It’s Confirmed! Russia Didn’t Hack John Podesta's Email. STOP LYING!!!!
New York Mag

I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but since WikiLeaks has exposed Hillary Clinton and the DNC for being the corrupt, corporatist, neoliberal, ring-winged, warmongering, hacks that they are, they’ve done nothing but point fingers at Russia. When asked about the content of the leaked emails, Hillary Clinton and the DNC unskillfully pivots and says the DNC emails were hacked unlawfully. During the Third Presidential Debate, moderator Chris Wallace asked about the apparent Pay to Play corruption exposed by WikiLeaks. Here’s how Hillary responded:

“You are very clearly quoting from WikiLeaks and what’s really important about WikiLeaks is that the Russian government has engaged in espionage against Americans. They have hacked American websites, American accounts of private people, of institutions, then they have given that information to WikiLeaks for the purpose of putting it on the Internet. This has come from the highest levels of the Russian government, clearly from [Vladimir] Putin himself, in an effort – as 17 of our intelligence agencies have confirmed – to influence our election. So I actually think the most important question of this evening, Chris, is finally will Donald Trump admit that the Russians are doing this and that he rejects Russian espionage?”

You should notice two things about that response. First, she never responded to the context of the email. She has only said that Russia has committed espionage. The next thing that you should notice is that she never said the content of the email was invalid. The question was about the content of the email and she never answered it.

Even if she was right that Russia hacked the DNC’s emails, it does not answer the question of the content of the email or its validity. Who hacked the emails and what’s in the emails are two separate questions. One does not answer the other.

Unfortunately for Hillary and the DNC, they can no longer use that lie. Russia did not hack John Podesta’s emails. The DNC lied to us the entire time. According to Salon, John Podesta was the victim of a Phishing Scam. Phishing scams are an attempt by scammers to trick you into giving out personal information such as your bank account numbers, passwords, credit card information etc. Scammers were able to get Podesta’s password through this Phishing scam.

So you may be wondering, “how did scammers get the Podesta’s password?” According to a leading cyber security firm, Podesta just gave it to them. He fell for a simple phishing scam frequently used in spam mail. I’m not going to fault Podesta for this. Millions of people fall for this every year and literally, anyone can fall for it, especially older people who may not be very computer savvy. To me, this is a non-issue and I won’t criticize him for this. However, I have a ton of criticism for him, the DNC, and the hack democratic party loyalist, the majority of whom are gen-Xers and baby boomers.

I’ve stated many times I’m not voting for Hillary Clinton because she’s an atrocious candidate and I get called all types of names mostly for older people because of this. I get called sexist, ignorant, irrational, an idiot and all names in the book. It’s very rare that I’m called any of these names by younger people. Probably about 95 percent of people who say these things are older people. That number may even be conservative because I have been called these things by well over 100 older people. I can think of only one millennial who has called me any of this.

It has now been proven that Russia didn't hack John Podesta's email. The DNC was lying the entire time. Every non-stupid person knew they were lying. In other words, you didn’t have to be smart to know Hillary Clinton and the DNC was lying. You just had to be non-stupid. So if you fell for the bullshit, then you’re stupid. They're no ifs, and's or buts about it. You’re stupid.

Hillary and the DNC are willing to start a war to make sure that her corruption doesn't get exposed. Am I supposed to vote for that? That's who you're voting for? I'm the irrational one for not voting for someone who is willing to potentially cause a Third War World to prevent her corruption from being exposed? How am I irrational? How dare you call yourself rational? You voting for more war, more fracking, normalizing corruption, a more powerful Wall Street, bigger more powerful banks than before the recession, media propaganda, continuing the status quo, the rich getting exponentially richer while the poor gets much poorer, accelerated climate change, the bombing of brown people overseas and wars over oil, is irrational.

You care more about having a woman president than having values and standards. The democrats are not much different than the republicans at this point but you keep telling me to vote for constipation (democrats) because diarrhea (republicans) are worse. Why are you choosing between constipation and diarrhea? How is that rational? In what world is that rational?

You’re voting for someone who’s willing to risk our lives to hide her corruption? Are you kidding me? We’re supposed to trust your judgment when you defend corruption in our government as long as the democrats do it? You call yourself a liberal? Are you kidding me? You’re not a liberal my friend. You’re a propagandist. A stupid one at that. At least the idiots at CNN, Fox, MSNBC and all the dumbass propaganda companies are making a living being propagandists. You’re doing it for free while those same propagandists are f*cking you and you are destroying your credibility in the process. How stupid can you be? How is voting for someone who will send your kids to die in war over a lie rational?

