Former Clinton Pollster Mark Penn: To Save the Republic, Robert Mueller and the Deep State Must be Stopped and Defeated
A sensible opinion, coming from a completely unexpected speaker.
The "deep state" is in a deep state of desperation. With little time left before the Justice Department inspector general's report becomes public, and with special counsel Robert Mueller having failed to bring down Donald Trump after a year of trying, they know a reckoning is coming. At this point, there is little doubt that the highest echelons of the FBI and the Justice Department broke their own rules to end the Hillary Clinton "matter," but we can expect the inspector general to document what was done or, more pointedly, not done. It is hard to see how a yearlong investigation of this won't come down hard on former FBI Director James Comey and perhaps even former Attorney General Loretta Lynch, who definitely wasn't playing mahjong in a secret "no aides allowed" meeting with former President Clinton on a Phoenix airport tarmac.No seriously, this is coming from Bill Clinton's former pollster.
Note that Bill Clinton's former pollster is more skeptical of the Deep State's current story than alleged Bad Boy of Conservatism Ben Shapiro.
With this report on the way and congressional investigators beginning to zero in on the lack of hard, verified evidence for starting the Trump probe, current and former intelligence and Justice Department officials are dumping everything they can think of to save their reputations. But it is backfiring. They started by telling the story of Alexander Downer, an Australian diplomat, as having remembered a bar conversation with George Papadopoulos, a foreign policy adviser to the Trump campaign. But how did the FBI know they should talk to him? That's left out of their narrative. Downer's signature appears on a $25 million contribution to the Clinton Foundation. You don't need much imagination to figure that he was close with Clinton Foundation operatives who relayed information to the State Department, which then called the FBI to complete the loop. This wasn't intelligence. It was likely opposition research from the start.
In no way would a fourth-hand report from a Maltese professor justify wholesale targeting of four or five members of the Trump campaign. It took Christopher Steele, with his funding concealed through false campaign filings, to be incredibly successful at creating a vast echo chamber around his unverified, fanciful dossier, bouncing it back and forth between the press and the FBI so it appeared that there were multiple sources all coming to the same conclusion. Time and time again, investigators came up empty. Even several sting operations with an FBI spy we just learned about failed to produce a DeLorean-like video with cash on the table. But rather than close the probe, the deep state just expanded it. All they had were a few isolated contacts with Russians and absolutely nothing related to Trump himself, yet they pressed forward. Egged on by Steele, they simply believed Trump and his team must be dirty. They just needed to dig deep enough.Mark Penn concludes that stopping Mueller isn't about party or politics or any particular president, but necessary to preserve the normal functioning of democracy itself. Obviously, worth the read. Richard Fernandez has previously written that we are now experiencing what we had long avoided in America -- a deadly fight of a King vs. another King (the current president versus the Deep State embeds of the previous president), and that this fight may change America forever. He now elaborates on that idea, as he watches two scorpions with a death-grip on each other trying to kill each other before the other kills first. The Deep State understands that either they must find some claim that Trump is a criminal, or else they'll be prosecuted for their own rampant criminal acts.
The invaluable timeline of the investigations compiled by Sharyl Attkisson seems to confirm what Lee Smith of Tablet Magazine has already suggested: that the roots of domestic spying predated the Trump candidacy. He notes that "Obama officials vastly expand[ed] their searches through NSA database for Americans and the content of their communications. In 2013, there were 9,600 searches involving 195 Americans. But in 2016, there are 30,355 searches of 5,288 Americans."That seems to have been Obama's plan all along.
... On January 20, 2017, "Fifteen minutes after Trump becomes president, former National Security Adviser Susan Rice emails memo to herself purporting to summarize the Jan. 5 Oval Office meeting with President Obama and other top officials. She states that Obama instructed the group to investigate 'by the book' and asked them to be mindful whether there were certain things that “could not be fully shared with the incoming administration." In response to Trump's demand, Rod Rosenstein has asked the DOJ inspector general to review the possible infiltration of the Trump campaign. The hunters have themselves become the hunted. For better or worse, two major American political factions are trying to jail each other. The outcome of their struggle may determine not only who occupies the White House, but what future role the intelligence agencies play in public life.
The specifics of the individual accusations may be fake, but the struggle over the control of the bureaucracy is frighteningly real. Concern over the independence of powerful bureaucracies has long been paramount for a reason. The biggest problem with weaponizing intelligence agencies is it CREATES a pathway for the foreign takeover of the system. If a once hostile power takes over the White House and that president corrupts the agencies, an unfettered secret police will have the ability to remain in power indefinitely.

