Connecting the dots on Hillary Clinton

Emails in Clinton probe dealt with planned drone strikes


WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Emails between U.S. diplomats in Islamabad and State Department officials in Washington about whether to challenge specific U.S. drone strikes in Pakistan are at the center of a criminal probe involving Hillary Clinton's handling of classified information, the Wall Street Journal reported on Thursday.
The 2011 and 2012 emails were sent via the "low side" -government slang for a computer system for unclassified matters - as part of a secret arrangement that gave the State Department more of a voice in whether a CIA drone strike went ahead, according to congressional and law enforcement officials briefed on the FBI probe, the Journal said.

Some of the emails were then forwarded by Clinton's aides to her personal email account, which routed them to a server she kept at her home in suburban New York when she was secretary of state, the officials said, according to the newspaper.

Investigators have raised concerns that Clinton's personal server was less secure than State Department systems, and a recent report by the State Department inspector general found that Clinton had broken government rules by using a private email server without approval, undermining Clinton's earlier defenses of her emails.

“[A]ll of the materials retrieved from any electronic equipment obtained from former Secretary Clinton for the investigation are evidence, potential evidence, or information that has not yet been assessed for evidentiary value,” the FBI said in the filing.

Release of any of that additional information “could reasonably be expected to interfere with the pending investigation,” it added.

Washington (CNN) The lawyer for a former State Department IT specialist told a federal judge his client's immunity deal with the Department of Justice does not cover testimony in civil lawsuits and he will refuse to answer questions at an upcoming deposition.

The lawyer further requested that the details of that immunity deal be provided as a sealed, "ex parte" document, concealing them from the public.

Dolly Kyle met Bill Clinton on a golf course in Hot Springs, Arkansas in the summer of 1959 when she was 11 years old and he was 12.
A thunderbolt struck, so power and intense, it was love at first sight that lasted 32 years - through all his Arkansas gubernatorial years and right up until 'Billy' - as she calls him - was on the threshold of the White House.
Dolly dated Bill all the way through Hot Springs High School together and they were close when he went off to law school at Yale.

Dolly (left as a teen) was just 11 years old when she crossed paths with Bill Clinton (right his senior year of high school). The pair dated through high school and began sleeping with him once they graduated

After heading to college at Yale, Bill told Dolly he had moved in with Hillary Rodham, who he later went on to marry. Bill and Hillary are pictured above during Hillary's student days at Wellesley College

In 1974, he told her of this woman he had moved in with at Yale. It was simply a decent place to live, a roof over his and she would never be an issue between them, he intimated.
The now 60-something Dolly didn't realize at the time that Hillary's role was financial provider, a role that started at Yale University in New Haven, Connecticut.
'Hillary's role of providing financial security for Billy was part of her motivation for the series of financial crimes (yes, crimes) that she committed over the decades'.
'Hillary was upholding her part of the deal to get Billy elected president, after which it would be her turn to be the first woman in the Oval Office', lawyer and author Dolly Kyle writes in her bombshell book Hillary, The Other Woman, published by WND Books.
‘Billy and Hillary Clinton continue to be lying, cheating, manipulative, scratching, clawing, ruthlessly aggressive, insatiably ambitious politicians who are giving public service a bad name – and nothing about them has changed in the past forty-plus years, except that they have deluded more and more people’.
'The Clintons and their misled supporters have rewritten history to suit their political agenda, which is to get votes to get power to get money to get more power to get more money'.
'The Clintons' vicious cycle of intertwining greed and power addictions will have no limit, unless someone stands up and announces, "The emperor has no clothes!"
'Here am I', writes Dolly.
'Ideology, integrity, and love of country were never involved in the "Billary" quest for the White House.
'It was always a codependent, co-conspiratorial grab for money and power and more money and more power'.
'Unfortunately for them and for the United States of America, there is never enough to satisfy addicts'.

Dolly watched Bill Clinton grow up in Arkansas. She witnessed Hillary bringing her carpetbag to Arkansas.
'I know what really happened'. She heard it firsthand.
The 'Man from Hope', only lived in Hope, Arkansas, until the age of seven when he moved to Hot Springs.
The segregated climate in the South festered an attitude towards blacks and allowed Clinton to use the phrase 'G**damn n****r,' which Dolly heard him frequently say.
Clinton first confessed his desire to be president to Dolly back in high school and began chasing it when he was an Arkansas delegate to Boys Nation in the summer of 1963 that took him to the White House and a photo-op with President John F Kennedy in the Rose Garden.
Hillary jumped into that dream by defining herself as financial provider, so Billy told Dolly.
Her support allowed him to pursue 'his addictions to politics, power and sex'.
Bill's mother had supported the family financially while his stepfather drank. Now it was Hillary supporting him and he introduced Dolly to the woman from Yale on the evening of May 28, 1974 at the airport in Little Rock.
It was election night and Senator William Fulbright was running for re-election. He had been Clinton's champion, gave him his first Senate job while Bill attended Georgetown University; introduced him to powerful people in Washington; supported him for the Rhodes Scholarship he won; a teaching job at Arkansas Law School and his endorsement as well as intros to financial backers for Bill's first congressional campaign that he eventually lost.
Bill's plane landed and he was first to de-board followed by 'a dowdy-looking woman who appeared to be middle-aged'.
Bill greeted his lover Dolly formally with an extended hand while she checked out this mystery woman accompanying him.

Dolly writes in her book that Hillary, pictured above in 1969, was 'wearing a misshapen, brown, dress-like thing that must have been intended to hide her lumpy body' when they met

Bill introduced Dolly to Hillary (pictured in her college years) on the evening of May 28, 1974 at the airport in Little Rock. She said Hillary's support allowed him to pursue 'his addictions to politics, power and sex'.

