Blowback? Kappa Alpha Psi Chapter At S.C. State Boycotts Clinton Event

Seem like they weren't trying to be props.

"They wanted us to come out and stroll, but I told them I didn't want to do it,” said O’Connor, a senior from Prince George’s County, Maryland, told BuzzFeed News. “Kappa Alpha Psi is not strolling. This is not the time or place to be strolling. That would just be taking away from the time people should be asking her questions.”

Bernie Sanders Opens Up About His Jewish Background

“I’m very proud of my heritage,” Sanders said. “And what comes to mind so strongly is a kid growing up in Brooklyn and seeing people with numbers on their wrist; you probably have not seen that but those were the people coming out of the concentration camps, and knowing that a good part of my family was killed by the Nazis. And that lesson that I learned as a very young person is that politics is serious business and when you have a lunatic like Hitler gaining power, 50 million people died in World War II. So I am very proud to be Jewish and I’m very proud of my heritage.”

Meet The Woman Who Asked Hillary Clinton About ‘Natural Hair’

"So was Gray pleased with Clinton’s answer?

“Yes and no,” she said. “I liked what Clinton had to say on the subject even though she didn’t really answer my original question. I asked about what she would do to help fix broken racial relations not what she thought about them. She listed what needed to be done and I agree on that, but she didn’t mention any plan that she had.”

New York Times: Mrs. Clinton, Show Voters Those Transcripts

"Everybody does it,” is an excuse expected from a mischievous child, not a presidential candidate. But that is Hillary Clinton’s latest defense for making closed-door, richly-paid speeches to big banks, which many middle-class Americans still blame for their economic pain, and then refusing to release the transcripts."

Spy agencies say Clinton emails closely matched top secret documents: sources

"WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. spy agencies have told Congress that Hillary Clinton's home computer server contained some emails that should have been treated as "top secret" because their wording matched sections of some of the government's most highly classified documents, four sources familiar with the agency reports said.

The two reports are the first formal declarations by U.S. spy agencies detailing how they believe Clinton violated government rules when highly classified information in at least 22 email messages passed through her unsecured home server."

Hillary Clinton’s Vote for 2007 Immigration Reform Excluded Same-Sex Couples

"The 2007 legislation did nothing to include LGBT same-sex couples. I did not see either Hillary Clinton or Bernie Sanders say or do much to help us when it came to including UAFA in CIR. But one thing I did see was that Bernie refused to vote for the legislation that persisted in our exclusion, and Hillary is now bragging about voting for it."
