[Nat Review] E-mails ordered released Wednesday could contain evidence that Clinton kept a secret, off-the-books schedule of meetings with foreign foundation donors as secretary of state.
federal judge on Wednesday ordered the State Department to produce the e-mail records of Hillary Clinton’s scheduler during her tenure as secretary of state, expanding an investigation being pursued by conservative nonprofit Citizens United into the overlap between Clinton’s official travel and her meetings with foreign Clinton Foundation donors.
Citizens United is slated to receive all e-mails sent to and from Lona Valmoro, Clinton’s State Department scheduler, in the two-week periods before each of 14 international trips Clinton took during her four years in office. David Bossie, president of Citizens United, hopes to confirm suspicions that Clinton maintained an off-the-books schedule, meeting with Clinton Foundation donors on the taxpayer’s dime.
"Citizens United wants to know how many overseas dinners Secretary Clinton attended with Clinton Foundation donors that didn’t make it on her schedule," he says. Judge Rosemary Collyer, the federal judge presiding over a public-records case brought by Citizens United, was initially hesitant to allow the release of Valmoro’s e-mails, and asked the group to provide one example of an off-the-books meeting with Clinton Foundation donors.
As part of a joint filing with the State Department on Monday, Citizens United presented the judge with several pieces of evidence suggesting Valmoro deliberately struck from the official schedule a December 6, 2012, dinner in Dublin, Ireland, with several Clinton Foundation and Clinton campaign donors, organized by Teneo co-founder Declan Kelly. Though Valmoro was made aware of the Dublin meeting through an earlier e-mail chain, neither Clinton’s archived daily calendar nor her detailed official schedule make any note of it.
[Breitbart] Attorney General Loretta Lynch met privately with President Bill Clinton on a private plane.
A source tipped off the local ABC affiliate about the brief meeting, which reportedly lasted about 30 minutes, at the Phoenix’s Sky Harbor International Airport.
President Clinton reportedly learned Lynch was arriving soon and waited to meet with her.
According to ABC 15, the meeting occurred hours before the House Select Committee on Benghazi released its final report to the public.
The private meeting comes as Lynch’s Justice Department is investigating presumptive Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton’s use of a personal, private email server during her time as Secretary of State.
"Lynch said the private meeting on the tarmac did not involve these topics," ABC 15 reports.
"I did see President Clinton at the Phoenix airport as he was leaving and spoke to myself and my husband on the plane," Lynch stated, confirming the meeting. "Our conversation was a great deal about grandchildren, it was primarily social about our travels and he mentioned golf he played in Phoenix."

[ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] Protesters bearing Mexican flags invaded a Scottish golf course owned by Donald Trump on Saturday as the presidential hopeful visited the estate, which is hugely controversial locally.
Holding home-made signs reading "Love Trumps hate" and "Stop the hating," the protesters rushed onto a hill overlooking the Trump International Golf Links clubhouse in northeastern Scotland.
Trump employees ushered journalists away as the chanting protesters appeared, waving a gay rights rainbow flag and the red, white and green Mexican tricolors.
Neighbors whose properties border the estate have raised the flag in a symbol of opposition and solidarity due to Trump’s disparaging remarks about Mexican people and promise to build a wall on Mexico’s border with the US.
A Mexican flag waved in the breeze close by as Trump touched down on a golf course green in a helicopter emblazoned with his name.
"I want the American journalists in particular to see it," said David Milne, whose house looks down on the clubhouse and the 18th green, speaking to AFP by phone.
He said the flag was a "little nod of solidarity to the Mexican people" and symbol of opposition to Trump.
"If he gets to be president the US will be at war in a week and bankrupt in two. The man is an idiot," Milne added.
Trump’s development was hugely controversial in Scotland as it was built on an environmentally protected coastline of rolling dunes, and he stoked anger by trying to stop a wind farm he said would spoil the resort’s view.
Asked about the protesters, Trump compared them to rival candidates for the Republican nomination who he had defeated, such as Senator Ted Cruz.
"I have one or two that are contentious and that’s fine because they lost, it’s like some of the people I beat in the primaries," to win the Republican nomination for president, Trump told news hounds.
Asked if he suffered from a lack of support among European leaders, some of whom have criticized his pledge to ban Moslems from entering the United States, Trump was dismissive.
"I don’t care. It’s irrelevant. I'll tell you who has endorsed me, the people of the United States are endorsing me, that’s what relevant to me," Trump replied.
The visit to the resort in the village of Balmedie, north of the oil city of Aberdeen, came at the end of a two-day trip to Scotland, Trump’s first international visit since he became the presumptive Republican nominee.
The trip, which coincides with a shock vote by Britannia to leave the European Union ...the successor to the Holy Roman Empire, only without the Hapsburgs and the nifty uniforms and the dancing... , stands in stark contrast to the welcome President Barack Obama That’s just how white folks will do you.... received on a visit to Germany in 2008, when he was the presumptive Democratic nominee.
At the time, Obama addressed a crowd of tens of thousands about his hopes of closer links to a unified Europe.
Trump has criticized the continent’s leaders as "weak," and accused them of allowing uncontrolled immigration and failing to combat terrorism.

