I skimmed the Robert Hanssen bio on Wikipedia, but don’t understand how Comey could be linked to Hanssen.
Wikipedia says that Hanssen approached Russia and offered to be a mole for them in exchange for cash, from 1979-2001, when he was arrested and pled guilty the same year. Wikipedia says that Hanssen served the FBI in Gary Indiana, NYC, then transferred to Washington DC in 1981.
Until his appointment to FBI Director in 2013, it appears that Comey worked only for DOJ as a federal government employee. Don’t see how Hanssen’s activities would have anything to do with Comey who worked for the US Attorney’s Southern District of New York (1987-1993 and again 2002-2003) and the Eastern District of Virginia (1996-2001).
Comey is more closely tied to the Clintons — in 1996 he was deputy special counsel on the Senate Whitewater Committee, and 2002 involved in the investigation of WJC’s pardon of Marc Rich.
Wow! Just announced on @Lawrence 3.6 million already voted in FL. Early and likely voters Clinton +8 48-40. Methodology- sample taken from actual voters who have already voted. Is up +53 % on early voters, getting 28% of GOP voters who have already voted.
huge thanks to your Dad and other Republicans I have read about or heard saying the are voting for SoS HRC;
please do it if you can … I remember how you wrote about his decision to vote for SoS HRC;
I like the stories of those who are able to put party affiliation aside and do what they know is right for the country, its people and the world at large.
I’m not calling anything either until election night – but, figuratively speaking, if it’s LIGHTS OUT for Trump, I personally volunteer to throw the last shovel of dirt over him.
The fantastic thing about this is that about 40% of expected voters have voted, and they have contacted and sampled each voter who has voted who is included in the sample according to their voter profile, and run an exit poll on them. The remainder are those yet to vote and are LVS . The big percentages are with those who have already voted.
but I think that the way the majority kids react when they recognize PBO tells me a lot about how the parents in the home treat or talk about him when his image appears in the media reports;
of course this excludes those kids who are not old enough, may be tired, or having a bad day when they meet PBO;
I know we’re doing well, i.e., Hillary has the votes. But we want to blow that Orange Arse & his minions outta here. So please, let’s keep it up, vote like it’s our last breath. Because it will be so if Orange Arse gets in. We’re going to hear all kinds of nonsense from the Orange Arse Media, especially in the next few days. Ignore their known & proven mendacity. If someone lies to you again & again, do you continue to give value to their words? Heck no! Boo & VOTE! xoxo
That’s why it’s so important to get the message out that there is no “safe” state. We MUST run up the popular vote total to send a clear message that this is a vibrant democracy, with no room for Mussolini wannabes.
Thanks for posting this video, NW! All of it’s own post! Josh’s little bundle of cuteness just says it all! Made me smile. Natural love! And loved the way he said, “POTUS”, not President Obama, but “POTUS”! Little cutie will never call anyone else POTUS! Try explaining that to him, as far as he’s concerned PBO is POTUS! Alrighty now! 🙂
The latest robo call that we are getting in Florida is a man with an A-A accent parroting the carnival barker “what have the democrats done for you?” How democrats have failed A-A’s, but nothing specific about what the repubs. and their repugnant candidate would do. How stupid do they think B.lack people are? Collaborators like this person will find himself suffering the fate of all such: left with nothing when they are no longer useful and no way to “come back home” to the community. If this were a normal year, and the repub. candidate a moderate or at least someone who made some effort to be respectful etc. I would have no problem with anyone being a supporter. We need people in all camps. But for this person and the handful of others who stand on stages behind this awful racist shining and grinning, is a disgrace and a sin. The Black people that I have met who are repubs. are all people who have been groomed and flattered by the RNC. They like being one of the few and have been led to believe that they are special, more intelligent than other Black people and all other kind of nonsense. Time and again people like them follow the fates of J. C. Watts, Condoleeza Rice, Michael Steele, and yes, Colin Powell.
I told my family about Omorosa’s (I had to explain who she is) comment that when the Orange one winds all of his detractors will have to bow down to him and they almost lost it. If she and the other A-A’s showed up in the audience of one of his rallies (notice that he usually has them on the stage behind him) they would be cursed out, spat on, and beaten and worse by the deplorables with whom they have allied themselves.
