Donna Brazile’s new book is out, and reporters at the Daily Caller, who apparently have already combed through the book, have published a series of stories summarizing the book’s most embarrassing and shocking allegations about the Clinton campaign and DNC.
Their reporting shows Brazile taking aim at other erstwhile political allies like former President Barack Obama, whom she blamed for leaving the DNC in disarray, while also revealing who she believes may have been responsible for Seth Rich’s murder.
Brazile says a chill ran down her spine when Hillary Clinton refused to concede to Donald Trump on election night of 2016 after a hushed mood had fallen over crowds of supporters at the Javits Center, who had arrived in high spirits, expecting their candidate to be swiftly anointed by the American electorate.
Unfortunately for Clinton’s most hard-core supporters, the voters had other plans. Furthermore, Brazile said Clinton’s refusal reminder her of Democratic presidential candidate Al Gore’s reaction to the election results in 2000, when Gore refused to concede and demanded a recount after results showed that George W. Bush had won.
Clinton adviser Minyon Moore “told me that at 1:30 a.m. John Podesta was going to address the crowd at the Javits Center and tell them to go home,” Brazile writes. “A shiver came over me, a memory of the Gore defeat, where we had Bill Daley go out and address the crowd because Gore was still wrestling with the results, as I knew Hillary was tonight."
In another surprising - and ultimately revelatory - anecdote, Brazile recounted how former Democratic National Committee chair Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz did not seem particularly concerned about the cyber breach that led to Wikileaks’ publication of internal emails.
DWS even waited more than a month after first learning of it in April. Then she refused to apologize to those affected by the breach.
As for the murder of Seth Rich - the subject of perhaps the most controversial claims advanced by Brazile so far - Brazile has a couple of theories - though neither involve the Democratic Party.
I felt some responsibility for Seth Rich’s death. I didn’t bring him into the DNC, but I helped keep him there working on voting rights. With all I knew now about the Russians’ hacking, I could not help but wonder if they had played some part in his unsolved murder.
Besides that, racial tensions were high that summer and I worried that he was murdered for being white on the wrong side of town. [My friend] Elaine expressed her doubts about that, and I heard her.
The FBI said that they did not see any Russian fingerprints there.
Finally, Brazile wrote that Obama “leeched [the party] of its vitality” in the lead-up to the 2016 election campaign.
“We had three Democratic parties: The party of Barack Obama, the party of Hillary Clinton, and this weak little vestige of a party led by [Florida Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz] that was doing a very poor job getting people who were not president elected,” Brazile.

As the excerpts that were published before the book’s official release made clear, Brazile has a particularly strong distaste for Robby Mook, Clinton’s former campaign manager.
The intensity of her dislike is laid bare throughout her book. With that in mind, here are 12 choice quotes about Mook, courtesy of the Daily Caller.
1) The Cultish Nature of the Mook Crew
“I want to talk about the arrogance and isolation of the Clinton campaign and the cult of Robby Mook, who felt fresh but turned up stale, in a campaign haunted by ghosts and lacking in enthusiasm, focus, and heart."
2) ‘What Does This Have To Do With The Russians?"
“From offstage, I could hear Robby Mook, Hillary’s campaign manager, pretaping a segment before the roundtable. Robby was talking about the Russians, and the Russians, and the Russians, and I thought, ‘What does this have to do with the Russians?‘"
3) ‘Leaving You With The Impression That He Has Listened To You'
“Try as I might to explain it to Brooklyn, all of my urgent pleas felt like they were words falling down a well. Take Hillary’s campaign manager, Robby Mook. He had this habit of nodding when you are talking, leaving you with the impression that he has listened to you, but then never seeming to follow up on what you thought you had agreed on."
4) ‘Everybody Worshiped The Data And The Analytics'
“The young men that surrounded Robby Mook–and they were all men in his inner circle–had mastered a cool and removed style of politics. They knew how to size up voters not by meeting them and finding out what they cared about, what moved their hearts and stirred their souls, but by analyzing their habits. They could take all the things you bought while shopping online in the last six years, analyze them, and say they were confident that they knew pretty much all there was to know about you. … Everybody worshiped the data and the analytics."
5) ‘I’m About To Kill Robby'
“One night when I went home I called Charlie Baker to warn him that I was struggling to keep Dolores contained. ‘Charlie, I’m about to kill Robby,’ I told him. ‘And it ain’t going to be pretty.'"
6) Does He Not Know Who I Am?
“Did he not understand that I had long-standing friendships with most of his superiors in Brooklyn, with the exception of Robby Mook?"
7) ‘Believed He Understood The Country By The Cluster Of Information About Voters He Had Gathered'
“Robby Mook believed he understood the country by the cluster of information about voters he had gathered.
