Just one day after the global premiere of Clinton Cash, Hans Westberg, the embattled CEO and president of telecoms company Ericsson, stepped down as the head of the Swedish wireless equipment maker.

The company had received a letter in late 2010 from the Securities and Exchange Commission, warning it about the sells to oppressive governments. U.S. diplomatic cables noted that State Department officials had “regularly and increasingly” raised Ericsson’s transgressions with the Swedish foreign minister.

In June 2011, the State Department began drafting a list of specific goods and services that should be covered under expanded sanctions that were to be imposed on Iran and other state sponsors of terrorism.

Meanwhile, Ericsson decided to pay Bill Clinton more money than he had ever been paid for a single speech: $750,000 . In the previous decade, Ericsson had never sponsored a speaking engagement for either Hillary or Bill Clinton.

During his November 12, 2011 speech at a telecom conference in Hong Kong, Bill Clinton spoke in general terms about the positive role telecom plays in our lives. One week later , on November 19, the State Department unveiled its new sanctions list for Iran. Telecom was not on the list.

I am watching the DNC with my 19 year old son and he is laughing at this stupidity...they are bombing

When the WaPo turns on Hillary, you KNOW the ship is going down.

Don't be fooled by one little article buried deep in the Politics section (I know you really aren't)

Did you see in the leaked emails that the WaPo held a joint fundraiser with the DNC? And even when their lawyers told them they couldn't do it, they did it anyway and just didn't list it anywhere officially.

Note you haven't seen that get much coverage on the networks. Of course, that's probably because the emails also showed direct coordination with the networks and reporters on stories, interviews and narratives that the DNC wanted pushed out to the public.

The WaPo and networks are 100% behind Hillary to the bitter end. They have spent almost 2 decades building this narrative, they will not let it go.

^^^Yes. Their ass is out, and they are trying desperately now to cover it. Chuck Todd today said that the Democrat Convention was "a mess," and a worse mess than the Republican. That would be the Chuck Todd who submitted articles to the Democrats for approval before publishing. Yeah, see? Really, he's not in the tank for Hillary.... Bwahahaha.

Still, it's nice to see them scrambling.

All I know is Trump better have a damn good protection detail.

Bernie has turned on himself.

I wonder if he feels like shit about himself (as he should), or if he is just another politician. For a long time I truly believed, HE believed the bullshit he was peddling

He slept with the enemy. When she is done with him, he'll be dismissed and his previously loyal followers, who saw through his façade last night will abandon him. He'll be alone to think about how used he was.

He's the very real definition of a sellout. He's nothing now but a whore to the DNC. He oughta hate himself if he has any sense left.

Being a lifelong socialist/democrat/waste of life, he has no sense of pride or personal worth. He sells out to the high dollar. I'm sure Clinton has promised to take care of him if she wins and he gladly accepted.

Yeah, She'll make him Secretary of Nothing. Another new position with no duties but the pay is great.

The concept of being taken care of by a Clinton is frightening.

Interesting article on Trump...I hope you read it, would be interested in your feedback.

After reading this article I think that it's a more shameful act by Democrats since they bill themselves as the party looking out for the poor and downtrodden. Hell, West Virginia used to be a solidly-blue state up until 2000 or so, but somewhere along the line the Democrats seemingly forgot about them.

The paragraph below (from the article) does an excellent job of summing up my relationship with Donald Trump. I feel like getting business cards made with the these words on it, and then just handing them out when people ask me my opinion on him.

"Well, I think the speech itself was a perfect microcosm of why I love and am terrified of Donald Trump. On the one hand, he criticized the elites and actually acknowledge the hurt of so many working class voters. After so many years of Republican politicians refusing to even talk about factory closures, Trump’s message is an oasis in the desert. But of course he spent way too much time appealing to people’s fears, and he offered zero substance for how to improve their lives. It was Trump at his best and worst."

Trumps "substance" is based on creating jobs , which intern creates competition in the workplace which leads to higher wages . Trump purposes to deregulate environmental and bureaucratic regulations which strangle American Industry, lower tax rates, and renegotiate trade deals to ensure that free trade is not manipulated in favor of our trading partners. What type of "substance" are you expecting him to provide?

^ "in turn" and "proposes" (I bet that was spell check getting confused, happens to me a lot)

@Bama

My grandmother said it best when she told me many years ago, "believe nothing that you hear, and only half of what you see." Almost precisely why I don't buy into reading articles, most always they have some agenda/bias behind them, subconsciously, conscious, or otherwise.

I know, "the devil is in the details"! If he were to present an in depth point by point plan, it would be greatly exaggerated so that it could be negotiated through congress with enough substance remaining to succeed.
