Newt Gingrich Dismantles ABC News’ Martha Raddatz Over Anti-Trump Coverage (video)
The bias of Raddatz is as clear as it could be. As you can see that several times when he gets into the Clinton scandals revealed by her own emails recently released by WikiLeaks she tries to interrupt Speaker Gingrich.

1.4 Million in 32 States to Lose Health Insurance as ObamaCare Fails
It is like we and others reported in 2009/10, Obamacare is a system that is designed to fail. Obamacare designer John Gruber said that they had to lie to sell it.
Yours truly went to insurance school and passed the state exam on the first attempt so understanding how it was designed to fail wasn’t exactly rocket science.
Here is the bad news from Bloomberg:
A growing number of people in Obamacare are finding out their health insurance plans will disappear from the program next year, forcing them to find new coverage even as options shrink and prices rise.
At least 1.4 million people in 32 states will lose the Obamacare plan they have now, according to state officials contacted by Bloomberg. That’s largely caused by Aetna Inc., UnitedHealth Group Inc. and some state or regional insurers quitting the law’s markets for individual coverage.
Washington Post Blackout of Multiple New Clinton Scandals Revealed by WikiLeaks

Networks Trash Trump, Steer Clear of Clinton Scandals Revealed by WikiLeaks
The stats in the image above are just from last night. In the period between last Friday evening, October 7, to Thursday morning, October 13, the morning and evening news shows on ABC, CBS and NBC spent 4 hours and 13 minutes reporting on accusations against Donald Trump for sexual harassment and/or assault, while the revelations from Wikileaks regarding Hillary Clinton’s staff’s emails received coverage for a paltry 36 minutes. That is literally a 7-to-1 ratio.
UPDATE! Watch Hillary Lie to Meet the Press! Campaign Emails Show Clinton Pushed Obama is an Unpatriotic Muslim Angle in 2008
UPDATE – Her campaign put it out and now watch her lie about it from 2008:
It wasn’t so long ago the elite media liked to ask Republicans, “Do YOU think Obama is a Muslim? Are YOU questioning his patriotism?” When in fact they should have been asking Democrats aligned with Hillary Clinton.
In a group email exchange Hillary’s inner circle was having a discussion on how to push “negative facts” about Barack Obama.
Included in the discussion are:
John Podesta, Hillary’s campaign chairman.
Kristi Fuksa, a pollster with the Democratic firm Greenberg Quinlan Rosner Research.
Paul Begala, political strategist for the 1992 Clinton for President Campaign.
Tara McGuiness, Senior Vice President at the Center for American Progress, the Clinton’s pet think tank.
Tom Matzzie, a former director of MoveOn
Susan Buffet, serves on the board of several foundations and charities, several of which walk a delicate legal line of serving the interests of the Democratic Party, a technique mastered by George Soros.
Here is the email with the “negative facts”:
UPDATE – The Washington Post asked Paul Begala about this. He said that they called this “The McCain Survey” because they were worried that Republicans would attack Obama using these talking points.
So we are to believe that very early in the 2008 primary when the Clinton’s and the Obama’s hated each other, Hillary’s inner circle was concerned about what Republicans might say about him? Of course McCain himself never pushed these talking points aside from the tax raising. McCain even said, “You have nothing to fear from an Obama Presidency”
Elite Media on Wikileaks Revelations on Hillary….
From the great Antonio F. Branco, posted at Legal Insurrection:
Hillary Campaign Email: “she says things that are untrue, which candidly she often does”
Thanks to WikiLeaks obtaining the emails from Hillary for President campaign top staffers we have gotten some real insights into just how off the charts Orwellian, dishonest and in some cases criminal these people really are.
In this email dated March 16, 2016 John Podesta, Hilllary’s campaign chairman, Brent J. Budowsky, a political reporter from The Hill and Huffington Post, and Roy Spence, a noted ad agency CEO, are discussing how Hillary can borrow some of Bernie’s ideas in an effort to attract his voters. They also are very candid about Hillary having a problem with lying.
