Okay FBI, But What About Hillary's Spam Emails?
Daily Signal

There’s been a hubbub surrounding FBI Director James Comey’s recommendation not to charge Hillary Clinton for her email shenanigans. Less of a hubbub actually and more of a cacophonous explosion of discontent striking waves across all reaches of the internet. The people are virtually rioting. In the virtual streets. The uproar is understandable, but I fear it has overshadowed the more important issue: sure, Hillary may have dealt less than admirably with her classified emails, but what about her spam?

We’ve all been so blinded by the “top secret” and “highly classified” that nobody is asking the big questions: has Hillary Clinton ever had the opportunity to claim a free iPad 2? How many trips to Barbados has she stumbled upon by blind luck? What exactly is the nature of her relationship with the Nigerian royal family?

Don’t get me wrong, I’m just as concerned about the security of military operations and international decisions as the next guy, but I’m understandably more worried about whether or not Hillary has renewed her subscription, or whether she would like to. You know the one

Sure, I get it, it’s hip to yell about government corruption and distrust, but am I seriously the only one who wants to know if Secretary Clinton is interested in penile enlargement pills? Or if she’s considered methods to slim down her belly fat in three short steps? My fear is that the media buzz has halted the American public’s ability to focus on the issues that really matter here.

At the end of the day, who cares about Clinton’s handling of national security issues when she could have found single Asian women within 11 miles? There’s a natural prioritizing that has been entirely neglected in this instance, which I see as just one more way the establishment is seeking to suppress public awareness. It is our right as U.S. citizens to stand up and demand our right to know which webcam sites have been soliciting the former Secretary of State.

And for all those of you who believed Senator Bernie Sanders was our white knight in the fight against corporate government oppression, I’m afraid I have sad news. “Sick and tired of hearing about your damn emails,” eh? Sounds an awful lot like a pitiful ploy at distraction from Hillary’s lucky winner status. That’s right, I’m afraid our friend from Vermont was nothing more than another plant to hide Hillary’s attempts to erase her debts completely with no future payments.

If it’s a political revolution you want, speak out for what really matters. Demand to see the spam. Don’t settle for a farce of irresponsibility and national endangerment. After all, no reasonable prosecutor would be concerned by any of that, so why should we? Instead, let’s tackle the tough matters at hand. I mean, if we don’t know Hillary Clinton’s one weird trick to gain three inches, we may as well toss our whole political process in the trash.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
