Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton criticized former President Donald Trump and stressed her purported innocence in an interview with Margaret Hoover of PBS’ “Firing Line” on Friday. Clinton echoed sentiments that Trump poses a threat to democracy and mocked him for directing his administration to investigate her only to not file any criminal charges. While the Trump administration never formally accused Clinton of breaking the law, Federal Bureau of Investigation Director James Comey in July 2016 said that Clinton had stored 110 emails containing classified information on a private email server, with eight email chains containing top secret information....

Two time failed presidential loser Hillary Clinton has said that she wishes she’d been MORE derogatory toward supporters of Donald Trump in 2016.Clinton has stated that her “basket of deplorables” comment was “too kind.”Writing in the legacy propaganda outlet The Washington Post, Hillary noted “In 2016, I famously described half of Trump’s supporters as ‘the basket of deplorables.’ I was talking about the people who are drawn to his racism, sexism, homophobia, xenophobia, Islamophobia — you name it. The people for whom his bigotry is a feature, not a bug.”Hillary admitted that the comment was political suicide, but says she...

It didn’t take long for the eco-zealots to strike again. Just minutes after JustStopOil activists Phoebe Plummer and Anna Holland were jailed for throwing Heinz tomato soup over Van Gogh’s “Sunflowers,” a trio of JSO protesters have again targeted the artist’s work at the National Gallery in London. How very tiresome… The climate protest group tweeted out a video of the group’s latest stunt, urging Brits to “support people in resistance.” The clip of the art attack, which was recorded this afternoon, shows passers-by remonstrating with the JSO activists. Shouting at a room of livid art enthusiasts, the protesters raged:...

Failed 2016 presidential candidate Hillary Clinton doubled down this week on calling half of former President Donald Trump’s supporters a “basket of deplorables.” Clinton reflected on the infamous and divisive comment she made during a fundraiser in 2016 in a Washington Post op-ed published on Wednesday, adapted from her new book Something Lost, Something Gained: Reflections on Life, Love, and Liberty. In the article, the former secretary of state recalled a meeting she had with a former white supremacist who now works to deprogram people leaving hate groups as an entry to discuss her “deplorables” comment, and said the term...

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said Sunday on CNN’s “Fareed Zakaria GPS” that the election in November is between “dark, it’s dystopian” former President Donald Trump and joyful Vice President Kamala Harris. Clinton said, “When President Biden withdrew and endorsed the vice president, I immediately along with my husband, endorsed her as well. And it felt right it felt exciting, exhilarating. I think she is not only absolutely equipped and ready to be president. I think we need somebody like her right now.”

It didn't take long for California's new laws banning political parody to inspire a parody of Gov. Gavin Newsom in which his voice is imitated saying "on my watch, the cost of living and homelessness have skyrocketed and our schools are failing." "Using AI technology to make it appear that I am admitting fault for the state's problems is a threat to our democracy," Newsom claimed. "It encourages disrespect for those of us tasked with ruling this state and the country. The job is hard enough without the constant drumbeat of criticism and mockery. Now that mockery is so easy...

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said Thursday on ABC’s “The View” that when former President Donald Trump speaks, it is incoherent “word salads.” Co-host Joy Behar said, “The other day he said the Haitians have to go back to Venezuela. I mean, he’s really losing it. So what really annoys me is they raked poor Joe Biden over the coals for every little misstep and this guy gets away with every single thing and that’s including a lot of the media. What do you make of that?”

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said Thursday on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” that former President Donald Trump “was enjoying” watching the riot at the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021. Clinton said, “I came back in to my house, I didn’t have any knowledge of anything going on, and, you know, Chelsea and her husband, Mark and the kids were living with us during COVID, and Bill was at our breakfast table and Chelsea was standing next to him, and they had the television on and I didn’t even know what they were watching.” She continued, “There were these images...

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said on “CBS Sunday Morning” that she was open to “anything” when asked if she would take an official position in a potential Harris-Walz administration. Clinton said, “Well, certainly, unofficially I want to be as helpful as I can, and would do anything I was asked to be helpful. We have so much to do that it really should be all hands on deck. And anybody who can help in any capacity should be willing to do so.” She continued, “I am such an optimist about our country, despite how difficult the times are....

Hillary Clinton has long been one of the most anti-free speech figures in American politics, including calling upon European officials to force Elon Musk to censor American citizens under the infamous Digital Services Act (DSA). She is now suggesting the arrest of Americans who spread what she considers disinformation. It is a crushingly ironic moment since it was her campaign that funded the infamous Steele dossier and spread false stories of Russian collusion during her presidential campaign. Presumably, that disinformation would not be treated as criminal viewpoints. Speaking on MSNBC’s The Rachel Maddow Show this week, Clinton was asked about...

