Hillary’s Insulting Middle America Comments Already Turned Into Brutal Political Ad

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Well, that was quick. Hillary Clinton’s instantly infamous follow-up to the likewise infamous “basket of deplorables” comment has already been turned into a ready-made political ad against one of her fellow Democrats, who’s recently been trying to distance herself from the increasingly toxic twice-failed presidential candidate.

A new ad run by the likely opponent of Democratic Senator Claire McCaskell, Missouri Attorney General Josh Hawley, uses Clinton’s comments about “all that red in the middle where Trump won” she made at a conference in India last week to portray McCaskill as a Middle America-resenting elitist, like the woman she worked so hard to get elected president.

The ad opens with a teaser of Clinton’s remarks in front of audience in Mumbai, India on March 10: “If you look at the map of the United States, there’s all that red in the middle where Trump won,” says Clinton. . .

Clinton’s disparaging comments about Middle America aren’t the only ones she made during her trip to India that have spurred widespread condemnation. The would-be “First Woman President” also insulted women who voted for Trump, and women in general.

“We do not do well with white men and we don’t do well with married, white women,” Clinton said. “And part of that is an identification with the Republican Party, and a sort of ongoing pressure to vote the way that your husband, your boss, your son, whoever, believes you should.” (Read more from “Hillary’s Insulting Middle America Comments Already Turned Into Brutal Political Ad” HERE)

FINALLY: Even Democrats Are Now Sick and Tired of Hillary Clinton’s Loser Schtick

/0 Comments/in , /by

By The Daily Wire. Nearly 18 months after Hillary Clinton got crushed in the presidential election, she’s still on a worldwide tour to blame everything and everyone but herself.

We’ve lost count of all her foils, but here are some of the things and people Hillary blames: Former FBI director James Comey, Russia, computer bots, Wikileaks, Bernie Sanders, Facebook, Joe Biden, fake news, Twitter, voter ID laws, the vast right-wing conspiracy, sexism, Barack Obama, ageism, Anthony Weiner, white women, xenophobia, black people, the electoral college, the DNC, misogyny, women cowed by their husbands.

At a conference in Mumbai, India, she doubled down on that last claim. “We do not do well with white men and we don’t do well with married, white women,” she said. “And part of that is an identification with the Republican Party, and a sort of ongoing pressure to vote the way that your husband, your boss, your son, whoever, believes you should.”

Clinton also claimed that states that voted for her are more economically advanced than the states that backed President Trump — you know, where that “basket of deplorables” live.

But now, “Even the staunchest Clinton allies as well as longtime advisers say the comments were cringeworthy and ultimately detrimental to Democrats,” The Hill reported on Wednesday. (Read more from “FINALLY: Even Democrats Are Now Sick and Tired of Hillary Clinton’s Loser Schtick” HERE)

Dems Are Angry Over Hillary Clinton’s Latest Comments

By The Hill. Democrats are angry that Hillary Clinton continues to discuss what went wrong during the 2016 presidential election against President Trump.

Even some of Clinton’s own former aides and surrogates say the former Democratic presidential nominee should back away from the discussion about her failed campaign because it’s harmful to the party . . .

In interviews with The Hill on Tuesday, even the staunchest Clinton allies as well as longtime advisers say the comments were cringeworthy and ultimately detrimental to Democrats.

“She put herself in a position where [Democrats] from states that Trump won will have to distance themselves from her even more,” said one former senior Clinton aide. “That’s a lot of states.”

Another Clinton surrogate questioned the decisionmaking behind Clinton’s remarks. For months, some Democrats have been arguing that Clinton’s sentiments have been counterproductive to the party’s rebuilding efforts. And some have told her she should emulate former President Obama’s model to only make statements when it’s essential. (Read more from “Dems Are Angry Over Hillary Clinton’s Latest Comments” HERE)

Hillary Says This Is the Reason White Women Voted for Trump

/0 Comments/in , /by

By NTK Staff. Hillary Clinton said that white women voted for President Trump during the 2016 presidential election because their husbands told them to, during a discussion at the India Today Conclave on Saturday.

The moderator asked Clinton why she thinks almost 52 percent of white women voted for Trump, despite them knowing about the controversial “Access Hollywood” tape.

