Guilty as Sin: Uncovering New Evidence of Corruption and How Hillary Clinton and the Democrats Derailed the FBI Investigation
When FBI Director James Comey announced in July that Hillary Clinton would not be indicted for mishandling classified information, America was stunned.
Had the scandal-happy Clintons escaped justice once again? Not so fast, says investigative reporter and gossip columnist Ed Klein. There is far more behind Comey's shocking press conference than meets the eye -- and a minefield of email evidence between Hillary and the White House.
In his latest book about Hillary Clinton, Klein uncovers the real story behind Hillary's email scandals and the dirty political games that have kept her one step ahead of the law - for now. Klein allegedly reveals what the FBI's team of 150+ investigators really found on Clinton's server. How Comey originally threatened to resign over White House attempts to intervene in the investigation, and his secret plan to go around the Justice Department if needed. How an unprecedented Congressional investigation during an election year is uncovering new shocking evidence of corruption on a level some would call treason. And what Bill and Hillary still have left in their bag of tricks in their desperate quest to get back into the Oval Office.

Reading this book was like watching a marathon of Jerry Springer episodes. I honestly feel dirty.
Sensational and outrageous are two words that come to mind.
Make no mistake, this is a book with a clear political agenda, written by the Right for the Right.
I had really hoped for so much more, like a serious and thorough look into the FBI investigation and its recommendation not to press charges. Instead what I got was a Clinton conspiracy theory.
Within the first fifteen pages of the book, Klein, who has written several books on the Clintons portraying them as the ultimate evil doers, suggests Hilary is an ugly, foul-mouthed, hot-headed, feminist who stays with her philandering playboy husband simply to advance her political ambitions. He even suggests that she is a lesbian engaged in a sexless lesbian affair with top aide Huma Abedin, his assertion based on the fact they seem to enjoy each others company and make each other laugh. It's absurd and actually offensive to anyone with a modicum of common sense.
But most importantly, according to Klein, Hillary is a liar and has been from the moment she appeared with her husband on the political scene, who once had the audacity and indecency to clerk for a law firm with Communist Party connections and who had represented the Black Panthers.
A combination of personal commentary woven into scenes that supposedly recreate private interactions that took place between various parties, including Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton, Obama and top adviser Valerie Jarrett the narrative is often disjointed, contradictory, and generally unrealistic. The artistic license that Klein takes is appalling. Scene after scene, accusation after accusation. Yet not one footnote. Not one credible corroborating source. All hearsay...said a source who is a friend of a friend of a friend. Seriously?????
Klein's portrayal of the characters involved is nothing short of bizarre. Bill Clinton the aging, absent-minded husband who simply wants to live out his final years in peace and quiet with the occasional naked pool party at his bachelor pad, and ruthless Chelsea, a mini Hillary in the making who is hated by all. And if crooked Hillary's lesbianism, foul-mouth tantrums, and bullying of her husband's lovers aren't enough to convince you she isn't fit for office, we should all know that Clinton is covering several serious health conditions like hypothyroidism.
Oh and then there is the portrayal of Obama...a petty, vindictive, elitist who secretly hates Hillary and only endorses her after his attempts to convince Joe Biden and Elizabeth Warren to run fail. That, and of course, Hillary's promise to find him a seat on the Supreme Court. Quote...The idea of looking cool in a black robe and becoming a justice of the Supreme Court intrigued Obama, said a White House source close to Jarrett...end of quote.
Who in the hell believes this crap???? Surely the same people who still believe Obama is a Muslim terrorist.
There's more, but I think you get the picture.
Now let's deal with the facts as given by Jame Comey himself:
1. Clinton used a personal email account to send and receive work-related emails, some which were classified at various levels.
2. As per James Comey, Clinton and her aides showed gross negligence in their handling of classified information.
3. However, intent of wrong doing could not be established despite a year long intensive non-partisan investigation.
4. That being the case his recommendation to the Justice Department, which remained free to act on its own, was that no charges should be brought against Clinton.
Not only are these facts not clearly relayed in a book that is supposed to be an investigation into the 33,000 emails, but instead we are presented with a bunch of inflammatory, nonsensical accusations lobbied against everyone from the Clintons, to the Obamas, to Elizabeth Warren and anyone associated with them. The only Democrat in this whole book who seems to be treated with some level of decency is Joe Biden, the man who let down the President by deciding not to run for President, even though his son on his dying bed begged him to run rather than see the crooked Clintons return to the White House.
What a piece of poppycock. It's bad enough that ignorance abounds in the American electorate. But to put out this rubbish and present it as fact does more to harm this country than the Clintons could every hope to.
Of course, the epilogue says it all. According to the author, America is in serious trouble. Gay marriage is legal...many Americans support the legalization of marijuana, police-not criminals-are the problem, the number of adults who identify as Christians is dropping while the number of Americans who identify as atheist, agnostic, or other is growing. Even worse, in less than thirty years non-Hipsanic whites will no longer make up a majority of Americans (oh my...say it ain't so, Gertrude...say it ain't so.) More than half the births to women under 30 are outside of the sacred institution of marriage that is no longer sacred thanks to the f-ing liberals and the average American woman now weighs the same as the average man of the 1960s, tatoos are no longer limited to manly and gruff sailors, men no longer wear ties to baseball games, and people are just plain rude.
And Klein's answer to this tragedy that has become the fall of American culture...Donald Trump....a man who has admitted to having three ways (after all...he told Stern...we're not babies here...who hasn't), who has bragged about his infidelities and attempts to seduce married women, who has bantered casually about sexually assaulting women because when you are famous you can do whatever you want, brags about not paying taxes claiming it makes him smart. Are you kidding me???? Then again, Trump does seem upset about the fact that women may be getting fatter and as far as I know, he doesn't have any tatoos.
So sad, since I really wanted to read an honest and unbiased critique of the investigation and its conclusions.
This is the second of six books I plan to read before voting this November. Next up is The Making of Donald Trump.

