It is NOT A FUCKING COINCIDENCE that certain members the House @GOP's Judiciary Committee are attending a closed door meetings about @HillaryClinton's emails.
Why?
Because, like us, they have come to the same conclusions as the rest of us have.
#SheWon & they're panicking.

They are engaging the same strategy that they always do when it comes to @HillaryClinton.
Accuse.
Rage.
Obfuscate.
Exaggerate.
Investigate.
It's nauseating how aggressively predictable it all is, and how calculating, not to mention cynical and evil too.

Of course, the idea of men like @DevinNunes sitting in judgement of @HillaryClinton in any capacity now seems even more utterly ridiculous than it did before.
No amount of Clinton focus or deflection will possibly erase the sins and hypocrisy of the @GOP.

I have considered it my mission, while here, to defend @HillaryClinton against the insidious and unfair attacks against her and the campaign she ran for President in 2016.
Today that mission shifted.
It is now my mission to insist on public acknowledgement that #SheWon.

Those who know me well, know that this has always been my belief, but today that belief was verified in too many ways to ignore.
@HillaryClinton is the legitimate President of the United States.
Whether she ever assumes the office or not, history must tell the right story.

It must say loud and clear that a woman won, and that Americans chose her.
She was not a weak candidate who was beaten by worst candidate in history.
Instead she was so formidable a candidate that it took the epic effort of a global conspiracy to keep her from office.

What I know for sure: @HillaryClinton would have done as President what she has done in every job she's held and every office to which she's been elected or appointed, her best.
She would've worked harder, known everything, tried to be everywhere, and took nothing for granted.
She would've worked harder, known everything, tried to be everywhere, and took nothing for granted.
She would have tried to work with political adversaries to find common cause, went through every shade of yellow pantsuit mace and taken more insta-naps than any other President in history.
She would've been kind, aware of her place in history, & arrogance free.

@HillaryClinton
She would strengthened our alliances and made Putin feel the way she always has, which is to say small, weak, and unequal.
She would have been patient with Bernie, ignored the Donald and she would have been an even bigger inspiration to little girls everywhere.

Conservatives can't let it go. They can't accept that they are wrong, and that they've always been wrong about @HillaryClinton.
Despite having been investigated several times by the most partisan and relentless individuals imaginable.
Nothing.

And the people investigating her have wanted, often (it seemed) needed, to find SOMETHING.
Anything.
Take one part speculation and two parts innuendo and top it off with a pile of manufactured anger and moral shock and you have the basic recipe for every Hillary "scandal."

If you think that Ken Starr, Trey Gowdy, and probably even James Comey wouldn't have given their life's blood to find that thing to bring her down then you are being wilfully ignorant to the obvious reality.

I know I talk a lot about @HillaryClinton.
I know.
But there's a reason.
Too few political figures in our country seem to understand the processes underway right now better than she does, and if they do, they are not saying so out loud.
She matters, because she is right.

She matters because she has almost always been right about everything.
She matters because she is willing to say what no one wants to hear, despite being criticized relentlessly for doing so.
She matters because she did not lose the 2016 elections either fairly, or in fact.

Almost everyday someone, somewhere, is wringing their hands about something the former Democratic nominee for President has done or said.
The amount of ink spilt concern trolling Hillary Clinton's every move since 9 November 2016 is nauseating on a real physical level.

The game being played, of course, presently, is one of futures. It began almost as soon as the immiediate dust settled in 2016. The loss was her's & her's alone they lectured, and if she keeps recklessly blaming Russia then Democrats will lose & continue to lose.

There is a reason that so many Americans felt that something was wrong on #BlackTuesday.
A reason for that sense that we had not, or at least could not have, made that decision.
Because,
What happened was UnAmerican.
What happened was impossible.
What happened was wrong.

There was nothing in any of the numbers that indicated it would or could happen.
Nothing.
In those last days Clinton's crowds were increasingly larger and more energetic.
The Obama's stood and asked a receptive, grateful America to place their faith in her.

Black folks stood up to the bullying efforts of their own State and Local governments and refused to be turned away. They endured hours when it took whites in neighboring districts minutes.
They stayed in line.
Black women sang,
"And I shall not be moved..."

My mother was not an educated woman, but she was smart enough to know her own limits and she trusted science and medicine and respected higher learning.
She aldo had incredible instincts which she passed down to me.
My mom never saw Trump for anything other than what he was. 1/

It never occurred to her that he could win an election against a women like @HillaryClinton fairly.
In fact, she was convinced he could not. Not in a just world.
She was worried about it as early as Dec 2015.
"If Trump wins the nomination he'll draw blood to beat her."

I held back telling her about Russia as long as I was able.The media were not talking about it (at all) so I thought I had time. It was one of her home nurses who broke the news. He was an old school Democrat & he & his wife were devoted to Clinton.

1/ The constant relitigation of a primary that Bernie Sanders never should have been allowed to run in is not endearing me the man.
2/ It's actually forcing me to question my ability to support a party that refuses to learn from it's own mistakes.
It's incomprehensible.
