Hillary Lost Six Billion Dollars When She Ran The State Department.
"Lost"
"... the failure to adequately maintain contract files — documents necessary to ensure the full accounting of U.S. tax dollars — “creates significant financial risk and demonstrates a lack of internal control over the Department’s contract actions.”
Sounds Like People Got Paid Off With My Tax Dollars To Me...
Salon Mocks MSNBC for Doing 455 Stormy Daniels Segments in Past Year
Although I knew there was extreme MSNBC over-reporting about Stormy Daniels, even I was quite surprised at the high amount of coverage quantified in the Salon story title, "MSNBC has done 455 Stormy Daniels segments in the last year — but none on U.S. war in Yemen."
July 3, 2017, to July 3, 2018, MSNBC dedicated zero segments to the U.S. war in Yemen, but 455 segments to Stormy Daniels. This isn’t to suggest the Stormy Daniels matter isn’t newsworthy — presidential corruption is per se important. But one has to wonder if this particular thread of venality is 455 stories more important than...
CNN GOT COHENED: TRUMP WASN’T THE ONLY ONE COHEN RECORDED, HE RECORDED SOMEONE AT CNN TOO
First, let me give you some of the backstory. This week Cohen provided the tape to CNN. Then on Tuesday evening CNN talking head Chris Cuomo played the tape in full during that day’s broadcast of “Cuomo Prime Time.”
Full audio: Presidential candidate Trump is heard on tape discussing with his attorney Michael Cohen how they would buy the rights to a Playboy model's story about an alleged affair Trump had with her years earlier, according to the audio recording
Oooooooh, exciting. NOT!
What makes this story interesting is a report confirming that the president wasn’t the only individual to be recorded by Cohen. It turns out that Cuomo himself was once recorded without his knowledge.
Via The Wall Street Journal:
But it gets even better. During the interview, Cohen assured Cuomo “that he wasn’t running a tape, according to the people familiar with the matter. He told Mr. Cuomo he was placing the phone in his desk drawer and that the conversation was off the record. The phone appeared to record the entire conversation, the people said.”
The irony of this was not lost on the denizens of social media:
Not that this information changes anything on the ground (there’s reportedly nothing damaging/incriminating in the Cuomo tape), but it’s funny nonetheless.
Michael Cohen recorded a conversation he had with a reporter this year in which he said he arranged “on my own” a $130,000 payment in 2016 to a former adult-film star who alleged an affair with Donald Trump, according to people familiar with the matter.
In the nearly two-hour conversation with CNN reporter Chris Cuomo, which the people said appears to have been surreptitiously recorded by Mr. Cohen, the former Trump lawyer discussed at length the payment he arranged in October 2016, a month before the presidential election, to Stephanie Clifford, known professionally as Stormy Daniels.
But it gets even better. During the interview, Cohen assured Cuomo “that he wasn’t running a tape, according to the people familiar with the matter. He told Mr. Cuomo he was placing the phone in his desk drawer and that the conversation was off the record. The phone appeared to record the entire conversation, the people said.”
The irony of this was not lost on the denizens of social media:
