42. It does not say Hillary was a member of the Fellowship, nor the Family.

Instead, it is a typically Hillary bashing hit piece, with no "there there," like all the "her emails" news stories that helped Trump win in 2016.

All that article confirmed is that Hillary was in a DC prayer circle with some conservatives who were members of the Fellowship, and she was participating in prayer breakfasts:

These days, Clinton has graduated from the political wives’ group into what may be Coe’s most elite cell, the weekly Senate Prayer Breakfast.

It turned out to be good politics, improving many high profile Republicans' view of her (as the article notes). This allowed her to get these conservatives to work with her on initiatives that helped us all.