October 18, 2016Hillary should be in jail and we all know it!
December 10, 2016
Edward Klein probably hates the word “discredited” as much as Donald Trump hates the word “unqualified”. When a rather noticeable number of reputable journalists (and even some disreputable ones) calls your work “discredited”, you may need to take pause and reconsider your life’s work.
Or, you can simply do what Trump does and claim to be the victim of a rigged system. This is exactly what Klein does, claiming that he is the victim of a vicious smear campaign by the “Clinton Slime Machine” (a term coined by New York Times columnist Maureen Dowd), which describes the ugly, back-alley deal-making and electioneering tactics used by Clinton advisors to help get Hillary elected in 2016. You can see how well that worked.
I have no doubt in my mind that a Clinton Slime Machine exists. I’m not even sure that I doubt what Klein has to say in his book “Guilty as Sin”, which is the latest in a long string of vitriolic Hillary-hating books.
Klein’s problems (and there are many) stem from a clearly irrational hatred of the Clintons, one that I’m sure he would deny, in much the same way that a Klansman, when being interviewed during a lynching, would deny hating black people. One basically has to take it with a grain of salt.
My main gripe with Klein’s journalism is his lack of any references or footnote sources. Nothing that he writes about in his book is backed up in any way, although he repeatedly talks about “unnamed sources” that he interviewed numerous times for this book.
Unnamed sources are pretty much a staple of political journalism, but they can’t or shouldn’t be your only source. A good journalist uses information given to them by unnamed sources as a starting point, not an ending point.
Unfortunately, much of the information given to Klein is completely unverifiable. It’s all hearsay, and much of it lacks a proper context or any context at all.
Some of it is just plain laughable and reads more like a transcript of an SNL skit than real life. In one “scene”, Hillary gives her long-time aide and confidante Huma Abedin a long, awkward backrub, replete with moans of ecstasy and a hint of lesbianism. The unnamed source continues to describe a scene in which Hillary, drinking glass after glass of Chardonnay, is bad-mouthing her critics and dropping the f-bomb every other word. When asked where Bill was, Hillary answers, “Probably out screwing another intern”.
Seriously, Klein?
Of course, none of this is surprising from the guy who once claimed in one of his books that Chelsea Clinton was the product of spousal rape by Bill. He later backtracked on that one. He has also said that Hillary is a lesbian (Ms. Abedin being her most significant paramour) numerous times. Again, without any supporting evidence whatsoever.
Is it any wonder why so many people consider Klein to be full of shit?
My biggest problem with Klein is my problem with conspiracy theorists in general: none of it can be proven. It’s a lot of unverifiable “facts” strung together to fit a particular narrative, while leaving out plenty of actual facts that dispute the theory.
Conspiracy theories may be true, but if one doesn’t have any evidence other than circumstantial to back it up, then it’s just a theory.
Unfortunately, we live in a post-fact world, and fact-deficient “journalists” (I have to use quotes because I can’t, in good conscience, call Klein a journalist) like Klein are the new breed, spouting so much bullshit in so many directions, it’s impossible for fact-checkers to keep up.
“There’s no such thing, unfortunately, anymore as facts,” said Scottie Nell Hughes, political editor of RightAlerts.com, speaking on NPR in early December 2016 on behalf of Trump. (http://www.politicususa.com/2016/12/0...) In her world, and the world of Trump’s twitter feed, she is, unfortunately, right. Even if she is wrong.
The line between fact and opinion, for many on the Right, have become so blurred as to be nonexistent. This has been a boon for them. It’s what got Trump elected.
“Guilty as Sin” is garbage, but it’s not completely unreadable garbage. Somewhere within the many pages of ridiculous conspiracy theories may be a shred of truth. The book is certainly not without some entertainment value. Unfortunately, Klein has succumbed so completely to the syndrome afflicting many on the Right that makes it impossible for him to distinguish between fact and opinion that it’s impossible to know what is truth and what is fiction.

