Hillary Clinton Accuses Jill Stein of Being a Russian Asset

Jill Stein

During an appearance on the David Plouffe’s Campaign HQ podcast, former Secretary of State and 2016 Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton, accused 2012 and 2016 Green Party presidential nominee Jill Stein of being a Russian asset.  Clinton also accused the Russians of “grooming” a current Democratic presidential candidate, presumably Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard, to be a 2020 third party candidate and spoil the election in favor of President Donald Trump.

Recently I conducted an interview for Wikinews with 2020 Libertarian Party presidential candidate Adam Kokesh.

See an excerpt below:

Concerning Lincoln Chafee and the Metric System

I wonder if potential 2020 Libertarian presidential candidate Lincoln Chafee still wants to switch to the metric system.

Personally, I prefer the customary system because I am more familiar with it. I presume most Americans feel the same way. Chafee would probably be best served to de-emphasize this issue since it was more a point of ridicule than benefit to his 2016 campaign.

Chafee, perhaps as a result of his father and time in the Senate, will always be more closely associated with the Republicans than any other party. He’s a northeastern liberal Republican in the mold of Bill Weld. Luckily for him, he’s more likable than Weld.

In Honor of Prohibition Party Vice Presidential Nominee Phil Collins

According to the IPR article “Prohibition National Committee Meets, Gammon and Collins Selected as Presidential Ticket,” the Prohibition Party nominated a new 2020 presidential ticket of C.L. Gammon and Phil Collins after the previous nominee and former 2016 vice presidential nominee Bill Bayes withdrew from the race.

Updates on Saturn and the Government “Shutdowns”

I rarely look at IPR anymore.  I sometimes read Chuck Baldwin’s weekly column on Chuck Baldwin Live but I don’t check in as often.  I’ve been kind of “shutdown” myself.

As for the partial government “shutdown,” frankly, I feel bad for the 800,000 who aren’t getting paid (even though they will get back pay), but this is proving we can exist without as much government.

The markets have really reacted positively to it.