“[Democrats] do not do well with white men and we don’t do well with married, white women,” Clinton explained. “And part of that is an identification with the Republican Party, and a sort of ongoing pressure to vote the way that your husband, your boss, your son, whoever, believes you should.” (Read more from “Hillary Says This Is the Reason White Women Voted for Trump” HERE)

Hillary Clinton: U.S. Does ‘Not Deserve’ Trump

By CNN. Hillary Clinton told a receptive audience over the weekend in India that while she thought President Donald Trump played to some of Americans’ worst fears, he does not reflect the country as a whole.

“No, we did not deserve that,” Clinton said when asked if the US “deserves” Trump as its leader.

Clinton called the 2016 presidential race the “first reality TV campaign,” and said Trump, as a bombastic “reality TV candidate,” was able to win over enough of the audience to win the election. (Read more from “Hillary Clinton: U.S. Does ‘Not Deserve’ Trump” HERE)

FBI Informant Campbell Tells How Russians Bragged That the Clintons Would Deliver the Uranium Sale

/0 Comments/in , /by

The lawyer for FBI informant William Campbell said that her client has told congressional committees that the Russians “bragged that the Clintons’ influence in the Obama Administration would ensure CIFUS (Committee on Foreign Investments in the United States) approval for [the] Uranium One deal.”

And, added attorney Victoria Toensing, her client “was right.”

Before CIFUS, on which Secretary of State Hillary Clinton sat, approved the Uranium One deal, nine investors in Uranium One gave the Clinton Foundation a combined total of $145 million.

The deal called for the United States to allow Russia to purchase 20 percent of our uranium reserves, giving Russia access to vastly more uranium than we have.

Campbell testified that Russia’s goal was to achieve global hegemony over the supply of uranium.

The Russians sought the Uranium One deal very aggressively.

In the years before it came up for CIFUS approval, Russia deployed 10 spies in the United States with a single mission: To get close to Hillary Clinton to get her to approve the Uranium One deal.

Fortunately, the FBI uncovered the nest of spies one year before the deal came up for approval. (The Bureau acted to arrest the spies when it did because one of them had risen to a high position in a company owned by Hillary’s finance chairman.)

Then, to seal the deal, Russian dictator Vladimir Putin arranged for former president Bill Clinton to address the Renaissance Bank in Moscow, an institution closely connected to the Kremlin.

The ex-president was paid a fee (personal income for him and his wife, the secretary of state — in their joint checking account) of $500,000.

To try to keep word of the Uranium One deal under wraps and to bury the story about the Russian spies, FBI Director Robert Mueller arranged for the suspects to take plea bargains admitting to minor offenses and then spirited them out of the country quickly — in a prisoner exchange with Russia — before the media could interrogate them. The spies were arrested during the Labor Day weekend and sentenced over Christmas to minimize media coverage.

The Uranium One investigation has great salience in today’s news since the two attorneys who oversaw the investigation into the sale were current Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein and recently ousted Deputy Director of the FBI Andrew McCabe.

Mueller, as FBI director, was in ultimate charge.

Rosenstein and McCabe need to be investigated to determine if their handling of the Uranium One case was designed to shield Hillary.

Clinton’s role in the uranium sale only gained public notoriety after author Peter Schweizer exposed it in his 2015 book, “Clinton Cash.”

Dick Morris is a former adviser to President Bill Clinton as well as a political author, pollster and consultant. His most recent book, “Rogue Spooks,” was written with his wife, Eileen McGann.

Bernie Goes After Hillary and Her Involvement With Russia Meddling

/0 Comments/in , /by

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I., Vt.) said Wednesday that he did not know at the time that Russian trolls promoted his 2016 presidential campaign and wondered why Hillary Clinton’s team did not do more to tell voters about the extent of Russia’s election interference.

In addition to their well-known efforts to boost Donald Trump, Russian trolls supported Sanders’ presidential primary campaign, when he mounted a surprisingly strong but ultimately unsuccessful challenge to Clinton, according to special counsel Robert Mueller’s indictment from last week.

Mueller’s team indicted 13 Russian nationals and three companies for interfering in U.S. elections from 2014 to 2016.

In an interview on Vermont Public Radio, Sanders took issue with a listener’s question that made it seem as if he knew about Russian bots promoting his candidacy at the time he was running.

