Hillary Clinton says Bill's sex assault allegations are 'different,' and the accuser speaks up

Russia Today



"Hillary Clinton got called out for hypocrisy after she argued that sexual harassment allegations against her husband, Bill Clinton, were different from those faced by high-profile Republicans, as they were thoroughly investigated.
"In an interview to CNN's Christiane Amanpour on Tuesday, the former Democratic presidential nominee rejected parallels between allegations of sexual misconduct against her husband and the ones that have been leveled against President Donald Trump, and those that marred the confirmation process of Justice Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court.
There is a very significant difference. That is the intense, long-lasting, partisan investigation that was conducted in the 90s.
"The former secretary of state added that "if the Republicans, starting with President Trump on down want a comparison, they should welcome such an investigation themselves."
"Kavanaugh, who was sworn in on Monday after weeks of bitter partisan bickering, has faced allegations of sexual misconduct from several women, including claims he took part in gang-rape parties and was involved in sexual assault during his high-school years. The most prominent accuser, Dr Christine Blasey Ford, testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee. Following her testimony and that of Kavanaugh, which both held Americans glued to their television screens for hours, the White House ordered a new FBI probe into Kavanaugh, who had previously undergone six background investigations as part of the George W. Bush administration and as a judge on the DC Circuit Court of Appeals.
Clinton's words did not go down well with Juanita Broaddrick, one of Bill Clinton's most famous accusers. In 1999, she alleged in an interview with Dateline NBC that Clinton raped her in 1978 when he was serving as the attorney general of Arkansas.
"The ex-President himself has never addressed the allegations, referring them to his legal representative. His lawyer, David Kendall, denied the allegations at the time. Broaddrick's story resurfaced during the 2016 presidential election campaign in light of the growing popularity of the #MeToo movement, which encourages victims of sexual assault to come forward.
"As tensions around Kavanaugh's confirmation were gaining momentum, Broaddrick demanded an FBI investigation into her own allegations against Clinton, accusing Democrats, who called for a thorough FBI probe into Kavanaugh, of opportunism and "double standards."
" 'It's not politically advantageous for them to circle around me and support me," she told Fox News in September.
"Responding to Clinton's fresh interview, Broaddrick did not mince her words, calling the former senator a "lying hypocrite."
" 'My case was never litigated," she wrote on Twitter, reiterating her call for an investigation into the allegations." . . .
YOU LYING HYPOCRITE My case was NEVER litigated!!That’s why I’m calling for an investigation now. IF I CAN GET 100k signatures, the WORLD will KNOW IT, Hillary. THEN where will you hide?
"Broaddrick has launched a Change.org petition, asking for a criminal investigation into “Bill Clinton's sex crimes.” The petition has so far garnered over 34,000 signatures. It requires 100,000 to earn a White House response.
"Hillary Clinton has found herself in hot water in the past for standing by her top staffer Burns 
"She also drew widespread criticism when she claimed that her loss had contributed to the rise of the ”Me Too” movement, saying that "although it was a wave that was building," her election debacle "probably accelerated that wave" in April.
"Clinton's record as a paragon of women's rights has also been repeatedly tested by her close ties to disgraced Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein. The Hollywood mogul donated to Clinton's campaign and even hosted several fundraisers for her."

Carter Page Sues DNC And Its Law Firm Over The Steele Dossier

iOTWreport  "DC: Former Trump campaign associate Carter Page filed a defamation lawsuit Monday against the Democratic National Committee and its law firm, which commissioned the infamous Steele dossier.
"Page filed the suit in federal court in Oklahoma against the DNC, the law firm, Perkins Coie, and two of its partners, Marc Elias and Michael Sussmann.
"Perkins Coie, which also represented the Hillary Clinton campaign, is the firm that hired Fusion GPS, the opposition researcher that investigated Donald Trump’s links to Russia.
"Elias was Perkins Coie’s main contact to Fusion GPS, which was founded by three former Wall Street Journal reporters.
"As part of the $1 million project, Fusion GPS hired former British spy Christopher Steele to conduct the investigation. The result was a 35-page dossier full of allegations that the Kremlin is blackmailing Trump and that the Trump campaign conspired with Russian operatives to influence the election. (RELATED: Here Is How Much The DNC And Clinton Campaign Paid For The Trump Dossier)
"Page, an energy consultant, features prominently in the dossier, though he vehemently denies its allegations.
"In the report, which was provided to numerous journalists and the FBI, Steele alleged that Page was the Trump campaign’s back channel to the Kremlin for the purposes of conspiring to influence the election. Steele cited anonymous sources who claimed that it was Page’s idea to release stolen DNC emails through Wikileaks. The dossier also alleged that Page met secretly with two Kremlin insiders, Igor Sechin and Igor Diveykin, during a trip to Moscow in July 2016. Page has repeatedly denied meeting with either man."

