The National Laughingstock Coordinates Another Hit With Obama's Loyalist Leave-Behinds
All in the service of relitigating the election results they just can't get over.
They're claiming that Sessions either lied or failed to disclose two brief encounters with the Soviet Ambassador "during the campaign" (but before Sessions joined it). However, all of the oral questions Sessions answered were answered in reference to a written questionnaire submitted to Sessions by Senators, which Sessions submitted written answers to. The questionnaire is the document everyone is talking about here. Sessions is answering additional questions about the questionnaire. And the questionnaire itself does not ask if Sessions had any contacts with Russian officials. As a Senator on the Armed Service Committee, presumably this would be a silly question to ask, as such Senators meet with foreign functionaries frequently. Here's what Sessions was actually asked in the questionnaire -- which forms the template and the context of all the oral questions that followed: Per the National Laughingstock, which does not draw attention to a particular phrase, but which I will, using bolding:"Several of the President-elect's nominees or senior advisers have Russian ties. Have you been in contact with anyone connected to any part of the Russian government about the 2016 election, either before or after election day?" Leahy wrote.About the 2016 election. Not just if he had any contacts, but if he had any contacts about the 2016 election. The National Laughingstock acts like it's a contraction that he did have two fleeting contacts with the Russian Ambassador -- apparently not noticing (or hoping the reader doesn't notice) that it's not any and all contacts that were asked about, but contacts specifically about the 2016 election. The National Laughingstock of course has no evidence of what the conversations was about. So there is no contradiction at all. Now, in the oral hearings, Al Franken did ask a question about other Trump staff's contacts with the Russians. He based this on a breaking Cable Laughingstock News report. His question was convoluted, and was about Trump staffers being in "constant" contact with Russians and "exchanges of information" about the campaign between them. Sessions answered this question thus:
Sessions responded with one word: "No."
"I'm not aware of any of those activities," he responded. He added: "I have been called a surrogate at a time or two in that campaign and I did not have communications with the Russians."Note that the National Laughingstock does not quote Franken's full question which prompted this response -- because if they did, you'd see how convoluted it was, and how he was imprecise about what he was asking about. I'll do the work that the National Laughingstock did not do and provide the transcript of the question, so you can see just how unsure Sessions would be about precisely what he was being asked about. Franken's question went like this:
CNN has just published a story and I'm telling you this about a story that has just been published, I'm not expecting you to know whether it's true or not, but CNN just published a story, alleging that the intelligence community provided documents to the president-elect last week [The Pee-Pee Gate Documents-- ace] that included information that quote "Russian operatives claimed to have comproming personal and financial information about Mr. Trump." These documents also allegedly say quote "there was a continuing exchange of information during the campaign between Trump surrogates and intermediaries for the Russian government." Again I'm telling you this is just coming out so, you know... but, if it's true it's obviously extremely serious. And if there is any evidence that anyone affiliated with the Trump campaign communicated with the Russians in the course of this campaign, what will you do?"Note that Franken's question is not "did you personally have any contact with the Russians?" If it had been, and Sessions said no to that, it might be considered perjury. That's not his question. His question, after this long pre-amble and references to Trumpian Sprinkle Parties in Moscow and allegations of "continuing exchanges of information" about the campaign is, if information about that comes to light, "What will you do?" That is the question. Not if Sessions had any contact with the Russians. Just "What will you do?" if the Trump Water Sports League documents prove to be true. Sessions' answer to that is obviously not talking about his own contacts -- it's about these outlandish allegations Franken is referencing. So when Sessions says,
I'm not aware of any of those activities," he responded. He added: "I have been called a surrogate at a time or two in that campaign and I did not have communications with the Russians."he's referring to the claims Franken is making, and in context, "I did not have communications with the Russians" is about Franken's claims of "constant exchanges of information" -- and, as the questionnaire specified, about the 2016 campaign. It was a surprise question, and Sessions offered a hasty "Jeese, I have no idea what you're talking about here" response. And from that, the Democrat-Media Party is now claiming "conscious, premeditated perjury." Yeah, go fuck yourselves silly. Wait, you already did. Two videos below. 1. In the first video below, you will see Al Franken frequently refer to the "questionnaire" that Sessions answered. This was the written questionnaire noted above. The first video is not about Russian contacts -- it's about Franken's insistence that Sessions didn't file as many anti-descrimination lawsuits as he has previously claimed, and that his work on the cases he did file was not as extensive as he claimed -- but you keep hearing him refer to the "questionnaire." Let me suggest this context: Sessions, frequently asked specifically about the questionnaire, would naturally take questions even when the quetionnaire was not specifically mentioned as being further questions about the questionnaire. And the questionnaire, on this point, spoke of contact with the Russians "about the campaign. 2. The second video shows Franken's actual question about Russian contact. Note that even in this question, Franken begins by offering up the context of CNN's then-breaking breathless report of "frequent communications" between Trump staff and the Russians with "exchange of information" between them. That is the context of Franken's actual question -- a one minute recap of CNN's discredited claims. Claims which specifically included "exchanges of information" about the campaign. And that's the actual question Sessions is answering. I would say that in context, Sessions would quite reasonably think Franken is asking him if he had "exchanges of information" about the campaign. Even the end of his answer -- "and I'm unable to comment on that," because, of course, Franken is asking about communications between third parties and fourth parties Sessions has no idea about -- indicates that he understood the question this way. He's saying, in essence: I don't know about the litany of claims you just read to me, but I haven't had any communications of the sort you just described to me. Or, in plainer terms: "Brah, I don't know what in the hell you are even talking about. Fuck, dude. Come up for air once in a while." The media, which has been described as having an almost autistic level of literalness in its parsing of Trump's comments, seems to be doing the same thing to Sessions here, ignoring the actual context of the questions and what Franken was actually implying and asking about.

