First up – from Judge Andrew Napolitano writing at Newsmax:
Did the NSA Leak Hillary’s Emails? (excerpts)
In order to take everyone’s eyes off this intrusive and uncomfortable bouncing ball, the leadership of the DNC, in conjunction with officials of the Clinton campaign, blamed the release of the DNC emails on hackers employed by Russian intelligence agents. Many in the media picked up this juicy story and repeated it all last week.
But the Russians had nothing to do with it.

Last week, William Binney, a 30-year career official at the National Security Agency turned whistleblower, revealed the unthinkable. Binney, who devised the software that the NSA has used to capture the contents of emails and cellphone conversations of all in America but resigned from the NSA because of the unlawful and unconstitutional manner in which the software was used, told a Philadelphia radio audience that the DNC hacking was most likely done by NSA agents.
The intelligence community’s antipathy toward Clinton has two general sources. One is her misuse of emails containing state secrets. Among the top-secret emails that the FBI discovered on Clinton’s non-secure private servers were some that revealed the names of U.S. intelligence agents operating undercover in the Middle East.
Because Clinton emailed secrets to others who the FBI found were hacked by hostile foreign intelligence services and because she used a non-secure mobile email device while inside the territories of hostile governments, her “extremely careless” use of her emails resulted in the termination of the undercover work of those whose cover she caused to be revealed.
Many in the intelligence community also suspect that in some cases, U.S. undercover agents lost their lives because Clinton failed to keep their identities secret.

Accuracy in Media (AIM) asks, (with the answer obvious from our perspective) — Who’s Crazier—Trump or Obama?
Much has been dutifully reported by the usual suspects about Obama’s unusual injection into the 2016 political campaign saying that Trump is unqualified to be President, says crazy things, etc. Their “news” reports are in a tone or absent of rebuttal as if to agree with Obama without directly saying so. Obama’s remarks have been grandly, enthusiastically spread.
The AIM article by Cliff Kincaid makes a series of points about the “craziness” of Obama and Hilary compared to Trump. It is a very appropriate comparison — we will take Trump’s “craziness”, any day, particularly if one wants to maintain that Obama’s and Hillary’s behaviors are deliberative.
In response to the article, a commenter sent a link to a video purporting to be a professional analysis of Hillary’s mental condition. It should be acknowledged that aspects of Hillary’s behavior have other explanation ( the report did not get into the possibility of her being just plain evil) . Take it with a dab of salt. But as to the description of occasional exaggerated behaviors post brain injury, we can attest to similar observations of the sort as regards a family member who experienced a very serious stroke (CVA).
