Candice Jackson, the attorney who once brought women who'd accused former President Bill Clinton of sexual misconduct to a 2016 presidential debate and was later tapped to head the Education Department's civil rights division, dedicated multiple lines of her resume to Hillary Clinton when she applied for a job with the Trump administration. In fact, Politico reported, Clinton even gets a mention in Jackson's "top 5 qualifications for an administration position."
Nestled right under Jackson's experience running a private solo law practice, being a "nationally-featured speaker," and writing a book, is a bullet point noting her "creation of ads and videos attacking Hillary Clinton's lifelong corruption and hypocritical claim to defend women and children."
