‘Kompromat’: 2016 Russian Intel Alleged Hillary Clinton Used Heavy Tranquilizers, Faced Serious Illnesses
The Russians also reportedly had information that Clinton “suffered from ‘Type 2 diabetes, Ischemic heart disease, deep vein thrombosis, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.’”
A newly declassified report produced in September 2020 by the House Intelligence Committee revealed that, in 2016, Russian intelligence had obtained internal Democratic National Committee emails alleging that Hillary Clinton was on a daily regimen of heavy tranquilizers and faced several serious illnesses as well.
According to the report:
The SVR [Russia’s foreign intelligence service] possessed DNC communications that Clinton was suffering from “intensified psycho-emotional problems including uncontrolled fits of anger, aggression, and cheerfulness.” Clinton was placed on a daily regimen of “heavy tranquilizers” and while afraid of losing, she remained “obsessed with a thirst for power.
The report claims that former President Barack Obama and Democratic Party leaders found Clinton’s health issues to be “extraordinarily alarming.”
As of September 2016, the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service had DNC information that President Obama and Party leaders found the state of Secretary Clinton’s health to be “extraordinarily alarming,” and felt it could have “serious negative impact” on her election prospects. Her health information was being kept in ‘strictest secrecy’ and even close advisors were not being fully informed.
The Russians also reportedly had information that Clinton “suffered from ‘Type 2 diabetes, Ischemic heart disease, deep vein thrombosis, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.’”
According to Fox News, the Russians had also obtained a “campaign email discussing a plan approved by Secretary Clinton to link Putin and Russian hackers to candidate Trump in order to ‘distract the American public’ from the Clinton email server scandal.”
Gabbard discussed the report during a press briefing on Wednesday. While her main focus was on the portion that related to the Obama administration’s manipulation of the 2017 Intelligence Community Assessment on Russian interference in the 2016 election (which I reported on here), Gabbard said there were “high level DNC emails that detailed evidence of Hillary’s, quote, psycho-emotional problems, uncontrolled fits of anger, aggression and cheerfulness, and that then Secretary Clinton was allegedly on a daily regimen of heavy tranquilizers.”

Perhaps one of the most memorable days of the 2016 presidential election cycle occurred at a 9/11 memorial ceremony in New York City where Clinton fell ill. She was escorted to a waiting SUV and had to be held up by aides as she stumbled into the vehicle.
Several hours later, she emerged from her daughter’s apartment building smiling. She appeared to be — well — “excessively cheerful.” She told supporters she was “feeling great” and that it was a “beautiful day in New York.”
Later, her campaign issued a statement saying she had become “overheated” at the event.
Shortly afterward, she developed a persistent cough. She was soon diagnosed with pneumonia, put on antibiotics, and “told to modify her schedule.”
Now we know why Hillary really fell out and had to be tossed into that van

Even then, the party was willing to rally behind a presidential candidate with potential psychological issues and several serious health problems. But hey—who cares about the president’s fitness for office, as long as there’s a “D” next to their name?

Why won’t the bitch just die so we can have a nice party (and Bill can be free).
She still has Secret Service protection, so getting close to her sleeping coffin with a stake and mallet is difficult.
I think Trump might have withdrawn her protection, I can’t recall.
In any event with that many problems she should just drop dead already unless she is so pickled by bourbon she’ll live forever.
The illnesses obviously weren’t that serious. Nine years later and she’s still here on Planet Earth.
Jimmy Carter survived brain cancer for nine years. You never can tell.
Too mean to die.
Only the good die young.
I knew a Ss that hand Hilary duty. Sound like she was a load of fun/s
Sounds like the stories of her throwing lamps at Bill are pretty accurate.
“uncontrolled fits of anger”
Well, no WONDER she was the party’s nominee!
FSB Russian Intelligence also determined that the Ukrainians wanted Ukraine to be re-annexed by Russia.
The KGB had actual skill and was a worthy adversary and extremely dangerous as an enemy.
The only thing the FSB is good at is suppressing Russians on behalf of the Kremlin, it is literally a parody of the KGB that kept the stereotype secret police brutality and lost all of the skills of a legitimate intelligence agency.
Read a little closer. This is an internal US assessment of what the Russians had been able to get from hacking various government and political email systems like you all keep claiming they did to the DNC. So which is it, are they bumbling idiots or capable of turning a US election upside down? It seems like your claims are always based on what advances the Democrat narrative, not reality
Hey asshole try learning some basic reading comprehension.
1. I have only ever attacked Russiagate
2. I AM A REPUBLICAN WHO VOTED TRUMP IDIOT
3. I ONLY EVER ATTACKED RUSSIAN INTELL
4. You are an asshole who attacks people based entirely on a figment of the imagination.
How about this idiot
Throw the phone in the trash throw the computer in the trash and stop being on the internet you clearly can’t handle it.
