The Eddie Mush of politics, Bob Shrum, has written an article in the October 19 America magazine attempting to explain how Hillary Clinton lost the 2016 election. Among
the big reasons Shrum cites was overconfidence to the extent that the Hillary campaign declined to even poll the battleground states in the final weeks of the election. Shrum rather incompletely attributes her overconfidence to a heavy reliance upon data analytics without mentioning that it was also probably due to almost all media pundits, including a certain someone very familiar to the author, predicting an absolutely certain Hillary victory:

| October 19, 2017 | Robert M. Shrum
In contrast to Hillary Rodham Clinton’s earlier politically engineered writings, carefully combed for coming campaigns, this is a real book, written by a real person, suffused with the raw wounds of her defeat. It
is marked by the bluntness and occasional tartness of someone who seems to know that her future as a candidate is past. What Happened is also marred by an apparently irrepressible instinct to accept blame and then to pass it on. I understand the frustration. As a close adviser to Al Gore during his presidential campaign in 2000, I saw him win the popular vote, have...

Newsweek ^
| October 16, 2017 | By Marie Solis
Hillary Clinton has blamed her election loss to Donald Trump on pretty much everyone and every thing — most recently telling CNN's Fareeed Zaharia that sexism kept her from shattering America's ultimate glass ceiling. It's
the latest attempt by the former Secretary of State and two-time presidential loser to recast her 2016 loss, so we decided to compile all the reasons Clinton has given for why Donald Trump is sitting in the Oval Office instead of her: Sexism Barack Obama Bernie Sanders James Comey Self-Hating Women The Media Uninformed Voters Voter Suppression Russia Her Campaign Staff The Democratic National Committee...

The actor — whose Tribeca Film Institute took a donation from those accused of embezzlement, while his son sold the prime suspect $55 million in NYC real estate — says he would give back the money if necessary. Leonardo
DiCaprio is undoubtedly the highest-profile Hollywood name connected to the 1MDB Malaysian corruption scandal, which, in addition to more than a billion dollars of alleged money laundering, helped to finance his hit drama The Wolf of Wall Street. But another A-list name has appeared several times in the same orbit as the central figures in the fraud case, which is now...

Brad Parscale: Trump Won After Facebook Employees Taught 2016 Campaign Workers To Micro-Target Ads

| October 8, 2017 | Paula Mooney
Brad Parscale told 60 Minutes that Facebook employees worked right alongside the Trump 2016 campaign workers to help President Donald Trump win the presidency. Parscale
is Trump’s digital director – and as seen in the below 60 Minutes video, Brad called Facebook the “500-pound gorilla,” taking up 80 percent of the digital budget. Meanwhile, people on Facebook and Twitter are calling it troubling that Parscale spoke of micro-targeted Facebook ads that helped Trump win the presidency. Especially troubling to folks unfamiliar with social media strategizing is the notion that Facebook employees were “embedded” in the Trump 2016 campaign, according to...

Hollywood movie mogul Harvey Weinstein will be hosting a star-studded fundraiser for Hillary Clinton on Monday night in New York City. The Democratic donor, who owns the Hamptons house next door to the $50,000-a-week vacation home the Clintons rented last summer, has already maxed out to Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign and contributed
up to $250,000 to the Clinton Foundation. His latest favor for his Hamptons pal will be hosting the likes of Jennifer Lopez, Sarah Jessica Parker, Matthew Broderick, and climate change hero Leonardo DiCaprio at his Manhattan home for a fundraiser benefitting the Hillary Victory Fund, according to the...

opinion | 10-02-2017 | ShivaFan
I just want to remind others that exactly one year ago today, the Obama administration moved to dismiss charges against an arms dealer involved in charges of selling weapons that were destined for Libyan rebels. The
deal averted a trial that threatened to cast scrutiny on Hillary Clinton’s private emails as Secretary of State, and to expose reported Central Intelligence Agency attempts to arm rebels fighting Libyan leader Moammar Qadhafi. Today Hillary Clinton used twitter to blame the NRA for last night's mass shooting of participants at a Country Music concert in front of the Mandalay Bay Las Vegas. She...

could liken this investigation into a fake story to a petty rumor mill in your local high school. If one teen does not become prom princess, she starts a rumor on the one who does. The jealous little loser spreads the rumor all over the Internet until the actual winner can no longer enjoy her victory. Her...

Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg gave an interview to CBS News’ Charlie Rose Tuesday in which she said sexism was a “major factor†in Hillary’s 2016 loss.Asked when she believes a woman will be president, Ginsburg replied, “Well, we came pretty close.†“You
think sexism played a role in that campaign?†Charlie Rose asked. Ginsburg replied, “I have no doubt that it did.†At this point, the crowd breaks into applause. They aren’t applauding sexism, of course, they are applauding a Supreme Court Justice siding with Hillary Clinton and therefore implicitly criticizing President Trump. Asked if sexism was decisive in...

Jeh Johnson: The 2016 election wasn't hacked

Washington Examiner ^
| September 28
Jeh Johnson told lawmakers Thursday he's unaware of any evidence showing cyberattacks affected voting in the 2016 presidential election. But,
the former secretary of homeland security said it's a concerning possibility. "The integrity of our election outcomes on a national level dances on the head of a pin," he told an election security task force assembled by congressional Democrats. "If writers of the TV series ‘House of Cards' can figure that out, then a lot of other people can do the same."

Tuesday night in an interview with CBS’s Charlie Rose, Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg said there was “no doubt” sexism played a role in former Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton’s loss. When
asked if sexism played a role in 2016 Ginsburg said, “I have no doubt that it did.” When asked if it was “decisive,” Ginsburg added, “There are so many things that might have been decisive, but that was a major, major factor.”

Rose then asked if Ginsburg believed the role of sexism was “decisive” in Hillary Clinton’s loss–that is, if Clinton were a man, would she have won the election? “There
are so many things…there’s so many things that might have been decisive,” she hedged. “But that was a major, major factor.” Ginsburg’s responses echo those of Clinton, who has many times blamed sexism for her defeat at the hands of President Donald Trump.

The day after lecturing mourning Dallas police about how racist they are, President Obama hosted leaders of the virulently racist Black Lives Matter movement at the White House. Black Lives Matter, which is funded by hedge fund manager George Soros, is not merely a political movement: it's a Marxist, anti-American, revolutionary cult
whose members aim to unleash a reign of terror on our society. They celebrate when police officers are killed in the line of duty. They don't want equality; they demand that black Americans receive special, preferential treatment. Disagree and they'll howl you're a racist, boycott your business, or...

FULL TITLE | Hillary Clinton Spent 600 Hours on Her Beauty Routine in 2016: 'I Was So Shocked, I Checked the Math Twice' During last year’s presidential campaign, Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton was under constant scrutiny for every move she made in the public eye, and as a female candidate it frequently
was her physical appearance that made headlines rather than her political stance. Clinton candidly details her experience on the campaign trail in her new memoir, What Happened, and her beauty routine is not something she overlooked. “I’ve never gotten used to how much effort it takes just to...