This book filled in the blanks for me. I've thought a lot about this election while others I know don't give a rip. WHY isn't Hillary in prison? I've seen the CLINTON corruption my entire life and Hillary always gets away with it.
I couldn't put this book down and don't doubt that every word is true. Ed Klein did his homework. I wish everyone would read this before election day and see for themselves what's really at stake if Hillary is elected. The AMERICA that was fought for and many died for, with all her liberties, will disappear and all those lives wasted. Every life sacrificed was not so the Obamas and Clinton's could destroy it. Please America VOTE TRUMP PENCE ON NOV. 8 AND SAVE AMERICA.

Fast paced and fact based
I read this book in less than a day. I'm so concerned about our country's future. This author has given us a history of both Hillary and Obama's self-serving use of American politics. I wish everyone would read this and similar books. Until we become educated about those who want to hold the most important office in the world, we will be doomed to continue placing people who are unqualified for the office.

An excellent book detailing the moods, behaviors and mannerism of Hillary Clinton and her desperate efforts to lie her way through life. Klein has a unique gift in that he has sources that are very close to the Clinton's, giving credibility to the book and writing. The book is compelling and paints a portrait of someone who should not be trusted to serve in public office. Much of what is written takes the reader up to the 2016 election and addresses many of the things averages Americans have wanted to know regarding Hillary, such as her health; and that the Liberal media were only too willing to hide from the American people. Definitely recommended.
November 8, 2016
The previous book I reviewed was Hillary Clinton's It Takes a Village.
The last Edward Klein book I finished on Hillary was The Truth about Hillary back in 2007. Klein has now made a career cranking these books out. This one particularly focuses on why Comey and the FBI did not indict Hillary earlier in 2016. Klein always cites unnamed sources who are "close to Clinton" or "close to Valerie Jarrett" and who he interviewed "25 times" or "12 times" or whatever. In some cases, he gives clues about "friends of Hillary" that could only be boiled down to a handful of people. These well-meaning people are concerned enough about our country to leak quietly and anonymously to Edward Klein, apparently. There is enough hyperbole and insinuation that you have no idea what probability of truth to assign to any of Klein's statements. Anything he does not directly attribute to "a source" I consider to be completely false. For example, Klein's claim that President Obama doesn't really want to be on the Supreme Court because he enjoys being the rockstar in crowds with "swooning women" more than being an academic. Often, Klein's source is Klein's other books. Klein's stories of what happens behind closed doors are also too detailed to be true. He didn't see the arched eyebrow or slumped shoulders, but they're clear in his mind.
The author writes that President Obama initially supported the FBI investigation because he hates the Clintons and hoped his friend Joe Biden would get into the race instead. Valerie Jarrett has been the source of leaks about Hillary over the years, because she also despises her. Oddly, Klein has always maintained that Obama loves Joe Biden while Daniel Halper (Clinton, Inc.) claims the exact opposite. When Biden declined to run and no one viable challenged Hillary, Obama changed his tune but cannot legally sack James Comey. After AG Lynch began pressuring Comey to not indict, including after the uncomfortable visit by Bill Clinton on her airplane, Comey got his revenge with his press conference laying out all the laws Hillary did indeed violate before concluding he would not pursue indictment. Lynch angrily watched his conference on TV, thinking he was going to indict before he announced he wouldn't. Klein cites "sources close to Comey" that Comey believes he is the cowboy detective and Hillary Clinton is his John Dillinger. (Klein would probably say Comey's press release a week before the election was also revenge.)
