Staffer who set up Hillary Clinton’s private email server skips out on Congress as two consultants refuse to testify
WASHINGTON — The former State Department employee who set up Hillary Clinton’s private email server refused to show up in Congress Tuesday, as two other former staffers asserted their Fifth Amendment rights against self-incrimination to avoid testifying.
Bryan Pagliano defied a congressional subpoena and didn't attend a hearing Tuesday morning. And while House Oversight Committee Chairman Jason Chaffetz (R-Utah) let tech consultants Paul Combetta and Bill Thornton depart after they repeatedly invoked the Fifth, he clearly wasn’t pleased about Pagliano's snub.
“He made the decision not to appear and there are consequences for that," Chaffetz said, saying Pagliano "thumbs his nose" at Congress with his refusal to participate in House Republicans' latest attempts to stir up trouble for Clinton over her use of a private email server.
“If anybody's under any illusion I'm going to let go of this and let it just sail off into the sunset, they are very ill-advised," he said.
Pagniano's attorney had said he was willing to appear before a closed session to invoke his Fifth Amendment rights, but wouldn't show up in front of the cameras. He’s previously appeared in order to invoke those rights, and Democrats rolled their eyes at Chaffetz's bluster, with committee Ranking Member Elijah Cummings (D-Md.) calling it an "absolute abuse of authority."
One man who did testify was Justin Cooper, a former Bill Clinton aide who had supervised Pagliano in setting up the server. He said while he’d helped destroy Hillary Clinton's old Blackberrys as she got new phones, he'd always sought to back up the information.
"It was not in any way to destroy or hide any information at all," Cooper testified. "In fact, the opposite would be the case in that I was going out of my way to preserve all the information that was on those devices."
Former State Department technology adviser Bryan Magliano did not show up at all, leaving an empty seat behind his name-card at the witness table. His lawyer said Magliano was willing to invoke his 5th Amendment rights in a closed session, but not an open one.
ReplyDeleteChaffetz excused Combetta and Thornton after they invoked their 5th Amendment rights in response to several questions, but the chairman sounded angry about Magliano’s refusal to appear.
"He made the decision not to appear and there are consequences for that," the chairman said. "We'll look at the full range of options, but if anybody's under any illusion I'm going to let go of this and let it just sail off into the sunset, they are very ill advised. ... I have no intention of going into executive session when he thumbs his nose at the United States Congress and wastes its time."
A top adviser to Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump said the witnesses’ decisions to rely on their 5th Amendment rights reflects poorly on Clinton.
"The fact that the individuals who maintained Hillary Clinton’s secret email server pleaded the Fifth shows once again why she can’t be trusted in the White House," Trump adviser Jason Miller said. "Clinton’s server clearly ran afoul of the law and these developments only further demonstrate that she lacks the judgment to be president."

I just can't fathom why all Hillary's IT aides are taking the 5th before the hearing in Congress today.
Time and time again. In fact, one didn't even show up, taking a blanket 5th.
Here's an example of a typical Question and Answer:
Congressman:
"Who told you to delete or destroy Hillary Clinton's e-mails ?"
IT Aide:
"I politely decline to answer and invoke my 5th Amendment privileges"
I don't get it.
That seems like a simple enough question.
It almost seems as if they are hiding something.
Rufus, would you have any idea why all of Hillary's IT Aides are taking the 5th, and refusing to testify ?

Russian scientists are ‘besieged’ by polar bears at a remote Arctic post

Polar bears 'besieged' remote Arctic weather post

A group of hungry polar bears are circling Russian scientists at a remote weather outpost in the Arctic. (Jenny Starrs/The Washington Post)
A team of Russian weather experts claim that their station on an ice-covered Arctic isle is "besieged" by polar bears, according to a report by Russian news agency TASS.
The five researchers charged with staffing the outpost on Troynoy Island say that there are about 10 adult polar bears as well as cubs circling their base. A female polar bear spends nights perched outside the station's windows, making it dangerous for the scientists to exit. They have reportedly run out of flares and have lost at least one of their dogs to the arctic beasts.
The presence of the polar bears has made carrying out meteorological observations difficult, reports TASS. Russian law outlaws killing polar bears, a globally-listed endangered species, so scientists in the Arctic are mostly equipped with flares and guns with rubber bullets....

