Ukraine Also Sought to Interfere With US Election -- On Hillary's Side
I don't think this is going to get quite as much play as the Trump/Russia story.
Politico:Ukrainian efforts to sabotage Trump backfire Kiev officials are scrambling to make amends with the president-elect after quietly working to boost Clinton. By KENNETH P. VOGEL and DAVID STERN 01/11/17 05:05 AM EST Donald Trump wasn't the only presidential candidate whose campaign was boosted by officials of a former Soviet bloc country. Ukrainian government officials tried to help Hillary Clinton and undermine Trump by publicly questioning his fitness for office. They also disseminated documents implicating a top Trump aide in corruption and suggested they were investigating the matter, only to back away after the election. And they helped Clinton's allies research damaging information on Trump and his advisers, a Politico investigation found.Welp, that really hurts the media's Narrative. I can't imagine them writing this story without attempting to make some distinction from the Russia/Trump story, in order to say "But Trump's still worse, see?"
A Ukrainian-American operative who was consulting for the Democratic National Committee met with top officials in the Ukrainian Embassy in Washington in an effort to expose ties between Trump, top campaign aide Paul Manafort and Russia, according to people with direct knowledge of the situation. The Ukrainian efforts had an impact in the race, helping to force Manafort's resignation and advancing the narrative that Trump's campaign was deeply connected to Ukraine's foe to the east, Russia.
But they were far less concerted or centrally directed than Russia's alleged hacking and dissemination of Democratic emails.And there you go.

Nonsense.
Neither campaign was "boosted" by any former Soviet bloc country.
There was no effect on the outcome - hello, that is the ONLY meaningful definition of "boost" - by any action of any foreigners, OR their $$$$.

Waiting for the large-sample, scientific, carefully worded survey of voters in MI WI PA OH FL who were aware of any of the material related to the DNC emails, or whose vote was affected one way or the other by this material.
Oh.
That's right. That's the ONLY thing that would matter - and it was a complete non-factor. As the material received scant coverage, er, was spiked of course as it was potentially damaging to the press's candidate.

I was watching the clip of Trump at the press conference in the Scott Adams piece Fenelon linked and I noticed again that Trump leans forward when a question is asked so that he can be sure he hears the question.
I find that quite interesting because it shows to me that he is attempting to give his focus to the person asking the question. I've noticed that before and I don't remember Obama making any efforts like that but then again I tried (HAHAHAH 9 DAYS HAHAHAH) to never watch him.
Also, I heard the last bit of the press conference on Rush and I couldn't help but notice that no matter the question Trump reframed it how he wanted to answer and just didn't bother accepting the premise of the question. About. Damn. Time.

Hillary Clinton made it very clear that she was selling favors. My presumption is that there were also a number of donations from prominent Ukrainians to the Clinton Global Fund as well.
When the American media is telling you Clinton is a lock to win, and Clinton is telling you to pay now or pay more later....it actually makes sense that the Ukraine tried to do what they could early on...

Years back had a great opportunity to crush some furriners on that one. It was a casual situation, friendly, colleagues on a joint project, but still sharp.
"I dunno. Seems that because of the cowardice and stupidity of US allies, who refuse to act or take responsibility anywhere, even for their own defense, the US is constantly dragged into very dubious stuff (Bosnia/Kosovo was happening at the time). You guys are relying on us, in our own project here, to bail you out, make it happen - because only we have the will and capacity to do so.
So maybe we should turn it around. Americans should get to participate in YOUR elections."

>> unserious and incompetent PE.
Trump's nominees are a sea-change from the faculty-lounge orgy of Obama and the neocon lizards of Bush 43.
There are, basically, three (slightly overlapping) contingents. One is the Achievers - the billionaires and otherwise private-sector types who have Made It. These are in the financial/banking slots. The next is the Antagonists - those who have exercised or at least voiced opposition to certain Federal operations, and are now to take charge of those operations. The third is the Flunkies - those whose positions were driven by political need.
The ranks of the Flunkies are blissfully small, and likely to be held to a tight leash.
What's notably missing from Trump's appointments is the Faculty Lounge, and for that we should cheer.

Some of us have been whining that THIS approach must start to be the standard. It is the only way that the dumbed-down, misinformed electorate will be gradually brought back to a serious level. Simultaneously, it will put unbearable pressure on the press to improve their game - i.e., start asking serious intelligent questions based on a more reasonable premise.
As I said many times here, we'll know there's hope when an entire State or DOD or WH press conference is consumed by the spokesman debunking the idiotic false premises of the questions. Boring and jarring at first, it would quickly humiliate the press and inform the public.

Trump should freeze them out of the WH press pool, and not permit any of their reps access to anything his admin does. That means no ABC or CNN people at pressers.
He should command his staff, and his cabinet members to honor this freeze, not allowing any ABC or CNN reporters access of any kind.

You're not mixed up they are. Actually, they are simply enjoying their fake news. Podesta emails were gained via phishing. DNC emails were a result of a direct leak inside the DNC. Assange talked about having a source inside the DNC long before Donald was the nominee. It was around March of last year. The new "intelligence" report makes the allegation that a Russian agent leaked the information to WikiLeaks. It also says Russia uses their media for government propaganda, uses social media trolls, and doesn't like Hillary Clinton. This is supposed to be the 21st century version of deep throat we are in some serious trouble.

Wouldn't go that far. He did some things profoundly right that I don't think any plausible alternative to him (in either a Bush or a Gore administration) would have done.
But he made some very big mistakes, as I don't need to convince you, and he stuck with them. My theory was that he learned to dismiss all criticism from generals and admirals as hidebound thinking and/or rice bowl protection. Some criticisms of him fell into those categories; others, he'd have done better to hear and heed.

Back before and at the start of the Iraq war the left and the media were arguing that the war would costs tens of thousands of American lives, and would lead to a general war across the middle east if not WWIII itself.
Rummy could have done many things better, but frankly the primary reason he "failed" is that the goal posts moved.
If, in 2003 you could have gone to the floor of congress and told them what the costs were in lives and money of the war, I think you would have had more pro-war votes that you had at the time.

Dear gawd, won't someone who loves this creepy exhibitionist get her to stop this crap?
I'd suggest she get some therapy, but she's probably been getting it for years and it's become her religion and/or drug of choice (constant self-reflection/self-affirmation).

What I would do is at each press conference take only one question from CNN/ABC/CBS/NBC/NYT,on the whole, and then not call on any of them for the rest of it. Go to the other networks and news sites after that. And if they complain, "hey you got your question and answer and I'm not going to waste anyone else's time as your buddies you likely coordinated with try to re-ask the same question reworded because you haven't gotten your 'gotcha' quote yet."

The word itself is French, meaning rapids or falls.
But, the Ojibwa (Chippewa) were the natives in the area when the French established a colony there.

You will have assigned seats in the press conference.
If you do not mind your manners, you will be injected with a mild sedative, and allowed to stay.
If you become disruptive and/or violent, you will be tased.
You do not need to know the details of how the tasing will be accomplished.
Thanks for your cooperation!