Like many of the conspiracy theorists that write on the Clintons, Klein engages in various armchair psychiatry. Huma Abedin and Hillary may not be sexually involved, but they have a co-dependent relationship. Huma needs a figure like Hillary, and Hillary needs someone who knows how to keep her calm. Otherwise, Hillary sometimes engages in fits where she pulls out her hair, or throws a champagne glass or flower vase across the room. Hillary does much drinking, cursing, and throwing in these pages.
Besides the factual breaches of the law that Comey decided not to indict on, Klein cites other sources. A Foreign Service officer testified to the FBI that Hillary would mix Clinton Foundation business and State Department business on official trips, she maintained binders with labels for both organizations on airplanes. The hacker Guccifer alleges that when he was hacking Hillary's server, he saw IPs of others outside the US as well, and the Clinton organization shut down the server for a time because they knew it had been hacked-- contrary to what they'd stated. Klein opines that Clinton will likely be blackmailed or exploited as President because of what the hackers got.
Perhaps Klein's only good point comes in regards to Hillary's medical history. When the Clinton campaign team produced a doctor's claim that Hillary swims, does yoga, and other exercise and does not drink much alcohol, Klein asks where the evidence is. Why do we not have any reports of Hillary's exercise regime or even hear from someone who has been to yoga or the pool with her? Instead, we see stories in the New York Times and other publications (where Hillary has been endorsed) that Hillary asks a general for a beer, but never that she got her workout in. Klein cites a "friend of Hillary's" that she has frequent feinting spells, probably due to her proclivity to blood clots. None of that really bothers me. You get a dietician at the White House and the Secret Service basically forces some exercise (although Klein writes that the SS hates Hillary). We've had Presidents with polio, drug problems, and a debilitating stroke and survived as a nation. She's 70, and a cross-country 24/7 campaign is a lot different than governing.
Bill Clinton, meanwhile, gets foot massages from interns working at his Presidential library. The penthouse suite in the library serves as his "love nest" that Hillary does not sleep in when she comes to town. Bill sometimes calls the shots via telephone, although his aides worry that he is becoming somewhat senile and weak in his old age, and more of a liability. Obama was willing to campaign for Hillary simply because he hates Trump more than Bill, writes Klein.
What about Trump, who Klein urges the reader to vote for? Klein hangs out on Trump's jet and paints a picture of a man no more likable than any Democrat in the book. Trump is arguing with a television and constantly having conversations with everyone who comes on TV. He is going through newspapers and doling out criticisms and kudos. If Hillary is paranoid, so is Trump. Klein gives a brief recap of 2016 and all of Trump's offenses. Trump does not come across as any better than Klein's Hillary.
Yet, Klein devotes the end of the book to a very long rant about why the reader should only vote for Trump. He writes that a vote for Hillary is a vote for more tattooed people, lower church attendance, a drug epidemic, and a "rising body count" from Islamic terrorism on our streets, among other problems. Only Trump can "make America great again." I find it odd, then, that I see a lot of proudly tattooed people at Trump rallies on TV and I imagine there are a lot of oxycontin and heroin addicts around America voting for Trump as well as Hillary. Klein's own reasoning is inadequate to grasp that America's character and morality are not determined by who lives in the White House.
I give this book about 1.5 stars. It is entertaining (except the rant at the end), but I would be surprised if more than 20 percent is true. We'll never know. As it is, I recommend Hillary's books instead as they're far more interesting.

