Of course.
As soon as James O’Keefe released the video and Rob and I discussed putting something together about it, we figured this was going to happen. A man closely associated with the Clinton campaign and the DNC - not knowing he’s being recorded, of course - admits that Hillary is illegally giving orders for idiotic hijinks to go on at Donald Trump rallies. The point is not how stupid the whole Donald Duck thing is (and it’s very stupid indeed). The point is that a candidate cannot be giving orders to a Super PAC to do things.
That’s a felony violation of campaign law. It’s the sort of thing that, once it’s known, becomes a major scandal and a huge news story. It dominates the morning shows. It brings legal experts onto the afternoon shows to discuss what this means for the election. Its the biggest headline of the month - candidate implicated in felony.
America no longer has a news media.
Exactly! It's been very frustrating reading a lot of the comments around here on threads about this video by people claiming the whole thing was a big fat nothing. Who cares about ducks? It's about Hillary illegally coordinating the activities of a Super PAC. That's the point...not the damned duck. When I read some of the comments i understood that if many Freepers didn't get it there would be little chance of the typical voter getting it either.
Bookmarking this.
Also criminal is the mishandling of classified information and letting the guys at Benghazi die.
I agree, it’s pretty sad isn’t it? People just don’t get it and neither does the media.
“The point is that a candidate cannot be giving orders to a Super PAC to do things.”
All true, but the real point is, this is inside baseball...and insider trading type felony. This has no connection whatsoever to voter’s lives. A felony that matters far less than even the felonies regarding classified information - which might well have an impact but we can’t yet sense how much. This one will get subsumed under “games politicians play”.
Like everyone else, I am staggered at the blatant criminal behavior by “important” political figures. They can seemingly do anything with impunity and the media will maintain perfect silence.
You know, the old Clinton Death List always had a slight crackpot flavor to it. I actually believe that the Clinton’s have left a long bloody trail behind them (including Vince Foster) but I don’t mention that to people because you just end up sounding like a lunatic.
“You know, the Clinton’s have had hundreds of people killed ...”
“Uh huh. You’re a nutjob.”
But you look around now and you see how blatant the felonies are. It’s not like a quiet suicide in a dark park at night. It’s people on video. It’s verified emails. It’s thousands of documents proving criminal activities. And you say:
“The Clinton’s are criminals.”
“Uh huh. You’re a nutjob. The media doesn’t talk about it, so it never happened.”
American media must pay for their corruption.
It’s very sad. There are millions of classrooms of upper elementary students, middle schoolers, etc, learning about our election process and following most of the coverage, but would these teachers ever say ONE OF THE CANDIDATES HAS BEEN IMPLICATED IN ELECTION FRAUD, WHICH IS A FELONY?
It’s not on the news, and it’s not in the classroom, so our children can’t keep us honest by asking us why Clinton is allowed to run freely when she is clearly a criminal?
We live in a totalitarian oligarchy. It is very very depressing.
Most of us here in this little bubble DO get it. Most of us have known Hillary is committing felonies and even murder to get her way and always has been. But if no one ever tells the American people where they are, on something they will see, they won’t buy it and/or understand it.
And they are taught not to trust racist republicans.
Our press is so corrupt they don’t give a damn if democrats break the law...
America hasn’t had a news media since, oh, the 1930s at the very least:
They were in the tank for Stalin and Roosevelt.
They just haven’t had to deal with any significant exposure or competition until relatively recently.
Journalist - so-called - are overwhelmingly leftists, and leftists live and breathe propaganda.
That is the purpose of the Anti-Conspiracy Conspiracy:
To make any suggestion of an actual conspiracy seem ludicrous, and the suggester seem paranoid.
Conspiracies are natural and common. Most are relatively minor and innocuous, but the ones perpetrated at the highest levels of government are ruthless and destructive.
Nota bene: Every back-room deal is a conspiracy. Every one. Every buried news story is a conspiracy. Every one.