So, not shocked. And won't be shocked when no one remembers this in a week.
There's too much noise at the federal level for little things like this to stick.
At worst, it'll be used to progress the narrative that Russia owns the Trump administration. But that's most likely not going to be a lasting string, I think. I bet it'll be gone by 2018.
Always counter these sorts of charges with, "So, Trump is going to hobble our energy sector to save Russia's economy then, huh?"

I was at a theatre event in Houston last night and the artistic director of the house (he and it are excellent) gave a speech before the play where he was talking about government funding for the arts. He made two statements that are worth reporting. First he said the only government that was unilaterally opposed to funding of the arts was Uganda under Idi Amin. Let that soak in for a bit. Then he said government had always funded the arts and listed Shakespeare and Michelangelo as examples. This claim is false on its face as the Renaissance artists were funded by private wealth - even if those people existed (as the Medici's did) as the "government". What's amazing is that the vast majority of funding for the wonderful arts community we have in Houston is privately sourced. But Trump is Idi Amin. Unreal. The show was wonderful by the way.

In memory of Andrew Breitbart, to all these Russian conspiracy theorists in the DC/NYC political-media bubble" F#$@ YOU, WAR.
He and his team need to start addressing the larger issue: this fake news, with Obama's shadow government, is essentially proof that they do not want a peaceful transfer of power. This is unprecedented and outrageous.
Screw the individual charges, time to speak to what is really going on: Obama is attempting to depose his successor. And he must be stopped.

That "question" of Senator F*ckstick Franken has all the bloviating, psychological tells of someone who imagines that the world hangs on his every syllable, pregnant pause and arched-eyebrow. He and his ilk are, collectively, a basket of delusional, megalomaniacal narcissists.
May he find himself stranded on desert island for six months with a week's food supply and discover how useful and intelligent he is.

42 This Russian fixation on the part of the Left/Democrats is odd to say the least.
It's the Left/Dems themselves who have always been in bed with Russia and the Soviet Union. Umm, Comrade Bernie went to Russia for his honeymoon.
Do they really think the Right/Republicans still have that Pavlov's button they can press, and associate Russia with all things bad?

Boom.

Not insanity: proven tactic. The Left will keep throwing shit, knowing some will stick--not because it's true but because even the most remote and tangential association with scandal can taint public perceptions.
The Democrats are veering even further to the Left with each passing day. Part of me is alarmed because this kind of extremism usually leads to violence. Part of me rejoices because they're alienating the daylights out of most of the voting public.