'Red Guards of Austin' Place Severed Pig Heads in Front of Campaign Offices

Now they sit back and enjoy the publicity. Have Bernie Sanders or  Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez commented on this? Check with CNN to see. TD

Referred to as "Antifa" here.  Far Left Watch reported:
"After attacking five separate GOP offices, Antifa has escalated their extremist activities by placing severed pig heads at multiple polling locations and campaign offices in the Austin, TX area.
"This comes directly on the heels of the media accusing Republicans of “seizing” on the “angry mob” mantra in order to generate a better turnout for the midterms.
"The Red Guards Austin recently shared a blog post with their 8,000 Facebook followers in which they commemorated Mao Zedong’s brutal communist revolution that resulted in millions of people being slaughtered. In this blog post, they called for a boycott of the “bourgeois elections” and advocated for organized revolutionary violence."

PJ Media  "Maoist revolutionaries* across the country are demanding violent revolts on Election Day to protest what they call a "bourgeois farce," according to their recent posts on social media. As Far Left Watch reports, the Red Guards of Austin escalated its war against "imperialism" last week by placing severed pig heads at "polling places and campaign offices" in and around the Austin, Texas, area.

"The group is calling for revolutionary violence rather than participation in the “bourgeois elections.” Red Guards LA shared the grotesque photos on Twitter:

Elizabeth Warren’s DNA Test Proves She Was Lying

. . . Warren presented a recipe she had published in her cousin’s cookbook as evidence of her background. It was signed “Elizabeth Warren — Cherokee.” Later we learned that even the recipe was taken verbatim from an article in The New York Times five years earlier. It’s  easy to see what’s going on. Warren wants to dull Donald Trump’s “Fauxcahontas” jibes because she is about to run for president. "
The Federalist 
Acting as if the results of the senator's DNA test are a vindication of her initial claims is an assault on reason.
"Why did Sen. Elizabeth Warren spend all these years claiming to be a Native American?
"One plausible answer might be that her family had lied to her, or were also misled about their heritage, and that Warren truly believed she was Cherokee. This happens relatively often, I suppose. Then again, few people exhibit as much certitude, and gain as many benefits, over a claim that’s so obscure and unverifiable.
"The second is that Warren herself lied or exaggerated her heritage, knowing full well that her contention to Cherokee ancestry was likely nothing more than lore. She then latched on to this negligible history to gain traction in an academic field that was searching for more diversity in their candidates.
"We now know that the second option is more probable after the prospective presidential candidate decided to make a huge deal out of taking a DNA test, that, in reality, only proves she is as white as I am. A ludicrously unskeptical Boston Globe story about Warren’s dramatic decision to take the test begins by contending that there’s “strong evidence’’ of Warren’s Native American’s ancestry dating back 6 to 10 generations—which creates the impression that she has Native American family littered over the past 100 years.
"In truth, we learn, it’s possible that Warren’s great-great-great grandmother was partially Native American. This would make her around 1/32nd American Indian, a far cry from any reasonable threshold to embrace minority status for a job. That’s exactly what she did starting in the 1990s, before walking back her claims when it became politically expedient.
"Then again, being 1/32 (and really, the math says 1/64th) Native American is the high-end possibility. It is just as possible that Warren 1/1,024th Native American. (The story initially claimed it was 1/512th.) So maybe her great-great-great-great grandmother was part Cherokee.

Stormy Daniels Loses Libel Lawsuit Over Trump’s ‘Con Job’ Tweet


Bloomberg  "Stormy Daniels’s libel lawsuit over a tweet by Donald Trump accusing her of “a total con job” was thrown out by a judge who said the president was engaging in free speech.
"The adult film star, whose real name is Stephanie Clifford, claimed she was threatened by an unknown man in a Las Vegas parking lot in 2011 for agreeing to cooperate with a magazine article about a tryst she says she had with Trump in 2006. After her lawyer released a composite sketch of the man, Trump accused Clifford in an April tweet of “a total con job" concerning a “nonexistent man.”
“ 'The court agrees with Mr. Trump’s argument because the tweet in question constitutes ‘rhetorical hyperbole’ normally associated with politics and public discourse in the U.S.,” U.S. District Judge S. James Otero in Los Angeles said in a ruling Monday. “The First Amendment protects this type of rhetorical statement.”
"Trump’s lawyers had argued that Clifford -- far from being harmed -- has benefited financially from her public dispute with the president." . . .


Save the Democrats: Crush Them at the Polls; Help them reverse their unicorn ride into hell.

Deroy Murdock
Screaming agitators repeatedly interrupted Kavanaugh’s confirmation proceedings and had to be dragged from the Senate Judiciary Committee’s (SJC) hearing room. Rather than beg these unhinged hooligans to cease and desist, Democratic leaders encouraged their eruptions.


