ST. LOUIS –  Shortly before Donald Trump took the stage here in St. Louis, he finished a Facebook Live video press conference with Paula Jones, Kathleen Willey and Juanita Broaddrick—a more dramatic response to the tape on which he boasted of groping women than anyone could have imagined.

Of course, it’s been hard to imagine much of this reality-show campaign, but its most sensational, trash-talking elements—from Hillary Clinton’s possible role in her husband’s sexual misconduct to Trump talking about pursuing a married woman on “Access Hollywood”–collided on the Washington University stage.   Continue reading “The sex, lies and videotape debate: Trump struggles early but finishes strong”

The Clinton Foundation failed to properly file non-profit paperwork required by New York state for years and did not disclose government grants on its filings as required by law, yet Attorney General Eric Schneiderman gave it a pass.

A search of the New York charities database by The Post found that for the years 2010 through 2014, the Clinton Foundation was years late in submitting the required paperwork to raise money in New York — waiting until 2016.   Continue reading “Clinton Foundation was late to file paperwork, but got pass from AG”

Four Republican committee chairmen on Wednesday pressed Attorney General Loretta Lynch on what they termed “the unusual restrictions” placed on the FBI’s investigation into Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server while secretary of State.

In a letter to Lynch, they pointed to a pair of letters from Beth Wilkinson, an attorney for two of Clinton’s lawyers, that laid out a limited immunity agreement that the Department of Justice (DOJ) agreed to in exchange for cooperation with the investigation.   Continue reading “GOP chairmen slam ‘unusual restrictions’ on FBI Clinton probe”

Weed, California, home to around 2,500 people and just south of the Oregon border in the shadow of Mount Shasta, is best known for its offbeat name and its appearance in John Steinbeck’s classic “Of Mice and Men.”

But now this small town in Siskiyou County is the focal point in the fight between a community’s right to local water and a company’s right to sell it. In an area still recovering from the devastating 2014 Boles Fire, Weed is the David trying to find a voice against a Goliath that insists the town’s water is better served if it is bottled and exported to Japan.   Continue reading “French Billionaire Clashes With Rural California Town Over Water Rights”

More than 92 million Americans who were eligible to vote four years ago didn’t cast ballots. But politics in the Age of Trump has prompted editorial writers, Democratic partisans and even some Republicans to argue that Donald Trump is so unacceptable as a potential commander in chief that citizens have a heightened duty to show up to cast their ballot against him.   Continue reading “Propaganda Alert: Is it ethical to not vote this year for president?”
