Hillary Clinton’s rumored vice presidential pick Sen. Tim Kaine defended his vote for fast-tracking the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) on Thursday.
Kaine, who spoke to The Intercept after an event at a Northern Virginia mosque, praised the agreement as an improvement of the status quo, but maintained that he had not yet decided how to vote on final approval of the agreement. By contrast, Hillary Clinton has qualified her previous encouragement of the agreement, and now says she opposes it.
Kaine’s measured praise of the agreement could signal one of two things. Either he is out of the running for the vice presidential spot, as his position on this major issue stands in opposition to hers. Or, by picking him, Clinton is signaling that her newly declared opposition to the agreement is not sincere. The latter explanation would confirm the theory offered by U.S. Chamber of Commerce head Tom Donohue, among others, who has said that Clinton is campaigning against the TPP for political reasons but would ultimately implement the deal.
With only hours to go before Clinton announced her pick, Kaine was unabashed in defending his vote. “Fast track was to give President Obama the same tools to negotiate a trade deal that every president since Gerald Ford has had, and of course I voted for that,” Kaine said. “Why would I not give to this president the same tools to negotiate a trade deal that other presidents have had?”
Fast track powers allow the president to submit the agreement to Congress for an up or down vote without any changes. Fast track was widely viewed as necessary for assuring final passage of the agreement, and few Democrats supported authorizing those powers for Obama for the TPP. Only 28 House Democrats and 13 Senate Democrats voted in favor of fast track.
Kaine explained that now that the final agreement has been reached in international negotiations, he is weighing whether or not to vote for it.
“I am having discussions with groups around Virginia about the treaty itself. I see much in it to like. I think it’s an upgrade of labor standards. I think it’s an upgrade of environmental standards, I think it’s an upgrade in intellectual property protections,” he explained. “I do see at least right now that there is one element that I do have some very significant concerns about. And that is the dispute resolution mechanism. And I’ve got a lot of concerns about that. So I have no idea about when a vote would be because the majority will make that decision. And I’m not in the majority. But long before there would be a vote on that I’m trying to climb the learning curve on the areas where I have questions. So again, much of it I see I think as a significant improvement over the status quo. The dispute resolution mechanism I still have some significant concerns about.”
The dispute resolution provisions Kaine is referring to would expand the corporate right to sue governments over alleged violations of the TPP. Many fear that it infringes on national sovereignty.
Kaine’s praise of the TPP’s expansion of intellectual property rights stands in opposition to concerns from many that the agreement will expand patent monopolies over life-saving drugs. The medical charity group Doctors Without Borders has warned that TPP provisions would make some pharmaceutical drugs too expensive for the world’s poor.

I do not know about TPP – but TTIP has a hard time in Europe (thank God, finally some woke up to this madness). The clever negotiators now try to implement the slightly different CETA to provide a backdoor version of TTIP.
Clinton has her own agenda that has nothing what so ever to do with representing the citizens of this nation. She is, by any other moniker, just another Trump in DNC garb! Everything to fear and nothing to look forward to but more of the horribly insane same old same old! It has become difficult to tell where the ass hole of the Business party really is anymore: is it the DNC this election or the RNC, or both shitting on us at the same time?
“Or, by picking him, Clinton is signaling that her newly declared opposition to the agreement is not sincere.”
Really? So is there someone who really believed her “declared opposition” was sincere? One thing liars always do is lie! Hillaary will lie and say anything to get elected.
Now this choice of Kaine sends the message to Wall Street, “Send your money to me! I am on your side!”
Anyone with a brain already knew she was owned by the 1%. Now she is triangulating for conservative votes, just like Bill taught her.
Progressives, blacks, hispanics, those against war, climate change justice and income inequality, who the hell cares about them?
Where the hell else are they going to go anyway?
