Ok, let us know when you get there. By the looks of it, the travel will be a long one.

Balls in the face is more on topic than what you spout.

How is any of that the "truth"?

I mean, come on. The thing about conspiracy theories is, they are never true. That's their whole definition!

What are you talking about? No conspiracy theory ever true? LOL

There are countless theories about conspiracies that turned out to be truth and were proven... just to name a few:
The Dreyfus Affair, The Mafia, MK-ULTRA, Operation Mockingbird, Manhattan Project, Asbestos, Watergate, The Tuskegee Syphilis Study, Operation Northwoods, Testimony of Nayirah (1990), COINTELPRO programs against U.S. Civil Rights Activists (1960s), The Iran-Contra Affair, The BCCI Scandal, CIA Drug Running in Los Angeles (and a lot of other places), Gulf of Tonkin Incident, The Business Plot (1933), Conspiracy to Assassinate Hitler (1944), Operation Ajax, Operation Snow White, Operation Gladio, Innumerable CIA Assassinations (Church Committee), New World Order, Kennedy Assassination – 2nd Congressional Investigation (HSCA) into JFK's Assassination, 1919 World Series Conspiracy (Black Sox Scandal), Karen Silkwood's Murder (1974), CIA Mena, Arkansas Drug Smuggling (1980s), Bohemian Grove, Operation Paperclip, The Round Table, Order of the Illuminati, The Trilateral Commission, Big Brother (Shadow Government), The Federal Reserve Bank...

All of these are/were conspiracies or had conspiracies surrounding them. They were first denied. People said there's no such thing! Then were later proven to be true... in many cases people were forced to admit the truth, often in a count of law with penalties issued or other repercussions.

To make a blanket statement saying that no conspiracy theory was ever true is extremely ludicrous / ignorant. Someone who would say such a thing is either a [paid] troll or some kind controlled disinformation agent.

So Hillary has somehow managed to leave a mountain of bodies with no glimpse of evidence. I think that qualifies her for ninja status.

I recommend watching the netflix show Narco's.

People in power can easily cover their crimes. The mysterious deaths surrounding the Clinton's could easily be caused by the Clintons. All things considered, I think the Clinton death trail conspiracy theory is pretty believable.


I'm typically not one to buy into crazy theories, but I know full well that people will murder to maintain their power.

I'm surprised that people are ignoring Clinton's snub of the Mexican President.

Shows how much of a world leader she is, by ignoring an invitation by our neighbor and one of our strongest trading partners.

Anyway, the point being that people with money and power can easily make someone disappear with only suspicion pointing at them, which Pablo Escobar did multiple times.

Clinton Slams Trump But Blabbed About Briefing in 2008
NBCNEWS

Quote:
Hillary Clinton slammed Donald Trump for talking about a classified briefing he received — but she's done it, too.

"I think what he said was totally inappropriate, undisciplined," Clinton said at a news conference on Thursday, referring to Trump's claim that he could tell from the "body language" of his briefers that they were unhappy with President Obama.

"I would never comment on any aspect of an intelligence briefing I received," Clinton said.

But as a candidate for president in 2008, Clinton herself commented on a secret briefing, citing it twice in her criticism of the George W. Bush administration.

In a Feb. 25 speech, as a New York senator during the 2008 primaries, she said she had pushed the administration to provide information about their Iraq withdrawal plans.

"They didn't want to talk to us about it, as is their usual response," she said then. "We finally were able to secure a briefing which although classified, I can tell you was cursory. It did not inspire confidence in our readiness to do this important task of withdrawing our troops and equipment."

Clinton also cited the briefing in a Jan. 13, 2008 appearance on NBC's Meet the Press.

"Last spring, I asked for a briefing on what the planning was. Secretary of Defense and the Department of Defense basically said 'We're not going to tell you.' And I said, 'Well, yes you are.' We had such a briefing. It was classified. I can't talk about it, but the bottom line is it was cursory. I don't think that the Bush White House wants there to be much planning."

Clinton received the briefing while a candidate, but it was not a presidential candidate briefing. As a senator from New York serving on the armed services committee, she requested the briefing on Iraq withdrawal plans from the Bush administration.

The Clinton campaign said comparing the briefing to Trump's briefing was unfair.

"There's a difference between a security briefing done by the intel community, and an Iraq policy briefing by Bush's DoD," press secretary Brian Fallon tweeted.

"Members of Congress routinely exit policy briefings held by admin officials & express general dissatisfaction w/policy choices being made."

Trump has also come under fire for his comments from U.S. intelligence officials, who say briefers don't discuss policy and are trained not to betray their thoughts with body language.

In Bizarro World, it makes perfect sense for Clinton to call her opponent out for mishandling classified information. On Earth, however....

Let's see, claiming false equivalence when I wasn't equating anything, reducing a Democrat scandal to the most benign terms possible....

Score: 2 out of 10 Pleebos.

But not really.

1, Romney thought he was talking in private, Clinton knew she was being recorded.

2, Romney's comment insulted some potential voters, those insulted by Clinton are firmly in Trump's pocket camp.

Of course the two comments aren't literally the same, but there are multiple ways that they're comparable to each other. Both came to light in September, both involve presidential candidates trashing a stated percentage of the voters, both were viewed as gaffes that had to be walked back by the candidates, etc.

Yeah. If they were all deplorable, she might confuse them with her own supporters.

Actually 52 to 87%.
Data Reveals Hillary Clinton Was Right About Donald Trump’s ‘Deplorable’ Supporters
If anything, she was perhaps too kind in her assessment of the ugly side of Trump’s base.
