This Is NOT America - It's A Crime Scene (Media's Free Ride For The Clintons)

Matt Taibbi and Racket News have reported the origin of Hillary's RussiaGate hoax - surprise: it was Hillary. She is who betrayed the President (by calling him "illegitimate" and a traitor), deceived the nation, confused our allies, and tricked the world - including Russia - causing pure chaos. Because the Press will, apparently, print anything she says.

Of course, that she was behind all this was first reported in 2017, by Jonathan Alter and Amy Parnes, who were actually in the room as the whole thing began:

“Within 24 hours of her concession speech,” the authors report, campaign manager Robby Mook and campaign chair John Podesta “assembled her communications team at the Brooklyn headquarters to engineer the case that the election wasn’t entirely on the up-and-up. For a couple of hours, with Shake Shack containers littering the room, they went over the script they would pitch to the press and the public. Already, Russian hacking was the centerpiece of the argument.”

   

 That most reporters never really acted like it - since 2016 - is a nice reminder of the "eerie" hold on the Press that Christopher Hitchens mentioned to Charlie Rose, all the way back in 1999.

Just like our reporters also, somehow, conveniently "forgot" Bill Clinton is a multiple rapist.

THAT's how he gets to hobnob with the snobs in the Hamptons,...

 

NBC's Tom Brokaw Is Retiring From Journalism (And Not A Moment Too Soon)

 

 As you listen to this bit, you HAVE to imagine me at home, repeatedly screaming, "YOU FOOLS! HOW DO YOU NOT KNOW OPRAH PROMOTES FRAUDS?"

ADDED:

  "The habit of ignoring race is understood to be a graceful, even generous, liberal gesture." But "excising the political from the life of the mind is a sacrifice that has proven costly. . . . A criticism that needs to insist that literature is not only 'universal' but also 'race-free' risks lobotomizing that literature, and diminishes both the art and the artist," she says. "All of us, readers and writers, are bereft when criticism remains too polite or too fearful to notice a disrupting darkness before its eyes."

She's Got Two "Husbands" And A Gay Son? Figures,...*

I got this advice, for getting laid, from the Althouse:

CHARLIE ROSE:  It is incumbent on men to appreciate more and to do more and have the same responsibilities that women do.

What a maroon. Can I offer two other tried-and-true approaches? Here goes: 

1) Actually be a man. 

2) Take a shower every now and then. 

As the old saying goes, Earth Girls Are Easy.

Charlie Sheen Runs With A Bad Crowd? (Rubes)

Considering all the BS everybody wants to dump on regular guy Charlie Sheen - and, especially, considering the we-played-for-Gaddafi troupers - here's a few stories everybody should keep in mind the next time one of these celebrities are paraded before us as people we should look up to:

It’s no secret that Bill Clinton has long been friends with convicted sex-offender Jeffrey Epstein. Epstein has contributed to both Bill and Hillary’s campaigns. But no one knew about the night Bill spent on Epstein’s private Caribbean island with three underage girls until now.

Oh, but this Epstein nonsense gets better:

Last week I wrote about a party thrown by this convicted sleazebag for a group of news anchors including Charlie Rose, George Stephanopoulos, and Katie Couric. The next day I received a message from Katie Couric expressing her regret for attending the party, Stephanopoulos and Rose never responded. So let me ask again: Why are George Stephanopoulos and Charlie Rose socializing with this guy? Don’t ABC and PBS have some kind of ethics clause in their employee contracts?

Nope, not done yet - over to England:

Prince Andrew attended naked pool parties at the home of his billionaire paedophile friend, it was claimed yesterday.

Young women frolicked nude in the swimming pool while the Duke of York visited the Florida mansion of disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein.

And since we have to tie everything - literally everything - into Oprah and her friends (like NewAge "sweat lodge" murderer James Arthur Ray) here comes her gal pal - and children's book author - Sarah Ferguson:

The British Royal Family has added another scandal to its growing list, as news broke this weekend that ex-Duchess of York Sarah Ferguson once accepted £15,000 ($30,000) from a millionaire New Yorker convicted of pedophilia. 

 Ferguson, who held the nickname 'Fergie' from 1984 to 2003, accepted funds from hedge-fund millionaire and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein in order to pay debts to her former personal assistant. Ferguson's ex-husband, Prince Andrew, Duke of York, reportedly assisted with the deal.

And to that we can only add one word:

Winning!

Point Taken

"CHARLIE ROSE: How would you have lived your life differently based on what you know now?

ELIZABETH EDWARDS: Boy,...I certainly,..would not have voluntarily put myself in a position where,...I would feel so betrayed,...You know, I might have married somebody else,..."

-- Mickey Kaus, making a note that dealing with the whole "my spouse was dumb enough to fall for NewAge and commit adultery" thing still hasn't brought any of the much-promised joy, peace, and/or love to the "mind, body, and spirit" of the Edwards' household - imagine that! - and even after it's been posted on Slate.com.
