In case you missed it, the FBI released more info regarding Hillary last Friday right before Labor Day weekend.

To summarize:
1. Hillary Clinton and her staff destroyed 13 THIRTEEN mobile devices. They destroyed some of them with HAMMERS!

2. Hillary didnt know that the "C" stood for Classified, she mustve thought it stood for Carrots.

3. She didnt think drone strikes were classified info... (cough) Chelsea Manning (cough)

4. She said she "doesnt remember" or doesnt recall about 35 times.

Here CNN is Stunned When Fact Checkers Confirm Hillary Destroyed Phones with Hammers

Yes folks. She phucking destroyed her phones. LOL. I mean at this point even liberals are sick and tired of the lies and corruption coming from Hillary. Its getting embarrassing. And the rest are just delusional.

Her poll numbers are shrinking. No one goes to her events and speeches. Everywhere you turn on the internet, no one likes her.

It's time to start keeping an eye on the record for lowest percentage of the popular vote received in a presidential election by a major candidate.... Barry Goldwater in 1964 and Alf Landon in 1936 each gathered about 38% HILLARY should give them a run for their money.

Fixed.
Imagine if Obama, Kamala, or Biden survived two assassination attempts and the media not publicly destroying the reputation of everyone who issued even the most mild criticism of them and then just dropping the story completely.

Yeah, I cannot either.

She's still at 72% and it's nearly mid September. Just in case you missed it.

Uhh no. It is more along the lines of 39% and 41%.

__________

Hillary Clinton:
"You know, to just be grossly generalistic, you could put half of Trump's supporters into what I call the basket of deplorables," Clinton told attendees at a New York LGBT fundraiser. "The racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamophobic -- you name it."

Insulting and stigmatizing millions of Americans who disagree with her. Hm? This is okay to do if your name is Hillary Clinton, because if your name was Donald Trump, they would easily say that you said you think half of Americans are racist and sexist.... and deplorable. Is that even a noun?

So what happens if she wins, reeducation for these people? Punishment?

The Clinton campaign is hitting the skids. All they seem to have left and all they seem to be using these days is the HATE and RACE cards.

Bill Clinton tried saying that Trumps slogan is racist.

What is the Hillster thinking? Fast forward and they have released a statement trying to apologize and the Mainstream Media outlets trying to cover for her as well... Too little, too late. Give me a break.



Say it with me folks.... "HYP-O-CRITE"
Imagine if Obama, Kamala, or Biden survived two assassination attempts and the media not publicly destroying the reputation of everyone who issued even the most mild criticism of them and then just dropping the story completely.

I'm sorry I meant calculated chance of winning, not poll percentages.

And according so some models, it's 80%. So I'm happy about that.

After that "deplorable" remark, expect this to fall. Twitter deciding to censor that hashtag, no shock there.

Let me decipher Hillarys apology as well: "I am sorry that I have to say I am sorry."

This is what a sinking ship looks like folks. And we havent even seen the leaks Julian Assange is planning or ANY of the debates! Sorry liberals.

Liberals cry foul when Trump calls some illegal aliens drug trafficers and killers, but Hillary calls a good percent of Americans racists and sexist and liberals bust a nut.... odd. Just goes to show you the delusion. Hillary herself is as deplorable as it gets.

1. Never ever proven

2. Again, never heard it.

3. ONCE AGAIN, not gonna say she did or didn't but there's nothing but loose talk to go on.

4 & 5. That was 20 years ago, taken out of context, and she's apologized. https://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/post-partisan/wp/2016/02/25/hillary-clinton-responds-to-activist-who-demanded-apology-for-superpredator-remarks/?utm_term=.8e28c2d77caa
6. Again, uttered by Dolly Kyle who is clearly trying to cash in by saying whatever she wants to. It's easy to claim something when you have no evidence.

Kissing Robert Byrd... yeah he was a major KKK player for a year but quit in the 40's and has apologized profusely. What else can he do? It's SICK but all you could do is keep trying to make right. "I know now I was wrong. Intolerance had no place in America. I apologized a thousand times ... and I don't mind apologizing over and over again. I can't erase what happened."

I have a way bigger problem with her alleged corporate ties to big oil and war mongers, honestly.

The Republican candidate for POTUS pals around with white supremacists and anti-Semites (indeed, they are currently running his campaign) and yet people are "outraged" over the fact that Hillary got the percentage of "deplorables" that support him wrong. Alrighty then.

There's a lot of legitimate things to be angry at Hillary for. Stop with all these tinfoil inanities already.

In legitimate political news, the Republican VP pick has released 10 years of his tax returns, just like every serious candidate for high office has done.

Quote
Is It Unusual for a Presidential Candidate to Not Release Personal Tax Returns?