The email:
Larry Elder poses the hard question to gleeful NeverTrumper’s…

NYT “Trump Touched Me” October Surprise Story Has Serious Problems…UPDATED!
This happens every time just before an election.
The NYT accused John McCain of having an affair with a lobbyist and it was just a lie.
The NYT in coordination with the Obama Campaign accused Herman Cain of having multiple affairs and touching women. It also was shown to be a bunch of lies as Cain was able to show that he was not even in the cities mentioned by several of the women. All of the women knew David Axelrod, who was Obama’s campaign manager. One even lived in the same building as him.
[UPDATE II – Kit Daniels at Infowars verifies what we showed below and digs up a few other facts. We are NOT fans of Infowars as some of their journalism is shoddy, but this is a solid piece of journalism and credit is given when it is due – Editor]
Now the NYT says that Trump touched a lady who was flying first class with him decades ago.
Quote NYT:
More than three decades ago, when she was a traveling businesswoman at a paper company, Ms. Leeds said, she sat beside Mr. Trump in the first-class cabin of a flight to New York. They had never met before.
About 45 minutes after takeoff, she recalled, Mr. Trump lifted the armrest and began to touch her.
The New York Times story is highly suspect not just because of their recent election history of dropping lies like this, the cute timing of this story and, thanks to Hillary’s campaign emails being released by WikiLeaks, we know that the NYT coordinates with the Democrats as a matter of routine – even if you toss all of that aside…….
………first class arm rests do not swing up, are large and are completely immobile. Take a look at these pictures of what first class looks like and it becomes obvious why the story falls apart:
But what if it was on an old Boeing 727 or 737? OK take a look:
UPDATE – We now know that the alleged flight was a 727 – Editor

Hacked Hillary Email: WSJ pollster reached out to help Hillary’s campaign
Yes, the Wall Street Journal too.
Peter Hart, the pollster for WSJ reached out the the Clinton Campaign to help them. How generous.
The email:
This is no surprise to your truly as the WSJ/NBC polls have been shoddy for some time now, which reminds me that it is a good idea to post a new “Fine Art of Poll Rigging” editorial soon.
In the latest WSJ/NBC Poll Peter Hart polled 500 registered voters, but since Motor Voter legislation almost everyone is registered to vote.
OK, so how many people that Hart of the 500 people polled actually plan to vote? Just 83.
OK so was the poll balanced? Were Democrats over sampled? Of course they were. Among the voters 46 voted for Obama, 33 voted for Romney.
So why poll people who have no intention of voting? Because those people are the least informed and will regurgitate the narrative they see in the elite media because they don’t know any better.
NYT Reporter gave Clinton Campaign veto power over quotes used. Submits article for ‘approval’…
WikiLeaks has shown us via Hillary Clinton’s own campaign emails that there is no line between the Democratic Party and most of the elite media that covers them.
The rules seem to work like this – If Republican miss speaks it is screamed loud and proud by the elite media and there are no “do overs” or revisions, but if you are a Democrat not only do you get do overs, you get to pick and choose what quotes are used and even get the questions in advance.
In this email NYT reporter Mark Liebovich asks Clinton Campaign Communication Director Jennifer Palmieri for permission to use certain quotes, submits his piece to her for approval and gives them veto power on what should or should not be included. So much for journalistic ethics.
The Email:
On Jul 7, 2015, at 10:30 PM, Leibovich, Mark <leibovich@nytimes.com> wrote: i wanted the option to use all — and you could veto what you didn’t want. That’s why i selected the 5 or 6 I sent to you…The moose is good, but I’d really love to use the other things i sent, too. They were all on point.
Leibovich opens his article using his sighting of a moose as a “point of connection” with Hillary. As instructed he conceals Clinton’s mention of Palin and all other portions of the interview the campaign vetoed.
Despite allowing the Clinton campaign the ability to veto any interview content, in his article, Leibovich brags that even after the campaign sent him an email in the leadup to his story instructing him that the campaign office was “OTR” or off-the-record, he responded by writing that he “wasn’t abiding by any ‘office is off the record provisions.’”
