Hillary's Campaign Kickoff

[4merper4mer]

Christopher Hitchens (rip) compilation on HRC:

 

Lol I forgot to tell you a funny story. A couple of GvGs back the big man started answering in this dude's voice. I laughed and told him it was funny and I got the joke. He informed me that I did not in fact get the joke. When I asked him to explain he told me that he wasn't the big man at all....he was actually Hitchens. The big man was forcing him to eat crow.

 

He had already had to power wash and stain the back part of the fence, which is evidently nothing like the pearly gates. And it's big. He had a meeting with Hitler who explained to him why everyone made it to heaven with a bunch of really lame stuff. Turns out it was Rich Little dressed up like Hitler. They made him sweat out a bible test the first four Thursday's he was there and told him if he failed he have to go meet Guccifer's older brother. They threatened to send him back to Earth as a Cubs fan who did not drink. I found that one mean. Then he had to do his best and fill in on a GvG. I think the big guy was a little ticked when CH let the cat out of the bag but we all had a laugh.

What does Walmart and Hillary Clinton have in common? Glad you asked. She served for six years on the Walmart Board of Director and a shareholder.

“As a shareholder and director of our

company

, I’m always proud of Wal-Mart and what we do and the way we do it better than anybody else.” –

Hillary Clinton

(1990)

A forgotten video has surfaced of Hillary Clinton’s hidden side of Walmart support which goes quite counter to the union loving, socialist platform she stumps on today.

Labor lawyer John Tate, also on the board of Walmart, was a voice of strident opposition to labor unions. He repeated again and again, “Labor unions are nothing but blood sucking parasites.”

Nowhere on the board meeting videos do we ever see Hillary speak in defense of labor unions today, though she certainly takes as much money as she can from them.

That's pretty damning. I'm sure the media is going to pounce all over this.

 

Right after they take her to task for her email server and leaving four Americans for dead in Benghazi.

Candidate in the race most like Bush and Cheney is Hillary Clinton

 

“The candidate in the race most like George W. Bush and Dick Cheney from a foreign policy perspective is in fact Hillary Clinton, not the Republican nominee,” explained GOP strategist Steve Schmidt in an interview this week on MSNBC this week.

“One thing we know as we get ready for a general election contest is that Donald Trump will be running to the left as we understand it against Hillary Clinton on national security issues,” he added.

Schmidt is a longtime Republican operative who formerly served as the spokesman for the National Republican Congressional Committee, a deputy assistant to President George W. Bush and a senior campaign strategist for John McCain’s 2008 presidential campaign. He is now a political analyst for MSNBC.

In the segment, Schmidt argued that Clinton is going to flex her extremely hawkish foreign policy stances to woo leading Republican figures.

“You’re going to see a concerted and organized effort by the Hillary Clinton campaign to go after senior members of the Republican foreign policy establishment,” he said.

“Big names,” Schmidt stressed, citing figures such as former Bush-era Secretary of State Colin Powell, former CIA Director David Petraeus, and Bush senior’s National Security Adviser Brent Scowcroft.

“Men and women who served in senior positions, in national security positions, in Republican administrations — the Clinton campaign’s going to go after them. They’re going to go after them forcefully,” the former GOP strategist continued.

It wouldn't surprise me in the least if she tapped Colin Powell for Veep.

Not that she will lose, but picking Powell would be opening herself up to reliving her decision to believe what 43's administration was selling in terms of Iraq.

 

 

This is the exact opposite of what the country needs -- which is why she'll probably be tempted to do it.

This is not news. This is why many on the left are big on Bernie. They see her as a huge chicken hawk.

No, it's not news but it's worth repeating as the media goes into full on Clinton propaganda mode.

 

Though she isn't a chicken. She's just straight hawk.

The Clinton campaign’s scheme to rob … other Democrats

 

Original Article

 

 

 

 

Hillary Clinton’s fund-raising games with the Democratic National Committee may not legally be the “money-laundering” Bernie Sanders charges, but the whole thing certainly reeks.

The Clinton camp and the DNC insisted their much-vaunted “joint” venture was designed to raise big money for state and local Democratic parties. Ha!

In fact, less than 1 percent of the $61 million raised ended up with state parties. The rest went to Hillary’s campaign and to the decidedly pro-Hillary DNC, Politico reports.

Indeed, 88 percent of the cash distributed to state parties was quickly — within 48 hours — transferred to the DNC.

The same DNC whose chair, Debbie Wasserman Schultz, has long been all-in for Hillary, and whose treasurer is the Clinton campaign’s COO.

And the bulk of its outlays from these funds are Clinton-related, including advertising produced by Hillary’s ad people.

They barely even tried to hide the purpose: The fact that they named the fund-raising vehicle the Hillary Victory Fund was a pretty serious tip-off.

And, like every other Clinton fund-raising scheme, there’s a questionable gimmick involved: Giving to the Hillary Victory Fund allows well-heeled donors to give far more than they can legally donate to Clinton’s campaign directly.

[/dev/null]

I find it ironic that Sanders is criticizing the Hiliary Victory Fund as money laundering.

 

All Team Clinton is doing is pooling resources with other Democrats (who may not exactly want to participate) and disbursing according to need as determined by a central authority.

 

You know, kind of like what Bernie wants to do with the economy

“Malicious intent” is not required to break the law in Hillary Clinton’s case
by Jazz Shaw

 

Original Article

 

There’s a new trend in the mainstream media’s ongoing efforts to defend Hillary Clinton over her email scandal and you should be keeping your eyes open for more of it in the future. When the question first came up, most liberal outlets went through the usual stages of denial and accommodation. Initially it was all just some story cooked up by the Vast Right Wing Conspiracy. Then, when the private bathroom server turned out to be a reality which could no longer be denied, the story was that it was simply personal information or routine business with her staff, along with Chelsea’s wedding and baby shower plans which were none of our business. We all saw how the story morphed from that point on until it was painfully obvious that there had been Top Secret material left lying around on the server outside the control of the government.

So what’s the new approach to ensure that none of this could possibly indicate anything negative about the presumptive Democratic nominee? Well… even if she shouldn’t have done it, there clearly wasn’t any “malicious intent” on her part, as per the Washington Post.

Even if the laws were broken and intelligence data was either compromised or exposed to potential hacking, there’s really nothing to see here because, you guys… she didn’t mean for it to happen.

Unfortunately for Ms. Clinton and her apologists, her allegedly harmless intentions have nothing to so with it. We previously discussed the actual charges which Clinton could face, and intent doesn’t factor into the law.

So even if Hillary Clinton never “intended” for sensitive information to be exposed, keeping it outside of the normal storage and safeguards of the government is more than sufficient for a case to be prosecuted. But the fundamental premise of saying there was no malicious intent is still dishonest in and of itself. Whether she cared for it or not, Secretary Clinton was aware that there was a State Department email system in place and available for her use.

The lack of intent line is just a red herring. Prosecution under 18 USC 793 only requires that the information wind up being outside of its proper place of custody. You can argue the intent angle all the live long day but it doesn’t change the fact that the law clearly appears to have been broken. Whether the Justice Department (under the thumb of one of Clinton’s biggest campaign surrogates) decides to do anything about it is another question.