Think people in DC are going to be following Brazile's and Penn's lead in trying to distance themselves from the Clinton slime machine.
Good luck with that!

I think the biggest thing is that Penn acknowledges the existence of the Deep State.
Bill Kristol did one important thing - he tweeted he would prefer to be ruled by the Deep State rather than Trump.
I keep saying that the Deep State is like a bad Ludlum novel. And it is scary AF.

If the GOP hangs on to the House and Senate this year, and Trump wins in 2020, the fight might end up simply going on for too long in general.
The public won't care anymore, but they'll keep giving Trump and his party power, which will enable them to take greater hits on the deep state the longer it goes on.
If Trump wins in 2020, he could put forward some really strong civil service reform that pisses off a lot of the federal bureaucracy, and the public won't care anymore about their whining.
If the deep state doesn't win soon, it's pretty much destined to have a lot of its power strangled and potentially even some of his highest members cast out of power. Hell, we may be past that, if Rassamussen's reading of Trump's popularity is even remotely correct.

Yeah just when Shaprio shows some sanity and clarity regarding Trump he slouches off into the investigation and believing all the wrong people. Its pretty sad stuff, that someone as bright and quick as he is doesn't see through this better.

Then again, Brazile seems to be back to her usual Dem hack habits, probably because the MSM effectively buried her book about the Clinton Campaign-DNC shenanigans in 2016.

And this, rightfully, is what Trump is likely after. So long as our Congress and courts are ruled by mountains of secret dirt and threats of career-ending leaks run DC, the people will never have the Representative Republic that we have naively presumed to have enjoyed.
At the end of this, perhaps major IC reforms are on the horizon.

I have thought for many months now that this isn't (just) a pansy-ass coup attempt against a properly elected president. This is an all-out death struggle. We have a problem in that in one body we have both a republic and a basically-autonomous bureaucracy that plays by its own (often extra-constitutional) rules and towards its own ends. When this is over, one will have the upper hand over the other.
For some time, the autonomous bureaucracy (the deep state) has had quorum power. The republic is trying to take it back. Best case, the quorum power moves back to the republic and the deep state is lessened. Worst case, the republic is defeated and the deep state ascends permanently.
I try not to be hyperbolic in everyday life, but I suspect this might be for all the marbles.

If a once hostile power takes over the White House and
that president corrupts the agencies, an unfettered secret police will
have the ability to remain in power indefinitely.
That seems to have been Obama's plan all along.
Been saying this forever. The only thing standing in the way of a permanent "Party" acting like the gestapo and getting more and more power while punishing its enemies is that we turn over our exec branch often and we used to have some constitutional limits.
Had Hillary been elected, it the Great Experiment would have been OVER.

No one, and no one will be. What happened in the USSR will not happen here. The deep state is a cabal without a real head (or a hydra, if that is a better analogy). Can't cut the head off and shut it down like you can with an entire outgoing government *system* like the USSR. You can just try to strike as many nerve centers as possible and hope to kill off enough of the body that the republic can recover.

"we need an internal force just as powerful, just as well funded, as the military" paraphrased Obama
They tried to say that was AmeriCorps or some such. But an internal shadow-FBI/CIA is more fitting, and more like what we have. Funded by some oligarchs with their own private armies. With some general fund that can send billions (that we know of) to Iran in secret, that can run a ClintonFoundation that is not really a charity and never gets audited, but keeps collecting.
The coup has been ongoing and is still going. But it is not two kings fighting, it is one duly elected POTUS (and we the people) versus shadow oligarchs and globalists running a crime syndicate, even though they have noble sounding goals, I'm sure (if we ever got to see the minutes from the secret banker meetings where Hillary discusses the open hemisphere.