Things are getting a lot better for the working poor
ReplyDeleteLast year marked the greatest improvement in the typical American family's finances on record, according to a new annual report from the Census Bureau, especially for the working poor.
The median household income before taxes increased 5.2 percent, the report published Tuesday showed, the largest increase in nearly a half-century of data. Average incomes increased more rapidly for poorer families than rich ones.
"In the last year, we’ve seen steady job growth," said Michael Strain, an economist at the conservative American Enterprise Institute. "What we’re looking at is the recovery delivering, in a way that we’ve all kind of hoped it would."
The share of overall income enjoyed by the poorest one-fifth of households increased by 3 percent.
The change in the share of income claimed by more affluent groups of households was not statistically significant.
Lawrence Mishel, president of the liberal Economic Policy Institute, also attributed the gains for poorer households to a rapid decline in unemployment, from 5.7 percent at the beginning of last year to 4.9 percent at the beginning of this year.
"Their hourly wages also get a boost from having less competition among workers for jobs," Mishel said. "We may finally start seeing employers having to compete for workers."
Those gains also appeared in the data for specific demographic groups that tend to be worse off.
Incomes for women living alone increased 8.7 percent last year, while the incomes of married couples increased 4.3 percent. The incomes of younger householders increased more than the incomes of older householders. For householders ages 25 to 34, the increase was 5.6 percent, while incomes for those ages 55 to 64 increased just 3.5 percent.

More than $9 million of Department of State money has been funneled through the Peace Corps to a nonprofit foundation started and run by Secretary of State John Kerry’s daughter, documents obtained by The Daily Caller News Foundation show.
The Department of State funded a Peace Corps program created by Dr. Vanessa Kerry and officials from both agencies, records show. The Peace Corps then awarded the money without competition to a nonprofit Kerry created for the program.
Initially, the Peace Corps awarded Kerry’s group — now called Seed Global Health — with a three-year contract worth $2 million of State Department money on Sept. 10, 2012, documents show. Her father was then the chairman of the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations, which oversees both the Department of State and the Peace Corps.
Seed secured a four-year extension in September 2015, again without competition. This time, the Peace Corps gave the nonprofit $6.4 million provided by the Department of State while John Kerry was secretary of state.

DeleteAmerican cities are getting richer. Rural areas are getting left behind.
ReplyDeleteThe latest Census Bureau data on income and poverty has good news for almost everyone. It shows the first significant growth in average household incomes in almost a decade — 5.4 percent between 2014 and 2015 — with all races, age groups, and regions of the country enjoying gains.
But one group that didn’t have a lot to celebrate from the new numbers were people in rural areas:
The census counted more than 20 million households as being located outside any metropolitan area — that is, in rural America. And it found that these households saw their incomes drop by 2 percent between 2014 and 2015: from $45,534 to $44,657.
There were 63 million households inside metropolitan areas but outside the area’s principal city — that is, in the suburbs. These households enjoyed healthy income growth of 4 percent, from an already high $61,671 to $64,144.
But the biggest gains accrued to the 41 million households located in the principal city of a metropolitan area. They saw their incomes grow an impressive 7.3 percent. Their incomes went from $47,095 to $51,378.
In short, this is proving to be a fundamentally urban economic recovery. Cities are gaining income faster than their suburbs, which in turn are doing better than rural areas. And while suburban households still earn more, on average, than urban households, city-dwellers are closing the gap.
This recovery isn’t like other recent ones
DeleteThe latest census numbers confirm a trend that I’ve reported on before: The current recovery is seeing big cities reap the largest economic gains. That was a big change from the economic boom of the 1990s, which saw less populous areas gaining more.
In the past, smaller counties tended to grow faster than larger counties. This made a certain amount of sense — large counties like Los Angeles or Dallas were already expensive and crowded places to live, so it was easier for economic growth to happen in smaller towns or outlying suburbs.
But in the latest recovery, the pattern has reversed. The largest counties saw the fastest growth in jobs, with Los Angeles County, Miami-Dade County, and Kings County (Brooklyn) leading the way. Meanwhile, the least populous counties have been suffering the weakest recovery in decades.
To be clear, this chart isn’t directly comparable to the new census numbers, since it shows gains in jobs rather than incomes. And it breaks regions of the country down somewhat differently — based on county populations rather than whether a region is a principal city, suburb, or rural area.
But both charts show the same clear pattern: Economic gains are flowing disproportionately to urban areas, while less populous areas are getting left behind.