White Russians, heh. A joke I tell on myself. Clearly under the influence of a White Russian Novelist, early in my drinking career I strongly considered making the White Russian my cocktail of choice.
One night with my best buddy, I wandered into what had been a low-key jazz cafe, and we found to our amusement that it had changed hands, and was now a low-key gay bar. What the hell, we clearly reasoned, it can't hurt to stay and have one drink. So, at the bar, I ordered my usual. The bartender knew it.
Then I glanced up and down that bar, and every swingindick at the rail was having the same. White Russians are Ghey? Why'n't nobody tell me?
That was the last one I had in public. I won't deny it, though: once in a while I'll still have one, at home. I'm just that ghey.

press. They get stronger when out of power and weaker when in power.

I disagree, I don't think the MSM will get stronger, it will continue to slide into irrelevance, as they continue to proliferate substance free stories. The consumer does not trust them, so unless they produce something, fully detailed and evidenced to affirm their accusations, the public will continue to ignore them, only in greater numbers.

That's a long post refuting something that is patently idiotic. More evidence that the Democrats really do not know what happened in November, how they got so anemic politically, or really how to go forward. To add to their challenges in addressing a changing political landscape the Clintons and the Obamas refuse to go away.
Comparatively, the French General Staff of 1940 was a scene of youthful vigor and intellectual curiosity, a fertile field where new ideas were being grown.

It does matter to the 25% useful idiots who are not reality based, unfortunately.
However folks are increasingly turning to alt-media for news and legacy shills are losing ground even with non-participants in the political process.
Trump is now solidifying his place in the minds and hearts of the public. He's no longer the boogey-man and in fact has identified FakeNews as the enemy of the people. All they are doing right now is proving his point.
Legacy media is operating on the dictum that "media always wins". The problem in that assumption is that technology has provided competition, and the media that ultimately wins may not be their own little incestuous, criminal bubble.

The Russians are no longer communists, and have turned their back on socialism for the moment. This was out of self preservation, by the way, and has resulted in a number of benefits for the Russian state and the Russian people.
That makes them a terrible example for the socialists in our government and media who were trained to attack and diminish this sort of apostasy.
I am sure some are hoping to do what they did to South Africa to Russia, and some just are willing to find a handy boogeyman to smear President Trump's administration with.
After all, it worked in the past against them, right?

Based on how wonderful the Target boycott has been, I find it surprising that the owner of the Washington Post wants to tempt the fates with an Amazon dot com boycott.
All that is required of newspapers Is to report the truth - not create a web of lies and half truths to support an agenda.
Because my agenda will quickly become to remove my dollars from supporting their agenda.

The Left will keep throwing shit, knowing some will stick--not because
it's true but because even the most remote and tangential association
with scandal can taint public perceptions.

Then we need to start throwing 30 years of the Dems taking dirty Chinese money back at them.

So we have a President and a Vice President who mostly abstain from alcohol.

The NYT is already reporting an increased subscription rate.
Don't delude yourself. Trump won in 2016 despite their intense opposition, but the opposition papers and channels will get increased viewers and readers leading to a larger footprint.
To assume that won't lead to an increased power to shape the daily narrative is silly.

Eh, guilt by association is one of their favorite ploys - every time a GOPer does something stupid the Dems/MSM demand that every last Republican strongly condemn these acts while simultaneously implying that all of the GOP is collectively to blame for it. See: Akin, Todd.
Guilt by association is SOP.

We've secured a beachhead through the election, and gains in the Congress and State Legislatures.
To hold our gains, we need to turn to the cultural institutions, and slow the flow of immigration (illegal and legal) to levels we can assimilate.
If we don't dismantle Common Core, then we need to have traditional American history and civics be made part of the curriculum (inalienable rights, limited government, pioneer history, American exceptionalism, the whole 9 yards).
Repeal and replace the 1965 Kennedy immigration bill that was nothing less than a wholesale attempt (now significantly successful) to replace the American electorate by a coalition of urban leftists and socialist oriented masses of the Third World.
Andrew Breitbart had it right about politics being downstream of culture. So now that we've regained some control of our politics, lets attend to the culture.

