Hillary Clintons second race for the presidency is only about a quarter through, but she already seems to be causing general fatigue.
The lurid revelations about the Clinton Foundation proved that it was not so much a charity as a huge laundering operation. Quid pro quo donations from the global rich and powerful fueled the Clintons jet-setting networking.
In between political campaigns, the foundation provided sinecures for out-of-work Clinton politicos. This is hardly proof of Hillarys grass-roots progressivism.
Then came Clintons e-mail fiasco. No one knows how the current investigation of her alleged misuse of e-mail accounts, servers, and classified information will end up. But most people accept that it was an unnecessary and self-induced scandal, brought on both by her paranoia and habitual expectation of being exempt from the law.
ABC News just disclosed that ex-president Bill Clinton sought huge speaking fees from foreign governments (well over a half-million dollars per talk), while Hillary was secretary of state. Unfortunately, some of his proposed speaking deals involved odious regimes like those of Congo and North Korea. This year, Hillary herself routinely charged universities $200,000 to $300,000 for brief talks after decrying the cash-strapped status of indebted students. What will the Clintons not do to make money?
All these imbroglios raise more issues. Was Senator Barack Obama, largely a political unknown at the time, really all that unstoppable in 2008? Or did Hillary simply blow a 30-point lead in the polls because then as now she proved a lousy candidate?
Cant Hillary Clinton turn voters attention to her recent stewardship of American foreign policy?
Most of what happened on her watch as secretary of state is better forgotten: the destruction of a self-reliant Iraq, the rise of the Islamic State, chaos in Libya, failed reset with Russias Vladimir Putin, disaster in Benghazi, the alienation of Israel and moderate Arab nations, and Irans ascendant.
Instead of hailing her foreign-policy tenure, Clinton is now attacking her critics.
Clinton just blasted her Republican opposition, some of whom want various federal agencies to cite undocumented immigrants who broke federal law, and then process them for deportation before hearing their applications for amnesty. She misleadingly equated that position with wanting to literally pull people out of their homes and their workplaces, round them up and, I dont know, put them in buses or boxcars, in order to take them across the border.
Is it wise to tar critics with the infamous imagery of the Holocaust, in which Jews were rounded up, put in boxcars and sent to death camps?

Paraphrasing VDH ....lurid revelations indicate the Clinton Foundation is a huge money-laundering operation fuelling the Clintons affluent lifestyle and their political ambitions.....with well-paid sinecures for the hydra-headed Clinton retinue flitting around w/ scads of money. The serial cover-ups and financial legerdermain are the result of greed and the Clintons naked buck-raking.......
REFERENCE When he finally went to jail, investigators found Ponzi king, Bernie Madoff, had stashed billions offshore---into a labyrinth of financial entities. Some $8.9 billion was funneled through a dozen so-called funds based in Europe, the Caribbean and Central America......a labyrinth of hedge funds, management companies and service providers that was structured to look like perfectly legal.
Although he was jailed in the Ponzi scheme, Madoff's usefulness was helping billionaires and their tax-exempt foundations to launder money and evade taxes.
Surely the Clintons' took notes.
Time to look at the Clintons money-laundering operation. When L/E looked at Jeffrey Epstein's Orgy Island pedophile case, they found Bill Clinton and pal Doug Band w/ 20 phone nos and email addresses. L/E recognizes this as a classic money-laundering MO.
Bill Clinton was an inveterate globe-trotter w/ do-goodism as his passport to the world.....secret accounts, business interests, and other evidence of money laundering, must be everywhere.
Course, dear. dear Lanny Davis is still the true believer.
The aide will plead the fifth and Hillary will probably be downing one.
Hillary will eventually drop out of the race due to “medical” reasons.........
I don’t get it... usually criminal activity is a resume enhancer for Democrats. Actually, I think this is happening a little too soon. It still gives the Dems time to rally around another candidate.
they gott’a FIND one, first !
Will Hillary Clintons Emails Burn the White House?
If she did what strong evidence leads me to believe she did, her stay in prison should be a temporary and brief layover on her way to the gallows.
LOL! “The little train that couldn’t!” Brought to you from the minds of adoring media sycophants. They also brought us the story, “The Queens New Pantsuit”.
Same as the situation with the pathetic Rick Perry who's about to drop out of the race. Who's gonna vote for a guy with no eyes!!!

Right after 100 mil transfers from the Clinton Global Initiative to the Baraq Obmama Foundation.
I think you are correct. Right now, Obama owns Clinton. He has got her by the balls (yuck, what an image) and she will have to do whatever he says. My guess, some sort of health problem that will allow her to gracefully get out of the race. Then Joe Biden with Elizabeth Warren, the hope being that Biden will be a one term president and succeeded by Warren.
You said it ALL.
I am shocked after yesterday’s airing of her emails, that there is no effort and no call to muster a grand jury!
This is shocking and inexcusable, if there is a shred of justice left in the land. The nasty GOP are quiet as mice, without even the conservatives on the hill coming forth with demands.
Democrats would NEVER be seen slinking off to the shadows and corners, boldly missing a chance to strike, but these serpents of ours in the GOP are just beneath the earth in their abdication of duty.
Thanks Liz.
That ougha show them conservatives really are kind and compassionate (/snix).

Unfortunately, there’s no shortage of moonbats.
It's all over
Cal can't rally enough because of the sanctuary city murder of san francisco and there's no other large, electoral college votes state on election night moving west
I'm open for discussion on this one
