The International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons (ICAN) won the Nobel Peace Prize on Friday, as the Norwegian Nobel Committee warned that the risk of a nuclear conflict is greater than for a long time.
ICAN describes itself as a coalition of grassroots non-government groups in more than 100 nations. It began in Australia and was officially launched in Vienna in 2007.

And now you have Hillary rewriting history with her book: she didn't lose because she came off as a corrupt politician (Debbie Wasserman Schultz resigned because of wikileaks, not because "she helped Hillary steal from Bernie"). She lost BECAUSE of BERNIE!
Bernie was so negative about her!
She accepts FULL RESPONSIBILITY for losing by blaming everyone else for her loss.
She. Is. A. TOOL!
