SHORT TAKES ON THE DRIFTING WRECKAGE – AT 11:58 P.M. ET: 

WINTER READING – From WaPo:  The company that managed Hillary Rodham Clinton’s private e-mail server said it has “no knowledge of the server being wiped,” the strongest indication to date that tens of thousands of e-mails that Clinton has said were deleted could be recovered.  Clinton and her advisers have said for months that she deleted her personal correspondence from her time as secretary of state, creating the impression that 31,000 e-mails were gone forever.  This just won't go away.  It could consume Hillary in the same way that Watergate consumed Richard Nixon.  To get the nomination Hillary has to get the e-mail investigation off her back, and be vindicated.  The clock may not allow that. 

THIS IS PURE GARBAGE – From USA Today:   Poorer nations suffering from extreme weather disasters, so much so that their citizens are seeking refuge in safer terrains outside their borders, want rich nations like the United States to pay for reparations and to relocate populations.  Preparatory talks ahead of the United Nations Conference on Climate Change to be held in Paris in December has representatives from developing nations asking for more than an already agreed upon $100 billion per year for climate change mitigation measures. They want additional compensation for weather-related disasters as well as a "displacement coordination facility" for refugees. And they want all this to be legally binding as part of the larger anticipated Paris accord.  The U.S. and wealthier nations in the European Union are balking.  This is what the climate-change racket is really about.  Money.  And if the "poor nations" get their money?  Nothing will change, but the bank accounts of their leaders will grow.  Some day I'd like to see journalists ask the leaders of "poor nations" why their countries are poor.  You'll hear the greatest fiction since Shakespeare.

TALK ABOUT BEING DELUSIONAL – From Breitbart:  David Brock, top attack dog at progressive site Media Matters, is unleashing an attack on a surprising target.  In a forthcoming book titled, “Killing the Messenger: The Right-Wing Plot to Derail Hillary Clinton and Hijack Your Government,” Brock alleges the NY Times is out to get Hillary Clinton....according to Brock, the NY Times has become a “megaphone for conservative propaganda.”   Yup, that's what he said.  The Times is conservative.  And Queen Elizabeth is really Bruce Jenner.  Brock was, at one time, a right-wing attack dog.  Now he's barking for the left.  Why is he even taken seriously?
