“The trouble is that privacy is at once essential to, and in tension with, both freedom and security. A cabinet minister who keeps his mistress in satin sheets at the French taxpayer's expense cannot justly object when the press exposes his misuse of public funds. Our freedom to scrutinise the conduct of public figures trumps that minister's claim to privacy. The question is: where and how do we draw the line between a genuine public interest and that which is merely what interests the public?” InterestLinesTroubleSecurityFiguresObjectsTrumpEssentialsDrawsClaimsPressesGenuineMinistersTensionPrivacyFundExpensesSheetsMistressTaxpayersCabinetsMisusePublic InterestPublic FiguresSatin Author:Timothy Garton Ash
“The Clinton Foundation does nothing but donate to charities." They can't find any evidence that what Schweizer has written about the Clintons and their foundation and the fund-raising and the getting paid for speeches is wrong. They can't find anything where he's wrong. The book has not been "discredited." So [Donald] Trump delivers this massive speech. It hit home run after home run after home run.” DoeBookHomeRunningWrittenTrumpSpeechEvidencePaidFoundationClintonCharityFundMassiveHome RunDonate Author:Rush Limbaugh

“Young men and women - young men and women signed up to serve in the military to fight terrorism.

“Given [Donald] Trump`s polling deficit, his reluctance for ads until very recently in his near total lack of any ground game to speak off, it came as a surprise today that according to The Washington Post, Trump has stopped holding high-dollar fund-raising events, relying almost exclusively on online donations, which, of course, tend to be much smaller.” TodayCoursesGamesSpeakGivenEventsTrumpDollarsSurprisePostsOnlineFundAdsDeficitDonationReluctancePolling Author:Chris Hayes
“The fact remains that we're running a presidential campaign.