the Brits know so much about the "Mexican" problems in the USA.....idiots

I figure charter flights from Tucson, El Paso and San Antonio, and San Diego to Scotland seems appropriate. At least it'll give the American drop off cites a breather.
#3
Hey, after Brexit Scotland wants independence from the UK. They should join with Mexico and then both of them can join the EU. I'm sure the Spanish would love that.
#4
Trump only opposed illegal aliens, not all Mexicans. Why don't they start waving Islamic flags and Korans around, he wanted to block all immigration from Muslim countries.
Oh, the protesters probably agree with that part (even if they won't say so out loud).
#5
the protesters probably agree with that part By no means, they are tools of whoever is paying their bills. After multiple Islamic-inspired mass murders in recent days, it is unseemly to wave the black flag of Daesh. They'll get around to that eventually.
[ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] More than half the global population is under age 30, President Barack Obama Because I won... said Friday, and it is vital to make sure they have the right tools to start new businesses.
Obama addressed about 1,200 entrepreneurs and investors at an annual event, saying they can help fuel economic growth in their local communities and countries. People from more than 170 countries attended the Global Entrepreneurship Summit, including a contingent of 11 from Cuba.
"Turns out that starting your own business is not easy. You have to have access to capital, you have to meet the right people, you have to have mentors who can guide you as you get your idea off the ground," Obama said. "And that can be especially difficult for women and young people and minorities and others who haven't always had the same access to networks and opportunities." Forget the white men. They got it made. And the Chinamen? Greased. And the Hindoos? Hell, they'e white, except for the color.
The conference gives those in attendance the opportunity to get advice from investors and to learn how to access capital and lower bureaucratic hurdles.
Just 3 percent of venture capital-backed startups are led by women, and only around 1 percent are led by African-Americans. In advance of the conference, the White House announced a list of 30 tech companies that have pledged to increase the diversity of their workforces, among them Airbnb, Intel and SAP.
Obama said his administration is trying to help people take risks by simplifying the process for starting companies and equipping scientists and engineers with entrepreneurial skills.

What insight the man has! But mainly you have to have a compliance team who can help you avoid running afoul of the 43,686 state, federal and local regulations involved in opening a lemonade stand. And you need a staff of accountants who can give you a WAG about the application of the Internal Revenue Code and its attendant army of regulations, rulings, etc.

And yet, "You didn't build that."

[Daily Caller] While Attorney General Loretta Lynch holds firm to her claim that the motive of Orlando terrorist Omar Mateen may never be known, the FBI is instructing Florida agencies that responded to the attack that night to deny requests for public records pertaining to the case.
Mateen called police several times during the three hour ordeal to declare his allegiance to ISIS, yet only a fraction of his discussions with authorities that night have been released to the public -- first an edited version, than an unedited one.
In response to a lawsuit by local media seeking the release of the 911 audio, the Seminole County Sheriff’s Office released a letter they got from the FBI instructing them to deny all requests for information and refer news outlets seeking information to the feds, the Orlando Sentinel reports.
[Wash Times] Democratic presidential front-runner Hillary Clinton said she "loves" the idea of appointing Barack Obama to the Supreme Court if she’s elected president.
At a campaign event in Iowa Tuesday, Mrs. Clinton told the crowd the next president may have to appoint up to three Supreme Court justices. When one attendee mentioned Mr. Obama as a contender, she seemed excited by the recommendation.
"Wow, what a great idea. No one has ever suggested that to me, I love that, wow," Mrs. Clinton said. "He may have a few other things to do, but I tell you, that’s a great idea.
"I mean, he’s brilliant, he can set forth an argument and he was a law professor," she added. "So he’s got all the credentials, but we would have to get a Democratic Senate to get him confirmed."

Pushshaw! Do you know how many rounds of golf he can buy with his 49% of Clinton Foundation revenues from the "speeches" he gives to the AG, FBI etc in between now and November.

I'd enjoy him being grilled by Congress and unable to claim Executive Priveledge. He's turned what might have been a smooth ride through confirmation into a certainly painful grilling session by his own arrogance.
I'm Also sure he wouldn't appreciate having to treat the other justices as equals and the High Judge as a superior.
He would like that to be mentioned in the history books though. Only President to also be a Supreme Court Justice (and very likely the worst ever at both jobs).

Problem is the senate would probably ratify his appointment - even with a republican majority.
Heck, they'd probably pass a bill requiring 3/4's vote to oppose the nomination just so they can claim they voted against it at election time. The've done it before.
