As his plane skidded to a halt and then headed back to its parking space, Bill grabbed a phone and called an old friend— one of his most trusted legal advisers. xi xii Prologue “Bill said, ‘I want to bushwhack Loretta,’” the adviser recalled in an interview for this book.* “‘I’m going to board her plane. What do you think?’ And I said, ‘There’s no downside for you, but she’s going to take a pounding if she’s crazy enough to let you on her plane.’ “He knew it would be a huge embarrassment to Loretta when people found out that she had talked to the husband of a woman—the presumptive nominee of the Democratic Party— who was under criminal investigation by the FBI,” the adviser continued. “But he didn’t give a damn. He wanted to intimidate Loretta and discredit [FBI Director James] Comey’s investigation of Hillary’s emails, which was giving Hillary’s campaign agita.” Bill hung up the phone and turned to a Secret Service agent. “As soon as her plane lands,” he said, “get the attorney general on the phone and say the president would like to have a word with her.” Several minutes later, Loretta Lynch came on an encrypted phone line. Lynch owed the former president big time. Seventeen years before, he had appointed her U.S. attorney for the Eastern Dis- trict of New York, one of the highest profile prosecutorial posts in the country. Now, the man who had made her career was on the phone inviting himself to visit her on her plane, and Lynch couldn’t bring herself to say no. Bill walked across the seventy-five yards that separated his plane from hers. It was 108 degrees in Phoenix, and Bill later recalled that he could feel the heat through the soles of his shoes. * The source, who has been close to Bill Clinton for four decades, was interviewed twenty-five times for this book. Prologue xiii Meanwhile, his Secret Service detail and Lynch’s uniformed FBI agents were frantically scurrying around her plane, trying to secure the area. They ordered everyone to put away cell phones. No pictures of this meeting would be allowed. Bill shook hands with Lynch’s agents and nodded to the Air Force pilot standing at attention at the bottom of the stairs. “He told me he bounded up the stairs of her plane on pure adrenalin,” Bill’s adviser said. “It brought out the old fighter in him. During Hillary’s campaign, he’d been feeling weak; he didn’t have the fire in his belly. But his fury over the FBI witch-hunt of his wife, whom he loves with a passion despite all the shit he gets up to—that infuriated him. You can say anything you want about him, and he’ll let it go. But attack his wife, and he’ll try to destroy you.” Once inside Lynch’s plane, Bill turned on the Clinton charm. He gave Lynch’s shoulder an affectionate squeeze and shook hands with her husband, Stephen Hargrove. “Bill said he could tell that Loretta knew from the get-go that she’d made a huge mistake,” his adviser said. “She was literally trembling, shaking with nervousness. Her husband tried to com- fort her; he kept patting her hand and rubbing her back. “Bill made small talk about golf and grandchildren and [for- mer Attorney General] Janet Reno, and he kept at it for nearly a half hour. It didn’t make any difference what they talked about; all he wanted to do was send a message to everyone at Justice and the FBI that Hillary had the full weight of the Clinton machine, the Democratic Party, and the White House behind her. “It was clearly tortuous for Loretta. Bill told me later that he noticed there were beads of sweat on her upper lip. xiv Prologue “Like all attorneys general, Loretta is accustomed to being treated as royalty wherever she goes, but here she was sitting in her plane, entirely helpless, being intimidated by this wickedly clever old coyote, who had bushwhacked her on the Arizona desert.” Aspen Ideas Festival, Aspen, Colorado Friday, July 1, 2016 On the final day of the Aspen Institute’s annual summer get- together for self-congratulating liberal elites, Jonathan Capehart, a member of the Washington Post editorial board and an MSNBC contributor, interviewed Attorney General Loretta Lynch. It was four days since the airport encounter between Lynch and Bill Clinton, and in the public furor that ensued, every- one—Democrats and Republicans alike—agreed that the meet- ing had seriously compromised the FBI’s investigation into Hillary’s use of an unsecure private email system when she was secretary of state. Capehart and Lynch sat on a raised stage, a few feet apart— the thin, wiry journalist dressed incongruously in a dark wintry suit; the attorney general in a black dress, pink jacket, and a double strand of pearls. “You have a reputation of having the highest integrity, utmost, solid judgment,” Capehart began. “ . A lot of people were like . friends, supporters, backers, are saying, ‘What on earth was she thinking?’ talking to Bill Clinton?” “Well, I think that’s the question of the day, isn’t it?” Lynch replied, visibly squirming in her chair. “ . Certainly my meeting Prologue xv with him raises questions and concerns, and so, believe me, I completely get the question. .” She then launched into a long explanation of the process. “ . So back to my first question,” Capehart pressed Lynch. “The what-were-you-thinking question.” Lynch giggled nervously, but didn’t reply.