Suddenly, they were faced with a monumental change that they didn't see coming.
They panicked. They don't know what to do. They now suddenly realize that they have no power center. Each wing of the party is lashing out in its own way. The defeat deepened the rifts between those wings.
They reached for the gut and did what was natural: deflect and insult.

I don't know anything about Patrick Oswald. I DO know about Adams. He was the "big government" liberal of the day back in the early days. He had always wanted a strong central government at the convention but was thwarted there. He made up for it by packing the courts which only got partially undone.

unchecked by an elite you happen to agree with at the time is good for a
nation in the long run?"

I don't know anything about Patrick Oswald. I DO know about Adams. He was the "big government" liberal of the day back in the early days. He had always wanted a strong central government at the convention but was thwarted there. He made up for it by packing the courts which only got partially undone.

I served Jeff Sessions a White Russian--white!--while I was a bartender at the Commodore Hotel back in '83. Or maybe '85.
I wanted to tell the Committee earlier, but I was Dixie Chicken.

The news media must have a massive fire-and-hire thing going on. These fresh new journalists are really very eager investigative reporters. Not like that last bunch we had during the Obama administration. It's nice to see the new talent step up and start speaking Truth to Power.

McCain is a mancurian candidate.
So is Pelosi (remember her trip to Syria).
The boss man must have his HQ in or near Syria.
That was where McCain was last reported visiting.
This stuff is out in the open. I'm just noting what is reported by the media. Russia kicked out all the NGOs a few years ago. US needs to do the same thing. The NGOs are really private armies. Funny Heinlein had private armies in his later novels like "Friday".

The company here is called WOW!, but I mostly use my phone for browsing and I have a smart TV and Roku (we bought the Roku a year before the TV) where we can watch our subscriptions to Netflix, Hulu, or Amazon Prime. It's significantly less expensive than a cable subscription, and I don't have to give any money to ESPN or MSNBC.
I don't get as much empty headed TV playing in the background (so, no Big Bang Theory, for example), which I think is an overall good thing.

The monthly TV charges have dropped substantially while broadband prices have gone up. This is in order to cover the cost of Netflix , Hulu etc etc being streamed over their bandwidth.

Sedition is overt conduct, such as speech and organization, that tends toward insurrection against the established order. Sedition often includes subversion of a constitution and incitement of discontent (or resistance) to lawful authority. Sedition may include any commotion, though not aimed at direct and open violence against the laws. Seditious words in writing are seditious libel. A seditionist is one who engages in or promotes the interests of sedition.

It's not that bad - they have Barack Obama, all rested and ready to lead them against the TrumpenFuhrer. I know, it isn't like he can be president again, but with the guidance of this Great Helmsman it is certain that the Democrats will come through these squalls with whatever figurehead he comes up with fixed firmly to the bows.

Matryoshka dolls. I had a set too. I guess I'm a KGB sleeper agent. Deep cover. So deep that I don't even know about it.
I recall having some cheap-ass plastic knock-off shit like that back as a 70s kid ... some farmer family. Had a cardboard barn and some plastic hay and such.
Were my parents recruiting me for the KGB Youth ?

Back when I was a child The Electric Company or Sesame Street had one of those dolls on and thru stop motion photography it opened up one by one then eventually reversed and closed back up.
I thought it was kind of cool.

Nope, he won't.
The question is how long can he hold onto power within the Democratic Party.
Organizing protests is something Wendy Davis can do. If he can't get Democratic lawmakers to bend to his will, then he's no more than an agitating protester.
From what I've seen, the party is very split on whether to keep following him or not. Without the institutional power of the party behind him, Obama will only see diminishing returns on his investments in protest.

Could it be as some have postulated that the left is backed into a corner ? They know Sessions is coming and they are terrified? Maybe there is a self-defensive component to their apparent madness?

