The biggest Hillary Clinton scandal no one's talking about

The OIG’s report and what the DOJ is investigation are about to prove your nattering negativity totally wrong.

[Tilted Irish Kilt]

from a FReeper article entitled :" WaPo writer found strategizing with Democrats now exploring new career opportunities "

https://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3622169/posts

" Janell Ross, a political reporter for the Washington Post, was found to have participated in a highly secretive, big dollar fundraising and strategy conference for the Democrats.
To be clear, Ross was not there reporting on the conference as part of her job.
She wrote no articles about it and the WaPo said they didn’t even know that she had gone.
She was a participant in the event, even sitting in on one of their panels."

Maybe the press is actively involved in DemoRATic fund raising ?
Or WaPo doesn't want to have their impartiality questioned ?(../s)
Could these incidents be related ?

IMHO you have the causality backward. Journalists have the motive of wanting to be, as Adam Smith put it, our “leaders and directors” by virtue of being believed. And journalists have the motive to be socialist because socialism sells.

That would seem to be counter-intuitive, since, when it comes credibility, socialism always fails, and people know bullshit when they hear it and experience it. Socialism is pure crap, and journalists with good education and good historical understanding would know that to be true. The difference is that, democrats understood early on in American history that, to control the people, they had to take over control of the media, and so, journalism schools became their targets for indoctrination of those with young and pliable minds. But, journalism schools were the only one of the steps needed towards control of the thought-process, and democrats knew that, even before the media, they had to control the minds of the younger generations that would grow up to be ready for journalism schools, and one of the first steps, if not the first, was taking control of the education system, especially the k-12 education system, which they've done a fantastic job of doing. Journalism schools is just one of the steps, and the education system is another, but, once those two were established as strongholds for the next step, the next step would be very easy to achieve and complete, with that next step was control of the media. FOX news and Limbaugh and others like them, are just disruptive forces that democrats failed to see coming. Republicans got lucky that democrats failed to take full control of the media and education systems, or the whole country and the world would have been gonners by now. The "deep state" which we are now fighting against, is part of the bigger plan by democrats to take over control of that "final" step, where every branch of the government would be following orders from the likes of Obama and Hillary and Pelosi and Schumer and their super-rich funding overlords.

Yardbirds? Rope, rope can be reused and cheap Waste not a penny on these treacherous folks which is a much better solution than calling them yardbirds.

I remember a detailed Wikileaks email describing in depth how DNC Hillary Victory Fund could direct donors on how to sidestep campaign contribution limits, by donating to State Parties, Hillary and the the DNC

[Mr. K]

The Clinton’s have done many more things as bad if not worse than Benghazi.

MANY more...

[rodguy911]

As I recall George Webb was all over this one.This is the one where Hillary demanded complete control over everything the DNC did during the election and other stuff,its good.

Socialism is every bit the disaster you paint it as - but it has always been that, and yet it still sells.

Why does socialism sell? Because socialism is best defined as “cynicism towards society and concomitant naiveté towards government.” Cynicism can, I submit, be defined as “the conceit that negativity is objectivity.” Journalism is profitable because it follows rules which clearly boil down to precisely that conceit. “If it bleeds, it leads” tells journalists to be negative towards society. “Man Bites Dog” not “Dog Bites Man” doubles down by telling journalists that the best story is one in which a person or organization which society trusts and depends on betrays society’s trust. Journalism is negative, and journalists know it. How then justify the claim that journalism is objective? That can only be true if negativity is objectivity. And that conceit is nothing other than cynicism.

Journalism’s cynicism towards society maps directly to naiveté towards government for the simple reason that, in a very real sense, “society” and “government” are opposites. This is the burden of the first two paragraphs of Thomas Paine’s Common Sense. Every reason for cynicism towards the people is an argument for trusting the government instead. The upshot is that what sells newspapers tends to promote big government and denigrate freedom.

In that sense, as I said, “socialism sells.”

When we’re sitting here a year from now and there are a bunch of cronies wearing orange jumpsuits you can tell me how wrong I was. I’m confident that a year from now, we’ll just be sitting here. Like we have for the last 25 years.

I caught the irony of the “nattering (nabob) of negativity” remark. Uttered by Spiro Agnew, the highest level public official ever convicted due to corruption.

That socialism sells does not invalidate the points I made about how democrats have always been about taking over every bit of what makes for a democracy, and then undoing that democracy by using their advantages that they worked so hard to attain. Deep state is a result of many of their efforts, socialism/communism cannot be attained without the many carefully executed steps that democrats undertook.

He was not convicted. Spiro plead nolo contendre on one count and thereby introduced that legal term to the general public.
