Con Man Donald Trump Did Not Win But America Lost; More Than Most Would Ever Know. History Would Be Kinder To Hillary Clinton Than The Generation She Sacrificed Her Life For!

[New York Times] HillaryClinton “I knew it. I knew this would happen to me,” she said, now within a couple of inches of Mr. Mook’s ashen face. “They were never going to let me be president.”

 

Every major life decision in my 20s and 30s — when to get married, where to buy an apartment, whether to freeze my eggs until after the election — had revolved around a single looming question: What about Hillary Clinton?

 

Things were already looking bad when, several people told me, Chelsea Clinton popped the Champagne. It was just after 9 p.m. on election night and she was having her hair and makeup done in the family’s suite at the Peninsula hotel. She stopped to pour what someone said was Veuve Clicquot into everyone’s glasses, figuring that in a couple of hours Donald Trump’s run of early victories in red states (West Virginia, Oklahoma, Alabama) would end and the map would turn back in her mom’s favor.

 

Three hours later, the Rust Belt was awash in red, and somebody had to tell Hillary Clinton.

“As a person, I’m O.K.,” she said. “As an American, I’m pretty worried.”

 

“As any sane, person, informed, humbled, educated and not brainwashed, Donald Trump’s Policies against Women, Immigrants, Health Care, Climate Change and the Trump Administration in complete Chaos, it is fair to say, we are all worried, here in America and abroad, especially when the Republican Congress are enabling Trump’s insanity.” [Sheriff Ali]

 

Hillary Clinton NYT Interview:

 

 [NYT] “In the most wrenching, humiliating way possible, Hillary Clinton has been liberated. She is now out of the woods again, and speaking her mind.

 

In her first interview since the election, she acknowledged that she had expected to defeat Donald Trump and that the outcome had been “so devastating.”

 

“I just had to make up my mind that, yes, I was going to get out of bed, and, yes, I was going to go for a lot of long walks in the woods. And I was going to see my grandchildren a lot and spend time with my family and my friends. They have rallied around me in an amazing way.”

 

“As a person, I’m O.K.,” she said. “As an American, I’m pretty worried.”

 

Clinton spoke to me for more than 45 minutes on stage Thursday at Tina Brown’s Women in the World Summit. She seemed relaxed and comfortable, much less guarded than during the campaign.

 

I’ve known Clinton a bit for many years, and when she was running for office she was always monumentally careful in her language — a natural impulse when critics are circling, but it also diminished her authenticity as a politician. Her prudence came across to voters as “calculating.”

 

Now she’s out of her shell, freed by defeat, and far more willing to speak bluntly.

 

“Certainly misogyny played a role” in her loss, she said. “That just has to be admitted.”

 

She noted the abundant social science research that when men are ambitious and successful, they may be perceived as more likable. In contrast, for women in traditionally male fields, it’s a trade-off: The more successful or ambitious a woman is, the less likable she becomes (that’s also true of how women perceive women). It’s not so much that people consciously oppose powerful women; it’s an unconscious bias.” Open NYT Link For One Of The Most Amazing Hillary Clinton Interviews: https://nyti.ms/2ojG3bp

Trump Administration Warned Russia In Advance Of The US Strike And Syria Evacuated The Base. More Than Half Of The Missiles Fired Didn’t Reach The Empty Target!

Donald Trump, Master Con Man is playing the Media like a Violin and just like the “suckers” they are, they have swallowed it Hook, Line and Sinker.

 

Donald Trump would do anything, I mean anything, including starting World War 111 to deflect attention from the Federal Government closing in on Trump’s involvement with Russia during the 2016 Election.

 

Four People Have Fallen Thus Far:

 

Michael Flynn – Resigned

Devin Nunes   – Recused

Jeff Session    – Recused

Steve Bannon – Demoted

 

Just imagine, 24 hours before the Cruise Missile was launched Donald Trump told the world he doesn’t want to be the World’s President. His Secretary of State had a bizarre response subsequent to Syria’s Chemical attack on its Citizens and yet, Trump made a capricious decision like he always does, conning and scheming. Yes America and the world should do something about the Killer in Damascus, but there is a conspiracy that includes more than Donald Trump, Vladimir Putin and Bashar al Assad,  to keep Puppet Trump as President.

 

Thursday’s misadventure with Trump playing Soldier, those 59 Missiles and the Operation cost the Tax Payers 83 Million Dollars and ask yourself, what purpose it served. Donald Trump and Republicans have blocked Syrian Refugees from entering the United States, but they are launching bombs with no plans or resolve.  [There would be more to report on this Con Man Charade].

