AP Reporter Matt Lee to State Department Spokesgal: Are You Fucking Serious With This Shit You're Smearing On Yourself?

I don't know Matt Lee's politics, and I suspect he's a liberal like the rest of them, but I do know one thing: He's anti-bullshit, and that distinguishes him from most of the smug, careerist go-along-to-get-along in the media-governmental complex.

By the way, all True Conservative Patriots (TM) should definitely vote for Hillary, because you know what that Trump will do, don't you? He'll corrupt the system, that's what he'll do.

Obviously, Hillary is ethical and has no power to corrupt her cultists/underlings.

I'm here to cover for the Obama administration, past and present members, period.

You're one of those 'government-of-the-people, for-the-people, by-the-people' types, aren't you? Think you've got some say in how your betters run the world, don't you?

You people make me sick. And you're on the list.

Now settle down, as I dish out more tripe for you news-seals to clap and bark at.

You've help build this travesty much more than I have. I just work here.

You laid down for it all 8 years ago, and now you're waking up with sore orifices and a weird taste in your mouth, which leads to regrets.

Tough luck, buttercups. We've got it all on film.

You did everything, everywhere, and in some places that aren't even supposed to be places.

And you did it willingly. Gave yourself ligatures, you pulled your panties off so fast.

Now you're glued, screwed, blued, and tattooed, permanently.

Get used to it, slutcakes. We OWN your asses now, and you're of no use to anybody else.

Least of all 'your fellow countrymen'. If the Chinese made a big enough offer, they'd sell you all off for the organ banks.

68 TEL AVIV Questions continue to linger about the Obama administrations decision to deliver $400 million in pallets of foreign currency flown to Iran aboard an unmarked jetliner the same day five American hostages were released from Iranian custody.
The State and Treasury Departments both told Breitbart News that the U.S. government transferred the remaining $1.3 billion, which was part of the same settlement for which the $400 million was an initial payment in January. However, despite numerous requests, neither State nor Treasury would provide an answer on how the Obama administration allegedly transferred to Iran the remaining $1.3 billion.

It is not clear whether the $1.3 billion was similarly delivered to Iran in the same spy novel-like fashion as the $400 million in cash pallets of foreign currency. If the money was not transferred in cash, that could raise questions about President Obamas explanation that cash was necessary because there was no banking relationship.

Nope. Ones that we know of so far: Huma, Mills, Pagliano.

I've mentioned this before: know the mom or a long-time Hillary employees, dating back to her time as FLOTUS. Hillary has a whole crew of people who follow her from job to job, with Huma Abedin being the most prominent example. The point is: these people work for Hillary, regardless of whose name is printed on the paycheck (WH, Senate office, State, Clinton foundation). Their focus is taking care of Hilary, period.

Now for the kicker: when Hillary went to State she brought over 70 of her people with her who all became State employees. This was unprecedented for a SoS to bring in that many of her own people instead of using existing State personnel. Whose interests do you think they served - America's or Hillary? Also, not all of these 70+ people left when Hillary did, some stayed on to serve Kerry (and likely, to protect Hillary).

Ah. What a comfort that is for the rest of us, knowing that The Donald will be just fine with losing to Hillary. As the rest of us end up completely in the shit.

Maybe, just maybe, the GOP needs to stop running incredibly rich people who aren't really going to be negatively affected by losing, and who thus aren't keenly intent on winning?

*cough McInsane cough* *cough Mittbot 3000 cough*

Problem is, after cycle after cycle of picking can't-care-less nominees, this is basically the last stop. There won't be any more opportunities to instead pick some guy who isn't a wealthy dilettante. If Trump loses you won't see another Republican elected to the White House in your or my lifetime.

The first reporter was reading the question from her phone, and the spokesperson was reading the answer from pages on top of the podium.

So in reality the whole thing was most likely pre-planned and Mike/Matt/Whatever Guy was just late getting into the room.

