Former deputy attorney general calls Comey a ‘partisan pundit,’ the latest volley in public back-and-forth between the two men Rod Rosenstein left the Justice Department after nearly 30 years, including two as deputy attorney general. Former Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein kicked off post-government life by slamming former FBI Director James Comey, calling him a “partisan pundit” whose firing was justified. Speaking to a group of city officials in Baltimore on Monday, his second day as a private citizen, Mr. Rosenstein defended a memo he wrote in May 2017, which the White House initially cited as grounds for ousting Mr. Comey. As the head of the Federal Bureau ...
The Bear’s Lair: The Brexit War is entering its Western Front phase

Even for those whose political and social views are blandly acceptable to the censors, the new regime in Britain poses an obvious threat, this time economic. As this column forecast four weeks ago, Treason in the Brexit process prospered, and Brexit has been postponed to October 31. Businesses groaned, as the uncertainty prolonged itself to an unendurable length. Most likely, Brexit will now either be abandoned or diluted to a degree where Britain does not break free of the EU’s regulatory straitjacket. However, the battle is not yet over, so I thought it sensible to use this Easter respite to offer some thoughts on how to maximize the chance of a genuine return to a free Britain. ...

Sometime in the next 4 weeks, the Justice Department’s inspector general will release an internal review that will reveal the origins of the Trump-Russia investigation. Among other matters, the IG’s report is expected to determine “whether there was sufficient justification under existing guidelines for the FBI to have started an investigation in the first place.” Critics of the Trump-collusion probe believe that there was never probable cause that a crime had been committed, therefore, there was no legal basis for launching the investigation. The findings of the Mueller report– that there was no cooperation or collusion between the Kremlin and the Trump ...

Alexander Downer Defends FBI Tipoff That Sparked Trump-Russia Probe 9:35 PM 05/09/2019 | Politics Chuck Ross | Reporter In his most detailed remarks on the topic so far, former Australian diplomat Alexander Downer defended the tip he gave the FBI regarding George Papadopoulos. Downer said that as a “warrior the Western alliance,” he provided the FBI with a memo he wrote after a May 10, 2016 meeting in which he says Papadopoulos mentioned that Russia might release information about Hillary Clinton close to the election. “I don’t know why he told me this,” said Downer, dismissing Papadopoulos’s claims that the diplomat was sent to elicit damaging ...

Rep. Jordan: Surveillance of Trump Campaign Was Spying By Sandy Fitzgerald | Friday, 10 May 2019 03:23 PM Rep. Jim Jordan Friday disputed former FBI Director James Comey's contentions that the agency didn't spy on President Donald Trump's campaign, saying that he "doesn't know" what else someone could call the surveillance that had taken place. "We know spying took place," the Ohio Republican told Fox News' "America's Newsroom," pointing out that a FISA warrant was obtained through the use of an opposition research document funded in part by Democratic Nominee Hillary Clinton's campaign. "They didn't tell the ...
Clinton Aide Squeals: ‘Everyone Knew’ About Obama’s Illegal Wiretapping

Clinton Aide Squeals: ‘Everyone Knew’ About Obama’s Illegal Wiretapping March 8, 2017 Baxter Dmitry News, US Hillary Clinton’s former campaign manager Robby Mook has become the latest Democrat to roll over and squeal on his former comrades, telling Fox News Wednesday that he and everyone else in the Clinton campaign knew Obama was wiretapping Trump Tower. Anyone who says otherwise is lying to save their skin, Robby Mook says, as Democrats scramble to clear their names. Democrats ran an arrogant, sloppy spying campaign against Trump because they assumed that a Clinton victory was certain. They didn’t think Trump would ever be in a position to expose their crimes. ...
Yemen Continues Military Progress as Native Mercenaries Abandon Saudi Coalition

Native Yemeni mercenaries, including officers and sheiks, have abandoned the Saudi Coalition and returned to their homes after being offered general amnesty by the Houthi-allied Yemeni army. AL-DALI, YEMEN — Throughout Yemen, drivers are queuing up for hours hoping to get a can of fuel from overcrowded petrol stations. The fuel shortage comes as the Saudi-led Coalition and its allied mercenaries in Aden are preventing tankers laden with oil from entering Hodeida port, Yemen’s largest entry point. Nine tankers have been prevented from docking so far, worsening an incredibly dire situation, described by the UN as the “world’s worst humanitarian crisis. The Saudi-led ...
Zelenskii Beat Poroshenko - What Will Happen Next?

