Hillary Clinton's campaign and the Democratic National
Committee helped pay for research that led to the 'golden
showers'  dossier on Donald Trump

UK Daily Mail  "Hillary Clinton's campaign and the Democratic National Committee reportedly helped pay for research that led to the 'golden showers' dossier on Donald Trump.

"Clinton's campaign lawyer Marc Elias hired research firm Fusion GPS back in April 2016 to look into allegations of Trump's ties to Russia, according to the Washington Post.

"The Washington-based research firm then hired former British intelligence officer Christopher Steele to dig up the unconfirmed dirt on Trump.

"The research resulted in the now infamous dirty dossier that came up with the discredited claims about Trump." . . .

 Townhall has commentary on the activities of Hillary as well   . . . "House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes (R-CA) told Fox News Tuesday that after sending out a subpoena, he is expecting to receive Fusion GPS's financial records within the coming week to get to the bottom of who bankrolled this dossier.

" Not knowing that key information 10 months into the investigation into Russia's role in the election is a "problem," the chairman said. " .  . . .

Clinton campaign, DNC paid for research that led to Russia dossier

WaPo  "The Hillary Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee helped fund research that resulted in a now-famous dossier containing allegations about Donald Trump’s connections to Russia and possible coordination between his campaign and the Kremlin, people familiar with the matter said.

"Marc E. Elias, a lawyer representing the Clinton campaign

and the DNC, retained Fusion GPS, a Washington firm, to conduct the research.

"After that, Fusion GPS hired dossier author Christopher Steele, a former British intelligence officer with ties to the FBI and the U.S. intelligence community, according to the people.

"Elias and his law firm, Perkins Coie, retained the firm in April 2016 on behalf of the Clinton campaign and the DNC. Prior to that agreement, Fusion GPS’s research into Trump was funded by a still unknown Republican client during the GOP primary.

"The Clinton campaign and the DNC through the law firm continued to fund Fusion GPS’s research through the end of October 2016, days before Election Day." . . .

Speaking of Clinton and the Russians:

Republicans see tables turned as Dems face fresh Russia controversies  Video  . . . "After months of batting back accusations of collusion with Moscow in last year’s presidential campaign, Republicans say Democrats are the ones who now have “some explaining to do” as fresh developments raise questions about their own Russia connections.

"First came reports that the FBI knew about a Russian bribery plot tied to nuclear energy interests in the U.S. well before the Obama administration OK’d a mining company sale to a Russian firm, giving it partial control over American uranium reserves." . . .

. . . "The Hill reported, however, that the FBI had evidence as early as 2009 that Russian operatives used bribes, kickbacks and other dirty tactics to expand Moscow’s atomic energy footprint in the U.S., related to a subsidiary of the same Russia firm." . . .

"The publisher Harper Collins, calls it "an inspiring portrait" as Clinton "paved the way for women everywhere". . . 

"The Daily Wire, which first spotted the book, noted that:

From the Daily Wire:  This Page From A New Children’s Book About Hillary Clinton Is Hilariously Crazy
"A new children’s book about Hillary Clinton by author Michelle Markel titled Hillary Rodham Clinton: Some Girls Are Born To Lead, has a hilarious graphic showing groups of famous men from the 1950s, including Albert Einstein, Edward R. Murrow, Elvis Presley, Jackie Robinson, and President Eisenhower, among others, with captions reading:

In the 1950’s it was a man’s world. Only boys could grow up to have powerful jobs. Only boys had no ceilings on their dreams.Girls weren’t supposed to act smart, tough, or ambitious. Even though, deep inside, they have felt that way.

Speaker from Cuba Warns Students Democrats Taken Over by Communists

Legal Insurrection  

“the Democrat party no longer exists”

"Rafael Dagnesses recently spoke to College Republicans in California and warned students that the Democratic Party has been taken over.

"The College Fix reports:

Having fled Cuba, campus speaker warns Democrat Party hijacked by ‘socialist, communist movement’

Rafael Dagnesses was born in Cuba in 1965, and fled the communist country as a young boy with his family after Fidel Castro executed many of his adopted grandfather’s military comrades.

Dagnesses, who has some experience recognizing communism when he sees it, told a room full of College Republicans recently that when he looks at the Democrat Party, he sees socialism and communism.