Clinton might want to think twice before proposing prosecutions for spreading Russian propaganda. No one has done that more than she has.Hillary Clinton went on MSNBC this week and told Rachel Maddow that she thinks Americans who spread “misinformation” and Russia propaganda should be prosecuted.In a conversation about the recent Justice Department indictment of several alleged Kremlin-run websites and Russian state media employees, Clinton said it’s important to indict Russians who interfere in our elections but there are also Americans “engaged in this kind of propaganda” and that if they were civilly or criminally charged it would be “a better...

"There needs to be deterrence"

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said Monday on MSNBC’s “The Rachel Maddow Show” that former President Donald Trump’s politics of “hate and division” put the United States’ security in danger. Clinton said, “I’m very hopeful, and even optimistic that Americans who do not want to see a continuation of this politics of hate and division will reject Trump.” She continued, “The object in this case is Donald Trump, his demagoguery, his danger to our country and the world. You know, they were merciless about what they saw as President Biden’s problems in the debate and calling for him to...

Well-well-well… Comey first came in contact with the Clintons in the 1990s when he was investigating WhiteWater scandal. He then went on to investigate the Clinton’s during President Bush’s tenure. TIME reported: Looking to get back into government after a stint in private practice, Comey signed on as deputy special counsel to the Senate Whitewater Committee. In 1996, after months of work, Comey came to some damning conclusions: Hillary Clinton was personally involved in mishandling documents and had ordered others to block investigators as they pursued their case. Worse, her behavior fit into a pattern of concealment: she and her...

Guest host Chelsea Clinton said Thursday on ABC’s “The View” that former President Donald Trump was “scared” of Vice President Kamala Harris after their debate. Co-host Whoopi Goldberg said, “He doesn’t seem to want to commit to another round. Vice President Harris is saying, listen, I’m up for another debate, but does she need to do another debate? I mean, they all for weeks called her dumb and stupid and she didn’t have a brain in her head.” Clinton said, “He knows he lost and he knows he lost his cool. He knows she got under his skin and he...

Jim Sasser has died. The former U.S. senator, lawyer and military man who served as U.S. ambassador to China during the Bill Clinton administration was respected for his pleasant demeanor and quick intellect. He was 87. A former Tennessee Democratic Party chairman, Sasser served Tennessee in the U.S. Senate from 1977 to 1995, partly with Republican Howard Baker and partly with fellow Democrats Al Gore and Harlan Mathews. The state has seen no Democrat hold the position since Sasser left. Clinton appointed Sasser in 1996 to serve as the sixth U.S. ambassador to China.

A new documentary produced by Hillary and Chelsea Clinton and actress Jennifer Lawrence centers on the so-called ‘cruel‘ Texas pro-life law, and three of the women who sued the state over that law. The emotionally charged subject matter seeks to persuade viewers to support legalized abortion throughout pregnancy, primarily because it both showcases the pain of the families involved and avoids the truth — that induced abortion (intentionally killing their children) was not the solution to any of their medical concerns. Induced abortion — the direct and intentional killing of children in the womb — is not the standard treatment...

There are just some things in life that Hillary Clinton will not help you navigate. If you’re looking for investment tips in futures markets or optimal data-storage solutions, Clinton is not your best bet. You wouldn’t go to Clinton for advice on how to win over converts to your health-care-reform plan or to identify real-estate-development corporations with great potential for returns on investment. And you don’t go asking Clinton for thoughts on how to beat Donald Trump in a presidential race. That counsel is lost on the New York Times, which recently sat down with Clinton to press her for...

A top Wall Street dealmaker left an elite New York investment bank after his bosses found out he allegedly had an affair with a younger co-worker on his team.. Adam Taetle stepped down as senior managing director at Evercore — the firm founded by deep-pocketed Democratic Party operative Roger Altman — following an HR probe into the relationship... The reportedly randy rainmaker — a married father of three — exited the firm amid claims of “having a sexual relationship with a female junior employee on his team ... Evercore was founded in 1995 by Altman after he quit the first...

U.S. — A Sikorsky UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter touched down just outside the residence of Bill and Hillary Clinton on Wednesday, carrying the first lady's former CIA handler. According to an anonymous source, he approached Hillary to recruit her for one last Russian collusion hoax. "We've tried everything, Clinton, but Kamala's just too terrible," a man identified as Colonel Wes Danger explained. "You're our last hope." Clinton reportedly shrugged and reminded the colonel that she was retired. "I am at peace here with Bill," she said as she cut wood outside her cabin. "I quit that life." This only...