As everybody predicted, Poroshenko completely lost the election. As I wrote in my previous column, this is both amazing (considering Poro’s immense and extensive resources and the fact that his opponent was, literally, a clown (ok, a comic if you prefer). His defeat was also so predictable as to be almost inevitable: not only is the man genuinely hated all over the Ukraine (except for the Nazi crackpots of the Lvov region), but he made fatal blunders which made him even more detestable than usual. First, there was this masterpiece: Translation: April 21st. A crucial choice! Translation: April 21st. A crucial choice! Now one could sympathize with Poroshenko: not only did this ...

In this universe of paradox, inequity, ironies, and fake-outs one strange actuality stands above the rest these days: that the much-reviled President Trump was on the right side of RussiaGate, and the enormous mob of America’s Thinking Class was on the wrong side — and by such a shocking margin of error that they remain in a horrified fugue of outrage and reprisal, apparently unaware that consequences await. Granted, there’s a lot to not like about Mr. Trump: his life of maximum privilege in a bubble of grifticious wealth; his shady career in the sub-swamp of New York real estate; his rough, garbled, and childlike manner of speech; his disdain of political decorum, his ...

It appears that Donald Trump is at least vaguely aware of how much influence the Alt-Right had on his election victory, and is also at least vaguely aware of how angry we are with him, and is going to attempt to mitigate that anger. The Daily Stormer officially endorsed Donald Trump for President days after his announcement speech, and the Daily Stormer was among the first (after Ann Coulter) to abandon support for him due to his inability to do literally any single thing he said he was going to do. If you look at the numbers he won by in swing states, it is clear that the Alt-Right swung the election. If you were able to calculate the effect that memes had (you can’t, but imagine ...
The Three Purposes of Russiagate
Post Date: 2019-04-24 10:30:12 by Ada

Russiagate has three purposes. One is to prevent President Trump from endangering the vast budget and power of the military/security complex by normalizing relations with Russia. Another, in the words of James Howard Kunstler, is “to conceal the criminal conduct of US government officials meddling in the 2016 election in collusion with the Hillary Clinton campaign,” by focusing all public and political attention on a hoax distraction. The third is to obstruct Trump’s campaign and distract him from his agenda when he won the election. Despite the inability of Mueller to find any evidence that Trump or Trump officials colluded with Russia to steal the US presidential ...

Trump Campaign Eyes Chances to Vie for States Lost in 2016 Sunday, 14 April 2019 06:32 AM President Donald Trump loves to recount how his 2016 campaign defied expectations to pierce the vaunted Democratic "blue wall." For 2020, he's looking to do one better. As his re-election campaign kicks into high gear, it's exploring opportunities to contest states he lost in 2016, aiming to keep divided Democrats on the defensive. Trump on Monday visits one of those states, Minnesota, where he lost to Hillary Clinton by fewer than 45,000 votes in 2016. The campaign also is targeting New Mexico, Nevada, and New Hampshire, all states where Trump fell short by under 100,000 ...

In previous parts of this review of Kushner, Inc. by Vicky Ward, we covered the history of the Kushner Crime Family and their attachment to Donald Trump’s presidential campaign. In this section, we will cover the way that Jared Kushner single-handedly ran the Trump transition team after pushing out Chris Christie, and the various crimes he committed during that process. When on November 8 at 2:29 AM, the Associated Press called Wisconsin for Trump and declared him the winner of the 2016 presidential election, Steve Bannon and Stephen Miller got to work on a victory speech. Bannon was getting revved up to write something “fire-breathing”—something that gave a ...

The building needed significant interior improvements and the basement resembled a horror movie scene when Beto sold it, the current property manager told TheDCNF. The new owners plan to “cash in” by making the complex “Beto-themed,” the property manager said. Beto and his campaign donor have offered different explanations for how the sale came to be.