The precise plan is to go after the Spanish speaking voter, due to the big loss of the Left vote. Clinton is a hawk, a tied at the hip Wall Street laky. She will never stand up for The People, and that truth is becoming more and more clear as she moves the campaign forward. I am sure she was convinced by Obama to go with Kaine, because he will champion the TPP, and that way, Hillary does not have to do much dirty work on that for Obama. The smoother her path is made by the DNC inside crowd, the thugs who blocked the Sanders Campaign at every angle they could find, the more damaged the Left feels. Even if it is not true, even if the Left CAN Organize and Defend their Ideas, it will be harder, simply because of “doubt”. This is what the DNC aimed for. Doubt. DO NOT LET THEM win with doubt. Do not allow the enormous Ideas and Energy we all had with Bernie, to be doused by the waters of doubts. We can unite, and we can find a New Way, a New Progressive Path that includes all real thinkers, all the working class who want a future. Uniting in a New Party is one good option. We cannot win “this” election, but we can sure as heck plan for the next round of elections and be ready.
Kaine is going to support TPP. OBAMA is basically Bill Clinton All Over Again, and these Trade deals prove it. We have to stand up to this idea of Trade that degrades the workers rights, moves jobs offshore so fast your head is going to spin. 5 Years folks. That is what I give it, if TPP is enacted, we will see another huge job loss in the USA, by the 5 year marker. Please do not allow the TPP to go unnoticed. Take a firm stand. Call, write, make a lot of noise against the TPP and the other Trade Agreements. They are not what Obama would have you believe them to be. The corporatists want to take over the world, and he is planning to assist them in doing so.
It is official now, and I can only say that if C-K win in November, then Virginia’s gain will be America’s loss. I only hope he resigns his senate seat so we can be rid of him either way.
C’mon, progressives. This, and the email dump, and you still think it’s a good idea to vote for Clinton? Of course, she has no intention to abide in her primary-era progressive epiphany. No one in modern politics is a more calculated and inveterate liar … except for, maybe, Donald Trump.
I’ll be voting for Jill Stein and any down-ticket candidate who is genuinely progressive.
It means she’s trying to pick up disaffected republican voters and to hell with Bernie’s supporters. So if she wins she won’t owe the base anything and that’s the way she wants it. Kaine was the one Bill Clinton wanted which I think means that they are still looking at triangulation as the way to govern.
This is no surprise but a slap in the face to Sanders, who garnered huge support. Voting for third party is not solution until third parties are viable in this country. Trump would be much worse on Supreme Court nominees.
His “law and order” speech was downright scary. We need Bernie and his surrogates to start massive street demonstrations against both parties, but I fear Sanders is too tied to democrats. Bashing Clinton is fine, but what can be done to stop the corruption? Co-ordinated demonstrations in every state and a new progressive national organization with leadership initiated by Bernie. Please make suggestion to Sanders campaign (info@bernie sanders.com). If not then Green party. Too many “progressives” complaining and not acting.
Kaine and Unable,
funny if it weren’t so repulsive!
Looks like a winner. Hillary has a vagina and Tim speaks Spanish. Who cares about policy? We win!!
I’ll just cut to the chase and state the obvious: Hillary just blew any chance of getting the progressive vote. I was barely considering voting for her, but that’s all over now. This election is crap on both sides.
Kaine should have seen all the damage the other free trade agreements did and not given Obama Fast Track privileges. The excuse are getting worse all the time.
“No TPP” could not be on the Democratic Platform because it would embarrass Obama and Clinton. Really, that is how decisions are made.They should both be embarrassed for selling out the people to corporations.
Hillary helped craft and sell the legislation for the TPP, around the globe, she has been advocating for it for years..anyone that believes she is suddenly against it needs to do their homework when it comes to Hillary Clinton..she will say whatever it takes to get into the White House, with no intentions of changing a damn thing because she cant..shes indebted to too many people, she will have enabled her million dollar contributors to make the laws of the land, the sick part is that she will make good on their returns, regardless of the consequences that will follow for all of us, some of which are toxic, others will be the demise of the middle class…this country was handed two poops on a platter as options for our next president/commander in chief…we are screwed either way…I wouldn’t vote for either one of them, they are both narcissists/pathological liars. who will leave very similar results when all is said and done. #DemExit #NEVERHillaryorTrump
Hillary being against the TPP is a joke. Kaine is a big supporter of the TPP and the only reason he has a problem with the ISDS clause is the Tobacco carveout. He is from Virginia and if tobacco companies were allowed to sue under the ISDS clause he would be all for the TPP 100%. As for Vilsack he is nothing but a mouthpiece for GMO crops and Monsanto who heavily want the TPP and the ISDS clause so they can sue all of the other TPP countries that currently ban their products. They would also use foreign subsidiaries to sue the United States if any state tried to pass their own GMO labeling law or ban GMO products. I hate Trump but if Hillary votes for one of these two TPP pushers I’m voting for Trump.
