Fishy Or Not, Vince Foster's Death Matters by Daniel Clark For the purposes of this discussion, let's stipulate that all of the official findings about Vince Foster's death are correct. Let's agree that when Donald Trump referred to it as "fishy," it really was one of the more outlandish things he has said. Most of us aren't in a position to dispute the forensic evidence. Furthermore, motivational questions like why Foster drove to Fort Marcy Park to shoot himself, and why he would transport the gun to the park in an oven mitt, might have answers that were personal to...

... There doesn’t have to be smoke to give the appearance of fire at the Clinton Foundation. The sprawling charity has sucked in so much cash from so many sources that, with some creativity, it can be tied to virtually any skulduggery. Alleged wrongdoing at FIFA? There’s a Clinton tie. International arms dealers? The Kremlin? Uranium production? Human rights violators? Known felons? All can be connected to the Clintons. At a time when Democrats need to draw contrasts with Republicans by sticking up for the little guy, Clinton’s solicitation of — and favors for — the powerful make her an...

...In 1995, lawyers for the independent counsel asked Clinton who made the decision to fire the Travel Office workers. She answered, "Well, the best I know is David Watkins and Mark McLarty, I assume, based on what I have learned since and read in the newspapers." The lawyers asked if Clinton had any role in the firings. "No, I did not," she said. They asked whether she "had any input with either Mr. McLarty or Mr. Watkins as to that decision." She answered, "I don't believe I did, no." The First Lady's statements, under oath, were patently false. And indeed,...

An upcoming book by a longtime Democratic insider asserts that Sen. Hillary Clinton is “ethically unfit” to hold public office. The author of the book is Jerry Zeifman, who was counsel to the House Judiciary Committee for 17 years. He was chief counsel to the committee during the Watergate episode, a role he chronicled in an earlier book, “Without Honor: The Crimes of Camelot and the Impeachment of President Nixon.” Hillary was a committee staffer at the time. And Zeifman’s new book “Hillary’s Pursuit of Power” is based in large part on his personal experiences with Hillary. A press release...

Bolton Said to Orchestrate Unlawful Firing By CHARLES J. HANLEY, AP Special Correspondent 1 hour, 1 minute ago John R. Bolton flew to Europe in 2002 to confront the head of a global arms-control agency and demand he resign, then orchestrated the firing of the unwilling diplomat in a move a U.N. tribunal has since judged unlawful, according to officials involved. A former Bolton deputy says the U.S. undersecretary of state felt Jose Bustani "had to go," particularly because the Brazilian was trying to send chemical weapons inspectors to Baghdad. That might have helped defuse the crisis over alleged Iraqi...

Washington - The Republican-run Justice Department is setting its sights on Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton's 2000 Senate campaign in pursuit of possible fund-raising violations. In targeting a rising star in the Democratic Party, prosecutors are trying to gain the cooperation of an indicted businessman who raised the allegations, interviews and documents indicate. The FBI has told a U.S. magistrate in Los Angeles it has evidence the former first lady's campaign deliberately understated its fund-raising costs so it would have more money to spend on elections, and prosecutors allege one person raising funds for her helped because he wanted a pardon...

Posted on Thu, Apr. 24, 2003 Justice, FBI Settle Lawsuit With Agent WASHINGTON -The FBI and Justice Department have paid a retired FBI agent $85,000 to settle his lawsuit alleging that he was reassigned without justification and his reputation smeared during the Clinton administration, his lawyers said Thursday. Dennis Sculimbrene, who was the senior agent detailed to the White House during the Clinton years, said he was forced out of his job and into early retirement in 1996 during the FBI files affair. A memorandum he wrote years earlier appeared to tie Hillary Clinton to the hiring of Craig Livingstone,...

A third of New York Democrats are urging her to run. Polls suggest that she is the only candidate capable of defeating President George W. Bush at the ballot box. Among a growing number of her supporters, only one question matters: can Hillary Clinton be persuaded to rescue her party in the 2004 presidential race?   Mrs Clinton has insisted that she intends to see out her term as New York senator, which ends in 2006, before possibly running for the presidency in 2008. But following Al Gore's announcement last week that he will not run for the presidency a...