“If he was aware that Russians were trying to promote him and divide Democrats against Mrs. Clinton, why did he not communicate this to his supporters?” the listener asked Sanders. (Read more from “Bernie Goes After Hillary and Her Involvement With Russia Meddling” HERE)

Special Prosecutor, Grand Jury May Be in Hillary’s Future Given Recent Moves by AG Sessions, New Revelations

/0 Comments/in , , /by

By Politico. Attorney General Jeff Sessions is raising the possibility of naming a new special counsel to investigate potential wrongdoing by the Clinton Foundation, according to a letter the Justice Department sent Monday to House Republicans.

Sessions has asked top Justice Department prosecutors to look into a variety of allegations that have dominated conservative media outlets in recent months, including suggestions that a U.S. government panel approved the sale of a large uranium firm to Russian interests in exchange for donations to the foundation founded by Bill and Hillary Clinton, the letter to House members says.

“The Attorney General has directed senior federal prosecutors to evaluate certain issues raised in your letters,” Assistant Attorney General Stephen Boyd said in the letter obtained by POLITICO and sent to House Judiciary Committee Chairman Bob Goodlatte (R-Va.), among others.

“These senior prosecutors will report directly to the Attorney General and the Deputy Attorney General, as appropriate, and will make recommendations as to whether any matters not currently under investigation should be opened, whether any matters currently under investigation, require further resources, or whether any matters merit the appointment of a Special Counsel,” Boyd added.

Feds Face New Demands to Probe Hillary Clinton

By WND. . .Two new lawsuits have just been filed demanding answers from the “deep state bureaucracy” to a lot of questions about what went on under the Obama administration.

The lawsuits, one against the FBI and the Department of Justice, and another against the U.S. Department of Justice, the Department of State, the FBI and the Treasury Department, were filed by the public interest American Center for Law and Justice.

Citing “an all-too-familiar pattern and practice of failure by several federal bureaucratic agencies to comply with Freedom of Information Act requirements,” the ACLJ said it is suing to get the answers federal law requires those agencies provide.

“We are asking a federal court to order the agencies to issue determinations and produce documents responsive” to the ACLJ’s questions, the organization stated.

The complaints focus on the “sham Clinton investigation” concerning her use of an unauthorized and unsecured computer server for the nation’s classified secrets while Hillary Clinton was U.S. secretary of state, and the Uranium One scandal, when millions of dollars came from Russia to the Clinton Foundation just as she was on a committee authorizing Russian ownership of uranium assets.

Arkansas and the Clinton Connection

By Judicial Watch. Rumors have been floating up from Little Rock for months now of a new investigation into the Clinton Foundation. John Solomon advanced the story recently in a January report for The Hill. FBI agents in the Arkansas capital, he wrote, “have taken the lead” in a new Justice Department inquiry “into whether the Clinton Foundation engaged in any pay-to-play politics or other illegal activities while Hillary Clinton served as secretary of state.” Solomon reports that the probe “may also examine whether any tax-exempt assets were converted for personal or political use and whether the foundation complied with applicable tax laws.” Main Justice also is “re-examining whether there are any unresolved issues from the closed case into Clinton’s transmission of classified information through her personal email server,” Solomon notes.

Solomon is not alone. The Wall Street Journal is tracking the story. And earlier this month, investigative journalist Peter Schweizer cryptically told SiriusXM radio that federal authorities should “convene a grand jury” in Little Rock “and let the American people look at the evidence” about the Clinton Foundation.

Judicial Watch continues to turn up new evidence of Clinton pay-to-play and mishandling of classified information. In recent months, through FOIA litigation, Judicial Watch has forced the release of more than 2,600 emails and documents from Mrs. Clinton and her associates, with more to come. The emails include evidence of Clinton Foundation donors such XL Keystone lobbyist Gordon Griffin, futures brokerage firm CME Group chairman Terrence Duffy, and an associate of Shangri La Entertainment mogul Steve Bing seeking special favors from the State Department.

Radical Muslim Allowed in U.S. by Hillary Arrested for Rape

/0 Comments/in , /by

A prominent Muslim leader who for years had been denied entry to the United States because of possible terror ties until Hillary Clinton granted him special permission as an outreach to Muslims, now has been accused of rape.

Tariq Ramadan, the grandson of Muslim Brotherhood founder and Hamas founder Hassan al Banna, this week was denied bail by a judge in France.