Two witnesses take the Fifth and one fails even to honor a subpoena.

.
Sept. 13, 2016 7:09 p.m. ET
The Clinton entourage is known for their faulty memories under oath, but Bryan Pagliano is setting a new standard. The former Clinton aide chose Tuesday to ignore a congressional subpoena.
The House Oversight Committee held a hearing to dig into some of the issues surrounding Hillary Clinton’s private email server. Mr. Pagliano, who worked as an IT specialist for Mrs. Clinton’s 2008 campaign and set up the private server in her New York residence in 2009, was issued a subpoena compelling attendance.
Mr. Pagliano’s lawyers replied in a letter to the committee that their client couldn’t be bothered. They said that since he’d previously appeared before a different House committee and asserted his Fifth Amendment rights, any effort to make him appear again “furthers no legislative purpose and is a transparent effort to publicly harass and humiliate our client for unvarnished political purposes.”
Two other witnesses who helped maintain Mrs. Clinton’s server— Paul Combetta and Bill Thornton of Platte River Networks—did show up. But then they took the Fifth as well.
Mr. Pagliano might think his presence serves no purpose, but that’s not his call. Oversight Chairman Jason Chaffetz is conducting a legitimate inquiry into Mrs. Clinton’s failure to preserve federal records while Secretary of State. He’s entitled to put questions to those involved with the server that allowed her to take government work off-grid. Mr. Chaffetz says he is considering what action he will take against the subpoena-dodger, but he says that “if anybody is under any illusion that I’m going to let go of this and just let it sail off into the sunset, they are very ill-advised.”.....

ReplyDeleteOh my: New polls show Trump leading in Nevada and … Colorado
posted at 1:31 pm on September 14, 2016 by Allahpundit
Good lord. Colorado has been solid blue for nearly two months. If that state is back on the board now, Clinton won’t be the only member of her team to faint this week.
A Reuters/Ipsos survey released this week gave Trump a narrow edge in a two-way race, 43 percent to 41 percent — his first lead in Colorado in the 2016 election. It follows two other recent polls showing the presidential race as a dead heat or within 5 percentage points…
“Anybody who thought Hillary Clinton was going to win the state of Colorado by double digits was dreaming,” said Ridder, a veteran of six presidential campaigns. “The history in Colorado shows that it is difficult for a Democrat or a Republican to get over 50 percent of the vote.”…
Republican pollster David Flaherty at Magellan Strategies conducted a Aug. 29-31 poll that showed Clinton with a 41 percent to 36 percent lead among likely voters in a four-way race, just outside the 4.4 percentage point margin of error.
But he cautions against Trump’s camp getting too optimistic. “Trump is not gaining in momentum or support. Gary Johnson is,” he said, referring to the Libertarian candidate for president, who is getting significant support in Colorado.
Clinton led by 12 in one poll of Colorado in early August, then by eight in a poll taken a week later, then by five in the Magellan poll mentioned above, and now she trails by two in the latest Reuters poll. WaPo’s recent 50-state survey found her leading by two head-to-head in CO and dead even with Trump at 37 percent in the four-way race. There’s every reason to believe the state has tightened significantly. What Flaherty says about Johnson is true, too: Colorado is consistently one of his best states. He hit 15 percent in one poll taken there this month and reached 16 percent in another, then hit 16 again in the WaPo poll. There’s a strong libertarian base in CO, especially among young voters; Johnson actually topped Trump for second place among the 18-29 group in one poll of the state not long ago. If Trump pulls the upset there, it’s likely to be because Johnson is siphoning off enough young adults from Clinton to make a winning vote share for Trump in the mid-40s possible. Which is yet another reason why Trump is being foolish in not demanding that Johnson be allowed to debate. He could end up being a Nader to Hillary’s Al Gore because of his appeal to twentysomethings. If you’re Trump, whose base skews older, why wouldn’t you want him in the spotlight?
As for Nevada, yep, he’s ahead there now too. That’s not as much of a shock as Colorado since NV has been close throughout the summer, but this is further evidence of a Clinton slide. She led by four in Monmouth’s last poll of the state and now trails by two.....