As much as I want to believe maybe there's a few honest Democrats left, I have to wonder if there's some personal feud that has nothing at all to do with any of this.
Funny how a Democrat poobah labels it the "Deep State", I thought only Alex Jones believed in that.
Reminds me when Dona Brazile said she was scared for her life when Seth Rich was killed.

Remember also that the recruiter/spy that was "exposed" last week did dirty work for family Bush/CIA. He's apparently been sabotaging the electoral process for years with the blessing of both parties.
So Deep State has been maintaining deep corruption for, likely, longer than any one of us or our parents or their parents' parents have been alive. It's just a matter of how corrupt/incompetent/cowardly those elected to office have been along with them to keep these scandals hidden.
Trump is apparently the Kwisatz Haderach. He has survived the coup and is in the early stages of turning the apparatus around against itself. Just by being his own man with the support of tens of millions who have been searching for another way, Trump has become a killing word.
We are likely in historic times. SMOD, thy name is Trump.

CBD, it would be verrrry interesting if the "death match" / scorpion fight turned out to be between Clinton and Obama, not Trump, with Trump sitting back and enjoying the show.

yay, Ace lnows history!
"war between the states" isn't just a Virginia / Carolinas meme. the "American civil war" was in fact a war of some states against others - more like Britain against France. (although some states did conduct mini civil wars, like Missouri.)
a true civil war is Sulla v. Marius. those make the Late Unpleasantness look pleasant.

Published in "The Hill", which is encouraging. I'd hope other outlets will pick it up...but I have my doubts.
One way to get readers of WaPo and NYT to see it is to post a link in comments, for those wanting to do so. There are ways to get info to the left...we just don't employ them.

DoJ is arguing that it is not part of the regular government, that it is not overseen by congress nor part of the executive branch. DiFi is tweeting this out.
Sounds like another Constitutional adumbration and/or penumbra, comin' up.
So apparently DiFi thinks there are now FOUR branches of government. Maybe she (or hubby, Leon Blum, busy cashing checks for that HIGH. SPEED. RAIL. boondoggle) are feeling some heat right now. DiFi in particular is hanging by a thread right now in CA, being challenged from the left in the upcoming primary (for which the CA Democrat Party refused to endorse her).

Remember also that the recruiter/spy that was "exposed" last week did dirty work for family Bush/CIA. He's apparently been sabotaging the electoral process for years with the blessing of both parties.
So Deep State has been maintaining deep corruption for, likely, longer than any one of us or our parents or their parents' parents have been alive. It's just a matter of how corrupt/incompetent/cowardly those elected to office have been along with them to keep these scandals hidden.
Trump is apparently the Kwisatz Haderach. He has survived the coup and is in the early stages of turning the apparatus around against itself. Just by being his own man with the support of tens of millions who have been searching for another way, Trump has become a killing word.
We are likely in historic times. SMOD, thy name is Trump.

As Bubba said, "it's the economy, stupid".
The bottom line is that people don't really care about all this pointy headed policy stuff, they care about what impacts them at home. The tax cuts and jobs coming back: that's what counts. They don't care if someone humped a porn star back when Cameron Diaz was cute, they don't care if someone minor part time worker in a campaign talked to a Russian, and they sure as hell don't care if some staffer talked smack about an old dying a**hole senator.

"we need an internal force just as powerful, just as well funded, as the military" paraphrased Obama
They tried to say that was AmeriCorps or some such. But an internal shadow-FBI/CIA is more fitting, and more like what we have. Funded by some oligarchs with their own private armies. With some general fund that can send billions (that we know of) to Iran in secret, that can run a ClintonFoundation that is not really a charity and never gets audited, but keeps collecting.
The coup has been ongoing and is still going. But it is not two kings fighting, it is one duly elected POTUS (and we the people) versus shadow oligarchs and globalists running a crime syndicate, even though they have noble sounding goals, I'm sure (if we ever got to see the minutes from the secret banker meetings where Hillary discusses the open hemisphere.

