Updated: "Hillary’s Back from the Dead; She Should Have Stayed Buried"...

UPDATE:  Hillary Clinton Fractures Wrist After Slipping In India Resort Bathtub  . . . "The website reported that Clinton was taken to a hospital in the city of Jodphur at around 5 a.m. local time Wednesday. Clinton underwent an X-ray and a CT scan that confirmed a hairline fracture of her right wrist." . . .

Now back to our regular program in progress:

". . . Clinton Pity Memorial Tour" 

Shawn Mitchell  "Shocking news. The most fatally flawed presidential candidate in American history was reincarnated last week in India to do an encore comedy routine about her political corpse. Hillary Clinton explained the female problems that caused her unexpected political demise in backwards America to a presumably liberated, progressive, and sexually equal audience in Mumbai at the India Today Conclave. The bewildered Indians probably couldn’t comprehend the primitive sexism they were hearing about: 


"Women candidates, explained the famed political scientist, “don’t do well with married, white women. And part of that is an identification with the Republican Party, and a sort of ongoing pressure to vote the way that your husband, your boss, your son, whoever, believes you should.” 

"Back in the US, the Clinton Pity Memorial Tour produced bipartisan criticism. According to the Congressional newspaper The Hill, Democrats and Republicans alike called her words “cringe worthy,” “absurd,” “annoying and wrong.” “Who lets her say these things?” one former Clinton surrogate wondered. 

"You might think reviews like that would quickly shush Clinton and her institutional defenders. You would be wrong because you would underestimate the iron grip identity politics has on the Left. “Like it or not, studies suggest that Clinton may not be wrong on white women voting like their husbands” bellowed Washington Post columnist Eugene Scott." . . .

Confirmed: Hillary still is Bitter, Tone-Deaf, hates The Deplorables, and is not well  Ever the uniter, loving America and it's people, she expounds:

There’s all that red in the middle, where Trump won. Now, I win the coasts, I win Illinois, Minnesota, places like that. But what the map doesn’t show you is that I won the places that represent two-thirds of America’s gross domestic product. So I won the places that are optimistic, diverse, dynamic, moving forward, and his whole campaign, Make America Great Again, was looking backwards. “You don’t like black people getting rights, you don’t like women getting jobs, you don’t want to see that Indian-American succeeding more than you are, whatever your problem is, I’m going to solve it.

 Democrats, Former Aides Not Pleased With Hillary’s Recent Comments

Guess Who Oakland’s Mayor Was Talking To Before Tipping Off Illegal Aliens To ICE Raid

Hot Air  . . . "In emails we obtained through a public records request, we didn’t find out who her sources were, but we do know who she was talking to before she made her big announcement.

"Emails reveal that hours before the announcement, a group called Centro Legal de la Raza sent the mayor information on what employers should do in case of an ICE raid.

"Centro Legal is a non-profit that provides legal services to undocumented immigrants.

"Those contacts don’t appear to be random. This report shows that more than one year ago St. Jarlath Catholic Church was working with Centro Legal de la Raza, hosting workshops for illegal aliens where they learned how to prepare for deportation efforts. As for Oakland Community Organizations, their primary focus appears to be supporting sanctuary state policies and obstructing ICE.

"The Mayor was also apparently in indirect contact with the Oakland Indie Alliance, a coalition of local, independent businesses. CBS reports that the group received a frantic message in the hours before the Mayor’s announcement saying, “Important Alert! Credible information ICE Raids in Oakland Sunday 2/25 and Monday 2/26” and “This information comes directly from the Mayor.” Given that this is a group of employers who are in the same communications loop with the Mayor and the aforementioned supporters of illegal aliens, it doesn’t require much detective work to figure that part out." . . .

Saudi will develop a nuclear bomb if Iran does, Crown Prince warns as he likens regime's leader to Hitler

UK Daily Mail   ' 'Saudi Arabia does not want to acquire any nuclear bomb, but without a doubt if Iran developed a nuclear bomb, we will follow suit as soon as possible,' Salman told CBS in an interview that will air on Sunday.

"The comment came after he was asked about remarks in which he described Khamenei as 'the new Hitler of the Middle East'.

"Salman said he stood by the remark, adding: '[Khamenei] wants to expand."

" 'He wants to create his own project in the Middle East very much like Hitler who wanted to expand at the time. 

"'Many countries around the world and in Europe did not realize how dangerous Hitler was until what happened, happened. 

"'I don't want to see the same events happening in the Middle East.' "

Disneyland is removing a scene of brides being auctioned off from the Pirates of the Caribbean ride and replacing it with a female pirate selling loot

UK Daily Mail  "Disneyland will be removing a scene of captive women being auctioned off as brides from its Pirates of the Caribbean ride.

"The ride will be closing on April 23 so the Anaheim theme park can remove the infamous scene, reported the Orange County Register.

"When the ride reopens around June 7, a new animatronic scene instead will feature a female pirate auctioning off loot. 

"Since 1967, guests have ridden on one of the ride's small boats through several pirate-themed scenes before coming upon the bride auction.