Ramadan, a professor at Oxford University, was arrested in Paris last week and charged with raping two Muslim women. The first, a 40-year-old disabled Muslim convert, claims Ramadan raped and beat her in the southeastern city of Lyon in 2009. The other, a 41-year-old feminist activist, says Ramadan raped her in Paris in 2012.

Ramadan had been barred from entry to the U.S. along with sociologist Adam Habib.

The State Department explained at the time that both men presented a potential national security threat. (Read more from “Radical Muslim Allowed in U.S. by Hillary Accused of Rape” HERE)

Exposed: Top Dem Probing Trump Has Own Russia Secret

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Democrats long have claimed that it was the Trump campaign that was colluding with Russians to steal the 2016 election from their candidate, the now twice-failed Hillary Clinton.

The facts are that Clinton’s campaign paid an operative to get information from Russians to create a dossier of “dirt” on her political foe, Donald Trump.

Now another Democrat has been revealed as having texted many times with a lobbyist for a Russian oligarch as he tried to set up a meeting with ex-British spy Christopher Steele, who was funded by the Democrats while he wrote the dossier, which was used as evidence to get permission to spy on the Trump campaign.

Ed Henry at Fox News reports that there are text messages that reveal Sen. Mark Warner tried to set up that meeting.

Warner has “been leading a congressional investigation into President Trump’s alleged ties to Russia,” the report noted, even though he “had extensive contact last year with a lobbyist for a Russian oligarch who was offering Warner access to former British spy and dossier author Christopher Steele.” (Read more from “Exposed: Top Dem Probing Trump Has Own Russia Secret” HERE)

#Hillarygate: How the Clinton Machine Manufactured ‘Trump-Russia’

/0 Comments/in , /by

Hillary Clinton continues to emerge as the main facilitator for not only the research, but also the primary source information that was supplied to create the impression that President Trump was working with Moscow to defeat her electoral ambitions.

Certainly, we shouldn’t dismiss the role the Obama White House played in abusing surveillance powers to spy on American citizens without cause, but that’s a separate (and very important) issue. The government surveillance initiated against then-candidate Trump during the 2016 election would not have been possible had it not been for the work of several prominent figures linked to Hillary Clinton.

Here’s some of the evidence detailing how the Clinton machine manufactured Trump-Russia:

The First Dossier

We know with 100 percent certainty that the Hillary Clinton campaign and the DNC paid for the research that led to what is referred to in the media as the “Steele dossier.” This week, a Senate committee showed evidence not only that the Clinton campaign funded dossier development efforts, but also that Clinton associates were sources for Steele’s information.

On Monday, Republican senators revealed that Clinton operatives were used to substantiate information about candidate Trump’s supposed collusion with Russia.

“It is troubling enough that the Clinton Campaign funded Mr. Steele’s work, but that these Clinton associates were contemporaneously feeding Mr. Steele allegations raises additional concerns about his credibility,” Senators Chuck Grassley and Lindsey Graham wrote to the Justice Department Monday.

According to the Senate findings, the first dossier actually originated with a foreign source (that was likely based in Russia). That source then passed information to an associate of the Clinton family, who then turned it over to a State Department official, who then delivered that information to Mr. Steele.

The Second Dossier

Last week, we learned that a second Trump-Russia dossier was created by sources directly linked to Hillary Clinton.

The Guardian reported that Cody Shearer — who has served for decades as something resembling a private intelligence operative for Hillary Clinton — is the man behind the second dossier. The first dossier created a long trail of sources to unlink Hillary Clinton from its origins. The second one was reportedly created by someone who has answered to her family since 1992.

There are seemingly only two documents in the world that share the eye-catching allegations forwarded about President Trump: the two Trump-Russia dossiers. Given this fact, Hillary Clinton’s trusted confidants were all too likely much bigger players in the formulation and manipulation of the “Trump-Russia” narrative than the media and former administration officials have led us to believe.

Cody Shearer and Sid Blumenthal

More and more evidence continues to surface linking the two longtime Clinton family operatives with the creation of the Trump-Russia narrative that led to the Mueller investigation.

On Tuesday, Rep. Jim Jordan accused the two of being intimately involved in an attempt at “rigging the game” with collusion conspiracies.

Jordan said it appears “they paid Steele to put together the dossier and told him what to put in. Talk about rigging the game and putting together a document that will serve your purposes as an opposition research document.”