Second, if you're right (and I hope you are) then turning the state's machinery against itself in fewer than two years will be one helluva fast turnaround - like slaloming an aircraft carrier. I am not *that* hopeful, but a man can dream. I suspect more that it was just injure the deep state to some degree.

Washington DC's Praetorian Guard.
The Praetorian Legion chose the Roman Emperor. Soon, the possible Emperor candidates would offer minor inducements to curry favor, like more pay (1.5X, based on the "fact" that living in the capital city was so expensive). Soon it became outright bribery and theft with the chosen emperor giving the ten times their annual pay and more.
One Emperor refused to go along. He was promptly assassinated.
The Praetorian Guard chose the Roman Emperor based on what he could do for the Guard, not what he could do for the Roman Citizens.
Sound familiar?

She was tight with the Clinton's for decades as well as the former head of the DNC. She came out before the final Clinton supporter had finished crying over the election throwing Hillary under the bus for her cheating ways and there wasn't midterm poll in sight.
If you ignore the media and just look at the facts and you look who is in the White House this was always going to end in tears for the coup plotters. Those on the left who are in the know and have the ability are fleeing. Those who can't are going Slim Pickens and riding the bomb right into the ground. They have no choice.

Good morning. Had a little blood-pressure-related adventure this morning... anyway, they gave me some medicine, discharged me, I fell asleep, and here I am at 3PM Central...
The specifics of the individual accusations may be fake, but the struggle over the control of the bureaucracy is frighteningly real. Concern over the independence of powerful bureaucracies has long been paramount for a reason. The biggest problem with weaponizing intelligence agencies is it CREATES a pathway for the foreign takeover of the system. If a once hostile power takes over the White House and that president corrupts the agencies, an unfettered secret police will have the ability to remain in power indefinitely.
This would explain why the OPM database was handed over to China and the CIA didn't scream bloody murder. It's amazing how noone even seems to remember it happened, and it was a far far worse situation than "OMG, the SMR just shitposted to facebook."

This got Willowed from previous thread. And should I clean it up and publish it?
You see that misshapened girl there? The one hanging back lost in the crowd but still gawking at getting this close to her DNC gods? Believe it or not sleepers, she'll soon be one of those gods. But not in any usual way, no sirree bob.
Her name is Philadelphia Burke and Hillary is her hero and goddess all rolled into one. Can you grok that you zombie? She will soon enough because here come the two dark clothed men sporting the black sunglasses. The sound of her body hitting pavement is lost amid the cheers as one man holsters his TASER and nods.
Her lumpy limp form is hustled by those imposing men down the alley she'd been in and then tossed into a van like so much dead meat. But no she still lives as she bleats like a stuck cow in shock. The side door slams closed and she rolls on the floor as the vehicle accelerates.
Now here is where it gets weird you dead heads. She finally croaks out a word between twisted teeth and cleft lip but she can't move as Philadelphia discovers her hands are tied. "What?"
A woman enters her view with a not so charming smile plastered on a gorgeous plastic face. "How would you like to meet your goddess?"
Hog-tied and croggled, Philadelphia blinks in confusion as another "What" escapes her constricted throat. The false smile never falters but something in the eyes changes of the artificial woman even as a hand lifts up Philadelphia's chin.
"Oh we know all about your social feeds. And you Philadelphia Burke. Everything. We're going to do you a big favor, give your life a major upgrade where you can meet those you adore.. Does that sound good?"
"I guess."
The hand is stronger than it would seem and Philadelphia feels her hefty body being pulled toward the scary strange woman. "I'll ask again. Do you want a better life?"
Her chin is starting to hurt along with a back protesting at being held at such an odd angle, it hurts so much it makes Philadelphia's eyes water. Just to stop the pain she nods and whispers. "Yes."
Now ghouls listen close as we get to the really weird part of this story. Hang on with those talons as we veer far off course and miss the Twilight Zone.
The hand releases Philadelphia and the young girl falls to the van's floor with a thump which makes her body jiggle even more than the van's movements had caused. But it is a blessed relief not to be held like that. She finally regains her wits and breath to look up. "What now?"
Philadelphia blanches as the smile is no longer pretending to be nice, it is she decides a cold triumphant smile. That she has lost some kind of game and has no idea what it is.
The woman in what is obviously an expensive business suit merely waves a hand in dismissal. "Nothing to worry about. Just some minor hardware upgrades for you since you have a new job."
Philadelphia blinks in confusion, what new job. No one wants to hire her with all of her problems. "New job?"
The woman takes a sip from a glass and now gives Philadelphia a calculating look. "We are going to see what kind of actress you are besides all those MMORPGs that you are fond of."
"Actress?"
"Oh yes my little pet project. When I get through with you, you will be the perfect waldo controller for Hillary."

