Clinton Foundation must be floundering ... she has to make some noise to get some donations (like she still has some clout)
If I was a betting man ... she is scared
Every negative and untrue thing she says about somebody else can be said about her in real life.
*** “Trump must get re-elected in November, or else the coup plotters win. they are pure evil” ***
We need the Congress and Senate onboard as well
(not to mention the FBI and CIA Cleaned up ... still waiting for those Whistle Blowers)
a final word on EU and China (with a vote for Biden being a vote for China).
also note New Zealand not in the Five Eyes group condemning China. comments are all pro-Beijing:
29 May: Yahoo Singapore: EU not in mood to follow Donald Trump into China conflict over Hong Kong national security law
by Stuart Lau, South China Morning Post
This story is jointly produced by the ***South China Morning Post and ***POLITICO, with reporting from Brussels, Paris and Hong Kong
The US, Canada, Australia and Britain condemned Beijing’s step, hailing Hong Kong as a “bastion of freedom,” while Britain held open the prospect of citizenship for more Hongkongers if Beijing presses ahead.
But despite growing tensions over the former British colony, German Chancellor Angela Merkel, Europe’s most powerful politician, insisted she still wants the European Union to reach a landmark investment agreement with China this year...
EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell said he had “deep concern” about Thursday’s move. He has previously insisted Brussels “attaches great importance to the preservation of Hong Kong’s high degree of autonomy,” but said this week he did not think “sanctions against China are going to be a solution for our problems”...
Merkel also said the EU, the world’s biggest trade bloc, needed to maintain a “critical and constructive” dialogue, with trade retaliation not on the agenda when European foreign ministers meet on Friday.
“Sanctions are not on the table, our relations with the Chinese are simply too important,” one senior EU diplomat said...
But the key issue is whether China’s power grab in Hong Kong will weigh on the EU’s investment agreement with China.
Germany wants the deal to be concluded at an EU-China summit in the German city of Leipzig in September, although the agreement was already in trouble even before the latest flare-up in Hong Kong.
Michael Clauss, Germany’s ambassador to the EU and a former ambassador to China, admitted earlier this month that talks were stuck over market access rights for European companies...
Joerg Wuttke, president of the European Chamber of Commerce in Beijing, has also since warned that events in Hong Kong could undermine China’s diplomatic standing.
“This could seriously affect ongoing negotiations between the EU and China on a variety of critical areas such as the comprehensive agreement on investment and on issues of common concern like ***climate change,” he said.
It would, though, require a major political shift for Europe to reverse away from the investment agreement. The EU officials in charge of the investment agreement negotiations with China were not given the mandate to include Hong Kong’s human rights issues, according to three European Union diplomats who spoke on condition of anonymity. European parliamentarians could change this, however, one of the diplomats said...

Hello,
Your posts are very interesting but they really deserve their own stand-alone thread. They’re long enough for that.
Or were regular passengers on the Lolita Express.
Ernest Hemingway had rocks thrown at him in Arkansas—a bum.
I’ll say.
Good one.

ya might want to cut back on the amount of content ...
Love that you are very passionate but the cut and paste is not very efficient (nobody is going to read it) I didn’t
Thanks for your response

Track her all the way back to her time at Wellesy where she became a radical. She has been a very bad person for a very long time.
She got connected to a Leftist Priest I believe it was.
That was in her last days of high school.
Before that she had actually been a Goldwater Girl.
He really did a number on her.
I don’t listen to people who pout constantly over having lost an election and who flunked the DC Bar exam.
I wonder if the Secret Service would have made this a skill requirement by now if she had been President?
;-)
Shut up Hillary.
