Clinton Campaign Hires Everytown State Director as Community Organizer
by AWR Hawkins 29 Apr 2015
On April 23, Hillary Clinton’s campaign reportedly hired Scott Hogan, state director of Everytown for Gun Safety, to organize for her campaign in Minnesota.

According to the MinnPost, “Hogan’s job in Minnesota [will be to] work with Clinton supporters to organize local meetings, volunteer trainings and other grassroots events.”

The Star Tribune reports that the organizing effort, headquartered in Brooklyn, will also include arranging “house parties” in communities around the state. This is part of Clinton’s top-down 50-state “grassroots organizing campaign.”

Prior to being hired by the Clinton campaign, Hogan “has been working as Minnesota’s state director and campaign manager for Everytown for Gun Safety.”

University Paid Bill While Hillary Steered State Dept. Money to Its Nonprofit Affiliate



University Paid Bill While Hillary Steered State Dept. Money to Its Nonprofit Affiliate
by Breitbart News29 Apr 2015
From Geoff Earle writing at the New York Post:

Bill Clinton collected hefty speaking fees as the “honorary chairman” of a for-profit university, but suddenly ended his relationship last week after Hillary Rodham Clinton attacked for-profit colleges and the money flow to Bill was threatened.

The new book “Clinton Cash” says government grants to the school’s nonprofit affiliate soared when Hillary became secretary of state.

As Bubba played pitchman for Baltimore-based Laureat University, the State Department steered a $1.9 million grant to the nonprofit, the book claims.

“Isn’t it troubling that while Bill Clinton was being paid by a private corporation, the corporation was also benefiting from State Department actions . . . Isn’t it troubling that this seeming conflict of interest was not disclosed?” writes author Peter Schweizer.

Ex-Mayor Martin O'Malley Heckled During Baltimore Riot Tour

Ex-Mayor Martin O'Malley Heckled During Baltimore Riot Tour
Tuesday, 28 Apr 2015 10:33 PM
By Cathy Burke
Former Baltimore mayor and Maryland governor Martin O’Malley, who cut his Europe trip short to visit the riot-torn city, was promptly heckled by a man who called the turmoil "all his fault."

The Democrat, who's expected to launch a long-shot presidential primary campaign against former secretary of state Hillary Clinton, was near a burned-out and looted CVS pharmacy when two men on motorcycles swore at O'Malley for his tough-on-crime policies from 1999 to 2007, the Washington Post reports.

Shaking hands and posing for selfies while reporters and residents asked him about his policing strategy, one of the hecklers screamed: "F— that, this is his fault!"

"Do you know who he is? Why would you shake his hand?" the man asked people following O'Malley.

The Post reports the heckler identified himself as Wayne Grady, 47, a housing developer who's a lifelong Baltimore resident.

"He had his chance to fix this," Grady said of O'Malley, the Post reports. "He’s part of the frustrations that are built up in these black young men."

O'Malley told the Post he tried to does his best "to strike the right balance...."

As for the heckling, O'Malley remarked only "Most people have been very nice to me. You’ve gotta to be present in the middle of the pain, man."

The Post reports O'Malley may have to face some political fallout from the Baltimore turmoil, which erupted after the funeral of Freddie Gray, who died April 19 of injuries he mysteriously sustained while in police custody.

While on the stump, O'Malley touts Baltimore's rise from the ashes, including a drop in violent crime that's been attributed to his zero-tolerance approach that led to an increase in arrests, the Post reports.

"It sure isn’t going to help him," Gene Raynor, a critic who was friends with the late Democratic mayor and Maryland governor William Donald Schaefer, told the Post. "I think it does reflect on him."

Added Democratic strategist Joe Trippi: "You’re up against the images people are seeing today, even if you did a great job."

"It’s like talking about climate change when there’s the worst snowstorm in your city’s history," he told the Post. "It doesn’t mean you can’t win your case, but it’s a tougher case to win."
