Self-Righteous Pudgebucket and Short-Lister for Ukraine's Minister of Defense LIEUTENANT COLONEL Vindman Is Escorted Out of the White House by Security
Twin Brother Shitcanned Too

Vindman plans to spend more time with his bearclaws.

The left is now playing the game they play with all Republican presidents, insisting that Republican presidents must keep on partisan Democrat staffers.

Remember when Clinton fired all the currently serving US Attorneys, who'd been appointed by Bush the Elder? Probably not, because it wasn't reported on. And it wasn't reported on because of course an incoming president of the opposite party fires all the political appointees of the old regime.

But then the younger Bush fires all of Clinton's US attorneys, and the press screams it's unconstitutional and an attempt to establish a "unitary executive." Which is supposed to sound ominous, but it's not -- the Constitution establishes a "unitary executive." All lesser executive officials only exercise those powers devolved to them by the elected Chief Executive.

But during Republican administrations, the Democrats and the media (but I repeat myself) start insisting that executive power is not vested in an elected Chief Executive, but resides chiefly with permanent or political bureaucrats, most of whom are Democratic operatives or strongly aligned with liberal policy positions, and that it's an illegal abuse of office for the President to appoint people he trusts to those positions, or fire people he doesn't.

Oh, and of course when Obama fired all of Bush the Younger's US Attorneys -- crickets from the media again.

Well, the National Security Council is supposed to advise Trump and if he doesn't trust an adviser, he can fire him. And he should fire him.

Let's hope Ciaramella gets transferred to a Bering Sea covert radar ship for his next assignment.

Meanwhile, the "Black Ledger" passed from Ukraine to Democrat Party officials through their intermediary, the Ukraine-American DNC operative Alexandra Chalupa, was fabricated.

This Black Ledger was used to drive out Paul Manafort, and was the first of several fake dossiers used to build up the case for a special counsel investigation.

Fabricated.

But don't expect to see this news on Fox -- they employ CNN's fact-checkers and CNN's fact-checkers have decided that no one in Ukraine interfered in the US elections, no one at all.

(Despite someone actually being convicted in Ukraine for interfering in the US elections.)

Investigative journalist John Solomon has reported the blockbuster news that the black ledger which had forced Manafort’s departure and cast the first shadow of "Russian Collusion" over the Trump campaign, "had been fabricated."

...

Solomon emphasizes that the ledger and the dossier were the two key pieces of evidence in the case against President Trump.

Gates told prosecutors, "The ledger was completely made up."

Solomon interviewed Gates for this story and writes that he confirmed the information in the summary, telling him, "The black ledger was a fabrication. It was never real, and this fact has since been proven true." According to Solomon:


Gates' account is backed by several Ukrainian officials who stated in interviews dating to 2018 that the ledger was of suspicious origins and could not be corroborated.

If true, Gates’ account means the two key pieces of documentary evidence used by the media and FBI to drive the now-debunked Russia collusion narrative -- the Steele dossier and the black ledger -- were at best uncorroborated and at worst disinformation.

But as Fox News' liberal "Brain Room" has decided, any true stories which undermines the liberal Impeachment Conspiracy are themselves "conspiracy theories" -- automatically -- and must be censored.

So you won't see John Solomon's report on Fox.

But you will enjoy the keen observations of fatass Hillbilly Liberal Chris Stirewalt -- who looks like a lot lizard tranny on Justified -- and angry old liberal Chris Wallace and the Bitchtits Twins, Jonah Goldberg and Steve Hayes.

Of course not. Fox news is left-of-center and has the wheel yanked hard to the left. By the end of next year, it will be indistinguishable from MSNBC, at least outside of the commentary division.

And John Solomon needs a medal. I good one. One that also includes a cash prize. There are damn few journalists left and most of them suck but he's a real one.

Depends on how stupid he is, His options are limited as long as he wears the uniform. Hawaiian judges can't save his ass. Not sure about his brother though but essentially EOP folks serve at the pleasure of the president for the most part if they have policy making roles and no, Congress cannot restrict their removal due to Supreme Court Precedent. See Myers and Humphreys Executor (and Weiner as well). Only quasi-judicial or quasi-legislative positions allow Congress to limit presidential removal powers for cause.

It won't work. The channel is the flagship. Streaming is an adjunct. If the channel goes hard left before the streaming service becomes nominally independent (or at least rebranded before Fox's name becomes mud), it all fails anyway.

They're flirting with disaster. There is nothing to differentiate them in Left news. The fact that they were more or less centrist and occasionally conservative is the only thing that made them stand out.

Thus, as the Senate decided this was a False allegation, he has no whistleblower status.

Ryan, Pelosi, Turtle, Schemer, Nunes, Schiff, Burr, Feinstein were them.

Apparently if I remember correctly, CIA Dir. Brennan did sequential notifications rather than assembling them in a group which is why Nunes was left out apparently from knowing the details.