'I couldn't imagine why Billy would haul such a person in the plane with him in public. She was wearing a misshapen, brown, dress-like thing that must have been intended to hide her lumpy body. The garment was long, but stopped too soon to hide her fat ankles and her thick calves covered with black hair'.
'Thick brown sandals did nothing to conceal her wide feet and the hair on her toes'. Dolly was embarrassed that she was staring.
Hillary's eyes, glared at her from behind coke-bottle-thick lenses' with an air of real hostility.
Her thick eyebrows melded together stretching across her forehead.
'In that moment, I noticed that the woman emitted an overpowering odor of perspiration and greasy hair. I hoped that I wouldn't gag when she got in the car'.
I was stunned thinking it was some kind of a sick joke - a woman in a hideous disguise.

Finally the introduction: 'Dolly, this is Hillary. Hillary, Dolly.'
'I was stunned,' Dolly recalled, thinking it was 'some kind of a sick joke' - a woman in a hideous disguise.
Dolly extended her hand but Hillary only glared and nodded.
The plan had been to go the Fulbright's campaign headquarters, but when the votes came in he was losing.
Hillary signaled to Bill and the plan was changed. He would head back to the airport.
'I don't want to be seen with a loser,' Bill told Dolly.
This was his mentor on the most critical night of his 30-year career. It brought tears to Dolly's eyes that he would not pay his respects to the man responsible for his career.
At that time, Hillary was working in Washington, DC and 'trying to become a political force under her own steam'.
'It was a futile attempt,' Dolly writes.

Hillary (pictured in 1974 working for the Rodino Committee bringing impeachment charges against President Richard Nixon) was working in Washington, DC and 'trying to become a political force under her own steam', but Dolly claims it was a 'futile attempt'

Her job with the Watergate investigation ended.
'I do believe that Hillary showed the same lack of integrity there that would later get her into more serious trouble'.
Dolly suggested her boss had little respect for Hillary as a young lawyer and 'he doubted that she had any potential to bring honor to the profession'.
A lawyer and graduate of Yale, Hillary wanted a career in Washington. She flunked the DC bar exam and moved to Fayetteville, Arkansas, where Bill was teaching Law at the University of Arkansas.
But she had her spies there months before to uncover Bill's lovers but being 'furriners' from Chicago, they weren't getting any help on ratting out Bill.
Dolly started sleeping with Bill after high school and admits 'Billy was a sex addict; I was a codependent'.
'Then I read about sex addiction. I realized that Billy and I shared a similar problem,' she writes.
He confessed his sex addiction to Dolly in 1987 and was undone by Wilt Chamberlain's claim to have slept with 20,000 women.
'That's ten times more than I've had!' he told Dolly.
He notoriously never used a condom and Dolly guessed Hillary wasn't concerned because she wasn't sleeping with him because of her 'lifestyle'.
It didn't matter that Bill married Hillary in October 1975, Dolly writes.
Dolly and Bill continued their love affair and were safe in Arkansas because no one liked Hillary, she says.
Chomping at the bit for her own term as governor or president, she still had private investigators tracking Bill and the 'women he was dating or attacking'.
Bill called her 'the Warden', but 'she had to keep his nose clean in the public mind because she was riding his coattails to political power'.

+16


Bill Clinton was elected president of the United States in 1992. He is pictured above with Hillary at the 1993 Inaugural Ball

'Hillary needs the power' and she is ruthless, Dolly writes.
Hillary's well-chronicled foul mouth and anger towards the White House security detail existed in the governor's mansion as well.
She resented that she had to dress like Southern women, Dolly says. She visited dress shops but generally didn't buy anything.
In March 1979, Bill told Dolly he wanted a child but had a low sperm count.
'We need to have a baby so we can appear to be a normal couple. We need to do something serious to take attention off the Warden's lifestyle'.
He did not use the word lesbian. He was asking Dolly to pray that a baby would be forthcoming. Dolly suggested he had to bite the bullet and sleep with Hillary.
Hillary is not a leader. She is a coattail-clutcher who has a litany of jobs with no accomplishments'

Within a year, Chelsea Victoria Clinton was born and Bill fell head over heels with the little baby.
But Hillary felt trapped being at home with a baby and couldn't wait to get back to work.
'How long do I have to stay at home with this kid?' Dolly recalls her asking her friend, Louise.
She stayed home with baby Chelsea for three months before returning to work. .
Fast forward to Bill as governor and Hillary, the first female partner of the Rose Law Firm, their relationship was not at it's best, Dolly writes. She says there were hissy fits, and Clinton threw dishes at Bill in the Kitchen and broke a kitchen cabinet door – all signs of her anger.
Bill lost the governorship after one year and Hillary was furious, knowing that she was no longer the state's First Lady and had to move out of the governor's mansion and into a tiny house, Dolly writes.
And she was furious, too, that Bill wanted to stay home with the baby. He confessed to Dolly but it was the baby that kept the couple together.
'Hillary was busy studying the exit polls and wondering if it might be time to find another coattail to clutch on her way to the White House,' Dolly recalls.
Political guru Dick Morris, who had worked on their 1978 gubernatorial race, then came on scene.

+16


Hillary, who just clinched the nomination for the 2016 Democratic presidential candidate, is pictured above campaigning with Bill in April

Bill had passed on being chair of the National Democratic Party and opted for a job with a local law firm.
It was Morris who devised the winning plan to get back into the Governor's mansion. Bill had to apologize for his arrogance among other sins during his first term and Hillary Rodham had to change her name to Hillary Clinton.

