  • The crumbling Clinton criminal enterprise

    Sadness reigns in progressives’ America – a grief so profound as to provoke outbreaks of acute liberal insanity. But the grief, anxiety, and outright fear affecting progressive America for the moment must surely pale against those same emotions within Clinton, Incorporated, whose future fortunes have done a disastrous one-eighty since early Wednesday morning.

    Think about it for a moment: with no more promise of future access to the presidential inner circle, what third-world government or major global enterprise truly wants to pay a cool half-mil to a now not so cool Bill for his special insights? Do you suppose that all those Wall Street swells are breathlessly waiting to hear the unique perspectives of a now not the first female president at a tidy 250 grand a pop? Sure they are.

    But of course, the influence-peddling speeches were just chump change, mere walking around money for high rollers like Hill and Bill. The real cash, the huge multi-million-dollar payoffs that even bought pre-presidential secretary of state access, has until now come in the form of donations to the various non-profit entities the Clintons created to funnel their filthy lucre into – huge amounts of cash that could be washed, rinsed, dried, possibly even nationally dyed before being made available to maintain their one-percent lifestyle. It occurs to me that perhaps there is no longer a waiting list of sheiks and Middle Eastern potentates eager to pony up petro-dollars to ensure that a Clinton presidency maintains a firm grip on the now closed tap of federal petroleum resources, as the current occupant of the Oval Office long has.

    In six months or so, when the new U.S. attorney general appoints a special prosecutor to investigate the Clinton Foundation and all its related entities, does any of us really believe that Fortune 500 companies are going to be as keen as they once were to have themselves listed as donors to anything that has the Clinton brand on it? Without the family-White House link, will billionaires feel so warmly inclined toward neophyte investor and Clinton son-in-law Mark Mezvinsky, whose now defunct Greek hedge fund apparently “lost” huge sums of its investments? Ever wonder just where “lost” investments end up?

    What could be even more disastrous for the Clintons would be if many of the major donors to their charities should decide they’ve been sold a bill of goods and demand refunds of very substantial quids, for which there will not now, nor ever, be the much anticipated quos. With reports that very little of the Clinton charitable donations have actually been applied to charitable deeds, such donors would seem to have a reasonably credible motive for demanding that their donations be returned. Just a few demands could trigger a financial run on the charity itself and multiple lawsuits against other associated Clinton business enterprises, for profit or not. How could the Clintons defend against such claims, with the response that the donations were actually made to obtain political favor?

    With new donations dwindling and donors demanding refunds, lawsuits piling up, and an aggressive special prosecutor seeking evidence of ongoing crimes, it’s quite likely that the future is not going to be quite as rosy as the Clintons had pictured it prior to Tuesday. It is even more likely that it’s going to end in a way that at least half of America is going to find extremely gratifying.

    It’s my opinion that the idea of Crooked Hillary escaping justice was a hugely motivating factor for voting against her, even by those who didn’t like Trump. They were adamant they did not want to see the Democrats reward her for her corruption.

    And for those of you who will be quick to respond that Obama will simply pardon the Clintons, you will only be partially correct. He can pardon them for federal offenses. However, he has no authority to pardon them for future federal offenses, from state offenses, or from civil lawsuits arising from their corrupt behaviors. That reality leaves a lot of prosecutorial and litigation doors open to a pair of grifters with a long list of political enemies

  • Did the NYPD force the FBI to act on Weiner?

    According to a Breitbart article discussing the reasons for the FBI’s renewed interest in the Clinton scandals, that move came at the insistence of the New York Police Department, who were the LEOs who claimed first possession and had first access to pervert Anthony Weiner’s laptop. The source for Breitbart was Erik Prince, former Navy SEAL and founder/former CEO of Blackwater, who says he has sources within the NYPD who have assured him that the Democrat pedophile’s computer contains an ambitious prosecutor’s dream’s worth of evidence of criminality against many Democrat politicians in Congress – and also, of course, the Clintons and their immediate entourage.

    According to Prince, as quoted by Breitbart:

    “They found State Department emails. They found a lot of other really damning criminal information, including money laundering, including the fact that Hillary went to this sex island with convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein. Bill Clinton went there more than 20 times. Hillary Clinton went there at least six times,” he said.