I remember saying to him, after he described this very smart way he had determined which candidate people in a particular neighborhood were likely to vote for, that he was neglecting the whole story."
8) He Kind Of Unnerved Me
“He has a cool gaze of someone who has a determined sense of values and judges everyone by those principles. That inner cool makes someone like me who runs hot feel as though I’m bouncing off the walls when I talk."
9) ‘Robby Was Unwavering'
“Even when Clinton squeaked by in the Iowa caucuses and when she took a drubbing in New Hampshire, Robby was unwavering. He had a plan and he was sticking to it."
10) ‘They Saw Me Only As Someone Who Could Rouse Up The Emotions'
“Robby asked me to address the staff and volunteers, and I gave a speech off the cuff that was designed to remind them of the reasons we do this...
They saw me only as someone who could rouse up the emotions, but they were not interested in my practical advice. My feeling was that data was a tool for engagement, but there was no substitute for that human touch. This was a message that sunk to the carpet in the antiseptic rooms of Brooklyn."
11) ‘Dismissed My Report With A Condescending Tone'
“Mook’s lieutenant Marlon Marshall ‘dismissed my report with a condescending tone in his responses. He and Robby didn’t appreciate challenges to their strategy.'"
...And in the spirit of saving the best for last...
12) ‘I Could Hear Tears In His Voice'
“As the train pulled out of Philadelphia my phone rang. It was Robby Mook.
‘Madam Chair, I’m so sorry,’ he said. I could hear the tears in his voice. ‘I’m so sorry.'
‘I know, Robby,’ I said. ‘You did your best. You worked hard. We all did."
Now that the book has been released and read through by members of the media, we imagine all of the explosive revelations contained therein have, at this point, been widely discussed.
However, even if people continue to disgaree about the purity of Brazile's motives, one thing is certain: She has managed to deeply embarrass a Democratic Party establishment that has somehow retained its grip on power, even after the drubbings Democratic candidates have taken during the last two election cycles. Perhaps Brazile’s revelations - particularly the exposure of the Clinton campaign-DNC joint fundraising agreement will go a long way toward undermining the very forces that advocated for Clinton and her particular brand of antisceptic incrementalism.
His name was Seth Rich.
Hi Donna :
how about you donate a portion (or all ?) of your book profits to hire a team of competent PI's to investigate Seth Rich's death ?
Excellent idea. Hope she thinks of that.
Probably will not donate shi'te though.
She needs to convince everyone that she has abandoned her divisive politics so that she can sell more books.
A political whore.
Nothing more.
Russian fingerprints somehow appear differently?
Red?
Oily?
The Russians saw DNC/Arkancide footprints all over the young patriot
Am I the only one that had to look up "erstwhile"? It means "former". Because, you know, erstwhile is so much cooler than saying former.
It wasn't the Russians who murdered Seth, Donna. You know deep in your heart that it was a Clinton who ordered the hit.
she's giving all the clues she can while not yelling CLINTON. she plays stupid so as not to die next..we will see about that. I think she's trying to point out the obvious without being "too forward"..
"I felt some responsibilty for Seth Rich's death....."
Classic tell. Textbook.
No immunity for this chimp.
Rich worked on "get out the vote" analyses that were probably used to pad HRC's primary vote counts to steal the nomination from Bernie. Having a pang of guilt, he downloaded the files that ultimately found their way to WikiLeaks. He paid with his life, but too late. Still, how, other than fear, did the Clinton machine keep Assange from publishing the worst of these files at a more relevant time?
Could have easily been John Podesta who ordered the hit.
I see she doesn't bring his name up. Why?
Her clue is in who she does NOT mention; you can bet she knows who did it.
"I felt some responsibility for Seth Rich’s death. I didn’t bring him into the DNC, but I helped keep him there working on voting rights. With all I knew now about the Russians’ hacking, I could not help but wonder if they had played some part in his unsolved murder."
She had a chance to come clean and chose not to.
Welp, ya know wut tey say 'bout dem niggas: "You can take da nigga out da hood, but you can't take da hood out da nigga."
Why the hell would the Russians kill Seth Rich if they hacked the DNC? The stupid is so thick it makes my eyes sting.
my coffee was bad this morning...damn russians!
"Besides that, racial tensions were high that summer and I worried that he was murdered for being white on the wrong side of town."
That wouldn't be the real cause for you to fear for your own safety. In case you're not aware, you're not white! You're just too gutless to spell out whom you really fear, and that ain't the Russians.
Even Jesse Jackson got nervous in DC when he heard footsteps behind him at night and that was many years ago. He was relieved when he turned around and found that it was a white person.