This is honestly one of the most unbelievable things I've seen our media do.
They took a quote from Trump responding to (turns our false) reports that Putin called him "bright" with "great guy, great guy, strong leader" (in the context of other world leaders talking shit about him) plus a joke about "hey -- maybe the Russians have Hillary's 35,000 deleted emails! Media, look in to that!" (in the context of --probably false-- media reports that Russia was trying to "hack" in to unsecured emails of high ranking administration officials) and have spun this unbelievable meme of Russian hacking of the election, and Trump being a Manchurian candidate, and all of this absurdity that is now the mainstay of the 24/7 news cycle.
...And it's completely taken off. To the point where ace feels the need to pen a movie review about how silly it is to accuse then-senator sessions of ALSO being a manchurian candidate working for the Russkies.
All of this against the backdrop of in 2012 Romney saying Russia is our biggest geopolitical foe and Obama laughing and saying "The 1980's called and want their foreign policy back!"
Just a complete and totally absurd turn of events that no hollywood producer would accept in a screenplay because it's so ridiculous that no one would ever buy that this could happen in real life.

Meanwhile back at the Congress ranch - -
Senator John Cornyn, gutless wretch, says that his constituents didn't vote for Trump's wall and takes a trip to the border to prove it to his donors.
Senator John McCain , nominal American, goes to Europe and explains that Trump is a wannabe dictator.
Senator Lindsey Graham says whatever McCain tells him to say and wags his tail like a good boy.

The whole Russian conspiracy was originally dreamed up to distract from/cover up the Hillary server in her closet mess. The Wikileaks exposure of DNC and Podesta emails was conflated with Hillary emails and then they worked in that Wikileaks is a Russian intel operation so the Russians hacked the DNC Podesta emails then they added after Hillary lost that the election was "hacked" by the Russians.
This has all been a storyline to cover Hillary's likely criminality in the server mess, notice how it went away as something bad she did and became something bad that happened to her, and then the line was weaponized to hurt the upcoming Trump administration and tie up time and resources of theirs. Deadenders left behind were given access to classified info that could be dribbled out to media as needed.

WaPo believes that they can bring back their glory days of the 70s by working with secret oppositional operatives inside the government to bring down their second President and become "The" power in DC again.

The question isn't whether the Dems think they can take down Sessions and maybe Trump over this.
It's whether the GOPe thinks this is enough to take down Sessions and, hopefully, Trump.
The GOPe would love to get rid of Trump. They would be quite comfortable with Pence. It would be back to business as usual with cheap labor coming over the border and with the march to a global governing structure for trade and regulation, removing the headache of transnational business having to comply with the laws and import barriers of so many different countries. There would certainly be no silly wall. And back on agenda in the Middle East.
Remember: the IC and DOJ and FBI deep state bureaucrats have had all of the data about contacts between Russians and Trump people for a long time.
They have had all of the phone intercepts and the surveillance data and collected digital data from telephone switches and emails and everything else from the NSA and other sources.
They are simply playing out their hand, working with the MSM, in a timing of their own choosing.
And the key players are not the Dems, but the GOPe.

Apparently he mentioned that at the lunch he had with the MFM the day of the speech. Then when he never mentioned a compromise in the speech the MFM wanted to know what happened. Allegedly the White House said he only told them that. Sounds like he played them and they fell for it

also, I thought Senators were exempt from perjury and defamation and other normal laws when they were speaking in the Senate.
At least thats what the media told me when people said, "Harry Reid just completely fabricated the fact that he has a friend who says Romney didn't pay taxes."
So under that formulation, Sessions could say whatever he wanted, no?
Well, maybe they'll give him the Clapper treatment for lying under oath to Congress and oh-- thats right, nothing happened to him.

Also, I remember the left freaking out when it was revealed that the executive was spying on the legislature by tapping a phone in the congressional hallways to find leakers or whatever under Obama. I thought that violated the separation of powers for one branch of govt to spy on another.
Turns out that's now an inoperative thing, too?

The Bush Center is ramping up efforts to support initiatives that conflict with the Trump administration's policies, including pro-immigration programs.
"It's really through actions defending the values important to (my wife Laura) and me. We're a blessed nation, and we ought to help others," Bush said.

It occurs to me that maybe part of this "Trump is a Manchurian Ruskie" meme is to make it politically impossible for Trump to work with the Russians on the whole Iran situation.
Because if any major foreign power knows what the real deal is with this "Iran deal" or has the ability to broker a renegotiation, it would be Russia.

If Trump were really devious, he was just start firing Obama hold overs for "Russian contact" at some point in their careers and see what the MSM does with that.