After dishing out the marching orders, Palmieri finishes by telling Leibovich, “Pleasure doing business.”
Hillary Email: Hillary Illegally Revealed National Security Sources and Methods to Donors
The recklessness and stupidity is mind boggling:
The emails are coming out so fast that it is getting hard to catch up with them all as they are being released in chunks of 1000-4000 at a time. We will post the exact email link soon.
The New York Post is reporting this as well:
In her secret speeches to Wall Street bankers, Hillary Clinton backed free trade and claimed politicians need leeway to make backroom deals — and may have disclosed classified details of the raid on Osama bin Laden’s compound, according to the latest emails disclosed by WikiLeaks.
Hacked Hillary Email: NYT/CNBC Debate Moderator John Harwood Brags About Provoking Trump to Hillary Campaign
These emails are so revealing. They are just one big cozy happy family.
Here we have NYT/CNBC reporter DNC operative and debate moderator being so proud of himself, running back to Hillary for President Campaign Chairman John Podesta, so he can brag about his mission to provoke Donald Trump. So much for journalistic ethics.
Read this email HERE as an example. Keep in mind that only 1% of these emails have been released so far.
The Daily Caller has a nice summary:
The latest batch of emails from the account of Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta show New York Times reporter and CNBC anchor John Harwood giving the Clinton campaign tips about other candidates and bragging about feeling vindicated by provoking Donald Trump as a debate moderator.
In a December 2015 email to Podesta, Harwood bragged about his much-criticized debate performance in which he asked Trump “Let’s be honest, is this a comic book version of a presidential campaign?”
UPDATE FNC:
CNBC correspondent John Harwood emailed Podesta numerous times, on some occasions to request an interview and other times to offer advice. On May 8, 2015, Harwood wrote an email with the subject line “Watch out.”
“Ben Carson could give you real trouble in a general [election],” Harwood wrote before linking to video clips of an interview Harwood did with the former pediatric neurosurgeon.
Hacked Hillary Email: New York Times Provided Interview Questions to Bill Clinton in Advance
…and friends, one can be sure they would never be so courteous to Sarah Palin.
Read the email for yourself HERE.
This email is between Hillary for President Campaign Chairman John Podesta, former Time Magazine Editor Strobe Talbot, Nancy Soderberg, a former Deputy NSA for Bill Clinton who is now at Florida University, and the Clinton Foundation’s Director of Foreign Policy Ami Desai.
As one can see by yet another example on an already previous pile of evidence, there is no separation between the elite media, the Clinton Foundation and Hillary’s role in the State Department.
Brietbart provides a good summary:
In an email sent to Podesta and several others, the Clinton Foundation’s Director of Foreign Policy Ami Desai requests feedback on answers to “questions they sent that are related to international issues”:
[A]s you may know, WJC is doing Q+A with Nick Kristof on Wednesday (at the Foursquare Conference). It’s supposed to be closed press, but. Below are the questions they sent that are related to international issues – namely Israelis/Palestinians, China (trade/Tibet/Taiwan), and Greece/Euro. Are there any WJC Admin accomplishments that we should equip him to be able to highlight? [I put some initial ideas in CAPS below; and we also have requested input from the State Department.] We’d welcome any feedback by Sunday. Thanks, Ami
A quick review of recent columns by Kristof reveals a lot of Clinton water-carrying with headlines like “Donald Trump, Groper in Chief” and “How to Cover a Charlatan Like Trump” and “When a Crackpot Run For President” where he makes the case that “journalistic efforts at fairness may risk normalizing Donald Trump.”
In the email, Desai reveals four questions on international issues that Kristof planned to ask Clinton. The first question is framed by crediting Clinton with coming within a “whisker from a Middle East peace deal.” Three of the questions are followed by proposed answers in all CAPS from the Clinton Foundation.
