The day of the Nevada caucuses found Podesta was at his brother’s house in Washington, overseeing a fundraiser for wealthy supporters. Podesta—a gourmet chef who often jokes he’d be fat if it weren’t for all the running—cooked for 200, part of a series of fundraisers where he and a celebrity chef cooked for donors. This time, he was whipping up Sunday brunch with Carla Hall, co-host of ABC’s The Chew. The message of the painting in his Brooklyn office was not far from his mind. “I’m behind the counter,” he half joked to the crowd, according to two people present, “because I don’t want to be the meal.”

Perhaps not so funny now the counter has gone - eh Skippy. Sometimes half-jokes can reveal half-truths. Here is the painting on the wall of his campaign office.

Very good point Kazza64. People who lack decency can hardly trust each other. Their is no honor among thieves. While the existence of such people is a travesty for the rest of us, at least we can hope they live in fear of each other.

Excellent statement, imo. This is why they have to blackmail in order to get results. They still have to keep blackmailing over and over even those that have given in to the dirty deeds. They do not even trust their partners in crime. Why? Because they know how evil and dishonest they are, and that they would and could throw them under the bus in a NY min. The best way to upset the apple cart is to get them to fight among themselves. To start turning in their own. This is what we must figure out how to do. They will be in a panic for they won't know who will be next. The secret is to devise a plan and get the ball rolling and there will be a chain reaction so to speak. So yes, they will all be ready to turn them in to save their own necks for as you say "there is no honor among thieves".

They have immunity from the top-down. Clinton is a sovereign.
