Here’s a fun one. Doug Band emailing Podesta and Cheryl Mills about Chelsea:

https://wikileaks.org/podesta-emails/emailid/11472

“She sends me one of these types of emails every few days/week

As they say, the apple doesn’t fall far

A kiss on the cheek while she is sticking a knife in the back, and front”

CNN says it’s illegal for you to read the emails. They’ll do it for us.

Thanks.

We need to parse these for Trump...his folks need our help. Trump camp here is one taking black vote for granted, treating blacks like little children. Good tweet material. ..........

De-Classify

Hi John, Was following your tweets and had to chuckle when I read your comment about de-classifying the classified docs — brought back many fun SciFi memories. Hope all is well... And, look forward to hopefully seeing you again, perhaps, this time, during Hillary’s run! Best, Bonnie

my thoughts Jen and I are in the same place. Trying to figure out how to get her there and best way to execute.

On Saturday, August 22, 2015, Neera Tanden wrote:

I know this email thing isn’t on the level. I’m fully aware of that. But her inability to just do a national interview and communicate genuine feelings of remorse and regret is now, I fear, becoming a character problem (more so than honesty).

People hate her arrogant, like her down. It’s a sexist context, but I think it’s the truth. I see no downside in her actually just saying, look, I’m sorry. I think it will take so much air out of this.

She always sees herself bending to “their” will when she hands over information, etc. But the way she has to bend here is in the remorse. Not the “if I had to do it all over again, I wouldn’t do it.”

A real feeling of - this decision I made created a mess and I’m sorry I did that.

No one thinks she doesn’t have the judgment to be president - she’s not reaffirming a negative characteristic in saying sorry.

She needs to do that - I see no way of moving on until October otherwise. Anyway, that’s my advice.

Does the Trump camp have a data mining tool for key words? 241 pages of emails will take forever.

Afte reading the comments about Hillary, Chelsea & Bubba made by her staff & advisers, I’d bet good money heads will roll and the enemy list is much, much longer.

hehehehe

later read

Given the short attention span of the LIV and the media’s “that is old news, already covered’ meme, this drip, drip, drip release is desensitizing the issue and it will take a whopper of an email to have an impact.

What happened February 12, 2015.
What is this referring to Podesta playbook? Did anything significant happen around the date.

We would look at who the donor is and what foreign entity they are registered for. In judging whether to take the money, we would consider the relationship between that country and the United States, its relationship to the State Department during Hillary's time as Secretary, and its relationship, if any, to the Foundation. In judging the individual, we would look at their history of support for political candidates generally and Hillary's past campaigns specifically. Put simply, we would use the same criteria we use for lobbyists, except with a somewhat more stringent screen. As a legal matter, I am not saying we have to do this - we can decide to simply ban foreign registrants entirely. I'm just offering this up as a middle ground.

I was not on the call this morning, but I lean away from a bright line rule here. It seems odd to say that someone who represents Alberta, Canada can't give, but a lobbyist for Phillip Morris can. Just as we vet lobbyists case by case, I would do the same with FARA. While this may lead to a large number of FARA registrants being denied, it would not be a flat our ban.
