Drudge report expands 5/11/99 “...Earlier this year, ABC NEWS hotshot reporter Jackie Judd showed presidential accuser Kathleen Willey a picture of a man. Judd was developing a story about an incident she was first to reveal about the morning Willey was spooked by a stranger — a stranger that knew too many details about her private life. A stranger that approached her just two days before she was to tell a grand jury about what Bill Clinton did to her in the White House. “Is this the man who approached you that morning?” Judd asked Willey. The DRUDGE REPORT can now reveal that Willey was shown a picture of Cody Shearer — the brother-in-law of Deputy Secretary of State Strobe Talbott and long-time friend of President Bill Clinton! Judd has not yet filed a report on what Willey told her that day, but Willey did open up to CNBC’s Chris Matthews in an interview on Tuesday night. Willey unloaded details of her run-in with a man: “I was walking with my three dogs, and I saw this man coming toward me... He called me by name, ‘Kathleen, did you ever find your cat?’ he asked. ‘No, I have not, and we really miss him,’ I told him. ‘Did you ever get those tires fixed on your car?’ he asked. The hair on my neck started to stand on end... He asked me about my children by name. Willey told Matthews that she can ID the man as being one of the president’s associates. The twin brother of Deputy Secretary of State Strobe Talbott’s wife, Brooke Shearer, has been at the center of controversy since Bill Clinton has been president — but he has remained mostly out of the headlines. Freelance journalist Cody Shearer is alleged to have had cozy relations with Investigative Group International, using their office databases and hob-nobbing with operatives, according to reports in VANITY FAIR and the NEW YORK POST last summer.....”
Thanks. I knew Talbot was involved in some dark way! Nice to know my memory isn’t completely gone.....lol!
My, my.........how the threads of a story begin to weave a magnificent web........
Excellent finds and posts......
We all need to be reminded of that which we don’t wish to repeat.....
I’m hoping Obama the “man for change” has a stake ready to drive through the Clinton legacy’s heart....
Hillary is good friends with Strobe Talbott’s wife, Brooke Shearer. In one article, it said that Brooke often travelled with Hillary. Brooke’s brother, Derek, and his family, were also close to the Clinton’s. Derek was Urban Planning Director and a professor of public policy at Occidental College beginning fall of 1981, the same year Obama left Occidental for Columbia. He was married to the mayor of Santa Monica, CA, and also involved in local politics along with longtime cohorts Tom Hayden and Jane Fonda. Derek was later one of WJC’s economic advisors and he appointed him Ambassador to Finland. He has a long resume. As to his relationship with the Clinton’s, the following is from a memorial in recognition of Derek’s son:
Remarks at a Memorial Service for Casey Shearer in Providence, Rhode Island
May 25,2000
The President. Derek, Ruth, Anthony, Julia, Marva, Allyson, all of the family and friends, I want you to know why we’re here today. Over 30 years ago, I lived with Casey’s Uncle Strobe, and through him I met Casey’s Aunt Brooke. And they were in love, and so I then had to meet Derek and Cody and Marva and Skip. And then I introduced them to Hillary. And then Derek introduced all of us to Ruth. And the rest is history.

Thank you.
NOTE: The President spoke at 5:45 p.m. in Sayles Hall at Brown University. In his remarks, he referred to the following members of Casey Shearer’s family: his uncle, Deputy Secretary of State Strobe Talbott; his aunt, Brooke Shearer, former director, White House Fellowships; his father, former U.S. Ambassador to Finland Derek N. Shearer; his stepbrother, Anthony Shearer, and his stepsister, Julia; his mother, Ruth Y. Goldway; his grandparents, Lloyd (Skip) and Marva Shearer; and his uncle, journalist Cody Shearer.
