-Lurid Crime Tales-
Clinton emails contained spy satellite data on North Korean nukes
.[Wash Times] One of the most serious potential breaches of national security identified so far by the intelligence community inside Hillary Rodham Clinton's private emails involves the relaying of classified information concerning the movement of North Korean nuclear assets, which was obtained from spy satellites.
Wonder what Sid Blumenthal's vig was...
Multiple intelligence sources who spoke to The Washington Times, solely on the condition of anonymity, said concerns about the movement of the North Korean information through Mrs. Clinton's unsecured server are twofold.

First, spy satellite information is frequently classified at the top-secret level and handled within a special compartment called Talent-Keyhole. This means it is one of the most sensitive forms of intelligence gathered by the U.S.

#1  That the Hildabeest pretends that she didn't know that satellite imagery of NorK Nuke sites wasn't classified beggars the imagination. Secondly, as a major consumer of classified materials of all levels, she was the ORIGINATOR of many classified communications as a natural part of her job as the presumed senior foreign policy officer of the US government. When she wrote them she HAD to have known she was writing classified communications, or she is the dumbest jackass ever to be in government. Either position is a disqualifier for President. SO, is she an idiot or a criminal, those are the only two options!

Hacker Threatens To Sell Hillary Clinton's Entire Unreleased Private Emails For $500k
[RADARONLINE] Just as email-gate looked to be winding down, RadarOnline.com has exclusively learned a person claiming to be a computer specialist has come forward with the stunning news that 32,000 emails from Hillary Clinton
... sometimes described as For a good time at 3 a.m. call Hillary and at other times as Mrs. Bill, never as Another Edward Stettinius, Jr. ...
's private email account are up for sale. The price tag -- a whopping $500,000!

Promising to give the trove of the former Secretary of State's emails to the highest bidder, the specialist is showing subject lines as proof of what appear to be legitimate messages.
A 'talking head' on Fox this evening reported that an "unnamed U.S. Gov't agency" had been offered the emails for $500,000. a while back, but had turned the offer down." Sort of makes sense actually. Why buy someone else's copies of something you already own ?
Hat tip to Vast Right Wing Conspiracy:
Hacker Removes Hillary’s UNRELEASED Emails From Sale, Turns Over To FBI

[RadarOnline] The person who hacked into Hillary Clinton
... sometimes described as The Heroine of Tuzla and at other times as Mrs. Bill, never as Another Charles Evans Hughes ...
's email server has pulled the emails off the block and turned them over to the FBI, RadarOnline.com has exclusively learned.
The FBI can be very persuasive...
"After speaking with my lawyers" the hacker told Radar exclusively, "I was advised I could not legally sell these, and to get rid of them and turn in everything I had to FBI."
When did it occur to him that he couldn't sell the emails -- three seconds after the FBI called his lawyer?

#1  Had he released one, maybe we would believe it.

Could have called Trey Goudy

#2  Just the first of many blackmail attempts by people who either a) have incriminating emails or b) created them on the spot. At this point, who can say which are real and which are fake?

There will even be a website - Hillary's Email of the Day. Hillarity (heh) ensues.

#7  Don't worry. Price will come down as more sellers enter the market.

#8  Interesting that hackers have classified emails (that US does not have) from a US Sec of State but some how no laws have been broken by the Sec of State.

Home Front: Politix
The Clinton/Obama Political Death Match
[PJMedia] Poor Hillary Clinton can't seem to catch a break.

It's been over six months since the nation first heard about the former secretary of State's unusual email arrangement, but unlike Obama's various and sundry scandals, her email scandal refuses to go away.

Six months is a long time in the life of an Obama scandal. It only took two months, for instance, for the IRS scandal to morph from "an outrage" that is "inexcusable" to a "phony scandal" trumped up by Republicans trying to score "political points." The MSM let that happen. They know how to drop a story when it's inconvenient, but they hang on like a dog on a bone if it helps further a leftist agenda.

What is the agenda here?

Every day brings new revelations about Clinton's malfeasance.

...They are in a political death match, for their own futures, and the future of the party, the Obama revolution and the country. It won't end until one side is destroyed.
We know who, or rather what, is sure to be destroyed in the process

#5  Hopefully we will look back at the Obama years as the cancer years. The US was almost allowed to die in order to finally kill/discredit the Marxist idiocy that has done so much damage to the country. Hopefully the patient will have enough strength to get back to normal once the cancer is gone in 2016.

#6  Hopefully we will look back at the Obama years as the cancer years.

The cancer isn't going to cut itself out. It is going to have to be done, and you can be sure that the cancerous elements are going to resist their removal. Time is running out, it may be too late already. The metastasizing of the cancer began decades ago, I fear the cure will also be the death. I'm on the verge of saying the Republic is dead.

#7  Hopefully we will look back at the Obama years as the cancer years.

Not HIV years?

#8  Well the patient has two slightly different forms of cancer and the two are battling it out right now while the patient (hopefully) is starting to recognize the cancer for what it is.

#9  The Campaign for POTUS 2017 doesn't begin until January 2016 - PLENTY OF TIME YET FOR ALL SIDES.

How far the US is willing to tolerate POTUS Obama's "red lines" depends on how far the Bammer + aligned OWG Globies desire the "weak/declining" US to unilaterally = self-retreat across the World.

Espec out here in East Asia-Pacific aka Guam-WESTPAC where the presently facadial or superficially, post-911 Pert, MSM-Net affirmed "weak/declining" US for US-led Anti-US OWG-NWO may yet devol into a DE FACTO
"WEAK/DECLINING" USA WHOSE ONLY FUTURE IS DEFEAT + SUBORNMENT TO FOREIGN POWERS.

Iff the Globies miscalculate, the only SOCIALISM-GOVTISM they will have imposed on the US-World will be THEO-SOCIALISM = RADICAL ISLAM + GLOBAL CALIPHATE, NOT ANY WESTERN-STYLE SECULAR DEMO/LIBERAL SOCIALISM OR EURO-SOCIALISM.

Imposed their Enemy's brand of Socialism, NOT thier own or the kind they wanted.

* CHARLES KRAUTHAMMER [paraph] = "SAY IT WID ME, AMERIKA, OOOOOOOOOPPPPPPPPSSSSIES"!

An "OOOOPPPS" the US = Non-Muslim World may NEVER RECOVER from.

India-Pakistan
Mahatma Gandhi & black people
h/t Gates of Vienna
A controversial new book by two South African university professors reveals shocking details about Gandhi's life in South Africa between 1893 and 1914, before he returned to India.

During his stay in South Africa, Gandhi routinely expressed "disdain for Africans," says S. Anand, founder of Navayana, the publisher of the book titled "The South African Gandhi: Stretcher-Bearer of Empire."

According to the book, Gandhi described black Africans as "savage," "raw" and living a life of "indolence and nakedness," and he campaigned relentlessly to prove to the British rulers that the Indian community in South Africa was superior to native black Africans. The book combs through Gandhi's own writings during the period and government archives and paints a portrait that is at variance with how the world regards him today.

#1  In dhoti and bare feet, austere,
The sacred cow drops its veneer:
"Okay! I'd do violence,
But only to silence
The mooing of Richard Grenier!"

#2  paints a portrait that is at variance with how the world regards him today.

The world, perhaps, but it is consistent with the man in his maturity.