All these spokes humans and reporters are nothing more than a huge human centipede of liars and fools, connected together in a way that most benefits the already-selected-for-us-Ruler-for-Life from the Uni-Party that's been ignoring us for the lasts 70 years.

HH: That's ...

DT: If he would have done things properly, you wouldn't have had ISIS.

HH: That's true.

DT: Therefore, he was the founder of ISIS.

HH: And that's, I'd just use different language to communicate it, but let me close with this, because I know I'm keeping you long, and Hope's going to kill me.

DT: But they wouldn't talk about your language, and they do talk about my language, right?

Yeah, it was weird. Makes you wonder if this was a planted question so that Trudeau could give her scripted answer.

Recall that the whole IRS harassment of 501c3 applicants was introduced to the press via a Q and A with Lerner's boss, and she had given a friendly reporter a question to ask so that she could vaguely inform the press of an internal issue that had investigated, look away, already fixed, blah, blah, blah - as a way to say that the press was informed without it being overtly (noticeably) announced.

Thanks. As a resident of a western state that had nothing to do with slavery or the civil war, I am tired of people suggesting the feds give them land in states that were likewise not part of US history. I'm sure coastal elites would have no problem giving away other people's/red state flyover land to fix their problem. No. NJNBHN.

154 He may be saying this to paint himself as a true outsider and not a career politician.
---
Or he didn't want an offhand comment about what he'd do if he lost the election like saying "I'd fight on for the Little Guy", to be reported as "Trump Won't Accept Election Loss: Hints at coup attempt???" to become a story.

It's reported as being:

"All I do is tell the truth," Trump responded, "and if at the end of 90 days, I've fallen short because I'm somewhat politically correct, even though I'm supposed to be the smart one, and even though I'm supposed to have a lot of good ideas, it's OK. I go back to a very good way of life. It's not what I'm looking to do. I think we're going to have a victory, but we'll see."

BTW, the "truth" reference was to Obama founding ISIS and related criticisms that seemed to cover most of the interview from what I've read.

There's video that I haven't watched because I don't like watching e.g. 10 minutes of video when it would take 2 minutes to read a transcript of same if you want to look for yourself.

So I think I'll wait for a full transcript including all of the questions and his remarks before and after opining on what he'd do if he loses the election before, you know, losing my shit over it.

188 Police have charged the young man who scaled Trump Tower on Wednesday and confirmed his identity as 19-year-old Stephen Rogata, authorities said.

Rogata was charged with reckless endangerment and criminal trespassing.

Police said the man was originally known as Michael Joseph Ryan before changing his name to Stephen Rogata.

Rogata is currently in police custody at Bellevue Hospital, where he will undergo a psychological evaluation.

And the only role models the piece lists are Dominique Dawes, Gabby and Simone. So being female not matter, only being black matters. Got it.

Seconded. That is a very underrated Ayn Rand novel.

It was her first, and she had a difficult time getting it published in the West. One publisher told her that she simply didn't understand Communism.

Which is darkly amusing when you consider that she later said that it was the closest she came to writing an autobiography.

I agree. I'd like to know why the other folks are hatin' on her. It seems to me like she hits a home run every time at bat, and sometimes that's not an easy thing to do.


The funny thing about HER, is that early on in the primary the anti-Trump crowd literally went after her. The exposed some pretty obnoxious anti-white rhetoric that she had put out in recent years. It made me pissed off at first, but now just I kind of enjoy the fact that Trump is keeping her on SIMPLY BECAUSE SHE'S REALLY GOOD AT HER JOB. This idea that someone has to be run out of their livelihood for life because they said the "n-word" once is BS.

So I despise her "as a person", but pull for her to do a great job for Trump. Because that's the sort of thing that Makes America Great, that's why!!!!

I'm trying to be optimistic and think that it was the Director alone, and not the FBI as a whole, that refused to do his duty.

