Brian Williams, the face of the NBC News division and among its most visible personalities for the past decade, has been suspended from his post at??Nightly News for six months without pay.??

Lester Holt, who has been filling in for Williams since Feb. 9, will continue as interim anchor of Nightly News.

"We have decided today to suspend Brian Williams as Managing Editor and Anchor of NBC Nightly News for six months. The suspension will be without pay and is effective immediately," NBC News president Deborah Turness said in a memo, adding that "this was a very hard decision. Certainly there will be those who disagree. But we believe this suspension is the appropriate and proportionate action."

I for one am rooting for Melissa Harris-Perry to be William’s replacement. Who else would wear Tampon earrings and make their guests imitate barnyard animals?

That Hillary caption brings up I used to ask long, long ago. If Hillary found it so easy to turn a borrowed $10K into $100K in her first futures trade; Why did she quit trading?"

How To Bribe A Crooked Politician I:

It was to cover an illegal bribe or 'gift' from Tyson's Chicken.
Suppose I wanted to give a crooked politician some money under the table. An easy way to do it would be to make a simple options trade... place two trades on something in a zero-sum market. One for and one against the trade.

One of the two 'bets' will win, the other will lose - after the fact, I give the crooked politician the receipt for the winning trade and I keep the one for the losing trade.

That is how you pass dirty money to Hillary.

Also, her excuse was a blatant lie. The Wall Street Journal did not cover futures when she said she learned about it reading the Wall St. Journal.

How To Bribe A Crooked Politician II:

Obama's wife Michelle took a bribe from the University of Chicago Medical Center in another way.

Then Senator Barack Obama arranged a $5million grant from the government to the UofC Medical Center.

In exchange, they created a $377,000.00 per year PART TIME, NO SHOW 'job' for Michelle Obama. A job that she was not only supremely unqualified to perform (zero experience, etc.) but never showed up for. The position was eliminated when Obama was elected President and Michelle had to leave the Chicago area. A clear bribe, payola or whatever you want to call it.

When he comes back people will say “who’s that guy?”

They'll say "who's the white guy who took that job away from the black guy?"

The more I think about it the scams you describe, especially number two, seem like out and out theft. The first was an under the table gift or coercion, I'd say. Because the money went from an outside party to the Clintons to win some favor.

But, the second seems conducted by Barack to put money into his own bank through his wife and then have a hold on powerful people in the management of the university and the hospital.

Another thread says they’ve got the bean counters in examining his expense account. He’s toast. The NEW higher ups want him out
