Admiral: Russia Blackmailed Bill Clinton Over Lewinsky (Adm Ace Lyons)
American Thinker ^ | Sierra Rayne

Posted on 05/18/2015 4:30:20 AM PDT by RoosterRedux

At the Iowa National Security Action Summit on Saturday, co-hosted by the Center for Security Policy and the Family Leader Foundation, Admiral James “Ace” Lyons (U.S. Navy, Ret.) -- a four-star admiral and former Commander in Chief of the U.S. Pacific Fleet, Senior U.S. Military Representative to the United Nations, and Deputy Chief of Naval Operations -- was speaking in the context of Hillary Clinton’s infamous e-mails when he made the following statement about Russia potentially blackmailing Bill Clinton over his affair with Monica Lewinsky:

One more thing I want to cover. Hillary's e-mails. Hillary, the pathological liar. Now, you gotta understand, you heard all about cyber warfare and so forth. Every one of our enemies, Russia, China, Cuba, Iran, everybody. They've hacked in to that unsecured server. She's totally compromised. She's damaged goods. There's no way she can be allowed to get in that White House.

I'll tell you one other thing. You know the Russians are the best in the world at this. They tapped in to Bill Clinton's phone lines and they knew about Monica long before you did. Now let me tell you the way they used it. Russia was in desperate financial shape. They needed 26 billion dollars out of the IMF. Larry Summers of our National Archives fame was our Treasury Secretary, dead set against it, everybody was set against it, until suddenly -- through Strobe Talbott -- who the Russians let Strobe know that they knew about Monica, Bill Clinton found it within himself to approve the transfer, and what got transferred was 4.6 billion dollars in hard cash that disappeared.

“He’s 87. He’s said some pretty outrageous things before. He seems to mix facts with his own opinions, so it’s hard to discern whether it’s all factual or not.”......

Your challenge...Prove him wrong.

Retired amidst controversy

Care to expound on that?

"Controversial" is one of the Left's favorite epithets.

Strobe Talbott. There’s a name to recall from the Clinton era. A Soviet fanboy from way back. The baby boomer’s Alger Hiss.

That was during the Reagan Administration. There are/were FReepers familiar with details, but here’s a snippet from ‘88.

B-B-B-B-But the Secret Service was protecting her e-mail servers. There is no way the Russians could have gotten to them.

Besides, she already carefully went through and deleted her personal e-mails and the other messages she sent out were sent to secure servers so they are still safe and secure!

"Ace" Lyons has no idea what he is talking about. Why, even George Stephanopoulos says Hillary did the right thing!

I hope he has some evidence to back this up.

So do I. If he does, this is DYNO-MITE! Someone needs to get this into the hands of Rush, Sean, O'Reilly and Megyn Kelly.

Even if he can’t prove it, and even if he is wrong.... GO AHEAD AND RUN WITH THIS. In politics bad publicity is a killer and many times the what is reported is not true or extremely skewed. This can hurt Hillary even if it can’t be proven. HELL, GO FOR IT!

Sound like “things I know versus things I can prove.”

I don’t believe it. If Russia really had influence over Clinton using the Lewinsky affair as leverage, he wouldn’t have trampled Russian national interests in the Balkans.

Our enemies know... so the only person Hillary is hiding from is us - Americans. ABC News will protect Hillary... just like they did with Monica, the 'credible rape' charge against Bill, and all the other lies...

I have no dislike of the Admiral. The question is, is he confusing Sandy Berger with “Larry Summers of our National Archives fame” in his quotes at the link. Perhaps you are aware of what fame Larry Summers has in connection with the National Archives?

I mention the Admiral’s background only in relation to whether he has current inside-the-government information, as a recently serving officer might.

It’s a short trip from bribery to extortion.

“I don’t believe it. If Russia really had influence over Clinton using the Lewinsky affair as leverage, he wouldn’t have trampled Russian national interests in the Balkans.”

Not necessarily. The Russian influence could have been used *before* the Drudge Report forced the old media to break the Lewinsky story.

The Balkans war was a result of the breaking of the Lewinsky story, many believe, so there would have been no influence once the story was already out.

Well said. Bitch Clinton covered up her actions, and now she should bear the risk-not the innocent people of the United States. And she should continue to bear those risks until she can prove that her taking the Oval Office will not leave herself open to blackmail when she made the country vulnerable to espionage.

I keep asking myself, "Why isn't the Clinton campaign over?" It's so obvious. If she won't recuse herself, the democrat party should. If they won't, the American people will. We can't take the national security risk.
