Former president Bill Clinton will be named in the Jeffrey Epstein court documents set to be unsealed this coming week. Bill Clinton was good friends with Epstein and traveled on his private jet dubbed ‘Lolita Express’ over two dozen times and according to pilot logs, underage teenagers were on the flights with Clinton. Earlier this month, it was reported that dozens of Jeffrey Epstein’s high-profile associates are in for a New Year’s surprise as they may be named in court documents set to be released in the first days of 2024. Harvard law professor Alan Dershowitz, who previously called for...

Flight logs of Palm Beach billionaire sex offender Jeffrey Epstein's private jet show attorney Alan Dershowitz flew on it at least four times. Those logs are contained in nearly 200 pages of documents filed in a defamation lawsuit against Dershowitz in Broward County Circuit Court, as reported in Friday's Palm Beach Daily News. Attorneys Brad Edwards and Paul Cassell, who represent some of Epstein's underage victims, filed the lawsuit in January following Dershowitz's media campaign against them. The Harvard law professor emeritus was fighting claims by their client - Virginia Roberts Giuffre - that she had sex with Dershowitz at...

The ultimate page turner? Fourteen years after her affair with Bill Clinton nearly led to the premature end of his Presidency, Monica Lewinsky will reveal all of the shocking, nitty-gritty details of their infamous relationship in a tell-all -- one she was paid $12 million for, the New York Post reports. Sources told the paper that the former White House intern, 39, will share love letters that she wrote Clinton, 66. "In them, she opened her heart about her love for Bill and how much happier she could make him," an insider is quoted as saying. "Some of what she...

John Edwards. There, I said it. I guess it's too late to be dramatic, now that Edwards has talked to a MSM outlet (ABC) about his affair. I really meant to say something earlier, when almost every daily newspaper, including The Chronicle, was not touching a story broken by, gasp, the National Enquirer, but I was tied up. Most MSM in general had stayed away, picking at it with their noses held, as if looking for something valuable in a moldy dumpster. Of course the New York (City) Times said they were "looking into it" but certainly not printing a...

Hillary Clinton officially declared she's not a lesbian - not that there's anything wrong with that. During an interview with The Advocate to be published next week, Sean Kennedy, the gay magazine's news and features editor, asked the presidential candidate, "How do you respond to the occasional rumor that you're a lesbian?" "People say a lot of things about me, so I really don't pay any attention to it," Sen. Clinton (D-N.Y.) replied. "It's not true, but it is something that I have no control over. People will say what they want to say." Kennedy told the Daily News he's...

When former President Bill Clinton and Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton took a family vacation in January 2002 to Acapulco, Mexico, one of their longtime supporters, Vinod Gupta, provided his company’s private jet to fly them there. The company, infoUSA, one of the nation’s largest brokers of information on consumers, paid $146,866 to ferry the Clintons, Mr. Gupta and others to Acapulco and back, court records show. During the next four years, infoUSA paid Mr. Clinton more than $2 million for consulting services, and spent almost $900,000 to fly him around the world for his presidential foundation work and to fly...

As potential girlfriends go, Belinda Stronach would rank as a true catch. She is single, youngish (she just turned 40), attractive, wealthy, impeccably well-connected and politically ambitious - glamorous in every respect. Two years ago, Time magazine listed her as one of the 100 most powerful people on the planet. The tabloids cut to the chase: they called her the "blonde bombshell" or "Bubba's blonde." Bubba, of course, is Bill Clinton. He has been photographed with Stronach (right) several times. The sightings seem to be getting more frequent, leading to press speculation that their relationship has moved beyond official "friendship"...

Clinton urges Dems to question criticism By PHILIP ELLIOTT, Associated Press Writer1 hour, 12 minutes ago Former President Clinton bemoaned ideologues who describe opponents as "running for office on his or her way to hell" and urged Democrats not to shy from fighting back. Clinton, criticizing Republicans weeks before the midterm elections, told an audience at Georgetown University on Wednesday that intellectual debate should trump partisan rancor and either-or choices are false. "Most of us long for politics where we have genuine arguments, vigorous disagreements but we don't claim to have the whole truth and we don't demonize our opponents...