    “The amount of garbage that they found in these emails, of criminal activity by Hillary, by her immediate circle, and even by other Democratic members of Congress was so disgusting they gave it to the FBI, and they said, ‘We’re going to go public with this if you don’t reopen the investigation and you don’t do the right thing with timely indictments,’” Prince explained.

    Note that word disgusting and consider that those who are disgusted are members of NYPD, some of the most hardened dicks in the world, investigators who have seen every form of human perversion and criminality the mind can imagine. And they were disgusted by what that computer contains about the Clintons and their cronies.

    Breitbart goes on:

    “There is all kinds of criminal culpability through all the emails they’ve seen of that 650,000, including money laundering, underage sex, pay-for-play, and, of course, plenty of proof of inappropriate handling, sending/receiving of classified information, up to SAP level Special Access Programs,” he stated.

    “So the plot thickens. NYPD was pushing because, as an article quoted one of the chiefs – that’s the level just below commissioner – he said as a parent, as a father with daughters, he could not let that level of evil continue,” Prince said.

    “That level of evil”? That a chief of the NYPD uses the descriptive evil rather than criminal should speak worlds as to just what the Clinton’s really are – lawless and immoral predators, as so many of us have been insisting for years. But according to Prince, his NYPD sources say they have faced nothing but obstruction from the federal Justice Department, which is easy to believe when you consider that sources within the FBI have been saying the same thing.

    And that, folks, is reason enough to vote against this evil criminal enterprise the Clintons have constructed. If Hillary gains control of the Justice Department, all her evildoing and criminality will be swept under the rug of history. We must follow the example of the NYPD and not let that happen.

  • William Safire justified: Hillary Clinton is a congenital liar

    In a notorious 1996 New York Times essay, pundit William Safire famously said this of Hillary Clinton:

    Americans of all political persuasions are coming to the sad realization that our First Lady – a woman of undoubted talents who was a role model for many in her generation – is a congenital liar.

    Drip by drip, like Whitewater torture, the case is being made that she is compelled to mislead, and to ensnare her subordinates and friends in a web of deceit.

    Could anyone who has followed her political activities since make any sensible rebuttal to Safire’s observation? As many of her critics have noted, Hillary Clinton will lie when she’d be far better served by the truth. Now here we are just days away from an election that could put this woman into the most powerful political position in the world, and apparently she’s still at it.

    Conservative site, 100% Fed Up, is reporting this (emphasis added):

    Campaigning in Florida on Tuesday, Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton claimed that she was in New York City on 9/11, when terrorists flew planes into the World Trade Center. She made her claim while discussing terrorism and the threat posed by ISIS.”I know what happened not far from here at Pulse night club in Orlando,” she said. “I was in New York City on 9/11 as one of the two senators. I will defeat ISIS. I will protect America.”

    Except that she wasn’t in New York City on 9/11; she was at her home in Washington, D.C. on the morning of that day of infamy and did not get to New York until the next day. Proof of her silly, useless lie is available from her own campaign media operation, the Clinton News Network, which in a 15-year commemoration of 9/11 featuring Clinton said this:

    When news broke of the first plane ripping through the north tower of the World Trade Center on the morning of September 11, Clinton had just left her house in Washington, D.C., and was on her way to the Senate. By the time she reached Capitol Hill, evacuations were already underway.

    Good grief! The woman is running for the nation’s highest office, and mere days before the election, she gratuitously lies to a crowd of supporters? Even the most naive political beginner would know that you don’t publicly lie about something that can be so easily checked. Had Hillary not been lying for so long, as Safire documents, we might attribute such a gaffe to the various head injuries she’s sustained or as a mental manifestation of the Parkinson’s disease some physicians suspect her to have. But no, her previous history all the way back to pre-Safire argues persuasively that this is one of those people whom many of us have met, and most of us have heard of, a person who simply can’t sort out truth from lies in her own mind and her own mouth. She will, in clear fact, lie when the truth would be to her advantage, as in Florida Tuesday.

    Hillary Clinton is, quite clearly, a congenital liar. But here’s the sobering thought to take away from this: if she can’t separate truth from lies, is she also incapable of distinguishing between honest and dishonest behavior? Her behavior as secretary of state would seem to indicate the answer is no, she can’t.

    And I ask you again today, folks: is this the kind of person we want leading our America?

  • Hillary’s server no security threat but Russians are altering emails?

