Margot Cleveland: The IG Missed Another Lie by Steele in the "Dossier"
And the FBI also told the same lie in their four FISA applications.
So Steele represented first that his super-sources were ones he had developed while at the MI-6, and would presumably have been vetted by MI-6 -- adding a veneer of credibility. And the FBI and DOJ represented to the FISA court that these sources had been developed while Steele was at MI-6. But now it turns out Steele lied, he had developed these bullshit sources as a private freelancer working for Russian oligarchs, and the DOJ and FBI lied along with him, and the Inspector General apparently wants to bury it. Related: Andrew McCabe admitted that he lied about leaking to investigators -- and hence committed the crime of obstruction of justice. He admitted it. Where is the prosecution?
Left-leaning politicians and the press spent more than three years pushing the Russia collusion hoax. Yet, following the inspector general’s release of his 478-page report on Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) abuse, after making quick mention of the top-line findings, the media moved on. As a result, much has been missed, including one significant misrepresentation contained in all four of the Carter Page FISA applications--an inaccuracy even the IG’s team overlooked. Two passages, separated by more than 50 pages, when read together reveal an eighth significant inaccuracy and omission from the first FISA application, and one repeated in the later three renewals: Steele's sources and sub-sources were not ones he used or developed during his time with the British intelligence service MI6, contrary to the impression created in the FISA applications.
This detail was dropped in a footnote in the IG report, following this text: "Steele told us he had a source network in place with a proven 'track record' that could deliver on Fusion GPS’s requirements. Steele added that this source network previously had furnished intelligence on Russian interference in European affairs." The relevant footnote, footnote 214, then read: "Steele told us that this source network did not involve sources from his time as a [redacted] and was developed entirely in the period after he retired from government service." The redacted language undoubtedly referred to Steele's British intelligence work.
Former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe admitted he misled investigators about his role in a media leak and apologized for it, according to transcripts of his interviews with investigators released Thursday. The transcripts were released by the Justice Department’s inspector general in response to a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit by Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington. An unidentified FBI investigator detailed his frustration with Mr. McCabe over the time he spent investigating the leak, only to discover the leak came from the former deputy director himself, according to the transcripts. Mr. McCabe had repeatedly denied he was the source of the leak, but later confessed and apologized when the investigator confronted him, the transcripts said.So he admitted it when they showed that they had records proving he lied. Only then did he admit it and apologize. What a stand-up guy. I can't wait until I'm called for federal jury duty and I get to believe what all these truth-telling straight-arrows lie to me about from the witness stand.

This doesn't go too far enough.
Dismantle the DoJ. And all of the intelligence agencies except DIA (just purge the DIA leadership). Remake the whole damn thing as three new agencies and the one remaining one:
1) Law enforcement.
2) Foreign intelligence
3) Military intelligence
4) Domestic intelligence
No one who has ever been in management at any former agency are allowed in. Field workers and analysts may reapply to the new agencies, with no guarantees and no preferential treatment.
In addition, Trump should lobby congress to repeal FISA, and order his heads to stand down on any use of FISA for the remainder of his administration.

Wait for them to deal with impeachment first. Then, during the summer break, he should do exactly that. This game the Senate has started playing of *never* doing into recess is bullshit. Wait for their summer break, then forcibly recess them and flood the system with your recess appointees.
This would be a very popular move, it would move the ball downfield BIGLY in time for the election, and the turtle will blink because he'd be looking at yet another thing that will contribute to hard-fought success in a very difficult election year for the Republican Senate. He'll bitch and moan privately and maybe issue a statement, but it will go no further. The press will scream and shriek about abuse of power, which will just amp up Trump's base and make fence-sitters realize that one of the reasons for slow progress over the first term has been Senatorial obstruction by refusing the recess.

You: "Oooooh, it's from a source? Now it really has some credibility. I retract my earlier doubts. I guess the moon really is made of bleu cheese."
(Awkward pause.)
You: "By the way, who was this source?"

Don't laugh.
If they do this, a Federal Judge will declare it binding. Then, Trump will have to go begging to the Supreme Court - establishing yet again that the Judiciary outranks the Executive. For bonus points, John Roberts is going to stick the knife in Trump on one of these things, sooner or later.