When the democrats said 17 government agencies confirmed they were hacked by Russia, did you believe that shit even though the democrats provided exactly ZERO evidence of that? Did you believe the same government that told us that there was Weapons of Mass Destruction in Iraq? Somehow, then Senator of New York, Hillary Clinton had no clue the war in Iraq was a war over oil and thought Iraq attacked us on 9/11 but millions of people who protested the Iraq War knew it was a war over oil? I guess those people are more qualified than Hillary Clinton?

You think I’m stupid enough to believe that millions of people knew the Iraq War was BS and Hillary didn’t? How big of an idiot can you be? You are worse than the republicans. Every normal human being knows republicans are horrible and are completely against anything factual. In hating the republican party, you idiot, hack, democratic loyalist have become the republicans. You defend corruption, you’re pro-war, you’re are fine with propaganda for your party just like the republicans are. Don’t pretend you’re much better than republicans. You’re not. You’re a 1980s republican. Don’t call yourself a democrat. If you democratic apologists are democrats, then Franklin D Roosevelt wasn’t a democrat. If you are a liberal, then Martin Luther King wasn’t a liberal. You voted against the candidate (Bernie Sanders) who is most like FDR was in favor of a candidate (Hillary Clinton) that's not too far from what Ronald Regan was. You’re doing a disservice to America and making it a much worse place. You don’t care about right or wrong. You only care about team blue. You play for a team. Had Sarah Palin been a democrat, she would have been the democratic nominee because you are just that stupid. There’s actually a facebook group called “Vote Blue No Matter Who”. How are they not sheep?

You didn’t vote for Hillary Clinton over Bernie Sanders because her policies are better. That’s damn sure not the case. Of the top 150 economists in the world, more than three times the number of economist backed Bernie Sanders economic plan over Hillary’s and Trump’s plan combine. Some of those economists include Nobel Prize-winning economist Joseph Stiglitz and former Secretary of Labor for the Clinton Administration Robert Reich. Reich knew Clinton since she was 19 and still said Sanders is more qualified to be president than Hillary. These economists said that Hillary’s plan can still lead to a Wall Street Crash because she’s opposed to Glass-Stegall. Environmentalists said neither Hillary or Trump is doing enough to combat the biggest issue facing the world: Climate Change.

Now you clowns now want to cite these same economists and environmentalist that said Bernie’s plan was best to say Trump is horrible and convince us to vote for Hillary? That make no sense. How stupid is that? These economists and environmentalists didn’t matter to you during the primaries. All of a sudden, what they say is important? So during the primaries when it actually mattered, you knew more than the economist and environmentalist but now that we’re in the general election they’re experts again? What is the matter with you? Do you realize how big of a hypocrite you are? I want to make this clear, this article is not to criticize people who are voting for Hillary out of fear for Trump. This is for everyone voting for Hillary with their heads up their asses pretending they know more than experts until they don’t want to pretend they know more than experts.

Everyone who defends Hillary to no end and pretend every single thing she does wrong (which is a whole lot) is just right-winged propaganda, don’t pretend you care about the future the of this country, the world, your children, or your grandchild. You don’t care that there will be wars over water in the near future. You don’t care that Hillary Clinton is willing to send us to war to hide her corruption because you’re with her. That makes you “rational”. Well, I’ve decided not to be whatever your shitty definition of rational is. Jill Stein has my vote. We need to get her 5 percent of the vote so the Green Party can get national funding in the future so they can have the funds to run down ballot candidates in congressional races and move the democratic party back left.

Jill Stein has my vote. I don’t care how irrational you want to call me. I’d rather vote for someone who has no choice of winning who is principled and stands for the majority of what I believe in than throw away my vote on someone who doesn’t give a shit about me. I'd rather not see my friends get killed in war over a lie Hillary made up. I’d rather not accelerate climate change. I’d rather not vote for a neoliberal who is diametrically opposed to the middle class.

We need a way to vote against Wall Street, against corporate welfare, against fracking, against the TPP, against the Keystone Excel pipeline, against the Dakota Access Pipeline, someone who is for Black Lives Matters, someone who won’t bomb Muslims and brown people overseas, someone who is not bought and paid for by corporations, someone who will not kill innocent Americans to hide her corruption. Jill Stein represents that. A president who wants to serve you represents irrationality. Well, you can continue being "rational" and vote for Hillary because “I’m with her”.

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.

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

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.
