So delighted to be at @georgetownsfs today for a de facto State Department reunion with old colleagues and friends, 10 years since I took office as secretary of state. pic.twitter.com/GTOBEkttQS

When I met @MeehanBM she was a bright young foreign service officer. Now she’s leading a panel of fellow senior diplomats to kick off our “Future of Diplomacy” symposium today at @georgetownsfs. What a pleasure to hear from all of you. More to come! pic.twitter.com/h7D9Ag8npw

The President who could have been…. my heart just breaks. The contrast with the ignoramus who currently occupies the White House is so very depressing. It’s hard to be hopeful. How in the heck could people see her as the greater of two evils??? Or not come out to vote?? And the media was complicit in all of it and show no signs of remorse or ever learning from their own mistakes. You know, I was watching “Family Feud” on television about a week ago and one of the questions was “Name a famous woman who has been inspirational (or something to that effect). Do you know not one person on either side named Hillary Clinton? I couldn’t believe it. They said Michelle Obama, Oprah, and Ellen (who were all on the list). Then they guessed Beyonce ad Mother Theresa (who did not make the list). And guess what – of course Hillary Clinton was on the list.One of the guests said “I was going to say her”. I hate to say it but I think this country is stupid. It’s all so sad to me. And I doubt whether we’re going to learn next time.

Most of the current crop of candidates seem intent on appeasing Bernie’s base even though he lost the nomination to Hillary by almost 4 million votes. And the mythology that he is the gold standard of progressivism continues as well. I need to hear candidates acknowledge the injustice that was done, not just to her, but to her voters too. Business as usual won’t work with me. I need to hear candidates acknowledge the existential threat this country faces. As Hillary said in 2016, democracy itself is on the ballot.

She rightly predicted what was going to happen. She knew.

She is. And nobody sticks up for her. The party acts like its ashamed of her rather than proud of her. She’s head and shoulders above the current crop of candidates in terms of gravitas and experience. It’s just puzzling to me.