* At the very end of your presidency, it seemed that you came a whisker from a Middle East peace deal, and the Clinton parameters are still generally acknowledged to be the basis of an Israeli-Palestinian peace deal if it comes. But will it ever come? Aren’t demographics and the growth of settlements making it harder to see a two -state solution emerging any time soon?
* For most of human history, China has been the dominant power in the world. We just happen to live in a relatively brief 300-year stretch when China was weak. But is China regaining its customary position as the dominant power in the world today, and should that worry us? Should we just get used to it? And given that China is our creditor, where do we find leverage to change Chinese behavior, whether on Tibet or Taiwan or human rights or trade?
1. REMINDER ABOUT GETTING CHINA INTO WTO; AND DEVELOPING APEC TO ENHANCE REGIONAL INFLUENCE; AND WJC ADMIN SUCCESS IN BUILDING-UP THE US ECONOMY AND IMPORTANCE OF HAVING DOMESTIC ECONOMIC STRENGTH
* Greece looks as if it’s headed for default, the Euro zone may be imploding, and the American economy is pretty much stagnant. If you were president today, what would you be doing right now?
1. REMINDER ABOUT BAILING OUT MEXICO AND HOW UNPOPULAR THAT WAS BUT ENDED UP BEING SUCCESSFUL – IMPORTANCE OF SOMETIMES HAVING TO MAKE UNPOPULAR DECISIONS
2. AND IMPORTANCE OF INVESTING IN JOB CREATION AS A WAY TO WORK OUT OF THIS CRISIS AND GIVE PEOPLE TOOLS THEY NEED TO LIFT THEMSELVES UP – MENTION WJC ADMIN ACCOMPLISHMENTS
* There are a lot of potential crises that give nightmares to international strategists. A nuclear Iran. A belligerent or collapsing North Korea. A revolution in Saudi Arabia. A naval clash with China. Cyber attack. So what keeps you awake at night? Which of these do you worry about most? Or is there another peril that we in the media haven’t adequately spotlighted?
1. REMIDER ABOUT WJC’S THREE CHALLENGES AND HOW WJC ADMIN HELPED ADDRESS EACH ONE, DIRECTLY AND INDIRECTLY: UNEQUALITY (IN INCOMES/OPPORTUNITY), INSTABILITY (DUE TO GLOBAL INTERCONNECTEDNESS, DISEASE AND HATE AND EVERYTHING CAN BE SPREAD ACROSS BORDERS EASILY), UNSUSTAINABILITY (DUE TO RESOURCE SCARCITY AND CLIMATE CHANGE)
Hacked Hillary Email: Hillary’s Steve Harvey Interview Scripted in Advance
We are finding this out to be true more and more with Hillary. She does an interview and the questions asked of her are either provided by her own staff or are coordinated with the the reporter/interviewer.
Read the email for yourself HERE.
The Washington Free Beacon summarizes:
Talk show host Steve Harvey provided Hillary Clinton’s campaign with the exact questions he would ask of Clinton during a February interview, according to an internal campaign memo sent a week before the interview and obtained by the Washington Free Beacon.
“Steve is known to be a host who goes out of his way to make his guests feel comfortable,” two of Clinton’s top communications aides wrote in a memo to Clinton a week ahead of her interview. “We coordinated closely with the show’s producers on the script and format of the show.”
The memo, sent to Clinton on Feb. 17, 2016, by campaign spokeswoman Karen Finney and communications aide Betsaida Alcantara was attached to an email posted on the website DCLeaks.
Hacked Hillary Email: Boston Globe Coordinated With Hillary to “Maximize Her Presence”
The hacked Hillary Clinton Campaign emails have been very revealing of just how in bed the elite media is corrupted and in the tank with the Democratic Party. It seems just by what has been released so far is that there essentially is no line between the Democratic Party and most elite media outlets.
Read the email HERE.
The Daily Caller summarizes it nicely:
Staff at The Boston Globe worked with Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign to maximize her “presence” during her primary race against Sen. Bernie Sanders, new emails show.
