Hillary Clinton says conspiracies about her spread by QAnon followers are 'rooted in ancient scapegoating of women'
Business Insider via MSN ^ | 2/06/21 | Connor Perrett

Posted on 02/06/2021 10:17:41 PM PST by Libloather

Hillary Clinton, the former first lady, senator, secretary of state, and nominee for president, in an interview with The New York Times published Friday addressed the rampant and baseless conspiracy theories about her and her family, including those spread by Georgia GOP Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene.

"For me, it does go back to my earliest days in national politics, when it became clear to me that there was a bit of a market in trafficking in the most outlandish accusations and wild stories concerning me, my family, people that we knew, people close to us," Clinton said in an interview with New York Times columnist Michelle Goldberg.

Clinton, who served as secretary of state during President Barack Obama's first term in the White House, said that the attacks against her relying on baseless theories, like ones that allege she belongs to a satanic cult, are part of larger cultural sexism and misogyny.

"This is rooted in ancient scapegoating of women, of doing everything to undermine women in the public arena, women with their own voices, women who speak up against power and the patriarchy," she told The New York Times. "This is a Salem Witch Trials line of argument against independent, outspoken, pushy women. And it began to metastasize around me."

CIA told Obama of claim Hillary Clinton conjured Trump-Russia scandal

by Steven Nelson, New York Post, Sept 29, 2020

Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe on Tuesday revealed a bombshell allegation that Hillary Clinton ordered "a campaign plan to stir up a scandal" by linking President Trump to Russia in 2016 -- and that then-President Barack Obama knew about her possible role.

Ratcliffe disclosed the information in a letter published by Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) just hours before Trump debates Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden, who was vice president at the time.

Clinton's alleged July 2016 plot would tar Trump by "tying him to [Russian President Vladimir] Putin and the Russians' hacking of the Democratic National Committee," Ratcliffe wrote Graham, the chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee.

Handwritten notes by then-CIA Director John Brennan, who now is a fiery anti-Trump commentator, say that Brennan briefed Obama on "alleged approval by Hillary Clinton on July 26, 2016 of a proposal from one of her foreign policy advisors to vilify Donald Trump by stirring up a scandal claiming interference by Russian security services." ..."

If I’m not mistaken, investigating, smearing, and generally digging up dirt on political opponents (and that’s not just those of opposing parties either) is as old as politics itself, meaning it goes back to when only men could vote and run for office. And it’s actually considered to have its beneficial side versus worship of uncritical leadership, like in North Korea.

Those days of riding the romantic political coattails
of being a Clinton must be over for her—Ironpants Rodham.
The bridal trains lead to Ghislaine Maxwell who is in
better shape than Vince Foster per suicide watch.
Was Bill whispering in her ear that the only reason
he won without a popular majority was because of DeMolay?
Not winning a electoral vote was Masonic magic at work?

The so called rumors about Hillary and Bill have been around decades before there was a Q anon. And there are far too many to all be called fake.

"RUSSIA COLLUSION"

The 'Trump-Russia collusion' story was of course a hoax, a COVER, to hide what THEY (the notoriously traitorous Democrats) were doing, as the only evidence for Russia collusion involves THEM!

1) Newly unclassified docs reportedly state (surprise-surprise) Russians actually wanted HILLARY to win, not Trump! Obama CIA chief Brennan hid the evidence!!

2) Top Putin aids (Vladislav Surkov and Vyacheslav Trubnikov) provided disinformation (fake 'dirt') on Trump! (via RUSSIAN AGENT Igor Danchenko) for Clinton campaign/DNC paid-for Steele dossier!!

3) Obama-Biden DENIED desperately requested military assistance to Ukraine
...during the 2014 Russia invasion of Crimea!!

4) $3.5 MILLION from the wife of a former mayor of Moscow! (Elena Baturina) The former mayor of Moscow (Yuri Luzhkov) was a strong advocate for Russia invading and taking over Crimea. The $3.5 million reportedly passed hands within WEEKS of the Russia invasion of Crimea! (Feb-Mar 2014). Obama admin did nothing but provide them food rations and blankets! They had begged him for military equiptment.

5) Burisma owner [Mykola Zlochevsky] was/is a RUSSIA ALLY! Joe Biden's son worked for and brought in millions from Burisma. Joe is ON VIDEO BRAGGING about extorting the Ukrainians into firing the prosecutor who was investigating his son and the corrupt RUSSIA-ALLIED owner of the company. Zlochevsky was an official of the former 'puppet' regime that Putin had installed in Ukraine via a rigged election. The 'puppet' president of that regime's opponent in the election barely survived an assassination attempt by poisoning. His face was left badly pockmocked for some time afterward.

6) For 8 years the Obama-Biden-Clinton admin immensely HELPED the Russians, via Obama's promised and delivered "flexibility" on missile defense, the Russia-favoring New Start nuke treaty, the Putin-loving Iran deal (Iran and Syria are pawns of Russia in the oil/gas-rich Middle East), the Uranium-One deal, where Obama-Hillary allowed Russia to take ownership of 20% of our uranium production!

7) They (Obama-Biden) deliberately slashed OUR military to pieces. Fortunately, Trump has/had since brought it back times 10.

Re: Hunter Biden and Burisma

FYI: Ukrainian gas giant Burisma is owned by Mykola Zlochevsky, a close ally of Russian president Putin. In fact, he was an official in the 'puppet' regime that Putin had installed in the Ukraine through a rigged election [energy minister and deputy national security council chair]. The former 'puppet' president was thrown out of office in 2014 following Ukraine's "Euromaidan revolution" and immediately went into hiding in Russia where he remains today wanted in Ukraine for the crime of high treason.

That said...

PUTIN'S FRIEND was paying Joe's son three, four, five, possibly more, millions of dollars. And he got under investigation.”

—Rudy Giuliani
______________________________________________

Giuliani, Sean Hannity show, Fox News, May 2019:

GIULIANI: He [Hunter Biden] was working for the most corrupt company in the Ukraine [Burisma]. He was working for a Ukrainian oligarch who was being protected by Putin. The same Putin that we have been hearing about for all this time, right? Imagine that..

GIULIANI [continuing]: Putin's friend was paying Joe’s son three, four, five, possibly more, millions of dollars. And he got under investigation. And Joe bragged two years later that he got the prosecutor general fired. He just left out of it that the prosecutor general was investigating his son and his son's crooked boss [Putin's friend]. And then afterwards, the case disappeared.

Massive bribe to stop Ukraine probe of Burisma founder intercepted

by Bradford Betz | Fox News | June 14, 2020

[excerpt]
Ukrainian officials on Saturday announced they intercepted a $6 million bribe attempt to stop a criminal investigation into the president of Burisma ...”

[Ukraine's anti-corruption prosecutor Nazar] Kholodnitsky and the head of the national anti-corruption bureau, Artem Sytnik, said the bribe was intended to encourage their offices to halt a probe of Mykola Zlochevsky, the head of Burisma and a former minister of ecology. Zlochevsky was accused of using his ministerial position for personal enrichment.

Three people, including a high-ranking tax service official, have been detained in connection with the attempted bribe, officials said Saturday.

In a statement, Burisma claimed the company had nothing to do with any bribe attempt.

"Neither Burisma Group President Mykola Zlochevsky nor other employees of the company have any relationship to the voiced events," the company said. "Mykola Zlochevsky didn’t ask for anyone to commit wrong actions and never contributed to such actions."
