Hillary Clinton: "We are in uncharted territory"

Last edited Fri Feb 18, 2022, 11:21 AM - Edit history (2)

Hillary Clinton slams the Republican Party for officially embracing "violent insurrection as legitimate political discourse."

“Make no mistake, our adversaries around the world are watching," she says. "Republicans are defending coup-plotters.”

Hillary Clinton is very well-spoken and would not use the incorrect adjective in such a case.

And, she didn't.

15. uncharted vs unchartered
Fri Feb 18, 2022, 11:02 AM
Feb 2022

Although uncharted territory refers to unmapped land, unchartered property is an unregulated or lawless area, so be warned before you venture out there! ... Uncharted is the way to go when exploring an unfamiliar area or subject .....

When it comes to lack of laws or regulations, think unchartered.

"Unchartered" is a very rarely used adjective and is wrong in that context, when used with "territory."

Hillary Clinton used the word "uncharted" very clearly. She knows the word and how it is used with "territory."

The OP misquoted her.

Hillary Clinton was born with Mercury, the planet of the mind and intellect, sitting right on her Scorpio Ascendant. Furthermore, on the very day she was born, that Mercury, which is right on her Ascendant, one of the most powerful, if not the most powerful, point in the natal astrology chart, also at a station, transiting from retrograde to direct motion - and being at a station also turns the power and volume of a planet's influence way, way up. So, her natal astrology chart says in no uncertain terms that Hillary is a genius, a super brain. And Mercury in Scorpio is the mind of a detective, a relentless researcher, and a formidable lawyer who you would not want to be against in a court of law, with arguments that cut right to the bone. Hillary has a lot of planetary energy in Scorpio in her chart - not only her Ascendant and Mercury, but her Sun, and maybe Venus as well. With all that Scorpio energy, she can come across as too intense, and push people's buttons without even trying to - and that definitely played out in the smear campaign of the 2016 election.

A large segment of the Republicans are dangerously nuts. The floodgates for those crazies were opened by Trump, who is dumb as can be with Nazi tendencies which was music to the ears to his Far Right base.