. . . It now is the solemn duty of every voter, volunteer, activist, advocate, donor, operative, and candidate on the center-right to assure that the Democrats experience this desperately needed, self-cleansing, paradigm-shifting wipeout.  . . .
. . . "To these leftist words, Antifa will add the music of mob rule: riots, property destruction, physical intimidation, street violence, death threats, and possibly even more severe mayhem — all in the name of Resistance. 
"If Democrats barely lose (say, the GOP keeps a three-seat House majority), they will blame Russia, voter suppression, patriarchy, white-nationalist lead poisoning, global warming, sexism, Islamophobia, homophobia, high gas prices, income inequality, and racism, racism, racism. 
"However, if Republicans romp, boost their Senate majority by three to eight seats (ideally securing a filibuster-proof, 60-seat majority) and score an additional dozen-plus House districts, vanquished Democrats might cry together on November 7 and conclude: 
" 'We blew it.
" 'It’s not Trump. It’s not Russia. It’s not collusion. It’s not whitey. It’s not toxic masculinity. It’s us. 
“ 'We blew it in 2016, too. 
“ 'Our flawed nominee campaigned on an elitist platform against millions of ‘deplorables’ and offered no positive vision. Lazily, Hillary skipped Wisconsin entirely and spent too little time in Michigan. As NBC News concluded a week after the election: ‘Trump Out-Campaigned Clinton by 50 Percent in Key Battleground States in Final Stretch.’ Trump beat her, fair and square." . . .

"He pointed to the passage of the massive omnibus spending bill earlier this year and how the House Republican leadership did not stand against the Democrat agenda and fight for conservative priorities. He said that the Republicans’ tendency to cave to Democrats without fighting for the priorities that people elected Republicans for would change if he secures the Speakership." . . .

One union guy who's fired up for Trump

If people like Westbrook and Vogel coalesce around the GOP, the Democrats could be in trouble. And if the Democrats keep supporting people who claw at the doors of the Supreme Court in protest, or harass Republicans and their families at dinners, or talk nonstop about impeachment or echo Hillary Clinton’s sentiment that: “You cannot be civil with a political party that wants to destroy what you stand for,” then they may do what I thought unlikely: stop their own blue wave mid-flow
NY Post  "Jason Vogel is fired up to vote. He says his passion crystallized two weeks ago when he saw just how chaotic Washington would be if the Democrats seized power in Congress. When Democratic senators smeared Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh as an attempted rapist without proof, and angry protestors stormed the Capitol, he says he grew increasingly concerned.

“ 'Hard to imagine that occurring every day, but you begin to realize that is exactly what would happen if I didn’t turn out to vote,” he said.


"Vogel is with his family at the Erie Insurance Arena to rally for Trump and local GOP Congressman Mike Kelly, who is running for re-election. The Vogels are seated far away from the stage, but that doesn’t seem to dampen their enthusiasm.


"The 40-year-old union steward for the local Teamsters 397 says he became motivated to vote for Kelly when he realized everything important to him is being championed by President Trump and is on Kelly’s ballot: “The Second Amendment, trade, job creation and keeping a good economy going, that comes to a daily fight if the Republicans lose the midterms,” he said.


“ 'A lot of my friends feel the same way. We ask ourselves, ‘Why would you vote Democrat?’ Our lives certainly weren’t better under their way of doing business.' ” . . .

The Misandrist Editorial the Washington Post Should Be Ashamed Of...(Updated)

By the female Sarah Hoyt at PJ Media


I had to look this word up: Examples of misandry in a Sentence; Matriarchy Now’ was encouraging misandry and oppressing men. — Sebastian Matthew, Billboard, "Meet The 17-Year-Old Activist Behind New Line 'Matriarchy Now'," 24 Aug. 2017
"Why can’t women stop buying the Marxist narrative?
"If you’ve read this and you’re going “uh, what?” because you’re a woman and not Marxist, don’t worry. I’m not out of my ever loving mind. Well, not more than usual, at any rate.
What I’m doing is echoing an editorial by Victoria Bissell Brown published in The Washington Post who starts her insanely stupid article by asking:
Bissell Brown
Why can’t men organize to change themselves?
"Why, Vicky, (yeah, I’m fairly sure you don’t want me to call you Vicky, but since you’re functioning at about a six-year-old level, that’s the best you deserve) that’s an amazing question, that probably made the Post editors drool at your amazingness. It’s almost as good as “why can’t you take a valium like a normal human being, and stop being crazy?” which is what your editorial made me ask.
"Her article starts with a confession of spousal abuse:
I yelled at my husband last night. Not pick-up-your-socks yell. Not how-could-you-ignore-that-red-light yell. This was real yelling. This was 30 minutes of from-the-gut yelling. Triggered by a small, thoughtless, dismissive, annoyed, patronizing comment. Really small. A micro-wave that triggered a hurricane. I blew. Hard and fast.
"Okay, first, if you’re in the habit of yelling at your husband for not picking up his socks, Vicky, no wonder that he blows through red lights. You probably don’t let him own a gun and the poor man has no other way to escape your tyrannical, insane blow ups.
"What you’re doing is straight up spousal abuse, because you’re “triggered”. No? How would you feel if your husband yelled at you for no reason because he was “triggered”? "Would you think that was okay?" . . .

