Bill Clinton has made a mess. It was either out of foolish indifference or plain foolishness, but it has created a terrible moment for his wife and the Democrats, and for President Obama and perceptions of the integrity of his administration. [Snip] The meeting has provided fodder for Donald Trump and Republican leaders to cast doubt on whatever conclusions the career prosecutors and Comey come to. Trump called it "so horrible" and said he was "flabbergasted" by the reports of it. On Friday, he questioned the description of the conversation that took place. "I love my grandchildren so much," he...

EXCLUSIVE: Security Source Details Bill Clinton Maneuver to Meet Loretta Lynch Former president delayed Phoenix takeoff to snare '20-25 minute encounter' with Attorney General An exclusive interview with a security source who was present at the unplanned meeting Monday night on a Phoenix tarmac between former President Bill Clinton and Attorney General Lorretta Lynch has shed additional light on an unusual summit that is embroiling the AG in charges of favoritism. As attorney general, Lynch heads the Department of Justice just as it is deciding whether to proceed with charges against Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton over her use of...

A big part of politics is appearances and perceptions. If something looks bad, people will likely conclude it is bad — even if there's no actual evidence or proof of its relative badness. Politicians know this; it's why they don't wear funny hats or get in tanks (anymore). And it's why Bill Clinton and Attorney General Loretta Lynch should have known better when they huddled privately at the Phoenix airport earlier this week. Lynch is the nation's top cop and, as such, oversees the FBI, which is conducting an investigation into whether Hillary Clinton or any of her associates broke...

Back in April, Slate’s Michelle Goldberg offered the Hillary Clinton campaign some sage advice: “Fire Bill Clinton.” The Clinton campaign declined to take her suggestion, but perhaps they should give it another look. Bill Clinton is one of the most talented politicians of the past century, but his supposedly infallible skills continue to fail him when put in the service of someone other than himself. On Monday, Clinton was on a tarmac in Phoenix when he learned that the attorney general, Loretta Lynch, would soon be on the same tarmac. He delayed his flight so he could try to meet...

We have all heard of Hillary's famous temper which got me thinking about how she is reacting to Bill's blunder.

Today, Trump accused Bill Clinton and the Attorney General Loretta Lynch of ‘showing bad judgment’ because of a meeting they had together. Trump questions this meeting because Hillary Clinton is under federal investigation — and Loretta Lynch decides her fate. The stealthy meeting took occured on Loretta’s jet after landing in Arizona Monday night. It worked out great for them, since Bill was leaving the airport from Hillary’s rally that day. During the town hall meeting by Mr. Donald Trump today in Manchester, he told Mike Gallagher (a talk show host) that the meeting was proof that the United States...

BEGIN TRANSCRIPT RUSH: Well, we're gonna kick off today with competing polling data. We have a surprise visit by Bill Clinton to the attorney general in a private plane on the tarmac at Phoenix. If it hadn't been for a local Phoenix ABC affiliate, we wouldn't know that it had happened. We got Obama going off on Trump in a rant supposedly against populism and so forth. And Jake Tapper, CNN, actually described it as Trump living rent free in Obama's head. So yet again, ladies and gentlemen, another unique usage of language started on this program finding its way...

Attorney General Loretta Lynch met with former President Bill Clinton for a half-hour on her government airplane at the Phoenix airport on Tuesday, an Arizona news station is reporting.The unannounced meeting, which comes as Lynch’s Justice Department is investigating the handling of classified information on Hillary Clinton’s private email server, came to light only when Phoenix’s ABC15 TV station asked Lynch about it during a press conference.The Obama appointee told the TV station that she and Clinton did not discuss the investigation or any other government business. Instead, she says they talked about Clinton’s grandchildren and golf.“I did see President...

Don't worry. There is nothing wrong here He came over and said hello. He talked about his grandchildren and his travels. He never brought up the Hillary investigation. Hey, everything Bill Clinton does is legal and above board. So when he just happens to show up on the tarmac where the private plane of the attorney general - who by the way is investigating his wife for possible felonies involving national security breaches - the fact that he just happened to board the plane and talk to her for more than half an hour shouldn’t raise an eyebrow for you...

Attorney General Loretta Lynch described her Monday meeting with Bill Clinton aboard a private plane as “primarily social,” but even Democrats are struggling to stomach the optics of the attorney general’s meeting with the former president while his wife is under federal investigation. Lynch said she and Clinton talked only of grandchildren, golf, and their respective travels, but the fact that the two spoke privately at all was enough to rekindle concerns about a possible conflict of interest. Republicans have long called into question the ability of a Democratic-led Department of Justice to conduct an independent investigation into Hillary Clinton’s...