Gee Danny. For a thin-skinned prick, you take criticism remarkably well.
By the way asshole how is conquering Ukraine going? FSB claimed the Ukrainian Army was demoralized, that Ukrainians would welcome reunification, that pro-Putin sentiment was widespread…..
How did that turn out?
Trust and FSB assessment and you are an idiot.
The only thing the FSB is good at is oppression of Russians.
By the way jackass
FSB claims Trump is a deranged lunatic was I wrong to vote for him?
While the FSB was sharing “intel” with Iran during Iranian attempts to kill Donald Trump American law enforcement and intelligence was trying to foil them.
“Hillary used heavy tranquilizers”
Q: How heavy were they?
A: Heavy enough to put down a horse.
Q: Well, what were they for?
A: For intensified psycho-emotional problems including uncontrolled fits of anger, aggression, and cheerfulness.
Q: But other than that, she was okay, right?
A: Yes, except for type 2 diabetes, ischemic heart disease, deep vein thrombosis, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
The only thing I find odd and out of place is “fits of excessive cheerfulness.” Has H. Clinton ever seemed cheerful?
I find it odd the Russians thought Hillary had a heart.
LOL!!
Yes. Usually after the fourth vodka tonic.
Manic Depressive. Even cheerful is defined as crazy with that one.
Was it cheerfulness or tearfulness?
But, but, but… Trump’s swollen ankles!
Here’s a good test to find out if you’re stupid and gullible: If the Director of National Intelligence of the United States of America – a long-time and obvious Russian asset (and a full-fledged member of a Hawaiian cult named “Science of Identity Foundation”, a cult she was born into, by the way) – parrots Russian “intelligence” propaganda, and you believe it, you test positive for both stupidity and gullibility.
“A newly declassified report produced in September 2020 by the House Intelligence Committee revealed that, in 2016, Russian intelligence had obtained internal Democratic National Committee emails alleging that Hillary Clinton was on a daily regimen of heavy tranquilizers and faced several serious illnesses as well.”
Wow. You didn’t even make it past the first sentence. It’s not Gabbard saying this. It’s a House Intelligence Committee report from five years ago.
“… the House Intelligence Committee revealed that, in 2016, Russian intelligence…”
irishgladiator63 – a person who believes what “Russian intelligence” says about anything. The word “gullible” in the dictionary should have a picture of irishgladiator63, whoever she is.
I didn’t say I believed it, though it makes sense given what we knew. I just was saying you apparently don’t know how to read.
Look out folks, don’t step in the pile of donkey dung.
Speaking of disinformation. Who pays you and how much?
I was born into cult too, called the “Roman Catholic Church.” I dare say that today I likely have better atheist bona fides than do you. Being born into a cult is (as Ian Anderson sang) just an accident of birth. It doesn’t necessarily have anything to do with who the person is as an adult.
I agree with what you’ve said here. But I guess I should have added that Gabbard has – as an adult – done nothing to distance herself from the cult, nor from it’s leader.
You are obviously getting desperate.
So being Catholic is a cult? I guess you have a lot of guilt and could not handle it. Btw what makes it a cult?
Faith is not a cult. Faith is the foundation of the country and what is right about it.
Denying it makes science ur religion. Good luck with that.
“a long-time and obvious Russian asset…” he says without a shred of evidence.
“a full-fledged member of a Hawaiian cult named “Science of Identity Foundation” Yawn. So what?
“you test positive for both stupidity and gullibility.” That obviously doesn’t apply to anyone here other than you, but I guess it beats testing positive for gonorrhea and syphilis which, from what I understand, also afflict you.
Time for you to go make the donuts, dufus.
This health info – and I saw it live her almost being tossed in the back of that limo when she appeared to collapse – satisfies me that Putin wanted Clinton to win. Plastering “poor health” everywhere might have made it not close.
Here’s another helpful stupidity/gullibility test: If you can’t see that this all is a calculated distraction from the issue of Trump’s involvement with Epstein – facts which are coming to light, and coming to light, interestingly, due to pressure from his very base – then you are, again, positive for stupidity and gullibility. Blue Cross Blue Shield does not cover this, but like most of rural America, you can probably get on disability benefits for these test results. Just ride your mobility scooter to cover your fat ass, optics-wise.
Here’s a test for TDS: If you think anyone has anything nefarious on Trump related to Epstein that wasn’t used to prevent him from running for president three times, winning two presidential elections (and possibly three), and wasn’t used to impeach him during his first administration nor used to indict him between administrations, you’re likely suffering from Stage 4 TDS.
TDS is a medical disease AND a cult.
Its a mental health issue.