I must admit I am having a blast watching PBO campaign this time around. He is so gleeful in these speeches! I suspect there is much less pressure on him when he is not the candidate and he seems to be enjoying every minute. He certainly has the crowds with him. Initially I wondered if it was going to be awkward watching him do his thing for Hillary but it is not at all. He is exactly what she needs. Funny how there is so little talk of Bill these days. Even with Clinton as President, I suspect PBO is going to be the face of the Dem party for many years to come. Of course, that is fine with me!
They are doing well to keep him away from major cities in the swing states. I do not think that he has even made an appearance in the toss-up states. He had an engagement in Immokalee, Fl. population 24,154 according to the 2010 census. He would cost her more votes than he would bring in. Most of my problems with HRC in the past were more about Bill than her (for the longest it was hard to see her as an individual). This is supposed to be about her and what she, herself will bring to the presidency. Most people today are not interested in seeing them in any type of co-presidency. In 2008 she flat out said that she could not control Bill. Apparently this time around someone has had a come-to-Jesus moment with him and so far he has behaved as the spouse, not the candidate.
Totally agree. I was never a Bill fan, just too much lack of self discipline for my tastes. And a big part of this mess with the FBI is due to his getting on Lynch’s plane. He has put her in a position where she feels she cannot crack down on Comey because she is compromised. At the same time, she did not handle this well. Rather than let Comey take the lead, she simply should have recused herself and let her deputy AG handle it. Lots of mistakes all around.
Have seen a LOT of finger-pointing at WJC — that HRC wouldn’t be embroiled in MSM/Trump-driven e-mail controversy, as if WJC is responsible for Comey’s actions.
Examples (not posting to bash Jake Tapper — this is just the first of a series of tweets, which ended with @joshtpm’s plea for his followers to stop flaming Jake).
This is stacking one conspiracy theory on top of another, Jake. Do better. https://t.co/jtGcZVp3aC
Regardless of how you feel about Jake Tapper and Ryan Lizza, they represent moderate/middle-of-the-road MSM.
I can’t tell you how infuriated I am about both WJC and Comey’s actions — both should have known better, and have given MSM the go-ahead to pursue non-stop HRC bashing while allowing WJC to wear the mask of a “reasonable” person for just a few days until Nov 8.
Have also seen countless tweets to this effect:
Veteran Trump watcher @dmartosko accurately describes Trump as being his most "on message" since the RNC in pool report tonight
This is our big GOTV in Montana. We have two really big races here. Our Governor and the race for single congressperson. Currently he is Ryan Zinke a retired Seal. He is so egocentric after he had only congress for 6 months he was going to run for speaker of the house and then he wanted to be Trumps VP. Also he lives mostly in California, but because he has an R after his name he won. Our Dem is Denise Juneau. She has been our Superintendent of Education for 8 years. She is fantastic, I have met her many times, she is also an Indian, born here in Montana on a reservation and got one of her degrees from Harvard. And she is openly gay. She was interviewed by Lester Holt and will appear on NBC news Sunday night. Hope you can watch it. Now we all will be working hard these last few days.
meta, something to put a smile on your face after all this lowdown dirty B.S. from James Comey and the FBI. I tell you, they sure has people wondering what the hell is going on with Comey?
Arapahoe, you had asked about the FBI’s release of docs on the Clinton foundation. The timing is weird overall given the file was closed in 2005. Second, apparently the twitter account the notice went on hasn’t been active for more than a year. Not sure what is going on but the whole FBI seems to be out of control at the moment. Not sure how any of this is going to get fixed.
"That is just weird – it is not required" @AriMelber about the FBI's dormant twitter account tweeting about Clinton today
I hope this isn’t a duplicate. I watched the Trump deposition and I came away wondering if he could read. It explains his hatred of teleprompters and HARVARD graduates.
Just back from another phone bank. Lots of people have voted in Oregon already. Love this video so much, Nerdy! POTUS will always be BHO in my mind, too, little cutie!
How is that working? Gary Johnson still seems to be campaigning for himself while Bill Weld is practically a Clinton surrogate… or at least a “never Trump” advocate.
Something these idiotic pundits should talk about but don’t:
GOP cut polling places to 1 from 16 for early voting in one NC district with 1/3 black voters. Surprise! Black turnout is down. https://t.co/Y4jDA7OHQH
I watched that segment of Morning Joke this morning before turning the channel and was in disbelief. This black guy telegraphing to Black people not to vote for HRC is outrageous. His excuse is that he lives in a blue state. Guess what? This is how we got GOP governors in NY by having Blacks not voting.
I don’t think I even lasted a minute today (having avoided it for the past few days, decided to peek in). They always manage to look for the high points for DJT, and forecast doom and gloom for HRC.