Plus, there's evidence for that. If the underlings were the same POS that he is, they wouldn't have even dug up the evidence for the quasi-conviction. Even Comey has given all the ammunition in the world to try and convict her 5 times over in the court of public opinion. For what I can tell, he at least did his people - the ones who were NOT compromised, the way he was - the significant favor that he spilled the beans on Hillary being guilty, so they wouldn't feel that they would have to leak it and possibly get in trouble for it.

But it's up to the voters to CARE. Besides that, it's aggrevating to hear pundit and talking heads who ought know better say that "the evidence was insufficient to indict" when that's not what Comey said AT ALL, and they ought to know better.


It's even more irritating to hear the NeverTrumpers talk like they have no clue that the system will be WAY too corrupted, and way too rigged for any Republican to sit in the WH for the foreseeable future if they don't wake up and get behind Trump. They talk like they think so-called conservatives in the Establishment will suddenly become popular next time 'round, and have a chance in hell of defeating an incumbant who will probably have all the anti-terror investigators inventing charges on THEM, instead of looking for actual terrorists.

I see they were thick. In that case, you can do two things. Cut them in half horizontally, so you get thinner chops...and pan sear them. Or, sear them then put them in the oven at 350 for about 10 minutes.

391 Also, chemjeff, they have pretty much wiped out trichinosis from pork, so it is safe (and tastier) to eat pork at a more medium than well-done temperature. I usually cook my pork chops and loin roasts until they are just slightly pink inside. Overcooking absolutely ruins pork, unless it is a fatty cut like shoulder which you cook for hours.

Because anyone who can't bring themselves to vote for a candidate after whose supporters repeatedly call them evil incarnate must be secretly part of a pro-Hillary conspiracy?

What's more important? Convincing people that voting against Hillary is necessary and the Trump is the ipicac necessary to purge politics? Or insulting people -- making it personal -- and driving them away because they have a problem with Trump, in order to rage against the relatively few who are outspoken die-hard #NeverTrumpers?

Insulting people for not being on bored with Trump does far more to help elect Hillary than pointing out the blindingly obvious problems with Trump.

You're one of those 'government-of-the-people, for-the-people, by-the-people' types, aren't you? Think you've got some say in how your betters run the world, don't you?

Trump has problems and a lot of his supporters are dicks. This is self-evident, and I will not apologize to anyone for saying so.

Hillary is close kin to the Devil Himself, and her supporters are all thoroughly rotten and will stop at nothing to get absolute power for Dear Leader so that she can turn America into their utopia, which we all know will be an empire so evil that even the Soviets would have shuddered at the thought of.

It is in fact 4 choices.
Vote for Trump
Vote for Hillary
Vote for someone else.
Do not vote for President at all.

That is not a binary choice. I do not owe any of you my vote. I am not willing to be peer pressured into supporting someone I do not support. I will not be bullied into voting for someone I do not support. The thought process you have to have in order to think that I must vote for either Trump or Hillary is the same one that leaders in places like Iran use.

I am never Trump and have always been never Hillary. I also will not vote for the libtardarian candidate. Tough shit if Trump does not make the sale to more Americans than Hillary does. I will be fine either way. The difference between the two is at best Hillary will be marginally worse than Trump, at worst Trump will be infinitely worse than Hillary.

Hillary does not have a personality that can drive a revolution. Trump does. I personally might be prepared to defend what I have at what ever cost it will take, but I do not look forward to a revolution.

Hillary is not talking about starting trade wars around the world. Trump is talking about starting one with China which is a nation willing to go to a live war. I will do what is needed to defend our nation in time of war, but i do not look forward to world war III.

If you for Trump, then you are for revolution and war. It is a binary choice. Sound familiar? Go pound sand stone.

Hillary's slogan "Stronger Together" is literal, in-your-face fascism.

In ancient Rome, a "fasces" was a bundle of sticks tied together. An individual stick could be snapped in two, but a bundle of sticks couldn't.

