They never stoppped in the GOP wingnut sphere. It is literally a publishing industry. It will never, ever end.
The Bernie Bros are still at it. Whether this clown is not who it claims to be, or is just a useful idiot for the massive Russian-tracked spike in âleftâ generated attacks on Clinton in the past 4 weeks I am not sure.
But in the end, it doesnât really matter which. Itâs fraudlent Russian propaganda and narrative.
Thanks, you knowâŚitâsâŚIâŚwtfâŚwhatâs stands out to me is the WTF FBI? how is it possible that the FBI, particularly in NYC, can complain about some corruption with Hillary and pretend to not know how fucking corrupt trump is? Come on! If the NYC FBI didnât know about the money laundering, real estate shit, all the lawsuits and all the rest of trumpâs decades of corruption right there in front of their faces, every single day they suck at their jobs. OrâŚ
As lestat said, get bent. If it hadnât been the OMFG-she-promised-GS-trillions! bullshit, it would have been some other made-up bullshit. And you would have lapped it up, because somethingsomethingsomething
FSM save us from these BernOrBust-er morons.
Regnery Publishing and other conservative publishers are famous for creating sales numbers by shipping pallets of bulk books to buyers in order to create essentially fictional sales numbers. Look at any conservative blog, website, on-line magazine, etc and youâll see an offer for a âfreeâ copy of some Wingnut tome in exchange for subscribing to their newsletter or whatever.

The New York Times Wonât Put Ted Cruzâs Book on the Best-Seller List
By Margaret Hartmann Follow @marghartmann

Conservatives are always angry at the New York Times, but they're particularly irate tonight because the paper is refusing to put Ted Cruz's book A Time for Truth on its best-seller list. The book sold 11,854 copies in its first week, according to Nielsen BookScan, which is more than all but two of the books on this week's list.
Is it possible that the Times has taken desperate measures to prevent Americans from learning the awesome truths contained within Cruz's book? Sure. Though, on the other hand, books by Ann Coulter and Fox News' Dana Perino managed to make the cut, and the paper told Politico's Dylan Byers that the issue was A Time for Truth's suspicious sales patterns:
"We have uniform standards that we apply to our best seller list, which includes an analysis of book sales that goes beyond simply the number of books sold," Times spokesperson Eileen Murphy explained when asked about the omission. "This book didn't meet that standard this week."
Asked to specify those standards, Murphy replied: "Our goal is that the list reflect authentic best sellers, so we look at and analyze not just numbers, but patterns of sales for every book."
The Times has never released its exact methodology for compiling the best-sellers list. Book Review staff editor Gregory Cowles has said the formula is "a secret both to protect our product and to make sure people canât try to rig the system." Yet in the past few years there have been several controversies over authors who essentially bought their way onto best-seller lists by paying services to buy their books in bulk. ***When asked to elaborate on why Cruz's book was rejected, Murphy told Politico, "In the case of this book, the overwhelming preponderance of evidence was that sales were limited to strategic bulk purchases."***
Easy â Lying Littledick has an anatomical feature, small though it might be, that women donât have. That overrules all sorts of things.
And I donât mean his enormous gut nor his ridiculous combover.
His gut IS a combover, hiding a patch of flesh he doesnât want anyone to see.
Well, sometimes it takes awhile to translate things into English. (Whether from Russian or from Moron.)
Canât argue with that.
[Except to add that no one else wants to see it, either.]
I know the naysayer Clinton haters will jump on every comment board and want to engage in the Clinton vs Sanders debate. The fact remains that poll numbers flipped dramatically after Comey notified then-Rep. Jason Chaffetz of additional emails who ran to the media with it not caring what the contents were. Not letting Comey off the hook. The emails were discovered on a Friday He could have called his people in, reviewed the emails over the weekend and assessed if there was fire, which there was not. He than could have made a press statement to that fact. His concern he said was the criminal division of the FBI in NY knew about the and they didnât have the same standards of confidentiality as his people and the emails would have been leaked. This I believe because Iâd read many articles on how the NY FBI hated Clinton and Rudy Guilanni was constantly juicing them up with tales of how she would change the agency. They were strongly opposed to Clinton. Comey, not wanting to seem politically partial, decided to make his statement. It was a bad call.But, it was also a dammed if he did and dammed if he didnât call. The fact is if the polls were correct, changed the course and history of the United States of America.
