about presidential representation in impeachment proceedings.
According to Zeifman, Rodham drafted a memo arguing Nixon should be denied counsel, which he viewed as a violation of due process and an attempt to rig the process against the Republican president.
This, he argued, reflected a win-at-all-costs mentality that has repeatedly showed up in subsequent Clinton controversies.
Fact checkers say Zeifman's claims are false, and pay records showed she was paid through the company's dissolution - saying there was no mid-inquiry termination.
Controversies surrounding Clinton
In the 1990s Clinton faced investigations into real estate dealings and White House firings.
She was accused of document withholding and ethical lapses.
Her handling of the 2012 Libya attack (Benghazi) and use of a private email server as secretary of state - 30,000 emails deleted. - prompted accusations of lying to Congress and the public, reinforcing allegations of dishonesty that trace back to her early legal work.