This is what makes this situation extremely dangerous.
These people know that if they can't bring Trump down, they are going to federal "pound you in the ass" prison. They'll do literally anything, from forgery to murder, to keep their money and positions.

So apparently DiFi thinks there are now FOUR branches of government. Maybe she (or hubby, Leon Blum, busy cashing checks for that HIGH. SPEED. RAIL. boondoggle) are feeling some heat right now. DiFi in particular is hanging by a thread right now in CA, being challenged from the left in the upcoming primary (for which the CA Democrat Party refused to endorse her).

What is really sad here is that the Moribund CA GOP could have rallied beyond one Senate candidate here instead of having "Amateur Hour" of five of them and perhaps finished second in the "Top Two" primary.
Instead we will have Old Guard Stalinist Commiecrat DiFi against Trotskyite Reconquista Commiecrat Kevin DeLeon in the general.

Guys. Lets not be spiking the ball just yet.
One of Two things have to happen before the "criminality" of what happened gets any traction.
1. The Press needs to be leading the charge. And that NEVER happens against Democrats.... and certainly is not happening while Trump is President.
2. An insider.... somebody involved, has to spill the beans. "Yes, Senator. We were ordered to do the Code Red. And We were ordered by ." And.... they cant be minor beans. They have to be felony sedition beans.
Until one of those two things change the paradigm here.... nothings going to happen.

The coup has been ongoing and is still going. But it is not two kings fighting, it is one duly elected POTUS (and we the people) versus shadow oligarchs and globalists running a crime syndicate, even though they have noble sounding goals, I'm sure (if we ever got to see the minutes from the secret banker meetings where Hillary discusses the open hemisphere.

As far as being Churchillian? No idea. On a scale of 1-10? R.

Someday, maybe there will be a legal element to it (and I would welcome that with excited jumps and bubbling good humor). But, right now, JackStraw is way early celebrating success.

If you ignore the media and just look at the facts and you look who is in the White House this was always going to end in tears for the coup plotters. Those on the left who are in the know and have the ability are fleeing. Those who can't are going Slim Pickens and riding the bomb right into the ground. They have no choice.

I want to believe that, but I also saw Lois Lerner walk out with her full pension.
And Eric Holder was gun running for Mexican Cartels. Guns that have been linked to all sorts of murders. Now he's running for President and makes bank as a race hustler.
And Susan Rice got a sweet gig on the Netflix Board of Directors.
The list goes on and on.
I hope though you're right.

Ever see that movie with Jon Voight. I think it was called Runaway Train.
That's the one where he's an escaped prisoner. He gets a freight train and has no real chance of escape. All he can do it wreck it. The cops can't stop him but he can't get away. He puts it to full speed and climbs on the roof and stands there waiting for it to impact the end of the line.
All the deep state can do is wreck everything. That's the last card they can play. Trump can't let em go and they can't let Trump go.
Train is gonna get wreckt.