+16



The plan worked and they moved back in the manse in 1983.
Still, 'Hillary is not a leader. She is a coattail-clutcher who has a litany of jobs with no accomplishments', Dolly claims.
Dolly writes that Hillary failed as co-president and failed as senator 'unless you are impressed with the bills she introduced to name a couple of post offices'.
She also, Dolly claims, failed as secretary of state and as a defender of women over the past 40 years. Hillary instigated threats on women who had sex with her husband, a serial sex abuser.
Bill's 12-year affair with Gennifer Flowers exploded on the news in early 1992.
The Clintons' reaction was for Dolly, a lover of Bill's for years, deny that he had any liaison with Gennifer but admit that he did have a lengthy close relationship with her that began when they were in high school.
They wanted the big lie to be told on the television show, 60 Minutes, with Hillary, Bill and Dolly sitting in a room facing the camera.
The Clintons believed that the confession would make Gennifer's story disappear and now the media would focus on Dolly, who was loved in Arkansas.




But Hillary didn't care about her husband's affections for Dolly. She did care if Gennifer Flowers' confession derailed Bill's run for President that year.
Dolly, a stickler for the truth, however, refused to go along with the big deceit and she was told, 'Bill and Hillary will have to destroy you'.
Dolly claims that Hillary did try to destroy here.
'There appears to be no limit to what Hillary will do to destroy her perceived enemies.' she writes.
'In her speeches and on her website, without giving any evidence of what she has done, Hillary states that she has been fighting for women for over forty years.
'She is confused again. She has been attacking women for over forty years'.

Newly released State Department emails help reveal how a major Clinton Foundation donor was placed on a sensitive government intelligence advisory board even though he had no obvious experience in the field, a decision that appeared to baffle the department’s professional staff.
The emails further reveal how, after inquiries from ABC News, the Clinton staff sought to “protect the name” of the Secretary, “stall” the ABC News reporter and ultimately accept the resignation of the donor just two days later.
Copies of dozens of internal emails were provided to ABC News by the conservative political group Citizens United, which obtained them under the Freedom of Information Act after more the two years of litigation with the government.
A prolific fundraiser for Democratic candidates and contributor to the Clinton Foundation, who later traveled with Bill Clinton on a trip to Africa, Rajiv K. Fernando’s only known qualification for a seat on the International Security Advisory Board (ISAB) was his technological know-how. The Chicago securities trader, who specialized in electronic investing, sat alongside an august collection of nuclear scientists, former cabinet secretaries and members of Congress to advise Hillary Clinton on the use of tactical nuclear weapons and on other crucial arms control issues.

“We had no idea who he was,” one board member told ABC News.

Rajiv Fernando is seated on the far left of the image.more +Fernando’s lack of any known background in nuclear security caught the attention of several board members, and when ABC News first contacted the State Department in August 2011 seeking a copy of his resume, the emails show that confusion ensued among the career government officials who work with the advisory panel.
“I have spoken to [State Department official and ISAB Executive Director Richard Hartman] privately, and it appears there is much more to this story that we’re unaware of,” wrote Jamie Mannina, the press aide who fielded the ABC News request. “We must protect the Secretary’s and Under Secretary’s name, as well as the integrity of the Board. I think it’s important to get down to the bottom of this before there’s any response.
“As you can see from the attached, it’s natural to ask how he got onto the board when compared to the rest of the esteemed list of members,” Mannina wrote, referring to an attachment that was not included in the recent document release.

​

Fernando himself would not answer questions from ABC News in 2011 about what qualified him for a seat on the board or led to his appointment. When ABC News finally caught up with Fernando at the 2012 Democratic convention, he became upset and said he was "not at liberty" to speak about it. Security threatened to have the ABC News reporter arrested.

ABC News
At the 2012 Democratic National Convention, ABC News' Brian Ross asks Rajiv Fernando about his 2011 appointment to the State Department's International Security Advisory Board.more +Fernando's expertise appeared to be in the arena of high-frequency trading -- a form of computer-generated stock trading. At the time of his appointment, he headed a firm, Chopper Trading, that was a leader in that field.
Fernando's history of campaign giving dated back at least to 2003 and was prolific -- and almost exclusively to Democrats. He was an early supporter of Hillary Clinton's 2008 bid for president, giving maximum contributions to her campaign, and to HillPAC, in 2007 and 2008. He also served as a fundraising bundler for Clinton, gathering more than $100,000 from others for her White House bid. After Barack Obama bested Clinton for the 2008 nomination, Fernando became a major fundraiser for the Obama campaign. Prior to his State Department appointment, Fernando had given between $100,000 and $250,000 to the William J. Clinton Foundation, and another $30,000 to a political advocacy group, WomenCount, that indirectly helped Hillary Clinton retire her lingering 2008 campaign debts by renting her campaign email list.
The appointment qualified Fernando for one of the highest levels of top secret access, the emails show. Among those with whom Fernando served on the International Security Advisory Board was David A. Kay, the former head of the Iraq Survey Group and United Nations Chief Weapons Inspector; Lt. Gen. Brent Scowcroft, a former National Security Advisor to two presidents; two former congressmen; and former Sen. Chuck Robb. William Perry, the former Secretary of Defense, chaired the panel.
“It is certainly a serious, knowledgeable and experienced group of experts,” said Bruce Blair, a Princeton professor whose principal research covers the technical and policy steps on the path toward the verifiable elimination of nuclear weapons. “Much of the focus has been on questions of nuclear stability and the risks of nuclear weapons use by Russia and Pakistan.”
The newly released emails reveal that after ABC News started asking questions in August 2011, a State Department official who worked with the advisory board couldn’t immediately come up with a justification for Fernando serving on the panel. His and other emails make repeated references to “S”; ABC News has been told this is a common way to refer to the Secretary of State.
“The true answer is simply that S staff (Cheryl Mills) added him,” wrote Wade Boese, who was Chief of Staff for the Office of the Under Secretary of State for Arms Control and International Security, in an email to Mannina, the press aide. “Raj was not on the list sent to S; he was added at their insistence.”

