The Evil Hillary Clinton

49 abominable facts about Hillary the media won't tell you 

By Jen Kuznicki

September 03, 2016

If you listen to the news, the only real reporting being done about Hillary Clinton has to do with her email scandal. Even though she violated the Espionage Act, the FBI refused to prosecute. Her family’s foundation is under heavy scrutiny. But did you know these other important points about Hillary’s life-long run to the White House?

Saul Alinsky

• During her college years at Wellesley, Hillary Clinton formed her political ideology as a close friend and confidant of Saul Alinsky, the Marxist firebrand who resurrected the “Communist Manifesto” and urged young liberals to agitate and create unrest to establish communist ends.
• Hillary Clinton’s senior thesis at Wellesley College was locked at her husband’s request during his time as president. The 92-page thesis was about Alinsky, with whom Clinton shared a mentor/apprentice relationship.
• According to NBCNews, David Brock called Hillary “Alinsky’s daughter” in his 1996 biography, “The Seduction of Hillary Rodham.”
• Hillary Clinton wrote in her thesis, “Much of what Alinsky professes does not sound ‘radical.’” This, coming from the man who dedicated his book, “Rules for Radicals” to Lucifer, “the first radical.”
• To read a more in depth article about Hillary and Saul Alinsky, read, “Alinsky’s Daughter: Here’s the truth about Hillary the media won’t tell you.”

Leftist Law Firm

• After college, Hillary searched for a leftist “movement” law firm and secured a spot at Treuhaft, Walker and Burnstein.
• Treuhaft was a former Communist Party member who defended the Black Panthers and other radical leftist groups.
• Walker was an avowed Communist until the day she died, and was notorious for successfully defending Angie Davis, a California Communist, on conspiracy murder charges. Davis purchased two firearms two days prior to an armed takeover of a county courthouse. While governor, Ronald Reagan barred Davis from teaching at any California University because of her militant communist beliefs. Walker made a living defending Communists against the Smith Act.
• Burnstein was a defender of leftist radical protesters, taking the side of the Communists in Vietnam.
• Hillary claimed to work on a child custody case only at the radical firm, but others recall differently. “We did a lot of conscientious-objector work,” during the Vietnam War.
• Why did Hillary go to Treuhaft, Walker, and Burnstein? Carl Bernstein quoted Treuhaft as saying, "The reason she came to us, the only reason I could think of because none of us knew her, was because we were a so-called Movement law firm at the time.

Israel

• As a college student, Hillary embraced the Palestinian Liberation Organization (PLO) and admired its leader Yassar Arafat, once defending him as a “‘freedom fighter’ trying to free his people from their Israeli ‘oppressors.’”
• In her run for senator from New York, Hillary claimed she had Jewish roots by bringing up her grandmother’s remarriage to a Jewish man.
• In reaction to seeing a menorah in a friend’s home, Hillary wouldn’t get out of her car, and friends heard Bill explain, "I'm sorry, but Hillary's really tight with the people in the PLO in New York. They're friends of hers, and she just doesn't feel right about the menorah."

Whitewater Scandal

• As partners in the Rose Law Firm, Hillary, Bill, and Jim and Susan McDougal participated in a pyramid scheme that used fraudulent real estate loans involving inflated appraisals to circumvent federal law. By the time the FBI investigated, every single person involved was indicted or destroyed except Bill and Hillary. Power Line reported in March 2015:

Clinton, working with Webster Hubbell and Vince Foster, stole hard copies of the billing records of the Rose law firm where they were partners. They erased the electronic version of these records. One set of these documents was later found in the White House, just outside Hillary’s private office, by an employee. Another set was found in Foster’s attic by his widow, some years after he committed suicide. Clinton’s time sheets (handwritten, as was the practice back in the day) were never found.

Fighting for Women

• While an attorney in Arkansas, Hillary defended a child rapist, knew he was guilty, but impugned the character of the 12 year old victim anyway, which would send the now-52 year old woman on a path to a life of drugs and crime. Hillary claimed the girl actively sought out “older men,” and had a reputation as a liar. In an interview, Hillary talked about having the rapist take a lie detector test, which he passed, and laughing, Hillary said, “Which forever destroyed my faith in polygraphs.”
• Hillary successfully defended a 300 lb man who obviously beat his girlfriend, and got the case thrown out on a technicality.
• Juanita Broaddrick claimed she was raped by Bill Clinton, Paula Jones won a $850,000 settlement when she accused Bill of sexual harassment, and Kathleen Willey accused Bill of sexual assault. In each of these cases, and many more, Hillary hired private detectives to dig up dirt on Bill’s accusers in order to destroy their stories, and keep Bill on his path to the White House, as told by biographer Carl Bernstein, former aide George Stephanopoulous, and former Clinton aide Dick Morris.

Black Lives Matter

• Hillary has said that white people have to, “recognize our privilege and practice humility.”
• To BLM rioters she said, “We need you. We need the promise of a rising generation of activists and organizers who are fearless in your advocacy and determination.”
• The Black Lives Matter founder from Worchester, Massachusetts, once complained to Hillary, “Until someone speaks the truth to white people in this country so that we can actually take on anti-blackness as a founding problem in this country, I don’t believe that there is going to be a solution. What in your heart has changed that’s going to change the direction of this country?” Hillary responded, “I don’t believe you change hearts, I believe you change laws. You change allocation of resources. You change the way systems operate,” indicating that she would change government to implement BLM’s demands.

Muslim Brotherhood

• Hillary backed the Muslim Brotherhood’s Mohammed Mursi. Incidentally, on the way to meet with Mursi, Hillary, was pelted with tomatoes while the Egyptians chanted, “Monica, Monica!”
• Hillary’s top aide, Huma Abedin, has well-established ties to the Muslim Brotherhood.
• Hillary sided with the second official-of-record of the Muslim Brotherhood in Libya and discussed what could be done to hamper Qaddafi. “Hillary’s war,” as identified by U.S Navy Rear Admiral Charles Kubic, ended in destabilizing Libya and enhancing the Muslim Brotherhood and ISIS.

Gun Control

• Hillary believes that Second Amendment proponents are a “minority” of people, and that their viewpoint is “terrorizing” the American people.
• Hillary not only wants to make gun ownership illegal for many, but would allow gun manufacturers to be sued by those who have been shot by a legally owned gun. This would include those committing crimes on private property.
• Hillary said that the Supreme Court is wrong about the Second Amendment, referring to District of Columbia v. Heller, which struck down the D.C. gun ban and ruled that individuals have a fundamental right to gun ownership under the Second Amendment.

