Real Leaked Emails and Fake Leaked Emails.

https://wikileaks.org/dnc-emails/

If you can't find the leaked email on that page, it is fake and posting it here is just spreading malicious information.

The importance of Kaine's speaking Spanish.

I've seen it dismissed as pandering and useless, but of the 4 people that will be President or Vice President, only 1 of them can go to Spanish language networks and radio stations and appeal to Spanish speaking voters directly. That guy is on our team Not only that, but he learned Spanish, not because he was planning a future political run, but because he was teaching carpentry to Hondurans while he was a missionary.
Edit: Where he witnessed first hand, the toll of a dictatorship.

So either the announcement isn't happening today or Kaine isn't it. #Veepstakes

.@timkaine has landed in Boston for his noon fundraiser. Asked by @betsy_klein if he has talked to HRC, Kaine said, "No news to report."


Anyone know what time the Florida rally is today?

.@HillaryClinton now belongs in prison? C'mon. We can make the case that she shouldn't be elected without jumping the shark.

Guess he took some time out of mowing his lawn to watch his party's funeral.

Things that make me proud as an AA Democrat.

I know that this is early, but to see AA voters of all political stripes and ages unified against Trump warms my heart.

Ryan: GOP will hold hearings on Clinton probe

http://thehill.com/blogs/blog-briefing-room/news/286608-ryan-gop-will-hold-hearings-on-clinton-probe

Republicans will hold hearings to learn more about the FBI's decision to not recommend criminal charges for presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton, Speaker Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) said Tuesday night.

"People have been convicted for far less," Ryan said during an interview with Megyn Kelly on Fox News's "The Kelly File," saying that he thought FBI director James Comey "was going to recommend prosecution" based on the FBI director's opening remarks in a press conference Tuesday.

Ryan said the FBI's decision not to recommend charges "underscores the belief that the Clintons live above the law."

Comey said that while there was evidence Clinton and her staff was "extremely careless" with classified information, "no reasonable prosecutor" would bring a case against her in relation to her use of a private email server while secretary of state.


Well, that was sooner than I thought it would be.

Saddam Hussein is trending.

Why? Because Donald Trump felt it was necessary to praise him during his North Carolina speech tonight (after accusing Loretta Lynch of accepting a bribe.)

This is the Republican nominee for President.

Spoiler Alert

What do you call it when the primary loser puts out an op-ed antagonizing his party for a non-binding platform position (that is neither for or against TPP) in a widely read newspaper in a State that could decide the election?


Maybe my terrible 4th is causing me to read into it too much, but Bernie seems to be playing with fire. What vital state is he going to accuse the Democrats of not caring about workers (aka Trump's message) in next?
