Liberal AP does an expose' on Hillary...

Many donors to Clinton Foundation met with her at State
Aug 24,`16 WASHINGTON (AP) -- More than half the people outside the government who met with Hillary Clinton while she was secretary of state gave money - either personally or through companies or groups - to the Clinton Foundation. It's an extraordinary proportion indicating her possible ethics challenges if elected president.

At least 85 of 154 people from private interests who met or had phone conversations scheduled with Clinton while she led the State Department donated to her family charity or pledged commitments to its international programs, according to a review of State Department calendars released so far to The Associated Press. Combined, the 85 donors contributed as much as $156 million. At least 40 donated more than $100,000 each, and 20 gave more than $1 million. Among those granted time with Clinton included an internationally known economist who asked for her help as the Bangladesh government pressured him to resign from a nonprofit bank he ran; a Wall Street executive who sought Clinton's help with a visa problem; and Estee Lauder executives who were listed as meeting with Clinton while her department worked with the firm's corporate charity to counter gender-based violence in South Africa.

The meetings between the Democratic presidential nominee and foundation donors do not appear to violate legal agreements Clinton and former president Bill Clinton signed before she joined the State Department in 2009. But the frequency of the overlaps shows the intermingling of access and donations, and fuels perceptions that giving the foundation money was a price of admission for face time with Clinton. Her calendars and emails released as recently as this week describe scores of contacts she and her top aides had with foundation donors. The AP's findings represent the first systematic effort to calculate the scope of the intersecting interests of Clinton Foundation donors and people who met personally with Clinton or spoke to her by phone about their needs. The 154 did not include U.S. federal employees or foreign government representatives. Clinton met with representatives of at least 16 foreign governments that donated as much as $170 million to the Clinton charity, but they were not included in AP's calculations because such meetings would presumably have been part of her diplomatic duties.

Clinton's campaign said the AP analysis was flawed because it did not include in its calculations meetings with foreign diplomats or U.S. government officials, and the meetings AP examined covered only the first half of Clinton's tenure as secretary of state. AP has sought for years a complete set of Clinton's detailed schedules covering her time in office, which she could have voluntarily released but did not. The AP sued the State Department in federal court to obtain the schedules it has received so far. "It is outrageous to misrepresent Secretary Clinton's basis for meeting with these individuals," spokesman Brian Fallon said. He called it "a distorted portrayal of how often she crossed paths with individuals connected to charitable donations to the Clinton Foundation."

Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump fiercely criticized the links between the Clinton Foundation and the State Department, saying his general election opponent had delivered "lie after lie after lie." "Hillary Clinton is totally unfit to hold public office," he said at a rally Tuesday night in Austin, Texas. "It is impossible to figure out where the Clinton Foundation ends and the State Department begins. It is now abundantly clear that the Clintons set up a business to profit from public office." On Wednesday, Clinton campaign manager Robby Mook defended the Democratic nominee on MSNBC's "Morning Joe" and questioned Trump's own dealings. "We need to look more closely at Donald Trump," Mook said. Last week, the Clinton Foundation moved to head off ethics concerns about future donations by announcing changes planned if Clinton is elected.

US Army names Hillary Clinton as ‘insider threat’ during OPSEC training
Thursday 25th August, 2016 - The United States Army has confirmed that Hillary Clinton was used as an example of an 'insider threat' to operational security (OPSEC) during a training class.

The photo of the former Secretary of State and Democratic presidential candidate appeared on training slide titled: 'Who is the Threat?'. A soldier at Fort Leonard Wood in Missouri leaked a snap of the slide to a Facebook page called 'US Army WTF! Moments'. The Clinton photo has since been removed from the slide.

The lineup included David Petraeus, Nidal Hassan, Aaron Alexis and whistleblowers Edward Snowden and Chelsea Manning. Army psychiatrist Nidal Hassan shot 13 people dead and injured 30 others during a mass shooting at Fort Hood, Texas. Former CIA director and four star general David Petraeus shared classified material with a mistress. Earlier this year FBI Director James Comey said Clinton's handling of classified materials had been "extremely careless".

An Army spokesperson said: "As is common with Army training requirements, the local unit was given latitude to develop their own training products to accomplish the overall training objective. "This particular presentation had not been reviewed or approved by the unit's leadership, and does not reflect the position of the Army. The training presentation has since been removed."