Here is a test for are you a conspiracy theorist asshole
1. Is what you said completely evidence free (i.e. everything you just said)?
2. If you have no evidence you are a conspiracy theorist asshole.
So asshole would you like to have a life lets so the life of whoever Reselyup is irl ruined based on nothing but lies and slander told by enemies?
You’ve never gotten laid, have you.
Sure he did. How do you think your mom paid the bills?
Go to cnn.com and read the article where it says Pam Bondi told Trump his name was in the Epstein files. Then read down in the article where it says a lot of other names were in it too and the fact that a name simply is there doesn’t connect it to anything improper.
Even Contrived News Network calls it a nothing burger.
Jackass.
.
Most of CNN readers will only read the headlines
I stopped when I got to the words “cnn.com”.
Pretty sure that BCBS won’t pay for the overdue operation to remove your head from your ass, Sippy Cup.
Got anything else?
Another JR acolyte. A mind is a terrible thing to waste.
“…Clinton was suffering from ‘intensified psycho-emotional problems including uncontrolled fits of anger’….”
On election night 2016, word is she was so butthurt with cottage-cheese-leg-shaking rage she destroyed a $100,000 big-screen display with a bottle of champagne.
So much for “her turn…”
I doubt she was suffering with those ailments – she probably thoroughly enjoyed every minute.
“Your honor, my client suffers from chronic mental health issues and has been under medication/ treatment for the same for many years—she couldn’t possibly be held accountable let alone tried in a court of law for her actions while suffering to such an extent. We therefore request an immediate and complete dismissal of any charges brought here “
Why are we wasting time on tabloid level gossip? This admin has too many wins on the board to be messaging out these distractions
What about the Parkinson’s?
“Clinton suffered from Type 2 diabetes, Ischemic heart disease, deep vein thrombosis, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.”
Not credible as those conditions are chronic, degenerative and interact. She would not be still alive after 9 years. Especially for someone in her age cohort. On the other hand, the part about the use of tranquilizers does seem likely. According to Joseph Califano (former Secretary of Health, Education, and Welfare) Congress people engage in chronic and frequent use of psychoactive medications. He quotes one member as saying he couldn’t get through the day without Valium.
I remember one doctor telling us in 2016 that Hillary very likely suffered from Parkinson’s disease. Obviously that wasn’t true as well. I, personally think Hillary comes across as a nut case based on her statements and behavior. She’s a frequent and obvious liar. Who believes she turned an initial $1,000 investment in cattle futures contracts into $100,000 after one year? The pros can’t do that as this kind of trading is very risky. She said she learned how to do that from reading the WSJ. She told us she was named after Sir Edmund Hillary (first to reach the summit of Mt Everest). Yikes Sir Edmund was an obscure Australian bee keeper when she was born. I call her a recreational liar. She lies even when unnecessary.
In my opinion, we should ignore most everything that comes from anybody’s intel, especially Russian, American, and British. These agencies are in the business of lying, deception, manipulation, and assassination. See “Target Patton” by Wilcox.
I remember reading when Hillary was running that she always travelled in a van equipped inside like an ambulance. One tabloid reporter followed it and found that it would occasionally stop on side streets to deposit her feces and urine right in the road, and then take off. What a litter bug.
Was Randy Quaid her driver?
Why do any of you feed the troll? It only empowers them to think they are important. The info in the report came from inside the DNC. It wasn’t gossip. She had the Labor Day “tossed in the Scooby Van” incident. The convention spaced out staring at the confetti incident. MIA election night. The woman is a dark, malevolent, human being without a shred of decency. Not to mention 50+ people she knew or worked for her and her husband who all happened to die by suicide or were an unsolved homicide. By the way, why is the FBI still hiding Seth Rich’s computer?
The thrive on the oxygen of oxygen of attention. People need to stop feeding the trolls.
I remember the exact moment I began to despise Mrs. Clinton. Mr. Clinton was running for president, and Mrs. Clinton was being interviewed. She said something like, “I don’t stay home baking cookies,” with utter contempt for those who do.
I must give her props, however grudgingly, for her appearance at the second inaugural ball. She was beautiful.
How many famous Republicans switched parties to become Democrats?
Interesting the only one I can think of is pretty sleazely.
Remember that video of HIllary being heaved into the van? Time to put that on endless replay.
why/where do you think that nina jankovitz came from?
why do you think she “came out of nowheres” to lead the disinformation act?
and why do you think that the fjb QUICKLY dismissed her when there was heat put on !!??
b/c imho,,she was leading or part of the hillary squad
call her in for questioning
Does the gop Really want to get justice against the dems??
pam bondi might
but what about the house and senate gop who see themselves as losing power if real investigations begin!
Why not just say bipolar?
Well, this explains her “ack-ack-ack” moment in the lights at the DNC convention.
“She’s fi-i-inne.”