“I don’t want the Democrat Party to disappear,” said Dagnesses, a Republican who has twice run unsuccessfully for Congress in recent years.

“Balance is good,” he said, “but the Democrat party no longer exists. Rational, middle of the road Democrats have been hijacked by the leftist, socialist, communist movement.”

Dagnesses made the comments as the keynote speaker at a Bruin Republicans meeting at UCLA on Wednesday.

“I don’t quote books,” Dagnesses, a Marine veteran and former police officer, told the students. “I quote reality.”

The title of the talk was “The Failures of Socialism and Why America is Great.”

Leading, naturally to this sort of thing:

Stop Faking Service Dogs ( Loving your pet too much is putting people with real disabilities at risk)

Mariah Media Network

"Here in famously pet-friendly Los Angeles, I encounter dogs that are blatantly not service animals on a daily basis. Recently, during a morning visit to my local café, I laughed when a woman whose tiny dog was thrashing around at the limits of its leash and barking fiercely at other customers loudly proclaimed that it was a service animal. “It’s my service dog,” she said to me, scowling. “You’re not allowed to ask me why I need it!”

"Data backs my anecdote up. A study conducted at the University of California at Davis found that the number of “therapy dogs” or “emotional support animals” registered by animal control facilities in the state increased 1,000 percent between 2002 and 2012. In 2014, a supposed service dog caused a U.S. Airways flight to make an emergency landing after repeatedly defecating in the aisle. A Google News search for “fake service dog” returns more than 2.2 million results. 

"This has recently led state governments to try and curb the problem through law. In Massachusetts, a House bill seeks to apply a $500 fine to pet owners who even falsely imply that their animal may be a service dog. In California, the penalty is $1,000 and up to six months in jail. Twelve states now have laws criminalizing the misrepresentation of a pet as a service animal. That's good, but with all the confusion surrounding what a service dog actually is, there's less and less protection for their unique status." . . .

Liberal Professor Camille Paglia says Dumbing Down of America Began in Public Education

The Constitution  "Liberal, feminist (in the classic sense), college professor Camille Paglia is at it again, triggering America’s leftwing crybabies with her blunt honesty and her perceptive commentary about the ills in modern America.

"In a recent conversation with conservative philosopher (and educator) Christina Hoff Sommers, Paglia reveals that many of our current problems on the college campus really began in public elementary and secondary schools.

“ 'It’s really started at the level of public school education. I’ve been teaching now for 46 years as a classroom teacher, and I have felt the slow devolution of the quality of public school education in the classroom.”

"Paglia argues that the vase majority of today’s college students have no sense of history, no sense of geography, and no understanding of how things work or why they are the way they are.

“ 'What has happened is these young people now getting to college have no sense of history – of any kind! No sense of history. No world geography. No sense of the violence and the barbarities of history. So, they think that the whole world has always been like this, a kind of nice, comfortable world where you can go to the store and get orange juice and milk, and you can turn on the water and the hot water comes out. They have no sense whatever of the destruction, of the great civilizations that rose and fell, and so on – and how arrogant people get when they’re in a comfortable civilization. They now have been taught to look around them to see defects in America – which is the freest country in the history of the world – and to feel that somehow America is the source of all evil in the universe, and it’s because they’ve never been exposed to the actual evil of the history of humanity. They know nothing!” . . .

Creepy Kids’ Book Claims Women Did Nothing In The World Until Hillary Clinton Was Born…

Weasel Zippers   

From the book “Hillary Rodham Clinton: Some Girls Are Born To Lead”

From the UK Daily Mail;  . . . "Published by Balzer and Bray for readers between the ages of four and eight, the book presents Clinton as the ultimate girl-power role model.

"From 'acing tests' and 'upstaging boys in class' Clinton is also shown at her wedding, presenting key speeches and working on the campaign trail.

"It doesn't shy away from the details, stating people 'criticized her - in ways they'd never criticize a man' - as she stood by her husband's 1992 presidential campaign." . . .

 . . . "Although the book doesn't directly state Clinton's ongoing presidential run, it ends: 'No matter what Hillary does next, if she wants to change the world, she'll find a way.' "

The book can make one remember the many hagiographies of Kim Jung Un and his ancestors. Including their athletic prowess.

But back to Hillary-worship:

This grifter cannot be considered alongside these women.