Does Greg Sargent’s tweet link to the same article that you tweeted early in this thread (I try to conserve my clicking on links to NYT because of the cap they place on free articles).
FBI investigation into Clinton Foundation is largely based on info from news stories and “Clinton Cash” https://t.co/h1WXUZkgYF
What are @BlakeHounshell and NYT referring to when they say FBI investigation this summer was driven by “Clinton Cash?” Is this a reference to DJT’s pay-to-play allegations against Clinton Foundation and HRC as Secretary of State?
See my upthread response to FirefoxTX re: my thoughts on WJC, MSM and Comey.
The upcoming anti-Clinton documentary Clinton Cash largely rehashes the shoddily-researched conspiracies from the 2015 book on which it’s based.
Media Matters attended a screening of the film Thursday in New York City ahead of its release. Clinton Cash author Peter Schweizer and Breitbart News executive chairman Steve Bannon – who co-wrote and co-produced the film — were on hand to promote it to an audience that included Fox News personalities Bill Hemmer and Brian Kilmeade.
When the book — which largely pushes the evidence-free claim that while serving as secretary of state, Clinton did favors for foreign entities that donated to the Clinton Foundation — was published last year, Schweizer, a Republican activist with a history of factual problems, was criticized by Media Matters and other outlets for a series of sloppy errors. Some of the errors were later corrected in the Kindle version of the book.
Clinton Cash also heavily relied on innuendo in the absence of solid proof for its central allegation that the Clintons have traded favors for money. As Slate writer Jamelle Bouie put it, “Peter Schweizer’s attack on the Clintons leads with his conclusions and never connects the dots.”
OMGosh, it’s worse than I ever could have imagined.
MSM is now mainlining Breitbart.
And basing their SCREAMING headlines on a RW conspiracy theory movie.
And crickets, absolute radio silence, on anything negative about that sorry excuse for a human being, DJT. Just heard a report on @cbsradionews which blithely referenced DJT’s support among white voters — with nary a hint that he’s FUELING #WhiteSupremacy.
■Your dad supported Trump ■Your dad says he'll de-legitimize a Clinton presidency by not hearing her #SCOTUS choice ■Your dad gave us Palin https://t.co/rKbwqhgoQY
I wouldn’t mind attending this meeting… to get this joker out. Even though whoever would succeed him from those hyenas in GOP Congress will surely be as unpalatable as DT.
Neo-Nazi leader Andrew Anglin plans to muster thousands of poll-watchers across all 50 states. His partners at the alt-right website “the Right Stuff” are touting plans to set up hidden cameras at polling places in Philadelphia and hand out liquor and marijuana in the city’s “ghetto” on Election Day to induce residents to stay home. The National Socialist Movement, various factions of the Ku Klux Klan and the white nationalist American Freedom Party all are deploying members to watch polls, either “informally” or, they say, through the Trump campaign.
The Oath Keepers, a group of former law enforcement and military members that often shows up in public heavily armed, is advising members to go undercover and conduct “intelligence-gathering” at polling places, and Donald Trump ally Roger Stone is organizing his own exit polling, aiming to monitor thousands of precincts across the country.

