And yet, both of them, including Mrs. Clinton, stood over coffins, and told the American people, for

many weeks following that, that this was a demonstration, that we couldn’t have predicted this. And later, of course, Mrs. Clinton said to a Congressional hearing, what possible difference could it make why or how these Americans were murdered. It’s stunning. And yet we also know, Hugh, I will remind you and all of your listeners we really thought in 2012 that Benghazi was going to be Obama’s great Achilles’ heel in the 2012 election. It turned out not to be the case. And it wasn’t the case, because unfortunately, our nominee, a good man, he would have made a fine president, but our nominee wouldn’t drive the point home, which is why no matter how bad Benghazi looks now, we’d better have a nominee next summer who will drive this point home over and over and over in the debates, because otherwise, I fear Mrs. Clinton will get away with Benghazi just as President Obama did.” Economy Gov.

"This is funny and I wish it wasn't funny," Walker said, jokingly. "But it's probably true today that China and maybe even Russia probably know more about what was on Hillary Clinton's server than do members of the ... United State Congress." He argued any "high school freshman taking an ethics course" could recognize that the Clinton Foundation's acceptance of donations from foreign governments while she was serving as secretary of state was a "conflict of interest." "Hillary Clinton is woefully out of touch with mainstream America," he said. Asked how Republicans can beat Clinton in the general election, Walker -- who recently said he'll announce his 2016 decision the week of July 13 -- repeated a line that he used earlier this year that's also viewed as a knock against Jeb Bush.

Clinton Breached National Security, U.S. Only Superpower Not Seeing Sec. Clinton’s E-mails

WEST DES MOINES, IA – Governor Bobby Jindal said Secretary Hillary Clinton has “created a major breach of national security” by hiding her e-mails on a personal server and that the United States may be the only superpower in the world who hasn’t seen the Secretary’s e-mails. Governor Jindal said, “Today the State Department plans to release more of Hillary Clinton’s e-mails from her private server. Every time this happens, it gets treated as breaking news. But there are two very important things in this continuing drama that are routinely overlooked. “First, the American public is only getting the emails that Hillary Clinton herself is allowing us to see. She has already edited the e-mails, and has already destroyed the ones she did not want us to see, which makes the whole thing a meaningless charade. “Secondly, and far more importantly, by choosing to use her own server in her own house she created a major breach of national security. Everyone seems to focus on the dishonesty, the lack of transparency, and the fact that she destroyed all these records. But those are standard practices for the Clintons. “The real issue is that while the American people will never see these emails, it is likely that the Russians and the Chinese already have all of them. This is the real consequence of having a Secretary of State who unlawfully chose to conduct America’s foreign policy business on her own private email system. “If the Congressional leaders really want to see all of Hillary Clinton’s e-mails, they would have a better chance of getting them from the hackers working for foreign governments. We are likely the only superpower in the world that will never see Hillary Clinton’s e-mails.” Gov. Bobby Jindal, Twitter 6/30/15 https://twitter.com/BobbyJindal/status/615952597220986880

Scott Walker said last week. Walker’s comments were made June 17 on the radio show “Boston Herald Drive” in Boston and published online by the liberal blog Right Wing Watch on Tuesday. In the 22-minute interview, radio host Adriana Cohen asked Walker to weigh in on Clinton advocating for equal pay legislation after a disputed report was released indicating women on Clinton’s former New York U.S. Senate staff were paid less than men working for her. “I think it’s part of that amazing double standard,” Walker replied. “But I think even a bigger issue than that. And this is sadly something that would make her consistent with the president, and that is I believe that the president and now Hillary Clinton tend to think that politically, they do better if they pit one group of Americans versus another.” Walker said the focus, rather, should be on ensuring all Americans have the skills and qualifications “they need to succeed in life.” When asked to clarify which groups Walker was referring to, AshLee Strong, spokeswoman for Walker’s political nonprofit Our American Revival, said Wednesday that Walker “was addressing the overall point” that Democrats like Obama and

Clinton are again “being divisive on an important issue instead of working to provide solutions for Americans” and that Walker “fully supports equal pay for equal work.” Walker also said Clinton and other Democrats measure success by how many people are dependent on the government, reiterating a common refrain he uses in stump speeches across the country. Walker is expected to announce next month a bid for the 2016 GOP presidential nomination. Clinton, expected to be the Democratic presidential nominee, has already begun criticizing GOP hopefuls on equal pay — pointing to comments Walker made when he signed a bill in 2012 that repealed Wisconsin’s 2009 Equal Pay Enforcement Act, which allowed lawsuits alleging claims of unequal pay to be filed in state court instead of only in federal court. At the time, Walker called debate over the repeal “a bogus issue.” “You gotta push back,” he said when asked about Clinton’s criticism. “I ran against someone by the name of Mary Burke last (election). We had some of the same sorts of attacks out there.” During her campaign to unseat Walker as governor in 2014, Burke hammered Walker on the repeal, saying it left women without equal pay protections in Wisconsin. In the interview, Walker emphasized he supports the state’s Fair Employment Act. “The law that I signed a repeal on was a law that was really just a handout to the trial attorneys,” he said. “It technically had never been used because the law that’s already in place, that’s still in place today — a law that I support — says it’s illegal to discriminate in employment based on sex just as it is on race and other categories.” Leadership Carly Fiorina, Washington Times, 6/28/15 http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2015/jun/28/ben-carson-carly-fiorina-top-western-conservative-/?page=1 DENVER — Ben Carson repeated Sunday as the winner of the Western Conservative Summit’s Republican presidential straw poll, but Carly Fiorina stole the show. … Nobody needed reminding that Ms. Fiorina is the only female Republican presidential candidate at a time when Hillary Rodham Clinton, the prohibitive favorite for the Democratic nomination, is casting her candidacy as a historic opportunity to put a woman in the White House. “Hillary Clinton must not be president of these United States, but not because she’s a woman,” Ms. Fiorina said. “Hillary Clinton must not be president of these United States because she lacks a track record of leadership, because she is not transparent, and because her policies are bad for the people of this nation.” Washington politician Gov.

Fellow Conservative, This is urgent. Rand asked me to email you right away about the deadline to reach $1 million raised for his End of Quarter Money Bomb. The media has tried to destroy his candidacy from day one because they see the polls that show him as the Republican best positioned to defeat Hillary Clinton. So they are trying to push the story that the choices in 2016 are "inevitable." Can he count on you to chip in a contribution of $20.16 before the deadline? A strong fundraising report will put the political world on notice that the conservative grassroots have the final say on who our party nominates. And there are less than 8 hours until the deadline! Time is running out so please chip in a contribution of $20.16 right away. … In Liberty, Liz NSA / Bulk Collection Sen.
