The video that I posted came out just after the event, which I think was in October of 2016. And, I do remember the media really slamming Matt Lauer for his not being nice to Hitlary.

So glad Donald Trump won the election.

Ancesthntr's comment has a lot of logic to it.
Your's has NO named sources and only speculation.
Now let's review a few pieces of history, such as: Now based on the articles linked above, I propose to you that it is VERY POSSIBLE AND CREDIBLE
On the other side of the issue is: Now, I trust former Senator Jim DeMint, and I trust Rush and Glenn.
But all former Senator Jim DeMint has is the document he was shown and briefed upon, and they came from a corrupted agency under Obama and his minions.

In closing, let me make it clear that

I'm unsure of what "event" precisely you've mentioned, and need confess here that I went to the video, but did not watch but a minute or two, thinking I'd seen it before.

I'd been under the impression that the "we'll all hang" comment came about during an election night meltdown. That's looking like it was mistake on my part. Thank you for the note of clarification.

I'll look again at the video, and search out the quote itself, in hope of seeing better what you are saying here.

Regardless, if the info is accurate, I would like to see it come bobbing up to the surface, like an iceberg that was stuck on the bottom of the ocean, but once free of anchoring constraint --- woops! there it is! Wouldn't that be nice?

It in the least it would entertaining watching lamestream drive-by media types squirm in their seats when trying to melt the iceberg with their tiny little torches held up like lit cigarette lighters at a rock concert (that had some really bad music coming from center stage!)

That was not exactly tied to the "if he's elected 2we'll all hang comment was it? But for other criticisms, I seem to recall. It does set me to thinking though...Matt...could maybe enjoy having something break (that he could hammer home upon, just a bit) to vindicate himself, and silence the chattering-class, know-it-all lefty critics? He'd like to be able to sit, and glare at them? hehhehh (that's deliciously evil, I admit it!)

Yes, thank God for answered prayers. I don't care how "imperfect" the man is. Perfect is too much to ask from any human. Jesus is a tough guy to have to follow?

Trump has been doing just fine, as far as I'm concerned. Just look at what he's had to deal with. People. Wherever you have people, you're going to have problems. And boy howdy, they've been huckin' 'em at his head from BEFORE Day One.

I can see your point but I disagree. The world under Obama was stable in the sense that it was a slow and gradual decline of US influence. A Clinton presidency would have been a continuation of the same. Believe me, Putin and the Russian ruling class are fully capable of doing very well in such an environment. Just remember that the Soviets were very able to exploit American weakness in the mid-to-late 1970s. In an environment of continued American weakness, Putin would have continued his life’s mission of reassembling the old Soviet Empire. Eastern Europe and the Baltic countries would be next after Ukraine was re-digested.

Oh, I agree. There was no interference with our election.

I did speak with a couple people who are into the slightly deeper web in hacking situations, who were telling me that the kind of rooms we saw in this last season of homeland, where people sitting at hundreds of computers are paid to create fake social media individuals who push an agenda on social media and in chat rooms, do exist. They CAN exist anywhere, even in Russia.

Nothingburger. Anyone can go online and say anything. That does not constitute INTERFERENCE in an election. ANYONE is allowed to say what they want. The President of Country X can stand up at his podium and announce that Country X hopes Trump will win!

I was being tongue in cheek - really, that info from the hacker is the only thing I have heard EVER about how Russia might have attempted any influence in our election at all, and it is not collusion or illegal or really even wrong.

(Between you and me, I don’t even think Putin felt he NEEDED to interfere with our election. He already had the goods on Hill. And he knew Trump would be more straightforward and easier to work with than the slimy Obama who had to answer to his Muslim owners.)

There were two events. The one we saw on TV where both Hillary and Trump spoke for a half hour each questioned by Matt Lauer in October before the election - and the one the people backstage witnessed where Hillary became unglued because Matt asked her questions forcing her to free wheel her answers that were not on script. Hillary was pissed because she was not being soft-balled as she had prepared.

In the "ungluing" backstage, Hillary reamed Donna Brazille and then followed it up, it seems, later with a personal email. The people backstage were all assistants to Hillary and NBC media types because they were covering the townhall. What the video portrays is the collective disgust they had for Hillary as they saw her have a melt-down hissyfit. She did this in front of her own supporters in the media. If they had any allusions to her perfectness that was all shattered when they saw the real Hillary.

