Donna Brazile Plays Race Card With Bravura Against Clinton Campaign, Says She Considered Replacing Hillary With Biden

Former Democratic National Committee interim chair Donna Brazile has choice words for anyone upset for her Saturday revelation that she seriously considered overturning the popular primary vote and official Democratic party nomination of Hillary Clinton for president, based on the primary votes of Democrats. 

Brazile announced on ABC 'This Week' on Sunday that her critics can "go to hell." Drawing a comparison between herself and those telling Hillary Clinton to shut up and go quietly into the night -- in a book that seems to roast Hillary Clinton alive -- Brazile has dropped the gauntlet, telling her critics, "Go to hell. I'm going to tell my story."

Stupified over Brazile's claims that Hillary Clinton created an agreement with the Democratic National Committee that was a "cancer" on the party and claimed that it caused unequal treatment for Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt. during the primaries, Clintonites questioned Brazile's amnesia over a similar one she executed as campaign manager for Democratic presidential candidate Al Gore in 2000.

Mark Zuckerberg Apologizes For Ways in Which Facebook -- His Work -- Was Used To Divide People

Facebook chief executive mark Zuckerberg spent a thoughtful Yom Kippur, ending the holiest day of the year for Jewish people with an apology issued on his social media platform.

“For those I hurt this year, I ask forgiveness and I will try to be better,” he wrote in a brief post. “For the ways my work was used to divide people rather than bring us together, I ask for forgiveness and I will work to do better.”

Bipartisan Group Launches Committee To Investigate Russia, Led By Rob Reiner & Morgan Freeman

/

Hollywood types like Rob Reiner and Morgan Freeman are the faces of the new Committee To Investigate Russia website. But the group does go 'off script', says Think Progress, with an advisory board that includes  conservative commentator Charles Sykes and former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper.  Max Boot, senior fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations and Norman Ornstein, resident scholar at the American Enterprise Institute, are also advising. Apparently, no women are qualified to advise on such a critical issue for our country.

In an interview, Reiner said that they are hoping to be a “one-stop shop where people can come and be made aware pop what the breaking news stories are today, the various investigations, what stages they are in, but also to the understand the history, and what the Soviet Union and now Russia has been trying to do for many, many years.," writes Variety. Reiner also said that a goal is to understand “what cyberwarfare is all about.”

The Daily Beast: Russia-Backed Pro-Trump FB Groups Organized Rallies In Florida & PA

The Daily Beast: Russia-Backed Pro-Trump FB Groups Organized Rallies In Florida & PA

The Daily Beast just broke an exclusive story confirming that suspected propagandists used Facebook to organize at least a dozen pro-Trump rallies in Florida during the presidential election. 

The Aug. 20, 2016, events were collectively called “Florida Goes Trump!” and they were billed as a “patriotic state-wide flash mob,” unfolding simultaneously in 17 different cities and towns in the battleground state. It’s difficult to determine how many of those locations actually witnessed any turnout, in part because Facebook’s recent deletion of hundreds of Russian accounts hid much of the evidence. But videos and photos from two of the locations—Fort Lauderdale and Coral Springs—were reposted to a Facebook page run by the local Trump campaign chair, where they remain to this day.

You Are A Bonobo, Dear Hillary. Trump Is A Silverback With The Smallest Penis & Tiny Brain

You Are A Bonobo, Dear Hillary. Trump Is A Silverback With The Smallest Penis & Tiny Brain

The night Donald Trump literally stalked Hillary Clinton onstage made her skin crawl. This is just one revelation in an excerpt from her new book 'What Happened', written and narrated by the 2016 presidential candidate who experienced a stunning loss to Donald Trump. 

The second match-up between the two candidates was hyper-charged. The Oct. 10, 2016 debate took place days after the release of Trump's 'Access Hollywood' tape in which Trump bragged to host Billy Bush about grabbing women “by the pus*y.” The video threatened to derail Trump’s White House race as Republicans sought to distance themselves from their Republican standard-bearer. 

When it was over, Trump ally Nigel Farage screamed with glee like "he was like a silverback; he totally dominated her . . . the alpha males are back!!!"

DHS Issues Statement Debunking Trump Claim That Former AG Loretta Lynch Let Natalia Veselnitskaya Into US

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security on Thursday evening issued a statement contradicting President Trump’s claim that Loretta Lynch,President Obama’s attorney general, allowed the Russian lawyer who met with three Trump associates, including his son, into the United States. “In Sept. 2015, DHS paroled Natalia Veselnitskaya into the U.S. in concurrence with the U.S. Attorney’s Office, Southern District of New York, allowing her to participate in a client’s legal proceedings,” the DHS statement to BuzzFeed News read. “Ms. Veselnitskaya was subsequently paroled into the U.S. several times between 2015 and 2016, ending in February 2016. In June 2016, she was issued a B1/B2 nonimmigrant visa (a standard tourist visa) by the U.S. Department of State.”