The news of her release was the first welcome sign in a troubling month that grounded Mrs. Clinton — preventing her from answering questions in Congress about the State Department’s handling of the lethal attack on an American mission in Libya or being present when President Obama announced Senator John Kerry as his choice for her successor when she steps down as secretary of state. “Her medical team advised her that she is making good progress on all fronts, and they are confident she will make a full recovery,” Philippe Reines, a senior adviser to Mrs. Clinton, said in a statement. Mrs. Clinton, 65, was admitted to NewYork-Presbyterian/Columbia hospital on Sunday after a scan discovered the blood clot. The scan was part of her follow-up care for a concussion she sustained more than two weeks earlier, when she fainted and fell, striking her head. According to the State Department, the fainting was caused by dehydration, brought on by a stomach virus. The concussion was diagnosed on Dec. 1 of 4 8/9/2016 11:01 PM Hillary Clinton Is Discharged From Hospital After Blood Clot - The New..

  • Hillary Clinton Emails Take Long Path to Controversy
    http://nyti.ms/1gmYzIi POLITICS Hillary Clinton Emails Take Long Path to Controversy By SCOTT SHANE and MICHAEL S. SCHMIDT AUG. 8, 2015 WASHINGTON — Earlier this summer, the inspector general of the nation’s intelligence agencies contacted the longtime lawyer for Hillary and Bill Clinton with a pointed question. Classified information had been found in a small sample of 30,000 messages from the former secretary of state’s private email account. The inspector general, I. Charles McCullough III, wanted to know from the lawyer, David E. Kendall, where copies of the message collection might still be stored. Mr. Kendall’s answer, like so much in the story of the Clinton emails, pointed in an unexpected direction. The official communications of the nation’s 67th secretary of state, it turned out, were handled by a little Colorado I.T. company, Platte River Networks, previously best known for being honored in 2012 as Denver’s “small business of the year.” Last week, F.B.I. agents showed up at Platte River’s modest brick building, opposite a candy factory. Now that government secrets had been found in Mrs. Clinton’s email, the agents wanted to know about the company’s security measures. Whether Americans believe Mrs. Clinton’s decision to use only a private email account for her public business is a troubling scandal well worth an F.B.I. inquiry, a pragmatic move blown out of proportion by Republican enemies, or something in between, may depend more on their partisan leanings than the facts of the affair itself. But the email account and its confusing reverberations have become a significant early chapter in the 2016 presidential race and a new stroke in the portrait of the Democrats’ leading candidate.

  • Blogging While Female: How Internet Misogyny Parallels "Real-World" Harassment
    Blogging While Female: How Internet Misogyny Parallels "Real-World" Harassment t Jill Filipovic In early March 2007, The Washington Post published a front-page article titled "Harsh Words Die Hard on the Web: Law Students Feel Lasting Effects of Anonymous Attacks."1 It detailed an online message board called AutoAdmit, wherein anonymous posters leave hundreds of comments every day about law school admissions, top schools, and law firms-along with sexualized and sexually aggressive comments about female law students, whose pictures are regularly posted for commenters to evaluate. All of the women quoted in the article asked to remain anonymous out of fear that the posts on the message board might have negative consequences for their employment prospects. The article hit a nerve-because I was one of the women whose pictures and personal information were posted on AutoAdmit. I found my name on AutoAdmit just after starting my first semester of law school at New York University. A fellow student emailed me a link to messages about "Jill F at NYU," and I took a look around the board. My name came up several times, and was clearly a running joke that I didn't get- someone would post something like, "Did an NYU student just spew on himself in torts?" and another would respond, "Was it Jill F?" Other posts made it clear that people on the board knew where I had spent the previous summer, what I looked like, and even the ethnicity of my boyfriend. Some anonymous commenters mentioned meeting me or seeing me at school.

  • The Amateur a New Biography of Obama by Edward Klein Called the Amateur Has Rocketed to No
    Book Review Excerpts: Edward Klein’s new best seller: The Amateur A new biography of Obama by Edward Klein called The Amateur has rocketed to No. 1 on the New York Times bestseller list. Here are some excerpts from reviews that have been done on the book. Click here for details. Excerpts of The Amateur reviews: Reverend Wright Scandal Among the book’s explosive allegations is an Obama team attempted quasi bribe of Reverend Jeremiah Wright. After Rev. Wright’s anti-American sermons surfaced in 2008, a close friend of Obama and fellow member of Wright’s church, Eric Whitaker, approached the reverend with a proposal. In a taped interview with Klein, Wright said Whitaker offered him — via e-mail, through an intermediary — $150,000 to stop preaching and appearing in the media until after the election. After Wright turned the offer down, Barack Obama set up a private meeting with him to urge him not to speak publicly during the campaign. Secret Service logs document that it took place, writes Klein. But Wright refused to cooperate and the meeting ended in frustration for Obama. Obama Team Response Efforts to discredit Klein’s book by Team Obama went into overdrive after the revelation. Certainly, Klein made errors in a previous book attacking Hillary Clinton, and his occasional sloppiness in his current book isn’t up to the standards of a New York Times Magazine editor, which he used to be. But Klein says he has tapes with Wright to back up his account, which also includes the charge that Obama relied on Whitaker to find a replacement preacher once Wright was dropped from an Obama event.