Hate is a useless emotion .. you should not use it. :-)
Ahhh Hillary does not have a vote.

yesterday’s candidates have nothing to offer America’s future.
If only the DNC realizes their folly while there is still time.
Time has run out, I believe…
I urge anyone even remotely interested in the consequences of these secret free trade deals to google exactly as follows: German tv documentary “Konzerne klagen”. This will take you to a documentary produced for mainstream German tv with English subtitles.
They’re giving away the store. When they’re finished, we won’t be able to regulate stray dogs without ensuring that it doesn’t infringe on corporate profit expectations lest we be sued. You’ll understand the method and the secrecy after watching the video.
Stuart, cannot find the version with English subtitles
Make sure you google all five words as written. This should pull up a screen with the first option having exactly those words (with YouTube following) that when clicked, presents a subtitled version.
But also, above that first option, at least on my screen, is a pretty picture of sailboats in a harbour. When clicked, this also should provide a subtitled version.
Be patient. It’s in there. Thanks for your interest.
To be clear, sometimes their are two pictures of sailboats in a harbour. The one detailing a running time of 43:22 minutes and presently 3904 views is the one with subtitles.
Thanks for the recommendation. The documentary is very well done. Interesting to note that Canada is the most sued country, and US companies are doing the suing!
Anbody who signs this on either side is a traitor to his or her country and a sell-out to mega corps.
I’m sure Shitlery will follow through with her conviction du jour …
but really, has anyone asked Haim Saban if he wants TPP passed?
How does TPP impact Israel? cuz there’s your answer.
HRC says she against it so she picks for V.P. someone for it ?.? Oh, Gee, Golly Miss Molly I didn’t know he was going to vote for it?.? WHY DOESN’T THAT HOLD WATER?.?.? An under the table dirty trick – a bit early – – – deny, deny, deny….lie, lie, lie…OH, he misspoke that’s not what he said…..or is it that’s not what he meant?.?
I’m surprised Trump didn’t catch this one and use it – – – ANOTHER DIRTY UNDER THE TABLE DEAL – FROM CROOKED HILARY???
Clinton and the Democratic party leadership deserve to lose and are, seemingly, willing to risk losing to a madman and sacrificing the country to a new Mussolini as long as they can maintain their corrupt relationships with Wall Street, corporate and military-industrial complex special interests.
Clinton is a disaster. Kaine is a big middle finger to progressives. Bernie was the only hope of beating Trump.
Wow, he voted for what the president requested. String him up! Is this the worst you can find about him?
No, they quoted him too.
Despite his warts, if you are against the free trade rip off, the investor settlement rip off (watch the German video referenced later)-“Konzerne klagen” you have no choice but to fully support Trump and pray he is telling you the truth and is not assassinated. My only real concern with Trump is climate change but I do not believe anyone will commit to the trillions necessary to save us. If you watched his angry speech at the convention and you are a worker and you are not angry with how you have been screwed over for more than a generation by your corrupt politicians and their corporate bosses, you are beyond hope.
Just don’t understand why anyone is even thinking of voting for this woman, she made Bernie piecrust promises in the hope of reeling in his supporters, it won’t work, we see her as the neocon, closet republican that she is, she’s not fooling anyone, if she does win the presidency, she will renege on her empty promises on day one. Cannot believe this election comes down to these two crooks, but the lesser of two evils is still evil. Will not vote for either one. Who cares about Tim Kaine.
So Hillary has to pick a man that loves coal mines and TPP. Looks like Jill Stein just got my vote. A vote for Clinton or Trump is people just begging to be thrown into the streets, begging for crumbs; while either of these IDIOTS are eager to get on the bandwagon for the continuation of the decline of America.