Donna Brazile's Book 'Hacks' On Digital Breakins & Breakdowns Debuts On Anniversary Of Trump's Election

Brazile’s publisher Hachette promises a book that is “equal parts campaign thriller, memoir, and roadmap for the future.” The publisher did not say how much the book deal was worth.

Salivating Over Alleged Russian Dirt On Hillary, Donald Trump Jr. Emailed '" Love It."

Salivating Over Alleged Russian Dirt On Hillary, Donald Trump Jr. Emailed '" Love It."

"I love it," was Donald Trump Jr.'s response to news from Russian music publicist Rob Goldstone that the Russians had documents that would "incriminate Hillary and her dealings with Russia." The New York Times broke its report on the meeting that followed -- one that brought Donald Trump Jr., presidential adviser and son-in-law Jared Kushner and then campaign manager Paul Manafort into a 20-minute, largely unsatisfactory encounter with Kremlin-connected Russian lawyer Natalia Veselnitskaya. 

Goldstone represents Emin Agalarov, known professionally as Emin, one of Russia's biggest pop stars. His father is Aras Agalarov, a real estate magnate sometimes called the "Donald Trump of Russia." The father boasts close ties to President Vladimir V. Putin of Russia, having won several large state building contracts and being personally awarded by Putin the "Order of Honor of the Russian Federation."

Green Party's Jill Stein Says She'll Happily Testify About Her Support For Putin's Ideas

/

Politico writes that the Green Party candidate has no regrets, even as she's coming into the spotlight over questions about her own presence at Putin's Mike Flynn table at the RT dinner.

Congressional Dems want to talk to her as well, and given the insidious level of lies and treachery in the 2016 Congressional election -- and the Russians' co-opting Berners on social media -- we want to know why she was celebrating RT, owned by the Russian govt. Was she paid as Flynn was?

For the Congressional investigation to be valid, all stones must be unturned. That includes Stein and anyone else involved with the Russians, no matter what party.

Boys Club Lectures Sen. Kamala Harris As Intelligence Heads Refuse To Answer Questions

/

On Wednesday the leaders of America's intelligence agencies appeared before members of the Senate Intelligence Committee for a hearing about Russian interference into the 2016 presidential election and any possible collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia. 

It didn't go well, with the nation's top national intelligence leaders refusing to talk. They were not bound by any executive privilege claim by President Trump. Nor were they discussing classified information, which is not permitted in an open hearing. 

Several senators were visibly and audibly upset with the immobile faces refusing to even utter 'yes' or 'no' to the senate panel that oversees them.  New Mexico's Dem. Sen. Martin Heinrich was aggressive with all the silent men who refused to speak, making a notable criticism of Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein with the words "At this point, you filibuster better than most of my colleagues."

Emails Dominated Hillary News In Voters' Minds In Presidential Campaign Where Trump Totally Controlled Narrative

Emails Dominated Hillary News In Voters' Minds In Presidential Campaign Where Trump Totally Controlled Narrative

A very damaging 'email' alleging collusion between Hillary Clinton and the Justice Department with regard to the FBI investigation into Clinton's use of a private email server was known to be unreliable and possibly even fake in the summer of summer 2016. 

 The Washington Post says the intelligence document, which said then–Attorney General Loretta Lynch promised a campaign staffer that she’d go easy on Clinton, led Comey to “take the extraordinary step” of announcing the investigation’s findings without involving the Justice Department.

From the time of its initial receipt in March 2016, FBI agents debated its veracity. The document, which described an email from former DNC head Debbie Wasserman Schultz to Leonard Benardo of George Soros’s Open Society Foundations, said that Lynch told Clinton staffer Amanda Renteria that she would prevent the investigation from going too deep.

“The idea that Russians would tell a story in which the Clinton campaign, Soros and even an Obama administration official are connected — that Russians might tell such a story, that is not at all surprising,” said Matt Rojansky, a Russia expert and director of the Kennan Institute at the Wilson Center. “Because that is part of the Kremlin worldview.”

Why Hillary Didn't Carry White Women In The Presidential Election

/

We've been talking about the new PRRI/The Atlantic research on white working class voters who preferred Trump to Hillary 2 to 1. Much has been made of Hillary's failure to carry white women without a college degree. This research provides tons of answers, but one really sticks out to me:

Overall, white working-class Americans make up one-third (33%) of the adult public, a substantially larger share than white Americans with at least a four-year college education (22%).

58% of working class white men now express an authoritarian orientation, which is disconcerting to Democrats and progressives, Independents and true conservatives. But on the subject of Hillary Clinton not winning the white working class women's vote, 71% of those women prefer an authoritarian leader.

No one ever accused Hillary Clinton of being an authoritarian like Trump. I believe this stat about women in particular, because the most amazing research out of Baylor University in 2010 was done on America's Four Gods. Well over 150,000 people -- including many of us back then -- took the online survey, which had dramatic results around different visions of God.

