Clinton and Julison, apropos on so many levels….

“riding dirty”

SOUTH CAROLINA – Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton phoned Walter Scott’s family Wednesday, offering them her condolences following his death in a police shooting earlier this year.

Clinton called his mother, Judy Scott, while campaigning in South Carolina, according to CNN.

Ryan Julison, a spokesman for the Scott family’s legal representation, said Clinton promised his surviving loved ones that she was “going to work to make sure this doesn’t happen to another family,” it said.

“She told Mrs. Scott that she was very sorry for her family having to go through this,” Julison said of the five-minute phone call, the publication reported.

“Mrs. Scott asked if it was possible for them to meet, to which Secretary Clinton said they would try to make that happen next time she was in the area,” Julison said, according to CNN. (more…)

(Via Daily Mail) Hillary Clinton reportedly charged a Boys and Girls Club chapter $200,000 for an appearance, then left the premise without saying hello to children who benefit from the program.

The massive fee, which she donated back to her family foundation, was the largest the Long Beach, California, organization had ever paid a public figure for a speech, Politico reports.

By contrast, the club made $106,000 off the lunchtime, charity event – it’s lowest yield in 25 years. A contributing factor to the diminished proceeds: Clinton’s large entourage that took up seats that would have otherwise been sold to donors.

The details of the 2014 closed-press event were published in a Politico report today that cites a volunteer with the group as the source of the unflattering information. (more…)

Blumenthal claims he copied communication from a former CIA analyst and despite being paid $10,000/month from the Clinton Foundation he claims he was not paid to advise Secretary Clinton.

WASHINGTON DC – Sidney Blumenthal did not write or know the source of any of the Libya intelligence he passed on to then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, the top Clinton ally told investigators on the House Select Committee on Benghazi Tuesday in a closed-door deposition.

Blumenthal, subpoenaed by the committee, also did not verify any of the intelligence he forwarded to the nation’s top diplomat. Instead, Blumenthal was copying and pasting memos from Tyler Drumheller, a former CIA operative who was looking into a Libya-related business venture, and sending them to Clinton, two people familiar with his testimony told POLITICO. (more…)

Snippets coming out as the MSM tries to pretend Blumenthal’s testimony is not potentially VERY damaging to Hillary Clinton.  Apparently, from early reports, Hillary’s assertion that Blumenthal’s communication was “unsolicited” is being exposed as false.  Even Darrell Issa tried to sit and listen….

WASHINGTON DC – Former House Oversight Chairman Darrell Issa (R-Calif.) tried to crash former Hillary Clinton adviser Sidney Blumenthal’s deposition before the House Select Committee on Benghazi on Tuesday.

Issa marched into the closed-door deposition and remained inside for about a minute before he was escorted out by the panel’s chairman, Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-S.C.). The pair briefly exchanged hushed words in a nearby hallway before Issa stormed off, throwing an empty soda can into a nearby trash bin.

Gowdy returned to the private session. “Sorry about that,” he said as he went back into the interview (link)

House Dems are seeking to provide quick leak cover prior to Blumenthal’s scheduled testimony before Gowdy Select Committee on Benghazi TOMORROW – so they quickly dispatch ideological compatriots in arms at Politico.

Spin machines feverously burning the midnight oil:

(Via Politico) House GOP Benghazi investigators have discovered additional Libya communications between Sidney Blumenthal and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, a congressional source told POLITICO — suggesting that either the State Department or the 2016 Democratic presidential contender withheld correspondence the panel had subpoenaed.

Blumenthal — a longtime Clinton family friend who is set to testify before the committee behind closed doors Tuesday morning — recently gave the House Select Committee on Benghazi his Libya-related emails after the panel had quietly subpoenaed them. (more…)

(Via Washington Free Beacon) A little-known private foundation controlled by Bill and Hillary Clinton donated $100,000 to the New York Times’ charitable fund in 2008, the same year the newspaper’s editorial page endorsed Clinton in the Democratic presidential primary, according to tax documents reviewed by the Washington Free Beacon.
The Clinton Family Foundation, a separate entity from the Bill, Hillary and Chelsea Clinton Foundation, has been the family’s vehicle for personal charitable giving since 2001.
It is funded directly by the Clintons and distributes more than $1 million a year to civic and educational causes.
The New York Times Neediest Cases Fund is a charity affiliated with the newspaper that assists underprivileged New Yorkers. It is run by members of the New York Times Company’s board of directors and senior executives.  (read more)

The desperation of the New York Times is ridiculous.  The Washington Free Beacon has essentially busted the New York Times for using Hillary Clinton opposition research to frame a ridiculous story about Marco Rubio getting four driving tickets in the past two decades.
The Times attempts to bolster the source of their information by denying the allegations of source origination to Politico Magazine.  However, the denial of the New York Times is provably false.
All of this NYT effort to highlight what exactly?  That Marco Rubio has had, and paid, traffic tickets.  Seriously?
Meanwhile Candidate Clinton has admitted she doesn’t drive and has been driven around by chauffers’ for so long she doesn’t even know if she could drive.

“The last time I actually drove a car myself was 1996,” the 66-year-old Clinton told the audience. “And I remember it very well, and so does the Secret Service, which is why I haven’t driven since then.”  (link)

There’s an opportunity for a campaign commercial here that could very well highlight Rubio’s advantage and optimistic views, while simultaneously spotlighting the old and out of touch limo-liberalism reflected by Hillary Clinton.

Sure would have been nice for those National Archives leaders to have expressed their concerns publically while she was still in office…

WASHINGTON DC – Over a five-year span, senior officials at the National Archives and Records Administrations (NARA) voiced growing alarm about Hillary Clinton’s record-keeping practices as secretary of state, according to internal documents obtained by Fox News.
During Clinton’s final days in office, Paul Wester, the director of Modern Records Programs at NARA – essentially the agency’s chief records custodian – privately emailed five NARA colleagues to confide his fear that Clinton would take her official records with her when she left office, in violation of federal statutes.

WE NEED YOUR HELP – The mainstream media on both sides of the issue, but mostly on our side, are missing a key point when analyzing the latest release of Hillary Clinton e-mails and the topic of Libya in 2011.  We have exhaustively researched and presented a sourced and cited timeline for the Libyan folly throughout 2011 and 2012 – All covered in the Benghazi Brief.

Everyone is missing the late February 2011 Presidential Finding Memo, , signed by President Obama which authorized the covert CIA/State Department operation.

[…]  The Libyan uprising began on February 10th of 2011, and we also know that sometime around the end of February 2011 President Obama signed a presidential directive authorizing the State Dept and CIA to begin a covert operation to arm the Libyan “rebels”.

Everyone is also missing – as a result of that directive the Intelligence Gang of Eight, which included Mike Rogers, was informed of the CIA/State Dept. goal. (more…)

(Via Politico) A federal judge issued an order Wednesday requiring the State Department to make public batches of former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s emails every 30 days starting next month.
U.S. District Court Judge Rudolph Contreras also set particular targets for the agency to meet each month as it wades through the roughly 30,000 emails totaling about 55,000 pages:
