A former military aide to President Bill Clinton is blowing the lid off the Clinton White House, painting a chilling portrait of then-First Lady Hillary Clinton as a figure so feared she was dubbed the “Nazi Schoolmarm,” driving aides to hide in doorways to escape her wrath.
Buzz Patterson, who served as Senior Military Aide from 1996 to 1998 and carried the 'Presidential Emergency Satchel' enabling nuclear strikes, is sounding the alarm on the toxic atmosphere where Hillary’s presence turned the White House into a scene straight out of “Schindler’s List.”

Patterson, a retired Air Force lieutenant colonel who lived in the White House and traveled everywhere with the Clintons, revealed that the daily mood in the executive mansion hinged on Hillary’s whims.
“We used to say that when Hillary was gone, it was a frat party. When she was home, it was Schindler’s List,” he wrote in a scathing post on X, which has since racked up over five million views.
He described her as "evil, vindictive, profane" and "a b****," setting a tone of dread that permeated the administration.
"Among the military who served in the White House and the professional White House staff, the Clinton administration was infamously known for its lack of professionalism and courtesy, though few ever spoke about it,” Patterson stated. “But when it came to rudeness, it was Hillary Clinton who was the most feared person in the administration. She set the tone."

From the moment he arrived, Patterson was given the heads up about Hillary’s fearsome reputation.
"When I first arrived to work in the White House, my predecessor warned me: 'You can get away with pissing off Bill but if you make her mad, she’ll rip your heart out,'" he recounted.
He heeded the advice, admitting he angered Bill Clinton on occasion—like refusing to let the president visit an unswept restaurant due to Secret Service protocols—but steered clear of Hillary’s ire, knowing "the ramifications."
In a response to an X user asking what angered Bill, Patterson elaborated on the restaurant incident, underscoring the stark contrast in how the Clintons handled conflict.
Hillary’s dominance extended to strict protocols that kept staff on edge.
"She instructed the senior staff, including me, that she didn’t want to be forced to encounter us," Patterson wrote, describing how aides, regardless of rank, scrambled to avoid her.
"Many a time, I’d see mature, professional adults, working in the most important building in the world, scurrying into office doorways to escape Hillary’s line of sight," he added. "She was the Nazi schoolmarm and the rest of us were expected to hide as though we were kids in trouble."
Patterson also exposed Hillary’s alleged disdain for the military, claiming she attempted to ban uniforms in the White House during the 1996 election to downplay their priority.
"She was trying to craft the narrative that the military was not a priority in the Clinton administration," he wrote.
As the aide carrying the nuclear football, Patterson objected, arguing that uniforms were critical for visibility in emergencies.
"If the balloon went up, the Secret Service would need to find me as quickly as possible. Seconds matter. Finding the aide in military uniform made complete sense,” he said.
The Secret Service’s intervention forced Hillary to relent, but the episode cemented Patterson’s view of the Clintons’ priorities.
Patterson, an outspoken Donald Trump supporter, concluded his account with a damning verdict: "The Clintons are corrupt beyond words."
HILLARY CLINTON

As some of you know, I was the Air Force Military Aide for Bill Clinton, lived in the White House, traveled everywhere they traveled, and carried the “nuclear football.” As such, I was always in close proximity to both Bill and Hill.
Among the military who…
Neither the Clinton Presidential Center nor Hillary Clinton’s representatives have commented on these claims, which echo Patterson’s earlier accounts in his memoir and interviews.
Clinton has danced on the edge of the law for decades, leaving a trail of scandals so long it could wrap around the Beltway twice. From Whitewater to the email server, from Benghazi to the Clinton Foundation’s shady deals, Hillary’s rap sheet reads like a crime novel you can’t put down.

Hillary’s private email server, used as Secretary of State from 2009 to 2013, wasn’t just a "mistake"—it was a deliberate end-run around federal law.
The Espionage Act (18 U.S.C. § 793) makes it a felony to mishandle classified information, whether intentionally or through gross negligence. The FBI found 110 emails on her server containing classified material, 65 marked “Secret” or "Confidential" at the time, and 22 labeled "Top Secret."
Then-FBI Director James Comey admitted, "There is evidence that they were extremely careless in their handling of very sensitive, highly classified information." That’s gross negligence – a slam-dunk violation of Section 793(f), punishable by up to seven years in prison.
Then there’s the Federal Records Act (44 U.S.C. Chapter 31), which mandates preservation of government records.
Hillary’s server bypassed State Department systems, and she deleted 33,000 emails—after a congressional subpoena—claiming they were "personal." That’s obstruction of justice (18 U.S.C. § 1519), which carries a 20-year penalty for destroying records to impede an investigation. Her team used BleachBit to wipe the server clean, and her aides smashed devices with hammers to cover her tracks.
The 2012 Benghazi attack, which killed Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans, exposed Hillary’s failures as Secretary of State. While not directly a criminal act, her negligence in ignoring security requests—despite 600 pleas for help, as congressional testimony revealed—raises questions of dereliction under 18 U.S.C. § 1385, which governs misuse of authority.
Worse, she lied to Congress and the public, blaming a YouTube video for the attack while privately emailing her daughter that it was terrorism. That’s perjury (18 U.S.C. § 1621), a five-year felony, and a violation of public trust that left heroes dead on her watch.
Meanwhile, the Clinton Foundation, a supposed charity, operated as a slush fund for influence peddling.

The Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (15 U.S.C. § 78dd-1) prohibits U.S. officials from accepting bribes for official acts, yet the Foundation raked in millions from foreign donors while Hillary was Secretary of State.
A 2010 deal saw Russian firm Rosatom gain control of U.S. uranium reserves after $500,000 in donations from related parties to the Foundation and a $2.35 million pledge from Frank Giustra, a Canadian businessman involved in the deal.
Emails from aide Huma Abedin show donors expected access, a clear violation of 18 U.S.C. § 201 (bribery of public officials), which carries a 15-year sentence. The Foundation’s failure to disclose these donations also violated IRS regulations (26 U.S.C. § 527), risking its tax-exempt status.
Hillary’s rap sheet—violations of the Espionage Act, Federal Records Act, obstruction, bribery, perjury, and abuse of power—should have landed her in an orange jumpsuit years ago.
As somebody who once held the highest security clearance in the land, it’s obvious that nobody on the left will ever be charged with willfully stealing and holding classified documents. Bill Clinton did it, Hillary Clinton did it, and Joe Biden’s been doing it for 50 years. The…

So why is she free? The deep state.
