Hillary Clinton Says Running for President ‘Is Absolutely Not in My Plans’

3 Ways to Brighten up Your Cooking With Sweet, Citrusy Yuja Marmalade

Sweet and citrusy yuja marmalade, or yuja-cheong, has long been enjoyed as a soothing, cold-fighting Korean tea. Simply add a spoonful of the thick, jammy base to a cup of water, hot or cold, and you’ll have yuja-cha ready to enjoy.  Beyond tea, though, yuja marmalade makes for a surprisingly versatile kitchen condiment.  The sweet-tart jam is made by sugaring thin slices of yuja, a fragrant citrus fruit. Some producers then mix in other ingredients for additional flavor and nutrients; South Korea-based Kkoh Shaem Food, for instance, makes a version with honey and ginger for a kick of extra warmth and flavor.  That makes yuja marmalade a delicious substitute for honey or sugar, and a welcome addition to all kinds of dressings, marinades, and sauces. Try mixing it into maple…

Hillary Clinton said that running for president is “absolutely not” part of her plans at the moment, but she didn’t entirely rule it out.

“As I say, never, never, never say never,” Clinton told BBC Radio 5 Live on Tuesday when she was asked about running again. “I will certainly tell you, I’m under enormous pressure from many, many, many people to think about it,” she said.

“But as of this moment, sitting here in this studio talking to you, that is absolutely not in my plans,” the 72-year-old 2016 Democratic nominee added.

Clinton added that she thinks about the presidency often.

She told the outlet that she has considered “what I would’ve done differently, and what it would’ve meant to our country and to the world.”

“I feel a sense of responsibility partly because you know my name was on the ballot, I got more votes, but ended up losing to” President Trump. “And I want to retire him,” the former secretary of state then said, without elaborating on what “retire him” meant.

Trump secured the 2016 election with 304 electoral votes and won 30 states while Clinton garnered just 227 and won 20 states.

In recent days, as she promoted the book “Gutsy Women,” comments from several former aides and even her husband, Bill Clinton, led to speculation that she was running in 2020.

Former President Bill Clinton in late October said of his wife’s potential 2020 run: “She may or may not run for anything, but I can’t legally run for president again,” Clinton said, according to RealClearPolitics.

The former president made the statement at an event at Georgetown University School of Law, coming after a former adviser, Philippe Reines, said that she might run for president again.

“You know, she ran for president because she thought she would be the best president,” said Reines on Fox News. “If she still thought that now, if she thought she had the best odds of beating Donald Trump—I think she would think about it long and hard.”

Reines later said that she suspects she might be the best person to defeat Trump.

“She really likes a lot of the people running. She knows them well. She thought about some of them for her vice presidency,” Reines said. “But there might be a reason that she’d be the best person, not only to beat Donald Trump, but to govern after Donald Trump, which is a part we don’t talk about much. And, look, you can make fun of her all you want, but 65 million people voted for her and that’s second more to anyone except Barack Obama.”

Dick Morris, a former Clinton, the adviser also suggested that Clinton could join the race if former Vice President Joe Biden drops out.

“She’s got to wait until Biden drops out because he’s obviously next in line for it, and if he goes away, there’s an opening for her,” he stated in October.

Industry Executive Expresses Concern Over Big Tech’s Overreach Amid Lawsuits

Amid multiple investigations and lawsuits against big tech companies, many in the tech industry continue to voice concern over the size and scope of the power of sites like Google and Facebook over data and information. “No single attorney general can properly hold Google or Facebook or any of the largest companies in the world accountable — and many have tried, and some have minor wins and changes they’ve been able to effect,” Zach Edwards, the chief data architect of Meta X, told The Epoch Times. “But the reality is that big tech just pushed too far — they’ve done too little to change their behavior, done too little to create real competition, and many of them have long histories of anti-consumer behavior.” The attorney general of California announced last week…
