Yes, Hillary Clinton Will Hold a Press Conference. And It’s Going to Be 'Brief.'
National Journal ^ | March 10, 2015 | Marina Koren

March 10, 2015 Forget Hillary Clinton's speech on gender equality at the United Nations this afternoon. What the people wanted to know on Tuesday was whether the former secretary of State was going to hold a press conference after her remarks to address her email story, which now enters its second week in the news cycle.

A Clinton spokesman confirmed late Tuesday morning that Clinton will indeed hold a "brief press conference" after the U.N. speech. The "brief" nature of it is telling: Clinton is likely looking to get in, assure the public, and get out.

News organizations spent the morning trying to pin down specific details about the presser. The Associated Press reported that Clinton is expected to take questions from reporters, which could make the conference run longer than perhaps Team Hillary hopes. Reporters dispatching from their desks and not in New York City, where Clinton is keynoting a Women's Empowerment Principles event, were grappling with a scary question: Will the presser be live-streamed? Event organizers are planning to webcast Clinton's speech through the Women's Empowerment Principles' website, but it's unclear if that stream will include the press conference.

In New York, reporters are itching to go. Clinton's team is "working to help with access" to the presser, the spokesman said.

Clinton is expected to address the controversy over her email use while at the State Department. A New York Times report revealed last week that the unofficial Democratic presidential candidate used a private email address—not a .gov account—to conduct official work as secretary of state, a practice that could have violated federal record-keeping laws.

Well, there are just so many ways to say ‘I don’t recall.’

We need to keep her in the hunt until June of 2016. At that point we can only hope that the pressure of the camapign take it toll on her.

If she is there as the presumptive candidate, the dems will have no back up candidate in place.

Anyone look into regulations about using private phone texting for official business? Who handles her cell phone service? Where are texts stored, and for how long? She’s known for avoiding email due to the paper trail, what other persistent-storage communications methods is she using instead?

Could you imagine if Condoleeza Rice had done this?

The Democrats, the MSM and the journ-0-list collaborators would be on a 24/7 rant. You wouldn’t be able to turn on a television or radio without hearing about it.

“Clinton’s team is “working to help with access to the presser”

HaHaHahaHa. Allow me to translate: Clinton’s team is carefully selecting lackeys who will read the questions her staff provides and not go off script.

Clintons Return White House Furniture " Former President Clinton and his wife, Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, have sent $28,000 worth of household goods back to Washington after questions arose over whether the items were intended as personal gifts or donations to the White House.

“We have been informed that it is being shipped back, and the National Park Service is ready to receive it, take possession of it and take custody of it,” Jim McDaniel, the National Park Service’s liaison to the White House, said Wednesday.

“The property is being returned to government custody until such time that the issues can be resolved. It may well turn out that that property is rightly the personal property of the Clintons.”

Giving Back

After they were criticized for taking $190,000 worth of china, flatware, rugs, televisions, sofas and other gifts with them when they left, the Clintons announced last week that they would pay for $86,000 worth of gifts, or nearly half the amount.

Their latest decision to send back $28,000 in gifts brings to $114,000 the value of items the Clintons have either decided to pay for or return......"

[snip]

" The gifts were just one of several flaps that followed the Clintons out of the White House:

Lawmakers are questioning Clinton’s desire to rent expensive office space in New York City at government expense. Because of the contention, the former president’s foundation has offered to pay at least $300,000 of an estimated $790,000 annual rent for the office Clinton favors.

Mrs. Clinton, the new senator from New York, has faced questions about the propriety of accepting the gifts in the period between her election and her swearing-in. Senate rules would have limited what she could accept had she been a senator.

Members of both parties also have criticized Clinton for granting scores of eleventh-hour clemency requests, including the pardon of Marc Rich, a fugitive in Switzerland from 51 counts in the United States of tax evasion and fraud."

Based on the proven longevity of leftys with gold plated healthcare, we may have to endure them for 3 more decades.