Both Trump and Clinton picked people most of us have never heard of. Sad part is from what I am reading about them, I prefer they stay in the background along with their corruption and STUPIDITY!
Once again the Hildebeast uses poor judgment. Who cares about Tim Kaine? He’s a token in a sea of far left wackos. If folks recall, 0 paraded Biteme as a strong foreign policy expert and implied that Biteme would be managing foreign affairs. As best as one can tell, Biteme did little more than mourn his son and tell people to “buy a shotgun”. Kaine would be similarly marginalized and ineffective.
Tim Kaine is about to achieve his career-long ambition. He has been running for VP ever since he became governor in VA, always tuning his policies to attract the attention of the democrat elites, and never to serving the people who elected him. I must say in his favor however that he was actually the better choice in both his gubernatorial and senatorial runs, which demonstrates the dismal state of politics in VA. The so-called two party system at its best.
A pair of old time libaturd losers and that’s the best they can do? Tax and spend, open borders, class warfare,Obama Care, the JV Team ISIS even on American soil. What a pathetic record this administration has and what Obama 2.0 would be!
Might as well pick Mitch McConnell as Kaine . No real difference, a neo-liberal Wall Street Democrat is just a refection of a neo-conservative Wall Street Republican paid for by the same masters.
If Kaine wants equal tools for Hillary to negotiate trade deals…. just leave them alone then… has the Senate voted to change them “since every president from Gerald Ford” ? I’m thinking they want MORE POWER than the “presidents since Gerald Ford”.
Spend an hour talking to loyal Clinton supporters on the issues, Clinton’s past legislative and political actions, they are not able to give details or information. They can however recite lyrics to most Kanye West, U2, Katy Perry, Lady Gaga and Madonna songs. Now that’s U.S. Intelligence at work for taxpayers!
The collective IQ of Americans has gone down exponentially over the past fifty years My bet is more people under the age of fifty watch the Kartrashians and Comedy Central (this is what passes for libturd news) than actual news, or even the biased alphabet channels. They can’t put together a coherent sentence and want “Free Stuff” and “Safe Space” so their tender feelings won’t be hurt.
much like her hgusband’s disasterous trade bills Nafta and Gatt, Obama and Hiotl;ary are dead set on killing what is left of American jobs and sovereignty with TTP and TISA. As a union member, I support American jobs and wouldn’t touch these dems with a ten ft pole. We have seen what happens when we elect relatives of former presidents back to office..read my lips…”no new clintons” in the white House..
no tpp what is wrong with you people i will not support any party that is for tpp
No surprise there. Clinton is all for the TPP, too. She’s just saying she’s not to get elected. VOTE JILL STEIN!
–” Many fear that it (TPP) infringes on national sovereignty.”–
The public has little idea of how this free trade thing is evolving. There are 600 some claims against countries, worth $billions, currently working their way through a secret tribunal process. That’s $billions of taxpayers dollars.
I highly recommend a gold standard documentary that details that and much, much more. Google exactly as follows: German tv documentary “Konzerne klagen” . This will take you to a 43 minute doc in German with English subtitles. It’s a jaw dropper.
One such claim is made against Canada by an American registered oil company claiming lost profits and lost opportunity. This was prompted by the province of Quebec, with broad public support, placing a moratorium on fracking under the huge St Lawrence River. Notably, the company had yet to put a shovel in the ground when Quebec moved to protect the river. …But they have a legal right to frack under the river under NAFTA, the people of Quebec be damned.
These secret trade deals are secret for a reason!!
Hellery wants to legalise HOME INVASIONS.
what a pizza chit.
i want this re-narrated in english
what does it take?
please.
You might try contacting Gus van Harten, PhD in Law, at York University in Toronto. You will recall that he appeared in Konzerne klagen. York is the third largest university in Canada and will have all the resources necessary to produce an English dubbed version, and perhaps do so on their dime if you had van Harten in your corner guiding you to the possible options within York. The only hangup may be copywrite but I doubt it as it’s presently on YouTube. Van Harten’s email: gvanharten@osgoode.york.ca. Thanks for your interest in this outrage and Good Luck.
