Wikileaks: ‘Anti-SJW’ Heat Street Founder Louise Mensch Pitched Ad Script to HRC Campaign (t)
Breitbart ^ | 13 Oct 2016 | Liam Deacon

Posted on 10/13/2016 8:51:10 AM PDT by oblomov

Former British Conservative Party Member of Parliament and “right wing” blogger Louise Mensch privately tried to assist the Hillary Clinton campaign, emails published by Wikileaks reveal.

Mrs. Mensch runs the Rupert Murdoch-backed blog Heat Street, which claims to stand against identity politics and what it labels “social justice warriors” under the slogan “no safe spaces.”

However, its editor in chief, Mrs. Mensch, was caught writing a campaign advertisement script for the Democratic candidate – a woman who has traded off identity politics and social justice warrior politics. The ad appears to be based on the idea that Mrs. Clinton should be in office simply because she is female and is supported by “multiracial” women.

“… much rather have your girl Hillary,” Mrs. Mensch wrote in an email to Michael Kives of Creative Arts Agency (CAA), a former Clinton campaign advocate.

She said Hillary’s “intelligence [is] beyond doubt” but argued she “is not capitalizing on the yearning that we have to see a woman as President,” before scripting the campaign ad named “OUR TIME.”

A succession of mostly young women, a few old women, one with a baby daughter, multiracial and multi-occupation, to include a nurse and a woman in uniform of some kind where permitted…

one after the other, smiling and looking to camera and saying ‘It’s our time.’

and the last woman says, ‘It’s our time. I’m with her.’

fade to banner credit ‘Hillary 2016’

“That would be inspirational, aspirational, and the kind of riff you really need on ‘Yes we can’,” concluded Mrs. Mensch.

Her e-mail was forwarded by Mr. Kives to the Hillary Clinton campaign, as well campaign chairman John Podesta.

They're in the wire...

Wouldn't be surprised to see NR and Weekly Standard "conservatives" advising the HRC campaign as well.

You can go back to the primary period and see where the Weekly Standard threw various slam-pieces against Trump. I quit them back in November of last year and probably won’t ever go back.

“Our Time” is an over-50 online dating service.

Perfect way to bring attention to her advanced years. Probably smart that they didn’t go with it.

We kicked these people out 200 years ago and it seems they’re back worse than ever. With the exception of Nigel, send them home now!

Yep. This lady and the former Romney/Bush aid giving anti-Trump Clinton campaign talking points to journalists on twitter. We’ve got solid proof now.

I heard one of the Weekly Standard guys on Fox. I literally thought he was a Democrat talking head until they put up his name and Weekly Standard affiliation. Apparently, he really is.

On Twitter she refers to herself as a former Conservative British MP.

Talk about foreign influence!

Where’s the outrage?

But now we now know who came up with the narcissistic, self-referential “I’m With Her” slogan!!

I think the Weekly Standard was just a gimmick devised by lobbyist to jerk people around and get them hyped up on fake agendas or fake “fights”. If you go back....it started in 1995. If you review the profit data....it’s never made an actual profit and in most years....it lost in excess of a million-a-year, which would trigger you to ask who is fronting a losing operation like this. Four years ago....they were barely sustaining 105,000 copies a month, which kinda lays out the non-profit status of the operation.

After the third posting of the bogus Trump pulling out of Virginia story I was going to say the same thing about FR.

We brought them back in the Wilson Administration. Woody was a complete Anglophile and globalist. In the 1920s British Intelligence helped found the CFR, which was the precursor to the CIA. With the start of the CIA in 1948, the British Shadow Government was in place.

Mrs. Mensch is no “mensch” (i.e. a gentleman, honorable person, well behaved). She’s more like a chameleon schmeckle.

Yeah, I’ve thought the same for a while. The chattering class “conservatives” are nothing more than mouthpieces for their big donors. It’s their meal ticket. Nothing more. No principle or genuine conservatism involved.