    Let’s see if this old seasoned citizen can get his brain wrapped around this latest bit of liberal lying: Earlier this year the Clinton campaign leaders were on every available news forum in the country assuring us that even if Hillary had used her Chappaqua bathroom server to conduct the business of the nation, there was no harm because there was no evidence that anyone had hacked that totally vulnerable repository of State secrets. All the way back to the Whitewater scandal we have been hearing that first line of defense from the Clinton’s: “There is no evidence”. That has sometimes proved true because the Clinton’s long ago surrounded themselves with a picket of legal gunsels who have proved quite adept at burying incriminating documentation and some would even say witnesses.

    So we were pounded with the Democrat talking points that no emails had been hacked and no harm had been done so just move along here. I seem to recall security experts at the time opining that there was no way an unsecured server in Bill’s bathroom could NOT have NOT been hacked by even minimally competent foreign security services, reports that were roundly ridiculed by Democrat sock puppets. Remember the Dems insisting that it was laughable that the Russians could be in possession of all those emails residing in the Clinton crapper?
    But now that we know that WikiLeaks possibly has access to everything that was on that illegal server and is releasing it to the public in their digital version of death by a thousand cuts, what a difference has occurred in the Democrat position. Suddenly we are being told by all those same Democrat sock puppets who denied so vehemently that the Russians could conceivably be in possession of Hillary’s emails, that we can’t possibly believe the content of those emails being released by WikiLeaks because they have had their contents altered by the Russians to reflect badly on Clinton because Vladimir Putin is Donald Trump’s BFF and is interfering in the American election process on his behalf.

    And some of you want to put these disgustingly inconsistent, incompetent and insidious political thugs in charge of our country? There’s a term for folks like you, too.

  • Can’t find your gun’s manual? Here ya go…

    Can’t find your gun’s manual? Here ya go…

    Knowing that most of you who lurk here at TAH are owners of multiple firearms, I’d like to share this online resource which has saved Ol’ Poe’s increasingly forgetful butt on occasion when he’s needed a manual for a particular weapon and one is not easily at hand. Unfortunately, it’s been a while since I needed it so I had forgotten that the link is in my favorites until a buddy sent me an update today refreshing my increasingly unrefreshed mind.

    This extremely comprehensive chart has been around in one manifestation or another for many years so many of you may already have it; but for those who don’t and own many firearms, it could come in handy, especially if you’re in need of a manual when away from home, as you can pull your manual up on your phone. Sorry but Poe cannot vouch for how recent are the updates for individual manuals.
    Here ya go:

    Please do not share with any liberal Democrat acquaintances. The way things are going in this country we don’t want them knowing how to fix and/or maintain the few guns they do own.

  • Brazile merely the tipster…Clinton the true cheater in debate

    Donna Brazile is all over the news right now and the villain of the day on most conservative websites for her role in obtaining presidential debate questions in advance and then providing them to the Clinton campaign ahead of the actual televised event. There is much outrage over her clearly dishonest and unethical behavior, with her laughable denial captured on FOX News, looking full face into the camera and lying as only a Democrat pol can do when confronted with the hard evidence. Even the leftist media is seeking a bit of separation from this obvious cheater, as CNN has fired her as an on-air contributor.

    But all this outrage is misdirected; Brazile merely provided the heads-up, very detailed for sure, as she not only gave the Clinton campaign the word-for-word question about a very emotional public issue, contaminated drinking water in Flint, Michigan, but she also provided a physical description of the female questioner so there could be no mistaking when and where the stolen response needed to be used. Brazile even noted that the questioner had a rash from her public water contamination. As you could expect, armed with all that forbidden information, Clinton managed to be right on top of this emotional public issue during the debate, demonstrating how she’s a thoroughly prepared leader for America, right?

    Wrong! Wrong! Wrong! What this now exposed situation makes abundantly clear is that this contemptible woman, her loathsome campaign staff and the despicable Democrat party leadership, when offered the chance to cheat, even with tens of millions of Americans watching, had no reluctance to do so. Hillary Clinton went out there on that debate stage forearmed with at least one answer that we know of (and who knows how many others) looked straight into those cameras just like dishonest Donna Brazile and cheated before the entire world. And this is the person the Democrat party offers to America to be entrusted with our futures and our nation with all our national wealth?