. . . Above them is a sign that reads: 'Auction: Take a Wench for a Bride' and a rope-tied, redheaded woman, in a pink dress and matching hat, is up for bid when patrons arrive.

'Hey, are you selling her by the pound?' a pirate is heard yelling, while an auctioneer commands: 'Shift yer cargo, dearie, show 'em your larboard side.' " . . .

Secret Debate Tip for GOP

CBS’s Stahl is either an ideologue, intentionally painting a picture that is the polar opposite of the truth by implying that students of color are the true victims here — or else she is so stupid and untutored in the subject that she has no business reporting on it. I could go either way. Your choice. (We need an expression for this sort of broadcast. Something like … FAKE NEWS!)

Ann Coulter  "On CBS’s “60 Minutes” Sunday night, Lesley Stahl asked Education Secretary Betsy DeVos about the “institutional racism” in school discipline.

"It was like neither of them had ever heard of Nikolas Cruz. The Parkland, Florida, school shooter is our most recent case study of what happens when liberals start babbling about “institutional racism.”

"There’s never been such an incredible paper trail as there is with Cruz, leading straight from idiotic liberal ideas directly to mass murder. We know that Broward County Public Schools knew about Cruz’s felonies. We know that his behavior wasn’t reported because it would negatively impact the record of a student of color. The school district bragged about the policy.

"Perhaps having no criminal record would have helped Cruz get a good job someday. But it is a fact that one of the consequences of not reporting his crimes was that HE COULD GET A GUN.

"Unless liberals are going to say that guns had nothing to do with the Parkland shooting, it was the racial bean-counting in school discipline that unleashed this psychotic on innocent students and teachers at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School four weeks ago.

"Stahl treated as cold hard fact the idea that schools punish “students of color more harshly than their white classmates,” citing this real-world example: . . .

One kid was “disruptive” by punching and strangling a science teacher, John Ekblad, giving him a concussion and permanent brain injuries. The African-American student walked away from Ekblad’s body splayed out on the floor, saying, “Did you see me slam that white-ass teacher?”

. . . "A kid expelled from high school is twice as likely to end up in prison!
"Yeah, because he’s a thug. He’s a thug when he’s in high school and he’s a thug a few years later, when he’s an adult." . . .

America Is the Best Place in History for Racial Minorities

What kind of lie must a person embrace to flee to a peaceful, prosperous country whose people treat him generously and beautifully and not think he is lucky to live there? Dennis Prager

Dennis Prager

"At the City College of New York in the late 1930s, my father, an Orthodox Jew, wrote his senior class thesis on anti-Semitism in America.

"He delineated common realities of the era, such as Jews’ admission to law firms, country clubs and colleges being denied or restricted, and various other manifestations of popular and institutional anti-Semitism.

"Yet he taught his two sons—my older brother and me—to believe that we, as Americans, were the luckiest Jews in Jewish history.

"With the obvious exception of Jews living in Israel, he was right. I can state this with some authority, having written a book on anti-Semitism and taught Jewish history at Brooklyn College.

"Despite the existence of anti-Semites and anti-Semitism in America, American Jews are indeed among the luckiest Jews in Jewish history. Even with the re-establishment of a Jewish state in the land of Israel, many more Israeli Jews have moved to America than American Jews have moved to Israel.

"This is not a reflection on Israel, which is a country with a high quality of life that is an unparalleled blessing in Jewish life; rather, it is a reflection on America and how good it is for Jews." . . .

Mike Pompeo Has What Rex Tillerson Didn't: 'Killer Graphics' and Trump's Trust

Time  "Not much is predictable about President Donald Trump’s White House. But around 11 a.m. on any given day, you would likely find CIA chief Mike Pompeo in the Oval Office, briefing the commander-in-chief. For 30 minutes or so, Pompeo would help Trump digest the country’s most closely held secrets about the world’s most pressing conflicts. He used “killer graphics” to keep Trump on point. He carved out time for general “knowledge building” on long-term strategy. He fielded Trump’s questions on any number of topics.

"In other words, long before Trump’s announcement Tuesday morning on Twitter that Pompeo is replacing Rex Tillerson as Secretary of State, Pompeo, a former congressman, was doing what Tillerson had not — bonding with the first American president never to have served either in politics or the military. When Trump and his advisers gather for their national security policy meetings in the Situation Room, Trump goes around the table. First, Pompeo offers Trump the CIA’s latest analysis on the issue at hand, says a senior administration official. Then, he waits. Inevitably, Trump returns to his top spy. “Mike,” the Trump asks, “what do you think I should do?” . . .

Behar Responds to Pence’s Call to Publicly Address Remarks Disparaging Christians: ‘I Sincerely Apologize’

Free Beacon

"The View" co-host Joy Behar publicly apologized Tuesday for her remarks that Vice President Mike Pence had a "mental illness" because of his Christian faith, saying she fell short of respecting all religions.

