A few years ago, my older brother and I were walking the Gettysburg Battlefield, mimicking the path of Pickett’s Charge. There is an enclosure around a bunch of trees about half-way across the field. My brother fancies himself a writer and he mentioned the “corps” of trees. I was confused and said, “do you mean the “copse” of trees?” I had to educate him. Educating an older sibling is satisfying......

On one occasion, a Dem’s campaign turned in to the FBI, briefing material stolen by an employee of a (American) media consulting firm working for the opposing campaign.

In 2016, Chairwoman of the DNC, Donna Brazile was outed by WikiLeaks for providing questions in advance of upcoming debates on at least two occasions, to the Clinton campaign. Florida Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman-Schultz was also outed for colluding with Hillary Clinton’s campaign against her opponent, Bernie Sanders.

As you can see from the above, just because one Dem candidate did the proper thing when offered an unfair advantage over an opponent does not mean they all have or do.

While there’s very little doubt that Clinton, herself, wasn’t at least aware of improper actions on the part of her allies/supporters, there’s no evidence suggesting that Mast knew of or had anything to do with using information gotten from Guccifer 2.0.

So, you are condemning them on a hypothetical without any real proof, nor accusations?
What importer action by Clinton?

Well, sure if he was 5, didn’t have staff and wasn’t running the entire country. Otherwise it’s either a complete blunder or he did it just to piss off half the country he hates.

Do your homework before posting. Brazile and Wasserman-Schultz were caught red handed by the released emails. Their own words proved their guilt, and neither of them denied their misdeeds.

Brazile was fired from CNN and Wasserman-Schultz had to step down as DNC Chairwoman.

As for Clinton, herself, even if she could argue ignorance of any collusion between her campaign and the DNC (extremely unlikely), she can’t explain away being given debate questions beforehand. She absolutely would’ve known that was improper.

Do you just enjoy acting like a dick or do you have a point to make?
 
Mast is my congresscritter. He's not a bad guy, and this is a funny mistake by him. My name is Brian Mast, and I approve of this picture, but no guarantees as to which Navy we're talking about. :lol:

His biggest fault is that despite his obvious wounds, he never met a war he did not like. He is, like Governor DeSantis, an Israel First sort of elected official.

No doubt both are wrong and unacceptable however, keep in mind that the consultant to Mast’s campaign did not know the origin of the information he obtained from Guccifer 2.0. Doesn’t make it okay, but is definitely a mitigating factor.

Bethesda Naval Hospital, established 1937, and it was literally less than a thousand feet from my bedroom window growing up.
(Well, the TOP of it anyway, peering through the trees) It was a fixture of my childhood and in later years, a place to hang out with my punk friends. Can't get away with that today, though! :lol:

It is now called "Walter Reed Military Medical Center" but that is because the OLD Walter Reed complex is mostly decommissioned and repurposed now by developers and the old Walter Reed staff was assimilated and merged with Bethesda Navy Hospital. The locals still call it Bethesda Naval Hospital.

The way it worked was, Walter Reed was the ARMY hospital and Bethesda Naval was....NAVY, of course.
Now they're all just one unit. It is NOT a VA hospital, it's a DoD hospital.
My opinion, MERGE DoD medical and VA medical, too much unnecessary duplication.