Yes. Reportedly it was Pence who pushed Flynn out, not the Dems, on the grounds that Flynn had not been fully honest with Pence in recalling the details of his conversation with the Russian ambassador.
Pence should have taken a "don't ever let this happen again" position instead of joining the mob against Flynn.

You know what really pisses me off about this stupid shit? It isn't the libtards or the media (one in the same). I already expect this literal garbage from them.
It's asshole "Republicans" like McCain, Graham, and stupid fuck Chaffetz who literally RUN to the media to bash their own side. Seriously, within hours after this hitjob got published, they go on tv demanding the Sessions recuse himself. WTF? Did they not wait even 2 damn minutes to actually read up on the facts before they go along with this witch hunt?
Of course, the real reason is that 1) They are part of the swamp and 2) Trump humiliated them, and their egos can't accept it.
They are NeverTrumpers - they rather the party be destroyed than have Trump succeed (so they can protect their precious reputations - also, they won't suffer the consequences of terrible liberal policy like us rubes).
These stooges are whores for the democratic party. The media loves to put these idiots on tv so they can scream 'see, even republicans are against this!'
Fuck them. We should revoke them from the party. I don't care if it makes passing legislation harder. This cancerous shit needs to stop.

Speaking of PEDO-gate, which the MSM continues to ignore across the country and world wide. Anybody see the video of Joe Biggs reading the coded letter from Comet Ping Pong to its members on its website about a party where they will be offering five different pizzas to try and have FOUR pizzas that are a month old that they can try as well (implying the whatever have been on hand and stored somewhere for a month).
Anyway there was a members only link to the site that required certain personal passwords for members to see and gain access to. Just like all normal pizza joints that have members only links to private adult accounts.

Note that MSNBC just happened to have scheduled time last night for a 2-hour spotlight on Trump-Putin, when the WaPo and NYT stories just happened to hit. CNN was also doing a McCain-Graham town hall for some inexplicable reason.
But no co-ordination here. Totes coincidental!

They really do need a Tea Party of their own to inject live and vision into the party as a whole.
But they've got several different money sources each trying to manufacture it without a common theme other than anti-Trump.
Something could develop. Could be Berniebots at the center of it, but the problem with that is that the Bernie agenda has ALREADY been embraced by the party as a whole. The real source of that kind of movement pretty much just massed over to the Trump camp last year.

Posted by: Scalia's Ghost at March 02, 2017 10:42 AM (3OAG2)
Pence did right. If Flynn could outright lie to the VP without consequence then so could every other high-ranking member of the cabinet and security council. A Veep needs to be in the loop.
Truman didn't know about the Manhattan Project until after FDR's death. That kind of information gap is incredibly dangerous.
Posted by: troyriser at March 02, 2017 10:54 AM (Fw5cQ
Except Pence had zero clue if he lied or not. He went by the DOJ and FBI and CIA claiming that he did with zero transcripts.
So just because somebody says you lie and offers zero proof and refuses to allow access to transcripts is a huge red flag
Pence is a whinny GOPe stooge counting down the days until Trump gets impeached so he can become POTUS.

Most of us still call that treason and the press should be the first ones on the gallows. They are a deliberate willing artifice of this betrayal.

But one of the newfangled couples stayed together, divorcing their spouses. The other newfangled couple barely lasted the few weeks, and on top of that neither of them got their original spouse back.

They assume with enough volume and violence, they can whip the public into compliance. Or perhaps that is their last option at this point, and they are flailing in panic, even as they drown in their own contempt.

Morning Joe was all in on Sessions-Gate. I mean all in. Wall to wall. Al Franken live as the star. Even comical splices of Sessions' testimony spliced together with famous liars.
I don't hate many people. Cocksucker Joe is one. This guy needs to be exposed.
I now believe he did in fact kill his intern. Let's just keep calling him "Murderer"

What I'm afraid of is that Sessions is going to react as a typical Repub and step down.
And, of course, the MFM will only intensify their efforts against another member of Trump's admin. They'll keep going until they think they can take out Trump.
Bad things are coming down the pike.

