Hillary Clinton’s former advisers are duking it out over whether America will get to see Hillary 2.0.

Mark Penn, a pollster and senior adviser to Bill and Hillary Clinton from 1995 to 2008, wrote this week in The Wall Street Journal that, “Hillary will run again.” In fact, Penn suggested that America won’t see a 2.0 version, but instead a refurbished “Hillary 4.0” release that is firing on all cylinders.

But Clinton’s former spokesperson, Philippe Reines blasted Penn’s assessment of her chances of running, suggesting that Penn is out of the loop with the Clinton camp and doesn’t know what he’s talking about.

A district that spends its 0-35 year existence as a GOP stronghold flipping should be a signal flare. Its a good time to find a way to scam some of the tidal wave of GOP cash that will be free flowing for the next two years.

Just in case Penn is not completely wrong, how do we tell her to go away?

Did you mean “Republican” incumbent Mimi Walters?

WASHINGTON — The White House is looking for ways to remove an enemy of Turkish President Recep Erdogan from the U.S. in order to placate Turkey over the murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi, according to two senior U.S. officials and two other people briefed on the requests.

Trump administration officials last month asked federal law enforcement agencies to examine legal ways of removing exiled Turkish cleric Fethullah Gulen in an attempt to persuade Erdogan to ease pressure on the Saudi government, the four sources said.

The effort includes directives to the Justice Department and FBI that officials reopen Turkey's case for his extradition, as well as a request to the Homeland Security Department for information about his legal status, the four people said.

They said the White House specifically wanted details about Gulen's residency status in the U.S. Gulen has a Green Card, according to two people familiar with the matter. He has been living in Pennsylvania since the late 1990s.

I think it was incorrectly transcribed. I think it is actually: 'my whole staff of TRAITORS, because that's what they are.'