The First Amendment

• Hillary has condemned the Citizens United court ruling and wants a constitutional amendment to overturn it. The Citizens United case hinged on the right to free speech and censorship of opposing views. Justices looked at the FEC ban as akin to book burning, and the court ruled that the FEC could not limit political speech.
• After four American lives were lost in Benghazi, Hillary Clinton blamed Nakoula Basseley Nakoula for a film he made about Islam. Hillary further falsely claimed the attack was in response to said film. To Charles Woods, the father of one of the deceased at Benghazi, Hillary said, “We will make sure that the person who made that film is arrested and prosecuted.” Nakoula was immediately jailed for over a year.
• She has every intention of using the full power of the federal government to snuff out religious liberty.
• Hillary has a long history of faulting or trying to ban movies, music, and video games for the actions of criminals.

Abortion

• Hillary’s view is that people’s religious beliefs have to be changed when it comes to abortion. “Laws have to be backed up with resources and political will,” she explained. “And deep-seated cultural codes, religious beliefs and structural biases have to be changed.”
• Hillary believes that an unborn child — just hours before delivery — has no constitutional rights, i.e., no right to life.
• Hillary praised her husband Bill for vetoing a partial birth abortion ban. Partial-birth abortion is exactly what it implies, a child is pulled feet-first out of the mother's womb past the navel and the abortionist punctures the skull of the baby, inserts a powerful vacuum, and suctions the baby's brains which collapses the skull and the child is pulled the rest of the way and discarded. At the time of the veto, the Clintons claimed it was a procedure to protect the health and life of the mother, but a prominent abortion advocate said at the time that the information given to the public was intentionally misleading.
• Hillary wants more funding to go to the abortion giant and butcher shop, Planned Parenthood.
• Hillary wants to overturn the Hyde Amendment, which is intended to ban government funding for abortion.

Immigration

• Hillary’s voter registration leader for her campaign is an illegal immigrant.
• Clinton wants to increase Syrian refugees coming into America from 1,500 to 65,000.
• At the Univision Democratic debate in March, Hillary said, “I am committed to introducing comprehensive immigration reform and a path to legitimate citizenship within the first 100 days of my presidency.”
• Hillary would allow illegal immigrants to obtain health insurance under Obamacare.

Much More

• Hillary’s first solo legal case was in defense of a canning corporation when a man found the back end of a rat in his pork and beans. Affectionately known as the “Rat’s ass case,” Hillary claimed it would be considered food in some countries.
• Grateful for Hillary’s help in his presidential run, President Jimmy Carter put her in charge of Legal Services Corporation, a federally funded nonprofit, whose budget under Hillary would swell from $90 million to $321 million. Investigators from the General Accounting Office found that during her leadership, those involved with the LSC were, “uniquely reprehensible.”
• In 1978 and 1979, Hillary turned a $1,000 investment into $98,540 in less than one year trading cattle futures under the guidance of a Tyson Foods outside attorney. Tyson Foods, under state law, was supposed to dispose of its chicken manure properly, but the state’s governor, Bill Clinton, never enforced the law. Five years later, seepage from the waste contaminated a community’s drinking water and made people sick. It took Bill Clinton 15 months to declare the town a disaster area.
• In two years, 2013-2015, Hillary made $2.9 million in speaking fees from large corporations including $675,000 from Goldman Sachs.
• In her commencement speech at Wellesley, Hillary quoted her mother as saying, “You know I’ll always love you but there are times when I certainly won’t like you.” In 1993, in an interview with the New York Times, Hillary attributed that exact quote to her father instead.
• Hillary was “the first presidential spouse to be subpoenaed. Bill and Hillary Clinton are the first and only first couple to be fingerprinted by the FBI.”
• Hillary was at the center of “Travelgate” during her time as first lady. The controversy surrounded seven people who were fired in the office and replaced with her cronies.
• Hillary claimed she came under sniper fire during a trip to Bosnia. That claim was easily debunked by Sharyl Attkisson who was accompanied Hillary’s trip as a member of the press. Hillary twice tried to make the silly suggestion stick before the media caught up with her.
• Hillary hailed the television channel Al Jazeera and said its viewership was going up in the U.S. “’because it’s real news. You may not agree with it, but you feel like you’re getting real news around the clock.’ She said it was ‘changing peoples’ minds and attitudes. And like it or hate it, it is really effective.’ U.S. news, she added, was not keeping up.”

Hillary is a radical's radical, a compulsive liar, and is intoxicated by the accumulation of wealth and power. Her Marxist ideology and belief that destroying this nation from within is what has motivated and propelled her to become president of this nation. Anyone considering voting for this destroyer should have their heads examined.

This Is The 2016 Bottom Line

A meme you can share ...

Hillary Clinton is a Criminal

The M14 DMR, EMR, & EBR

The DMR

The United States Marine Corps used the M14 to create the DMR (Designated Marksman Rifle) which is more formally the "United States Rifle, 7.62 mm, M14."

The DMR (aka the M14) is a semi-automatic, gas-operated rifle chambered for the 7.62x51mm NATO cartridge. It is simply a modified version of the M14 rifle built and utilized by the United States Marine Corps.

The big difference between the M14s that I was issued in the Corps and the DMR being issued is with all of it's modification and match-grade M118LR 175-grain Long Range ammunition.

The "basic" DMR, without secondary sight, magazine, sling, basic issue items, cleaning gear, suppressor and bipod, weighs 11 pounds or less. The DMR design facilitates repairing or replacing of the sight mount, barrel, bolt, and other key assemblies at the third echelon maintenance level.

The USMC Precision Weapons Section at Marine Corps Base Quantico built all DMRs. The Marine Corps replaced the DMR with the M39 Enhanced Marksman Rifle and the Mk 11 Mod 0 on a one-for-one basis.

There are several notable differences between the basic M14 and the DMR:

• Barrel: 22 inches, stainless steel, match-grade barrel by Krieger Barrels, Inc.
• Stock: McMillan Tactical M2A fiberglass stock. This particular stock features a pistol grip and a butt stock with adjustable saddle cheek piece.
• Optics: An over-action MIL-STD-1913 picatinny rail sourced from either GG&G Armament Arizona or Smith Enterprise, Inc. allows for the use of any optic compatible with the rail; this includes a rather large variety of military scopes and imaging devices.

The most common scope used on the USMC DMR are TS-30.xx series Leupold Mark 4 day scopes, AN/PVS-10 or AN/PVS-17 night vision scopes, and Unert M40 10× fixed power scopes.

