Fake News.

Serious stuff: After watching The Wizard of OZ, the character, "Cowardly Lion", Obama decides to award VP, Joe Biden, with the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
What has Biden done to earn such recognition. Oh, he heaped praises on Obama for about ten minutes. I guess that requires little character but some unusual mental gymnastics and linguistic talents.

Fusion GPS, Firm Behind the Trump-Russia Dossier, Linked to Planned Parenthood
By Tyler O'Neil
January 13, 2017

The firm behind the dossier on President-elect Donald Trump's ties to Russia, which Trump dismissed as "fake news" and a "complete fabrication," also defended Planned Parenthood in 2015 against sting videos demonstrating the abortion giant's attempt to profit from the sale of baby parts.

According to a New York Times exposé, a wealthy Republican donor strongly opposed to Trump hired Fusion GPS, a Washington research firm run by former journalists, to dig into Trump's past scandals and weaknesses in September 2015. After Trump secured the GOP nomination, the Republican donor backed out, leaving Democrats to continue to fund the effort. Fusion GPS produced the dossier, which Trump has flatly denied (and which has already been disproven, at least in part).

While the Times' source remained anonymous, Fusion GPS has a history of attacking conservative causes.

In 2012, the firm aimed its guns on donors to Republican nominee Mitt Romney and socially conservative donors. Idaho businessman Frank VanderSloot was targeted in a smear campaign after it was disclosed he had donated $1 million to a super PAC supporting Romney. President Obama's campaign website attacked him as a "bitter foe of the gay rights movement" because his wife donated to one of the many anti-gay-marriage campaigns across the country in recent years.

The Clinton Foundation Shuts Down Clinton Global Initiative
On January 12, a WARN notice was filed with the New York Department of Labor—the main office of the Clinton Global Initiative would be closing
By Michael Sainato • 01/15/17 7:45am

WASHINGTON, DC - JANUARY 10: Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton speaks at a reception celebrating the completion of the U.S. Diplomacy Center Pavilion, at the State Department on January 10, 2017 in Washington, DC. The first floor of the pavilion was dedicated and named the Hillary Rodham Clinton Pavilion.

The Clinton Foundation’s long list of wealthy donors and foreign government contributors during the 2016 elections provoked critics to allege conflicts of interests. Clinton partisans defended the organization’s charitable work, and dismissed claims that it served as a means for the Clintons to sell off access, market themselves on the paid speech circuit, and elevate their brand as Hillary Clinton campaigned for the presidency.

But as soon as Clinton lost the election, many of the criticisms directed toward the Clinton Foundation were reaffirmed. Foreign governments began pulling out of annual donations, signaling the organization’s clout was predicated on donor access to the Clintons, rather than its philanthropic work. In November, the Australian government confirmed it “has not renewed any of its partnerships with the scandal-plagued Clinton Foundation, effectively ending 10 years of taxpayer-funded contributions worth more than $88 million.” The government of Norway also drastically reduced their annual donations, which reached $20 million a year in 2015.

On January 12, the Clinton Foundation received more bad news: a WARN notice was filed with the New York Department of Labor. The main office of the Clinton Global Initiative in New York City would be closing, laying off 22 employees. The Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act (WARN) “offers protection to workers, their families and communities by requiring employers to provide notice 60 days in advance of covered plant closings and covered mass layoffs. This notice must be provided to either affected workers or their representatives (e.g., a labor union); to the State dislocated worker unit; and to the appropriate unit of local government.” The reason for the filing was stated as the “discontinuation of the Clinton Global Initative,” after CGI previously announced layoffs leading up to the general election."

Trump voters should be embarrassed and ashamed. What are those poor Haitian kids and victims of AIDs in Africa going to use as their hope for the future. All that Clinton talent going to waste. Now Hillary will be forced to use her talent to knit "Pussy cat hats" to protest MAGA.
Its a cruel world!