My working theory is that the outgoing Obamans were trying to bootstrap "evidence" for the Fake News that Russia hacked our election and that Trump and his people were colluding with the Russians. So the "evidence" that 17 US spy groups concluded that Russia had done hacking was used as an excuse to go spying citing the discredited 1799 Logan Act as the possible violation (civilians "negotiating" with foreign governments), targeting people close to Trump, including Flynn. FISA warrants are issued and then Obama loyalists listened in. Most if not all of this happened before the regime change.
Acting AG Sally Yates has the FBI interview Flynn. Flynn couldn't recall what exactly he said because he didn't think that whatever he said was a big deal when he said it. This is an attempt to catch Flynn in a section 1011 perjury trap (just like Martha Stewart).
Flynn initially tells Trump and Pence that he didn't talk about sanctions, even though maybe he did in passing.
Yates goes to the White House and says Flynn's been compromised and is subject to blackmail. Yates initially doesn't give the WH or Flynn the transcript (not 100% on this, but people have been dancing around it).
Yates has Flynn caught in a lie because he did say something about sanctions. Then she sends the transcript to the WH, putting Trump in an awkward position.
Yates knows she's on her way out anyway, so she uses the Travel Ban EO as the basis to force Trump to fire her, insulating her from exposure because now she'll be a Leftie woman martyr, she thinks.
But now Yates has made Daddy very, very angry.

What? Flynn talked to Pence directly and assured him he hadn't spoken to the Russian Ambassador about sanctions.
He has since said he might have talked about sanctions, he wasn't sure.
He said that after he had told Pence and Pence went on the news shows and said that Flynn had not discussed sanctions. j
That is the reason he was let go. All are in agreement that he was let go because he was not truthful to Pence. Even if it was an inadvertent lie, how can you have a NSA who can't remember what he discussed with an ambassador. Forgetting discussion sanctions is not the same thing as forgetting what the ambassador told you he had for dessert.

There were two Yankees players in the Swingin' Seventies who switched wives and kids. Just up and moved into the other guy's house. It was supposed to be for a few weeks, a fun little experiment. But one of the newfangled couples stayed together, divorcing their spouses. The other newfangled couple barely lasted the few weeks, and on top of that neither of them got their original spouse back.
Something tells me that's the reality of wife swapping.

When I was down and out, I DID have a little stereo system, powered by a bottom-of-the-line Sansui 350. I had no TV or anything else to listen to.
The Sansui developed a bad channel, but was still under warranty. I stopped by the local Hi-Fi shop (remember those?) to be serviced.
The store manager took it in, and was surprised that I had purchased it at a shop 500 miles away, but, whose owners he happened to know. We talked for a little bit and during the conversation he learned that I was looking for a job.
He told me that he was looking for a salesman, and that perhaps I would like to interview for it. Well, hell, I'd never had any experience in sales or retail, but I was *desperate* for a job, so I said, "Yes, I'd like to."
So he fixed a time about a week later. What did I do? I went to the library and read cover-to-cover every issue of 'High Fidelity' magazine for the previous five years. Then...wait for it... I read through the *entire* 'Audio Cyclopedia'.
I went to the interview. A week passed, then ten days, no word. I had given up on it, then the phone rang.
It's been a long windy road since then, but that serendipitous moment ending up making my entire career, which, while not particularly enviable, has been interesting and rewarding.

This is why foreign policy should always be about America's best interests, not a crusade of democratic morals. We will have a hard enough time protecting our own republic from the enemies within at this point.

BREAKING NEWS
It has just come to our attention that General Mattis is able to correctly identify Russia on a map! He must be removed from office immediately!
He also submitted a plan to reduce Russia to stone age technology with 4 Hellfire Missiles and a cub scout troop but that's beside the point.

We still don't know exactly what was said to Pence, but the conversation Flynn had with Russians was nothing.
The point is, the Trump Administration let the Democrats/MSM have their scalp in the feeding frenzy, and now they are on to the next one because they were able to make Trump bend the knee.
It was poorly handled and it had consequences.