My guess is that Ryan is dirty which is why he sabotaged Rep. control of the House and went to Fox for basically protection. One clue is that Ryan allowed a bullshit Dem. ethics charge to take Nunes out of the chair position of Intelligence after he discovered the outline of the insurance policy.

That's what ALL of this is about, because through Skolkovo, the Russians stole Western tech that allowed them to build a hypersonic anti-ship missile.

132 But you will enjoy the keen observations of fatass Hillbilly Liberal Chris Stirewalt -- who looks like a lot lizard tranny on Justified -- and angry old liberal Chris Wallace and the Bitchtits Twins, Jonah Goldberg and Steve Hayes.
---
I think a key element to understanding guys like Goldberg is their frustrated desire to be seen as upper-class.

It's a major obsession with these people, and they think if they tack on enough degrees, Endowed Chairs and go to elite schools, they will be accepted as part of the aristocracy.

But they aren't and they never will be, because they have zero actual class.

Trump does, and it's enraging to them. He acts the role of the Queens blowhard, but when he wants, he's remarkably charming and at ease with himself. He likes his suits to drape, but he also knows how to look dapper when it suits him. His white tie tux fits perfectly, because Trump knows how to rise to the occasion.

You see this anger all the time, and I think it goes beyond Trump to a mid-life realization that they'll never be fully accepted as elites. Actual elites (like VDH, Roger Kimball, etc.) speak multiple classical languages and read Homer in the original Greek to relax. A while back Jonah hit Kimball and he responded in Latin, just to show off.

Having failed to be an educated elite, they try to be culturally elite, i.e. aristocratic, but there again they fail because they have no concept of actual class. Smoking a stogie, wearing rumpled clothes and throwing around pop culture references from the 90s isn't rakishly debonair, it's pathetic.

The same is true with Kevin Williamson, who fancies himself a patron of the arts, but whose go-to move when dealing with an uppity woman is to physically slap her down - just like his dirt-poor childhood.

If you actually live the country club lifestyle, were raised to have good manners, you understand that the key element is to put people around you at ease, regardless of *their* origins. It's an easy charm, relaxed and comfortable around the good things but disdaining to brag about them.

They're nouveau-riche trying to act like Old Money.

That's why they look even more vulgar than Trump.

184 It's all about covering for Hillary & Bill Clinton and their fake Foundation receiving $140,000,000.00 from 17 of the 28 Russian companies involved in the Skolkovo Project. Which was run by V. Surkov, who was one of C. Steele's Russian sources for his fake dossier.

Actually, most of that money was connected to Uranium One.

When I did watch it, it was usually in a really passive way like just having it on in the background while I worked or did other things. I never thought they were that great just somewhat better than the other channels.

BUT...the most fun I had with it was at a job I had where customers came and went for most of the day. There was a tv there and it was on Fox News and some old twat started up with HURR DURR FAUX NEWS WELL I NEVER BLAH BLAH BLAH COMPLAIN COMPLAIN GRUMBLE GRUMBLE and I lied and told her we couldn't change the channel lol.

What was great is she kept coming in and when I saw her walking up to the door I made a mad dash to make sure I changed it to Fox before she came in. Every time she'd start up like a broken record. Fun times.

They act like, with liberal political propaganda blasting from TV's everywhere we could eat our local breakfast, like we've never heard a liberal argument before.

And it completely sidesteps any scrutiny of the scam of skyrocketing higher ed costs, and the constant expansion of public funds to allow it (the ongoing money grab).

337 He is right, but wtf else does he expect? He should know that Dems don't stop. Get LGB rights, gotta add Ts. Add Ts, gotta redefine equality as mandatory pronoun reform, trannies in the infantry, and puberty blockers for tots. Get work permits for illiterate Mexicans, gotta abolish the permit requirement and let anyone stroll across the border. Let everyone stroll in, gotta give them free college education and free health care.
Seriously, when did he decide a line had to be drawn somewhere?

Posted by: not so at February 07, 2020 05:20 PM (HALdu)

Sorry, no.

Barr would be doing nothing more than saving the reputation of the DOJ.

They screwed up. It was a political prosecution, based on nothing.

That they continue to press charges, when they KNOW it is a political prosecution, is very DC.

He could call the Prosecutor in charge, have him make the announcement that due to the FBI tampering with evidence, all charges are dropped.
Posted by: Secreatry for President of Ukraine at February




Yes he could.

Then everyone would say it was Trump interfering through Barr or Barr was corrupt and a Trump flunky.

Then that would put an asterisk by Flynn forever and give the traitors to claim that everything else was corrupt.

There is nothing to be gained by doing what you suggest for Flynn or anyone else.

418 My previous favorite day in the Trump era was the day Matt Lauer got shitcanned and all day long I could hear in my mind Rush Limbaugh imitating Tom Brokaw saying "Matt LAAAAWWWUR". There was some other kind of Trumpian triumph that day as well, I think.

Every day since Monday has been better than that day.

