Five Dirty Little Secrets About Hillary That the Media Isn’t Talking About

Members of the media—especially its liberal branch—like to brag about their tough coverage of Hillary’s e-mail scandal. And it’s true that over the past several months, some reporters have asked Hillary far sharper questions about her use of a private e-mail server than any query she faced at last week’s two-hour Cinderella-and-the-four–dwarfs Democratic debate.

But what these liberal reporters don’t say is that they’ve used the excuse of their e-mail focus to give Hillary a free ride on everything else that she’s done that is either unethical or illegal.

In fact, as Hillary prepares to testify this week before the Benghazi committee, newspapers, television, and news websites have been full of stories about how a revitalized Hillary has come through her e-mail ordeal undamaged and has suddenly become more relatable.

If reporters want to get serious about the Hillary stories that haven’t been getting the coverage they deserve, there’s a place they can turn to for help—my book, Unlikeable: The Problem With Hillary.

Here are five dirty little secrets about Hillary that I covered in my book and that the media isn’t talking about:

The Smoldering Gun: Even the most partisan skeptics on the Left agree that Hillary’s chances of becoming president would be radically reduced if a smoking gun could be found regarding her involvement with foreign donations to the Clinton Foundation. I interviewed three people who had firsthand knowledge of Hillary’s collusion with the foundation while she was secretary of state.

Bill Clinton’s Advice on How to Deal With Marco Rubio: During dinner with friends at the Clinton home in Chappaqua, N.Y., Bill Clinton singled out Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida as the Republicans’ greatest threat to Hillary. Bill pointed out that Rubio posed a generational challenge to Hillary and a challenge for the Hispanic vote. “We’ve got to destroy him before he gets off the ground,” Bill said.

How Chelsea’s Husband, Marc Mezvinsky, Takes Advantage of His Clinton Connection: Mezvinsky started raising money for his hedge fund, Eaglevale Partners, in 2011, barely a year after he married Chelsea. He met with a series of wealthy investors who had close ties to Bill and Hillary, including Lloyd C. Blankfein, the CEO of Goldman Sachs, which had paid Bill $1.35 million for eight speeches.

Hillary’s Health Issues: Hillary is plagued with frequent blinding headaches and is constantly worried that she is developing another blood clot on her brain. She is concerned about the trembling in her hands and suffers from insomnia. Bill believes she is in denial about her health and has urged her to travel with a full-time physician.

Hillary Ignores Obama’s Orders: President Obama knew from the beginning of Hillary’s tenure as secretary of state that she was a) using an unsecure private e-mail account; b) taking foreign donations for the Clinton Foundation; and c) in frequent touch with the detested Sidney Blumenthal. Through Valerie Jarrett, his senior political adviser, the president ordered Hillary to stop all three things, and she ignored him.

Valerie Jarrett’s Six-Pronged Investigation of Hillary: With President Obama’s approval, Valerie Jarrett ordered the State Department to launch six separate investigations of Hillary’s conduct as secretary of state, including the use of her expense account, her private e-mail system, and her collusion with the Clinton Foundation. The Obamas—Barack and Michelle—were obsessed with Hillary’s cascading e-mail scandal. They pressed Jarrett for information. They wanted to know everything—Hillary’s poll numbers, how she was coping, what Bill was up to, and how Hillary intended to escape from the e-mail trap of her own making.

A DIRTY LITTLE SECRET ABOUT HILLARY---How Chelsea’s Husband, Marc Mezvinsky, Takes Advantage of His Clinton Connection: Mezvinsky started raising money for his hedge fund, Eaglevale Partners, in 2011, barely a year after he married Chelsea. He met with a series of wealthy investors who had close ties to Bill and Hillary, including Lloyd C. Blankfein, the CEO of Goldman Sachs, which had paid Bill $1.35 million for eight speeches.

