It was obvious early this morning that something was up.  There was a tremor amid the Dark Force as Team Clinton came out with an announcement that she would support a change to ObamaCare that would kill the Cadillac tax on union healthcare plans.

Obviously Hillary Clinton is trying to shore up support from various labor unions who are increasingly finding the Democrat positions at odds with middle America.
The decision by Hillary Clinton NOT TO support the Keystone Pipeline was a serious strike against her.  The decision to support the anti-American Trans-Pacific Trade deal was obviously additional blow.  In an effort to recover credibility Hillary Clinton is now stating she opposes the Cadillac Tax on union healthcare benefits.  However, it might be too little, too late.

When Chuck Todd questioned Hillary Clinton today about her pandering to the audience based on poll-tested political expediency, she remarked as follows:

An NBC/WSJ Poll was released today.  Within the article NBC is caught “red handed” manipulating the results to favor a preferred narrative.   The polled result is so blatantly opposite of the conclusions presented there can only be one reason, intentional bias.

Here is the way NBC presented the data on the Democrat side:

NBC […]  In the Democratic race, Hillary Clinton is the first choice of 42 percent of primary voters, Sanders is in second at 35 percent and Joe Biden third at 17 percent. No other Democrat gets more than 1 percent. 

When Biden – who is still mulling a campaign – is removed from the field, Clinton’s lead over Sanders grows to 15 points, 53 percent to 38 percent, which suggests that Biden’s entry would hurt Clinton more than Sanders. (link)

Do you spot the transparent lie? (more…)

There are a few different versions of various Clinton email scandals surfacing today within the Friday news dump. 

Here’s the first:
(Via Reuters) The U.S. Defense Department has found an email chain that Hillary Clinton did not give to the State Department, the State Department said on Friday, despite her saying she had provided all work emails from her time as secretary of state.
The correspondence with General David Petraeus, who was commander of U.S. Central Command at the time, started shortly before she entered office and continued during her first days as the top U.S. diplomat in January and February of 2009.
The Defense Department provided the emails to the State Department in “the last several days,” State Department spokesman John Kirby said in a statement. (more…)

We suspected, heck, anyone could see it was brutally obvious, that CNN was running cover to protect the optics of Bernie Sanders getting a same venue audience last weekend TEN TIMES greater than Hillary Clinton.

Both Clinton and Sanders held events two days apart -last weekend- at the campus of The University of New Hampshire.  Clinton had 300 attendees, Sanders had 3,000.

First thing Monday Morning (6am 9/21/15)  CNN blasts out a poll showing Clinton leading Sanders 42 to 24.

Clinton's lead in Democratic race grows, CNN/ORC poll shows. If Biden stays out of race, her numbers would rise more. http://t.co/3SO5rPyuG2

“Operation Hummingbird” is dependent upon the general Republican electorate/audience and media consumer being swayed by optics and manipulation as a strategy.  In essence full-throated “gaslighting“.
Cutting through that intent and getting to the substance of truth is really not too difficult, but you won’t find many outlets (new media or old) willing to go there.  However, as you are aware for us the Truth Has No Agenda, and Sunlight Is The Best Disinfectant.
We begin by watching this video of Carly Fiorina appearing on the Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon and the discussion of a Muslim candidate eligible as U.S. President:

This report specifically states the FBI has recovered “work-related” email from the server used by Hillary Clinton.

(Via Bloomberg)  The FBI has recovered personal and work-related e-mails from the private computer server used by Hillary Clinton during her time as secretary of state, according to a person familiar with the investigation.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation’s success at salvaging personal e-mails that Clinton said had been deleted raises the possibility that the Democratic presidential candidate’s correspondence eventually could become public. The disclosure of such e-mails would likely fan the controversy over Clinton’s use of a private e-mail system for official business.
The FBI is investigating how and why classified information ended up on Clinton’s server. The probe probably will take at least several more months, according to the person, who described the matter on condition of anonymity because the investigation is continuing and deals with sensitive information.

Transparently predictable political maneuvering.  With Joe Biden about to enter race and Bernie Sanders dominating from the left – Hillary throws elbows:

“I was in a unique position as secretary of State at the start of this process. And not wanting to interfere with ongoing decision making that the president and Sec. Kerry have to do in order to make whatever final decisions they need. So I thought this would be decided by now, and therefore I could tell you whether I agree or disagree, but it hasn’t been decided and I feel now I’ve got a responsibility to you and voters who ask me about this. I think it is imperative that we look at the Keystone Pipeline as what I believe it is, a distraction from important work we have to do on climate change. And unfortunately from my perspective, one that interferes with our ability to move forward with all the other issues. Therefore I oppose it. “ (link)

After an entire media cycle filled with the insufferable professional punditry waxing on about how Muslims must be allowed to be President; the entire common sense electorate can sense the disconnect between reality and the professionally political.
Here’s a strong presentation about Ben Carson’s righteous position and the considerations of Islam – READ HERE – Meanwhile, Hilllary opines with this little PC twitter-sense:

Obviously, the U.S. Constitution outlines that “GOVERNMENT” “shall not apply a religious test as a qualification to any office etc.”  However, any individual or group is entirely free to attach their own litmus test if they so desire; it’s called discernment.
There is nothing forbidding an individual from applying their own belief system to their opinion of whether or not a Muslim follower should be trusted to “preserve, protect and defend the constitution of the United States“; nothing wrong with that at all.
With that in mind, here’s the ‘Splodey-Head question that no-one in the media is brave enough to ask Hillary Clinton: (more…)

Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton held events at the University of New Hampshire this past weekend.  Hillary’s crowd was around 300-350; two days later Bernie Sanders held his event in the same venue drawing 3,000+

This really doesn’t come as a surprise because prior polling indicated that Sanders had taken a substantial lead in New Hampshire.
But the story goes beyond Bernie Sanders drawing a crowd ten times the size of Hillary Clinton.   (more…)
