Hillary Clinton Is Again Put on the Defensive Over Perceived Ties to Wall Street

MANCHESTER, N.H. — Hillary Clinton appeared frustrated.

Dozens of prominent economists and academic experts have endorsed her plans to regulate the financial sector. Her policies would “try to prevent the problems of the future,” she explained in Thursday’s debate, in addition to reining in “the excesses of Wall Street.”

So why do so many voters not believe it?

Throughout the debate, Mrs. Clinton found herself cornered by Senator Bernie Sanders and the moderators about her ties to Wall Street, the political contributions that have bolstered her campaign account, and the hundreds of thousands of dollars in paid speaking fees she received from Goldman Sachs and other financial firms in the months after she left the State Department.

Mrs. Clinton tried again and again to explain that her plans for Wall Street would be tougher and go further than Mr. Sanders’s proposals by also regulating the shadow banking industry, the insurance companies and other wrongdoers.

“I have a broader view,” Mrs. Clinton said, contrasting her plan to that of Mr. Sanders, whose anti-Wall Street message has turned him from a long-shot candidate to a serious contender for the Democratic nomination.

Sounds to me like these companies are trying to buy her.  Why else would they donate their money to her cause.  There is some interest there.  A bought politician is a corrupt politician.  Not what we need.

Hillary Clinton Has a Henry Kissinger Problem

At last night’s Democratic debate between Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders, Hillary Clinton invoked an unexpected figure: Henry Kissinger. “I was very flattered when Henry Kissinger said I ran the State Department better than anybody had run it in a long time,” she said, in an off-hand aside. It wasn’t an endorsement of Kissinger, or really much of anything. It was just a little brag that would have played well in a different room.

The sort of room it would have played well in, really, is the sort of room in which the worst people in the country congregate. The fact that Clinton lapsed into speaking as if she were in that room is more or less why she’s having trouble, once again, convincing the Democratic electorate to nominate her for the presidency.

Henry Kissinger, for the record, is a bad man, who waged a terrible and illegal war in Cambodia, supported a horrific right-wing strongman in Chile, and generally ran America’s foreign policy apparatus in the most amoral way possible, as a point of pride. However, in the bubble of elite American society, the bipartisan consensus, shared by politicians and members of the media alike, is that he’s simply a respected elder statesman.

The point I’m making here is not, [Glenn Greenwald voice] HILLARY CLINTON SUPPORTS A WAR CRIMINAL. (Trust me, I know Kissinger isn’t moving many votes in New Hampshire.) It’s that Hillary Clinton exists in a world where “Henry Kissinger is a war criminal” is a silly opinion held by unserious people. Her problem? Lots of those silly and unserious people want to wrest control of the Democratic Party away from its current leadership, which is exemplified by people like Hillary Clinton.

Bernie Sanders’ critique of Clinton is not that she’s cartoonishly corrupt in the Tammany Hall style, capable of being fully bought with a couple well-compensated speeches, but that she’s a creature of a fundamentally corrupt system, who comfortably operates within that system and accepts it as legitimate. Clinton has had trouble countering that critique because, well, it’s true. It’s not that she’s been bought, it’s that she bought in.

This isn’t some damning revelation of the secret “true” Clinton beneath the surface. Hillary Clinton is a liberal. (One problem afflicting our online discourse is that many of her dimmer fellow liberals in the press keep being baffled at Clinton opposition from leftists who extensively criticize the institutions of American liberalism. This is also why the Sanders-started semantic argument over the term “progressive” was so deeply stupid.) But she’s also plainly a member of a Democratic Party establishment that a large—and, I think, growing—number of would-be Democratic voters reject as unrepresentative of the principles and interests of non-wealthy Americans.

These people may indeed be “unserious,” in the sense that Clinton’s theory of “progressive change” is more realistic—that it, it has a better chance of leading to policy changes that have tangible positive outcomes for large groups of people—than Sanders’ theory of bottom-up “revolution,” at least in our current political climate. But no one is satisfied with the current political climate, and lots of people are looking for leaders who seek to fundamentally reshape it, not work within it.

A serious FELONY!

3. They allegedly have some relationship with Russia-
whether it is high priced speaking engagements via
state department aegis and hubby’s foundation, for
Russian audience, or just laying low there with no

4. One has the weight of the entire intel/USG against him

They need the money to make the campaign. They were all corrupted even the black asshole Obama with his ideas of communism.

[The Sceptical Chymist]

I lived thru Blowjob Bill's presidency, though I can't say I followed his every move or anything like that.  I never trusted Hillary.  Any woman who would let her man stick his dong in a thing like Monica Lewinsky would not get my vote.  That's a marriage of much convenience and it never sat well with me.

Agencies Battle Over What Is ‘Top Secret’ in Hillary Clinton’s Emails

WASHINGTON — Some of the nation’s intelligence agencies raised alarms last spring as the State Department began releasing emails from Hillary Clinton’s private server, saying that a number of the messages contained information that should be classified “top secret.”

The diplomats saw things differently and pushed back at the spies.