562 The decline in perceived significance of Obama's election and presidency is evident among both blacks and whites, though blacks remain more positive overall. In October 2009, 71% of blacks considered Obama's election as one of the most important advances for blacks; today, 51% do. Among whites, the percentage has declined from 56% to 27%.

Americans' optimism about the effects that Obama's election and presidency would have on race relations has also declined significantly since he was elected in November 2008. At that time, 70% of Americans expected race relations in the U.S. to get better, while only 10% believed relations would get worse. Now, more say that race relations have gotten worse as a result of his presidency (46%) than say they have gotten better (29%).

719 "Then you can accept the consequences of a constitutional crisis of the first order if Hillary wins...I hope you have prepared for the worse."

Does this mean Trump supporters have to accept personal responsibility for a Hillary victory after nominating someone who couldn't win? I'm fine with blaming both Team Trump and #NeverTrump for the probable loss, but its hypocritical to insist that people like Chemjeff be considered morally responsible for a Clinton victory but not the people who nominated a highly defective and alienating candidate in the first place.

Either blame both of them or neither, you can't consistently blame one and not the other (that last part goes to Chemjeff, too).

Today, I actually, for the first time, seriously considered the possibility of voting for Trump.

No, really!

I mean, Hillary's corruption really is just so thoroughly awful. It WOULD be awful if such a terrible and horribly corrupt person were to be in charge. It would endanger us all.

But then of course the "zealous Trumpists" had to spoil it again.

Good job. You actually had me for a while, from 100% NeverTrump down to 90% NeverTrump at least for a short while. But that's gone now.

Besides, he never fails to give the horde a good time. Lot to be said for that.

774 Has anyone here really voted for a Presidential candidate more than they voted against one, other than maybe Ronald Reagan?

This is the easiest vote against a candidate I've had in a long time. And that says a lot.

Forget the eighties and nineties. Nothing in your face as far as corrupt pigs, really. Apathetic votes. Party line. Zzzzz. Clinton winning the second time made me wonder just exactly who was in the lane next to me on the highway, but, I didn't think they were contributing to the downfall of our country or anything like that.

I got to vote AGAINST Al Gore, FFS. Even that wasn't as easy as this year, I mean - Bush? Seriously. He wasn't exactly a fiscal Conservative, was he? But fuck Al Gore. He is a pig and a liar.

Then there was John "the traitor" Kerry. That was a no brainer. Jesus, the GWOT vs a fucking traitor who voted for it before he voted against it and picked the smarmiest VP I have ever seen? God I was glad that he didn't win.

I am not passing up the opportunity to vote against Hillary Clinton. And I am going to be damned sure my vote has a shot in hell at counting. There's only one box to blacken for that.

Hard to fathom that more people aren't passionately against this horrible cunt. She is measurably worse than the Traitor.

Posted by: chemjeff at August 11, 2016 11:30 PM (uAvJJ)

780 It is terrible even more because I had such high hopes for this election season.

When it was clear that it was going to be Hillary as the opponent - which was really, after the first Dem debate when Bernie declined to go after her on her corruption - I thought - yes, this is our chance to finally get someone in there who will clean house, who will enact the conservative reforms that this country desperately needs. To overhaul entitlements, to get the debt under control, to sweep away useless agencies, to devolve power back down to the states. This is the time to happen, because Hillary is such a terrible candidate, even if Rush's hypothesis that there is this giant groundswell of conservative support out there just waiting for the right candidate, even if that hypothesis were only half true, that candidate would defeat such an awful person like Hillary.

And then we got Trump. Who is NOT a conservative reformer, which even his promoters will admit.

And then we got Hillary leading comfortably in the polls. Which is awful.

And all of the expectations have now not only fully evaporated, but turned into weeping sadness.

And it is just awful. This country DESPERATELY needs to be put on the right track. We can't afford 4 years of Hillary. But we can't afford 4 more years of Trumpism either. We can't afford EITHER ONE. It is terrible. It really is. I am so depressed by all this shit.

