The first casualty of Hillary Clinton's server

August 9, 2016
There are consequences to compromising national security

washingtontimes.com


Exactly how damaging the classified information is that was discovered on Hillary Clinton’s server became clear this weekend when the Iranian government executed an alleged spy. He had been mentioned in at least one email from an aide to Hillary, which called him “our friend.”

The deceased Iranian was the nuclear scientist Shahram Amiri, who was executed for allegedly passing on information to the United States. Amiri had been in and out of the news since 2009 when he first defected, eventually turning up on our shores. After a series of contradictory appearances on YouTube and other videos in which he repeatedly changed his mind about residence in America, he returned home to be with his family. Then in 2010 he disappeared, presumably was put under arrest, and ultimately, according to an Iranian government spokesman, Gholam-Hossein Mohseni-Ejei, “was hanged [this past Sunday] for revealing the country’s top secrets to the enemy.” That would be the United States, the West’s preeminent force in agreeing to President Obama’s reckless nuclear deal with Iran. The Iranian government calls us “the enemy.”

I have long argued that Hillary Clinton is incompetent and sometimes dangerous to those around her. If elected president she will be a danger to the country. Our president claims, “There has never been any man or woman more qualified for this office than Hillary Clinton.” This is sheerest pishposh. His qualification for office was being a community activist. ...

LYING POS trump is a CON MAN LOSER: Trump Approval Rating Plunges Amid Violence as Midterms Approach
By BLOOMBERG
October 29, 2018

President Donald Trump’s job approval rating plunged 4 percentage points last week amid a wave of violence, the latest troubling signal for Republican chances in upcoming midterm elections.

Forty percent of Americans approved of Trump’s performance as commander in chief, according to Gallup polling during the week ending Oct. 28. That was down from 44% the prior week, an unusually steep decline for the poll, which is based on a survey of 1,500 U.S. adults conducted Monday through Sunday each week.

Some of the polling was done before the attacks. The drop was the sharpest since June 24—when Trump’s weekly job approval declined to 41% from 45% the previous week—amid controversy over his administration’s policy of separating families apprehended illegally crossing the U.S. border with Mexico.

A series of mail bombs to prominent Trump critics and a deadly attack at a Pennsylvania synagogue have stirred criticism of the president’s polarizing rhetoric, especially as the November midterm elections approach. Trump has in turn blamed the news media for fomenting public anger and on Monday revived his characterization of the press as the “Enemy of the People.”

“The Fake News Media, the true Enemy of the People, must stop the open & obvious hostility & report the news accurately & fairly,” Trump said in tweet.

An attack at the Tree of Life synagogue in Pittsburgh during Saturday services left 11 people dead, many of them elderly, in what’s being investigated as a hate crime by a suspect who allegedly posted on social media blaming a Jewish nonprofit that helps resettle refugees for bringing “invaders in that kill our people.”

Trump and his wife will travel to Pennsylvania on Tuesday to visit with families of victims, White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders said.

On Friday, a Florida man known to have attended Trump campaign events was charged in connection with mailing at least 13 suspected explosive devices that targeted high-profile Democrats, including former President Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton. Two packages were addressed to former U.S. intelligence officials John O. Brennan and James Clapper at the New York headquarters of CNN, for which Clapper is now an analyst.

Trump has held a series of rallies for Republican House and Senate candidates across the country in recent weeks. White House officials, however, are largely resigned to losing Republican control of the House, and the mood around the president has darkened as many challengers continue to out-raise seasoned Republican incumbents, and Democratic enthusiasm surpasses that of the GOP.

I tell the truth ‘when I can’
By Mark Moore

President Trump said he tells the truth “when I can.”

“Well, I try. I do try … and I always want to tell the truth. When I can, I tell the truth,” he told ABC Newsin an interview released Wednesday. “And sometimes it turns out to be where something happens that’s different or there’s a change, but Ialways like to be truthful.”

The president was asked about his comments that the US is the only country that grants birthright citizenship, despite the fact that 30 countries, including Canada and Mexico, do the same.

“That’s what I was told,” Trump said.

In the interview after a campaign rally Wednesday evening in Florida, Trump also suggested that the US military may play a wider role on the US border than just assisting National Guard members and other federal officials – even though they are not allowed to make arrests.

“Well it depends, it depends,” Trump said, noting that circumstances surrounding the caravan of Central American migrants heading to the US could change.

“National emergency covers a lot of territory. They can’t invade our country. You look at that it almost looks like an invasion. It’s almost does look like an invasion,” Trump said.

The president said he plans on boosting the number of active-duty troops on the border to as many as 15,000 – a force that would be roughly equivalent to the US deployment in Afghanistan.

Questioned about describing the caravan of migrants fleeing poverty and crime in Honduras and El Salvador, he said, “I think so.”

“When you look at some of them, when you look at some of the people in them, yeah, I think it can be considered an invasion. We can’t have it,” he said.

According to the Washington Post, Trump has made more than 5,000 false or misleading claims since he entered the White House in January 2017.

And in the run-up to next Tuesday’s midterm elections, he has been called out for saying that Democratic donor George Soros has been bankrolling the migrant caravan, even though there’s no evidence to support that claim.

At the White House last month, he promised that there was going to be a 10 percent tax reduction for middle-class Americans, which would require a vote in Congress.

But the House and Senate are out until after Nov. 6’s election.

And during the interview with ABC, Trump once again said Democrats will remove health coverage for pre-existing conditions – even though his administration has sued to end those protections.

“I want to replace pre-existing conditions and I’ve always been there. What the Democrats are going to do is destroy our entire health care and you’re not going to have any health care. You would destroy the country. You are not going to have health care,” Trump said in the interview. “The Democrats are going to literally – you’ll have to pay three times the taxes and they’ll destroy health care as we know it in this country. You won’t have pre-existing conditions. You wont have anything.”