[NYT] President Obama Preserved Intelligence Information On Trump Russia Ties.

 

WASHINGTON — In the Obama administration’s last days, some White House officials scrambled to spread information about Russian efforts to undermine the presidential election — and about possible contacts between associates of President-elect Donald J. Trump and Russians — across the government. Former American officials say they had two aims: to ensure that such meddling isn’t duplicated in future American or European elections, and to leave a clear trail of intelligence for government investigators.

 

American allies, including the British and the Dutch, had provided information describing meetings in European cities between Russian officials — and others close to Russia’s president, Vladimir V. Putin — and associates of President-elect Trump, according to three former American officials who requested anonymity in discussing classified intelligence.

Attorney General Jeff Sessions Lied Under Oath During His Confirmation Hearing About His Involvement With Russia.

 

[WAPO] Then-Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-Ala.) spoke twice last year with Russia’s ambassador to the United States, Justice Department officials said, encounters he did not disclose when asked about possible contacts between members of President Trump’s campaign and representatives of Moscow during Sessions’s confirmation hearing to become attorney general.

 

One of the meetings was a private conversation between Sessions and Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak that took place in September in the senator’s office, at the height of what U.S. intelligence officials say was a Russian cyber campaign to upend the U.S. presidential race.

Trump Putin New Cold War – What’s Behind Russia’s Involvement In The 2016 Election?

 

[NEW YORKER] The 2016 Presidential campaign in the United States was of keen interest to Putin. He loathed Obama, who had applied economic sanctions against Putin’s cronies after the annexation of Crimea and the invasion of eastern Ukraine. (Russian state television derided Obama as “weak,” “uncivilized,” and a “eunuch.”) Clinton, in Putin’s view, was worse—the embodiment of the liberal interventionist strain of U.S. foreign policy, more hawkish than Obama, and an obstacle to ending sanctions and reëstablishing Russian geopolitical influence.

 

At the same time, Putin deftly flattered Trump, who was uncommonly positive in his statements about Putin’s strength and effectiveness as a leader. As early as 2007, Trump declared that Putin was “doing a great job in rebuilding the image of Russia and also rebuilding Russia period.” In 2013, before visiting Moscow for the Miss Universe pageant, Trump wondered, in a tweet, if he would meet Putin, and, “if so, will he become my new best friend?” During the Presidential campaign, Trump delighted in saying that Putin was a superior leader who had turned the Obama Administration into a “laughingstock.”

New York Times Admits That At The Request Of The FBI It Held Back A Critical Report Of Investigation Into Trump – Russia Ties Prior To November 8th Election.

“All Of The Corrupt Corporate Owned Media; New York Times, Washington Post, NBC, ABC, CBS, CNN, MSNBC, FOX And Others, Enabled Trump Presidency With The Help Of Russia, FBI, Fraudulent Republicans And Uninformed, Ignorant, Uneducated And Brainwashed Republican Voters.”

 

This is the same New York Times that immediately published a Front Page Article on October 28th, 2016 when Treasonous Traitor, FBI Director Released His Pernicious, Egregious, Fanatical Letter About Hillary Clinton Being Reinvestigated for which James Comey recanted 2 days before the Election, when the damaged was already done.

 

In a stunning revelation today, the Public Editor of the New York Times has announced that her newspaper held off from publishing a story during the election season about Donald Trump’s secret ties to Russia, after the FBI discouraged publication. She’s acknowledging that the story could have “upended” the presidential election between Trump and Hillary Clinton, and she’s criticizing her own newspaper for having been too “timid” in pulling its punches.

 

New York Times Public Editor Liz Spayd published an article today in which she revealed that “The Times knew several critical facts: the F.B.I. had a sophisticated investigation underway on Trump’s organization, possibly including FISA warrants.” She goes on to explain that a source had made the Times aware of “salacious material describing an odd cross-continental dance between Trump and Moscow. The most damning claim was that Trump was aware of Russia’s efforts to hack Democratic computers, an allegation with implications of treason.”

 

The story in question got as far as being written in draft form, but “with the F.B.I. discouraging publication, editors decided to hold their fire.” The story was ultimately quashed by NYT Executive Editor Dean Baquet. Eventually the story was in fact published, “but only after other news outlets had gone first.”

 

She concludes her takedown of her own newspaper by asking the following question: “It’s hard not to wonder what impact such information might have had on voters still evaluating the candidates, an issue I chided The Times for not pursuing enough in an earlier column. Would more sources have come forward? Would we already know the essential facts?”

