This story about Slade Sohmer should be one of those irony-alert posts of which I’m so fond. Sohmer, who has been praised by Clinton Fixer John Podesta and who reportedly helped “debunk” pizza gate (as debunker and denier), just got busted with a boatload of kiddie porn.

The Left-Wing Website Think Progress.org Died Today
Think Progress was created by Clinton Insider John Podesta. It sold itself as an independent outlet but primarily existed to protect the Clinton’s and ruling class Democrats and their policies. But no more. It shuts down today.
Wikileaks Revisited: How NH’s Gary Hirshberg Worked to Torpedo Bernie’s Campaign
People don’t talk about the DNC leak and John Podesta Emails enough. Not in the proper context. Yes, we get that whole smoke-screen Russian hacking narrative but that’s falling apart before our eyes. What is not falling apart because it is real and tangible are the words of Clinton Campaign and Democrat Party operatives and donors busted for a wide range of schemes, scams, and collusion.
This includes emailing Podesta to get Clinton people and White House staffers to pressure Democrat Senators into stopping a piece of legislation that could give Bernie Sander’s several weeks of free earned media and more donations.
Hodes + BP + Lobbyist + Rhetoric
No one doubts that BP has a responsibility to clean up after themselves but Paul Hodes has taken the opportunity to play word games and politics. Yesterday he announced that because of BP’s complicity in the release of the Lockerbie Bomber they are no longer entitled to the tax cuts the government gives them out of the goodness of its frozen black little heart. Hodes calls them ‘Tax subsidies. ‘
That is lib-speak for money you legally earned that the government lets you keep. Imagine a mugger leaving you a twenty for cab fare after he takes everything esle including your car keys. That twenty is a subsidy provided by the mugger to you. Hodes is the mugger and he has decided that BP is not entitled to the money it legally earns–and likely needs to stay solvent to help pay for that mess down in the gulf.
Chicago On The Merrimack
The democrat party line on BP is to close ranks and paint Republicans as protecting big oil. This is necessary to distract America from Obama’s incompetence and the democrat’s cozy relationship with the British energy company. Both Carol Shea-Porter and Paul Hodes got the memo—they are on board—using tragedy for personal and political profit as each has sent out fundraising propaganda asking supporters to help them fend of the GOP and its defense of big oil. These people are unbelievable.
In a recent Hodes fundraising email staffer Valerie Martin claims that…
"Republicans… are standing up for Big Oil, Big Insurance, and Big Banks.
It’s just another example of a Republican defending the special interests, not your interests.…
Other Republicans are even inexplicably criticizing President Obama’s efforts to make sure BP has money set aside to pay for the damages they caused.””
So let me see if I’ve go this right. Paul Hodes (lawyer) sanctions the chief executive’s right to pry billions away from a private company without due process of law, when it is politically or ideologically convenient. You can run on that and democrats will vote for you?