Strikes in Syria
ReplyDeleteAttack, bomber, fighter and remotely piloted aircraft conducted 17 strikes in Syria:
-- Near Abu Kamal, a strike destroyed five ISIL supply routes.
-- Near Shadaddi, four strikes engaged an ISIL tactical unit and destroyed five vehicles and a vehicle bomb.
-- Near Raqqah, four strikes engaged an ISIL tactical unit and destroyed a vehicle, seven supply routes and an oil wellhead.
-- Near Dayz Ar Zawr, three strikes destroyed four ISIL oil tanker trucks, an oil tanker trailer, five vehicles and an oil wellhead.
-- Near Mara, five strikes engaged two ISIL tactical units and destroyed two fighting positions and three mortar systems and damaged another mortar system.
In addition, due to a delayed strike assessment two strikes near Dayz Ar Zawr that were conducted on Sept. 11 were not reported on the Sept. 12 strike release. The correct assessment reads:
-- Near Dayz Ar Zawr, two strikes destroyed four ISIL supply routes.
Strikes in Iraq
Attack and fighter aircraft conducted three strikes in Iraq, coordinated with and in support of Iraq’s government:
-- Near Mosul, three strikes engaged three ISIL tactical units and destroyed a vehicle, two tunnel entrances and four assembly areas.

Schraufnagel: Sex, drugs claims against Chappaqua teacher now a federal lawsuit
ReplyDeleteNew federal claims against ex-Chappaqua drama teacher Christopher Schraufnagel allege he had a five-year "coercive" sexual relationship with one student, engaged in oral sex with teens in school and on a class trip to Greece, and that students were "occasionally" drunk or high during performances.
"This first sexual assault of John Roe occurred between May 1, 2011, and June 24, 2011, on the 'catwalk' area above the auditorium, when Schraufnagel insisted that it was time for the 15-year-old to 'hook up' with him," the 37-page complaint said. "On the catwalk, Schaufnagel pushed John Roe to his knees and directed the frightened 15-year-old student to perform oral sex upon him."
"The two then rejoined the nearby students in the auditorium," the lawsuit said.

DeleteRivers of blood flow down Dhaka streets as Eid animal sacrifices stain Bangladesh roads red
ReplyDelete19:27, 14 Sep 2016
Updated 23:36, 14 Sep 2016
By Jon Dean
Grisly animal sacrifices for Eid combined with heavy rains have made the streets of one city run red with blood.
Police in the Bangladeshi capital Dhaka had allowed the traditional slaughter to take place in certain designated areas of the city.
However heavy downpours made many of the spots impossible to use.
The blood from the slaughtered liverstock, killed by some Muslims to mark Eid al-Adha, or the Feast of Sacrifice, mixed with the flood water - as can be seen in these dramatic pictures.

ReplyDeleteWells Fargo fired 5,300 workers for improper sales push. The executive in charge is retiring with $125 million.
Wells Fargo will be fined $185 million. That is a nit to a company making $20 billion a year. They write it off as a business expense in the same way drug cartels write off the loss of one of their shipments to the Coast Guard as a business expense.
The slobs at the lower levels will be fired. The executive in charge, Carrie Tolstedt, will walk away with $125 million when she retires this year. An 27-year veteran of the bank, Tolstedt ran the community banking division where regulators said aggressive sales goals fueled illegal behavior by bank employees...
Most telling is an earlier quote from WF CEO Strumpf who said Tolstedt 'represents the very culture of Wells Fargo'.
How true.
From the abuses that led to the 2008 financial crisis to the fixing of the Libor rate to numerous other high profile cases to the latest, Wells Fargo, the banking industry has proved itself unworthy of the slightest bit of trust. Yet, not one top executive of any large bank has suffered either financial pain or criminal prosecution, in fact they have walked away with $ millions, hundreds of $ millions.
Break up the banks, prosecute the criminals.

Levin’s family accused Bornstein of being “negligent and grossly reckless” for prescribing her barbiturates, morphine and valium “greatly in excess of appropriate dosages” and despite the drugs not being suitable for any condition for which she was being treated.
Levin, 52, “became addicted to narcotics” and was “rendered sick, sore, lame and disabled”, according to the lawsuit, which blamed Bornstein squarely for setting in motion a series of factors “all leading to her death” from the apparent drug ingestion and fall in 1998.
