Hillary routinely bullied her bodyguards
2016-10-26
[NATIONALREVIEW] Hillary Clinton
... sometimes described as America's Blond Eminence and at other times as Mrs. Bill, never as Another Timothy Pickering ...
’s "treatment of DS [Department of State] agents on her protective detail was so contemptuous that many of them sought reassignment or employment elsewhere," according to a just-released summary of an FBI interview with a former State Department official.

“Prior to CLINTON’s tenure, being an agent on the Secretary of State’s protective detail was seen as an honor and privilege reserved for senior agents. However, by the end of CLINTON’s tenure, it was staffed largely with new agents because it was difficult to find senior agents willing to work for her.”

Clinton’s State Department agents are hardly the first to complain about her bullying.

“She derives pleasure from lording over other people who cannot do anything about it and who are less powerful than she is,” author Ronald Kessler told Newsmax TV’s J. D. Hayworth. In fact, Clinton’s well-documented history of profane, unhinged outbursts against those who work for her spans decades."
My wife used to work with a retired Secret Service agent in the late '90's, while Bill was still prez. He described her the same way then.

#6  I have a friend who recently retired from the Secret Service. I asked him if he had ever had to work with Hillary. He got a disgusted look on his face and said "I can deal with tough cookies. That woman is a tough bitch."

#5  A few emperors were stupid enough to really fuck the guard over. Most of the later ones that fell to the guard didn't pay them as much as the guy who wanted the throne.

#3  You know, it only takes a second or two to look away when something nasty comes your way and the problem is settled.

Screwing with the Praetorian Guard doesn't have a good record of consequences for other rulers in history.

Then again 'good old' Marxist view of history seems stuck in the old industrial revolution period.

Please convey my sympathies to your wife.

#1  What amazes me is that this woman eats with that same mouth. Hillary, Obama, Biden, Ksine, and Moochel are parading around accusing Trump of using foul language. Why, they even tell us we have to hide the children so they don't hear this kind of language. As I recall Biden was caught saying to Obama the following when the "Affordable" care act was shoved down our throats: "the vice president turned to the president and said, as he embraced Obama, "This is a big fucking deal." Moreover, Obama and Michelle recently invited to the White House some of the most thuggish, violent, foul-mouthed rappers/hip hopper artists(?) who preach misogymy and violence against the police. C'mon gimme a break from these phony, hypocritical bullshit artists who try to sell us their faux outraged indignation.

Is it not far worse that Hillary was FLOTUS/co-POTUS when the government of the Clintons and another corrupted attorney general (Janet Reno) killed the Branch Davidians (a splinter group of the 7th-Day Adventists) during the Waco Massacre after a 51-day siege where a total of 82 civilians, mostly women, children and the elderly–half of them people of color were murdered? Recall that a year earlier, the mother and child who were shot and killed at Ruby Ridge by FBI snipers? Another Clinton administration will not be the friend of American any more than it was during the first Clinton administration. The millennials and women (the I'm With Her crowd) who are likely to vote for Hillary probably do not know about these events. Do you think you would be treated any differently than the Branch Davidians or Randy Weaver at Ruby Ridge (Randy Weaver, a former Iowa factory worker and U.S. Army combat engineer, moved with his family to northern Idaho during the 1980s in order to "home-school his children and escape what he and his wife Vicki saw as a corrupted world." if it suited a Hillary administration? Do you feel lucky or special?
