Sanders called Hillary Clinton unqualified.
She isn't.
Trump called Hillary crooked.
She isn't.
Putin called Hillary formidable.
She is.
Obama--our last elected POTUS--called Hillary the most qualified candidate EVER
Hillary is who most Americans voted for.
She should be POTUS.
She really is stupid, isn't she?
First off, "likeable enough" -- that's what Barack called Hillary. And his campaign called her a racist and said she was encouraging people to assassinate him. Read "They killed Hillary in 2008 (Ava and C.I.)" to grasp what an idiot like Victoria Trash can't: Barack destroyed Hillary's chances to be president and did so in 2008.
But can Victoria shut the f**k up?
This is the woman, please remember, who felt the best way to report on trans teens was to ask them to expose themselves to her. She asked underage teens to expose themselves.
That's pedophilia and that bitch should be in prison.
She's like the pedophile who worked with Mayor De Blasio and was the president of Manhattan's Young Democrats -- arrested a year ago for tons of kiddie porn and still roaming the streets.
People like him and Victoria should be locked away.
Children will never be safe with people like that around.
Here's C.I.'s "Iraq snapshot:"
Original drone footage by @NRC_Norway in #Iraq shows remaining devastation of #Mosul 1 year after the it was retaken from #ISIS. More than 380k people still displaced, 54,000 home still destroyed, & 8 mil tons of debris still scattered across the city. bit.ly/2KUHU1K
All that 'success.' Hard to believe the Iraqi people didn't storm the polls on May 12th to vote for Hayder and give him a second term?
It's only hard to believe if you bought the crap the corporate media was selling in the long lead up to the Iraqi elections.
Mosul still in ruins one year after 'liberation' from ISIL aje.io/n5qe5
Today marks one year since #Mosul was retaken from the Islamic State group. However one year later the city is still massively destroyed. 380,000 people are still displaced and face extreme living conditions bit.ly/2KUHU1K #Iraq
That's what 'liberation' looks like. What a proud moment for the whole world.
XINHUA reports that the "smell of rotting bodies comes from under the rubbles" and:
In a coffee shop, where many workers used to gather after a hard day of cleaning up ruins of devastated buildings, blames were heard for the Baghdad government's neglecting the city.
A
young man smoking a traditional water pipe, or Shisha as Iraqis name
it, said he heard media reports on funds allocated by the Baghdad
government to rebuild Mosul, but "actually we haven't seen any progress
by this money. I wonder was it true or stolen by corrupt officials?"
"Dozens
of thousands of people cannot come back to their homes, because they
don't have money to rebuild their houses, not to mention the lack of
basic public services in their neighborhoods," the young man said while
he was inhaling deeply from the mouthpiece of the Shisha and exhaling a
jet of white smoke.
"Can
you imagine the misery of the people here, they even using water wells
while the world is watching us?" the young man said, blaming the
situation on corruption and failure of Iraqi politicians.
Islamic Relief notes, "Tons
of explosive remnants are still littered all over the city and hundreds
of thousands of people remain displaced because it is too dangerous for
them to return home. Schools, hospitals and other public facilities
have been damaged and destroyed."
Liberation, or 'liberation,' resulted in what is called the worst battle
since WWII. What did that battle look like? A massacre. A massacre
where civilians couldn't be distinguished from combatants.
That's called a War Crime, by the way.
Wilson Fache (THE NATIONAL) reports on the battle and notes:
One
of the soldiers, his face scarred by shrapnel, recounted the final days
of fighting. “Around 15 per cent of the civilians managed to flee, the
others are in there,” he said, pointing to the murky waters of the
Tigris. “We had to kill everyone. We couldn't tell friends from
enemies.”
The violence never ends in Iraq. Margaret Griffis (ANTIWAR.COM) notes, of Monday's violence, "At least 34 people were killed, and 11 were wounded in recent violence."