Nate Silver: Clinton âalmost certainlyâ wouldâve won before FBI letter
Nate Silver has some very good articles on his website on the matter but the fact remains the letter was compelling enough to change the course of history. Yes, there were other issues Iâm sure people will point out because thatâs how the world is but between the emails & Russia, which by the way tRump on national TV asked Russia to find-this is where we are today.
FBI refuses to disclose documents on Trumpâs call to Russia to hack Clinton.
FBI decision to withhold records suggests Trumpâs provocative election-year comments are being seen as relevant to its own ongoing investigation. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2017/may/11/justice-department-fbi-documents-trump-russia-hack-clinton-email
In light of what has been revealed we now know there are other factors involved but those emailsâŚ
Comey will have to live the rest of his life agonizing, as heâs see the country that he loves so dearly and the laws heâs spent his life protecting being decimated and peed on by a man he deems unfit to be President and KNOW it didnât have to be this way. This is Comeyâs place in history and it is not very inspiring.
Thereâs no magic bullet that will fix speculative frenzies, undue influence on regulators by banks/Wall Street, corruption, etc. IOW while a lot of people might have found it satisfying for banksters to be prosecuted, Iâm inclined to doubt that this would have changed things much.
Seems to me that weâre headed for a period of inflation and a big crash. Just look at the Dow. I was living in Japan in 1990-91 leading up to the crash of the Nikkei. What Iâm seeing now reminds me of that.
Heck yeah donât wait to batten down your hatches w.r.t. finances.
A decent man but alarmingly naive. Protect us from Saints who burn down the house with their good intentions.
The Comey announcement less than two weeks before the election was the political equivalent of the last-second missed field goal. Or the dropped pass in the end zone. Or the pass interference call that allows the other team to score- and win - in the last seconds.
Yes, there is no question that the decision by Comey to announce the re-opening of the e-mail investigation just days before the election played a critical role in Clintonâs loss, but there also is no question that Clinton herself, and her team, made mistakes throughout the course of the campaign that also were a factor.
I have no idea if Comeyâs last minute play would have had the same effect if Clinton had not made some of the mistakes she did, but I think itâs also fair to acknowledge the role of the media, which has shown a distinct fondness for engaging in manipulation of information and messaging in order to drive ratings.
And letâs face it: it was Clinton. If Comey knew half as much as he thought he did, heâd have known that it wouldnât have mattered if Clinton had run a perfect campaign, with no problems or scandals. Comey would have known that the same Republicans who turned Benghazi into a cottage industry of investigations and hearings would have started impeachment hearings between the time the new Congress was seated and Clinton took the oath. There was no way the GOP was ever going to consider her legitimate, on Day One or any other day, so Comeyâs decision was extremely short on vision, context and a basic understanding of the dynamic.
In the eyes of Dems and others who supported Clinton, Comeyâs probably always going to be the hapless kicker, or the alligator-armed receiver, or the overzealous corner, who cost us the win, but the truth is that it should never have come down to the last play of the game.
Theyâre brainwashed by FNC, etc., just like 90+% of the rest of the irrational Clinton/Hillary haters. You must have noticed by nowâŚthis is a cultural phenomenon. Hillary is perhaps the most vetted and unfairly targeted person in human history.
This is part of the reason why Comey felt he had to make his statement. The audience was waiting.
Iâm seeing Comey as a well-intentioned but grandstanding, self-righteous, and (still) Republican so he had to do GOP CYA.
He screwed up and should have said nothing on both occasions. âNo prosecutionâ would be sufficient.
This book, is part of the Comey Redemption Tour. And I am fairly confident he is engaging in it, because he plans to run for office in the future.
And the result was an election between two tainted figures. As stated in South Park, Giant Douche v. Shit Sandwich.
Comey did it to protect Comey.
More like the curling team member that slips and falls on the ice, breaking his broom, and losing the match. Confirming to his mother, observing from the stands, that he should have gone into accounting like his father. To say nothing of letting that nice girl down the block, Gretel, get away.
âI could have had grandchildren by now, but nooooooo, my Ezra had to chase around rocks on the pond! God, what have I done to deserve this??â
Agree a million times over.
Absolutely correct