Ah! When you have a private jet and lots of money to golf anywhere in the country, the first place that would leap to mind would be Phoenix, AZ which has been in the news lately for its blazing heat wave. Yesterday over 100 degrees which is when Bill Clinton claimed to have golfed before meeting up with AG Loretta Lynch at the airport tarmac. Okay, so my question is WHAT is the name of the golf course that Clinton played Heat Wave golf at? He must love that sweltering heat! If you find the answer, please post here.

PHOENIX - Amid an ongoing investigation into Hillary Clinton's use of email and hours before the public release of the Benghazi report, US Attorney General Loretta Lynch met privately with former President Bill Clinton. The private meeting took place on the west side of Sky Harbor International Airport on board a parked private plane. Former President Clinton was visiting the Phoenix area and arrived to Sky Harbor Monday evening to depart. Clinton was notified Lynch would be arriving at the airport soon and waited for her arrival. Lynch was arriving in Phoenix for a planned visit as part of her...

US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was taunted by chants of “Monica, Monica” by tomato-throwing demonstrators as she visited the Egyptian port city of Alexandria today. Christian activists called for a major protest against the US Secretary of State. They believe the Obama Administration sided with the Islamists in Egypt in recent elections. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=axM5kGdH_so http://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2012/07/egyptian-protesters-chant-monica-monica-as-hillary-clinton-drives-by-video/

The Clinton Administration could literally commit as many crimes as they wanted because a sycophantic media was providing cover for them. Here are a few their corrupt dealings. The Larry Lawrence Affair Creating bogus national parks, selling missile secrets, with Clinton you name it -- EVERYTHING was for sale. Sadly this even included a burial plot in Arlington National Cemetery where only America’s military heroes are supposed to be laid to rest, unless of course you are a lying, Democrat contributor. In 1996 Clinton saw to it that a Democrat fund raiser with a fraudulent war record was buried in...

"She's petrified because she doesn't want to go to jail." Remember the embarrassingly schmaltzy 60 Minutes segment in which Obama and Hillary sat down with a swooning Steve Kroft and talked about what wonderful friends they had become? It was about the biggest load of crap I’ve ever seen on a show that specializes in it, and Kroft must have felt like one of those corporate PR guys who records a video “interview” with the CEO that’s completely scripted and consists of nothing but softballs. It was all part of a very determined effort following the bitter primary campaign of...

There is no politician in recent memory who seems more a product of her handlers than Hillary Clinton. But her handlers in 2008 did hardly anything for her, and now you wonder if the reinforcements she’s brought in this time are doing any better, or giving her better advice. Because all she continues to do is serve this whole thing up for Donald Trump. The other day she said that she was going to ask Bill Clinton to help her with the economy. She did this in a political season when Trump has sold himself two ways, apart from walls...

Sunday at a campaign event in East Los Angeles Former President Bill Clinton’s speech was interrupted by a screaming group of Bernie Sanders’ supporters. Once Clinton regained control of the room, according to Fox News’s Fin Gomez, Clinton responded, “If I were them, I’d be screaming too because they know they will be toast by election day.” Bill Clinton’s wife, Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, has been locked in a bitter battle for the all-important win in the California Primary on Tuesday. At another campaign event for Hillary Clinton over the weekend, New Jersey Senator Cory Booker also took...

Hillary Clinton's brother-in-law is sitting in a jail cell after getting busted for DUI in Southern California ... just 2 days before the crucial CA primary vote.

Former President Bill Clinton told a New Jersey crowd Wednesday that non-college educated whites “need to be brought along to the future.” Mr. Clinton campaigned for his wife in Crandford by tearing into Republican presidential hopeful Donald Trump’s comments on illegal immigration. He then implied that Mr. Trump’s supporters cling to a vision for America that is better left in the past. “We have been told over and over again in this election we ought to build a wall against Mexico, we ought to stop the Muslims from coming in, we want to do all this stuff,” Mr. Clinton said,...

Hillary hopes you have forgotten. Have you???? Hillary Clinton has been telling America that she is the most qualified candidate for president based on her "record," which she says includes her eight years in the White House as First Lady - or "co-president" - and her seven years in the Senate. Here is a reminder of what that record includes: - As First Lady, Hillary assumed authority over Health Care Reform, a process that cost the taxpayers over $13 million. She told both Bill Bradley and Pat Moynahan, key votes needed to pass her legislation, that she would "demonize "anyone...