​

Mills, a former deputy White House counsel, was serving as Clinton’s chief of staff at the time, and has been a longtime legal and political advisor.
Four minutes later, Boese wrote to his boss, Richard Hartman, to alert him that Ellen Tauscher, who was then the Undersecretary for State for Arms Control and International Security Affairs, would be meeting with Mills to devise a response to the ABC News request.
“Sorry this has become a headache,” he wrote.
Hartman wrote the next morning to say he would “come up and brief you... about where Raj Fernando stands and the ABC News investigative journalist inquiries. You do need to hear about it.” Separately, in an email to another official, Hartman noted that it was "Cheryl Mills, who added Mr. Fernando’s name to the list of ISAB nominees."
When ABC News sent a follow-up inquiry about the qualifications of another board appointee, Massachusetts state Rep. Harold P. Naughton, Jr., Boese wrote to Hartman to say the department would have a far easier time explaining Naughton’s credentials. “The case for Rep. Naughton is an easy one. We are on solid ground,” he said.

​

By this point, Fernando himself had been looped into the discussion. He and Hartman exchanged emails, but the entire text of Fernando’s letter was redacted by the State Department prior to its release.
Twice, Mannina was instructed to stall with ABC News, before Mills sent a public statement. It announced Fernando’s abrupt decision to step down.

​

“Mr. Fernando chose to resign from the Board earlier this month citing additional time needed to devote to his business,” it reads, noting that membership on the board was required to be “fairly balanced in terms of the points of view represented and the functions to be performed by the advisory committee.”
“As President and CEO of Chopper Trading, Mr. Fernando brought a unique perspective to ISAB. He has years of experience in the private sector in implementing sophisticated risk management tools, information technology and international finance,” the statement says.
The statement was emailed to ABC News two days after Fernando’s resignation and four days after the initial ABC News inquiry.
Fernando’s letter of resignation to Clinton says he “intended to devote a substantial amount of time to the work of ISAB in furtherance of its objectives. However, the unique, unexpected, and excessive volatility in the international markets these last few weeks and months require[d him] to focus [his] energy on the operations of [his] company.”
Additional emails collected from Hillary Clinton’s personal server only hint at her possible involvement in Fernando’s selection to the board. The records request for documents about Fernando’s appointment produced a chain of correspondence from 2010 with the subject line “ISAB” -- or International Security Advisory Board. In those, Mills writes, “The secretary had two other names she wanted looked at.” The names are redacted. Mills then forwarded the response to “H,” which is the designation for Clinton’s personal account. Three minutes later Clinton forwards the email chain to another State official and says simply, “Pls print.”
The Clinton campaign declined requests from ABC News to make Mills available for an interview. Campaign spokesman Nick Merrill deferred to the U.S. State Department, which issued a statement saying the board’s charter specifically calls for a membership that reflects “a balance of backgrounds and points of view. Furthermore, it is not unusual for the State Department Chief of Staff to be involved in personnel matters.”

As is customary with a new administration, the make-up of the board changed substantially when Clinton took over the State Department, according to Amb. James Woolsey, who served on the panel from 2006 to 2009. But the seriousness of its mission remained the same.
He said the board’s primary purpose was to gather an array of experts on nuclear weapons and arms control to constantly assess and update the nation’s nuclear strategy.
“Most things that involve nuclear weapons and nuclear strategy are dealt with at a pretty sensitive basis -- top secret,” he said, noting that participants meet in a secure facility and are restricted in what materials they can discuss.
That is not typically the realm of political donors, Woolsey said. Though, he added, it would not be impossible for someone lacking a security background to make a contribution to the panel. “It would depend on how smart and dedicated this person was... I would think you would have to devote some real time to getting up to speed,” he said.
Fernando is now a board member of a private group called the American Security Project, which describes itself as “a nonpartisan organization created to educate the American public and the world about the changing nature of national security in the 21st Century.” He also identifies himself online as a member of the Chicago Council on Global Affairs and says he's involved with a Washington think tank.
And he continued to donate to Democrats, and to Clinton. He emerged as one of the first “bundlers” to raise money for Clinton’s 2016 bid. And in July 2015, he hosted a fundraiser for Clinton at his Chicago home. Fernando has also continued to donate to the Clinton Foundation. He now is listed on the charity’s website as having given between $1 million and $5 million.
About six months after Fernando resigned from the State Department advisory board, he was invited to attend a White House State Dinner, honoring the British Prime Minister. And this summer Fernando will serve as a super delegate at the Democratic National Convention. According to Chicago media reports, he has committed to supporting Clinton.

Slip of the tongue?


At the White House on Thursday, minutes after President Obama officially endorsed Hillary Clinton in the 2016 election, Press Secretary Josh Earnest admitted that the FBI probe into her emails is a “criminal investigation.”


Not to worry, I’m sure his comment will be taken out of context.