• Muzzle device: Most DMRs utilize the traditional M14 muzzle device, although since deployment in 2001 in Iraq and Afghanistan, some DMRs are now equipped with the OPS, Inc. 2-port muzzle brake, which is threaded and collared to accept an OPS-Inc. 12th Model sound suppressor.
• Bipod: A Harris S-L bipod is used on the USMC DMR.

For the Marine Corps, a grunt operating as the Designated Marksman (DM) using a DMR is an integral part of Squad Tactics. The Marine DM's role fills the gap between a regular infantryman and a sniper typically being deployed at ranges of 270–550 yards and DMRs have been developed with this middle ground in mind.

These rifles have to be effective, in terms of accuracy and terminal ballistics, at ranges exceeding those of ordinary assault rifles and battle rifles typically 270 yards or less, and up to 550 yards respectively, but do not require the extended range of a dedicated sniper rifle which is typically employed for targets at ranges from 550–2,200 yards.

DMRs, however, often share some basic characteristics with sniper rifles in difference to the weapons carried by others in the DMs unit. DMRs may have an attached telescopic sight, quickly deployed stabilizing bipod to allow optimized accuracy and low-recoil in temporarily fixed situations or an adjustable stock.

They will, though, generally retain semi-automatic firing capability, to be more rapid than bolt-action sniper rifles, and a larger magazine capacity of 10, 20, or 30 rounds depending on the firearm in question.

A designated marksman primarily uses DMRs for enhanced accuracy and range.

The DMR fills the need for a lightweight, accurate weapon system utilizing a cartridge more powerful than the M16A4's standard 5.56x45mm NATO—the 7.62x51mm NATO.

Most DMRs are a battle rifle, semi-automatic or full-automatic, that fires 7.62mm NATO or similar full-power rounds - and not under-powered rounds of assault rifles such as that of an M16.

Marine Corps Explosive Ordnance Disposal Teams, Scout Snipers and sniper spotters also used DMRs when the mission requires rapid, accurate fire at long range.

The EMR

The Marine Corps is replacing the DMR with the M39 Enhanced Marksman Rifle and the Mk 11 Mod 0 on a one-for-one basis. Where the DMR looked like an up to date modernized tricked out M14, the M39 EMR looks like the M14 on steroids!

The M39 Enhanced Marksman Rifle (EMR) or more formally the Rifle, 7.62 MM, M39 Enhanced Marksman Rifle (EMR)) is a semi-automatic, gas-operated designated marksman rifle chambered for the 7.62x51mm NATO cartridge.

It is a modified and accurized version of the M14 rifle and is based on the current United States Marine Corps Designated Marksman Rifle (DMR), which it is replacing. The rifle is currently issued with match-grade M118LR 175-grain Long Range ammunition.

The "basic" EMR, without telescopic sight, magazine, sling, basic issue items, cleaning gear, suppressor and bipod, weighs 13 pounds or less. The EMR is primarily used by a Designated Marksman, to provide precision fire for units that do not rate a Scout Sniper.

As a replacement for the DMR, the EMR fills the need for a lightweight, accurate weapon system utilizing a cartridge more powerful than the M16A4's standard 5.56x45mm NATO—the 7.62x51mm NATO.

The EMR is also used by Marine Scout Snipers when the mission requires rapid accurate fire and by Marine Corps Explosive Ordnance Disposal teams. While the EMR stays in service with Marines in the field as its Designated Marksman weapon, in early 2012, the Marine Corps started replacing the M39 with the M110 Semi-Automatic Sniper System for its snipers.

Back in 2003, the US Army issued a market survey for a 7.62 mm Semi-Automatic Sniper System (SASS). Smith Enterprise responded to the market survey with an M14 rifle variant that was very impressive. They made the case why the Army should adopt the M14 Rifle and not an M16 platform as with the M110 for its sniper needs.

The EBR

The Mk 14 Enhanced Battle Rifle (EBR) is a variant of the M14. It was built for use with units of the United States Special Operations Command.

The EBR is being made with the intention of carrying out both designated marksman and CQB roles in combat. The weapon takes the standard M14 action and replaces the standard 22.0" barrel with an 18.0" barrel.

The barreled action is then bolted into a telescoping chassis stock system, with a pistol grip, a different front sight, Harris bipod, four picatinny accessory rails (which surround the barrel), and a more effective flash hider in place of the standard lugged USGI flash suppressor. A paddle-type bolt stop similar to that of the M4 carbine is used on the rifle.

The EBR chassis system stock is made up entirely of lightweight aircraft alloy.

A Kydex hand guard and M68 CCO are also added as standard external accessories, though they are almost always replaced with a vertical fore-grip and magnifying scope for better handling and for use in a designated marksman role.

A Wind Talker suppressor can be mounted on the DC Vortex flash hider, though the U.S. military did not adopt one to active service.


No, the M14 EBR isn't anything like the M14 that I was trained with in Boot Camp or carried overseas. But, it is certainly its great-grandson on steroids with a 7.62 attitude. And yes, this is very close to the sort of M14 that my father-in-law Nickel Jim would build -- but that's a story for another day.

One other thing that is really important to note. Because the M14 is so reliable and powerful, it is often favored by users for high lethality at longed ranges with great penetration. Those are features much appreciated by US troops in operations in Afghanistan and Iraq and other places around the world.

Since the start of the conflicts in Afghanistan and Iraq, many M14s have been employed as Designated Marksman and Semi-Auto Sniper Rifles. These are original production M14s with common very easy modifications including scopes, fiberglass stocks, and other accessories.

In 2009, a study conducted by the U.S. Army claimed that more than half of the all enemy engagements in Afghanistan occurred from beyond 300 meters (330 yards). The study claimed that America’s 5.56mm NATO service rifles, the M16 and the M4, are ineffective at these ranges. 

Since they had a report that told them what troops already knew, that report prompted the reissue of thousands of M14s to our troops. And with the reintroduction of the M14, our military understood that an M14 platform was needed to keep our troops safe and able to accomplish their mission better than before.

So now, can you see why for my money the M14 rifle is greatest battle rifle ever created? From the original design being as functionally perfect as it gets, the M14 has shown to be a platform in which to improve on.

And yes, that's just way I see it.

My Brother Herman Ray -- I Already Miss Him

Dear Friends,

Almost six years ago, my older brother had heart surgery. After that surgery, his health had gotten worse and worse. In fact, since this last March, our family has spent a great deal of time and effort to get him to his appointments, to emergency rooms, and shuttling him between one emergency care unit in Jackson and over to the VA hospital in Sacramento.

While our frustration has been with the VA in Sacramento, the nonsensical policies of hospitals when dealing with the VA, and of course the lack of communication at times, we just kept doing what we could do for him. Yes, even on a night when I was out of town and he tried calling me, our 81 year old mom picked him up at midnight at his home and transported him the hour and a half ride to the VA hospital in Sacramento because a local ambulance service didn't.