In the months since, a battle has played out between the State Department and the intelligence agencies — as well as Congress — over what information on Mrs. Clinton’s private server was classified and what was the routine business of American diplomacy, according to government officials and letters obtained by The New York Times.

At the center of that argument, the officials said, is a “top secret” program of the Central Intelligence Agency that is anything but secret. It is the agency’s long effort to track and kill suspected terrorists overseas with armed drones, which has been the subject of international debates, numerous newspaper articles, television programs and entire books.

The Obama administration’s decision to keep most internal discussions about that program — including all information about C.I.A. drone strikes in Pakistan — classified at the “top secret” level has now become a political liability for Mrs. Clinton’s presidential campaign.

Some of the skirmishes over Mrs. Clinton’s emails reflect the disagreements in a post-9/11 era over what should be a government secret and what should not. Nonetheless, 22 emails on Mrs. Clinton’s server were held back from a tranche made public last week. Those 22 emails were deemed so highly secret that State Department officials in this case agreed with the intelligence agencies not to release them even in redacted form.

The emails are included in seven distinct chains that comprise forwarded messages and replies, and in most cases involved discussions of the C.I.A. drone program, government officials said.

Christina Aguilera is back!
The singer returns as a judge for the upcoming tenth season of The Voice.
And despite a new report that Xtina rubbed her fellow coaches Blake Shelton, Adam Levine and Pharrell Williams the wrong way at the promo photo shoot for the show, I'm told everyone is getting along quite nicely.
The tabloid tale claims that Aguilera was acting like a diva and showed up late to the shoot with celeb photographer David LaChapelle.
"Everyone was excited for the shoot," a source tells me. "Christina had a great time with David and even shot extra singles as she loved him and the whole concept."

‘5-car pileup’: Iowahawk senses Hillary’s campaign desperation [Vine]

Twitchy  by Doug Powers 3:22 pm

At the latest Democrat debate, Hillary Clinton caused some head scratching when she said “I don’t want to just stop bad things from happening, I want to start good things from happening.”

It sounds like she’s worked out the kinks and fixed the line, but it still doesn’t come across very well, as Iowahawk points out:

I can't believe she isn't winninghttps://t.co/2NEiHPYXKJ

— David Burge (@iowahawkblog) February 8, 2016

Combine everything and we get…

It's like a 5-car pileup of ambition, greed, entitlement, fear, and desperationhttps://t.co/2NEiHPYXKJ

— David Burge (@iowahawkblog) February 8, 2016

That speaks volumes. For starters:

"Start good things happening again in America," she says with questionable diction. So the past eight years sucked? https://t.co/Kbs4z9SWZN

— Kevin Kim (@bighominid) February 8, 2016

Now, there's a bold plan. Nice she's admitting that Obama's a total failure, as a bonus. https://t.co/aaXIy8jXcQ

— Dan Phillips (@BibChr) February 8, 2016

Hillary’s promising to be an extension of the Obama administration, except with “good things” this time?

@iowahawkblog
That's nice, Hillary.
Which nominee believes we SHOULDN'T start good things happening in America?

— BobbyDeFaro (@AlrightOnDNite) February 8, 2016

…by "good things" she means getting that Clinton Cash rolling in again. I believe.@iowahawkblog

A start of good things happening in America would be her in an orange jumpsuit. https://t.co/jeprdAUJkF

Bill Fucking Clinton Accuses Bernie Supporters of Sexism

Allie Jones
2 minutes agoFiled to: BILL CLINTON

Bill Clinton has decided to start attacking his wife’s opponent for the Democratic nomination for president, since that worked so well eight years ago. At a rally in New Hampshire on Sunday, Bill mocked Bernie Sanders’s desire for “revolution” and accused Sanders supporters of sexism.

Per the New York Times, Clinton portrayed Sanders as “hypocritical, ‘hermetically sealed’ and dishonest” in a speech to Hillary supporters. “When you’re making a revolution you can’t be too careful with the facts,” he said. Then he fully embraced the “Bernie Bro” narrative:

...Mr. Clinton’s most pointed remarks may have been when he took aim at Sanders supporters who, he said, use misogynistic language in attacking Mrs. Clinton. He told the story of a female “progressive” blogger who defended Mrs. Clinton online through a pseudonym because, he said, the vitriol from Mr. Sanders’s backers was so unrelenting.

“She and other people who have gone online to defend Hillary, to explain why they supported her, have been subject to vicious trolling and attacks that are literally too profane often, not to mention sexist, to repeat.” Mr. Clinton, growing more demonstrative, added that the liberal journalist Joan Walsh had faced what he called “unbelievable personal attacks” for writing positively about Mrs. Clinton.
True as these claims may be, Bill Clinton—you know, the guy who screwed his intern—is probably not the right guy to be making them. It’s also not hard to remember what happened when Bill attacked Barack Obama in 2008, calling his campaign “the biggest fairytale I’ve ever seen.” Video of Bill delivering that choice comment was all over the news for weeks, and it didn’t do much to actually help Hillary’s campaign. The Clinton campaign is lucky no video of Bill’s attack on Sanders has surfaced yet—though maybe that’s exactly why they had the former president making a campaign appearance at a small New Hampshire middle school.