Next in line? Step right up. There are plenty of people who need to be arrested, fired and tossed on their arse. And security clearances revoked. Not downgraded. There has to be consequences for being a lying jackhole and committing treason.

If you want to see the left go banana sandwiches, Trump should order a courts martial of Vindman for attempting to alter and falsify an official document.

Piece of garbage does not deserve to be in the military, he's a traitorous shit bird who serves another master.

I suspect they were waiting to see if Vindman put in his papers. He
didn't. That was his mistake. He's now at the mercy of the military.
There are demonstrably a bunch of offenses he could be charged with. I
suspect if they are going that route he will soon be called for a
hearing. I give it a week if that's going happen.

510 410 Chique,
If I was Ciamerella, I would be considering what happened to Seth Rich. From all indications, he is a keystone of the Ukraine mess during the Obama years. He set up the meetings at the NSC and coordinated the shebang--including Biden, the Ukrainians, etc.

My guess is that the CIA, State Dept. folks like Victoria Nuuland, and maybe some defense critters along with McVain, and some others dating back to the 2014 Ukraine uprising where the pro Russian President was ousted in a popular revolt which spurred Russian annexing Crimea and pro Russian separatism in the Donbass region.

There is a big, stinking rotten record, of the Obama administration doing a lot of dirty work like running stuff from Libya to support Syrian rebels which morphed into Isis. Supposedly Ukraine was also involved in shipping weapons to the Syrian rebels. Turkey was the conduit for Libyan arms apparently which is why the whole Benghazi thing blew up. Mike Rogers (the rep from MI, not NSA Rogers), Intel Cmte Chair was in that up to his eyeballs along with Ryan. I also suspect a lot of skimming of foreign aid and military aid coming back to Sen. and Rep. families and foundations.

No one has learned on the job more rapidly than DJT. He is not a pro politician or DS er, willing to trade a few scalps to satisfy the fans in the stands. He wants revenge.

I think the conversation with Barr and Durham and Miss Lindsay and that asshole Burr from NC, and even Cocaine Mitch, has gone something like this....

530 507, It would be hilarious if they had a FISA warrant out on the Vindman brothers as agents of a foreign power. After all, Vindman admitted he was asked to be Ukraine Def. Minister in an open forum. Isn't it two degrees from them which would include Schiffie, Etc.

That would appear much more than simply sitting by a Russian graduate student at a dinner which was used by the Feebs to instigate FISA warrants on the Trump admin.

Posted by: whig at February 07, 2020 05:59 PM (EUDB2)

531 Look when Vindmann was asked to testify, he had several choices.

1) Not testify and count on executive privileged. Perfectly honorable and safe.

2) Testify, but restrict your testimony to facts that you yourself observed and verified. No opinions. ex. "on August 24, at 2:36, I heard the president say..." Less safe but still perfectly honorable.

3) Include hearsay as part of your testimony. ex.
"I heard from the ambassador, who heard from a Ukrainian officials, that Trump said..." Not honorable or safe.

4) Mix your opinion in with facts, hearsay, and whatever else comes to mind. "I heard from the ambassador, that heard from a Ukrainian guy, that trump wanted to do this, but didn't because X and I think that is wrong and betrays the trust of the country blah blah." Not safe, not honorable, and you deserve to get your ass canned.

Which one is Vindmann?

535 Sometimes I wonder if left is actually stronger when a Republican is in the white house.

Hard to say because, like with Obama, we find out his putting raging partisans in the permanent beurocracy keeps paying long after he is out of office.

IMO, Trump is still trying to reform DC, I believe that is impossible. Right now would actually be the best time for states like Texit before Trump leaves office and we lose the senate.

Trying to seceded after a dem is in office, they will use the full power of government and media to go full on imperialism.

558 537 Tuna,

I suspect that he has known a lot since the NSA director Adm Rogers risked it all during the transition to warn him what was going on. The Deep State just did not have enough time to punish Rogers and run their little insurance scheme and traps.

What has come out, I suspect Trump knows even more now and probably has key nodes of the Resistance identified.

Targeting these nodes without damaging the patient is the problem. Open up all the FBI misdeeds, you risk collateral damage in all sorts of criminal cases, Open up the CIA misdeeds, you blow covers, compromise sources, and damage foreign relations, Ditto with NSA-Five Eyes abuse and State Dept. misdeeds. And then the DOJ has similar problems when the Atty Gen. is committing a coverup for Hillary with the assistance of the FBI. Imagine the cases that could be compromised.

Trump is a civic nationalist and wants the country to do well but going to the mat will make the Watergate, Church Commitee on CIA abuses, and Iran Contra look like a Sunday picnic in comparison. A sitting President, His Attorney General, the Directors of the FBI, CIA, his National Security Advisor, the National Security Agency, and numerous underlings at those agencies directed a political intelligence operation designed to eliminate or remove a presidential nominee who became the incoming President. They then executed a criminal investigation to coverup their misdeeds. Covering up Hillary's misdeeds, as bad as that is, is small potatoes to this.