My project come September is to send Konzerne klagen to every elected and appointed public rep that I can find an email address for, –and I encourage others to do the same.
Free Trade isn’t so much about free trade as it is about superceding democratic control and handing the keys to the store to “the investors”. The managerial class has finally found the answer to stop and turn back the evolution of democratic control that has so concerned them since they toyed with fascism in the 20’s and 30’s.
Read the label on your food container. Due to some great trade deals, law suits have resulted in removing country of origin from label. Now some want to essentially remove the entire label…..think Dark Act.
So, he hasn’t decided how he’ll vote on the final TPP approval, eh? Another case of voting for it before he voted against it? I wonder if he will give us his thoughts on the meaning of is?
OMG, Hillary is “against” TPP now? Might not have this guy as VP since they aren’t in agreement?
Hillary is a NWO/North American Union globalist. She will do all she can to advance the NWO. It pays big to sell out yr country. That’s why Benghazi doesn’t matter. That’s why it doesn’t matter that Bill is a rapist. Hillary took out Gaddafi because he was threatening to take oil off the dollar. Assad has to go because he wouldn’t let in IMF. The Clintons are CRAVEN. Completely without any principles at all.
It looks like Hillary is going to shove that microphone down her throat to end it all. She knows she is in trouble.
I don’t think Hillary is stupid. If she picks him as VP she will hand Donald Trump the presidency.
If she chooses him for VP she will lose the election.
Tim Kaine praises the TPP and wants to give big banks even more freedom to screw the country over. If Hillary picks Kaine, it will prove that she is totally tone deaf to the people and she’s going to lose a lot of support from real progressives. If Trump becomes President, it will be because Clinton gave it away
So your kid clicks on the wrong video on YouTube,and daddy gets a $10,000 fine from a TPP secret court,plus possible criminal charges. Someone tell me how that is an improvement on intellectual property rights rules? Sounds rather draconian to me. I fail to understand.
Kaine and Enabler.
I knew she’d pick this lame little d-bag.
Amazingly, a sovereignty-killing trade agreement, despised by both the Democrat and Republican bases, is still waiting with demands for implementation. Not only does Clinton’s potential VP want it, but so has Trump’s VP, Pence. Apparently, they believe that it will be pushed through after whomever is elected. A reasonable patriot would have learned a lesson from NAFTA, which greatly enriched a tiny percentage of Americans at the detriment of millions and depletion of almost the entire Middle Class. The Chamber of Commerce and their puppet politicians of transnational corporations have betrayed the nation in acts more treasonous than ever perpetrated upon us in the past by our foreign enemies.
Hillary and Tim never met a banker or a Wall Street hedge fund manager they wouldn’t take money from or a trade pact they couldn’t get behind for the right amount of money.
How dispiriting it must be for those Bernie supporters that he ended up endorsing that Wall St. money-grubbing corrupt POS by the name of Hillary Clinton. Welcome to Realpolitick, dear idealists. Hope your landing was too bone-shattering.
If she picks Kaine we can only hope she keeps him in D.C. Those of us inside the Commonwealth who value the Constitution and the freedoms it bestows upon us would appreciate it she just kept him for the long term. Even she loses we can only hope she takes him with her to NY or AR. Please, please, please…
I was temporarily stuck in AR back in the late ’80s and early ’90s . The only reason so many reasonable AR people there supported Bill’s run for the White House in ’92, is that they felt the state would be better off with him and Hillary in DC than it was with him and Hillary in Little Rock.
Don’t get me wrong I became a supporter after the BS that Gingrich (and crew) tried to pull, but more because I felt that no deserved that kind of treatment than because they were such outstanding examples of American leadership. after the last 16 years Hillary has more than used up any goodwill wrought from Gingrich’s excesses. I could overlook her Senate Iraq vote, but her term as Secretary of State has led me to believe that she isn’t just unqualified to be president, I feel she would be a serious danger in a role that is anywhere close to that kind of power.
