(154,021 posts)the server matters, not for the partisan reasons. It is government dysfunction at it's highest. It is also a good place to find CONTINUITY IN FOREIGN POLICY REGARDLESS OF WHO OCCUPIES THE WHITE HOUSE GOING AT LEAST BACK TO REAGAN, if not further back. So yes, they do matter. It is not so much about her, but quite a bit about policy.
People are blind to that at their peril. Personally I cannot wait for the next batch. Don't worry, that material does not belong at a partisan board. The fact that it does not belong is also symptomatic of other dysfunctions and why DC cannot find it's way out of a wet paper bag. But when tribalism is this toxic, well...what can I say? The country will be the one to pay for this...nothing much.
Speaking fees, they matter, but not for partisan reasons either. They have to do with income inequality, likely some quid pro quo, which is legally against the law, but chiefly about inequality for the record, the quid pro quo is a problem all over the country, not specific to them.
It is also an issue that cannot be spoken about on a partisan board. In the meantime, we are becoming a more corrupt society. Yes, there are folks who track that. Again, not an issue that can be brought up in a partisan board.
For the record, as far as hyper partisanship is concerned, the republicans get the hyper lions share in this, but democrats are not quite innocent lambs to the slaughter.
As I said, once the antisemitism becomes undeniable, I will simply walk away, and make sure my passport is up to date. It is what it is.
