BernieNomics
I got a lesson in BernieNomics yesterday. In an interview with John Harwood, Bernie Sanders recommended a 90% income tax rate and complained that stores stock too much deodorant. It’s the armpit version of clean your plate because children in India are starving.
His views on kids’ sports on the other hand are laissez faire. He favors unsupervised play.
Government Email Hackers
Or should I say “hacks”? A federal judge on Friday reopened a lawsuit to force Hillary to turn over more government email from her secret stash. Two weeks ago 6,400 missing emails turned up from Lois Lerner’s crashed computer at IRS.
Clinton Talk not Cheap
Actually, for Hillary Clinton talk is cheap compared to Bill. The Washington Post found he earned over $100 million in speaking fees between 2001 and 2013. $26 million of that came from companies that contribute to the Clinton Foundation.
Could Bill really be vice president? Fact Check calls it a “constitutional conundrum”.
Hillary Self Server
Now that we know Hillary hid public information on her own private server, will her past scandals come back to haunt her? Maybe not.
Lois Lerner “lost” thousands of IRS emails when a server “crashed” and had to be put down. She seems to be weathering the storm so far.
EPA administrator Lisa Jackson kept a secret email account under the name Richard Windsor. Mr. Windsor won an award and now has a cushy job at Apple.
Amnesty
Senate Democrats filibustered a bill that would withhold funding from Homeland Security until the president pulls back his executive order on amnesty for illegal immigrants. Not gonna happen.
Besides, a federal judge in Texas already suspended the Obama order. Republicans must have got the news yesterday. Mitch McConnell caved.