Please understand, this blog post is not meant to slight all of the wonderful efforts made by my sisters Valerie and Joanie, or my brothers Vernon and Howard, or anyone else. This is about the passing of our brother Herman Ray and my relationship with him, especially over these last 16 years.

Since late February, he spent more time in the hospital than not. About four months ago, because his body was retaining massive amounts of water and his liver and kidneys were feeling the impact of "aggressive" treatment, his "team" at the VA gave him just days to live. Weeks and a month at best. But, as unlikely as it was, he made a recovery that amazed us and his team.

Sadly, my bother's recovery didn't last and he was back in the hospital by October 25th. The VA in Sacramento said that they did not have a bed for him. So after going to the Emergency Room at Sutter Amador Hospital in Jackson, he was transported to Sutter Memorial in Sacramento.

Because of a few medical problems of my own, I was only able to talk to him on the phone. And frankly, after talking to those treating him there, it really sounded as though they would have him up and going in no time. We even discussed transferring him to a Skilled Nursing Facility so that he could build up his strength and get some therapy before going home again.

Late on November 1st, yes his birthday, I got a call that said that I better get down there to see him "if I want to see him alive."

Around midnight, I picked up my mom and by one o'clock we were at my older brother Herman's bedside in ICU at Sutter Memorial Hospital in Sacramento. He was barely coherent, but he knew we were there. We were there for a while before having to leave to take my mom back to her home in Ione.

RN Danielle Ruiz said she would pass the word on to let me know pf any changes. I thanked her and told her that I appreciated all of what she was doing. Like all of the staff there, RNs Jennifer Oscapinski, Rose Keyser, Paula Bennett, and RT Tina Sin, they were very wonderful and caring. And yes, I told RN Elissa Friedrich that I couldn't do her job. No, I really do not know how they do it.

I came home and cleaned up expecting to get another call. I was expecting the worse. I fell asleep in my recliner, and was out like a light for a few hours when I got a call from a Case Worker who was telling me about the plan to get him to a Skilled Nursing Facility. That was about 10 am, and I assumed that he condition had improved drastically.

By Noon, things took a bad turn and his treatment team wanted to have a tele-conference with me and my brother's two children. We had the tele-conference at about 3 pm.

With his cardiologist present, his treating physician Dr. Daniel Ikeda who told us the bad news. There was nothing more that could be done for Herman. They recommended that his aggressive medical treatment be stopped and comfort care begin so that he wouldn't endure any more pain since his liver and kidneys had all but completely shut down, and his heart was too blocked to function.

My brother was divorced and a widow. He lived alone and his children were on their own. He asked, and I accepted the responsibility of looking after his needs if he was ever in a position where he couldn't make a medical decision for himself.

Frankly, it has been a double-edged sword. On one hand, I'm very honored to do my best to see his wishes carried out.

We were not the closest brothers for many years because of this or that, but over the last 16 years he has been a great older brother and best friend. He moved to Sutter Creek and then to neighboring Jackson, and this brought him about 25 minutes away. And yes, he enjoyed coming out to see my wife and me. He also enjoyed coming out to shoot on my pistol range on the side of our house, going with me to get hay in Angels Camp, and of course having steak and eggs over at Mel & Faye's Diner in Jackson.

He called me just about everyday. Some times he needed to complain about something not going right in the world, but mostly we talked about growing up in Hawaii and how much we both miss those days.

He liked my little "ranch". But frankly, it's not much of a ranch more than it is a reminder of those days spent on our grandpa's ranch. And while I know some folks may have been fooled by his present-day city ways, my older brother was a real cowboy. And yes, I can attest that he could rope and ride and wrestle cows and calves, cattle of all sorts and temperaments, if need be.

We talked a lot about his being able to ride again. I'd promised him a bomb-proof horse that wouldn't kill him. And he'd tell me that that didn't sound like a bad way of going. Sadly, his health never allowed him to get back in the saddle. And yes, I feel that I really wish I had put my older brother on a horse like he did me when we were growing up.

As for the other side of that double-edge sword pertaining to his care at the end, I never thought this day was coming for some strange reason. I guess I accepted his refusing to believe that he may die. While he and I talked a lot about what to do in regards to his care, and what he wanted if and when he would die, he didn't want to make any arrangements. And while he had an Advance Directive and I had Power of Attorney for him, he didn't make out a Will.

So after talking with his his cardiologist and treating physician, after getting the bad news, I phoned my mom and told her that I'd be picking her up, that we needed to get back to the hospital. And yes, I knew there would be all sorts of problems coming up if he passed away because he and I didn't get a Will drawn up.

Along with my wife Deanna, we arrived at the hospital at about 7 pm. Yes, Sacramento is about 2 hours away. And yes, the mind wonders during a long quiet drive like that.

For me, I thought about our lives. I thought about how we have a large family, about how we finally became close, and about what he wanted. I wondered what to do with his home and property since I wouldn't have a legal leg to stand on to help him. But mostly, I thought about his wishes versus what was needed for the emotional state of his son and daughter who were with him in his ICU room when we arrived.

The doctors said they would not stop his aggressive care and start his comfort care until I arrived. And when my mom, my wife and I arrived, we were surprised to see his face under an oxygen mask. Yes, his breathing was shallow and he needed that thing to keep him alive.

When I checked on when the terminal comfort care would start, I was told that the end would start when I wanted it to. My friends, carrying out his last wishes were one of the hardest things that I've ever had to do.

I decided to wait until after a Chaplin showed up to give Herman the sacraments of the sick. When he arrived we all held hands and prayed. To myself, I begged God for a miracle. But no, none came.

I was told that Herman might gasp for air when his mask was removed before they replace it with another less intrusive nasal oxygen tube. I didn't want his children and grandchildren to see that. No, I didn't want that to be one of the last images of their father and grandfather. So I asked everyone to leave for a few minutes while RN Elissa Friedrich and RT Howard removed his mask and made him presentable.

I watched him as they got him ready. And yes, I tried to hold all my tears inside as he gasped a little. But soon, well soon he was just snoring away. Yes, he was asleep and snoring. And yes, they increased the morphine going to him steadily.

Before the others came back into the room, I held his hand, leaned over, and kissed the top of my brother's head. I told him that I loved him. I told him that I was doing what he wanted. And whether it was my imagination or not, as I squeezed his hand, I thought I felt him squeeze mine back. So yes, even at that moment, I knew that I was going to miss him something awful.