Each of you has undoubtedly seen the clips of Bill Clinton bushwhacking Chris Wallace in a Fox News interview last Sunday. Claiming that his interlocutor was doing “the bidding of the right wing,” Clinton lectured Wallace with the same finger-wagging intensity he unleashed on the American people back in 1998. Clinton’s now-famous Lewinsky lie makes for an instructive comparison because it reminds us that this man, this former U.S. president, is a peerless prevaricator. “Clinton’s an unusually good liar,” said former Democrat Senator and Medal of Honor recipient Bob Kerrey. “Unusually good.” Indeed. Even the New York Times once lamented...

Talk about deja vu all over again. There was something awfully familiar about Bill Clinton's hissy fit on Fox News last Sunday. What was it, exactly? The finger-pointing? The raised voice? The way he kept interrupting his interviewer? The mounting furor that threatened to reach red-in-the-face levels despite the pancake makeup? The attribution of base motives to a reporter who'd dared question him about something he'd done? Or, in this case, what he hadn't done to prevent a terrorist attack on this country. It was an operatic performance. All the Sturm und Drang was there, if not the art. But...

It's just like old times. Bill Clinton delivers an impassioned speech, and within 24 hours the Web is bristling with documentation, establishing that nearly every sentence was a lie. The glassy-eyed Clinton cultists are insisting their idol's on-air breakdown during a "Fox News Sunday" interview with Chris Wallace was a calculated performance, which is a bit like describing Hurricane Katrina as a "planned demolition." Like an Osama tape, they claim he was sending a signal to Democrats to show them how to treat Republicans. Listen up, Democrats: Let's energize the undecideds by throwing a hissy fit on national television! The...

Fool Me Once Bill Clinton – But Don’t Wag Your Finger at Me Again Politics Joan Swirsky September 26, 2006 One of the 20th Century’s most enduring images was of Bill Clinton standing at a White House podium and responding to a reporter’s question about his affair with Monica Lewinsky with a crimson face, his neck veins on the verge of exploding, and his finger wagging furiously like an old schoolmarm’s, as he told the entire Congress, nation and world: “I did not have sex with that woman!” For nearly a year, and through depositions under oath, Clinton maintained...

I am at a loss for words

You did Fox's bidding on this show. You did your nice little conservative hit job on me. . . . You set this meeting up because you were going to get a lot of criticism from your viewers because Rupert Murdoch is supporting my work on climate change. And you came here under false pretenses and said that you'd spend half the time talking about . . . what we did out there to raise $7 billion-plus over three days from 215 different commitments. And you don't care.

<p>FORMER PRESIDENT BILL CLINTON ON NOT CAPTURING BIN LADEN: 'At least I tried. That's the difference between me and some, including all the right wingers. They ridicule me for trying. They had eight months to try, they did not try. I tried. So I tried and failed'...</p>

Channel surfing and Chrissy Matthews mentioned that Tim Russert is going to "interview" Bill Clinton this Sunday after the Ryder Cup coverage(which is happening in Ireland) at 1:00 PM EDT this Sunday. Gee I wonder if Timmy will be more pleasurable to be around in Bill Clinton's mind than Monica. The answer is probably yes.

Former President Clinton said Thursday the U.S. should try talking to Iran about its nuclear weapons ambitions without imposing a lot of conditions. "If you think you might have trouble with somebody, and God forbid if you think it could lead to a military confrontation, then there needs to be the maximum amount of contact beforehand," Clinton said in an interview with NBC's "Today" show. The Bush administration has refused to hold direct talks with Iran until it agrees to suspend enrichment of uranium, which the U.S. fears will be used to build nuclear weapons. "The United States should not...

Bill Clinton warns against wide torture approval By Randall Mikkelsen 7 minutes ago Former U.S. President Bill Clinton joined a chorus of critics of Bush administration proposals for treating suspected terrorists, saying it would be unnecessary and wrong to give broad approval to torture. In an interview with National Public Radio aired on Thursday, Clinton said any decision to use harsh treatment in interrogating suspects should be subject to court review. "You don't need blanket advance approval for blanket torture," Clinton said. Clinton was president during the 1993 World Trade Center bombing and attacks on U.S. embassies in Tanzania and...

September 11, 2006, 8:15 a.m. The Facts About Clinton and Terrorism You don’t need a movie to see his failures. By Byron York Editor’s note: When it comes to Bill Clinton’s record on terrorism, there’s no need to invent fictional scenarios to show how ineffective he was; the truth is bad enough. A few months after 9/11, Byron York went through the record — including the former president’s habit of taking polls to see how he should respond to terrorist attacks — and came up with this report, from the December 17, 2001 issue of National Review: June 25, 1996,...