Absolutely. Every major party candidate since Richard Nixon in 1972 has made their returns public before election day. Only one truly competitive candidate refused, and that was billionaire Ross Perot, who won 19% of the vote as an independent in 1992. In most cases, candidates make their filings public around tax time in April, before their conventions and several months prior to the election. The only Republican or Democratic candidate to release after the convention was Mitt Romney in 2012. The delay allowed opponents to wrongly claim that Romney paid no taxes, and the candidate paid dearly for the delay. Trump recently stated that Romney suffered even more by releasing them, and “might have lost the election” because of the way Democrats distorted the details they disclosed.

And yet his putative boss keeps lying about the reason why he hasn't yet released his own; "IRS audit" or no "IRS audit", there is nothing stopping him from releasing the first two pages of his returns. Don't take my word for that: that's what a Reagan-era former chief IRS counsel said:

Quote
Trump has promised to release his returns when his audit ends, but claims he is under continuous audit by the IRS and that releasing his returns (including returns for years that are now closed) could have an adverse impact on current and future IRS examinations. As a former IRS commissioner and practicing tax lawyer, I understand it may be inconvenient for Trump to release his tax returns but we all know — and the IRS has confirmed — that nothing prevents any of us from releasing our tax returns any time we want. And by the way, for those who listen carefully, Trump's promise means he will never release his tax returns. Trump's advisors also have substantial control over when his current examination will conclude.

As a citizen and voter, I want to take a look because I will learn something important about this man who would be president. Inevitably, his refusal to release his returns raises a question: What is Trump hiding? The additional audit hassle is nothing compared to the extraordinary burdens he would carry as president. It's a small price of admission to the Oval Office. The sooner he releases his entire returns, the better.
AOC, HC, TW, BO, KH: FU. FUATH. 100x.

And yet liberals around here NEVER seem to bring any of those things up.

Stop with all these tinfoil inanities already.

Such as suggesting white supremacists and anti-Semites run Trumps campaign?   ???

You know, a month ago Hillary's health was just an "alt right conspiracy theory" was it not? Didn't she even say that? Didn't she even open a jar of pickles to prove herself healthy?

Hillary is the one giving "tinfoil inanities" isn't she? Allergies? Overheated? She's fine look at this pickle jar?

Answer me this, from a liberal perspective, what is the difference between a transgender and a conspiracy theorist? One can truly be themselves and think how they want to and not shunned by society in what they think because The Man has told us not to shun them?

Shouldn't liberals be extra nice and accepting and political correctly nice to conspiracy theorists? Shouldn't conspiracy theorists and "normal" people be allowed to share the same bathroom so to speak?

It's not easy following everything as the election gets closer, but let me try:

While Hillary was toughing it out at a 9/11 memorial observation, Trump was saying these things in another phone interview (as Tweeted by Daniel Dale, the Washington correspondent for the Toronto Star):

* Called Sen. Elizabeth Warren "Pocahontas"
* Claimed with no evidence that Fed Chair Janet Yellen is manipulating monetary policy to help Obama, said she "should be ashamed of herself"
* Said the Fed, the FBI, and the Department of Justice are "obviously" no longer independent
* Alleged with no evidence that the presidential debates will be "rigged" and said there should be no moderator
* Falsely claimed his schedule been busier than Clinton's: "There's not a contest"
* Claimed with no evidence that Iranian sailors are making "crude gestures" at American sailors
* Claimed with no evidence that British people "call me Mr. Brexit"
* Said, "I'm the king of illegal immigration. I will stop it"
* Falsely claimed Clinton wants "open borders"
* Said he would turn Air Force One around and fly home if to officials from a foreign country weren't at the airport to greet him
* Said of North Korea: "We should get China to fix that problem"
* Falsely claimed he is leading in the polls
* Falsely claimed he has visited "numerous" black communities other than Philadelphia and Detroit

So that's a racist insult (regardless of Warren's heritage, it's still an insult), several statements that are easily provable lies, a couple of delusions (why would anyone call him "Mr. Brexit"?).... and why is the press still allowing him to do these phone interviews?

Meanwhile, in an effort to prove Clinton correct, Trump supporters were seen wearing "I'm Deplorable" shirts and carrying "Deplorable Lives Matter" signs at a recent Trump rally in Asheville NC. (link). Since Clinton was making the point with her "basket of deplorables" comment that racism and misogyny are deplorable (which they indeed are), these people are simply advertising that they are racists and misogynists....

Yes, that's something to be proud of.....

Now that the New York State Attorney General has opened an investigation into the Trump Foundation, and all the Democrats on the House Judiciary Committee have called on Attorney General Loretta Lynch to investigate that foundation's "donation" to Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi, you may find this "cheat sheet" by The Atlantic's David A. Graham covering Trump's many scandals:

http://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2016/09/donald-trump-scandals/474726/

Note that these are only the biggest and most interesting, and have documentary evidence such from court cases and legal proceedings.

rtpoe

The snapping of pitch from a burning log,
The faint scent of pine filling the room.
Flames leaping about as if it were a ballet
Performing for its audience.
The soft, comforting glow of candlelight,
Bringing with it serenity and quiet thoughts.