Often, Klein's source is Klein's other books. Klein's stories of what happens behind closed doors are also too detailed to be true. He didn't see the arched eyebrow or slumped shoulders, but they're clear in his mind.
The author writes that President Obama initially supported the FBI investigation because he hates the Clintons and hoped his friend Joe Biden would get into the race instead. Valerie Jarrett has been the source of leaks about Hillary over the years, because she also despises her. Oddly, Klein has always maintained that Obama loves Joe Biden while Daniel Halper (Clinton, Inc.) claims the exact opposite. When Biden declined to run and no one viable challenged Hillary, Obama changed his tune but cannot legally sack James Comey. After AG Lynch began pressuring Comey to not indict, including after the uncomfortable visit by Bill Clinton on her airplane, Comey got his revenge with his press conference laying out all the laws Hillary did indeed violate before concluding he would not pursue indictment. Lynch angrily watched his conference on TV, thinking he was going to indict before he announced he wouldn't. Klein cites "sources close to Comey" that Comey believes he is the cowboy detective and Hillary Clinton is his John Dillinger. (Klein would probably say Comey's press release a week before the election was also revenge.)
Like many of the conspiracy theorists that write on the Clintons, Klein engages in various armchair psychiatry. Huma Abedin and Hillary may not be sexually involved, but they have a co-dependent relationship. Huma needs a figure like Hillary, and Hillary needs someone who knows how to keep her calm. Otherwise, Hillary sometimes engages in fits where she pulls out her hair, or throws a champagne glass or flower vase across the room. Hillary does much drinking, cursing, and throwing in these pages.
Besides the factual breaches of the law that Comey decided not to indict on, Klein cites other sources. A Foreign Service officer testified to the FBI that Hillary would mix Clinton Foundation business and State Department business on official trips, she maintained binders with labels for both organizations on airplanes. The hacker Guccifer alleges that when he was hacking Hillary's server, he saw IPs of others outside the US as well, and the Clinton organization shut down the server for a time because they knew it had been hacked-- contrary to what they'd stated. Klein opines that Clinton will likely be blackmailed or exploited as President because of what the hackers got.
Perhaps Klein's only good point comes in regards to Hillary's medical history. When the Clinton campaign team produced a doctor's claim that Hillary swims, does yoga, and other exercise and does not drink much alcohol, Klein asks where the evidence is. Why do we not have any reports of Hillary's exercise regime or even hear from someone who has been to yoga or the pool with her? Instead, we see stories in the New York Times and other publications (where Hillary has been endorsed) that Hillary asks a general for a beer, but never that she got her workout in. Klein cites a "friend of Hillary's" that she has frequent feinting spells, probably due to her proclivity to blood clots. None of that really bothers me. You get a dietician at the White House and the Secret Service basically forces some exercise (although Klein writes that the SS hates Hillary). We've had Presidents with polio, drug problems, and a debilitating stroke and survived as a nation. She's 70, and a cross-country 24/7 campaign is a lot different than governing.
Bill Clinton, meanwhile, gets foot massages from interns working at his Presidential library. The penthouse suite in the library serves as his "love nest" that Hillary does not sleep in when she comes to town. Bill sometimes calls the shots via telephone, although his aides worry that he is becoming somewhat senile and weak in his old age, and more of a liability. Obama was willing to campaign for Hillary simply because he hates Trump more than Bill, writes Klein.
What about Trump, who Klein urges the reader to vote for? Klein hangs out on Trump's jet and paints a picture of a man no more likable than any Democrat in the book. Trump is arguing with a television and constantly having conversations with everyone who comes on TV. He is going through newspapers and doling out criticisms and kudos. If Hillary is paranoid, so is Trump. Klein gives a brief recap of 2016 and all of Trump's offenses. Trump does not come across as any better than Klein's Hillary.
Yet, Klein devotes the end of the book to a very long rant about why the reader should only vote for Trump. He writes that a vote for Hillary is a vote for more tattooed people, lower church attendance, a drug epidemic, and a "rising body count" from Islamic terrorism on our streets, among other problems. Only Trump can "make America great again." I find it odd, then, that I see a lot of proudly tattooed people at Trump rallies on TV and I imagine there are a lot of oxycontin and heroin addicts around America voting for Trump as well as Hillary. Klein's own reasoning is inadequate to grasp that America's character and morality are not determined by who lives in the White House.
I give this book about 1.5 stars. It is entertaining (except the rant at the end), but I would be surprised if more than 20 percent is true. We'll never know. As it is, I recommend Hillary's books instead as they're far more interesting.