{Corporations} {Big Business} {The 1%} Own The Republican Party! Six {6} Corporations Own All Of The Media, So, Essentially, The Media Has Become Stooges For the GOP! ABC, NBC, CBS, MSNBC, CNN, FOX, New York Times, Washington Post, Time Magazine, Politico And Other News Agencies And Are Doing The Republicans’ Bidding To Regain Control Of The White House In The 2016 Presidential Election

The Media is even helping the Republicans cover-up their Criminal Wrongdoings! The Republican Speaker-To-Be Kevin McCarthy went on National Television and stated that the Benghazi Investigation was all about damaging Hillary Clinton’s credibility for the Presidency.

 

Republican Congressman, Kevin McCarthy even bragged about Mrs. Clinton’s falling Poll Numbers and stated unequivocally, they took credit, both him and his Republican Colleagues. One would think that this type of corruption would be Headlines, but it wasn’t!

 

Just imagine, the Republican Party spent Millions of Taxpayers’ Dollars both directly and indirectly and got paid with Taxpayers money for not doing their jobs, but instead, using “Material Misrepresentations” to deceive the American people.

 

If the American people would stop allowing the Politicians and the Media to divide America, we can rebound as a Country, but if not, sooner rather than later we will be another Banana Republic.

 

George W Bush and Dick Cheney’s Administration lied us into a War For Oil Profit that killed 4,500 American Soldiers and in excess of 500,000 Iraqis at a cost of 1.7 Trillion Dollars and neither the Media or the Republican Party has blinked an eye, “they all blame President Obama!”

The Six Corporations Own: All of the 1,500 Television Stations, 9,000 Radio Stations, 1,500 News Papers, 1,100 Magazines, 2,400 Publishers – All Owned by the Six Corporations and of course as we are aware according to the US Supreme Court, Corporations are people and Corporations are Big Business and Big Business likes Republicans, because Republicans protect the 1%.

 

There aren’t any more Dan Rather, Peter Jennings, Barbara Walters, Dianne Sawyer, Walter Cronkite, but we do have are Low-Level Puppets hiding behind the word Journalism.

 

If you haven’t noticed this drastic change since the 2010 Mid Term Election into the Presidential 2012 Election and the 2014 Mid Term and now into the 2016 Presidential Election, then you may not be as smart as you think.

President Obama’s Letter To The Editor [New York Times August 11, 2015]

Posted in Extreme Views, Politics, President Obama, Right Wing Extremists, Women's Rights with tags , , , , , , , , , on August 13, 2015 by sheriffali

For the cover story of our Aug. 2 issue, Jim Rutenberg wrote about efforts over the last 50 years to dismantle the protections in the Voting Rights Act of 1965, the landmark piece of legislation that cleared barriers between black voters and the ballot. The story surveyed a broad sweep of history and characters, from United States Chief Justice John Roberts to ordinary citizens like 94-year-old Rosanell Eaton, a plaintiff in the current North Carolina case arguing to repeal voting restrictions enacted in 2013. The magazine received an unusual volume of responses to this article, most notably from President Barack Obama.

 

I was inspired to read about unsung American heroes like Rosanell Eaton in Jim Rutenberg’s ‘‘A Dream Undone: Inside the 50-year campaign to roll back the Voting Rights Act.’’

 

‘‘We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union. …’’ It’s a cruel irony that the words that set our democracy in motion were used as part of the so-called literacy test designed to deny Rosanell and so many other African-Americans the right to vote. Yet more than 70 years ago, as she defiantly delivered the Preamble to our Constitution, Rosanell also reaffirmed its fundamental truth. What makes our country great is not that we are perfect, but that with time, courage and effort, we can become more perfect. What makes America special is our capacity to change.

 

Nearly three decades after Rosanell testified to her unbroken faith in this country, that faith was vindicated. The Voting Rights Act put an end to literacy tests and other forms of discrimination, helping to close the gap between our promise that all of us are created equal and our long history of denying some of us the right to vote. The impact was immediate, and profound — the percentage of African-Americans registered to vote skyrocketed in the years after the Voting Rights Act was passed.

 

But as Rutenberg chronicles, from the moment the ink was dry on the Voting Rights Act, there has been a concentrated effort to undermine this historic law and turn back the clock on its progress. His article puts the recent push to restrict Americans’ voting rights in its proper context. These efforts are not a sign that we have moved past the shameful history that led to the Voting Rights Act. Too often, they are rooted in that history. They remind us that progress does not come easy, but that it must be vigorously defended and built upon for ourselves and future generations.