So a drunk white boy gets mugged on the way home from a DC after hours bar at 4:15 am, puts up a struggle and is shot to death in a mixed neighborhood. It's all very believable to me and I say this as someone who was attending a major university and got mugged around midnight in the summer many years ago. Fortunately, I did not put up a fight and gave the dindus my wallet. He probably did put up a struggle and was shot to death at the scene.
Read up on the fine points, especially his time in the hospital.
Psst. Fatso, er, Donna, please meet Ms. Clinton and her "campaign team" in Fort Marcy Park at 11 pm tonight.
Love,
Bill
The FBI didn't see Russian fingerprints there???
But the FBI never investigated the case or did they???
She is at the very least complicit in knowing about the hit. Remember she started off with" I was completely in the dark about everything," then she pulled the slave card out. The Russia narrative is dead, and she is playing stupid. If the truth comes out, that book will be bonfire material.
Could be DWS along with Clinton. DWS probably hired Black Cube who discovered the seriousness if the matter and referred some experts who could do it.
At the end of the day, despite her reminesces of idealism and grandeur, she worked with and for the Devil herself. There is no walking away from that. She owns it, now and forever. The only thing that can cleanse her soul, is to turn states evidence and start talking about what she really knows, despite that most likely implicating herself as an accomplice in the crimes.
Debbie Was-a-man Shultz has the eyes of a murderer...
Methinks the Podfather had enough latitude to make that decision...
Only the Botswanese nsa hasn't got everything,too far for the drums to carry.
Just another instance of them having to interject muh russians into every conversation, I suppose. If Brazille REALLY wants to unmask these people, she could just admit that all this Russians nonsense was BS contrived by the Clintons to distract from the damning content of those emails.
Don't know if any of you guys get Walton and Johnson in the morning where you live, but they had a pretty funny prediction about Donna Brazille's demise - something along the lines of she will be found dead from a single gun sho, her body laid out neat, ready for a casket, with a gun in her hand that there is no record of her ever having bought, and no family or friend knowing about, with a neatly typed out note explaining that she was wrong and hillary clinton didn't do anything wrong, she should have won, and its all her fault and she's sorry.
Choked on a Popeye's drumstick in her car in the parking lot.
They don't make drumsticks that big.
Easy peasy lemon squeeze: Russian fingerprints look like American footprints.
dna
Deoxyrussia nucleic acid?
Does that still qualify as a DNA molecule?
80 proof
If the Negronomicon reveals the evil that is the Clinton machine for all to see - and prosecutions result - then it was worth every shekel.
I'll believe that when the indictments are unsealed for the entire clinton crime family.
Pardon me if I don't hold my breath.
Well, I think that's not 'all she wrote' on the Clintons...which, now, carries a double meaning considering the subject matter.
She might gain more notoriety and fame by announcing the existence of a posthumous declaration that is only to be opened upon her untimely or wrongful death.
She just seems like she is trying to cash in on the political divide in the US.
She admitted she did not get paid for that dnc job. She's got overdue bills!
Trying to revive her bullshit TV cred. NO!
"The FBI said that they did not see any Russian fingerprints there..."
Did lying, cheating, murdering FBI see any democratic fingerprints there?
this is the DNC's attempt to placate the repub and populist voters so she can infiltrate the ranks as a turncoat; only to become a trojan horse.
Thanks a Brazillion.
From reading this, I'll finally come down on the side of all the Israeli haters and say it was probably a former Mossad agent:
https://www.newyorker.com/news/news-desk/harvey-weinsteins-army-of-spies
After reading that, I dare anyone not to believe that Weinstein deserves a bullet in the head, and that David Boies deserves a bullet in the head and that all Mossad and former Mossad agents should be immediately deported --- before ANYONE else!
WELL..... "WE HAVE TO MAKE AN EXAMPLE OF SOMEONE"..... JOHN PODESTA
rich wasnt dead or mortally wounded... but died after going to a hospital with Podesta's Dr. friend in charge...
one interm said his room was blocked from med treatment....
Donna Brazile’s “Spook” Friend Told Her She Needed Protection For Herself - Cameras, Alarms, Backup Power At House – However - Remember The Wheeler Investigation!
http://investmentwatchblog.com/donna-braziles-spook-friend-told-her-she-...
That's racist!
This bitch is hammering the political war drums in an effort to promote her book.
By making Seth Rich a household name I think she may have dared the reds to do something about blatant DNC hit squads, knowing they will not, as usual. The blues simply DO NOT CARE about Honest Hill'rey's crimes, never have, never will. Same with MSM.
Because if the reds don't do anything about this, as amazing as it may seem, the will manage to look even worse.
