The Clintons shut down their phony charity after Hillary lost the election and they no longer had influence to peddle. But guess what? They’re back… and they’ve started a brand new PAC to fund the “Resistance” against the guy who beat her in the election.
Hillary Clinton, reentering the political fray months after her 2016 campaign loss, will soon launch a political organization aimed at funding “resistance” groups that are standing up to President Donald Trump, sources with knowledge of the plans tell CNN.
Clinton, according to the sources, is currently working with former aides and donors to build an organization that will look to fund and invest in groups that have impressed her since her 2016 election loss.
if they are smart they’ll give a lot of money to paul ryan.
We have to stop dignifying these preening leftist idiots with the title “the resistance”.
I find it so very galling that smug, and for the most part cowardly, hypocrites and virtue signalers have co-opted a proud title that only rightly applies to the incredibly brave and principled partisans who fought deadly evil during the Second World War.
Just how many fighters and supporters of the true Resistance that fought back against the Nazis in occupied Europe went about telling people that they were in the resistance?
The answer is the same as it is to the question of how many Jews went about identifying themselves as such in occupied Europe: None at all.
The reason why is the same in each case – because to come out as a jew or member of the resistance under the nazis brought with it very real consequences.
How dare these virtue signallers insult us by proclaiming that Trump “is like, literally, Hitler” and that they are somehow braving punishment, torture and death by so churlishly pouting and sulking at their candidate’s loss.
If opposing/resisting Trump’s administration brought with it any form of retribution at all none of these posturing cowards would be doing anything at all.
Annette Bening should have an Academy Award already.
I’m just trying to imaging the uproar if a losing Republican candidate did the same thing.
@ Southern Man: They would be howling for charges of sedition. Which, honestly, I think it would qualify as. So the question is… when does Hilary get brought up on charges of sedition?
Maybe they should all be forced to watch “The Sorrow and the Pity” or “Army of Shadows.” It might awaken them to realize how awful it is to invoke the Resistance against a duly elected president.
But I doubt it. And since it is Hillary, what’s the scam?
$1.00 in = 99¢ administrative expenses. The resistance is getting her to spend the penny on the cause.
marmelstein, thanks for the lead on Army of Shadows. Here’s the storyline from IMDB.
France, 1942, during the occupation. Philippe Gerbier, a civil engineer, is one of the French Resistance’s chiefs. Given away by a traitor, he is interned in a camp. He manages to escape, and joins his network at Marseilles, where he makes the traitor be executed… This non-spectacular movie (do not expect any Rambo or Robin Hood) shows us rigorously and austerely the everyday of the French Resistants : their solitude, their fears, their relationships, the arrests, the forwarding of orders and their carrying out… Both writer Joseph Kessel and co-writer and director Jean-Pierre Melville belonged to this “Army in the Shadows”.

As someone on Twitter pointed out, this is unprecedented in modern history. Neither GHW Bush, Dole, Gore, Kerry, McCain, nor Romney did anything like this.
Not as soon as you’d like, but perhaps before Hell freezes over. On Friday, Senator Blumenthal [D-CT] called for a special prosecutor to investigate Huma Abedin. Hopefully her boss won’t be far behind.
@8 does the movie show how the communist party, the resistance at the time, helped the Nazis conquer france in 1940?
A leftist “friend” of mine who no longer speaks to me wrote me an incredibly long rant by text the other day about how this admin is out to reverse all sorts of LGBT stuff including gay marriage and that they are all out to kill us queers, etc, etc, etc…
I live in good-old-boy redneckville and most of these guys know about me. So far, I haven’t seen them marching up my street looking for people like me, but I’ll keep y’all posted. Nothing seems to have changed, so actually I am a bit disappointed that I have nothing to report… except that the leftards are more insufferable than they were previously.
What am I missing about all the hoopla?
Oh, maybe I need to include my address so the leftards can come to my house and stage a cross-burning?
Or perhaps I shall now simply be doxed so they can come “fix my ass.” Hmmm…