LOLz!!
So very clever 🙌🏾
This is a better copy:

My sister, her husband and my nieces are among them. They all voted for HRC. So did 3 friends and their family members.
Great! My Republican father voted early and voted for Hillary:) I feel like I should throw him a party!!
Actually, when this is all over, I might just send him flowers:)
Yes, honor him on my behalf.

Tell him “some woman in Illinois” loves him for that!
Add my “I ❤ U" to your dear, dear Dad!
This seems wild but if it’s true, then it’s LIGHTS OUT for Trump. He needs FL to win.
I’m not calling anything either until election night – but, figuratively speaking, if it’s LIGHTS OUT for Trump, I personally volunteer to throw the last shovel of dirt over him.
Stand in line, Jacque. We ALL want to do that!

I’ve thought the same thing for a very long time. I mean when a baby says “that’s POTUS” you can calibrate how much the parents love him too.
I know we’re doing well, i.e., Hillary has the votes. But we want to blow that Orange Arse & his minions outta here. So please, let’s keep it up, vote like it’s our last breath.

The latest robo call that we are getting in Florida is a man with an A-A accent parroting the carnival barker “what have the democrats done for you?” How democrats have failed A-A’s, but nothing specific about what the repubs. and their repugnant candidate would do.

Collaborators like this person will find himself suffering the fate of all such: left with nothing when they are no longer useful and no way to “come back home” to the community.

Time and again people like them follow the fates of J. C. Watts, Condoleeza Rice, Michael Steele, and yes, Colin Powell.
I told my family about Omorosa’s (I had to explain who she is) comment that when the Orange one winds all of his detractors will have to bow down to him and they almost lost it.

Should be “wins” not winds.
I just saw the news about HRC re Florida’s early voting. Lawrence just had a long segment on it and Bill R just
posted it above. This makes my heart SING! Absofreakinglutely!! GO Florida. After all the nightmare of Comey
that has been thrust upon us, this is such encouraging news. Let’s keep working our butts off to GOTV.
Yesssss!
Spectacular, Linda! I’ve passed this info on!
I must admit I am having a blast watching PBO campaign this time around. He is so gleeful in these speeches!

They are doing well to keep him away from major cities in the swing states. I do not think that he has even made an appearance in the toss-up states. He had an engagement in Immokalee, Fl. population 24,154 according to the 2010 census. He would cost her more votes than he would bring in.

All DJT has to do is appear #NotInsane for a few days to convince uninformed Americans to vote for him.
This election has been a nightmare and WJC and Comey have made it so much worse. 😦
Oh the intrigue, not a connection I remembered.
Hope this posts, good cackle, not elections:
At least some of the conservatives recognize what DT has done to their party.
Just great, one of my ports of call on my cruise in the spring…
This is our big GOTV in Montana. We have two really big races here. Our Governor and the race for single congressperson. Currently he is Ryan Zinke a retired Seal.

She was interviewed by Lester Holt and will appear on NBC news Sunday night. Hope you can watch it. Now we all will be working hard these last few days.
Thanks for introducing her. Will break my boycott of the evening Trump-all-the-time news and watch this segment.
I don’t watch the news anymore either but for her I will. I think I will tape it. That way I won’t have to watch all the other crap.
I’ve watched this THAT’S POTUS video with Walker Earnest about a gazillion times. It’s so darn cute!!
meta, something to put a smile on your face after all this lowdown dirty B.S. from James Comey and the FBI. I tell you, they sure has people wondering what the hell is going on with Comey?
OMG, bella, what a nutty day. The FBI is looking very crazy right now. I hope some day we hear what the heck is going on.
I have already watched this video many, many, many times
Me too, meta…and my smile got bigger each time. 😀
Hillary’s schedule has been updated. PBO is going back to FL for her on Sunday, Orlando GOTV event.
Wow!!! Happy to hear that PBO is returning to FL. We need to make sure Trump does not win FL.
GE TODville.
Hard to hear PBO, but check out the reaction of the overflow crowd today in Columbus. 🙂
Arapahoe, you had asked about the FBI’s release of docs on the Clinton foundation. The timing is weird overall given the file was closed in 2005. Second, apparently the twitter account the notice went on hasn’t been active for more than a year. Not sure what is going on but the whole FBI seems to be out of control at the moment. Not sure how any of this is going to get fixed.
PBO is working to resolve pipeline crisis.
So glad!
I love, love, love how he has kept faith with his extended family. He was truly named:” He who cares for people across the land.”
I hope this isn’t a duplicate. I watched the Trump deposition and I came away wondering if he could read. It explains his hatred of teleprompters and HARVARD graduates.
Tony Schwartz, the man who actually wrote The Art of the Deal, said Trump has a 200-word vocabulary. Wouldn’t doubt it!
I’ve noted, even before he used teleprompters, that during rallies, he would sometimes pull out a sheet of paper, attempt to read it, and give up.
Maybe that’s why he was so belligerent when Mr. Khan asked him if he had ever even *read* the Constitution.
Cubs win tonight, force game seven.
Actually watched most of it, I think maybe I brought them luck (Ha!), and I’m glad they won tonight!
VOTE! 🙂
Just back from another phone bank. Lots of people have voted in Oregon already. Love this video so much, Nerdy! POTUS will always be BHO in my mind, too, little cutie!
Thanks for everything you’re doing toward victory, Judith! Way to go!
Focus, Focus, Focus, …. Focus on GOTV => PBO said, all else is just noise;
surely we can focus on encouraging each other to get through the finish line … personally, I thrive on positivity;
depending on what we do with our time during the next 6 days, then this time next week we will be celebrating the win of President-elect HRC;
Sounds good to me – I like to focus on positivity, too!
GN to you and TODville – and all the ships at sea. Speaking of the U.S. Navy, I just love this graphic and the thought behind it:

