‘We need to stop the flow of secret, unaccountable money,” Hillary Clinton said Saturday during her vaunted campaign “do over.” That she said this without a trace of irony is no real surprise. Ever since the release of “Clinton Cash” — which documented the Clintons’ love of secret and unaccountable money — the couple’s reaction has been to pretend…
Morning Joe: “Hillary has been on lockdown, in bubble wrap for months” because the Clintons “have no good answers.” “They’re putting Bill Clinton out [in front of the cameras] because he’s better at it than anyone else.”
“What’s clear by now is that this family enterprise was set up as a global shakedown operation, designed to finance and nurture the Clintons’ continued political ambitions. It’s a Hillary super PAC that throws in the occasional good deed.”
“The donations to the Clinton Foundation and the concurrent increase in export approvals of toxicological, biological and chemical agents and associated hardware raise questions about whether the contributions improperly influenced arms export decisions, said Kathleen Clark, a law professor at Washington University in St. Louis. “The goal of conflicts-of-interest standards and government ethics standards is…

During an April interview on This Week, Stephanopoulos suggested Schweizer’s work for President George W. Bush was an indication of the author’s…
“His blatantly partisan questioning when he interviewed Schweizer on ABC’s Sunday morning news program bore a striking resemblance to the content of the attack on Schweizer and his book launched by John Podesta, chairman of the 2016 Hillary Clinton for President Campaign, a few weeks earlier. With the looming presidential race and the subject of…
Regardless, there is no way he should allow himself — or be allowed — to deal in any way with a contest in which Hillary Clinton is the overwhelming favorite to become the Democratic candidate for president.