(SOB) Socialist Bernie Sanders is "for the people". At the debate, he regurgitated his disgust with Wall Street, and those he feels contribute to inequality in America. It was a real tear-jerker when "kindly compassionate" Bernie stoutly defended Hillary's criminality WRT her State Dept emails....as Hillary glowed w/ approval.

Looks like Bernie loves Hillary but hates Wall Street
hogging all the wealth leaving the working classes w/ nothing.

I JUST CAN'T WAIT Will be such fun to see Bernie defend THIS Hillary.

Then-US Sen Clinton and then-Sen Corzine on the Capitol steps.

EXHIBIT ONE Corzine was fresh out of Goldman Sachs executive suite, buying his NJ Senate seat office for $65 million; then buying the NJ governorship. Out of office, he ran a hedge fund where $1.5 B went missing....that employed both Bill Clinton and then-Secy of State Hillary's top aide Huma Abedin.

EXHIBIT TWO When Chelsea Clinton's husband started a hedge fund, he gained access to investors who had ties to the Clintons and to Goldman Sachs. Back in 2011, Mezvinsky, now 37, and two former Goldman Sachs'ers — Bennett Grau and Mark Mallon — began raising money for Mezvinsky's Eaglevale Partners LP hedge fund.

Some of Mezvinsky's investors included Goldman Sachs CEO Lloyd Blankfein. Blankfein, a slavish Democrat supporter, said he had "always been a fan of Hillary Clinton."

The WSJ reported extensively on the hedge fund's underperformance since its inception and Mezvinsky's mediocre investing and strategizing.

===========================================

There's a saying in Congress---"One hand washes the other." You vote for my bill; I vote for your bill.

So did Did Hillary vote for Corzine's legislation....giving tax breaks for a Japanese bank Corzine's "blind trust" owned?

EXHIBIT THREE Then-US Sen Jon Corzine (D-NJ), used his office to pass a special tax exemption for a Japanese bank he owned----his Goldman Sachs crony, Christopher Flowers---adminstrator of Sen Corzine's "blind trust"--- used Corzine's assets to takeover the Japanese bank.

LAUGH BREAK Corzine later said he "did not know" the legislation he sponsored "benefited" him.

================================================

So what other Wall Street deals did Corzine make w/ Hillary to enrich himself...and her?

"Bernie, I insist you go first."

ROTFLMAO.

WASH TIMES: Hillary began helping Bill's fat cats while in Senate... Favors to foundation donors stretch back to Hillary Clinton’s Senate days Earmarks, legislative action benefited husband’s benefactors / By Kelly Riddell - The Washington Times, 6/10/15

Hillary Rodham Clinton’s efforts to provide favors to major donors to her husband’s global charity or her own political career stretch back far earlier than her tenure as America’s top diplomat, dating to the time she served as a U.S. senator and had the power to earmark federal funds and influence legislation, records show.

For instance, Mrs. Clinton introduced a bill when she was New York’s junior senator that allowed a donor to the Clinton Foundation to use tax-exempt bonds to build a shopping center in Syracuse, New York, public records show.

She also went to bat for Freddie Mac, working to defeat legislation that would have subjected the mortgage giant to tougher regulations before the housing bubble burst and led to a major recession. That same year, Freddie Mac donated $50,000 to $100,000 to her husband’s charity, originally called the William J. Clinton Foundation records show.

Mrs. Clinton also used her leverage as a senator to help persuade the Chinese government to reduce tariffs on Corning Inc.’s fiber optic products. The central New York company’s employees and executives contributed hundreds of thousands of dollars to her campaigns and political action committee.

Analysts on political money have said the pattern of Mrs. Clinton’s intervention on behalf of donors to her husband’s charity raise troubling ethical questions. It seems like the Clinton Foundation operates as a slush fund for the Clintons,” Bill Allison, a senior fellow at the Sunlight Foundation, a government watchdog group, told the New York Post in April after conflict-of-interest reports started surfacing between the Clinton Foundation and Mrs. Clinton’s political work. Mr. Allison declined to be interviewed. --SNIP--