Yes, I will miss how we laughed about the old days when we kids were climbing trees and getting into mischief. I will miss reminiscing about how we didn't worry about getting hurt or having to wear bicycle helmets and pads and such just to have fun as kids do today. I will miss our talks about how our Oahu has changed into what it is today. And yes, I will certainly miss us joking about how men today are being feminized and how it has become fashionable to be an angry women and looking like an MMA fighter.

I will miss his rants about how parents are to blame for much of the wrong going on these days, and how being a rebel doesn't mean being a jerk. And of course, I will miss him going on about his frustration with his beloved Oakland Raiders. Yes, he was a devout Raider fan.

The others came back in the room and though not an easy thing, like me, they were there to say goodbye as well. They were there in his final hours. They were doing what family is supposed to do. All out of love.

I was told that it might take minutes, or it might take a day or two. It was up to Herman Ray. So with that, we watched him sleep and snore. And soon, while he slept, we talked about the times and the things we will all remember. And yes, we laughed at some of those things. The laughter was not loud but more like a coping mechanism. It was needed in that bleak moment.

It was around 1 am that my mom was looking pretty tired, and the nurse had just increased Herman's morphine drip to 5 on a scale of 1 to 10. It was then that I said that I needed to take mom home. It was then that most everyone then left.

Of course, not my nephew Steven who had been there sitting with his dad for three days. He had been sleeping on the floor in a corner of that ICU room and he refused to leave. Yes, he stayed with his dad to the end. And frankly, I have never more proud of him.

My wife and I dropped my mom off at her home about 3 am. My wife and I got home to Glencoe a little before 4:30 am. We were in bed less than an hour when our phone rang at 5:30 am. It was RN Elissa Friedrich telling me that his blood pressure and heart beat had dropped to the point where it would be soon.

I thanked her for the call. She is a great person, very caring, and she said how sorry she was for my family. Again I thanked her. A couple of minutes after I hung up with her, my nephew Steven called to tell us that his dad, my older brother, just passed away quietly.

Steven then called my mom, his grandma, and he also called his sister and others. And frankly, while I was mentally and emotional exhausted, I answered the phone every time my wife answered it and handed it to me.

Since I was informed that we have three days to have him out of the hospital's mortuary, I worked on this most of Thursday and Friday. I have gone through most of his papers and now I'm forming a battle plan as to what to do next.

At midnight on Thursday, my nephew Steven and I talked for about an hour. I hope and pray that he and his sister, my nephew and niece, know that our family is there for them -- not just now, but forever. Yes, we are there for them. They should not feel alone because their dad has passed.

At 10 am, I met with him and my niece Jessica at their dad's house. My wife, my mom, bother sisters, and Steven's close friend Gina were there. I let them know what I've found in his papers, what I'm doing in the form of arrangements, and we tossed around what we all wanted in the way of a memorial.

Since my brother wants to return home to Hawaii, and have his ashes scattered at sea, we will do that. When that happens, I will make sure his children and grandchildren see where we were from on Oahu, where we grew up, the place that influenced who we are. And no, looking back on life, he and I were different in some ways but not where it counts. Yes, love and commitment to family is at our core.

As for my brother Herman Ray, well he was ornery, hardheaded, a real rebel. But besides swearing no different than other Boatswain-mate that I've ever known, he was very proud of his many years in the Navy. So yes, we all agreed that we will have a military memorial service for him. And yes, I will be proud to arrange that.

My job, what role I have is actually simple. I have to do what my brother wanted me to do, while at the same time doing right by my niece and nephew. They are my brother Herman's children, they are my blood, and my soul. And yes, I look at them and I see my brother and that is a comfort to me.

My brother Herman Ray Correa passed away at around 5:30 am on Thursday, November 3rd, 2016. He was 62 years and 2 days old. And though this is now Saturday, I already miss him a great deal.

So now, why write this story? Well, I wanted to tell you about my older brother. I wanted to tell you how a good man passed away recently.

You see, I write about the real Old West. I write about guns, and horses, and Conservative politics. I've even written about my love for America. And now, I wanted to write something about my big brother Herman Ray.

I love the fact that he loved my blog, and that he was always supportive when it came to my writing. And yes, he was absolutely pissed when he found out about a few teachers who tried their best to stop me from writing when I was in my twenties and thirties.  

In his life, my brother made some mistakes. But then again, haven't we all? I mean really, who among us hasn't done things we regret? I know I have.

As for being a dad, he told me that he was trying to be as good a dad as possible in his own way. But friends, as he said, most of the time he didn't know if he was screwing up or not. I can attest to the fact that he loved both of his children and worried about them.

So friends, as far as I'm concerned, my brother was a good man trying to do right. And yes, in many ways, that's especially true during his last days when he was trying to make up for some of those mistakes he made.

A very long time ago, I found out how short life really is. I've learned that if we are lucky, have longevity in our families, and work very hard at maintaining a healthy lifestyle, then maybe we may live a little longer than some. And while, I know that that is about all that we can hope and pray for, I know my brother Herman is now with God, our dad and grandparents, and the angels in Heaven.

I also know that I will see him again. You see, I truly believe that our souls will again saddle up and ride together like we did when we were kids. And yes, since he liked to read my blog, I know real well that he would have loved to read that.

Let's Talk About Poverty And White Privilege

Peggy McIntosh

In my opinion, the term "White Privilege" was created by a White racist man hater. Yes, a Hate Monger who was angry at White men.

I believe Peggy McIntosh has made a career of spreading this hateful lie, no different than Al Sharpton and Jessie Jackson have made careers with their hate mongering. Yes, that's my opinion of Peggy McIntosh.

And after reading parts of her 1988 "opinion article" which the term "White Privilege" came from, I believe that even more so.

What makes me believe that is the fact that the she apparently believes Whites in "Western societies" enjoy advantages that non-Whites do not experience. She believes Whites have some sort of "an invisible package of unearned assets". 

According to Wikipedia, Peggy McIntosh is a feminist and "anti-racism" activist, the associate director of the Wellesley Centers for Women, a speaker on "White Privilege" and the founder of a Liberal project called SEED (Seeking Educational Equity and Diversity). Yes, it's a safe bet that she gets American taxpayer funding and has made a lot of money off of her White-hate.

McIntosh is most famous for authoring the 1988 opinion article "White Privilege and Male Privilege: A Personal Account of Coming to See Correspondences through Work in Women's Studies".

Her "opinion" is that all Whites benefit socially, legally, and economically, on a daily basis compared other races. And according to her, this is more true when is come to "White Men". 

She believes that Americans need to overcome what she calls "systems of racial oppression." And yes, while she makes all sorts of assumptions in her opinion article, McIntosh assumes the notion that attacking White Americans is a direct way to lessen supposed oppression of "people of color" in America.