WATCH: ABC NEWS JUST RELEASED A BOMBSHELL REPORT ON HILLARY CLINTON

Posted by The Right Scoop on Jun 10, 2016 at 10:32 AM in Featured Politics | 272 Comments

Good Morning America ran a bombshell report on Hillary Clinton this morning, showing how a major Clinton Foundation and Democrat donor, who had no known national security or intelligence experience, was placed on the top-secret State Department International Security Advisory Board.

When ABC News learned of Rajiv Fernando’s 2011 appointment, they sought him out at the 2012 Democratic Convention to ask him how he had gotten this appointment. But he got angry and threatened them with arrest if they didn’t leave.

Two days later he resigned from the board.

So why the report now? New emails released by the State Department in a lawsuit from Citizens United show that Cheryl Mills, Hillary’s Chief of Staff, added Fernando to the list. His name wasn’t on the original list, the email noted, but was added at the Secretary’s insistence.

The emails also show that when ABC News started asking the State Department about Fernando’s appointment, Cheryl Mills told the press spox to stall for 24 hours. The next day Fernando resigned.

Guess who refused to comment on the story? Hillary Clinton’s campaign.

Watch the entire report below:

Clinton Foundation donor got post on intelligence advisory board even though he had no experience

The donor, Raj Fernando, Bill's left, spent heavily to get Hillary in the White House in 2008 and is one of her superdelegates and bundlers now. He's also donated as much as $5 million to the foundation.

Newly released State Department emails reveal that a donor to the Clinton Foundation received a post on a intelligence advisory board even though he was comparatively unqualified for the position. The donor, Raj Fernando, is pictured above.

[h=2]Ralph Peters Blasts Clinton Over Emails: Petraeus Stole a Candy Bar, Clinton Robbed Fort Knox[/h]SHARE

EMAIL





BY: Jack Heretik
June 10, 2016 6:03 pm

Lt. Col. Ralph Peters (U.S. Army, Ret.) blasted Hillary Clinton on Friday over her use of a private email server and the revelation that some of her emails dealt with classified drone strikes.
While appearing on Fox Business Network, Peters commented on the sensitivity of the operations involved and how dangerous her use of the private server was.
“The thing that struck me is these emails were about drone strikes before they happened,” co-host David Asman said. “If somebody had gotten into that private server of hers, through which these emails traveled, somebody would have had information about a strike before it happened, right?”
“Oh, absolutely. And as a former intelligence officer, I can guarantee you people were in her private server,” Peters said. “One of the things the Wall Street Journal article featured was a Clinton supporter saying, ‘there’s no evidence that anybody was reading her emails.’ Good intelligence agencies don’t leave footprints. You don’t know they’re reading your stuff.”
Peters said that Clinton knew what she was doing at the time.
“But you said these are very classified operations. That would mean to me, that the emails were very classified. Should not the secretary of state had known that she was putting classified emails up in her private server?” Asman asked.
“She knew. There’s no question about it,” Peters said.
“There’s no question in your mind?” Asman asked.
“None. None whatsoever,” Peters said.
“Because she has said categorically, they were not only not labeled classified, but I would have known if they were classified,” Asman said.
“Well, it’s certainly true she would have known and she did know,” Peters said. “They weren’t labeled classified, any of these messages, because she made it a point not to put labels on them.”
Asman later asked Peters to compare David Petraeus’ email controversy with Clinton’s.
“David Petraeus stole a candy bar. Hillary Clinton robbed Fort Knox,” Peters said.

Slip of the tongue?


At the White House on Thursday, minutes after President Obama officially endorsed Hillary Clinton in the 2016 election, Press Secretary Josh Earnest admitted that the FBI probe into her emails is a “criminal investigation.”


Not to worry, I’m sure his comment will be taken out of context.

See! I told you so.


http://www.breitbart.com/2016-presi...o-idea-whether-hillary-clinton-case-criminal/


When asked whether he had misspoken, Earnest feigned ignorance about the case.


“I think what I’ve said is on a number of occasions that I have not been briefed by the Department of Justice about the investigation,” Earnest said, ignoring the question and directing the questioner to the Department of Justice.


Might as well have said, I don’t think what I said was what I said.

Hillary Clinton’s State Dept. shut down an investigation into the mosque Orlando killer Omar Mir Siddique Mateen attended because it “unfairly singled out Muslims.”
The Fort Pierce Islamic Center, where Mateen worshipped several times a week, was under investigation by both the FBI and DHS as early as 2011 for ties to a worldwide Islamic movement known as Tablighi Jamaal which was linked to several terrorist organizations.
But the investigation was shut down under pressure from the Clinton-ran State Dept. and DHS’s Civil Rights and Civil Liberties Office out of fear of offending Muslims, according to recently retired DHS agent Philip Haney.


“The FBI had opened cases twice on him, and yet they found no evidence to charge him; it means they didn’t go through the same basic, analytical process that I went through over a three- or four-hour period in which I was able to link the mosque to my previous cases,” he told WND on Sunday.
In other words, the FBI had limited options at stopping Mateen because it was ordered to back off its investigation into his mosque.
Both Clinton and the Obama administration have a history of enabling Islamic terrorism.
In 2012, Clinton’s State Dept. was backing al-Qaeda in Iraq, which morphed into ISIS, and other Islamic extremist groups as a proxy army to topple Syrian President Bashir al-Assad.
“The Salafist [sic], the Muslim Brotherhood and AQI [al-Qaeda in Iraq] are the major forces driving the insurgency in Syria,” a leaked memo between her State Dept. and the Pentagon stated. “The West, Gulf countries, and Turkey support [this] opposition, while Russia, China and Iran ‘support the [Assad] regime.’”