 

I am where I am today only because men and women like Rosanell Eaton refused to accept anything less than a full measure of equality. Their efforts made our country a better place. It is now up to us to continue those efforts. Congress must restore the Voting Rights Act. Our state leaders and legislatures must make it easier — not harder — for more Americans to have their voices heard. Above all, we must exercise our right as citizens to vote, for the truth is that too often we disenfranchise ourselves.

 

Rosanell is now 94 years old. She has not given up. She’s still marching. She’s still fighting to make real the promise of America. She still believes that We the People have the awesome power to make our union more perfect. And if we join her, we, too, can reaffirm the fundamental truth of the words Rosanell recited.

 

 

President Barack Obama, Washington

 VOTING RIGHTS - SCOTUS JULY 25 2013 OBAMA LETTER VOTING RIGHTS - SCOTUS JULY 25 2013

Republicans Are Trying To Stop Young People And Minorities From Voting

Posted in Uncategorized with tags , , , , , , , , , , , on June 9, 2015 by sheriffali

[NYT] HOUSTON — Hillary Rodham Clinton on Thursday accused Republicans including her potential rivals Jeb Bush, Scott Walker and Rick Perry of “deliberately trying to stop” young people and minorities — both vital Democratic constituencies — from exercising their right to vote, as she presented an ambitious agenda to make it easier for those groups and other Americans to participate in elections.

 

Speaking at Texas Southern University here in front of her largest crowd yet as a candidate for the 2016 Democratic presidential nomination, Mrs. Clinton accused Republicans generally of enacting state voting laws based on what she called “a phantom epidemic of election fraud” because they are “scared of letting citizens have their say.”

 

“What is happening is a sweeping effort to disempower and disenfranchise people of color, poor people and young people from one end of our country to the other,” Mrs. Clinton told a crowd of about 2,000 in a basketball arena at the historically black campus.

 

She called for automatic voter registration in every state when young people turn 18, criticized Republican-sponsored voting laws in North Carolina, Texas and Wisconsin, and urged Congress to take immediate action to reinstate an important provision of the Voting Rights Act that she said the Supreme Court had “eviscerated” in a 2013 ruling.

 

 In addition to areas she said needed to be addressed, like easier online registration, shorter lines at polling precincts and a minimum of 20 days for early voting before an election, Mrs. Clinton called for a nationwide law modeled on one recently passed in Oregon that automatically adds voters to the rolls when they turn 18, using driver’s license data. Residents would have to opt out to avoid being added to the voter rolls.

 

But she also used the occasion to attack by name several of her potential Republican rivals.

 

“There are people who offer themselves to be leaders whose actions have undercut this fundamental American principle,” Mrs. Clinton said.

FIFA – Jack Warner The Divisive Politician

Posted in Uncategorized with tags , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , on June 9, 2015 by sheriffali

[NYT] PORT OF SPAIN, Trinidad and Tobago — The prime minister of this Caribbean republic walked out of a session of Parliament on Friday, angrily chastising a fellow politician and former ally, Jack Warner, who finds himself and his two sons at the center of soccer’s widespread corruption scandal.

 

“Here we are now, a focus of the international world, not for the good and great things but because of the actions of one man,” Kamla Persad-Bissessar, the prime minister of Trinidad and Tobago, admonished Mr. Warner in a confrontation that dominated the television news here Friday night and the front pages of Saturday’s newspapers.

 

A onetime acting prime minister, as well as a former minister of national security and transportation, Mr. Warner, 72, is a polarizing populist, loved and loathed, a man about whom there appears to be no neutral opinion.

 

Four years ago, Mr. Warner lost his lofty position as a vice president of FIFA, soccer’s world governing body, in a bribery scandal. Now he stands accused of racketeering by United States authorities, charged with, among other things, taking a $10 million payment to influence voting on South Africa to host the 2010 World Cup. He has denied any wrongdoing.

 

    Jack Warner Sons Guilty Pleas:

 

Guilty Pleas

 

On July 15, 2013, Daryll Warner secretly pleaded guilty to wire fraud and illegal structuring of financial transactions to evade currency reporting transactions. The plea was related in part to mortgage fraud in the purchase in 2005-6 of a $990,000 condominium in Miami on behalf of himself and two family members.

On Oct. 18, 2013, Daryan Warner, then 45, entered federal court in Brooklyn, also to furtively plead guilty in the soccer investigation. As Mr. Warner began to address the court, he was interrupted by Judge William Kuntz of United States District Court, who offered his usual good-natured instruction to speak clearly.

 

“Take your time,” Judge Kuntz told Mr. Warner, according to an unsealed transcript of the hearing. “Take a drink of water. Slowly and loudly. Channel your inner Lord Vader, not your inner Woody Allen, O.K.? That’s what I say all the time.”