    Crooked Hillary, indeed…and she infects all those around her.

  • Liberal In-sign-ity

    Washington Post just posted the confessional account of an über lib, vaginalized voter who used the very favorable platform of that Trump-detesting cage-liner to fess up to her criminal behavior in stealing Trump yard signs in her very tony, upper middle class, home town of Falmouth, coastal Maine. As she tells it, she and her liberal Democrat fem-pals just couldn’t stand to see all those Trump signs on display so they hopped in her hatchback and went about their mission of ripping them up and hauling them away. Until, that is, they got stopped by one of Falmouth’s finest who correctly informed them that they were engaged in criminal activities, a not unusual occurrence for Democrats during election season. After relieving the political plunderers of their burning burden of “about 40” Trump signs, the officer apparently wrote out a ticket, because the confessor and her cohorts received a court summons next day.

    Of course she’s now sorry for her lapse into liberal lawlessness, but like most lefties where nothing is really ever their fault, she sings a familiar refrain: Bush made her do it—Billy Bush that is, he of the infamous “Pussy” tape. Yep, it was that horrible tape that re-energized her mental anguish over some wealthy board member who had hit on her years before and now demanded her vengeance via vaginal vigilantism. Would that admission that her motivation was sexually inspired grant me the license to say it was her bush’s fault? In any event, the lady says she’s now contrite but as some cynical commenter noted she’s a writer and is probably trying to use the Donald’s candidacy as her springboard to national recognition. Amazing isn’t it how many of these women attacking Trump are in the process of opening businesses or expanding their careers? Guy’s not even elected yet and he’s already creating jobs at a faster clip than Obama after eight years of Democrat policies.

    What is perhaps the funniest revelation of this mea culpa is one which I’m sure neither the author nor the Washington Post intended but included nonetheless:

    The escapade was not premeditated: We simply jumped into my Jetta wagon, drove down to the strip and got to work. In all, it took less than 20 minutes. We grabbed about 40 signs and threw them in the hatchback. I hadn’t really thought about what I would do with the signs; I just wanted them gone. At the time, we believed we were doing the right thing. There were so many Trump signs up and down our main drag — it was destroying all sense of equilibrium in our community. (emphasis mine)

    And therein, folks, lies the tale.

  • Obama’s legacy has sailed…

    Obama’s legacy has sailed…

    A week ago Rick Moran wrote a piece here at American Thinker pointing out that the Obama administration was preparing to “send a message” to Russia and its geo-poker playing leader, Vladimir Putin. Following the Democrat party’s and Clinton campaign’s talking points that the WikiLeaks releases of embarrassing emails were the work of Russian intelligence, Obama was damn well going to show those sneaky Russians that they couldn’t get away with such blatant interference in an American presidential election. According to CIA officials, they were tasked by the White House to deliver the commander in chief a range of options. According to NBC News, what he quite publicly has selected to do is to conduct a “secret” retaliatory cyberwarfare attack on the Russians.

    Never mind that Obama and Hillary were quite critical of Russia’s Duma (Congressional) elections back in 2011, our sovereign leader simply cannot tolerate this pushy Putin prying into our presidential politics. This royal outrage has resulted in our grandly-announced “secret” cyber-attack on these nefarious Russians, an announcement that immediately got Putin’s attention and gave that Bolshevik bully pause for thought. Yep, he thought about it all right, just long enough to assemble a naval task force in the Baltic and sail it with all flags flying right down through the English Channel, blowing black bolshie smoke throughout the entire “in-your-face Obama” transit.

    Ship

    I’d love to be the fly on the wall to catch the expression on Obama’s face when he reviews the intelligence videos of this Russian carrier sailing merrily through waters long-considered off limits to Russian naval vessels. That is one huge Slavic middle finger and it clearly demonstrates to the world that American voters just might learn something from their Russian counterparts when it comes to electing a national leader with some steel in his spine and some weight between his legs. I know it sounds counterintuitive, folks, but seriously, don’t you think our great leader pales just a bit compared to Bad Vlad in this geo-political jousting? Ask the president of the Philippines for starters. He’s likely at the top of a growing and very long list. I think it is becoming clearly evident to the entire world that there is a markedly meaningful difference between the makings of a Russian KGB colonel and that of a Chicago community organizer.

    Obama’s legacy has sailed and future scholars may require SCUBA gear…
