Who's buying this book??
For the first time, Hillary Rodham Clinton reveals what she was thinking and feeling during one of the most controversial and unpredictable presidential elections in history. Now free from the constraints of running, Hillary takes you inside the intense personal experience of becoming the first woman nominated for president by a major party in an election marked by rage, sexism, exhilarating highs and infuriating lows, stranger-than-fiction twists, Russian interference, and an opponent who broke all the rules. This is her most personal memoir yet.
In these pages, she describes what it was like to run against Donald Trump, the mistakes she made, how she has coped with a shocking and devastating loss, and how she found the strength to pick herself back up afterward. With humor and candor, she tells readers what it took to get back on her feet—the rituals, relationships, and reading that got her through, and what the experience has taught her about life. She speaks about the challenges of being a strong woman in the public eye, the criticism over her voice, age, and appearance, and the double standard confronting women in politics.
She lays out how the 2016 election was marked by an unprecedented assault on our democracy by a foreign adversary. By analyzing the evidence and connecting the dots, Hillary shows just how dangerous the forces are that shaped the outcome, and why Americans need to understand them to protect our values and our democracy in the future.
The election of 2016 was unprecedented and historic. What Happened is the story of that campaign and its aftermath—both a deeply intimate account and a cautionary tale for the nation.

Trump sides with Democrats in debt limit, funding, Harvey deal
Trump baffled congressional Republicans, and even some in his own administration, by quickly siding with Democratic leaders on a deal to fund the government and raise the federal debt ceiling for the next three months.
It was a deal that his own party, led by Speaker Paul Ryan (R-WI), opposed, including in a public statement just hours before a closed-door White House meeting between the president, fellow congressional leaders, and Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin.
For all his famed negotiating skills, Trump emerged from the meeting having handed Democrats a legislative triumph. But according to sources close to Trump, the president was more than willing to cut the deal because he has grown tired, if not resentful, of Republican leaders on Capitol Hill.
Multiple West Wing sources told The Daily Beast how the president was looking to strike a quick and easy deal—and that his speed reaching this specific arrangement was in part ensured by his resentment towards Republican leaders, who Trump views as hostile, insufficiently loyal, and impotent.

DACA doesn't seem to be a big deal but it seems to be a nice networking for pussy smashin amongst colleges. One thing that bothers me no one mentions is illegal people get an edge over people legally trying to be in the states based on emotional issues and not law.
Perhaps those dreamers can pay to play. A certain fee on top of documentation. 1-2K tax. More so than people who have been legally waiting. So as not to spit in the eye of people who actually follow rule of law stuff. This just reminds me of people who irresponsibly took out loans they couldn't afford and got bailed out. We keep letting people get away with stuff and only the honest suffer.
- Excellent idea. Let's fleece the desperate and ignorant for even more money they can't afford.Morning_star
- For the past year, they didn't seem about Americans. Watching them burn flags, make claims Trump wasn't their president. It was lots of Mexican pride till now.omg
- For the past year, they didn't seem *to care* about Americans. Burning flags, making claims Trump wasn't their president. It was lots of Mexican pride till now.omg
- Do you blame them? After all, It is the land of the free and the home of intolerant arseholes.Morning_star
- It's a matter of identity if you were brought here at age 2 illegally by parents. Are you Mexican or American?omg
- You're sure those were the same people? Or just lumping all Mexicans and Latinos together?yuekit
- No need to add more complexity, it's a simple question... Are you American?omg
- I'll tell you one thing the US is double shit at and that's learning the lessons of history. I bet most have been 'American for less than 2 generations.Morning_star
- I see these heartbreaking dreamer videos, agents of Mexico crying about how they are ashamed at the idea of being American.omg
- If an estimated 650,000 Mexicans lose DACA and get deported it will crush their economy.omg
- It won't happen. It already looks like a big zit on the WH - big enough to whine and bitch about,formed
- but not 'real' issue compared to all the other crap that must be done (debt ceiling, for instance). It's just Trump pumping up the idiots that follow him.formed

- WAIT A MINUTE - "people who irresponsibly took out loans they couldn't afford and got bailed out." - you know that only the bankers were bailed out, right?ben_

- its funny that the left supports minimum wage and immigration, which are directly opposed economically speaking. Its having cake and eating it too.deathboy
- A large part of immigration is based on maintaining a status quo of supply and demand of labor. Protectionism. Im not a big fan of such things but is a must indeathboy
- a more socialism world view. They invite ppl and set a wage cap they cant legally be justified for. It is sadly funny. The more "socialized" the more control ofdeathboy
- borders is a necessity. something to think about. Especially which side trump is on... protectionism from a state level falls into left ideology, although rightdeathboy
- is as much guilty of it being there is hardly a differencedeathboy
- but still think about the six ppl who chose to downvote an illegal edge over honest law abiding citizens. was it rational or emotional?deathboy
- my fear is ppl have no idea or ability to decide which is right to defend or why. they just follow a trend as a lil school kid would.deathboy
- my biggest fear that keeps seemingly proving itself. but i remind myself that its a pattern that has repeated itself through history. sucks for my generationdeathboy
- sigh ... suffering idiots is a part of republic and democratic system.... if a current society fails it fails it is no different than than the changing of adeathboy

Fresh evidence submitted in a major 9/11 lawsuit moving forward against the Saudi Arabian government reveals its embassy in Washington may have funded a “dry run” for the hijackings carried out by two Saudi employees, further reinforcing the claim employees and agents of the kingdom directed and aided the 9/11 hijackers and plotters.