The fourth vision of God -- one that I scored in believing -- is a non-gender spiritual energy force in the universe. Fully 25% of Americans embraced God #4, but get this -- it was 98% male who believe that God has no gender. American women believe that God is male -- except for Lisa and me, and a few other brave women with enlightened brains.

When I read the book and then took the online test, I said feminism is sunk in America if 98% of women believe that God is always watching them (more questions) and God is a he. ~ Anne

Beyonce, Jay-Z, Katy Perry, Pharrell Williams, Jennifer Lopez, Mark Anthony: Clinton Concerts Rock the Night

After a psychologically and emotionally back-breaking campaign, Hillary Clinton, Bill and Chelsea; Michelle and Barack Obama; and a large contingent of Democratic heavyweights will roll into Philadelphia's Independence Hall tonight to end Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign. 

Rockers Bruce Springsteen and Bon Jovi will headline the entertainment in a week that has brought out a long list of superstars, driving a wide array of supporting souls to the polls for Hillary. 

"With Independence Hall as the backdrop, Clinton will urge Pennsylvanians to make history on Tuesday by electing her president so she can continue pushing for the American ideals of progress, inclusion, equality and strength that our founders enshrined in our Constitution there in 1787," states a message on Hillary Clinton's website.

Beyonce & Jay Z Support Hillary At Friday Cleveland Free Concert

/

The price of Jay Z, Beyonce and Hillary's free ticket Friday night was voting. The pass to last night's screaming Cleveland arena performance was available only at the Bureau of Elections voting location. 

The crowd went wild when Beyonce took the stage wearing a wide brimmed black hat, while her dancers sported Hillary's traditional blue pantsuit. 

Then she ran through some of her most empowering hits, including ‘Independent Women’ to ‘Run the World (Girls)'.

Then she did a few songs with her husband – with Clinton’s ‘Stronger Together’ logo behind her.

‘Ohio we are on the doorstep of history,’ said Jay Z after the show. ‘I am here tonight because respect matters. Respect matters to me.’ 

Pharrell Williams Blasts the Sexism of Hillary Clinton's Dishonest Narrative

/

Hillary Clinton is joined by musician and hit music producer Pharrell Williams and former figure skater and surrogate outreach coordinator for the Clinton campaign Michelle Kwan departing from her campaign plane Thursday in North Carolina. 

In a strategy that many -- including AOC-- believe Clinton surrogates should have employed sooner, Pharrell addressed directly the questions around Clinton's honesty. Besides asking audience members exactly where and how Hillary was dishonest -- besides the small lies every politicians engage in -- Pharrell said the real problem was sexism. The mega talent has backed Hillary Clinton since March 2014, long before she publicly announced her candidacy. 

In addition to covering Hillary Clinton News in her own AOC Channel, our AOC Front Page is also committed to informing and featuring important news around next Tuesday's presidential election. 

Note that tonight, Hillary hooks up with Jay-Z in Cleveland for a free concert with tickets issued to those who have voted. 

JUST IN!!! Based on Actual Voting in Florida, Hillary Is Taking 28% of the Republican Vote

/

We are fired up and ready to go!!!

Clinton is winning 28% of Republican votes cast in Florida to date, based on surveys of votes already cast. Goddess bless us all!!! The REAL vote -- not the polls -- but the real votes cast in Florida so far are crossing over for Hillary. It's projected that Hillary Clinton has 53% of the actual votes cast in Florida so far. Barring a major catastrophe, Hillary Clinton is projected to win Florida by 8% on Tuesday.

You KNOW the Republican group is disproportionately Republican women.

NOW, the Senate vote is neck and neck in Florida. We MUST take the Senate because Republicans are already saying they will not confirm a Supreme Court candidate for four years.

We MUST take the Senate to protect the Supreme Court and advance the issues all the progressive Hillary haters claim to care about. Without the Senate, this will be a minor presidential victory.

This could be a wipeout. We are fired up and ready to go!!! It's time to fix America and it will be a broad-based coalition. That means not everyone will get everything on their list. If we protect the Senate, we have the Supreme Court. ~ Anne

Breaking News: FBI Never Asked For ALL Of Huma Abedin's Electronic Devices

/

Call me stupified. Politico is reporting that the FBI never asked Hillary Clinton's top aides to turn over all the computers, smartphones and electronic devices they used while Clinton was secretary of state. 

Understanding now that the FBI never asked Huma Abedin for all her devices -- and never asked the staff for every device used, as pounced on by Republicans, who were already sending Abedin to jail for violating legal documents she never signed -- FBI Director Comey's actions in making public the new claims against Huma Abedin were a total compromise in political ethics.

While the FBI made a concerted effort to obtain all the computers that were used as Clinton's private server and ultimately asked two of Clinton's lawyers for laptops used to review her email messages, investigators never requested or demanded all equipment her top staffers used for work purposes during her four years at State. 

"No one was asked for devices by the FBI," the source told Politico.