Just think, this is the kind of scum that the GOP threw at us in 2008. They threw corporate-CEO-blue state-moderate-establishment Romney at us in 2012. They tired to throw ANOTHER fucking Bush at us in 2016 (which he would have proceeded to lose if he got nominated).
The only good thing about this is that we are in the process of taking over the Republican party, which really began in 2009 with the Tea Party movement. Unfortunately we still have a long way to go, because much of the old leadership is still in place.

Recusal from any investigation into Russian ties to the election and Trump campaign. Because the Democrats are going to keep this up, with the help of the lying media and the Obamas. They think they can convince enough people that this is Watergate, or some such thing and they are going to continue every week to put some new angle on this Russian deal.
They don't give a you know what about Russia or what Putin might be doing militarily or in cyberspace to the USA. Because Trump said one time during the campaign that he admired Putin's loyalty to his country, they seized on that for a way to frame Trump and his administration as financially beholding to the Russians and loyal to them.
Remember all the screaming about Tillerson having been in "deals" with the Russian's as the CEO of Exxon.
Depending on when this fizzles out with Sessions, Tillerson is next.

WaPo is the official newspaper of the CIA/DeepState - this is not an exaggeration. Jeff Bezos purchased the failing paper for a measly $250 mil. Then just a few short months later secured a contract with the CIA for $600 million. Do you think that is just a coincidence? No story that WaPo runs on CIA or government mentions this direct connection or how it influences their coverage. I'll just let Carl fill you in here...
"In many instances, CIA documents show, journalists were engaged to perform tasks for the CIA with the consent of the managements of America’s leading news organizations.

WaPo is the official newspaper of the CIA/DeepState - this is not an exaggeration. Jeff Bezos purchased the failing paper for a measly $250 mil. Then just a few short months later secured a contract with the CIA for $600 million. Do you think that is just a coincidence? No story that WaPo runs on CIA or government mentions this direct connection or how it influences their coverage. I'll just let Carl fill you in here...

Sorry, I'm feeling sadistic today as my primary development system is down. If I felt *really* evil, I could've written, "nood hillary fantasy."

My goto would be the "twins" Rosa Delauro and RBG.

I see fatass Claire McCaskill has tweeted out that she's been on the Armed Services Committee since 10,00BC (ok, so I exaggerated a little) and that they NEVER meet with foreign officials. Then someone aggregated some of her past tweets about.....meeting with foreign ambassadors, including Russia's.

Why are they dragging their feet on confirmations? Why are they dragging their feet on having bills ready to go? Why are they punching right and spending more time attacking and undermining Trump than doing what people elected them to do? Why did they approve Obama's picks so quickly? Why did they refuse to attack and hold real investigations into Obama's cabinet?
I wait for your response to this. There is zero valid one because the GOPe is putting all their time and energy into outing Trump.

Out of all that bullbumpf back-'n-forth, only one thing emerges, shining-out strong and clear, and that one thing is that Der Frankenfoole, The Diaper-Dunce Fugitive From SNL, is an even-bigger lack-wit maroon and total loss as a U.S. Senator than ever before, and than it could have possibly been imagined that he would be when he was enabled by the Democraps' fraudulence in Minnesota to steal the election "victory" that plopped him down in DeeCee just in the nickel of time to provide the Last Full, Tiny Measure Of Deceit needed to slime Obamacare into zombie-existence...
Watching him bumble and bungle and fumble-around trying to - somehow - back (now-Attorney General) Sessions into some semblance of...something...is like watching some form of low-level plant life apparently trying to "question" a bull that is about to casually consume it in order to add to the clearly-many-times-higher-order animal's digestive content.

many in the national media are actively committing treason. Due to the seriousness of this charge, we need to stop everything and round them all up so they no longer have access to the communication tools they are using to commit this destruction of the United States. this is a very, very, very serious charge. We must act now, now, now.

the last AG thought it was OK to meet secretly with the husband of a person of interest in an ongoing investigation. No matter that the husband was the one the got her her prior job so she could get her current job. She was OK with this. Worse, BHO was OK with it. All the liberals in DeeCee were OK with it.
All of them have no chops in calling anything foul as their sight is political only.

Franken was fraudulently elected - recount verification showed that his win margin was exceeded by the number of felons who voted illegally. He was the 60th vote for Obamacare which should also be voided due to this fraud.