Federal Courts have already blocked Trump from exercising country-specific immigration bans - a power that had been implemented by previous presidents. Federal Courts have already blocked Trump from repealing certain Executive Orders.
Do not confuse the literal wording of the rules with the implementation of the rules. The rules, as implemented over the last three years - are that any Federal Court Judge can stop any Presidential action dead in it's tracks - pending a ruling by the Supreme Court.
This is no laughing matter, and frankly I'm surprised the House didn't seize on it sooner. If Trump won't simply ignore a Federal Judge, then the obvious play is to take every single action Trump undertakes to a Federal Judge.

just was on Fox at the bottom of the screen, must have been something that Schumer said. If this were a real trial, you wouldn't need to present evidence of innocence, the prosecution would need to convince a jury of guilt. But we all know that Trump is guilty of being.

My own opinion is that President Trump should arrange to have his SOTU from the Oval Office because the House has voted to impeach him and he fears for his safety.

It gets you 80% there.
The remaining 20% can be eroded by aggressively punishing other people for minor or even non-crimes, and generally taking a *very* hard line with ordinary citizens.
You know, like locking up Manafort for nothing, ruining Flynn's life for nothing, raiding Stone for nothing for the first case.
And sentencing people to multiple years in prison for burning a gay pride flag, aggressively going after traffic violators, doing nothing about home invasions and robberies, etc. in the latter.
I'll start believing that the law means something beyond "I get fucked and you get away with it" when it starts meaning something other than that.

This is no laughing matter, and frankly I'm surprised the House didn't seize on it sooner. If Trump won't simply ignore a Federal Judge, then the obvious play is to take every single action Trump undertakes to a Federal Judge.

It would be a good time to test how much of a Rule of Law we actually have left, when Trump says screw you to that court. House bills aren't law until passed in the Senate and signed by the President.

It, IMO, is one of the clearest examples of government intervention inverting market forces to completely and destructively upend a market.
It is worthy of a post in its own right.
TL
R:MLR changed the profit/loss motive of the insurers from one of shrewd risk assessment and minimization of costs, to one of no loss and maximum profit by maximizing numbers of policies written and maximizing payouts to providers. End result, exploding prices with no natural downward price pressure.
I now understand how the world exploded with Obamacare Navigators on every corner all of a sudden. There was a profit motive for the insurance companies to sign up as many people as possible, and thus, the market for obamacare navigators was born.
I imagine that is why the insurance companies were so gung ho. I wonder if our legislators knew and understood this. As Pelosi said, pass it to find out what is in it.

Posted by: TexasDan at January 03, 2020 12:49 PM (yL25O)
Serious answer - starting about 2012 with apparently valid accusations of corruption, Ahmadinejad fell from grace with the Iranian regime. He then compounded his disgrace by publicly criticizing the leaders and the regime which ousted him, and after that the Iranian leadership, and all of their western supporters, have worked to erase his name from every account and to eliminate his memory completely - much like Uncle Joe Stalin would do to any former comrade who ran afoul of him.
I think it shows who the NYT has been taking orders from for a long time now.

"Soleimani is--it's difficult to convey how revered he is in Iran. Imagine the French Foreign Legion, at the height of the French empire. This guy is regarded in Iran as a completely heroic figure, personally very brave," CNN host Fareed Zakaria said.
He knows about as much about Iran as he does changing a tire on his car. But he can read his emails and Twitter DMs and get what the Iranian Government wants him to say.
Posted by: Christopher R Taylor at January 03, 2020 12:52 PM (KZzsI)
The Foreign Legion wasn't a thing until the mid 1800's, and IIRC it was designed to be a way to usefully employ foreigners and get them out of France and doing dirty military stuff the French themselves couldn't be bothered with.
Holding them up as a means of comparison... I don't know. Worked with a Foreign Legionnaire and he was cool, but I also knew guys who worked alongside them in Somalia and said they used to come back to base with scalps hanging off of their trucks.

Federal Judges have successfully over-ruled Trump on matters as trivial as who may get a press pass to as large as who may cancel an Executive Order and set immigration policy - all matters which were decided by the President, right up until a Federal Judge decided they no longer were, because there are different unwritten rules for Trump.
If the Dems choose to take the resolution to a Federal Judge - that Judge will deem it binding. Then Trump will find himself in the same old situation he always finds himself in - obey a Federal Judge or refuse. So far, Trump has always chosen to obey.
The rules as written are not the same as the game as it's currently being played. Laugh all you want. It won't change a thing.