>>But, right now, JackStraw is way early celebrating success.
Not really. I've actually been following this whole thing very closely for well over a year now. Once a few of the early dominos fell it was just a matter of time.
I'd say it's more apt to say that people here have been on the whole way too negative in the face of clear evidence that things were indeed going our way and "happening".
Besides, if you count draining the swamp as part of success it was been an enormous success so far. It may not seem a big deal to some but taking down over a dozen senior people in the DOJ/FBI is in fact a very big deal.

179 Many here were worried PDT might lean a tad to left for their tastes and were worried about that. AND AND if the left had played nice with him, he actually might have...But they went for the jugular and totally alienated him pushing far to the right. I'd like to thank them for that. LOL

Always my fear. At this point, who knows if the left could have co-opted him, and who really cares.
Posted by: SH at May 21, 2018 04:16 PM (sX1BW)
I don't think he's malleable, frankly. I expect that over his long career, and in view of his great wealth, that LOTS of people have tried to schmooze him. So I bet he's pretty impervious to such blandishments.
For these reasons, I doubt that the left shoved him to the right, or that the left could have co-opted him. I think The Donald knows his own mind pretty well, and will do whatever he thinks ought to be done.
Recall that all the "experts" wrote him off before the election because he was doing everything all wrong by their lights. Most likely many of his advisors shared that opinion. But, to coin a phrase, he persevered.
In a less sanguine take, someone with as much ego as Trump is unlikely to follow - or be influenced by - much of anyone, under any circumstances.

The party is merely the vehicle by which policy is advanced via elections.
Unless and until Mark Penn and his ilk admit that their belief in government as the answer to all our problems is a lie, then all of this is moot.
Same goes for Dershowitz, et al. And the answer is NOT the GOP.
The answer is ordered liberty and respecting the nation as founded. If we share at least that much in common, then we can work out the rest, to greater or lesser degrees of satisfaction.

At first I thought Trump ran for the Presidency as a bit of an ego thing, then I thought is was just that he loved his country the old fashioned way and couldn't stand to see d-bags in charge any more.
The as he assumed the helm, it became clear he was not shocked or ill prepared for the storm that was thrust upon him. I am starting to think that he has a much deeper insight that nearly everyone gives him credit. That's why I was bringing up the Churchill thing. The right man for the right time, but not necessarily for all times. But the times we are in are the times we need a Trump like character.

Note that Bill Clinton's former pollster is more skeptical of the Deep State's current story than alleged Bad Boy of Conservatism Ben Shapiro.
I know it is hard to remember, but we were still constitutionally solid then. I do believe the rot began during that administration, but there were still sane people in the Dem party.
Yes, we disagreed, but we still agreed on the Constitution. That is why things are entirely different now...we no longer all agree on the Constitution. Old time Dems don't recognize their party either.
I keep reaching for terms to better explain the divide. Starting to settle on the Resistance (Leftist media, anti-fa, marxists, Celebs, tech leaders, nevertrumpers, deep state, et.al) as one side. The other side would be....unsure. Constitutionalists? I haven't figured that one out yet.
But the Resistance are those who seem to have decided against our Constitution. Our rule of law. Our electorlal college. Our election result. Our amendments. Capitalism. All those things. It crosses party lines.
Then there is "our side" which also crosses party lines. The Resistance named itself. They are proud of it. Haven't figured a name yet for our side ...yet.
Those are more accurate about our current battle for the soul of our nation, IMO.

Our ancestors reached this conclusion in the 1920s. That too much immigration breaks down the civic notion of a united people. Their answer was to cork immigration for 40 years. In those two generations we fought a World War with mass conscription. But by 1960 most viewed themselves as American. That is not the case at present. We have somewhere between 60 - 75M new arrivals speaking their native tongue, living in tight little ghettos with no expectation of them having to bear a burden for others. Maybe time to cork immigration again. If you don't, you won't have a country or a Constitution.

