ANY MINUTE NOW, MSM WILL DEMAND CONGRESS REVEAL HUSH FUND USERS: I mean, mainstream media journalists believe in transparency and accountability in government, right? And such journalists don’t have any partisan axes to grind, right? Journalists like these always report without fear or favor, right?

So I’m willing to bet reporters from CNN, MSNBC, NBC, ABC, CBS, Washington Post, New York Times, Vox, USAToday, TPM, etc. etc. are at this very moment screaming into their cell phones at recalcitrant Democratic flaks demanding to know if their bosses ever used the tax-funded hush fund to pay off sexual harassment accusers.

Why are you laughing so hard? What’s that you say, I should read The American Thinker’s  Daniel John Sobieski’s “Reveal the Hush-Fund Hypocrites.”

YOUNG ADULT WEBSITE VOX.COM REALLY DELIVERING THE HOME RUNS THESE DAYS:

● Shot: Why women have better sex under socialism, according to an anthropologist.

—Headline, Vox.com, today. As Iowahawk tweets in response, “Oooh yeah comrade, you slip into that burlap nightie and I’ll put on some Barry Whiteov and then it’s time for some sexy sexy Marxian dialectic.”

● Chaser:

—Found via Twitchy: ‘Hot take alert’! Matt Yglesias’ case for President Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez must be seen to be believed.

Of course, it’s Matt Yglesias, and as he himself has admitted, there’s no reason to believe anything you’ve seen from him:

HMM: Did Clinton Foundation mislead IRS? State filings raise the question.

The Utah episode, though a decade old, and other state regulatory issues involving the Clinton Foundation are gaining new attraction because they are included in thousands of pages of documents gathered in a whistleblower submission filed last year by a firm composed of former federal law enforcement investigators, called MDA Analytics LLC.

That submission made with the IRS, and eventually provided to the Justice Department in Washington and to the FBI in Little Rock, Ark., alleges there is “probable cause” to believe the Clinton Foundation broke federal tax law and possibly owes millions of dollars in tax penalties. That submission and its supporting evidence will be one focus of a GOP-led congressional hearing Thursday in the House.

The foundation strongly denies any wrongdoing. But it acknowledges its own internal legal reviews in 2008 and 2011 cited employee concerns ranging from quid pro quo promises to donors, to improper commingling of personal and charity business.

Another of the issues the foundation’s own lawyers flagged: a culture of noncompliance.

Much more at the link.
