    EMAILID 10587 Discussion of the Top Secret emails that were on the Clinton private server. 2015 November. Podesta and others are hoping that a NYT story about these Top Secret emails will not get confirmed. https://wikileaks.org/podesta-emails/emailid/10587

    EMAILID 10530 More media collusion and abuse. It's like some reporters are actually working for the Clinton campaign directly. Reuters reporter Mark Hosenball going to John Podesta with a document he obtained. Did he get it from a source in confidence? Was he given the document during his work as a journalist? Who knows, but he is very determined to get the information he obtained as a journalist to the Clinton machine: "I have run across a rather interesting document which outlines in detail the principal current objectives of the House Benghazi Committee, and was wondering if you might have a minute or two to discuss this. If you are anywhere near 1333 H in next day or two I might even show the document to you" https://wikileaks.org/podesta-emails/emailid/10530

    EMAILID 10313 In response to a NYPost tweet suggesting Bloomberg gaining support to run for president. Neera Tanden and Howard Wolfson begin a conversation. Bloomberg running would create huge problems for the Hillary campaign. (Note how the first instinct of these people are to try to bribe their way out of a problem with offering positions) 2015 June, Neera Tanden-"Is there something Mike Bloomberg would want to do in his life in an Admin? Is like Ambassador to China way too small?" Howard Wolfson- "Secty of state Which ain't gonna happen" Tanden "Something to know for down the road." . So Bloomberg wants to be Secretary of State, but it won't happen (guess that position is already sold to someone else?) https://wikileaks.org/podesta-emails/emailid/10313

    EMAILID 10423 Maggie Haberman from the failing New York Times gives advance warning about a "big story" in the works about the minimum wage. Both in NYC and at the federal level. After this warning Hillary staffers frantically trying to decide what their position should be on the NY minimum wage. It is a good thing that Maggie warned them in advance otherwise it might have been an embarrassing situation! https://wikileaks.org/podesta-emails/emailid/10423

    EMAILID 10461 They must have been pretty panicked about the rape accusation against Bill Clinton because as soon as they were mentioned in a tweet, it was immediately reported to John Podesta : This tweet that was reported for Podesta's attention was posted in Dec 2015 and amassed a massive ten retweets ever since. Clearly they are very scared about the rape issue that they so closely track every tweet about it. https://wikileaks.com/podesta-emails/emailid/10461

    Confidence in candidate and campaign or knowing the fix was in?


    From:brentbbi

    To: john.podesta

    Date: 2015-07-01 23:11

    Subject: Campaign money and negative ads....

    John, one thought worth considering would be for HRC to offer leadership for a better kind of politics by suggesting Democratic candidates agree to not run negative ads against each other during the primaries. A modern version of Reagan's 11 commandment of Republicans not attacking each other. She would get credit with voters for trying, Bernie would almost certainly agree and O'Malley doesn't matter at this point and probably won't.... HRC could then spend money running positive ads about herself, juxtaposed against Republicans, which helps her favorable and trust numbers, draws a nice contrast between her and Republicans, and when she has to go negative when Republicans do, she has a strong foundation of having campaigned for a higher standard of politics which voters want....

    Frankly I thought it was dumb for McCaskill and Gutierrez to be attacking Bernie. We are going to need his voters to turn out in November for HRC, he won't be nominated. I am doing the opposite, repeatedly writing friendly and positive pieces about Bernie as an HRC supporter, and when the time is right I will have money in the bank with him and his people as a liberal to urge them to come out in force to vote for HRC.....which is not a given, and we won't have much margin for error in a close election.....Brent

    EMAILID 12063List of media personalities who went to the "off the record" private party in the personal home of John Podesta. Includes many corrupt, in the tank-for-Hillary journalists like John Heillman, Mark Halperin, Maggie Haberman (colluding in other emails with the Hillary campaign) and many others. Largest amount of invitees who said yes to the private party are from the NYT, Bloomberg, MSNBC, CNN . Seems to nicely reflect the level of corruption and pro-Hillary bias. This is April 2015 so they were influencing and corrupting journalists for a long time and their investment clearly paid off. https://wikileaks.org/podesta-emails/emailid/12063