The media has propped Hitlary up for so long and now that it is all unraveling they are having to cover their backsides.

In the Bible, I think it is in Proverbs or something, there is an image of an ostrich who lays eggs and is not careful of her brood as she steps on them breaking their yolks. That reminds me of her. Her toadies in the media have been doing everything they can think of to prop her up, but she just stomps on them not thinking about how she might be destroying them.

I DISAGREE !

I strongly believe that document and other sources were generated by Amid Awan, Jamal Awan, Imran Awan, and Rao Abbas,
while they were working for the Democratic National Committee, under the direction of Debbie Wasserman Schultz, Hillary and Bill Clinton, and the ILLEGAL ALIEN IN CHIEF .

The interference was FROM the Democratic National Committee, even if it was NOT EFFECTIVE.

We must CONFISCATE the Democratic National Committee's COMPUTER SERVERS and have them analyzed in detail.
The evidence is IN THOSE COMPUTERS !

Thank you again, and I apologize for having been so slow on the uptake, resulting in myself having needlessly been a bother.

After going to the vid you'd initially supplied link to, yes, your explanation is how it was. Again, I apologize for having caused you the trouble of writing it all out.

You included in explanation mentioning;

I'd missed the follow-up email part-- unless it was more along lines of being just a claim? Too tired I suppose, and still haven't slept but about an hour since yesterday -- but wanted to thank you, so started typing...

I did catch how Bill Still claimed to have gotten an email that had t.v. network return address, that went into some detail, including Hillary telling Brazile she just stood there "like a stupid cow" and had to do something to "fix this" etc.

If there actually was follow-up letter from Hildabeast (or Hildabest headquarters, be that as however it may --DNC or else more directly 'Her Beastness's campaign) to Brazil, I'd sure like to see a source- verified copy of that. The better to bonk them all, and in their darkness bind them with.

Lacking that, there may be network personnel who will come forward? We here on FR are hip to how Her Herness operated --- tried to get Lauer fired, pressuring NYT and Washington Wash-bag to join in with and support the pressuring letters her campaign sent to the network. Other Dhimmi Party dim-bulbs across portions of media spectrum fell in line immediately, and did join in with the down-with-Matt-Lauer he committed unpardonable sin screeching. That in itself is a story which could stand re-telling -- to the Dhimmi Party dim-bulb faithful. When it's presented as part of a larger arch of Her Herness' loose commitment to truth, coupled with habitual Hildabeast imperious attitude -- it can be more easily understood why she lost to a guy like Donald Trump. The Beast-er [here beginning at at 1:28 runtime mark];

I still think the Demo'Rat Party (on super-secret and sly levels) cooed at, flattered and encouraged Trump to throw his hat into the ring in the first place. He took them up on it, and played for keeps. Surprise, surprise, surprise Sgt. Carter.

They thought he'd be an easy target, a target that could be used to ridicule the GOP while Trump stirred up "stuff", figuring if Trump were to somehow pull it off, and win the nomination (the media DID appear to be helping Trump win the GOP nomination, didn't they, more than just a little -- Trump was their favorite -- for Hildabeast to run against in the general) then at some point Her Herness would be FIFTY POINTS AHEAD.

It did not go as planned schemed. She FUBAR'd. Too much junk in the trunk. Before the polls closed -- it was the Russians. Of course you know all of that latter part, even if not agreeing with the former guessing at things I'm indulging myself in, I'm sure.

I hardly ever watch network t.v. of any kind, but I'm aware of some of the genre. What I'd like to see is a new series, starring those who she stomped on but did not manage to fully kill - and then they grew up;

Let's have our common enemies turn one upon the other (even more than they've already been sliding towards doing, a little here and there).

Dear God in Heaven --- can this be made to be? If this is a bad prayer, please, lead me to pray better in regard to this particular subject. But I do again thank you for how much so far it does seem to me that you've answered my own prayers ---that their attacks against Trump would be their own collective (no pun intended!) downfall.

You are no bother.

I think a lot of what was found out was discovered on Wikileaks.

If Mueller really wants to do his job right he needs to go through Wikileaks.

Sapphira, be careful what you ask for, because you just might get it.
We don't want to get caught up in the crossfire.
