    I think some of you fine folks here on QBN might be interested in a part time job working for Hillary. The pay looks good considering a few hours a week.

    • uh, where's the pay? I just see dollars and not even, necessarily, dollars the Clintons spent. Her husband makes $2million/yr.formed

    “Wednesday Hillary Clinton Is DONE!” Claims Julian Assange’s Statement, This Will End Her...


    "The Founder of WikiLeaks, Julian Assange, could reveal the anticipated “October surprise” we’ve all become familiar with much earlier than expected. Julian Assange is scheduled to make an announcement on Wednesday from his balcony. Hillary probably has a bad feeling about his, for sure."

    Florida’s solar amendment designed to mislead voters.

    • some people suck hard
      ********
    • people need to make the intelligent choice.
      ********
    • but i still favor a future using solar energy
      ********
    • sounds like a good plan. why should solar power be subsidized by the many and poor for the rich and few who can afford the infrastructure for profit
      ********
    • for once self interested protectionism is actual serving the best interests
      ********
    • because the people are trying to get shit done. misleading people is not the way to accomplish shit. don't you think? you like misled?
      ********
    • *being misled? lol.
      ********
    • deathboy, i don't think the entire solar power has to be subsidized. I think the gov't can partake in the plan since it has good resources of space and money
      ********
    • government investing into itself for things like self driving cars nationwide powered by solar sounds great.
      ********
    • since1979 im not sure about the misleading. Not my state and not familiar with how they are being sold
      ********
    • just commenting on the actual policy. I did miss that they didnt open possibility for other people to sell direct. but i can see why a gov monopoly might have
      ********
    • issue with that. much like cabbie monopolies vs uber. different playing rules create uncompetitive advantages. if they allowed it
      ********
    • they might have to forego profit controls on the regulated power companies. who knows what happens by what rule makers. could be good or bad
      ********
    • naw gov should not be involved. space can be purchased privately and if its a good thing people will private invest
      ********
    • and self driving cars and solar panel sounds great but at what cost? and to whom? personally they dont sound great to me and i would spend a dime
      ********
    • well maybe on solar panels if the infrastructure cost was an investment that would yield savings and was affordable withotu any subsidization bubbles

    The Choice 2016 (full film) | FRONTLINE
    Published on Sep 27, 2016

    The dueling stories of Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump as they battle for the presidency.

    Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump are two of the most polarizing presidential candidates in modern history. Veteran FRONTLINE filmmaker Michael Kirk goes beyond the headlines to investigate what has shaped these two candidates, where they came from, how they lead and why they want one of the most difficult jobs imaginable.

    Hillary Clinton considered drone attack on Julian Assange - report:

    https://www.rt.com/usa/361459-se…

    The teased leak, dubbed an “October Surprise” is thought to be damaging for Clinton before the presidential elections in November.

    The announcement will now be made at Wikileaks’ 10-year anniversary celebration in Berlin on Tuesday. Assange will address the event via video leak.