Shocking expose of the Clinton Criminal Family. Along with being criminals,they are corrupt,immoral,violent,evil etc etc...this is an amazing book with everything we hear here and there into one book and its amazing and disturbing to read. I am shocked to learn Comey DESPISED Clinton but refused to say she was criminal.I was hoping it would have gone into that more but it didn't as to why he didn't do so.It shows how Obama and company tried to first find an alternative to be the democrat nominee for president and when that failed he tried to stop the investigation.

Clearly, I'm a Trump supporter or I would never have purchased this book for nearly $30 and read it in less than a day. I believe that it is a necessary read for anyone who believes that votes should be backed by research outside of msm.
I appreciated the author's hard work and research to deliver the facts that today's journalists refuse to provide the public.
However, my stomach turned at the end of the book when Klein went from providing facts to inserting opinions. First, I'm a Christian. Many Christians my age can't stand the supposed faith of our grandparents generation for several reasons. Our grandparents' generation went to church for the social opportunities that it offered. They worked hard to maintain appearances while committing sins behind closed doors. They were a generation dominated by white males that were disgustingly racist and disturbingly sexist. They're hard core religious values were fueled by hate and their devotion to their morality was beyond hypocritical. They are 100% responsible for raising a generation that has introduced free love, experimental drug use, broken families, the fall of Christianity, the corruption and decline of our government and they want to point fingers at the younger generations? Anyone who knows the Bible knows that children WILL suffer the sins of the parents and believe me, our suffering hasn't even started. I don't believe any older generation has any right to judge the direction of the young leaders and youth of this country. Congrats to you! You failed epically at parenting and as a result, the baby boomers have failed epically as leaders of this country. Provide facts and keep your opinions to yourself.

Guilty As Sin: Uncovering New Evidence of Corruption and How Hillary Clinton and the Democrats Derailed the FBI Investigation is by Edward Klein. If you are in favor of anyone else becoming President in November or are just against Hillary Clinton, this is a book for you to read. It gives a very biased view of what has been going on in the political life of Hillary Clinton in the years she has been in office first as a First Lady: second as Senator; and third as the Democratic nominee for President of the United States. If arrogance and distain of our political system and fellow Americans are qualifications for the Presidency; Hillary Clinton is definitely qualified. Edward Klein does document all of the lies and cover ups Hillary has participated in. I can’t say this was a good book; but it was interesting and well worth reading.

"Guilty as Sin: Uncovering New Evidence of Corruption and How Hillary Clinton and the Democrats Derailed the FBI Investigation"
Devestating book about the many, many crimes of Hillary Rodham Clinton, Obama and Bill Clinton. Her biggest crimes include her unauthorized, unsecure server that was hacked by the Russians, and probably the Chinese. These actions resulted in EPIONAGE and TREASON against my country. The crimes committed by the Clinton Foundation are still being exposed and more will be learned.

Crooked Hillary is even worse than you think
To be honest here, I cringe whenever I see her phony expressions and hear that shrill cackle of a voice. Just by watching and listening to her scripted antics you can tell she is a BAD human being. This visits the stories and time lines of some real heinous behavior. We need to get rid of the Clintons, clean up the corruption and Make America Great Again!

October 15, 2016***** Stars -- Must Reading For Those Who Care About The Future Direction Of This Country!
Edward Klein's latest book is must reading for anyone who hasn't already been totally brainwashed by the Clinton/Obama propaganda machine, fueled heavily by the uber-liberal mass media.
I won't provide the details of what Klein covers in Guilty As Sin. Rather, I'll just borrow from the Amazon book description and say that readers will be provided with important information about:
... What the FBI's team of 150+ investigators really found on Clinton's server.
...How Comey originally threatened to resign over White House attempts to intervene in the investigation, and his secret plan to go around the Justice Department if needed.
...How an unprecedented Congressional investigation during an election year is uncovering new shocking evidence of corruption on a level some would call treason. And,
...What Bill and Hillary still have left in their bag of tricks in their desperate quest to get back into the Oval Office (much of which is driven by their predictable yet effective, paint-by-numbers strategy of their political operation – i.e.: 1. DENY; 2. DEFLECT; and 3. DEMEAN).
Having finished this very insightful book, it has become even more clear to me than ever before that, despite many people's personal dislike for the two presidential candidates, the choice about for whom to vote should be determined based on your answer to the following -- Do you want to vote for someone who is fresh, bold, and untested, who says what he believe even if you don't always like what he says and the way he says it, who promises to clean up the stables of Washington, D,C. and to revive American exceptionalism...OR do you want to vote for someone who has been under investigation for illegal or dishonest behavior during her entire public life, who promises four (and possible eight) more years of Obamaism and the dangerous direction our country has been headed, and whose sole rationale for running for president is that she isn't someone else (i.e. Donald Trump)?
For me, the choice is an easy one. However, should Trump lose, which is becoming increasingly likely (thanks, in large part to her propaganda machine, the uber-liberal mass media), I'll offer my condolences for the loss of the great country this used to be.