First, her assumptions are incorrect and only serve to divide America and demonize White Americans. And second, after reading part of her opinion piece, I believe she hates White men in general.

While I'm all for women's rights on the grounds of political, social, and economic equality, something that Democrats do no practice, her hate of White men didn't surprise me coming from a feminist who believes that an entire race of people are oppressing others in this day and age when facts don't prove her assumptions true. Yes, her idea of White Privilege is wrong. The idea is asinine.

This really doesn't surprise me since many on the Left specialize in spreading hate for America, and specifically hate for White Americans. I really believe their goal is to stoke the fires of discontent and create an envy even when there is no reason for it.

I believe people like Peggy McIntosh want to find scapegoats and excuses for one thing or another. Yes, mostly to make excuses for a lack of drive or the lack of gumption it takes to overcome obstacles which we all face.

In Nazi Germany, the same mindset demonized Jews. The Nazi Party pit German against German using race and class warfare to take their focus off the real agenda of the Nazi Party -- that of complete control of the German people. As what took place in Nazi Germany of the 1930s, there are those who use race and class warfare to divide and conquer. All to farther their own agenda of hate.

Today, America has Liberals on the Left who work tirelessly to divide America. Sadly, it seems that President Obama and others on the Left, yes the Democrat Party, has worked to make White Americans the enemy of minorities. And yes, my opinion is that the Left started this by declaring that White Americans have societal privileges, so-called "White Privilege", that other Americans don't have.

So now, let's talk about hard times and something called "White Privilege"

The above picture is of a child drawing water from a hand pump in an agricultural workers' shack in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. July, 1939. The picture was one of the many pictures taken by the U.S. Department of Agriculture during the Great Depression.

I know that a great number of young people have no idea about the true hardship of the Great Depression. Even though my parents and grandparents endured those tough days, many people today really have no idea about how really bad it was. And yes, sadly, there are some out there who are trying to rewrite history to say "White Americans" did not suffer during the Great Depression.

Do you think I'm exaggerating what is being taught? No. I'm not.

In a recent email, I was informed by a reader that she was being taught in her university's history course of study, that "Whites aren't effected by poverty like other races are in the United States, and never have been, even during the Great Depression. It's called 'White Privilege.'"

First. let me make something clear. There are two periods of American History, that I have studied more than any other. The first being the Old West from 1867 to 1917 when Americans entered into World War I, and the Great Depression from 1920 to 1941.

And while some are going to read this and say the Great Depression did not start until the Stock Market crash in 1929, I want to ask you to remember that unemployment was almost 12 percent in 1920 and dipped just 7 percent before the Stock Market which shot unemployment to over 25 by 1932. Unemployment did not come down below 10 percent until 1940.

Also, let's keep in mind that that's the "official" numbers that we know of. As with today, there are a great number of people out of work who are unaccounted for and subsequently not part of the statistics. While people drop of the rolls, the unemployment numbers look better. Of course, the problem is that the government has no way to know whether an unemployed person dropped off the rolls because they found a job or because they simply ran out of benefits and were dropped even though they didn't find a job.   

So let's talk about people living in miserable poverty during the Great Depression, and this imaginary thing called "White Privilege" that so many racists are talking about today. And later, let's talk about the person who created the term "White Privilege" and how she got it wrong.

It is said the children of the Great Depression had to grow up faster than any other generation in recent history.

It's wrong to accept the Liberal Left's lies about how all White Americans have had some sort of free ride, more chances, more benefits, more of everything than others in our nation. As ignorant as that sounds, especially coming from university teachers, there are some people today who actually believe the propaganda, the lies, that is coming out of American colleges and universities.

If we are to believe their lies, than we are to believe that somehow the color of one's skin enables some people to stave off hunger, to ward off economic downfall, to protect them from despair and depression. If we believe the lies coming from Liberals these days, we are led to believe the lie that the folks in these picture taken during the hard days of the Great Depression simply didn't know that they supposedly had more privileges over other Americans because of the color of their skin.

For me, I refuse to believe the lies coming from Liberals. I know our history and have never seen such things as they are fabricating. 

Mother and children in rags during the Great Depression, 1936. Does anybody looking at this picture think they have more or special societal benefits because they were White Americans instead of any other race of Americans? For those today who accept the lies, the hate, the use of the term "White Privilege" to divide us as Americans, I know very well that they believe she did!

Mother with hungry children living in a tent camp in Nipomo, California. The mother in this photo was the famous subject of a Depression-era portrait known as "Migrant Mother." March, 1936. Photograph by Dorothea Lange.

This last picture of Americans during the Great Depression is of White children having a dinner of potatoes and cabbage. That was their Christmas Dinner in 1936.

Why am I addressing this topic? Well, in a recent email, I was informed that "Whites aren't effected by poverty like other races are in the United States, and never have been. It's called 'White Privilege.'"

So let's talk about poverty and the myth that somehow White Americans are not effected by hard times because of some make-believe thing called "White Privilege."

But first, let's ask the question if there is a "poverty cycle" today as with what took place during the Great Depression? During the Great Depression, the "poverty cycle" was real and very present as Americans were laid off work and there were no opportunities for new employment.

There were simply no jobs. And friends, the idea of government financed "safety net" programs, to help Americans in dire straights were not around yet. We forget that there were very few government programs, either welfare or other relief programs, to help the American people before 1935. No matter what color you were.

During the Great Depression, the "poverty cycle" seemed endless as it became very apparent to all that the continuation of poverty was triggered by a chain of events, thus it became known as the "poverty cycle".

The poverty cycle: Unemployment meant homelessness, which meant inadequate housing, which meant hunger, family break-up, bad health, and a belief in a bleak future. 

Yes, families broke up. The lack of full-time employment resulted in the need to search outside of one's community and across the country for jobs. Not finding jobs resulted in high levels of stress which all contributed to family breakdowns. This is said to have resulted higher than normal levels of depression and despair.

People were evicted from their homes, separated from friends and neighbors. Families were uprooted or squeezed into the homes of relatives. Living conditions were horrid and overcrowded conditions were common. All of which helped to fuel the poverty cycle.

My grandmother used to say, "A man feels good about himself when he's working."

She was absolutely right. The effects of poverty in the 1930s led to feelings of shame, low self-esteem, and despair. That's why during the Great Depression, Americans were driven to take desperate measures and the crime rate increased. People became wary of strangers and were less likely to offer help to strangers.

The condition of "absolute poverty" has been described as "a condition characterized by severe deprivation of basic human needs, including food, safe drinking water, sanitation facilities, health, shelter, education and information". That was the Great Depression.

