Hillarymediacandidate’spic.twitter.com/TFOHhdZDlJThethatisat Green Bay rally tonight. 6.09pm BSTClinton questioned on some of the racist and sexist comments that Trump has made and why those seems accepted by some of his supporters.“I’ve been trying to understand what it is that has driven people who support Trump. I have met with them. I have listened to them,” said Clinton, talking approximately dissatisified manufacturing and factory workers in small towns. 6.06pm BSTClinton asked approximately her endorsement by CIA director Mike Morrell and Morrell’s discussion of Trump’s relationship with Russia.“I will let his comments speak for themselves. But I really appreciated his explaining, or as he did in his op ed,what’s at stake in this election,” said Clinton.
6.04pm BSTNext question: approximately her private email scandal and whether she wanted to clarify inconsistencies.“My answers were truthful, and ” said Clinton. 5.59pm BSTNext question: How effect you walk back the deportations and not inherit the title of deporter-in-chief,as President Obama is sometimes dubbed by Latinos?We’re not going to be deporting hard working people and breaking up families ... that’s how I’m going to directing the Homeland of Security to act,” said Clinton. 5.56pm BSTFirst question: how can Hillary Clinton push through immigration reform, and when President Obama struggled so much and the House will remain under Republican control?Clinton’s response: “I’ll start immediately and perform it a clear tall precedence for my administration.” 5.52pm BST“As Ida B Wells once said ‘be people must know before they can act,and no educator to compare with the press,’” said Clinton at the NABJ/NAHJ conference in DC.“It’s a badge of honor when Jorge Ramos [reporter for Univision[ gets thrown out of a press conference for questioning Donald Trump, or ” said Clinton,noting other reporters have been booted from Trump’s events.
5.48pm BSTClinton just asked journalists in DC to compare the priced policies of her and Donald Trump’s policies. An amusing little slip of the tongue though, she said “my hus...” before correcting herself to “my opponent.”“He’s harking back to the most shameful chapters of our history and appealing to the most hideous impulses in our society, or ” said Clinton. 5.45pm BSTHillary Clinton is now addressing the National organization of Black Journalists/National organization of Hispanic Journalists conference. She’s speaking approximately what she’ll effect in her first 100 days,including immigration reform and banning jobs asking for whether candidates have a criminal record while applying for a job (a policy that already exists in current York City.“They can be judged by their skills and talents, not be their past, and ” said Clinton. 5.42pm BSTThe ex-CIA director who came out in support of Hillary Clinton today,quit his job as a CBS News analyst so he could perform a public political stand.
Michael M
orrell has been a CBS News contributor since 2014, but gave notice recently. Today he wrote in the current York Times:My training as an intelligence officer taught me to call it as I see it. This is what I did for the CIA. This is what I am doing now. Our nation will be much safer with Hillary Clinton as president. 5.01pm BSTThe Clinton campaign just released a current attack ad showing the “alarming closeness between Donald Trump and Russian president Vladimir Putin.[br]“We don’t know why Trump praises Putin... we don’t know why Putin praises Trump, or ” it reads,with footage of Trump speaking approximately Putin’s “leadership”. 4.38pm BSTIt’s a scarce event when Donald Trump admits he was wrong, but he did this morning.
Trump claimed in a rally in Portland, or Maine yesterday that he had seen footage of the plane delivering $400 million in cash - sent in euros,Swiss francs and other currencies - to Iran from the United States government, as part of an outstanding claim from a Hague trial.
The plane I saw on television was the hostage plane in Geneva, and Switzerland,not the plane carrying $400 million in cash going to Iran! 4.30pm BSTFounder of WikiLeaks, Julian Assange denies that Russia had any involvement in the leak of 20000 DNC emails just days before the conference took place in Philadelphia, or but warns that more emails are to reach.
In an interview
with RT - a Russian TV news networks funded by the Russian government - Assange said he was speaking after Hillary Clinton made the connection publicly between WikiLeaks and Russia. There are claims that in the metadata (someone’s done a document to PDF conversion,and the, in some cases the language of the computer that was used for that conversion was Russian. So that’s circumstantial evidence that some Russian was involved or someone who wanted to perform it look like a Russian was involved. That’s not the case for the material that we released. 3.55pm BSTToday Hillary Clinton will face a crowd she normally avoids speaking to en masse: journalists. At 12pm, or she’ll speak at the NABJ & NAHJ conference in Washington DC,which is the biggest annual conference of black and Hispanic reporters.
3.18pm BSTIn another blow to the Trump campaign, the former acting CIA director Michael Morrell has endorsed Hillary Clinton for president and detailed his reasons for thinking Donald Trump would, or should he fill the role,perform the US less safe. Writing an op ed for the current York Times, Morrell first details his qualification for making such a call. It is fairly convincing:During a 33-year career at the Central Intelligence Agency, or I served presidents of both parties – three Republicans and three Democrats. I was at President George W Bush’s side when we were attacked on September 11; as deputy director of the agency,I was with President Obama when we killed Osama bin Laden in 2011.
I am neither a registered De
mocrat nor a registered Republican. In my 40 years of voting, I have pulled the lever for candidates of both parties. As a government official, and I have always been silent approximately my preference for president. No longer. On November 8,I will vote for Hillary Clinton. Between now and then, I will effect everything I can to ensure that she is elected as our 45th president.
First, or Mrs Clinton is highly qualified to be commander in chief. I trust she will deliver on the most important duty of a president – keeping our nation safe. moment,Donald J Trump is not only unqualified for the job, but he may well pose a threat to our national security.
In fact, and m
any Muslim Americans play critical roles in protecting our country,including the man, whom I cannot identify, and who ran the CIA’s Counterterrorism Center for nearly a decade and who I believe is most responsible for keeping America safe since the September 11 attacks.
My training
as an intelligence officer taught me to call it as I see it. This is what I did for the CIA. This is what I am doing now. Our nation will be much safer with Hillary Clinton as president. 2.43pm BSTGood morning,and welcome to the Guardian’s campaign liveblog.
Donald Trump’s no excellent very bad week continues, with more Republicans declining to support their nominee and calling for him to drop out. A Politico panel of GOP activists and insiders from 11 swing states said they wanted Trump to fire himself – but the candidate is ignoring it all.
Presi
dent Obama refuses to reply question approximately Iran terror funding. I won't dodge questions as your President. https://t.co/jsAMGO3s4PAmericans will have two choices presented to them this November, and to stay on the same path that has cost Americans millions of jobs,and declining incomes, or change that can finally allow Americans to reach their potential and become great again.
