FBI To Interview Hillary

From MEDIAite, “AJAM’s David Shuster Exclusive: Hillary Clinton to be Interviewed by FBI Director Comey in Coming Days“.

The FBI, led by Director James Comey, has now finished examining Clinton’s private emails and home server. And the sources add that Comey’s FBI team Nixon_Vs_Hillaryhas been joined by the Justice Department prosecutors. Together, they are now examining the evidence, analyzing relevant laws, and attempting to arrange interviews with key figures in the investigation.

Those interviews, according to attorneys, will include former State Department aides Philippe Reines, Former Clinton Chief of Staff Cheryl Mills, and Clinton herself.

Soon after those interviews — in the next few days and weeks — officials expect Director Comey to make his recommendation to Attorney General Loretta Lynch about potential criminal charges.

 

Time to Think of Iraq as a Business Opportunity

Did you think Donald Trump said that?  Not.  It was Hillary.  It’s funny how the Clintons show up when there’s money to be had.

IBT reports, “Campaign 2016: Hillary Clinton Pitched Iraq As ‘A Business Opportunity’ For US Corporations“.

When then-U.S. Sen. Hillary Clinton voted to authorize the war against Iraq in 2002, she justified her support of the invasion as a way to protect America’s national security. But less than a decade later, as secretary of state, Clinton Hillary_Iraq_A_Business_Opportunity_XTrumppromoted the war-torn country as a place where American corporations could make big money.

“It’s time for the United States to start thinking of Iraq as a business opportunity,” she said in a 2011 speech.

The quote was included in an email released by the State Department on Wednesday that specifically mentioned JPMorgan and Exxon Mobil. JPMorgan was selected by the U.S. government to run a key import-export bank in Iraq and in 2013 announced plans to expand its operations in the country. Exxon Mobil signed a deal to redevelop Iraqi oil fields. JPMorgan has collectively paid the Clintons and the Clinton Foundation at least $450,000 for speeches, and Exxon Mobil has donated over $1 million to the family’s foundation.

Don & Melania & Ted & Heidi

Or if you were around in 1969, “Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice“.

From Vox, “Heidi Cruz and Melania Trump: 6 stories to read about the women at the center of Wifegate“.

This week, the two leading Republican presidential candidates spiraled into a hypermasculine feud over each other’s wives.

Donald Trump responded to an attack ad in support of Ted Cruz that used a nude photo of Trump’s wife, Melania, with a vague threat to “spill the beans” about Cruz’s wife, Heidi.

The Facebook attack ad, targeted at Utah’s conservative Mormon base before Tuesday’s primary, was sponsored by Make America Awesome, a Super PAC supporting Cruz. It used a photo from a GQ spread with the caption, “Meet Melania Trump. Your Next First Lady. Or you could support Ted Cruz on Tuesday.”