782 Chemjeff, I hear ya. My hope is that it's true that Trump offered Kat-sick control over both foreign policy and domestic policy, *and* that he made the same offer to Pence. From what I can tell Pence is competent and a reasonably OK guy.

I lived in Illinois a long time and worked with people who'd been in Illinois their whole lives, and knew both Obama and Hilary far more than I had. Consensus: Hilary would be *far* worse than Obama (mostly from being power-mad, driven, and not a slacker druggie.)

This is childish. Trump's supporters are not on the ballot. Nor are Hillary's. The commenters on this blog will not be taking office 1/20/17. You are deciding who to vote for based on how much respect you get from anonymous commenters on some blog? And you're admitting it?????

Come on.

784 Sad, that events have conspired to disappoint you, chemjeff.

If only there were something more important than your own personal preferences. If only there were some standard that didn't offend your exquisitely refined sensibilities.

Little wonder, then, that you're compelled to recapitulate your outrage at every opportunity. Baffled, outraged ghost, forever looking backward to what might have been, which, even had it been successful, would be found lacking, what else could or can you do but rage ineffectually against what is?

You pretend that the entire matter hinges on your decision, knowing, in your deepest self, that your saying 'yea' or 'nay' matters not at all. Little wonder, then, that you rage as you do.

787 Chemjeff - Trump is basically a classic New York Republican - except that he is not a professional politician. As president he would be far better than Hillary.

It is highly likely Hillary will win the election. I will tell you what that will mean. Hillary will attempt to effectively repeal the Second Amendment - it is simply a major goal of hers, and the rest of the left. That will result in a shooting war in the United States. The war will not be between the government and the people. The two sides will be the Democratic politicians, the media, the Democratic billionaires, and the college professors, on one side and We The People on the other. It will be a very brief war that will be settled by fewer than a thousand shots.


Posted by: An Observation at August 12, 2016 12:11 AM (Qy6xy)

788 Chemjeff,

What "conservative reforms" were you expecting from people like Jeb or Rubio? And the God and Constitution types simply can't win, even against an opponent who is in prison. It doesn't sell. Nobody cares. For one thing, all these somewhat Elmer Gantry types have zero credibility outside the fringes. They are like a Mormon or even a Scientologist trying to talk morality to Joe Sixpack, who thinks they have a screw loose. Standing with Beck just seals the deal against you.

That horde that Limbaugh talks about is a lot closer to somebody like Trump than anything the GOP wants to give us. The horde loves it when someone says something along the lines of "Why the hell are we paying for protecting countries like Japan and Germany? And if the Eastern European states are so afraid of Russia, why won't they spend more on defense?" This is a conservative reform, not cutting Social Security.

So you seem to have an almost religious view of politics. 95% of people are simply trying to choose some combination of making themselves and their surroundings better, at least as they see it.

790 Too principled to vote Trump?

I first had great expectations of Scott Walker, yes the battle tested one the Dem Public Employee & Troublemaker Thugs tried to drown in shit - that one.

When Scott failed on the launch pad, moved over to Lyin' Ted, but when that fizzled, maybe actually partly due to a little bit of lyin', (but not a whole lot by Obama standards) So here I am in the station ready to jump aboard the Trump Train. I'll ride it to the Gates of WhoTheFuckKnows given his egotistical, fly by the seat of his (big) pants, shoot from the hip, refusal to listen to sound advice strategy.

But if you think I'll vote Hitlery, you probably think Hope Solo shows great talent as a selfie ass photojournalist.

No way I'll perpetrate that stain on my progeny!

792 Why is the State Department working so hard to obfuscate? All the appropriate players are gone now, so why work to confuse instead of saying, "members of the Secretary's entourage appear to have acted in violation of her agreement and we're now investigating whether anyone else still at DoS was involved." My guess is they expect her to win and exact revenge for disloyalty.