By the way, during the Great Depression, being White did not stop you from being out of work, hungry, displaced, or despondent. Being White did not mean you were rolling in money while other Americans suffered. Being White did not mean that you received some sort of preferential treatment, some sort of benefit because of  your skin color. Hunger, homelessness, joblessness, helplessness are color blind, just as it is today.

Is there some sort of "White Privilege" when it comes to today's economy?

This picture is White Poverty in America in 2014.

Friends, though the poverty numbers are high today, the type of poverty of the Great Depression is different than the poverty in America today. For one thing, the poverty cycle is not as widespread today because of "safety net" programs.

But besides the "safety net" programs that are around today that weren't around years ago, how poverty is defined today has changed. Today, the Federal government considers many citizens "statistically" impoverished despite their ability to sufficiently meet their basic needs. And yes, that includes having adequate shelter, food, clothing, and medical care.

Today, people who are considered "statistically" under the poverty line but actually have the ability to own cell phones, a car, have cable or satellite television, and other items that may not seem possible in their economic state. Also, when measuring if one is below the poverty line or not today, the official Federal poverty line excludes taking into consideration some forms of income, whether or not one is receiving Welfare benefits, Food Stamps, or if one is in public housing.

This means that in some cases, people currently living under the official Federal poverty line are actually better off than many middle-class America. This is because middle-class Americans are paying more taxes than ever before while bringing home less of what they earn.

There are 47 million people living in statistical poverty in the United States as of 2014. That means the poverty rate for 2014 was 15%. And yes, the 2014 poverty rate was 2.3 percentage points higher than in 2008 when the present recession started.

So yes, there is definitely an increase. Of course we should note that, whether people want to accept it or not, government over-regulation and high taxation are responsible for closing more businesses and creating poverty in America than any other reason. And this nonsense that somehow White Americans are the less affected by the closings and relocation is pure bull!

Privilege is defined as "a special right, advantage, or immunity granted or available only to a particular person or group of people."

While this article is about poverty and the fraud the Left is calling "White Privilege," I would like to mention that the number of White Americans make up 84 percent of total taxpayers in America, and pay higher taxes than other races. So is that an economic benefit of "White Privilege"? I don't think so if there were such a thing.

White Americans make up a greater number of what is being called the "working poor." They have less employment opportunities because Federal and State programs encourage the hiring of other races in lieu of hiring White Americans. Minorities have special educational funding programs, housing allowances, and less hoops to jump through when it comes to getting into colleges and universities.

Are these the social and economical benefits of White Privilege that Liberal talk so much about? And how about poverty in America when it comes to White Americans having some sort of benefit over others? And really, why is it OK that White Americans are denied jobs or have to overcome obstacles getting into schools and universities, or getting grants, because of their color?

Don't think this happens? While I don't hate anyone of color because I was raised to be color bind, and was taught to judge people on the content of their character and not by the color of their skin, I was flat out told that I would not be hired as a police officer in a number of cities back in the early 1980s because I wasn't Black.

Did that make me hate Blacks? No. Did that make me disillusioned in the system? Yes. Did I find that right and just? No, but I accepted it as just the way thing were.

And though that was the only time I was effected by racial quotas, I never expected that things would get worse. Today, it's not only city and state governments that are forced by law to meet minority hiring quotas, "big brother" demands that businesses do so as well or face problems.

So today it really doesn't matter who is best qualified for a job, but what color your skin is. And friends, I don't think it's "fair" that one can work his or her butt off to attain the skills and qualifications needed for a certain career, then be denied the chance to pursue that career because one has the wrong skin color or sex. And that applies for any color, or either sex.

Rising to management positions in most of my career choices, I fought for people, not based on color but on character and abilities, all who demonstrated that they had to skill and qualifications to do the job. I hated being told that I had to promote someone simply to fill a quota.

If "White Privilege" is real, than way was it that I didn't get hired even when I was less qualified for a job? If "White Privilege" is real, than way was it that I had to stand in line with everyone else for work? Was it my Spanish/Portuguese surname, my latin surname? If "White Privilege" is real, than way didn't my skin color give me benefits of some sort? It's because the whole idea of White Privilege is a lie? And franky, that is especially true when measured by the poverty rate in America.

While conditions today are not as bad as the Great Depression for everyone in America, today White Americans statistically account for the vast majority of the poor in America.

Yes, of the 47 million people living in "statistical poverty" in the United States, according to the U.S. Census 2014 report, more than half of those living below the poverty line are White Americans.

And as for the children affected by poverty, reports state that White children comprise almost 60 percent of all poor children in America. Child poverty reached record high levels in the United States recently with over 17 million children living in food insecure households. And also, it was reported that many of the neighborhoods these children live in lack basic nutritious food.

Yes, the majority were White children. So where exactly is this White Privilege?

Remember, as of 2015, we know that 47 million people were in poverty and on food stamps. Of that, 26 million are ages 18-64; 17 million are children under the age of 18; and over 4 million are seniors 65 and older. And we know that the vast majority are White Americans. Does any think that White Americans have it better than others, especially with those statistics? 

As for homelessness? A report by the National Center on Family Homelessness states the number of homeless children in the United States has reached record levels. That report stated 2.5 million children, or one child in every 30, experienced homelessness in 2013. And yes, the majority of those children are White.

So now for my reader who wrote to say, "Whites aren't affected by poverty like other races are in the United States. It's called White Privilege."

Ask yourself if White Americans should consider it a privilege to pay more taxes, be the majority of our nation's tax payers, be the majority of the "working poor," be shot more by police, or if White Americans should consider it a privilege to be the majority of the poor in America? Unless I'm missing something, the hate for White Americans based on this simply doesn't hold water.

Do you really believe and accept what the Liberal Left is feeding you when they are in fact just lying in an effort to divide Americans? I hope not. But frankly, I know people do.

I hope this helps folks see what's really going on in America. I hope people see that the term "White Privilege" is just propaganda created by the Left to incite hate and division in America today.

And yes, that's just the way I see things.

Thank You R.C. & Connie

I get a lot of email from you. And yes, I love it. I love knowing that you think I'm either on the right track or that I'm full of it. Either way, I love the fact that many of you take the time out to write me.

And please, make no mistake about it, I get requests for articles on this person or that, some famous and some not, places, horses, different types of firearms, and so on. I also get requests to help people with their books, their research, and I'm always pleasantly surprised when someone says that they want to use one of my articles, or a piece of information, in their book or article.

