The Clinton family has made sporadic and often subdued appearances in the 18 months (538 days) since Hillary Clinton lost her presidential election. But we're about to see a lot more of them this spring.
Why it matters: This family has been on the national stage for 26 years — all or most of the lifetime of anyone under 50. Chelsea Clinton, now 38, was 11 when her father, Arkansas Gov. Bill Clinton, announced his entry into the race for the Democratic presidential nomination in October 1991. He was 45 then; is 71 now.
Be smart: As the 2020 presidential race ramps up, plenty of top Democrats we talk to would prefer new energy and faces to Clinton nostalgia/redemption.
What to watch...
Longtime Clinton supporters last week received an invitation offering access to the family (the green invitation features photos of Bill, Hillary and Chelsea) at a Clinton Foundation benefit on May 24 in New York, at prices ranging from $2,500 ("Friend") for cocktail party and dinner, up to $100,000 ("Chair") for "Leadership Reception for two, a premium table of ten, program recognition as Gala Chair and invitations to the Clinton Foundation Annual Briefing." The foundation's streamlined mission: "create economic opportunity, improve public health, and inspire civic engagement and service."
Hillary Clinton this morning will lead the first meeting of her Onward Together political group, on New York's Upper East Side. She and Howard Dean will welcome 11 partner organizations for a day of sessions "about harnessing the energy and activism post-election." In the afternoon, the groups have the chance to meet with 150 donors. Last year, OT had 33,000 donors and gave over $1 million to partner groups. The group says that figure will be higher for midterms this year.
President Clinton publishes a novel on June 4, co-authored with thriller writer James Patterson, "The President Is Missing" (preorder link). The two will appear together at BookCon, a massive booksellers' convention, at the Javits Center in New York on June 3. Tickets are already sold out. Then the pair have a multi-city book tour in June — together and separately. An eight-part series comes to Showtime in 2019.
Chelsea Clinton is a prolific tweeter. She has been repeatedly critical of the campaign memoir by the N.Y. Times' Amy Chozick, "Chasing Hillary," shouting out to people who comment on the book: "Hi Ana Marie! ... Thank you Max ... Hi Dan! ... Hi Katy! ... Hi Jeet! ... Hi Amy! ... Hi @amychozick!"
When exactly did they lay low and go away? I’ve forgotten.
These whores will never have enough. Release the kraken (the video of Hillary molesting a child). We need closure from this family.
Wave of what, rapes by Bill.
Sounds like BullJeet to me.
They used the words ‘new’ and ‘Clinton’ in the same sentence.
Ridiculous.
Fixed it.
Which is more reason than ever for Congress to pass a "Leave Office, Go Home, and Shut Up" law.
The Clintons have been at the controls of the US govt machinery for about 25 years.......and they're still trying to tell us what to do.
"Clintons, get outta here. We're sick to death of you. Go home and shut the hell up. "
Not a chance!!
I just wish I could unread all the Patterson books I've read. He sure had me fooled for years...
The Clintons bought the property next to their Chappaqua house and built or are building (without proper permits) a house on that property. I imagine the plan is to have Chelsea and her family move to Chappaqua and run for that Westchester seat.
I think the current office holder is Nita Lowry who had planned to run for the Senate seat of Daniel Patrick Moynihan before then FLOTUS Clinton decided she was going to move to NY and run for that seat, at which time Lowry stepped aside. When Lowry decides (or is told to) retire, Chelsea will likely run for her seat.
I think she died a few weeks ago.
I ain't going to no critter funeral, but I will visit her grave, depending on where it is.
Which critter cemetery will the fat, ugly criminal cow be buried at by the ASPCA? Is it waterproof?
Not so fast!
We're still trying to digest the tsunami of Clinton Family Ccriminality from the 90s and the 2000s!
For example, we’ve all heard about the famous War Room of the 1992 Clinton presidential campaign. But Gerth and Van Natta reveal that across the alley from the War Room was a more secretive effort, headed by Hillary and known as the Defense Team, that really got into the down-and-dirty stuff. The Defense Team’s job was to knock down any allegation, no matter how well founded, about Bill Clinton’s girlfriends, his avoidance of the draft, Whitewater, Hillary Clinton’s legal work — anything that might hurt the campaign. And to do it by any means necessary, legal or not: Gerth and Van Natta report that on one occasion Mrs. Clinton listened to a “secretly recorded audiotape” of Clinton adversaries talking on the phone about the next possible bimbo eruption. “Bill’s supporters monitored frequencies used by cell phones,” Gerth and Van Natta add, “and the tape was made during one of those monitoring sessions.” Who knew that Mrs. Clinton was an early advocate of warrantless wiretapping?"
Chelsea's odds of running successfully are between zero and minus infinity.
I totally believe that Freepers are not the only adult citizens to be absolutely and permanent enemies of Dynasties, no matter what the name. Those days are permanently over.
Good luck to the Clinton Criminal mini fat cow!