Hillary Clinton’s use of Shearer and Blumenthal is explored in her private email communications with the two. When Clinton served as secretary of state, she tasked Shearer and Blumenthal with running off-the-books intelligence operations on her behalf. Blumenthal, who has a reputation as a hatchet man, was likely forced into this unofficial position because he was responsible for spreading “birther” rumors about President Obama.

The Isikoff Article

According to the Nunes memo, the FISA application to spy on Carter Page “extensively” cited a 2016 article by Michael Isikoff of Yahoo News. His reporting made various claims about Page’s 2016 trip to Moscow. The memo confirms that Isikoff’s reporting is based on evidence supplied by Christopher Steele, who compiled the first “Trump-Russia” dossier.

But it gets worse.

Isikoff is closely connected to the DNC and is known to travel in the same circles as the individuals who compiled and financed the Trump-Russia dossiers.

Moreover, a Wikileaks release found that during the presidential election season, the DNC (which was controlled by the Clinton campaign) recruited Isikoff to dig up dirt on then-candidate Trump. It’s unclear whether Isikoff decided to team up with the DNC. However, just a few months following the DNC outreach, Isikoff published the Yahoo article.

Jonathan Winer

“Phase two” of House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes’ investigation involves the role that the State Department played in creating momentum for the Trump-Russia investigation.

Former State Department official Jonathan Winer is believed to be the person who established the connection between Christopher Steele and the Obama State Department during the 2016 campaign, according to reports in The Guardian and the Washington Post.

He is very well acquainted with key resources for the Trump-Russia dossiers. Conservative Review has found that in April, Winer attended the same highbrow, exclusive Miami intelligence conference alongside the heads of Fusion GPS, the firm that helped develop the Steele dossier.

Winer has been described as a “friend” of Steele’s. As the State Department’s former Special Envoy for Libya, he worked closely with Clinton operatives Cody Shearer and Sid Blumenthal, who were also tasked with creating Libya policy.

The bottom line

In her hell-bent quest to become president of the United States, Hillary Clinton pulled out all the stops to create a massive roadblock for Donald Trump’s electoral victory, using sketchy sources and foreign spies to do her dirty work. By all the evidence we have, her operatives manufactured the Trump-Russia narrative, just like they manufactured the Obama birther narrative.

FBI Knew About Hillary Emails for Entire Month Prior to Alerting Congress

/0 Comments/in , /by

By Fox News. Former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe knew of thousands of emails related to the Hillary Clinton private server investigation for at least a month before then-FBI Director James Comey informed Congress, The Wall Street Journal reported late Wednesday.

That lag is the subject of an investigation by Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz as part of a wider probe into the FBI’s actions prior to the 2016 election. The Washington Post was the first to report that McCabe was a focus of Horowitz’s investigation.

The timeline of when the emails were discovered on the laptop of former Democratic Rep. Anthony Weiner emerged in text messages between FBI officials Peter Strzok and Lisa Page, the Journal reported.

McCabe left his position Monday ahead of his planned retirement, effective March 18. The Post reported Tuesday that McCabe had met with FBI Director Christopher Wray to discuss the inspector general’s investigation prior to the announcement of his departure.

McCabe Was Aware of New Clinton Emails Month Before Congress Told

By WSJ. Top FBI officials were aware for at least a month before alerting Congress that emails potentially related to an investigation of Hillary Clinton had emerged during a key stretch of the 2016 presidential campaign, according to text messages reviewed by The Wall Street Journal.

FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe had learned about the thousands of emails by Sept. 28, 2016, and Director James Comey informed Congress about them on Oct. 28, 11 days before the presidential election, the messages show. Mr. Comey later said nothing in the new emails had changed the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s decision that Mrs. Clinton had committed no prosecutable offenses.

That lag is one focus of an investigation by the Justice Department’s inspector general, or in-house watchdog, into a variety of FBI actions in advance of the 2016 election, according to people familiar with the matter. Mr. McCabe stepped down this week, and FBI Director Christopher Wray in a note to bureau employees announcing Mr. McCabe’s departure also said he wouldn’t comment on the inspector-general probe. The Washington Post first reported the inspector general’s interest in the time lag.

Mr. McCabe has declined to comment on his departure and the inspector-general investigation. (Read more from “McCabe Was Aware of New Clinton Emails Month Before Congress Told” please click HERE)