Asking for prayers for my friend Ward and his wife. He is a retired Australian Naval officer with a house and mini-ranch near Batemans Bay, Australia. Last night the fires finally surrounded his property and swept through. He was as prepared as he could be and had pumps and water running to save the house and about 1/2 acre surrounding it. The rest of nearly 30 acres is now "a lunar landscape."
Power and internet are sporadic, but he has generators, gas, food. His neighbors, not so much.

Yeah, you don't get to hear that option a lot these days.
1. Prosecutors try to force a plea deal for a conviction before a grand jury can hear a case.
2. Democrat politicians hate any form of grand jury nullification.
3. Forensic detective TV shows make physical evidence incontrovertible, and skip over the messy and annoying part of then using all that evidence as PART of the State's/Nation's case against the suspect in a grand jury setting. And then the letdown when the jury says "That's good work, but what does it have to do with indicting THIS guy on THIS charge under THIS law? No bill."

But you don't. You'd rather sit at home in your fancy house and vice-signal to the world about how accommodating you'll be to any enemy who may take over.
Do you really think that everyone - nay, *anyone* - else is like us? That anyone else will put up with your shit instead of disappearing you after dispossessing you of your wealth? Do you really think that 7th-century theocrats are interested in the opinions of a washed-up, middle-aged, past-her-prime American actress? Moreover, do you really think most people in *this* country care?
Spoiler alert: we don't. We won't, however, kill you for speaking out of turn. They will.
TL;DR fuck off, bint.

Heydrich was a real combat pilot in the Condor Legion, if memory serves. De Gaulle was a real armor officer who fought in two wars against the Bosche. As far as I can tell, Suleimashedpotatoes wasnt a professional soldier as we understand it. He was a troublemaker with a cheap uniform. Himmler the chicken farmer is the appropriate analogy.

Women tend to (note my use of the words 'tend to' not 'all', thus indicating my recognition that different women want different things) seek out situations and life choices that favor stability and order.

Do whatever you like. Apparently - we're ignoring that it's happened already. Ignoring it once more shouldn't be all that hard.
It was nuts to say the Dems would go for impeachment the day after Trump won - right up until they did. It was insane to say the Republican Establishment would work against him - until they did. And the House would never be crazy enough to vote on impeachment.
It's the same old story - "They wouldn't dare !!!". Spoiler Alert - they dare.

We condemn in the strongest terms possible the assassination of Reinhard Heydrich, Acting Reich Protector of Bohemia and Moravia. While Heydrich may not have been an enlightened being, he still possessed the spark of the divine and did not deserve to be ambushed on his way to work and shot down in the street like a rabid dog. In these trying times, we must rise above primitive emotion and extend our hand in forgiveness and friendship. An eye for an eye, a Jewish expression, just leaves all of us blind. In sorrow, but in hope for a better day, we apologize for the cruel and unwarranted actions of our criminal government.

outside of all of the fun we can have with John Norman's worlds, our ancestors here in America recognized that entire peoples have always preferred Slavery to Freedom, which is why a nation of Free Men is such a radical concept. Why is Maduro still running Venezuela? Bottom line is because Venezuelans prefer the certainty of a nasty life of slavery to the risky uncertainty of rising up as free men. Same reason Russian put up with eternally coercive governments, and the Chinese. Those peoples were born to be slaves, and slaves they will always remain. "Politics" in nations such as that is nothing more than polite negotiation about the length of their chains.

Until I started working outside the US, I never understood just how different parts of America are. No where else in the world, at least the parts I've been, is there ever the simple expectation of being left alone. Everywhere else, the spectre of what government will do hovers over everyone.
In the last decade, that same feeling has really started to come to the forefront of urban life inside the US as well. To my boy, politics is just something you see on TV. He's never lived a day in his life where he really had to give a damn. He's never lived a day, or spent a day watching anyone else, live less than free.

Funny - I was talking about something similar with my wife and boy on New Year's Day.
Until I started working outside the US, I never understood just how different parts of America are. No where else in the world, at least the parts I've been, is there ever the simple expectation of being left alone. Everywhere else, the spectre of what government will do hovers over everyone.
In the last decade, that same feeling has really started to come to the forefront of urban life inside the US as well. To my boy, politics is just something you see on TV. He's never lived a day in his life where he really had to give a damn. He's never lived a day, or spent a day watching anyone else, live less than free.

