    What a stupid time to be alive...

    Or maybe don't leak classified information that you're sworn to protect in the first place?

    "How can someone work for the NSA and NOT be aware that they track everything?" Maybe she assumed her employer would be OK with it. Such are the times we live in. They did give her a security clearance even though there's a ton of stuff in her background that would have disqualified her back when I went through the process.

    It might be different if every single prediction made by the "climate scientists" over the past 50 years hadn't been completely wrong.

    Yep, it's hard to tell the difference any more.

    Of course they ran a psy-ops campaign just as all nation-states do to every other nation-state, but to say that this time it worked on 60+ million American people is delusional. In contrast, we DO know that the HRC campaign spent millions on online trolls under the Correct the Record guise. Millions! But that psy-ops campaign had no effect? Or did it backfire?

    Keep running with the "Russia hacked the votes!" narrative and your side will never be relevant again.

    "Clinton did have more votes than Trump" Wrong. Trump had more votes: 304 to 227.

    What existing Democrats? They have no bench. The corrupt DNC has locked out anyone who doesn't toe the Globalist line and they've been decimated locally the past several years. There isn't anyone under 70 in a position to win the nomination.

    The data was there, they were just in denial that she could possibly lose. Because it was her turn, or something. It didn't help that anyone who dared challenge her and dared to suggest she might be in trouble was quickly shown the door. They're still in denial - that's why we're bombarded with the ludicrous "The Russian's did it!" narrative now.

    That is simply delusional. The NYT was and still is extremely pro-Trump? How can you possibly believe what you just typed? There is ZERO evidence of any Russian collusion/interference.

    The vast majority of Trump voters were in reality voting against Clinton, not for him.

  17. Re:Blamethrower for President in 2020 on Hillary Clinton Rips 'Bankrupt' DNC Data Operation (axios.com) · · Score: 2, Interesting

    The DNC is stacked with Clinton loyalists and they've done everything possible to remain in control after failing so miserably and being exposed as corrupt. That's what "The Russians!" narrative is all about: an excuse for the commoners not to replace their own leadership. Does anyone really believe that a single Trump voter is now saying to themselves "Wow, Russia tricked me!". Hell no, it's meant for the dopes to have something else to blame instead of the corruption of their leadership.

    She inherited the most advanced political data operation in history from Obama. Is there anything she won't blame besides herself? P.S. They're going to run her again in 2020, just watch.

  20. Re: It's the voters, stupid! on DEFCON Conference To Target Voting Machines (politico.com) · · Score: 1

    "but Trump had far more social media bots and favorable fake news" is absurd. Anyone who paid attention knows the opposite is true - that's a big reason he won. David Brock spent millions on paid trolls, that is documented fact and it backfired in a big, big way. All the excuses (Russia, Russia, Russia!) are simply attempts to deflect criticism from the corrupt party leadership so they won't be held accountable and remain in charge. Just watch, they're going to run Clinton again in 2020.

    Florida is a bad example. There are still a few counties in Florida that restrict access to their voter rolls due to Voter Rights Act provisions meant to prevent voter intimidation. But generally speaking voter rolls are public information and the information can be bought/sold freely.

    That's nonsense. A single anonymous source to NBC news does not equal "Russia was confirmed to have hacked two election databases"

    It's not new either. Voter list analytics has been big business for 30+ years. Your voter list is a campaign's single most valuable asset.

  24. Re:It's the voters, stupid! on DEFCON Conference To Target Voting Machines (politico.com) · · Score: 1

    Why would they hack the voter rolls? Voter registration data is public information. There are websites that aggregate voter registration data from all states, match it to the USPS change of address system and then sell that data to anyone.
