Boing is starting to have a bigger mysterious trail of bodies around them than Hilary Clinton.
It's really competitive of them trying to knock Putin off of the top of the charts.
“The Congressional Record (1994) stated that the compiler of the original list, Linda Thompson, admitted she had "'no direct evidence' of Clinton killing anyone. Indeed, she says the deaths were probably caused by 'people trying to control the president' but refuses to say who they were."
“Several sources have discredited the conspiracy theory, such as the Congressional Record,[4] the Lakeland Ledger, the Chicago Tribune, Snopes and others, pointing to detailed death records, the unusually large circle of associates that a president is likely to have, and the fact that many of the people listed had been misidentified or were still alive. Others had no known link to the Clintons.“

Can we let Vince Foster rest you fucking ghouls.
As someone who’s not following 🇺🇸 news, what does that (Hilary) part means?
There's a conspiracy theory (not entirely without merit, but generally assumed to be baseless) that people with negative information about the Clintons end up dead suspiciously. Epstein was one such person, under this theory.
Thanks for explaining.
I never heard of that. and for the Eipstein, I always associated his info with powerful people, but not specifically with the Clintons ಠ_ಠ
Right, there are a lot of possible names to blame for Epstein for sure. Like I said, it's a theory that's largely considered to be baseless. The Clintons have a lot of faults, but I haven't seen any indication that they're into assassinations.
Why didn’t they kill Monica? This conspiracy theory is actual garbage.
Both of the Clintons are garbage human beings who didn’t/don’t deserve to be in office (which is true of most politicians). Bill definitely coerced women into sex. But when the loudest critics of the Clintons are tinfoil loons, it takes all of the air out of the room.
That's the biggest hole in the theory for me. If they're willing to disappear people, there are a lot of people they seem to have missed.
There's a sort of counter theory that says that the Clintons themselves started the conspiracy theory as a way of putting all Clinton dissent under the heading of a conspiracy, and honestly I find that much more believable.
