Another interesting day where underlying story’s indicate significant problems ahead for the Democrat party in general, and their presidential candidate specifically.  

Deb Reichmann of the Associated Press @mcclatchydc.com, via Drudge, writes that: “CIA Director John Brennan will tell Congress [today] that Islamic State militants are training and attempting to deploy operatives for further attacks on the West and will rely more on guerrilla-style tactics to compensate for their territorial losses. 

“In remarks prepared for the Senate Intelligence Committee, Brennan says IS has been working to build an apparatus to direct and inspire attacks against its foreign enemies, as in the recent attacks in Paris and Brussels — ones the CIA believes were directed by IS leaders.” 

"ISIL has a large cadre of Western fighters who could potentially serve as operatives for attacks in the West," Brennan said, using another acronym for the group. He said ISIL probably is working to smuggle them into countries, perhaps among refugee flows or through legitimate means of travel.” 

Yet, even though his own CIA Director points out clearly the dangers of open borders, the POTUS still insists on finding ways to bring still more illegal immigrants into the nation every day.  

Which may be why the next item has so much significance. 

Because, while the content is interesting, it’s even more so because of the individual involved. Dan Rather, faithful supporter of the left.    

Rather, former "CBS Evening News" anchor, said Wednesday that Republican Donald Trump can win the presidency, and Democratic supporters of Hillary Clinton should be "very, very afraid." 

"I'm not predicting [Trump] will win, but I will say he's capable of winning in November. He has a path," Rather told CNBC's "Squawk Box," adding he does not expect the real estate billionaire to bow to pressure to be more "presidential." 

"Anybody who thinks Donald Trump is going to moderate himself along the way is either slightly 'touched' or 'smoking something very expensive.' It's not going to happen," said Rather, currently host of "The Big Interview" on AXS TV. 

"My own opinion again," Rather said, "Democrats who want Hillary Clinton to be president should be afraid. They should be very, very afraid." 

Giving Rather’s opinion even more credibility, Bernie Sanders certainly seems to agree with him, whereas as reported by Jonathan Easley @thehill.com/blogs: “Bernie Sanders is staying in the Democratic presidential race after meeting with rival Hillary Clinton, the party’s presumptive nominee, for nearly two hours at a Washington, D.C., hotel on Tuesday night.  

After meeting with Bill Clinton’s wife at the Capital Hilton, “Sanders has given no indication that he intends to drop out before the convention.  

“He will address supporters via video live-stream on Thursday, but spokesman Michael Briggs said earlier on Tuesday that Sanders will not drop out "today, or tomorrow, or the next day.”  

“He has said that he plans to stay in this through the Democratic convention,” Briggs said, according to Bloomberg News. 

“That’s the signal Sanders has given to his closest supporters as well.” 

And perhaps, Sanders reason for not conceding and dropping out is because of information found in article’s such as one Eric Owens wrote today about Bill Clinton’s wife @dailycaller.com, which is today’s update regarding her. 

Mr. Owens writes: “Earlier this week, Hillary Clinton harshly criticized three countries for directly funding terrorists who are actively seeking to attack the United States and Western Europe. The governments of this trio of nations have contributed between $16 million and $40 million to the Clinton Foundation. 

“Clinton sharply denounced the three countries — Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and Qatar — in a speech in Cleveland on Monday.” 

Yet, in typical Clinton fashion, despite her berating them in speeches: “The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has given the Clinton Foundation an unspecified amount between $10 million and $25 million, according to the nonprofit’s records. 

“The State of Kuwait has donated between $5 million and $10 to the Clinton Foundation. 

“The State Of Qatar has given the Clinton Foundation between $1 million and $5 million.” 

At the same time, the Foundation itself explains: “The Clinton Foundation’s impact would not be possible without the generous support of our donors and grantors. Their generosity makes our work possible and we thank them.” 

Following the article, a reader, cincinnatius, applied an old story which is well worth repeating due to its accuracy: “Clinton personifies the story about Winston Churchill when he asks the lady: "Madam, would you sleep with me for a million dollars?" Lady: "Yes." Churchill: Would you sleep with me for 1 dollar." Lady: "Absolutely not! What do you think I am?" Churchill: Madam, we have already established what you are, we're now merely negotiating the price." Clinton established long ago what she is and everyone knows her price! Why the idiots in this country can't/won't see that she will sell out their country, future, children for a price is beyond me.” 

Thus, what remains to be seen with five more months to go in the presidential campaign, is precisely what Trump will do with this kind of ammunition to aim at Bill’s wife. Along with the still brewing two investigations the FBI’s conducting. And, as important, if not more so, just how much risk will the POTUS continue to take by putting this corrupt family in charge of his “legacy”?   

Bringing up the ongoing question again: Joe Biden, Jerry Brown, and Starbucks chairman and CEO, Howard Schultz, are you guys reading this?  

That’s it for today folks.
