Hillary Clinton is “too big to jail,” a presidential candidate not named Trump is alleging. Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein, who appeared Wednesday night with running mate, Ajuma Baraka, at a CNN Green Party town hall, blasted Clinton’s handling of classified information.
“Part of the problem, you know, with Hillary’s abuse of the rules,
she was sort of too big — you know, too big to jail on the rules,” Stein
said.
“And she violated those rules with a sense of impunity, and she
violated them for a purpose which she stated herself, that she wanted
her private information private.”
Stein alleged that Clinton had deleted “half of her e-mails” because
they were related to her “private personal foundation,” saying the
arrangement “really raises questions.” Jill Stein
“I do have serious questions about Hillary’s judgment, her
safeguarding of national security information, and above all, her
trustworthiness in the job where she will have her finger on the button,
given how she handled major decisions, both around the war in Iraq, but
then especially around the war in Libya, where she led the charge,”
Stein added.
The Green Party candidate is trying to latch onto the movement
started by Bernie Sanders in his Democratic primary challenge of
Clinton.
Stein credited Sanders “for having changed the political landscape
forever” and said, “the political system will never be the same.”
“Bernie himself said it’s a movement, it’s not a man. And it’s clear,
Hillary does not represent what you were working for,” Stein said.
When buying a smartphone or tablet, the battery life is arguably one of the most important things people consider. Luckily consumer group Which? has taken the guess work out of it by compiling a guide of smartphones, tablets, laptops, Bluetooth speakers and wireless headphones that offer the best and worst battery life. It turns out some smartphones will die after just 180 minutes of browsing the web – not what you want from a modern phone. The HTC 10 took top place for the longest battery life of a smartphone. The $575 phone took a whopping 1,859 minutes of continuous talk time to run out of battery – that’s just one minute short of 31 hours. Coming in as the worst buy for battery life was the EE Rook, which will run out of juice within three hours of browsing the web. Looking for a tablet? Then the Samsung Galaxy Tab A 9.7 is going to give you the best value for money when it comes to battery life. On average, the $250 tablet lasted almost 16 hours before i...
Want to live forever? Or simply travel to a far future time? The chances of doing so just got a step closer, with a breakthrough in cryogenic freezing. The most obvious use is space travel. Space is big. And getting anywhere takes lots of time, not to mention resources. So sending crews into a deep sleep makes sense. If it can be made to work. And safely. The idea is to preserve bodies and brains in a state of suspended animation. Science has managed to do this for individual cells. Reviving a living organism has proven to be a much more challenging matter. Until now. It’s significant because 60 years worth of similar attempts have failed. The core of the issue is ice crystals. Frozen water expands. As a result, ice will burst a cell from the inside out. Replacing part of a body’s fluids with antifreeze has long been thought of as a possible solution. Antifreeze filled zebrafish embryos — chosen because they are largely translucent and easy to study — have...
The United States and Russia announced early Saturday a breakthrough agreement on Syria that foresees a nationwide cease-fire starting early next week, followed by an unlikely new military partnership between the rival governments targeting the Islamic State and al-Qaida. US Secretary of State John Kerry (left) and Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov in Geneva U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry said the plan could reduce violence in Syria and lead to a long-sought political transition, ending more than five years of bloodshed. He called the deal a potential “turning point” in a conflict that has killed as many as 500,000 people, if complied with by Syria’s Russian-backed government and U.S.-supported rebel groups. The cease-fire begins at sundown Monday, Kerry said, coinciding with the Muslim Eid al-Adha holiday. Kerry’s negotiating partner, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, confirmed the agreement and said it could help expand the counterterrorism f...