    EMAILID 11580 Brent Budowsky writes to podesta 2016 February : "In the last 48 hours a) Hillary and her campaign have begun to question Bernie's integrity and b) older feminists are beginning a civil war against younger women with idiot comments such as younger women support Bernie to get laid. What would be the reaction if Bill Clinton, George Bush or Harry Reid comments such as this? Or that younger women must support Hillary for the sole reason that she is a woman? Team Clinton has no idea the danger they are causing of creating such an intense antipathy towards Hillary that many Bernie supporters and younger women will not vote for her in November. I had coffee today with a female college senior who is an intern with the Obama administration---the daughter of a Democrat who has worked for senior Democrats who asked me to look after her while she is in Washington, who told me "I just hate her so much I might even vote for a Republican but I will never vote for her." And she doesn't even support Bernie." https://wikileaks.org/podesta-emails/emailid/11580

    EMAILID 11915 Big discussion inside the Hillary campaign whether to take money from people who are registered as "foreign agents" according to the FARA, the Foreign Agents Registration Act. The final decision? taking the money from foreign agents: "Hi all – we do need to make a decision on this ASAP as our friends who happen to be registered with FARA are already donating and raising." Robby Mook-"I'm ok just taking the money and dealing with any attacks. Are you guys ok with that?" Palmieri "Take the money!!" https://wikileaks.org/podesta-emails/emailid/11915

    Bill Clinton tells the truth about their plans to frame Trump with friendly New York Times in february!! "President Clinton… Clinton, like others, thinks that… only a well-financed, concerted campaign portrayed him as dangerous and bigoted will win… President Clinton (like Mrs. Clinton and many other Dems) thinks the single greatest weapon against Trump is Trump's own instinct to make outrageous, divisive, even hateful comments that can come across as unpresidential"

    https://wikileaks.org/podesta-emails/emailid/4664

    How on earth do you get "frame" out of this? It simply says what anyone with any sense could see from the beginning - that, left to his own devices, Trump will demonstrate his odious self; all HRC needed to do was stand back, let it happen, and capitalize on it when it does.

    We're told that President Clinton (like Mrs. Clinton and many other Dems) thinks the single greatest weapon against Trump is Trump's own instinct to > make outrageous, divisive, even hateful comments that can come across as > unpresidential. He, Mrs. Clinton, and the campaign all agree that they will > need to seize on opportunities to paint Trump as extremist and recklessly > impulsive.

    I have lived in the DC suburbs almost my entire life. Dinner parties with both politicians and reporters in attendance have been a fact of life here for all the decades I've been alive. Growing up reading the Washington Post, I loved the column with all the pictures of the parties. The most coveted invitation in town was the invitation to dinner from Katherine Graham herself, the publisher of the Washington Post. Her guests were always sworn to the utmost privacy, because she felt like her gatherings were places that people could speak freely about the issues of the time without fear of political backlash.

    If I were to do a historical search right now, I would probably discover that these dinners have occurred for as long as our Republic has existed. After all, Ben Franklin himself got started in business as a newspaper publisher -- and he sure loved the ladies, too.

    Again, the only thing that surprises me here is that people are surprised. There was a time when it was considered classy to attend such events. It used to be classy to respect people's privacy, too. I'm feeling nostalgic this morning for the good old days.

    EMAILID 11136 Neera Tanden admits: "I know this email thing isn't on the level. I'm fully aware of that. But her inability to just do a national interview and communicate genuine feelings of remorse and regret is now, I fear, becoming a character problem (more so than honesty). People hate her arrogant, like her down. It's a sexist context, but I think it's the truth." https://wikileaks.org/podesta-emails/emailid/11136

    There is a digital data “arms race” underway in which corporate giants such as Google and Facebook — and now AT&T, Comcast and Verizon — are assembling far-reaching dossiers on individuals. Nearly everything we do — online and off — is being swept up by a sophisticated and largely stealth data-mining machine. Our actions, behaviors, income, race, political interests and more are continually being scrutinized and fed into supercomputers that then make millisecond determinations about each of us (“can pay high rate of credit card interest,” “candidate for payday loan,” “worried about cancer or other illness,” “a teen that likes junk food,” “has this political leaning,” etc.).

    So it seems that you're just putting them out here without really sorting by apparent relevance. Or maybe you're choosing ones that seems more interesting to you? I'm kind of scratching my head here at what you're posting.

    There's 1000s of leaked/hacked emails that anyone can search by key word subject and etc. That's the cool thing about wiki they release ALL info in raw format without interpretation or commentary.

    Why yes, it's true that anything can be posted without interpretation or commentary; it's just not very compelling that way.