The exchange is one of thousands from the inbox of Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta leaked by the online hacktivist group WikiLeaks over the past week.
Marjorie Pritchard, the Globe’s op-ed editor, contacted Podesta wondering if the Clinton campaign was still set to submit an op-ed. But then, Pritchard went above and beyond and offered tips about how the campaign could extract maximum benefit from the piece by coordinating its publication to match the Globe’s regular reporting.
“It would be good to get it in on Tuesday, when she is in New Hampshire,” Pritchard says. “That would give her a big presence on Tuesday with the piece and on Wednesday with the news story. Please let me know.”

Hacked Hillary Email: We conspire to produce an unaware and compliant citizenry…
Thanks to WikiLeaks and the carelessness that Hillary and her crew have misused email we have a great understanding of the corruption, pay to play deals and general contempt the Democrat leadership has for the American people. Their actions are right out of the Saul Alinsky playbook.
Bill Ivey to Hillary for President Campaign Chairman John Podesta – LINK:
And as I’ve mentioned, we’ve all been quite content to demean government, drop civics and in general conspire to produce an unaware and compliant citizenry. The unawareness remains strong but compliance is obviously fading rapidly. This problem demands some serious, serious thinking – and not just poll driven, demographically-inspired messaging.

Hacked Clinton emails name more reporters willing to do campaign bidding
First this. Clinton hacked emails show Politico & NYT reporters doing campaign bidding
Planting stories and the whole gambit of media corruption seems a regular occurrence.
Another document in the leak, titled “Earned Media/Next Steps,” describes the Clinton campaign’s strategy for placing stories. The January 2015 memo states, “We are all in agreement that the time is right place a story with a friendly journalist in the coming days that positions us a little more transparently while achieving the above goals.” The Intercept reports that according to the document’s metadata it was created by traveling Clinton campaign press secretary Nick Merrill.
The memo continues on to say: “We have has a very good relationship with Maggie Haberman of Politico over the last year. We have had her tee up stories for us before and have never been disappointed. While we should have a larger conversation in the near future about a broader strategy for reengaging the beat press that covers HRC, for this we think we can achieve our objective and do the most shaping by going to Maggie.”
It later describes their strategy for a “sanctioned story.” “First, a list of names that we agree upon beforehand that we will give to a reporter on background, both policy people and campaign people. Second, some information provided on background that explains what is happening and why and third, a quote on-the-record that affirms all of this in an official capacity, making clear that this is a sanctioned story,” the memo states.
The List:
“Moderator’s” vs Donald Trump at Second Debate
This is CNN….
CNN Caught Coaching Post-Debate Focus Group (video)
The “journalist” was caught coaching the focus group on camera…
This is not unusual for CNN. After all this is the network who said on the air that they are doing all they can do to get Hillary elected:
CNN also…and this is just the tip of the iceberg:
1 – Rigged a 2007 presidential town-hall style debate. How? Each “undecided voter” they picked from the audience to pose questions to Republicans ended up being a known Democrat campaign operative who had been on CNN before.
2 – The network asked Democrat campaign operatives in 2008 how the network should respond to “republican attacks” referring to the Democrats as “We”.
3 – Ran propaganda puff pieces for Saddam Hussien.
4 – Falsely added the word “racial” to Trump talking about Israeli profiling methods.
5 – Published misleading headlines and spin to protect Obama over the massive job losses.
6 – Blamed mass shooters who ended up being far left extremists, such as the New York museum shooter, on the TEA Party.
7 – CNN treats real violent left wing protesters as peaceful and peaceful TEA Party activists as violent (2).
8 – On CNN arch leftists are presented as “moderate Democrats” no matter how radical they are and yet Republicans are presented as “right wing”.
9 – The network that actually issued a “content advisory” before playing a part of the National Anthem.

