A source close to the 42nd president told NBC News that the situation is "not urgent" and that Clinton is "awake and alert."
Summary
Former President Bill Clinton, 78, was hospitalized at MedStar Georgetown University Hospital in Washington for testing and observation after developing a fever.
Aides described the situation as non-urgent, with Clinton alert, in good spirits, and expected to recover fully.
Clinton has a history of health issues, including a quadruple bypass in 2004, a 2010 heart procedure, and a 2021 hospitalization for a urological infection.
Even if it turns out he truly had no fucking idea about the slaves and was completely oblivious to the illegal pornography framed on the monster's walls, he still did a bunch of fucked up shit
The first thing that comes to mind for most people is Monica Lewinsky. If the most powerful man in the world asks you to do something you are not comfortable with, can you truly say no?
Even if you're not American, if Biden asks me to bleach my asshole and send him a photo, I'd do it, because I don't want the CIA to kill my dogs with mystery gas or somehow Pegasus my 20 year old microwave.

If I recall correctly, she's said essentially that herself.
I get he's a rich asshole, we got anything beyond that? I always thought his presidency was rather tame but I wasn't really paying attention to politics at the time.
how fucking old are you, gh-
Old enough to see the 1989 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle film in theaters.
Oh boy. He's actually a president I hate almost as much as Reagan!
The Clinton legacy was the complete dismantle of the federal government and privatization of core government functions. He's why we have private prisons and partial privatization of Medicare.
He was a conservative Democrats when those were still a thing. Gore was the political opposite of what Clinton stood for.
Clinton balanced the budget by ransacking social programs and aging a bunch of means testing to make qualifications what they are today. He's why public housing disappeared.
The only thing Clinton did that I like is cutting back on defense spending. He was otherwise a terrible president that unified conservative ideals of both the conservative Dems and Republicans at the time.
The only reason he didn't do more damage is the response of the Republicans at the time ended up being newt gingrich who drove the party further to the right and made it a party motto to obstruct everything that a Democrat wants to do.
Clinton move the Democrats right which caused Republicans to run farther right. The conservative Democrats that came in with Clinton still linger today with all the shitty notions of what government should look like. That's why Kamala ran the dumbass campaign that she did. DC is infected with the notion that Democrats need to be Republican lite. All this comes from DC morons wanting desperately to recreate the Clinton presidency.
Also, he made a big deal about taking time off the campaign trail in 1992 to go back to the state where he was governor to personally oversee the execution of a mentally disabled black man named Ricky Ray Rector because he was all "I'm not like those other Democrats, I'm tough on crime!"
e; believe it or not this is the better written 2nd draft
I saw that interview, and he definitely seemed to be struggling. He kept going in and out of this sort of thousand-yard stare, like he wasn't fully aware of where he was. When Stephen asked him if he remembered some event they did together, he initially looked like he had no clue what was going on, but then he started immediately recalling a bunch of details about it, so it's hard to really get a feel for what's up with him.