This secret document confirms that Clinton’s State Dept. – and the Obama administration in general – were directly responsible for the rise of ISIS, which is now targeting the West.
The former head of the Defense Intelligence Agency, Lieutenant General Michael Flynn, confirmed the document’s importance.
“I don’t know that [the Obama administration] turned a blind eye [to ISIS], I think it was a decision; I think it was a willful decision,” he said.
Clinton even admitted some responsibility.
“…The United States had – to be fair – we had helped create the problem we’re now fighting,” she said in an interview with Fox anchor Greta Van Susteren. “When the Soviet Union invaded Afghanistan, we had this brilliant idea we were going to come to Pakistan and create a force on Mujahideen, equip them with Stinger missiles and everything else to go after the Soviets inside Afghanistan.”
“Now you look back [and] the people we’re fighting today, we were supporting in the fight against the Soviets.”
Additionally, on Oct. 1 President Obama authorized a shipment of guns to ISIS-linked militants in Syria – the exact same day he demanded more gun control in response to Umpqua Community College shooting in Ore.
“The approval came at a National Security Council meeting on Thursday,” CNN reported at the time. “…The President also emphasized to his team that the U.S. would continue to support the Syrian opposition as Russia enters the war-torn country.”
But as his administration admitted in the 2012 leaked memo, the “Syrian opposition” is predominantly jihadist militants – just like the Orlando killer.

[h=2]In 2004, Elizabeth Warren Called Hillary Clinton a Donor Puppet[/h]SHARE

BY: Chandler Gill
June 13, 2016 10:13 am

Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D., Mass.), who endorsed Hillary Clinton for president last week, called Clinton a donor puppet for corporate credit card companies in a 2004 interview.
Warren was describing a bankruptcy bill that former President Clinton vetoed, due to Clinton pressure. However, she voted in favor of this bill.
When asked why Clinton would do this after she so steadily got support to help kill it, Warren gave her honest opinion. Warren said that Clinton came up to her and spoke about how they needed to “stop that awful bill.”
“As Sen. Clinton, the pressures are very different. It’s a well-financed industry and a lot of people don’t realize that the industry that gave the most money to Washington over the past few years. It was not the oil industry, it was not pharmaceuticals. It was consumer credit products. Those are the people, the credit card companies have been giving money and they have influence,” she said.
“And Mrs. Clinton was one of them as senator,” Bill Moyers said.
“She has taken money from the groups and more to the point, she worries about them as a constituency,” she said.
“So, what does this mean though to these people, these millions of people out there whom the politicians cavort in front of this favoring of the middle class and then are beholden to the powerful interest that undermine the middle class?” Moyers asked. “What does this say about politics today?”
Warren continued to say that this is the scary part of democracy today. She explained that as these companies grow and make more and more profit, they are then able to allocate more money towards lobbying in order to gain more influence in politics.
This comes in the wake of speculation that Warren is on the list as a potential Clinton running mate.

[h=1]Roger Stone: It’s Time America Got Some Answers About Huma Abedin[/h]

[h=2]Chic gal pal? Mild mannered politician’s wife? Harmless clotheshorse? Saudi plant? Innocent aide? Handler?[/h]Huma Abedin is Vice Chair of Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign. But Huma is more, much more than that. She is the person closest to the most powerful woman in American politics and perhaps the next President. Huma has been described variously as Hillary’s “body woman,” a sort of glorified go-to personal maid, gentle confidant, and by others as an Islamic spy. She may be all of these things, because as we shall see, Huma Abedin has an interesting and complex career history.
Abedin was deeply involved with the establishment of Hillary’s private email server, which was used for all of her work as Secretary of State. Now, since we know Hillary had hundreds of classified or top-secret documents on her vulnerable server (despite her early lies saying she did not), any faith in Huma’s judgment — at the very least — has been demolished. You will soon ask yourself, “how did this woman get a security clearance?”
She was born Huma Mahmood Abedin in 1976 in Kalamazoo, Michigan. Her father, Syed Zainul Abedin, was Indian and born in New Delhi. In the early 1970s, he was affiliated with the Muslim Students Association at Western Michigan University. The Muslim Students Association or MSA was started in 1963 by Saudi Arabia’s biggest charity, the Muslim World League, a group formed and funded by the Kingdom to spread Islam throughout the world.
Her mother, Saleha Mahmood Abedin, was born in Pakistan. Saleha received her Ph.D. in Sociology from the University of Pennsylvania in 1977.
Two years after Huma was born, the family moved to Jeddah, Saudi Arabia and with the patronage of Abdullah Omar Naseef of the Muslim World League, founded the Institute of Muslim Minority Affairs with offices in Saudi Arabia and London, England. In the 1980’s Syed Abedin was a counselor of the Muslim World League. After his death in 1993, his wife Saleha took over and serves as director of the IMMA (Institute of Muslim Minority Affairs) and as the editor of that organization’s academic magazine, the Journal of Muslim Minority Affairs. More recently she still edits the Journal and is also a part of the administration of Dar Al-Hekma Women’s College.
Naseef’s connections to the entire Abedin family are significant — and, for reasons you’ll see in a moment, very troubling. As Vanity Fair wrote, during “his early years as the patron of the Abedins’ journal, Nasseef was the secretary-general of the Muslim World League” and gives more shocking details about the Abedins:

It turns out the Journal of Muslim Minority Affairs is an Abedin family business. Huma was an assistant editor there between 1996 and 2008. Her brother, Hassan, 45, is a book-review editor at the Journal and was a fellow at the Oxford Center for Islamic Studies, where Nasseef is chairman of the board of trustees. Huma’s sister, Heba, 26, is an assistant editor at the Journal.
​