Hillary Clinton: You Need to Have a Private and Public Position on Policy…
Hillary Clinton e-mails via WikiLeaks
Clinton: “But If Everybody’s Watching, You Know, All Of The Back Room Discussions And The Deals, You Know, Then People Get A Little Nervous, To Say The Least. So, You Need Both A Public And A Private Position.”*
Clinton Said That The Blame Placed On The United States Banking System For The Crisis “Could Have Been Avoided In Terms Of Both Misunderstanding And Really Politicizing What Happened.”
Clinton: “Even If It May Not Be 100 Percent True, If The Perception Is That Somehow The Game Is Rigged, That Should Be A Problem For All Of Us.”
Clinton Said That Because Candidates Needed Money From Wall Street To Run For Office, People In New York Needed To Ask Tough Questions About The Economy Before Handing Over Campaign Contributions.
This one is epic in light of how she mishandled classified docs and emails:
Clinton: “At The State Department We Were Attacked Every Hour, More Than Once An Hour By Incoming Efforts To Penetrate Everything We Had. And That Was True Across The U.S. Government.”
Hillary Clinton: “When I Got To The State Department, It Was Still Against The Rules To Let Most — Or Let All Foreign Service Officers Have Access To A Blackberry.”
Tax Dodging is Wrong, Legal Tax Avoidance is the American Way
Unless of course you are a company like GE who has the connections to get special exemptions for themselves in the tax code.
That exception aside, no one should pay more than the law says that they should, or as my teenage daughter might say “no duhhh”. There is nothing wrong with taking deductions that are written into the law.
As so many have heard, Donald Trump’s 1995 Tax Returns were illegally leaked and it shows that he paid very little tax that year because he was recovering from recent losses, which are deductible. Hillary Clinton and even the New York Times used those same deductions in their own taxes.
Breitbart News:
Hillary Clinton used the same exact method as Donald Trump to pay less tax, according to her own tax returns released by her presidential campaign.
Donald Trump reportedly avoided paying federal income taxes by reporting massive losses on his 1995 tax return, which the New York Times somehow obtained before Trump himself released it.
The Wall Street Journal describes the loophole that Trump used:
The tax treatment of losses, bound to become a subject of national debate, is a typically noncontroversial feature of the income-tax system. The government doesn’t pay net refunds when business owners lose money, but it lets taxpayers use those losses to smooth their tax payments as they make money. That reflects the fact that “the natural business cycle of a taxpayer may exceed 12 months,” according to a congressional report.
Typically, for federal returns, such net operating losses can be carried backward for two years to offset past income and then kept on a taxpayer’s books for 20 years, though Mr. Trump’s losses could only qualify for a 15-year carryforward under the law at the time.
The Clinton campaign has hammered Trump on his unreleased tax returns. When pundits on cable news now refer to the “Taxes” issue, they’re usually talking about Trump’s personal “taxes” issue, not the taxes paid by American voters.
But the Zerohedge blog first noticed something that could undercut Clinton’s ability to hit Trump on his “net operating losses.”
Clinton’s 2015 tax returns reveal that Hillary Clinton also reported capital gains losses in order to lessen her tax burden through a “carryover.”
Page 17 of the tax returns show “Capital Gains and Losses” for “WILLIAM J CLINTON & HILLARY RODHAM CLINTON.”
The Clintons reported a “Long-term capital loss carryover” of $699,540.
Thus, the Clintons reported a “Net long-term capital gain or (loss)” of “-699,540.”
Limbaugh: Journalism Has Adopted a Special Kind of Stupid to Be This Acquiescent to the State
Every once in a while Rush Limbaugh has a monologue that is something really special and this, while a long read, is one of the best explanations of what is wrong with journalism that one may ever see. It is worth your time.
(Full Disclosure – This writer has been quoted in a Rush Limbaugh Biography)
Have you ever noticed, ladies and gentlemen, how the… You know, I call them the left, the liberals, the Democrats, whatever. Have you ever noticed how they claim they love Mother Nature? They just love it! They don’t like humanity much because humanity destroys Mother Nature. But they love Mother Nature. But then when Mother Nature does something nasty, like give us a drought or give us a hurricane, it’s not Mother Nature’s fault. No! It’s our fault….
