Clinton Spox: If You’re Troubled that Hillary Wants to Fight AIDS While President, Don’t Vote For Her

صورة
From: Towleroad Clinton Press Secretary Brian Fallon pushed back against the suggestion that the Clinton Foundation should shut down if Hillary Clinton is elected president. Fallon sat down to talk with MSNBC’s Andrea Mitchell about a report from the AP that insinuated corruption at the foundation during Clinton’s tenure as Secretary of State. Fallon rebuked critics of the foundation and the AP report, arguing that the Clinton Foundation is being politicized because it’s an election year. Previously, “The Clinton Foundation has been widely praised by Democrats and Republicans alike,” Fallon said. What Fallon thinks should get more attention in the press is the work that the Clinton Foundation does around the world, for instance helping to solve the HIV/AIDS crisis. Said Fallon, “ Let’s look at what that foundation work is. They have given AIDS drugs to a 11.5 million people in the world…more than half the people in the world receiving AIDS drugs receive them from the Clinton Foundation...

From: Towleroad Hillary Clinton ’s campaign unveiled a new ad that warns voters what “one wrong move” from Donald Trump could cost America and features Trump delivering lines that show he’s not someone that understands “steady leadership, clear thinking” or “calm judgment.” “Knock the crap out of em, would you? Seriously.” “I know more about ISIS than the generals do. Believe me.” “And you can tell them to go f**k themselves.” “I would bomb the sh*t out of them.” Watch: ABC News reports that the Clinton campaign has made an $80 million ad but in 8 battleground states: The buy – which includes $3 million in additional ads for the remainder of August and nearly $77 million for September and October – is for Florida, Pennsylvania, New Hampshire, Iowa, Nevada, Ohio, North Carolina, as well as the Omaha area of Nebraska.

Hillary Clinton Just Disproved Donald Trump’s Comments About Her Health on Jimmy Kimmel

صورة
From: Towleroad Hillary Clinton made an appearance last night on Jimmy Kimmel Live and offered some answers to the pressing questions of the campaign, and some of the not so pressing ones. Donald Trump has said some crazy things about her, most recently that she, with Barack Obama, is the co-founder of ISIS. Said Clinton about that statement:   “There’s enough evidence now that when Trump talks the way he talks it actually helps the terrorists because they make a case – as they made with this comment – I think it’s crazy and I also think it’s harmful.” Clinton also spoke about how she’s preparing to debate Donald Trump. “You’ve gotta be prepared for wacky stuff that comes at you,” she said. “I am drawing on my experience in elementary school.” Kimmel asked the former Secretary of State: “How great would it be if you were President, if your first act was to deport Donald Trump to Mexico? Would you prefer to be running against somebody like Mitt Romney?” Clinton replied that she would ...

#AlohaFelicia: Gay Hawaii Representative Who Voted Against Marriage Equality Loses Reelection

Ousted Democrat Jo Jordan claimed she voted for what her constituents wanted. From: NewNowNext  The first openly gay state representative to vote against marriage equality has lost her bid for reelection. Hawaii state representative Jo Jordan , a Democrat from Waianae and an out lesbian, voted against a same-sex marriage initiative in 2013. At the time Jordan claimed she had to vote for what her constituents wanted, not her personal views as a lesbian. (The bill passed anyway, making Hawaii the 16th state to embrace the freedom to marry.)  As she explained to Honolulu magazine: I always have taken my personal hat off, my personal beliefs away from it, and said, “Look at the substance, what is the measure, have you heard all the dialogue, have you vetted everything? Have all your questions been answered? And are you willing to make a decision for the 1.4 million people in the state?” For your constituents, but also for the whole state. I know who I am, I’m grounded in who I am, I’ve ne...
