“They are very nervous about an American policy change, and so they are betting on the horse they think will win — Hillary Clinton,” said Ali Al-Ahmad, a Saudi analyst with the Institute for Gulf Affairs, and a frequent critic of the regime, about the hiring of the Podesta Group.

Have at it, folks. Norm Coleman, of MN...

NOTE: Hogan Lovels is a partner of Albright Stonebridge Group. If Norm Coleman has a financial interest in driving a Saudi pipeline up through Syria and Donald Trump threatens that, then wouldn't he be tempted to mess with the GOP monies? http://www.hoganlovells.com/en/norm-coleman

There is no doubt in my Military Mind that NO member of our current UniParty is above reproach.

Drain The Swamp, Mr. Trump!

I need more information in order to make a comment. I would have no doubt that some Republicans would be in on this. We call them the establishment.

I have no doubt that plenty of Republicans are just as crooked as Democrats. I say let it all out and let the chips where they may be.

Save the names. Looks like Sid Vicious Blumenthal wasn’t the only maggot interested in the corpse of Libya. “We came, we saw, he died,” and then she laughs like no Hollywood villain could ever simulate. All bought and paid for, and she’s one election away from the Presidency, God help us.

Seriously?

There's only one GRAVY TRAIN, and the uniparty is ONBOARD.
