Linda Tripp crawls out of her hole, tells Breitbart radio Bill had affairs with "thousands" of women [View all]

and naturally, Drudge is making this hilariously bad Wilt Chamberlain-esque fanfic his lead

"In a rare interview, Linda Tripp, a pivotal figure in the Monica Lewinsky scandal, revealed on Sunday it was common knowledge while she worked in the West Wing that Bill Clinton had affairs with “thousands of women.”

Speaking on “Aaron Klein Investigative Radio,” Tripp for the first time divulged that she personally knew another White House staffer aside from Lewinsky who was also having an affair with Clinton. That unnamed staffer was mentioned by Tripp in various depositions but she has not spoken about it publicly.

She charged that Hillary Clinton not only knew about her husband’s exploits, “She made it her personal mission to disseminate information and destroy the women with whom he dallied.”"


Yes, "thousands" of women coming in and out of a Secret Service protected White House day and night. That sounds totally probable.

In other crazy Clinton conspiracy news, Juanita is back as well, running to Breitbart Radio and proving once again that she has zero credibility (and, again, Drudge is pushing this nonsense front and center).

Her latest version of her constantly-changing story:

(I'm not giving them traffic by linking)

"She's changed her story a dozen times already, but now, she suddenly, magically remembers that Bill was "stalking" her:

She says that within a few weeks after Clinton allegedly raped her, he started to call her repeatedly with the aim of meeting again.

“I was shocked to say the least that he would have the audacity to call me after what he did to me,” Broaddrick said, speaking on “Aaron Klein Investigative Radio,” the popular Sunday night radio program.

She said that just a few weeks after the 1978 alleged sexual assault, “He called the nursing home that I owned and they patched the call through to my office and I didn’t know that it was him. And he immediately said, ‘Hi, this is Bill Clinton. I was just wondering when you were coming back to Little Rock again.’"


This garbage is being pushed hard by the crackpot right, and picked up by Trump and then regurgiatated by hacks like Halperin on MSNBC (where he absurdly claimed there was no difference between Clinton and Bill Cosby).

Should the Clintons hit back? Joe Conason's "The Hunting of the President" pretty much lays out the case to take this smear down, and shows how all these accusations were part of an orchestrated effort by rightwing operatives and the Arkansas Project.

I realize they feel, by acknowledging it, are they giving it more attention and furthering it. But the rightwing whisper campaign is already there, and it's spreading to the mainstream.