. . . screaming at her husband is well-founded. Why? Because he’s a male. Even a male who will sit there letting her scream at him.

Boston Globe Update and Correction: Elizabeth Warren Is 1/1,024 Native American… NOT 1/512

The Gateway Pundit




. . . "Elizabeth Warren released a DNA study today that claims she is 1/512th Native American.
"The AP reported:
Responding to years of derision by President Donald Trump and other critics, Sen. Elizabeth Warren on Monday released a report on a DNA analysis that provides strong evidence she does, in fact, have Native American heritage.The analysis on the Massachusetts Democrat was done by Stanford University professor Carlos D. Bustamante. He concluded Warren’s ancestry is mostly European but says “the results strongly support the existence of an unadmixed Native American ancestor.”Bustamante, a prominent expert in the field of DNA analysis, determined Warren’s pure Native American ancestor appears “in the range of six to 10 generations ago.”…But if her ancestor is 10 generations back, that could mean she’s just 1/512th Native American,according to the report . That could further excite her critics instead of placating them.

"UPDATE— The AP issued a correction — The DNA test revealed that Elizabeth Warren is not 1/512 Native American, she’s 1/1,024. That’s 0.0009765625." . . .

That the best you can do for Native American DNA, Elizabeth Warren?
Nice try, Liz.  But you're still a fake Indian whose real problem is that you used a drop of ancestry to game an entire system.
. . . "Warren was touted in recruitment literature for her Native American heritage by Harvard and Penn, while Fordham Law Review hailed her as Harvard Law's "first woman of color," something she never tried to disabuse the university of at the time as the former house-flipper bit and clawed her way to the top.
"She liked the leg up on other white applicants, and never mind that she displaced a genuine Native American from the affirmative action slot.  Can a white guy with 1/512 African-American blood now be able to claim that black affirmative action law professor slot now, Liz?" . . .
Remember Warren's Pow Wow Chow?

Rage when you disagree: How ‘safe spaces’ led to today’s political mobs

Karol Markowicz


"What’s behind the recent spread of outraged mobs on US streets, wild-eyed and throwing violent fits because their favored political outcome didn’t happen? How did so many Americans give up on resolving disagreements through discussion and turn the fact that a disagreement exists into an excuse for a tantrum?
"Campuses started setting up “safe spaces” well before 2015, when the news hit our media in earnest: College students were literally taking shelter from the possibility of hearing opinions they might disagree with.
"For all the mockery the idea received, we’re seeing that principle extended to the real world. The recent outbursts on our streets have their root in the idea that only one opinion is the correct one and all others must be shut down.
"And politicians are encouraging the idea that disagreement is a personal attack: “You cannot be civil with a political party that wants to destroy what you stand for, what you care about,” Hillary Clinton said last week." . . .

Boy, nine, ruins Supreme Court prospects

"Admit it. You knew this was bound to happen.
"Teresa Sue Klein of Flatbush, Brooklyn, was in a convenience store when a mother and her two children went in and went past her. Klein then got highly upset, claiming that the nine-year-old boy had sexually assaulted her by grabbing her posterior. She immediately made a scene and called 911 for the police, demanding that the little boy be arrested for sexually assaulting her. They all went outside the store, where bystanders got verbally involved, with Klein defiant. Multiple cellphone videos show the little boy and his younger sister wailing at the top of their lungs, obviously scared. The store videos show that the boy went past Klein with both hands in plain view, but his oversized backpack may have brushed against her. Fortunately, no arrests were made.
"But, borrowing a page from the Kavanaugh hearing, shouldn’t the FBI be involved, maybe do a background check on him? Maybe he got drunk in kindergarten on too much root beer and tickled, or even may have kissed a girl (I have it on good authority that his class picture shows him wearing a cap backwards and he’s brandishing a toy gun). The FBI should definitely do a background check. Or two. Or three. Or seven.
"On a related note, a six-year-old boy was suspended from kindergarten for sexual harassment, namely, he kissed a girl, a classmate. Kindergarten kids kissing each otheroccasionally happens, mostly due to imitating parents (incidentally, when a kindergarten girl kisses a boy, no one gets suspended). A lot depends on whether there is a feminist around." . . .