That’s what all the fuss is about. Since 1962, the Muslim World League has been funded by the Saudi government to the tune of more than $1.3 billion.
Naseef, the Muslim World League, and the government of Pakistan created the Rabita Trust in 1988. Naseef was a sponsor and financial supporter of Syed Abedin’s IMMA.
Just a month after the 9/11 jihadist attack left thousands dead and brought down the World Trade Center, President George W. Bush’s Executive Order designated the Rabita Trust as a Specially Designated Global Terrorist Entity and the Treasury Department froze its assets on October 12, 2001.
Naseef founded the Rabita Trust and remains involved with it to this day. A Treasury Department press release issued when Rabita Trust’s assets were frozen indicated that Rabita Trust is headed by Wa’el Hamza Jalaidan, one of the founders of al-Qaida with bin Laden. He was the logistics chief of bin Laden’s organization and fought on bin Laden’s side in Afghanistan. Jalaidan himself was branded a Specially Designated Global Terrorist Entity by the United States Treasury Department, and his assets have been frozen, as well.
But the connections between the Abedin’s Saudi benefactor, the Muslim World League, and al-Qaeda don’t end there.
In 1984, foreign mujahidin fighters were streaming in from all over the world to an office in Peshawar, Pakistan known as Maktab al-Khidamat or MAK.
MAK had been created by two Muslims to recruit and raise money: a radical cleric named Abdullah Azzam and Azzam’s protege, the infamous leader behind 9/11, the Saudi Arabian named Osama bin Laden. Before and after his creation of MAK, Azzam subsisted onmoney provided by the Muslim World League:

Azzam, now determined to move to Pakistan, obtained a teaching position at the newly established International Islamic University of Islamabad, whose foreign faculty were paid directly by the Muslim World League. Thus, from his arrival in Pakistan in December 1981 until his permanent move to Peshawar in 1986, the leader of the Arab Afghans subsisted on a Muslim World League salary.



​

Donations to MAK came from a number of “Islamic charities” such as the Saudi Red Crescent, as well as some Saudi Arabian princes and mosques.
The office that bin Laden and the other MAK founders were based out of 1984 in Peshawar was the office of the Muslim World League and the Muslim Brotherhood. The Muslim World League was also a principal funder of MAK, bringing in Saudi funds that would eventually go to jihad against the West.
The head of the Muslim World League when their offices in Pakistan were used by Bin Laden, Zawahiri and Azzam in 1984 was none other than the Abedin’s benefactor, Abdullah Omar Naseef.
Naseef’s Rabita Trust, a subsidiary of the Muslim World League, is also connected to a U.S.-based group, called the SAAR Network, through two officers — Dr. Abdullah Omar Naseef and Abdullah al-Obaid. The SAAR Network was the focus of a March 2002 raid led by United States authorities for the network’s alleged ties to al Qaeda.
This brings us back to Huma Abedin. She lived in Saudi Arabia until she was 17, while her family worked closely with Naseef. Back in the U.S., she studied at George Washington University. Two years later she, along with Monica Lewinsky, became interns at the White House under Bill and Hillary Clinton. Monica served as Bill’s intern – until their sexual relationship got out of hand and onto her blue dress – and Huma served as Hillary’s intern. In 1998, as the Lewinsky sex scandal was raging, she along with other staff girlsformed a sort of shield around the humiliated First Lady.
While she worked at the White House, Abedin was an editor at the family business—the Journal of Muslim Minority Affairs.
When Clinton ran for the Senate in 2000, Huma moved up the ladder to become her aide and personal adviser.
When the towers fell in 2001, Hillary Clinton was the Senator from New York. When the assets of the Rabita Trust were frozen and the group declared a terror funder, there was no point where Sen. Clinton’s assistant Huma Abedin stepped forward to shed light on her family’s benefactor Abdullah Omar Naseef, the Muslim World League, or the Rabita Trust.
Sen. Clinton and Huma Abedin betrayed every New Yorker and every America with their silence.
Also worth noting: from April 2005 to March 2006, Huma was paid a total of $27,999.92, yet on September 18, 2006, she bought an apartment in Washington D.C. costing $649,000.
The question here is, on an annual salary of no more than $28,000, where did the money come from? We’ve caught of the greatest spies due to their spending well beyond their salaries.
At the least, what to make of someone who has lived for 17 years in Saudi Arabia, with parents who have close, long-standing ties with people connected to terrorist organizations, and then comes to the U.S. and within two years gets a job as the First Lady’s assistant?
By 2008, she was Hillary’s traveling chief of staff and was always at Hillary’s side. In 2009, she was appointed Deputy Chief of Staff to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. At this time, Huma had her name removed from the Journal of Muslim Minority Affairs masthead.
In 2010, Huma married Congressman Anthony Weiner. In 2011, her husband was caught sexting — sending pictures of his erection to several women. He resigned from Congress that same year.
Huma’s luck seemed to know no end when Hillary Clinton personally signed off on a controversial deal in 2012 that allowed Huma to simultaneously work for the State Department and a private New York firm with deep ties to the Clinton family foundation. Mrs. Clinton personally signed a title change form that approved of the transition from being her Deputy Chief of Staff, to an SGE (special government employee), the equivalent of a contractor with special privileges. This allowed Huma to work for both the State department and for the Teneo Group. Some of you might remember the Teneo Group as a top consulting firm run by Bill Clinton gatekeeper Doug Band. Bill Clinton was also on the payroll of Teneo. From June 2012 to February 2013, she held four jobs. She was Hillary’s State Department aide, a consultant at Teneo Group, she worked and was paid a salary at the Clinton Foundation, and she worked as Hillary’s private personal assistant. Huma was triple-dipping.
There were several issues being investigated both internally by the State Department and Sen. Charles Grassley of the Senate Judiciary Committee for conflicts of interest and embezzlement. She filed inaccurate time sheets overpaying herself $10,000. Mr. Grassley has also questioned whether the deal with Abedin really met the requirements for a special government employee status. One of those requirements is that someone’s work as a contractor be different enough from the original job to warrant giving the person contractor status. Documents acquired by the Washington Times show that she told State officials that she planned to do the same kind of work as an SGE that she did as Deputy Chief of Staff.
She became part of Hillary’s transition team in 2013, helping her to return to private life. She continued her work at the Clinton Foundation and set up her own consulting firm,Zain Endeavors LLC.
On October 16, 2015, Abedin testified in a closed session before the House Select Committee on Benghazi, in a session that was expected to focus on the 2012 Benghazi attack during which Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens and three other Americans were killed. She said, “I came here today to be as helpful as I could be to the committee. I wanted to honor the service of those lost and injured in the Benghazi attacks,” adding she was “honored” to work for Clinton at State and “proud” of her service there. Representative Lynn Westmoreland, a Republican panel member, said Abedin frequently answered questions with responses of “‘I don’t remember’ and ‘I don’t recollect.'”
There is no doubt that she and Hillary have an extremely close relationship. She has been loyal and faithful to Hillary for twenty years. “I have one daughter. But if I had a second daughter, it would be Huma.” So spoke Hillary in 2010. She even visited with Huma’s mother Saleha in Saudi Arabia in 2011, telling her that Huma’s position was “very important and sensitive.” Saleha is reportedly an outspoken advocate for genital mutilation for girls in the Islamic world.
So how has the media dealt with Huma Abedin? In short, they haven’t. The family’s critics have been attacked and labeled as conspiracy theorists.
One exception to this was the February 2016 issue of Vanity Fair. Author William D Cohen’s story, titled “Is Huma Abedin Hillary Clinton’s Secret Weapon or Her Next Big Problem?” tackled some of the issues I have gone over in this piece. It was well written, informative, and controversial. The backlash was immediate.
Media Matters for America, Hillary Clinton’s private propaganda machine, went into overdrive, putting out a response to Cohen’s article that attacked his credibility and just about every fact he had raised in his piece. According to Lee Stranahan writing in Breitbart, the Media Matters article was filled with false information and smears to protect the Clinton campaign.
This isn’t some minor aide. Huma Abedin has been at Clinton’s side for decades, and it’s time America got some answers.

