Transcripts of Clinton's Wall Street Talks Released in New Wikileaks Dump (reuters.com)

Posted by msmash on from the shaking-things-up dept.

Emily Stephenson and Luciana Lopez, reporting for Reuters: U.S. Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton's full remarks to several Wall Street audiences appeared to become public on Saturday when the controversial transparency group Wikileaks dumped its latest batch of hacked emails. The documents showed comments by Clinton during question-and-answer sessions with Goldman Sachs Chief Executive Lloyd Blankfein and Tim O'Neill, the bank's head of investment management, at three separate events in 2013 in Arizona, New York and South Carolina. Some excerpts of Clinton's speeches had already been released. For more than a week, Wikileaks has published in stages what it says are hacked emails from the account of John Podesta, Clinton's campaign chairman. Clinton came under fire for months for not releasing full details of her paid speeches to big business audiences, as opponents accused her of a cozy relationship with bankers and other members of the U.S. financial system.

    "...and that their bodies belong to men."

    So, when he said "they let you do it" there's actually no "they let you" in that sentence?

    He's far from perfect, but the other two have so many negatives I wish they would get absolutely no votes. I actually kind of like Johnson, jokes aside. I disagree with far fewer of his REAL positions (I reject campaign promise positions). You can track Clinton's real positions through her voting record, previous statements, and how they all shifted as she made a carbon copy of the Sanders campaign in order to grab the Progressive vote, despite her own position being a Neo Conservative. Trump is just unbelievable, unreal, no. Both of them way no. I'd take Jill Stein and her wackiness over either of them.
