Okay FBI, But What About Hillary's Spam Emails?
Daily Signal

There’s been a hubbub surrounding FBI Director James Comey’s recommendation not to charge Hillary Clinton for her email shenanigans. Less of a hubbub actually and more of a cacophonous explosion of discontent striking waves across all reaches of the internet. The people are virtually rioting. In the virtual streets. The uproar is understandable, but I fear it has overshadowed the more important issue: sure, Hillary may have dealt less than admirably with her classified emails, but what about her spam?

We’ve all been so blinded by the “top secret” and “highly classified” that nobody is asking the big questions: has Hillary Clinton ever had the opportunity to claim a free iPad 2? How many trips to Barbados has she stumbled upon by blind luck? What exactly is the nature of her relationship with the Nigerian royal family?

Don’t get me wrong, I’m just as concerned about the security of military operations and international decisions as the next guy, but I’m understandably more worried about whether or not Hillary has renewed her subscription, or whether she would like to. You know the one

Sure, I get it, it’s hip to yell about government corruption and distrust, but am I seriously the only one who wants to know if Secretary Clinton is interested in penile enlargement pills? Or if she’s considered methods to slim down her belly fat in three short steps? My fear is that the media buzz has halted the American public’s ability to focus on the issues that really matter here.

At the end of the day, who cares about Clinton’s handling of national security issues when she could have found single Asian women within 11 miles? There’s a natural prioritizing that has been entirely neglected in this instance, which I see as just one more way the establishment is seeking to suppress public awareness. It is our right as U.S. citizens to stand up and demand our right to know which webcam sites have been soliciting the former Secretary of State.

And for all those of you who believed Senator Bernie Sanders was our white knight in the fight against corporate government oppression, I’m afraid I have sad news. “Sick and tired of hearing about your damn emails,” eh? Sounds an awful lot like a pitiful ploy at distraction from Hillary’s lucky winner status. That’s right, I’m afraid our friend from Vermont was nothing more than another plant to hide Hillary’s attempts to erase her debts completely with no future payments.

If it’s a political revolution you want, speak out for what really matters. Demand to see the spam. Don’t settle for a farce of irresponsibility and national endangerment. After all, no reasonable prosecutor would be concerned by any of that, so why should we? Instead, let’s tackle the tough matters at hand. I mean, if we don’t know Hillary Clinton’s one weird trick to gain three inches, we may as well toss our whole political process in the trash.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