(1/3) There are at least 2 possible scenarios: #1 In 2016, before anybody thought @realDonaldTrump would win, the FBI correctly anticipated the Trump campaign would be uniquely targeted by Russia & devoted extraordinary efforts to investigating it.(cont.)
+++++
(2/3) including placing at least one spy/informant close to Trump campaign & wiretapping or surveilling at least seven Trump associates-- all while President Obama denied such election interference was possibl-- and yet in the end.
+++++
(3/3).the FBI was still incompetent at preventing the Russian interference they'd investigated all year, and then found no grounds to open an investigation into realDonaldTrump until after he fired FBI Director Comey. Or #2 The govt spied on Trump for political purposes.

What I found out that was the most interesting about the whole Cankles Clinton/Russia thing is not the lead story but the minutiae that goes on behind the scene that gives you insight into the character of one of the main conspirators. The Russian agents that first contacted the Canker were actually quite well known in the West. The famous Boris Badenov and Natasha Fatale attempted to infiltrate the Clinton Foundation in the early 21st century following the Fall of Communism. They introduced her to Natasha's friend Huma Abedin, since she went both ways. And had no standards.

But, right now, JackStraw is way early celebrating success.
Not really. I've actually been following this whole thing very closely for well over a year now. Once a few of the early dominos fell it was just a matter of time.
I'd say it's more apt to say that people here have been on the whole way too negative in the face of clear evidence that things were indeed going our way and "happening".
Besides, if you count draining the swamp as part of success it was been an enormous success so far. It may not seem a big deal to some but taking down over a dozen senior people in the DOJ/FBI is in fact a very big deal.

Lincoln.

We Americans venerate Lincoln, but to play devil's advocate, consider 1) he was not well-regarded in his time, not even by his Cabinet, 2) he had the Civil War thrust upon him, and so had no choice, 3) his management of the Civil War was dismal, much worse than W's management of the Iraq War, 4) he looked on course to lose the election of 1864 until Sherman took Atlanta, and 5) he had absolutely zero impact on world affairs.
I'm not dumping on him, but putting him into perspective. His fame largely arose after his assassination, much like the case of JFK.

That's a bit too cute. Italians had their mob and a few anarchists, but most of them got with the program and waved the flag and wanted to be here and worked once they got here.
Some Jews were troublemakers --i.e commies. And not all Jews are genius types--although they do seem to be over-represented in that category.

Feinstein on Twitter made a point I would say more clearly: to the Dems, elections really don't count for anything.
"The Justice Department is not an arm of the White House. The Justice
Department is independent and serves the American people. Its job is to
follow the facts and the law. Law enforcement investigations must be
initiated and carried out free from political interference."
Clinton and Obama can put in their people, and Bush and Trump should just let them 'serve' the American people.

I get the parallels. But the Italian immigrants were LEGAL. And their families--not mob families-- were tighter, church-going, intact and were not the drain many Latinos are; tell me, was out of wedlock birth a problem with Italian immigrants?

Politics
Navarro ran for office in San Diego, California three times as a Democrat. In 1992, he ran for mayor as an independent, finishing first (38.2%) in the all-party primary, but losing (48.0%) to Republican Susan Golding in the runoff.[25] During his mayoral campaign, Navarro ran on a no-growth platform.[26] In 1996, he ran for the 49th Congressional District as the Democratic Party nominee (41.9%), but lost to Republican Brian Bilbray (52.7%).[27] In 2001, Navarro ran in a special election to fill the District 6 San Diego city council seat, but lost in the primary.[28]
Navarro supports President Barack Obama's phase-out of incandescent light bulbs, the adoption of wind energy, and carbon taxes in order to stop global warming.[29] He has also advocated an isolationist[30] and protectionist[30] American foreign policy.

This sounds right to me. Obama gets knocked out of the way, the black voters blame Trump, and Hillary coasts to victory in 2020. And then dies before inauguration day.
Someone on Twitter suggested an alternate version:
- Let the investigation pin Obama to the wall
- Pardon TFG while prosecuting all his underlings
- All media/Dem heads literally explode, Scanners-style
- PDT cruises to reelection