"Behar made the remarks in February after former White House aide Omarosa Marigault Newman disparaged Pence during a reality show appearance, mocking him for thinking Jesus spoke to him.

" 'Like I said before, it's one thing to talk to Jesus. It's another thing when Jesus talks to you," Behar said. "That's called mental illness, if I'm not correct. Hearing voices."

"She later said she was joking, but Pence said the remarks were "wrong" and it was later revealed by Disney CEO Bob Iger that she telephoned Pence to express contrition for her comments.

"Pence praised her for reaching out, but he told Fox News host Sean Hannity Monday he hoped she would make a public statement to the "tens of millions of Americans" who were offended by her comments.

" 'The View" played the clip of Pence at the outset of Tuesday's show, and Behar responded as Pence hoped.

" 'So I think Vice President Pence is right," Behar said. "I was raised to respect everyone's religious faith, and I fell short of that. I sincerely apologize for what I said.' "

(Updated) Obama Arrests Navy Sailor for a few photos, Hillary’s tens of thousands of illegal emails ignored

Thank God for President Trump who sought justice for this man and publicly recognized the hypocrisy of Hillary Clinton’s numerous alleged felonies.

The Hayride

. . . "President Trump denounced the government’s handling of Saucier’s case, calling it “a political move that contrasted with the velvet-gloved response to former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s mismanagement of classified information through a private server.”

“ 'The president has pardoned Kristian Saucier, a Navy submariner,” White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders said in a press briefing. “Mr. Saucier was 22 years old at the time of his offenses and has served out his 12-months sentence. He has been recognized by his fellow service members for his dedication, skill and patriotic spirit.”

“ 'While serving, he regularly mentored younger sailors and served as an instructor for new recruits. The sentencing judge found that Mr. Saucier’s offense stands in contrast to his commendable military service. The president is appreciative of Mr. Saucier’s service to the country.' ” . . .

Now Private Manning is a whole nuther story:

April 15, 2014: Bradley Manning named honorary grand marshal of San Francisco Pride parade

Bradley Manning's Sentence Fits the Crime  . . . This is not to say that Manning didn't have legitimate grievances in life. Though most notorious criminals throughout history have too.
"But to "get even" with everyone who may have slighted him by stealing some 700,000 diplomatic cables, military reports and combat videos and sharing them with our adversaries is the epitome of treachery.
"While on balance, the treasure trove showed the U.S. as an honest broker advancing freedom and democracy, some material was taken out of context and used for enemy propaganda. The so-called "Collateral Murder" video is case in point. From afar, it's easy to condemn the Apache helicopter crew over Baghdad as they killed two Reuters crew carrying camera sticks resembling a rocket launcher, though this omits the fact that rocket-propelled grenades had been fired at friendly forces in the vicinity.
"Yet that's just that type of distortion, one designed to wound U.S. legitimacy that Manning sought and achieved. His guilty verdict in most of the 21 charges against him and resulting potential 138 years in prison, fits the crime."

UPDATE:  Pardoned Sailor Kristian Saucier Says Obama DOJ Used Him As A Hillary ‘Scapegoat’
. . . “ 'It was a clear attempt by the Department of Justice under President Obama to use me as a scapegoat to take the heat off of Hillary Clinton for mishandling classified information,” he added." . . .
I tend to doubt that because this case has instead magnified Hillary's issues. TD

Hillary and 'What Happened' in India

Jeannie DeAngelis

Thinking back on one of her more ignorant comments, the only explanation for such an awkward misstep is that the ghost of activist Mahatma Gandhi, the guy she once joked ran a gas station in St. Louis, Missouri, shoved her from behind.

. . . "How is Hillary's opinion that white women should have voted for her merely because they're white and women any less sexist and racist than the belief that domineering white males control white females?

"Either way, according to Hillary Clinton, it's subservient white women who are responsible for her not having the opportunity to slip and fall down the Grand Staircase in the White House!

. . . 

. . . "Aroon Purie probed the matronly seer by bringing up Trump and Russian collusion.  Purie asked, "Do they have something on him?"  Clinton, whom they have lots on, and who has a trail of money behind her that reaches to India and back, replied: "Follow the money."

"Speaking of "following the money," Hillary "Uranium One" Clinton amused the audience when she expressed the opinion  that "Trump [has] quite an affinity for dictators."  Hillary said, "He really likes their authoritarian posturing and behavior.  He does have a preexisting attitude of favorability toward these dictators, but I think it's more than that with Putin and Russia."

"Then, two days after saying the United States does not "deserve" the presidency of Donald Trump, indefatigable Hillary, looking a lot like Trump-critic and U.S. skier Lindsey Vonn, wound down her "What Happened" tour of India by sliding down a flight of stairs." . . . Much more at the link.

“She put herself in a position where [Democrats] from states that Trump won will have to distance themselves from her even more,” said one former senior Clinton aide. “That’s a lot of states.”…
“She’s annoying me. She’s annoying everyone, as far as I can tell,” said one 2016 Clinton surrogate. “Who lets her say these things?” . . .
