Water-cooler chit-chat about Hillary and "G"
Well, I've been a long time gone, but Guccifer 2.0 is at it again, so I'll say what I saw this evening, besides watching MsGrin's vids ...
First, Guccifer 2.0 had released more docs from the DNC, at his website and, apparently, at a conference in London. I'm not sure how he released documents at a conference in London, so I'm just assuming (I could be wrong) that the conference just downloaded the docs and discussed them.
Which, after seeing a Forbes article about the conference, is more or less true. "Democrat Hacker Guccifer 2.0 'Appears' At London Show -- Here's What Was Said"
Guccifer 2.0, the hacker who took responsibility for stealing data from the Democratic National Committee (DNC) and the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC), was listed on the lineup for an otherwise typical cybersecurity conference in London today. But he or she wasn’t talking, but instead provided materials to an individual who spoke on behalf of the troublemaker. A public Twitter message indicated Guccifer’s “speech” was legitimate, making this the first conference where the hacker has “spoken”.
The article has a full transcript of what G "said" at the conference, worth glancing at (in sum, he rips into corporations, tech firms, Twitter, the government, etc. ...)
Guccifer 2.0 just released 600MB of new internal DNC documents at a conference in London.

If you go to that website listed on the screen in the image to download docs, please use protection! And note that the password includes the parenthesis characters. I did't bother and I just read what other reddit users write in the comments, which the user credits to 4chan, (that links to a "fun" discussion) and it seems there is info about how much it costs to buy an Ambassador position -- meaning how much you have to donate to the Clinton Foundation to be appointed Ambassador to different countries.
Here's my updated list, starting with #1 (top donor) working their way down. Starting to see the pattern?
1 Matthew Berzun … Ambassador to UK2 Julius Genachowski … Former chairman to FCC
3 Frank Sanchez…. Under secretary of commerce
8 Kirk Wagner… Ambassador to Singapore
9 Alan Solomont … Ambassador to Spain
11 John Roos… Ambassador to Japan
12 Nicole Avant… Ambassador to Bahamas ... (link to comments again)
So then I see an incredulous thread at reddit, "She didn't just tweet this," about HRC tweeting out this:
Of course, those comments are everybody talking about the transparent hypocrisy.
Yeah, that's the obvious "deny, deflect" tactic since the docs flowing from G plainly show that she was selling Ambassadorships ... So HRC is gonna scream 'look at Trump, look at Trump,' about some measly donation he made to the individual prosecuting the case against Trump U, which was dismissed, and Trump paid a small fine in regards to the improper donation.
It doesn't even dawn on Hillary that she just tweeted out that you have to be a politician to improperly dole out favors! Look in the mirror, lady! And Trump, you got to be in the government to play the pay-to-play game, so your piddly donations, and fines, are just embarrassing, get your act together boy.
Anyway, that's the chit chat I saw this evening, sorry for any messy code or formatting. G'night.

She's said a variety of things as absurd this year
...that's an especially good one!
Thanks for the hat tip.

Especially after Trump
Especially after Trump pointing out that the Clintons came running to attend his wedding, since he'd donated to... gee, shucks, who the heck was that he'd donated to?
Psychopathy is not a political position, whether labeled 'conservatism', 'centrism' or 'left'.
A tin labeled 'coffee' may be a can of worms or pathology identified by a lack of empathy/willingness to harm others to achieve personal desires.
The early bird might get the worm.
4chan?
My old Mac is pretty secure, maybe even more secure that the Clinton's basement server, but I'll leave it to those with the super-duper computer protection programs to check this stuff out.
I can wait a little while.
judging from your photo, I'd agree ;-)
"... I'll leave it to those with the super-duper computer protection programs to check this stuff out"
OMG, the hubris of her campaign is amazing
And Trump told the country that he expects favors after he gives someone a donation. And that he gave the Clinton foundation $100,000. I wonder what he got in return?
By the way, how did Bondi get elected as AG? She doesn't look old enough to have enough experience for the job.
Thanks, GreyWolf for this.
Which AIPAC/MIC/pharma/bank bought politician are you going to vote for? Don’t be surprised when nothing changes.
About Pam Bondi
She's a bit older than she appears to be. She's actually 50 years old and was already an accomplished prosecutor (for better or for worse) before she ran.
Bondi won her first race for AG back in 2010 in a hotly contested 3 person Republican primary. When she got to the general, it was an easy win for her since she did what every Republican in the 2010 Shellacking: Cater to the holy rollers, cater to the homophobes, run hard against Obama (which was easy back then), and cater to the elderly (who always vote, and have extra power in off-year elections). She ran against Dan Gelber in the general, a Dem state senator that who was likable, had no real chance. She won again in 2014 against George Sheldon, who did better than Gelber, but couldn't take her down.
Hillary must be trying to lose this election
The absurdity for her to call out Trump on pay-to-play! Chutzpah in the first degree. Does she thing that she's fooling anybody except HillBots?
Leave her alone!
She's sick! Chatlotte probably stole her blackberry & tweeted that! Her blackberry was hacked by the Russians! /s
The Great Argus Pheasant has this to say
about this latest talking point:

"More for Gore or the son of a drug lord--None of the above, fuck it, cut the cord."

Most significant is that there has been no screaming refutation
The first DNC hack, no complaining about fake, no we had to go all 'Russia did it'. Inserting faked up documents could be quite easy. But no one said they were fake.
Hey! my dear friends or soon-to-be's, JtC could use the donations to keep this site functioning for those of us who can still see the life preserver or flotsam in the water.
Maybe they are too busy
Figuring out how to get Hillary upright again.