In the previous installments of this multipart review of Kushner, Inc. by Vicky Ward, we looked at the history of the Kushner Crime Family. We are now caught up to 2015, when Donald Trump announced he was running for president. Initially, the Kushners didn’t believe there was any chance Trump was going to win, and were simply using the spotlight he was achieving as a candidate to promote themselves. Jared Kushner looked at it as an incredible “networking opportunity.” During the early days of the campaign, the Kushners attempted to secure funding for 666 Fifth Avenue from a Qatari billionaire friend of Trump based on the premise that Trump would not win (the Qatari ...

Jeanne Shaheen, a member of the Senate Appropriations Committee. Shaheen asked in a follow-up whether Barr believed the FBI spied on the Trump team. “You’re not suggesting, though, that spying occurred?” Shaheen asked. “I think spying did occur. ...

It’s not confirmed at time of writing, but it is all but confirmed. Bibi appears to have won. New York Post: Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu appeared to be heading to re-election on Wednesday local time, according to exit polls that show him edging out his primary competitor in the tight race, The Associated Press reported. Both Netanyahu and Benny Gantz, a former military chief of the Blue and White party, had declared victory in speeches Tuesday evening in front of crowds of their supporters as polls closed and results showed a neck-and-neck finish. But by early Wednesday morning, Netanyahu’s Likud Party appeared to be pulling far enough ahead to secure ...
The Curse of the Thinking Class

How might we account for the strange melding of neuroticism and dishonesty that has gripped America’s thinking class since the ascent of Donald Trump as an epically reviled figurehead on our ship of state? It all seems to come down to shame and failure. There is, for instance, the failure of America’s leading economic viziers to arrest the collapse of the middle class — and with it, the disintegration of families — that more than anything produced the 2016 election result. What is a bigger emergency: the destruction of all those towns, cities, and lives in flyover-land, or the S & P stock index going down twenty points? The choice made by the “experts” ...

The news network obtained a copy of the complaint prior to its Wednesday filing. The complaint claims Ocasio-Cortez and her campaign manager, Saikat Chakrabarti, oversaw a “shadowy web” of political actions committee that allowed them to raise more money than they could have legally.

The smoking gun linking George Soros to Mueller’s investigation just came to light There seems to be no left-wing scheme George Soros isn’t involved in. He funds countless left-wing causes – from Antifa to gun control groups – to the tune of billions. Now, the smoking gun linking him to Mueller’s investigation just came to light, and it is shocking. Mueller’s investigation is the biggest witch hunt in U.S. history. For two years it was operating with little to no oversight, and, despite media ramblings, was not able to find a shred of evidence of collusion. But that isn’t surprising to anybody who has been paying attention. The entire investigation ...
ItÂ’s Time To Reckon With Clinton Democrats Who Pushed Russiagate

Like the vast majority of the country, the Democratic Party establishment was in complete and utter shock when Donald Trump won the 2016 presidential election. Almost all of the most influential media pundits were convinced there was no way Hillary Clinton would lose. Democrats, especially those closely aligned with the Clintons, quickly turned to the theory that the Trump campaign engaged in conspiracy or coordination with officials of the Russian government as the best explanation for dealing with the shock of the moment. They wielded this theory in order to unify and mobilize opposition to Trump. Now, Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation has concluded. Mueller was ...

An authoritarian at home, duplicitous abroad, he is no friend nor ally of the U.S. ISTANBUL – A couple weeks ago I visited Turkey’s largest city, cosmopolitan Istanbul. Pictures of President Recep Tayyip Erdogan promoting his party’s candidate for mayor, former prime minister Binali Yildirim, dominated the cityscape and vastly outnumbered those for Ekrem Imamoglu, the opposition Republican People’s Party’s standard-bearer. Few observers thought the latter had much of a chance. Yet after the polls closed on Sunday, Imamoglu had narrowly triumphed. Assuming the ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP) does not steal the election—it’s contesting the ...

Bernie Sanders' immense fundraising haul reflects a resilient movement Evan Halper and Janet Hook, Los Angeles Times on Apr 2, 2019 WASHINGTON -- Bernie Sanders put to rest any suggestion that the movement behind him has faded since his first run for president as his campaign team announced Tuesday that he had raised an immense amount of cash from a huge number of donors. Sanders' campaign collected $18.2 million from 525,000 donors – most of them under age 39 – in the first quarter of 2019, campaign officials said. The intimidating show of financial force will likely position Sanders to compete aggressively in every key state, giving him more resources than most of ...