No surprise Kaine supports TPP. So does hillary, she just won’t admit it because she knows how unpopular it is with the people. Hillary is a deceitful crooked careless person who will endanger this country if she’s ever allowed back into the White House. Her only interest is how she can cash the country in to the coffers of her foundation.
Ohio, Michigan and PA should be a lock for Trump!!!
“By contrast, Hillary Clinton has qualified her previous encouragement of the agreement, and now says she opposes it.”
Unless she wins. Then she’ll claim she was forced to sign TPP and every other job-killing international trade pact to repair the damage to America’s reputation from Donald Trump’s “hateful campaign rhetoric”. Sorry it’s gonna hit those who voted for me the hardest but it’s all HIS fault.
Flip-flop once, flip-flop again.
Don’t worry. He’ll say he never said it and she will back him.
Talk about two retreads. Kaine and Fable 2016…
Crooked Hildog and her cronies. Liars all.

Hillary sucks banker dong
Which is the only dong she sucks. If she had serviced Bill, he wouldn’t have needed Monica.
for some reason your comment stands out like the truth in a pool of Hillerlies.
barabbas, you are so pathetic — not one comment here (31 so far) has defended Hillary Clinton. Try to keep your eyes open, watch out for cars, and type with your fingers next time.
Uh-huh. He voted for fast-tracking but isn’t sure how he will vote on the final agreement.
Sure.
Of course, if he’s lucky, he’ll be VP by then and will only have to vote if it’s necessary to break a tie in the Senate. ;^(
Hillary must want Trump to win, selecting Kaine as her running mate will definitely insure that November Democratic turnout is low and that those who do turn out are more likely to vote for the green candidate than for her.
After watching Trump’s speech tonight and considering what a total fraud and liar and war criminal Hillary Rodham Clinton is, I don’t care WHAT she says at the upcoming convention.
There is NOTHING Hillary Clinton can say at this point to convince the majority of Americans to trust her or vote for her.
This election come November 8th is Trump’s to lose.
Yet, here we are talking as if there are only two choices. November 8th is Jill Stein’s to win!!!
Other than her status as an unconvicted war criminal based on her spearheading the violent overthrow of the Khaddafi regime and her role in fomenting the el qaeda war in Syria, the Harpy’s cynicism on these so-called “trade deals” disqualifies her from the presidency. She betrays the interest of the American people by favoring the replacement of the rule of law with rule by corrupt corporate tribunals. I also concur with Dave Francis’ statements on the fact she is only there because the primaries were fixed.
Latest news Guccifer, a Romanian hacker Leak Reaffirms Primaries Were Rigged for Clinton? Did you really think Hillary run an honest campaign? She can’t be honest about anything—she is a pathological liar. We now know, because her emails were stolen by a hacker in Romania, that even this election was fixed. “The memo is just one of several documents released by Guccifer 2.0 proving the Democratic National Committee rigged. “The memo is just one of several documents released by Guccifer 2.0 proving the Democratic National Committee rigged the system for Clinton. Before the primaries began, DNC strategies were developed with Clinton in mind as the presidential nominee. The leak affirms claims by Bernie Sanders’ supporters that the Democratic primaries were not an election, but rather a coronation for Hillary Clinton.
Because many of the documents incriminate mainstream media outlets in their gratification to adhere to the DNC’s strategy, the Guccifer 2.0 hacks have gone largely unreported. Some of the documents even reveal how the Clinton campaign fed specific stories to the media in order to boost their political agenda.” She, in complicity with the Democratic national Committee connived to violate the law. Think the Federal Elections Commission will investigate—maybe they will and ask the FBI to do it for them, which is laughable and stunned a huge proportion of America after FBI director allowed her to walk free. If you really want to learn the truth about Hillary R. Clinton, and her perverted husband Bill it’s all available at https://assets.donaldjtrump.com/ClintonFacts.pdf
Only her diehard flock ever believed her “Progressive who gets things done” bullcrap. I am going green, I wash my hand of the Democratic party. Trump and Clinton are on them now.
Hey now, this is Murika! The tremendous profits generated by lifesaving drugs are obviously more important than the lives it saves. What are you, Cuban? That sort of medical humanitarianism sounds very Cuban.