The book takes us through a story. A story of lies, corruption, and deceit. A story with familiar characters and recognizable locations. A story of such indecency, and hubris that it would seem too unsubtle if it were written as fiction. Unfortunately for us this story is not from some writers imagination but the reality of the culture and relationship of America's most famous and powerful political family. While closed room chatter can obviously no way be confirmed the conclusions drawn are inescapable for any rational, fair minded person.

A very interesting look at some current issues and personalities. An easy, fast read.
November 5, 2016
When I flipped the last page in this book, I turned to my husband and said, "Wow, that was a horrible book." What I meant to say was, what a horrible, mean-spirited, unresearched, unsubstantiated, thoroughly reprehensible diatribe masked as a book that was. I cannot believe the author, whom I have never before read and never will again, got away with the thinly veiled lies and half-truths written and attributed to "sources who spoke to this author 18 times." Just because someone says something 18 times does not make it the truth. What about fair and balanced reporting? What about getting sources from the other side? I actually picked up this book to learn more about a candidate and to try to understand more about some of the complexities about this election that is dividing our country. I thought that someone who has published as many books as Klein must have done his due diligence and at least tried to balance his reporting. NOPE. This was a horrible character attack and actually made me more sympathetic toward the Clintons and must more understanding of the brainwashing of the Trump side. Do not waste your money or your time on ANYTHING Klein has to write. It is pure fiction. He has an agenda and makes up the facts to support it.

Best book I've read all year. I started to read after the election. A quick read. Edward Klein has written a number of books about Hillary Clinton. His sources are first and second hand of situations. As stated in the book, most interviewed do so anonymously otherwise no discussion. One could say some of the book is a he/she said recollection of events. Even if seventy five percent is accurate, it is revealing. Klein gets to the Obama, Valerie Garrett, Comey or Hillary said this or displayed that emotion. If you're looking for a sourced book rather than a National Enquirer like book written by a six decade experienced journalist, then skip this one. I don't want to be a spoiler, so I'll end by saying Recommended.

So much corruption, so little time. This is the book to read if you want to feel filthy. Anonymous sources seem to be willing to say anything, and this book is full of them.
This is a quick read, but shouldn't be your only read. It raises questions and issues, time will tell where the truth lies.
I still don't have a good answer for my main question, why did Hillary Clinton even try to run for President?. There were several qualified candidates, not just Bernie Sanders. Many perfectly qualified candidates could have won if they had been the Democratic nominee, but no. Was the whole mess really worth it? Over a billion dollars for the Hillary Clinton Presidential campaign and she still lost in main part because she is apparently mentally defective.

This is a must read for anyone considering a vote for Hillary Clinton. Read how the Obama's and Clinton's really feel about each other--hatred. The FBI investigation into her emails was repeatedly blocked by the administration and illustrates the corruption in our government. The author is a well-known investigative reporter and you can tell that extensive research went into this book with interviews of insiders who have no agenda except to see the truth come out. With her election there is no guarantee that the corruption will cease. In fact in will probably get worse if history is any indication.

Be prepared: Regardless of what you think of the Obamas, the Clintons or anyone in their political wake, Klein's book is a page turner. Although Klein sometimes is borderline rabid in his denunciations of the respective players, most of the material in the book is not a spectacular one-off revelation but rather a compilation of events and statements, many of them publicly documented, that together present a startling and sometimes shocking picture of the machinations behind both the Obama administration and the Clintons' determination to undermine it. Highly recommended.
October 24, 2016
A must read for all voters. This explains the behind the scenes corruption that occurred with the investigation of Hillary's emails and her blatant recklessness of putting our national security in jeopardy. It's interesting how many people - politicians, federal employees, etc are in each other's pockets. Especially the Clintons!! You wonder if the corruption will ever end. Very disturbing!!

