Tonight: Clinton Interview on CNN

Last night, Hillary Clinton and the remaining presidential candidates were interviewed on CNN. The three hour event, dubbed “The Final Five,” allowed each of the candidates to propose their final arguments before Tuesday’s primaries. During Clinton’s portion of the interview, Cooper asked her about her thoughts on Republican candidate Donald Trump and whether he would behave differently as president. She simply responded, “Who knows?”

Cooper than turned his questioning toward the primaries and her battle with Democratic rival Bernie Sanders. She dismissed suggestions that Sanders would be stronger in the general election saying that she is not a big believer in polls this far out from an election and at point where the final candidates haven’t been chosen. Clinton and Cooper also touch on a number of other topics including the Supreme Court, the United States’ relationship with Israel, and a number of platform topics. A video of Clinton’s interview with Cooper is below.

Hillary Clinton Addresses AIPAC

On Monday morning, Hillary Clinton addressed the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) where she pledged her support for Israel if elected president. She said, “America can’t ever be neutral when it comes to Israel’s security and survival.” Her comments were in direct opposition from those of Republican front-runner Donald Trump, who has not appeared to be as friendly toward Israel. Clinton assured Israelis that with her at the helm, Israel would would have the full support of the United States, and she would continue to supply Israel militarily, combat anti-Semitism, ensure Iran holds to its end of the recent nuclear agreement, and continue to combat Iranian proxies such as Hezbollah.

Her address has been criticized by some as pandering, but Clinton made it clear that she would continue President Barack Obama’s stance toward Israel while defending the nuclear agreement with Iran. Republican presidential candidates Trump, Ted Cruz, and John Kasich were all scheduled to address AIPAC today as well. Democratic candidate Bernie Sanders did not attend the event, but focused on Tuesday’s primaries instead. A full video of Clinton’s speech is below and a transcript is available HERE.

Clinton then went to Phoenix, Arizona for a rally before tomorrow’s primary. During her speech at Carl Hayden Community High School, Clinton talked about a number of her platform points including heath care, added assistance for small businesses, and immigration reform. She also spent part of speech talking about the current political environment. She vowed to work with Republicans and Democrats alike if elected president saying, “I don’t remember anything like this. I will do anything we can to find a common ground. Anger is not a strategy.” A video from the event will be added when/if available.

Hillary Clinton in Cleveland

On Thursday, Hillary Rodham Clinton gave a speech at Case Western Reserve University as a part of a “Commit to Vote” event where she outlined parts of her campaign platform. She took the opportunity to criticize Ohio Governor John Kasich for signing a bill that bans rape-crisis centers from providing information about abortions. She criticized other Republican candidates for being anti-choice and against groups such as Planned Parenthood and organizations that provide women’s health services. She said, “I would like these Republican candidates to look the mom in the eye who caught her breast cancer early because she was able to get a screening for cancer or the teenager who didn’t get pregnant because she has access to contraception. Or anyone who has ever been protected by an HIV test.”

A video from today’s event will be posted when/if available.

Tomorrow, Clinton head to Minneapolis, Minnesota. In the meantime, follow Clinton on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram.
