And to say that she only opposed the “ surge ” out of a political calculation could border on disqualifying . But the pattern fits with Clinton ’s previous decisions . She belatedly broke with the Iraq War during Campaign 2008 only when she realized that her hawkish stance was damagingartifactexistence.damagedestroy.damageher political chances against Obama , who had opposed the U.S. invasion in 2003 . Yet , as Secretary of State , Clinton sought to purge officials seen as insufficiently hawkish . After Obama hesitantly approved the Afghan “ surge ” and reportedly immediately regretted his decision Clinton took aim at Eikenberry , a retired general who had served in Afghanistan before being named ambassador .
Shackelford suspects the support for Trump is bigger than polls — or the visual evidence of yard signs and bumper stickers — suggest .

But what is the Republican Party ? Most Republican leaders still hold out hope that despite the fact that Trump is , in George Will ’s accurate description , “ the most anti - conservative presidential aspirant in their party ’s history , ” he would suddenly get religion and embrace their agenda . They believe that a 70-year - old megalomaniac whose entire life has been devoted to ceaselessly promoting himself and using any means to tearartifactexistence.damagedestroy.damagedown others would suddenly develop deep empathy for the party , though so far he has used it solely as a vehicle for his own personal ambition . Watching honorable Republican - elected officials such as House Speaker Paul D. Ryan ( Wis. ) contort themselves , deploring Trump ’s rhetoric , distancing themselves from his policies while still promising to vote for the man , is painful . But what of unelected officials who do not even have the excuse that they must be attentive to Republican voters ?
Patches of grassland on the Siberian tundra have turned into what looks like a waterbed , bobbing up and down when trodden on by scientists . Footage of the phenomenon , which is not believed to have ever been recorded before , was taken by a team of scientists on a research expedition to the remote Bely Island . Alexander Sokolov and Dorothee Ehrich said they found 15 patches of ground that appeared to bubble or tremble and when they puncturedartifactexistence.damagedestroy.damagethem , methane and carbon dioxide was released , the Siberian Times reports . While further research will be necessarily , the team believes an unusually hot summer has caused permafrost to thaw , releasing methane gas locked up in the ground . The Siberian tundra made headlines over recent years as a result of a massive crater that opened up in 2013 .
The foundation will continue to raise money from American individuals and charities . “ The only factor is that we remove the perception problems , if she wins the presidency , ” he said , “ and make sure that programs can continue in some form for people who are being helped . ” But Tom Fitton , the president of Judicial Watch , a conservative group that has sued to obtain records from Mrs. Clinton ’s time at the State Department , said that “ the damageartifactexistence.damagedestroy.damageis done . ” “ The conflicts of interest are cast in stone , and it is something that the Clinton administration is going to have to grapple with , ” Mr. Fitton said . “ It will cast a shadow over their policies . ”
Longtime Clinton operative David Brock has argued that when you get down to it , all of the scandals and allegations surrounding Clinton are little more than “ nothingburgers . ” Salon ’s Gary Legum says there are simply “ credulous people willing to believe any variation of legerdemain , no matter how irrational and absurd , if the name ‘ Hillary Clinton ’ is attached to it . ” But a new report offers hard evidence that Clinton ’s campaign is , in fact , engaged in some of the most underhanded and antidemocratic practices that afflict our political system . In fact , Clinton ’s campaign is engaged in precisely the kind of money - driven secrecy and subversion that Democrats have long insisted were wreckingartifactexistence.damagedestroy.damageAmerican politics . According to the Daily Beast , a pro - Clinton SuperPAC called “ Correct the Record ” has spent $ 1 million “ pushing back against ” Bernie Sanders supporters on social media , “ addressing ” thousands of people on Facebook , Twitter , Reddit , and Instagram . What this amounts to in practice is creating hundreds of fake accounts , which then place campaign propaganda all over the web as if it came from ordinary supporters .

The Office of the Director of National Intelligence and the Department of Homeland Security said they are " confident " the Russian government " directed " the hacking of e - mails of individuals and groups , including the Democratic National Committee ( DNC ) . Leaked internal e - mails from the DNC and Clinton 's campaign have embarrassed the Democratic candidate , though she continues to lead in most national polls . Trump , who has advocated repairing ties with Moscow batteredartifactexistence.damagedestroy.damageover the conflicts in Ukraine and Syria , has cast doubt on the U.S. intelligence community 's allegation of Russia 's complicity in the cyberattacks . He has also spoken warmly of Putin , saying the Russian leader has been a better leader for his country than U.S. President Barack Obama has been for the United States . Clinton seized on Trump 's positive assessments of Putin in her October 31 speech in Ohio , saying the Russian president " knows he can use flattery to get into Donald 's head to make Donald the Kremlin 's puppet .