Hillary Clinton: Increase Outreach to Muslims, Ban ‘Assault Weapons’

During a June 13 interview on CNN, Hillary Clinton said the U.S. needs to increase its outreach to Muslims, while simultaneously pursuing a ban on “assault weapons” and .50 caliber rifles.

Clinton’s comments come one day after alleged Islamic terrorist Omar Mateen walked into the gun-free zone at Pulse Orlando and killed 50, wounding 53 others.
Chris Cuomo started the interview by pointing out that Clinton is under increased scrutiny for her refusal to talk about radical Islamic terror. He said, “[Many point out that] President Obama won’t use the words ‘radical Islamic terror,’ that it seems to be either a fear or a protective instinct about blaming the religion. You are now coming under scrutiny about what you will call this.”
He asked pointedly, “Do you believe that this is radical Islamism or radical Islamic terror?”
Clinton quickly sidestepped the question by saying, “First all, it matters what we do more than what we say. It mattered that we got bin Laden, not what name we called him.” She went on to say, “We face terrorist enemies who use Islam to slaughter innocent people,” the implication being that it’s not Islam’s fault, but the fault of those who hijack Islam.
The former secretary of state said whether one calls it “radical jihadism or radical Islamism … they mean the same thing.” Then she stressed her belief that we must increase outreach not simply to American Muslims, but to Muslims around the world.
Cuomo followed with a question about guns, and Clinton lamented the absence of a ban on .50 caliber rifles. For the record, a .50 caliber has never been used in a terror attack or high-profile crime in the U.S.
Clinton also lamented the lack of an “assault weapons” ban and of licensing requirements for rifle owners in Florida. She suggested the implementation of more gun control is part of the way forward.


from the above: Cuomo followed with a question about guns, and Clinton lamented the absence of a ban on .50 caliber rifles. For the record, a .50 caliber has never been used in a terror attack or high-profile crime in the U.S

Clinton responded to the Islamic terror attack in Orlando in a speech on Monday in which she both claimed that it was not a day for politics and slipped in references to her political presidential rival Trump. She said it was past time for the governments of Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and Kuwait to stop allowing their citizens to fund extremist terrorists and to “stop supporting radical schools and mosques.” She claimed to be an ally of LGBT people.
Sen. Bernie Sanders called out former Secretary of State Clinton in an interview with CNN’s Jake Tapper:

If you ask me about the Clinton Foundation — do I have a problem when a sitting Secretary of State and a foundation run by her husband collects many millions of dollars from foreign governments, governments which are dictatorships, you don’t have a lot of civil liberties with democratic rights in Saudi Arabia. You don’t have a lot of respect there for divergent opposition points of view, for gay rights, for women rights. Do I have a problem with that? Yeah, I do.
​

Last November Sen. Rand Paul called out Clinton for saying she supports women’s rights when the Clinton Foundation took $25 million from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. “She has no leg to stand on things. She’s going to defend women’s rights when she’s taken money from some of the worst abusers of women’s rights in the world.”