Entertaining junk read. Poorly sourced references. Some episodes believable; others, who knows? I decided to read at least one of these books just to judge for myself. Grocery store tabloid quality overall.
May 21, 2023
If you like lies & propaganda promoted by Fox News you can believe this, but it is factually incorrect. In fact the opposite is true, it's pretty hard to even have an investigation on something that was never in the first place. Hillary was given advice by both Colon Powell & Condi Rice to get her own server working for the state department because their virus protection software was outdated. Notice that "cozy bear" & Russian hackers got into the DNC, but they didn't get into Hillary's Secretary of State server, now did they? Nope. If it is such a crime to do this, than where is the outcry for Powell, & Rice's use of servers & emails? This is sexist & shows you that their are always separate rules when it comes to Dems. I never hear any outrage over W Bush/Cheney erased 22Million emails, & "lost" $3Trillion. If you judge, complain or disparage Hillary over this & not Powell, Rice, Bush & Cheney...than you might be a hypocrite.

Because I read for pleasure I do not read much non-fiction but I thoroughly enjoyed "Guilty as Sin".
Mr. Klein has sifted through the history, the players and the facts and lays them out in a very clear way for the reader. Anyone who has any doubt about needing to clean up the corruption in Washington, and whether most of our journalists have become mouth pieces for the power players in a broken system, should read this book. It also shows that fear, more than corruption, of the "powers that be" has started to affect our top law enforcement organizations. I have already ordered another one of his books and passed this one on to a friend. Well done Mr. Klein!
P.S. I would love to see a book from Edward Klein about how Hillary and her corrupt machine stole the nomination that might have gone to Bernie Sanders.

Eye-opening insight into the Bill and Hillary Clinton nightmare. Corrupt, greedy and disastrous politicians; both Bills and Hills. Even if you are a Hillary supporter it might be good to take a look at this book to see her and Bill’s (very likely) true colors. Many of the sources are anonymous but many great and true reports and headlines come from anonymous sources. It’s hard to discredit this author’s book based on what I’ve read and seen in the media on the Clintons. Corrupt is putting it lightly. As for most (if not All) politicians they are ultimately focused on their own wealth and power, not the poor or middle-class that they claim they support. Hills socialistic politics is (and would) be a disaster to the United Stares. Great book from a highly experienced and relevant author!

Author does not give proof of what he says. He recreates conversations that are merely hearsay. It's hard to trust this book. I agree with most everything the author says, but he loses credibility by not naming sources. He explains why in the last chapter on sources. Unfortunately much bad language, not from author, but usually through the filthy mouths of Hillary, Bill and Obama. Thank you, Lord, for saving America from Hillary! Now please make her, Bill, Obama, Michelle, and their daughters go away and leave us alone. Author is apparently a Christian. He quotes Scripture near end of book and talks about the need for America to turn back to God and our founding principles.
June 13, 2018
A good book. Not very comprehensive as I thought. The author claims testimonies/interviews but if what he says is true...I’m sooo happy she isn’t President. There are a lot of scandals surrounding her. I mean a lot!!. So how can they all be untrue? I have seen/watched/read/heard of all these scandals, especially the emails...she should be incarcerated indefinitely. I’m thinking that karma stuck it to her really bad bc of the terrible things she has done in the name of power, vanity, fame....etc. With all the documentaries, books, news coming out on her criminal activities she is never going to be in politics again.
June 23, 2017
Here is yet another book that lays out the case against Hillary. It's a quick read, and damning. I know Klein's reputation is a little questionable in some circles, but he lays it all out. One might question an assertion here or there, but the body of evidence is considerable. As to the criticism that the identity of many of Klein's sources is protected... if you're going to discount this narrative because of that, you'd better be discounting all the anonymously-sourced anti-Trump stories in the Washington Post, New York Times, and elsewhere.
June 20, 2018
I can't say this book necessarily changed my opinion of Secretary Clinton and the e-mail scandal, but it did bring some aspects of her life into question (such as her character and anger issues) that I had heard about but hadn't taken the time to read. Sources are all anonymous, which is understandable but always leaves me wondering if everything said is absolute truth given time does have a way of distorting one's ability to recall a specific event. Either way, for those who already don't like Clinton, this is another account of why you are likely glad she is not president.
