Third in line for the throne, after the Queen - I think.
Yes, our sickening plutocracy.
I think they look at taking over our government as a dirty job, but something that must be done and it's mandated by their leader billionaires.
I remember way back - probably in the 70s - when Heritage came about. We didn't pay them much mind and they operated mostly in secret. However, as with most organizations, leaks started coming out that revealed they were feeding news organizations with talking points AND to the White House and Congress - in other words, minders of our government even back then. But , we never heard Heritage's or AEI's - or Rupert Murdoch's - names mentioned.
I've always viewed the wealthy as existing in a universe apart from us, and it's global in nature. I don't thing many of them are really very nationalistic at heart since their well-being is tied more to a web of global financial and social interests, however they'll all toot a patriotic horn if it fits their business interests.
Who signs off on this bullshit?
Anyone know exactly who signs off on cabinet member's use of military aircraft? I understand this practice is not new, but when there's abuse, malfeasance, and/or conspiracy of action in the house, some upper echelon heads should roll. 
LOL, you hit it dead-on.
They keep their choir well fed, housed and clothed.
Residencies also available in thousands of corporate boardrooms. Golden parachutes abound! 
I'll bet tRump eventually excuses this behavior.....
by framing it like so:
"in order to get the brightest and best for our nation, we have to allow them many perks they were formerly accustomed to".
This bunch of elitist jerks with their golden spoon attitudes and a myriad of conflict of interest have no place in public service. Period.
Thanks, BainsBane!
I also did a search and found several twitter pages of Hil fans and former staff with some very touching photos, including the one you posted. She has a powerful support base that's staying strong!
We're hoping that she and Bill, along with Barack and Michelle and Jimmy and Rosalynn can continue to inspire us - and help find our most effective ways to counterweight this GOP insurgency. Her book is a good start! I hope to get a copy soon and share it with family and friends.
Some many things to work on, and so little time. That's why those little kids symbolize our hope.
One simple, cast in stone goal.
Destroy. Our. Government.
"shrink it down to the size where we can drown it in the bathtub" - Grover Norquist, 2004
They signed the pledge, remember?
I swear, I think he's more out of touch than W.
At least W faked a give-a-shit every so often. 
HRC looks healthy and happy - little girl gives her hope, too!
What a beautiful, inspirational photo. No clutching of pearls there!
I think the little one was checking out Hil's necklace. Did she upstage our hero, LOL?
Thanks for posting!
