The Democrats Have Chosen A First Class Crook As Their
Presidential Candidate
The Presstitutes tell us that the best choice for
President of the United States is a partner in a crime syndicate that parleyed
favors while in office into a $1.6 billion private foundation and a $120
million private fortune. So far have we fallen. Who will be Hitlery’s
successor, Caligula?

Latest Hillary Email Scandal Revelation
by Stephen Lendman
Hillary lied about not having classified State Department
material on her personal home server. She lied about turning over to the State
Department all emails relating to agency business.
On Monday, the FBI announced discovery of 15,000
previously undisclosed emails. Some are personal. Others show foreign officials
sought favors in return for large Clinton Foundation donations.
Judicial Watch (JW) president Tom Fitton asked “(w)hen
will State release them? It looks like the State Department is trying to
slow-roll the release of the records. They’ve had them for at least a month,
and we still don’t know when we’re going to get them.”
A Monday court hearing was held to rule on a release
schedule. The same day, JW said it “released 725 pages of new State Department
documents…”
They “includ(e) previously unreleased email exchanges
in which former Hillary Clinton’s top aide Huma Abedin provided influential
Clinton Foundation donors special, expedited access to the secretary of
state.”
“In many instances, the preferential treatment
provided to donors was at the specific request of Clinton Foundation executive
Douglas Band.”
New documents include 20 Hillary email exchanges not
previously turned over to State – 191 so far known excluded from 55,000 emails
released.
More than a dozen newly released email exchanges show
foreign officials donated millions of dollars to the Clinton Foundation and the
Clinton Global Initiative to gain State Department access – part of the
Clintons’ pay-to-play scheme dating from when Bill was president.
JW was blunt saying what’s known to date
“contradict(s) statements by Clinton that, ‘as far as she knew,’ all of her
government emails were turned over to the State Department.”
How much more official agency business material
remains undiscovered, including easily hacked classified documents?
In one message exchange, Clinton Foundation’s Doug
Band emailed Abedin, her deputy chief of staff at State and presidential
campaign co-chair, about a “good friend of ours,” Bahrain’s crown prince Salman
“asking to see her” in June 2009.
He couldn’t arrange a meeting through normal channels,
had to go through the Clinton Foundation instead. JW’s Fitton explained he
donated over $32 million to the Clinton Global Initiative from 2005 – 2010.
Bahrain made separate donations to the Clinton Foundation.
Fitton said this case (and numerous others like it)
raise “the question whether public office was illegally used to benefit a
private entity or private individual.”
In her June deposition to JW, Abedin said part of her
job at State was taking care of “Clinton family matters.”
Apparently she served as gatekeeper for who got access
to Hillary at State in return for large donations to the Clinton Foundation and
Clinton Global Initiative – clear pay-to-play chicanery, corruption by any
standard.
Hillary remains unaccountable. This and numerous other
examples of how she operates illegally show she’s unfit to hold any public
office, especially the nation’s highest.