Pre trump election conversation. His position: people just want to be safe and taken care of and will continue to vote for big government.
Mine: I think people would rather be free. I guess we'll find out who is right soon enough.
Trump won. He was totally gobsmacked. He has been gobsmacked regularly since. He realizes he has fundamentally miscalculated something but doesn't really want to process it, or can't because of past choices.

Maybe it would help if modern feminism hadn't rebranded so many bad choices a "empowering!"? They follow the feminist rules and yet they are unhappy. Worse, they see people who didn't go down that path and a lot of them are happy and that pisses them off even more (see: Palin, Sarah). So then they want someone else to fix it for them (see: The Life of Julia, Obama2012).

Tucker did a little blurb last night on her. She's globetrotting and not staying in one place, but he says she is being protected because of her knowledge. I would say she has a high price on her head versus being protected. Epstein is proof of that.

"I'll be straight up with you," Pompeo says in an interview for the American Enterprise Institute's national security podcast "What The Hell Is Going On?," which I co-anchor with my colleague Dany Pletka, "you have folks who served in the previous administration who are telling the Iranian leaders today, 'Just hang on. President Trump will lose in the election in November and we'll go back to appeasement. America will write you a big check, we'll underwrite your terror campaign around the world, we'll give you a clear pathway to a nuclear weapon system. Just wait until the Trump administration is finished.'"

No, I don't think so. It will just cause a few more people to move onto the "Cold Anger" side of the ledger.
They called Al-Bagdadi an "austere religious scholar." This is tame by comparison.

Why would he? For almost a decade, the US was friendly toward the regime and its actions in Iraq. And John Kerry, former US president and Senator, was visiting regularly for strategy sessions. He was operating in the open, without secrecy and having no problems at all from the US military.

Interesting logic.

They were pushing for a war with Russia when Trump took office.
Nothing - NOTHING - matters to them except power. Any means necessary, b*tches.

They're fine. Don't forget Memorial Bridge though it's under construction. Only 3 lanes open most of the time. There is also the SE Freeway and Penn Ave bridge. They cross the Anacostia River. Just trying to do my part for the Purges during the Burning Times! I'm drawing a blank on the name of the bridge that crosses the Potomac on the north part of the Beltway.

Total myth. The LE was very careful in the former ss members it took. The number barely equaled out to a complete Line Infantry Company.
Just do a search on "former waffen ss members in the french foriegn legion and peruse the findings.

1) Nothing. Probably the safest thing. You poke the bear, the bear claws you, stop poking the bear.
2) Some sort of retaliatory B.S. Try to invade the embassy again. A bombing. Attack a ship. Problem is Trump has shown he will punch back much harder. Assume you attack a U.S. warship and kill a few sailors. You are likely to lose a nuclear reactor or refinery in retaliation.
3) Escalate - worldwide attack using everything you got. You might do some damage - even kill a few thousand Americans. Thing is, it would be game over. America could wipe out your country economically and militarily. No, we wouldn't invade - we'd just destroy every power station, every warship, every plane, every refinery, every missile, in your country. You'd be set back generations in a month.

There was a movie I saw on TV a long time ago about the Legion experience in Vietnam after the war. Showed a Legion physician looking at the blood type tattoo of a German recruit who swore he had been Heers, not Waffen-SS. Said, "Next!"
Waffen-SS were specifically banned from enlisting in the Legion. But they needed bodies to deal with Ho and the Viet Minh.

And Kerry was not interviewed (as far as we know) by the FBI for a possible FARA violation.

Look, assume the Iranians are trying to provoke the U.S. ahead of the elections, to make Trump look bad. Their calculation may have been, well, he'll attack a refinery, or a warship, and who knows, maybe we down his plane, or some school children get killed and we can play that up.
Trump said, no brah, I'm going to kill YOU. YOU personally. You shitheads that are orchestrating this nonsense. That is who he went after. He didn't have a lethal response to the "protesters" that stormed the embassy. They were just Iranian cannon fodder. He killed the organizer and leader of the whole thing.
Iranian leader no doubt could care less if some of their people get killed. but if they themselves end up dead? Top leaders who planned and executed this shit lord stuff? That is a reason to think twice.
