QOTD: "On June 9, at the outset of her tour for her book 'Hard Choices,' Clinton's now-famous comment about being 'dead broke' on leaving the White House aired during an ABC News interview. By that point, the two had already made over $11 million in speaking fees for the year. The day after the comment became public, the couple gave three speeches, grossing $700,000 in fees." --Phillip Bump, "The Clintons Made $700,000 From Speeches The Day After Hillary's 'Dead Broke' Comments", Washington Post

I guess when your husband wears a wrist watch that costs more than the total annual value of the "benefits" of many people who on welfare, the concept of being "dead broke" has an entirely different meaning. But that Hillary would offer this up with a straight face and that the news media would let that excuse pass without blinking is yet another example of how liberals change the meaning of the words and memes to advance their Agenda. Once again showing that he who controls the language controls the outcome of the "conversation", which is I guess why Hillary frequently scolds the rest of us about which topics we need to have a national "conversation" about.

REVEALED: THE SECRET IMMIGRATION CHAPTER IN OBAMA’S TRADE AGREEMENT
by ALEX SWOYER 10 Jun 2015 Washington, DC
Discovered inside the huge tranche of secretive Obamatrade documents released by Wikileaks are key details on how technically any Republican voting for Trade Promotion Authority (TPA) that would fast-track trade deals like the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) trade deal would technically also be voting to massively expand President Obama’s executive authority when it comes to immigration matters.

The mainstream media covered the Wikileaks document dump extensively, but did not mention the immigration chapter contained within it, so Breitbart News took the documents to immigration experts to get their take on it. Nobody has figured how big a deal the documents uncovered by Wikileaks are until now. (See below)
