Hillary was never 'the smartest woman

Remember back when Bill Clinton was President and Hillary was his co-president? Back then the ever-slavish media regularly referred to her as “the smartest woman in the room"? That was never true. Not even close. She was never a feminist heroine because she “was no Tammy Wynette” and did not “stay home and bake cookies and stand by her man.” She was always just a mean, bitter, unattractive woman with narcissistic delusions of her own abilities. And after all the intervening years, when she was Obama’s Secretary of State (a pity appointment because she lost the election to him – better to keep her inside the tent),

Never the smartest, but certainly the most evil. I hope she got a good price for her soul.

Think about how bitter, miserable, unloved and unfulfilled this creature is. And smile. Even by the relaxed standards applied to Democrats in general, Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama are the most laughingly overrated so-called “intellects” in American political history.

Congratulations, Patricia! You get the "Captain Obvious" award of the day with that headline! I tried listening to one Hillary's speeches once. It made zero sense. I really wanted to ask some liberals, "What the HELL did all that gibberish mean?" just to see what they said. But I suspect it would have been akin to asking adults whether the emperor really had clothes on.

Whjat was the point the writer was trying to get at? That Hill was evil? Nasty? okay, I agree. What I got from it was that our election system is a disaster. Not just the machines/ ballots, and so on, but the production of candidates. We did pretty well with Eisenhower and okay Kennedy (I know, I know - but for his love for the country and belief in its greatness) then what? Nixon he open the door for the communist Chinese. Ford - placeholder. Reagan and Trump. Four out of ten. Not good. With Trump you have the right hand of God (no one could go what he has done in 6 months.) We can work out the "bugs" in the election process, But the candidate issue is troubling. Seeing candidates like Hill, Kamala, Biden, Obama (or whatever name he is using these days. What name will he use for the divorce?). To many close calls. This article could swap out the names. We now have the greatest means of communication there must be a means to harness that power in selecting the best person for the job. I think President Trump has shown that for the presidency we need a strong executive. We are getting career politicians. I don't see to much hope in any of them.

Hillary has always been cruel, vindictive, mean, hateful and corrupt. She will stop at nothing for power and has avoided any consequence going back as far as Arkansas. She is not smart enough to know that the lies she claims as truth can easily be disapproved. We have the internet, and she failed the bar exam. She is most unlikeable, and I wish she would go away.

-Reading the article, it occurred to me that the HildeBeast missed her calling. She should have been the main villainess in a soap opera, rather than one of the people in a position of power in the national government. She would not have to have invented a character, she could just be herself. -It seems to me that there has been a pattern, ever since I became aware of politics in the early 1960's. Each Democ'Rat president has been worse than the one before. JFKennedy, Lyin' Lyndon Johnson, 'Jimmah', the HornDog, Zero, and the HairSniffer. I think that much of this is due to the Leftists establishing a monopoly on the Lamesgtream media... ABC/NBC/CBS/CNN/MSNBC/NYSlymes/WaPooPoo, etc. Hopefully with the rise of alternative media, this Wall of Lies has enough holes in it that most Americans will see, hear and recognize the truth, and vote accordingly. -#13, Winston Churchill once said that "Democracy is the worst form of government ever invented,,,,,, except for all the others that have been tried, from time to time, down through the ages." -I used to think that the HildeBeast had hit bottom, that she had done the very meanest, most corrupt, evil thing possible. She would then surprise me by doing something even worse. I finally came to the conclusion that there is no bottom, that the HildeBeast is forever sinking lower and lower in a bottomless pit of stinking ooze. -The only bright side of this is that the HornDog is stuck with her for life, as a person cannot be compelled to testify against their spouse. That's HIS punishment for the evil he did to our beloved America.

Since most American children never learn History anymore, they aren't aware that Hillary Rodham Clinton was removed from the Watergate Investigation. -" As a 27 year-old staff attorney for the House Judiciary Committee during the Watergate investigation, Hillary Rodham was fired by her supervisor, Democrat Jerry Zeifman. When asked why Hillary Rodham was fired, Zeifman said in an interview, "Because she was a liar. She was an unethical, dishonest lawyer, she conspired to violate the Constitution, the rules of the House, the rules of the Committee, and the rules of confidentiality."

On his radio show this morning, Chris Plante played some audio of Bill mouthing off on one of those late night shows. I didn’t catch which one it was. Bill sounds very frail and maybe even a bit demented. There were long pauses as he was answering questions, which reminded me very much of Pedo Joe. Maybe all that coke and the weed that he didn’t inhale are finally catching up with his brain. Or maybe it’s the result of all these years married to his harridan wife.

Mizzuz Clinton's campaign "strategists"-- that is, paid decievers--- cooked up the line that she is the world's smartest woman. That was in the phony package that they presented to the world. Reality is that she is no smarter than the next man or woman in the population. The paid decevers would also have you believe that she is kind and personable and has a sense of humor, none of that true. The word that best describes her is "mean." Why can't politicans present themselves to voters as they truly are? Why do we get a phony image created by a paid deceiver?