Goodnight TOD 🙂

Louis C.K. Is All In For Hillary – CONAN on TBS

Which is why I watch. The hype doesn’t “bother” me, therefore, I can calm my team and neighbors down…
Thanks, jazziz2.
There is no “safe” state in this election. Running up the popular vote sends a message.

When the book — which largely pushes the evidence-free claim that while serving as secretary of state, Clinton did favors for foreign entities that donated to the Clinton Foundation — was published last year, Schweizer, a Republican activist with a history of factual problems, was criticized by Media Matters and other outlets for a series of sloppy errors. Some of the errors were later corrected in the Kindle version of the book.
Clinton Cash also heavily relied on innuendo in the absence of solid proof for its central allegation that the Clintons have traded favors for money. As Slate writer Jamelle Bouie put it, “Peter Schweizer’s attack on the Clintons leads with his conclusions and never connects the dots.”
THANK YOU, LH!
OMGosh, it’s worse than I ever could have imagined.
MSM is now mainlining Breitbart.
And basing their SCREAMING headlines on a RW conspiracy theory movie.
And crickets, absolute radio silence, on anything negative about that sorry excuse for a human being, DJT. Just heard a report on @cbsradionews which blithely referenced DJT’s support among white voters — with nary a hint that he’s FUELING #WhiteSupremacy.
JHC, GOTV, Dems!!!
The nerve of this woman! I love Victoria’s answer.
I wouldn’t mind attending this meeting… to get this joker out. Even though whoever would succeed him from those hyenas in GOP Congress will surely be as unpalatable as DT.
Also important to remember this from November 5th 2014 on how restricting minority votes affected the 2014 midterm elections.

Good morning, TODville!!
Tuesday night sometime after 11 p.m. authorities responded to a call about a church burning.
Local Black church Hopewell M.B. Church was not only burned but also vandalized with the words “Vote Trump” spray painted on the side of the building.
New post.

Neo-Nazi leader Andrew Anglin plans to muster thousands of poll-watchers across all 50 states. His partners at the alt-right website “the Right Stuff” are touting plans to set up hidden cameras at polling places in Philadelphia and hand out liquor and marijuana in the city’s “ghetto” on Election Day to induce residents to stay home. The National Socialist Movement, various factions of the Ku Klux Klan and the white nationalist American Freedom Party all are deploying members to watch polls, either “informally” or, they say, through the Trump campaign.
The Oath Keepers, a group of former law enforcement and military members that often shows up in public heavily armed, is advising members to go undercover and conduct “intelligence-gathering” at polling places, and Donald Trump ally Roger Stone is organizing his own exit polling, aiming to monitor thousands of precincts across the country.