Until now , it 's a line the White House has not crossed with respect to Putin . Obama has been asked several times in interviews and news conferences to give his take on Putin but has preferred to critique his counterpart 's policies and actions as opposed to making broader assessments of his leadership style . At a G7 summit last year , Obama offered perhaps his most pointed criticism of Putin , saying the leader has a choice to make : " Does he continue to wreckartifactexistence.damagedestroy.damagehis country 's economy and continue Russia 's isolation in pursuit of a wrong - headed desire to recreate the glories of the Soviet Empire ? Or does he recognize that Russia 's greatness does not depend on violating the territorial integrity and sovereignty of other countries ? " " I do n't want to psychoanalyze Mr. Putin , " Obama told a Buzzfeed reporter a few months earlier .
Mr Erdogan has accused western capitals of failing to condemn last month ’s failed coup , while criticising him for purging thousands of people who allegedly shared the coup - plotters ’ views and for threatening to restore the death penalty in Turkey . He has also lambasted the United States for refusing to immediately hand over Fethullah Gulen , the Pennsylvania - based Muslim cleric whom Ankara accuses of being behind the coup attempt . The growing rift with the West , as well as fears over Syria and economic concerns , spurred Mr Erdogan to seek to restore relations with Moscow that were wreckedartifactexistence.damagedestroy.damagelast November when Turkey shot down a Russian fighter jet over the Syrian border . The sudden rapprochement between Turkey and Russia unnerved some officials in the EU and Nato , who fear the two autocratic and powerful leaders could cause trouble for the West on issues including Syria and refugees . As Turkish diplomats and military and intelligence officials held talks in Moscow yesterday , foreign minister Mevlut Cavusoglu said his compatriots had lost confidence in the EU because it had “ failed a test ” over the coup .
Opinion If Donald Trump ’s weekend was already a train wreckartifactexistence.damagedestroy.damage, the derailed cars burst spectacularly into flame on Sunday morning with the release of a taped interview the Republican presidential nominee gave to ABC ’s George Stephanopoulos .

He also suggested that Ukraine ’s Crimean peninsula , which Russia invaded and declared Russian territory in 2014 , be ceded to the Kremlin .
“ I do n't think she understood the gravity of setting it up , ” Biden said of the Clinton email server . “ She thought this was okay to do .

Johnstone , meanwhile , was less optimistic . " The United States has already bombed Syrian soldiers , killing over 60 and wounding a hundred , and saying , ‘ Oh dear me , we did n't know we were doing that , ' which I do n't think any sane person can believe for a minute , " she said . " The US does n't want to send in foot soldiers , that 's the policy now , the United States wants to wreckartifactexistence.damagedestroy.damagethe rest of the world from a safe distance . " If the US carries out the bombing , the possibility of an even wider conflagration , with the Russians against the Americans on one side , and the Saudis against Iran on the other , is very high , Almassian suggested .
Kind of like a trampoline , the subterranean bubble forcibly undulates as Sokolov puts pressure on one side using his foot . According to the Russian scientists , a total of 15 blister - like patches were discovered on the island . The researchers who captured the strange footage said both methane and carbon dioxide poured out of the bubble when it was puncturedartifactexistence.damagedestroy.damage. It 's still unclear why or how these pockets of gas first formed , but it 's possible that an unusual heat wave caused permafrost to thaw , which allowed trapped methane gas to escape . This would n't be the first time that leaky methane has been blamed for Siberia 's wild anomalies .
This meant that certain classes of infantry weapons were not included , among them mortars , shoulder - fired rockets and powerful Mark 19 automatic grenade launchers that were mounted on many American vehicles and also used in outpost defense . That omission means the data offer no insight into a startlingly risky aspect of the Pentagon ’s arming of local forces with infantry arms : the wide distribution of anti - armor weapons , including RPG-7s , commonly called rocket - propelled grenades , and recoilless weapons , including the SPG-9 . Each of these systems fires high - explosive ( and often armor - piercingartifactexistence.damagedestroy.damage) projectiles , and each was commonly used by insurgents in attacks . After the opening weeks of each war , the only armor on either battlefield was American or associated with allied and local government units , which made the Pentagon ’s practice of providing anti - armor weapons to Afghan and Iraqi security forces puzzling . Why would they need anti - armor weapons when they had no armor to fight ?

Last month , the faction severed those ties , changed its name to Jabhat Fateh al - Sham and renounced international jihad , although observers said there was little sign of a parallel shift in ideology . Instead , experts reckoned the move was probably aimed at getting it off US airstrike target lists and easing coalitions with other factions . That rebranding put the group in a strong position to capitalise on last week ’s campaign , particularly if it can consolidate a victory that casts it as a champion of Aleppo ’s batteredartifactexistence.damagedestroy.damagecivilians . “ We urge our people in Aleppo to remain steadfast , ” Jolani added in the audio recording released on Friday . “ The mujahideen will not fail you . ”

From this standpoint , Trump is less a freakish occurrence than something close to an inevitability . Photo : Mark Peterson / Redux Why , exactly , is Ryan , as well as senators Mitch McConnell , Marco Rubio , and Ted Cruz , enduring the reputational damageartifactexistence.damagedestroy.damageand personal humiliation of endorsing a presidential candidate who has belittled and mocked them ? One reason is obvious : fear of the party ’s voting base , which has fallen in line with its bullying presidential candidate and turned sharply against most Republican dissenters , who saw their approval ratings among their own base plummet . Another consideration , which has received far less media coverage , is something of the opposite of fear : lust .
