[Breitbart] Wednesday on Fox News Channel’s "The O’Reilly Factor," Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump downplayed the possibility of Democratic presidential front-runner Hillary Clinton’s White House hopes being spoiled by an indictment over transgressions stemming from her use of a private email server while secretary of state during President Barack Obama’s first term.
He did, however, tell host Bill O’Reilly he thought the emails would be fair game in a campaign situation for her opponents.
"I think the emails ‐ I don’t think that’s playing dirty pool," Trump said. "I think the emails are a big part of her life story right now. What she did is terrible and we’re going to see what happens."
But Trump said he did not foresee an indictment because he thought Democrats were protecting her.
"No, because I think the Democrat Party is going to protect her," he added. "I don’t think she is going to be indicted. I that what she has done is very, very serious. I know for a fact what Gen. [David] Petraeus and others have done is much less. And it destroyed their lives. So, I do believe, Bill, that she is being protected."
O’Reilly asked if it were possible the Democratic Party was working an "non-corruptible" agency like the FBI to prevent the indictment. Trump answered by saying there was a human element to this. But he added the danger for Clinton would be if another president’s administration looked at it within the six-year statute of limitations.
"I hope they are not working together," he replied. "You know, they are humans and they are people and they do talk, I would imagine. And I would like to think they don’t work together. But I would say that she is being protected. Now, what she can’t be protected from is the statute of limitations because on the assumption that somebody else got in ‐ that’s a real dangerous situation."
O’Reilly followed up by asking Trump if he would look at it if he were president, to which Trump acknowledged he "certainly" would. Yes, I suspect a Rudy Giuliani Justice Department would be most interested.
"Certainly this falls within that period of time," he added. "And you certainly have to look at it, very fairly. I would only do something if it was 100 percent fair. Certainly that is something that you would look at."
Excluding the SAP related stuff and some other TS related items, the majority of the Beest's violations involve 'confidential.' If you eliminate confidential, then down grade or DECLAS everything else, the problem goes away.
Has any other President of the United States discovered an interest in the classification system in his final day's in office ?
[PHILLY] The Clinton campaign and her ever-persistent supporters want you to know that the way the Clintons make their money -- just like the way they fund their campaign, with help from Super-PACS and large-scale fundraising from hedge-fund traders, fossil-fuel investors, and others who've been leadfooting the scales of income inequality -- is a big distraction from the "real issues" in the 2016 campaign. This year -- and every year -- the "real issue" should be corruption.
They note that even talking about this is only providing fall campaign fodder for Republicans who want your daughter to wear a chastity belt and your son to enlist for World War III. ... or in the War on Women®...
The defenders don't get it. In 2016, not just in our mashugana presidential race but all over the world, the nexus of politics and obscene amounts of money is no longer a sideshow that finances our endless culture wars or our class warfare. Money in politics is the show, and the average citizen, from Iowa to Iceland, is so sick of billionaires buying not just our elections but our politicians that they are rising up against this kleptocracy, a system of government based on stealing wealth from the middle classes.

The fact that this evil, race baiting predator might get one vote is simply unfathomable.

[Hilly] I'm on the side of the people, [ka-ching] the poor folks who are held down by the [ka-ching] Wall Street fat-cats [ding-ding-ding] and Trump is the worst example [ka-ching] of the Wall Street predators [ching-ching-ching], while I would never [ka-ching] allow my integrity [ah-OOO-gaa] to be compromised by $225,000 for a canned speech.

[DAILYSIGNAL] We just had a bleg on the Burg. Our hosting gets paid from reader contributions. We don't have any corporate sponsors. That's probably because we don't carry anybody's water.

I must be confused. It looks like they are advertising for kids to disrupt the Trunk convention in Cleveland. How's that going to 'change the world'?

I'm nominating these lads. I hope there are no age restrictions.
[PHILLY] The Pennsylvania Human Relations Commission, once a respected civil-rights agency, is on life support, according to current and former staffers. This is the local name for Equal Opportunity Commission, I'm guessing.
Morale and funding are down, cases are piling up, and allegations of racism and discrimination have been lobbed at Gerald S. Robinson, a Gov. Tom Corbett appointee who had continued to head the agency under Gov. Wolf.
Until Tuesday. Staffers were notified then that Wolf had abruptly removed Robinson as chairman.

Robinson would "say things that would make you cringe coming out of the mouth of the chair of a civil-rights agency," said a former commissioner staffer, referring to his philosophy that minorities need to simply pull themselves up by their bootstraps. "The way he puts that forth is in a really offensive way and discounts people's suffering."
And that's really offensive, coming from a well-to-do black dude. Clearly, they need to keep suffering under Democratic control!

[Free Beacon] Hillary Clinton penned a column praising Elizabeth Warren's strong-armed approach toward pursuing accountability among financial corporations as the Democratic presidential hopeful remains under fire for her numerous paid Wall Street speeches.
"Warren never lets us forget that the work of taming Wall Street's irresponsible risk taking and reforming our financial system Is far from finished," Clinton wrote in Time magazine's annual list of the "100 Most Influential People." "And she never hesitates to hold powerful people's feet to the fire: bankers, lobbyists, senior government officials and, yes, even presidential aspirants."
