Throughout the Democratic primary, Hillary Clinton’s campaign presented her as a crusading reformer who would take on powerful corporate interests and curb the role of big money in American politics.
But the recent WikiLeaks dump of campaign chairman John Podesta’s emails offers revealing snapshots that tell a somewhat different story. Top aides plot to “scare our people into giving bigger sums.” They debate whether to take cash from registered foreign agents: “Take the money!!” one senior campaign official advises. A top corporate lobbyist, pressed to “hit up” his clients for Clinton campaign coffers, asks for high-level help to advance one of those client’s interests. And there are new details about the overseas cash that rolled into the Clinton Foundation — including a $12 million commitment from the king of Morocco that Hillary Clinton personally helped facilitate.
The emails also disclose just how nervous top Clinton advisers were that Vice President Joe Biden might get into the race (Podesta himself was convinced he was getting in.) And they fretted about their own candidate’s limitations. “Almost no one knows better [than] me that her instincts can be terrible,” wrote one longtime Clinton aide.
And so now they are trying to shut down Assange. The NYDN is silent on this issue. Freedom of speech is dead with HRC and the DNC. The left here is like the left in 1930s Germany - the Socialist Workers. Nice people. Hopefully soon we'll be hearing from this friend of David who wants to out his experiences in neonazi groups that he infiltrated along with Iranian Holocaust deniers. All have ties to Clinton. But even former military men like Sgt Joe Humire who knows about Iran in Bolivia - he was born in Bolivia - are blocked by Clinton who has a deal to allow Iran to dig up uranium in South American and secretly enrich it. And her people knew about secret plans to aggravate Argentina against the UK to profit.