Mamdani Declares: Billionaires Have No

New York City’s wealthy elite and business leaders are sounding the alarm after Democrat mayoral nominee Zohran Mamdani secured a spot on the 2026 ballot. The reason? Mamdani is a self-proclaimed socialist who openly argues that billionaires shouldn’t exist. He champions radical policies, such as government-run grocery stores, free housing, and universal healthcare—ideas that would expand state control and increase public dependency. Now, with Mamdani on the rise, the city is bracing for a potential “exodus of billionaires” and a chilling effect on investment and economic growth.

On Christmas Day in 1989, the people of Romania held a long-awaited ceremony that was more joyous than any Nativity had been in decades. They held a spontaneous trial of President Nicolae Ceaușescu and his wife Elena, found them guilty of capital crimes against the Romanian people, and sentenced them to death. There was no shortage of volunteers for the firing squad, and those lucky enough to be chosen didn’t wait for the order to fire: they riddled the Ceaușescu’s bodies with more than one hundred bullets. The story of how the dictatorial couple met their end has important lessons for those wondering about the fate of today’s Iranian

The United States will halt its contributions to Gavi, the global alliance that works to expand access to vaccines for children in some of the world’s poorest countries, said Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Wednesday — a move that public health experts said would have deadly consequences.

Operation Midnight Hammer was a resounding success. It crippled Iran’s nuclear capabilities. It’s now a fact. With Israel securing total air supremacy, the odds of this being a successful military operation were significantly high. Our B-2 Bomber fleet carried out its run, delivered its target packages, and left. The Democrats’ reaction has been revolting or bordering on treasonous. Some sound as if they’re upset Iran, the world’s largest state sponsor of terrorism, lost its capacity to build nukes. Isn’t that what we all wanted?

This is a fair question from Matt Continetti, who recites some of the relevant quotations before posing it. I'll add to the list. President Bill Clinton described a nuclearlzed Iran as intolerable and signed the Iran Nonproliferation Act of 2000, "which authorize[d] him to take punitive action against individuals or organizations known to be providing material aid to weapons of mass destruction (WMD) programs in Iran." President George W. Bush intoned in 2008 that "permitting the world’s leading sponsor of terror to possess the world’s deadliest weapon would be an unforgivable betrayal of future generations."

June 17, 2025, the recent 53rd anniversary of the Watergate break-in, should remind us of the scandal’s scurrilous aftermath. What was promised to be a new millennium of aggressive, yet punctilious, journalism turned out to be a continuation of the Washington Post‘s reckless, essentially untruthful, Watergate reporting, clearly biased in favor of Democrats. While Republicans in the wake of Watergate vowed to be beyond reproach, like Caesar’s wife, they were indeed generally rectitudinous but yet continued the same stupidity that ruined the Nixon administration. Because neither side addressed these failures, they persist today.

Untergang (Downfall, 2004) is a movie about the last days of the Hitler regime, including Hitler's nine-millimeter-and-cyanide honeymoon with Eva Braun. We are now looking at the final days of Iran's theocracy, which is likely to collapse by the end of the week; one week after Israel began military action. It is well known from history that, when a country's leaders flee the battlefield, the war is over for them. At Gaugamela in 331 B.C.E., the massive Persian army collapsed when King Darius turned his chariot to run from Alexander the Great, who was personally trying to kill him.

It was supposed to be economic Armageddon. That, at least, was the loud warning from academics, pundits, and many in the financial press. Tariffs, they said, would torch the American consumer, spike inflation, and crater confidence. Especially those tariffs President Donald Trump instituted on April 2 — Liberation Day. Instead, something else happened: nothing of the sort. Far from igniting the inflationary firestorm predicted by his critics, Trump’s sweeping tariffs — including a 10% universal import duty and targeted hikes on 90 nations — have coincided with the lowest inflation rate since early 2021. In a striking reversal of the narrative pushed by many economists,

Girls don’t usually fight. There are sound reasons for this – reasons of general decorum, biology, hormones, jewelry, dresses and hairdos. But when they do, boy oh boy, it can be a doozy. It happened yesterday at the Supreme Court. The case was an appeal of a district court order issuing a “universal injunction” against President Trump’s executive order seeking to abolish “birthright citizenship.” Birthright citizenship is the kind you get if you’re born in America even if your parents are here illegally. The 14th Amendment seems to provide for it, although there is a non-frivolous argument that it does not.

Usually the liberal rag is little more than a mouthpiece for the DNC, so to see them go after a Democrat this hard is a stunner and reveals two things:

President Donald Trump’s “big, beautiful bill” cleared a key procedural hurdle in the U.S. Senate late Saturday night, pushing the massive spending package one step closer to the president’s desk. The vote on a motion to proceed to final debate on the bill passed with 51 yeas and 49 nays. Every Democrat and two Republicans, Sens. Thom Tillis, N.C., and Rand Paul, Ky., voted against it. The actual voting took hours and the measure only passed after three Republican holdouts — Sens. Mike Lee of Utah, Rick Scott of Florida and Cynthia Lummus of Wyoming — folded and voted yes.
