2016 Presidential Election Thread

Ouch.

More mysteries in the Washington Free Beacon

Mystery Surrounds Sources of Many Bill Clinton Speaking Fees
Small foreign speaking firms often listed as source of payments, actual paychecks came from undisclosed third parties

By all accounts, it was the most popular gala the Lady Taverners had ever held. Over 1,000 people packed the Park Lane Hilton in London on Oct. 30, 2009, with the crowd overflowing into the hallways, to listen to President Bill Clinton speak on the power of giving.

While Clinton’s speech helped raise a substantial sum for the prominent cricket charity, his staggering $290,000 speaking fee was not covered by the group, according to organizers. The fee also was not covered by “World Management Limited,” the marketing company Hillary Clinton listed as the payment source in her federal financial filings.

It was bankrolled by a wealthy British businessman named Robert Whitton—a name you won’t find included in the Clintons’ public disclosure forms.

A review by the Washington Free Beacon found that Hillary Clinton often listed small foreign speaking firms as the sources of her husband’s lecture payments in her Senate and State Department disclosures, even though the actual paychecks came from undisclosed third parties.

In certain cases, these funders had interests that intersected with the U.S. State Department. Whitton, a real estate mogul, had business pending before UNESCO, an international agency that received a quarter of its funding from the State Department.​

The article goes on and on and on because there's so much corruption to cover.

A review by the Huffington Post last May also found that several speeches Hillary Clinton gave in Canada were attributed to a company called tinePublic, Inc., but “were either sponsored by or directly involved” two major banks that supported the Keystone XL pipeline.​

Obviously they just bought her. Greed and corruption is like that. You might as well elect Exxon's board of directors and be done with it.

As many have said, the Clinton Foundation is one of the world's largest criminal enterprises.

Yet unlike the thousands of felonies directly connected to Hillary, nobody was ever able to connect Christie to the bridge mess.

and yet it ended his presidential bid among republicans, while hillary...

I guess Republican voters are more ethical than Democrat voters.

Christie's chances of ever winning a Republican primary ended the day he decided to put his state ahead of his party, and later ended up hugging Obama. Bipartisan cooperation is a far bigger sin in today's GOP than the bridge thing.

Do please list those "thousands of felonies". I'll wait.

Every time a classified document was moved from the secure system to her server was punishable by 5 or 10 years in federal prison. She did that hundreds of times. She was of course committing all those felonies to hide activities that were even more illegal, such as the quid pro quo speaking fees they kept receiving from unnamed third parties and from parties with business before the State Department. That's not just the appearance of corruption, that's corruption.

Go ask some Haitians how they feel about the Clintons, who got rich raping Haiti by taking over the flow of international earthquake relief money and funneling it to themselves and their cronies.

In other words, you have nothing. Which is exactly what I knew you had.

You people have been peddling this BS since whitewater, and you have proved one thing, and one thing only; that the President got a blowjob in the White House. Which wasn't even something you where looking for.

The Republicans have chaired dozens of committees and conducted hundreds of investigations and spending tens of millions of our hard earned tax dollars in the process.

And what did they find? Nothing!
And what has been the result? Nothing!

At some point in time you have to realize that it's ALL IN YOUR HEAD!

Until then....

No, they found tons of shit. In almost every investigation, it is found that Hillary committed what she was accused of and lied over and over again. But there are never any consequences. As a result she's become more and more corrupt over time.

For example, in Travelgate they found that she lied, acted illegally, and the White House was forced to rehire the original staffers. But there was no punishment directed at her.

In the probes about White Water, Vince Foster's death, and other matters, it was found that she hid the Rose law firm billing records from investigators, which were found a year later with her fingerprints all over them. She concealed evidence but she was never punished in any way. Even in the recent e-mail investigations she blatantly committed evidence tampering, concealed evidence from investigators, illegally destroyed government records, illegally retained government records, and lied under oath repeatedly. Yet she's so corrupt that the FBI knew the DoJ would never prosecute her, so they didn't even bother filing charges, they just noted that she did everything she was accused of.

The woman should be in jail for the rest of her life or in the electric chair.

Democrats burning the American flag outside the Republican convention.



They might as well wear ISIS, Nazi, or Soviet uniforms. The anti-American vermin also caught themselves on fire.

Serves em' right.Karma.

They got it like that! But it's okay, because Democrats really, really, really care.

Here's my response to flag burners.

Wow, what an epic non-endorsement of Trump by Cruz: "Don't stay home in November, vote your conscience, vote for who you think will defend the constitution."

Best thing out of Ted Cruz's mouth in 2 years.

It's so fitting that the RNC house band is playing "Eminence Front".

Libertarian Party Chairman on Cruz speech

^^^ "That's apparently how you say "Vote for Gary Johnson" in Canadian."

I was watching the massive scroll of Youtube comments on the live coverage Drudge linked. As Cruz droned on they became extremely and uniformly HARSH. Even after Pence finished some people were still screaming about Cruz being a dickwad loser and a traitor, which was still better than the fire hose of epithets they had been unleashing. If that's any indication, Cruz just ended any advancement he might make in politics. He almost certainly won't hold any position in the administration, and will probably get primaried pretty heavily.

The Right Side Youtube feed of the convention just wrapped up the night with a song they called "The Ballad of Lyin' Ted."

The band closed the night with Rush's "Limelight".

G. E. Smith has got to be trolling Trump and the delegates.

Neither can lecture anyone on ethics and that's the problem.

This is really getting old.

The future of the Republican party:

Oh teh noes! There don't happen to be any black people in that picture, therefore racism! The Asian people don't count, and any of those dirty, dirty biracial people don't count either.

Also, let's not count actual Republican voters of various ethnicities.

How many stupid pills did you take this morning? Federal Farmer used a picture to prove that the GOP is diverse. I demonstrated that a picture can make whatever statement we want. So, does either picture prove anything?

I can't believe I have to actually explain this shit to you.