Along with a few old newspaper clippings, I have gotten some great pictures. All I ask is that people do not send me the originals of either. If you want to send me a copy that's great, but really those clippings and photographs should be kept in your families. It's not that I don't appreciate them, it's just that they really belong to you and should be passed down in your family.

And while I get clippings, records, photographs, and pamphlets, R.C. and his wife Connie has sent me books for my research. And yes, for you who might be wondering, they are First Edition Civil War History books.

No, it's not every day that a reader sends me books -- especially First Editions from 1960. But there's more, RC and Connie have also sent me a wonderful donation.

In his letter to me, he asked that I buy some sugar cubes, a few bales of sweet grass, and to take my best girl out for a cold one. Well, with their great donation, I have done just that. I bought sugar cubes, apple treats, and some sweet feed for our horses. And yes, I also took my wife to dinner and told her that that was on the Wiese family.

So now, why am I publicly thanking RC and Connie for such gifts?

Well, first off, over the last six years, other than RC and Connie's very generous donation, I had received $40 in donations. And while that doesn't sound like much to some, those two $20 donations made me feel like a million bucks!

You see, I started this blog not really knowing where it would go. I figured that I'd simply talk about the things that interest me, such as America, guns, real Old West history, horses, and of course the things that make us, you and me, we Americans, a great people. 

My reward is simple enough. I like knowing that great people like you, and RC and Connie, enjoy what I write about. And yes, I'm hoping that I don't disappoint you in the future.

Back in the 1990s, I traveled around our great nation a lot. Yes, a lot. While doing inspections of power plants and other energy related businesses, I met some great people in all of the states. I was at the Monticello Nuclear Generating Plant in either 1990 or '91. You folks in Minnesota are truly great people. 

Thank you RC. And if you're reading this, please pass along my thanks to your wife Connie as well.

May God Bless you and yours.

Your friend,

Tom Correa

FBI reopens investigation into Hillary Clinton's email use

FoxNews.com

Published October 28, 2016

FBI reopens Clinton email investigation after new messages found

The FBI has reopened its investigation into Hillary Clinton’s use of a private server while secretary of state after discovering new emails, in a stunning turn of events just days before the presidential election.

FBI Director James Comey wrote in a letter to top members of Congress Friday that the bureau has “learned of the existence of emails that appear to be pertinent to the investigation.”

Comey did not detail those emails, saying only that they surfaced “in connection with an unrelated case.”

He told lawmakers the investigative team briefed him on the information a day earlier, “and I agreed that the FBI should take appropriate investigative steps designed to allow investigators to review these emails to determine whether they contain classified information, as well as to assess their importance to our investigation.”

He said the FBI could not yet assess whether the new material is significant and he could not predict how long it will take to complete “this additional work.”

A senior law enforcement official separately told Fox News the FBI decision is not linked to WikiLeaks messages or any hack, and the newly discovered emails did not come from the Clinton server – but from another device from another government official.

The move comes after Comey and the Justice Department decided in July not to pursue charges over Clinton's email practices, saying at the time that the investigation was finished.

Comey has since come under criticism from Donald Trump, lawmakers and others who claim the investigation downplayed the mishandling of classified information during Clinton's tenure.

Trump, speaking to cheering supporters Friday afternoon in Manchester, N.H., praised the FBI for having the “courage” to “right the horrible mistake that they made” – saying he hopes that is “corrected.”

“Hillary Clinton’s corruption is on a scale we have never seen before,” Trump said. “We must not let her take her criminal scheme into the Oval Office.”

In a nod to the significance of the FBI’s announcement, Trump quipped: “The rest of my speech is going to be so boring.”

Other GOP lawmakers also weighed in, urging the bureau to pursue a thorough new probe.

“The FBI’s decision to reopen its investigation into Secretary Clinton reinforces what the House Judiciary Committee has been saying for months: the more we learn about Secretary Clinton’s use of a private email server, the clearer it becomes that she and her associates committed wrongdoing and jeopardized national security," House Judiciary Committee Chairman Bob Goodlatte, R-Va., said in a statement.

Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus said the discovery must be “serious” for the bureau to investigate this close to the election.

Clinton did not respond to questions from reporters about the development as she landed in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, and did not address the matter while speaking to supporters in the same city.

The development comes 11 days before the general election, and is the latest shockwave to hit the race. Clinton had been gaining in the polls over Trump in the wake of the release of footage showing Trump talking about groping women and subsequent allegations of sexual assault and harassment against him.

However, daily revelations from hacked Clinton campaign emails obtained by WikiLeaks have become a headache for the Democrat's campaign. The resumption of the FBI probe poses a potentially bigger problem.

Ron Hosko, former assistant director of the FBI, told Fox News in a telephone interview that retired FBI officials were "livid" at Comey over the fact that charges were not brought against Clinton in round one of the investigation.

"He lit her on fire and then walked away," Hosko said of Comey holding a news conference laying out Clinton's mishandling of classified information but then not pressing criminal charges.

Hosko said he still defends Comey for not pressing charges because the FBI always has to make a decision "based on what they have" at the time. Hosko said he thinks agents were probing a separate matter and found emails that made them say, "Oh my God look at what we have."

-- end of article from Fox News.

Friends, Federal law enforcement officials said the new emails were uncovered in the closed investigation into Hillary Clinton's use of a private email server. They were actually discovered after the F.B.I. seized electronic devices belonging to Hillary Clinton aide Huma Abedin and her husband Anthony Weiner. Yes, by way of that scumbag pervert Democrat Anthony Weiner.

I was just watching Fox News and they were showing Hillary Clinton giving a speech at a campaign rally. As usually, she lied about where Donald Trump stands on issues -- all while not mentioning a word about being investigated by the FBI again.

Am I surprised that she didn't mention the fact that she is now under investigation by the FBI? No. 

And while I'd love to think something will come out of this, I don't believe anything will simply because I see FBI Director James Comey as being as crooked as she is. I base my opinion on his refusal to recommend the she prosecuted for breaches of National Security, breaking Federal laws pertaining to the use and security of Classified and Top Secret information, and of course lying during testimony regard this.

I really believe that Comey is covering for her. Whether he was bribed or simply supports her for president, I believe Comey should have allowed prosecution of Clinton for crimes that all of us would have gone to jail for committing. But as we know, he didn't.

So where does this go from here? While I'd like to see her in prison, I really don't think this is going anywhere simply because Obama and his administration is going to cover for her. And let's face facts, Democrats, especially politically powerful Democrats, are not prosecuted like Republicans are. 

There is a double-standard that absolutely stinks. The double-standard that I'm talking about is one that we see on a daily basis. It is the reason that Hillary Clinton is not on trial or in prison, but instead is running for president.

And yes, that's just the way I see it.
