Hillary's Campaign Kickoff


Recommended Posts

Democrat vs Democrat

 

After working in Silicon Valley for years, Morgan Quirk felt good protesting outside the home of a venture capitalist who funded tech startups and fundraisers for Hillary Clinton. He was part of a new splinter group of the liberal party: Democrats marching against Democrats in San Francisco, commuting tech workers against their bosses.

HAPPENING NOW: FEC report shows Clinton raising big cash from lobbyists who've repped oil/gas, Walmart & Wall St

 

 

Amid an intensifying presidential campaign debate over the influence of lobbyist money over public officials, Hillary Clinton filed a campaign finance report Friday detailing more than $1.5 million her campaign raised with the help of lobbyists in the first three months of 2016. That is on top of the more than $4 million that lobbyists bundled for her campaign in 2015, bringing her total lobbyist cash haul to more than $5.6 million during her presidential run.

Clooney's not thinking things through:

 

George Clooney claimed massive political fundraising is a necessary evil in order to permanently eliminate the influence of money in politics during an exclusive interview on Meet the Press.

"The Supreme Court can overturn Citizens United and get this obscene, ridiculous amount of money out so I never have to do a fundraiser again," he said. "And that's why I'm doing it."

So... to recap, he thinks campaigning for a woman who is benefiting the most from Citizen's United in the hopes she'll appoint justices to overturn a ruling she agrees with.

Yeah, that's what he's saying. Hillary might find it in her heart if elected to appoint such judges but of course not until she has reaped the benefits and no longer needs them.

Clooney is a celebrity. Celebrities basically live on God mode being able to do whatever they want without the consequences. That's all he knows.

Hillary Clinton’s entire argument surrounding her involvement in the Benghazi scandal is the fact that she didn’t lie to the American people, but rather changed her story as new information became available.

The problem is that the timeline completely ruins Hillary Clinton’s narrative and now that the State Department has released more Benghazi documents, we have PROOF that Hillary Clinton lied under oath!

Before Hillary Clinton started telling the country that a “horrible YouTube video” had spontaneously caused the attack, she was telling her family members in private that Benghazi was the result of a terrorist attack.

In the evening of September 11, 2012, the State Department released a statement from Hillary Clinton, saying that the violence was in response to inflammatory material posted on the internet.

An hour later, however, Hillary Clinton wrote to her daughter, Chelsea, and told a different story:

“Two of our officers were killed in Benghazi by an Al Queda [sic] like group: The Ambassador, whom I handpicked and a young communications officer on temporary duty w a wife and two young children. Very hard day and I fear more of the same tomorrow. Let's try again later.”

Within an hour, she was telling the American people one thing and her family members another. But more importantly, she lied under oath to Congress!

The State Department just confirmed that Hillary LIED under oath! FaxBlast Congress and demand they hold this criminal in Contempt of Congress and prosecute her now!

In newly released notes, we now get a glimpse into the stories she was telling foreign leaders. It seems that her lying wasn’t just limited to the story she told the American people.

On September 12th, Hillary Clinton spoke to Afghan President Hamid Kharzi.

“We appreciate your statement in response to the video," she said, "especially, the point that the people that make these kind of videos are a fringe group. We need to talk about religious feelings and insults and defamation.”

No, Madam Secretary. On September 12th, the United States didn’t need to talk about religious feelings and insults and defamation and the US shouldn’t have. But Barack Obama was running for re-election and couldn’t risk admitting he left Americans to die during a terror attack.

Just hours after this phone call, Hillary spoke to Egyptian Prime Minister Hisham Kandil over the phone. She told him that the Benghazi attacks “had nothing to do with the film.”

Hillary’s story didn’t change according to information she received, her story changed because she wanted to deceive. By our count, Hillary Clinton’s narrative changed at least five times during the first 24 hours after the attack. However her message to the American people was always a lie.

She testified before Congress, under oath, that all of her statements were determined by the intelligence available at the time. She lied.

Perjury is a criminal offense and Congress has the power to hold her in Contempt.

It is up to YOU to demand it!

Hillary lied and Americans died! Force Congress to hold Corrupt Clinton in Contempt of Congress and prosecute her to the fullest extent!

Trey Gowdy, everyone’s favorite Congressional prosecutor, came out this week and announced that the Benghazi Committee was getting closer to releasing it’s final report.

That’s not good enough!

Time and time again, Hillary has asked "what difference does it make" if she lied to the American people.

It makes all the difference. Four people died and she didn't even have the decency to tell the truth as to why.

Hillary Clinton needs to be held in Contempt. She needs to be put away. She lied under oath about lying to the American people!

But the only way this happens is if you get loud and unavoidable right now!

Don’t let Hillary get away with lying under oath! FaxBlast and DEMAND that Congress hold Hillary Clinton in Contempt of Congress and prosecute her fully!

Sincerely,

Joe Otto

"She’s Baldly Lying": Dana Frank Responds to Hillary Clinton’s Defense of Her Role in Honduras Coup

 

http://m.democracynow.org/stories/16122

As disgusting as Hillary is, I also find it disturbing that these commie professors get their shorts in a bunch about this poor poor commie dictator being removed but could not give crap one about our boys dying in Benghazi. Maybe if they even faked caring about both it might have an impact.

There is a moderate Republican running in this race, but she's running as a Democrat:

 

In the late 1970s, as large corporations turned into transnational giants, they pumped huge amounts of cash into the political system. This largesse lured, first, the Republican Party, in the 80s, followed by the Democratic Party in the ‘90s, and precipitated a rightward political shift as both parties rewrote their policies to compete for the same corporate contributions.

 

Before this, from 1932-1976, the Democratic Party as a whole was far more progressive. The issues and approaches advocated today by Bernie Sanders were considered mainstream Democratic ideas by Franklin D. Roosevelt, John F. Kennedy, and Lyndon Johnson, and even many moderate Republicans. It was common to support strict financial regulation, liberal immigration, social services for the poor, and progressive tax policies.

 

Hillary Clinton’s stances, while fluid during this election cycle, are historically most in tune with classical Republican ideas, as advocated by Dwight Eisenhower, Richard Nixon, and others. As a young woman, she volunteered for the conservative Barry Goldwater, and while today she’s become liberal on some social issues, she’s generally at home with moderate conservative ideas, such as a hawkish military, strict immigration laws, reduced welfare, laissez-faire rules for Wall Street, and international business treaties that favor large corporations.

Sanders' team just accused Hillary of violating campaign finance rules

 

"Bernie 2016 is particularly concerned that these extremely large-dollar individual contributions have been used by HVF to pay for more than $7.8 million in direct mail efforts and over $8.6 million in online advertising," Deutsch wrote in the letter.

The Sanders campaign claimed that, "at best, the joint committee's spending on direct mail and online advertising appears to represent an impermissible in-kind contribution" — essentially a gift that must be reported as if the Clinton campaign itself spent the funds — "from the DNC and the participating state party committees."

"At worst, using funds received from large-dollar donors who have already contributed the $2,700 maximum to HFA [Hillary for America] may represent an excessive contribution," the letter read.

Deutch also said filings showed that all $2.6 million of HVF's costs for staff salaries and overhead associated with running the joint committee were actually reimbursements to the Clinton campaign, which provided those services. Deutch argued that that fact "raises equally serious concerns" that Clinton is using the joint fundraising committee to "subsidize" her campaign.
