[pookie18]

As usual, will only be watching Sunday Morning Futures with Maria...

[norwaypinesavage]

With Butt, butt, butt Wallass replaced by Martha MacCallum and Kellyanne on, FNS might just be watchable today. Unfortunately, Juan and Reed will still have to be muted.

[Russ]

Meet The Depressed is if full out anti-Trump mode today. Unwatchable...

[gogulls]

I remember when this thread was one of my must-reads. Sadly F Chuck/Steff Stephanopoulous/Dickinson/all of CNN have ruined that too. You knew Tim Russert was a Democrat but at least he was fair.

Three things that won’t be discussed anywhere:

Steele/Ohr connection
Antifa violence against press Saturday
Keith Ellison domestic abuse scandal

[Road Warrior ‘04]

KaSICK continues to be the go-to anti-Trumper. Go eat something you worthless POS!

[freedom1st]

I’m guessing most people won’t recognize the name Manigault Newman, who is appearing on Meet the Depressed.

[chiller]

Omarosa auditioning for a gig with NBC. She's 1/2 way there with some ill words about DjT, which is all that's required.

Please hire her.

Conversely, I saw Candice Owens sitting in on one of Fox's mid-day shows, actually serving as main host. What a beautiful person in all respects. A natural at TV/FOX, which sadly means she'll not be serving in public office. Big things head for Candace, however, perhaps more important than 1 congressional seat.

Tuesday date-8/7/18

Diane Feinstein has Chinese spy driver?

---------------

Of all things, Senator Diane Feinstein of California, Chairperson of the Foreign Intelligence Committee, HAS HAD A CHINESE SPY AS HER DRIVER FOR TEN YEARS!!!

Aw come on.

This guy was known about. Not even DiFi is that stupid.

The Clintons, indeed the Democrats in general, have been best buds with the Chinese for quite a while.

I used to work for a company known as OAO. One of our contracts was the Jet Propulsion Labratory in California.

The Chinese broke into that place, stole all the contents of the Xerox machine, and in general trashed the place.

Rumor has always been that this was all set up by the Clintons.

-------------------------------

Wednesday date-8/8/18

Early results of yesterday's congressional primaries.

-------------------

John James has won the Republican nomination in Michigan's U.S. Senate race.

With 29 percent of precincts reporting, initial results on Tuesday night showed James with 56.96 percent of the vote to opponent Sandy Pensler's 43.04 percent. The Associated Press called the race for James at 10:11 p.m.

James will go on to face incumbent Democrat Debbie Stabenow in the general election. Stabenow, who was unopposed in the Democratic primary, was first elected to represent Michigan in the U.S. Senate since 2000.

-------------------

Republican State Sen. Troy Balderson, 56, eked out a win in Tuesday’s down-to-the-wire special election to fill Ohio’s 12th congressional district after trailing Democrat Danny Lawyer much of the evening.

----------------------

Men named Ron Estes managed to win and lose the Republican primary in Kansas’ 4th Congressional District on Tuesday.

First-term Rep. Ron Estes faced an unusual race in the Wichita area, as he faced off against competitor Ron M. Estes. In the end, the incumbent (whose middle name is Gene) prevailed.

From

Looks like the Dems ran a candidate with a name that would confuse the voters.

---------------------------

The Kansas primary for Governor….below.

more results with 95% in.

Kris Kobach 121,203

Jeff Colyer 120,662

Kobach lead 541 votes

-------------------

It's 9 am in the morn here and I note that Fox and Friends is asserting that the Ohio winner has not yet been determined.

--------------------------------

Thursday Date-8/9/18

New Mexico nightmare

----------------------

11 kids and one dead three year old were found, abused and neglected, in a New Mexican house.

They were being trained to shoot up schools by some fine Christian fellow named "Siraj Ibn Wahhaj was conducting weapons training....”

Gotta love those Muslims, how they make themselves welcome.

----------------------

Seems Ohio found about 588 more votes for the Democrat.

Ah those Democrats. They always manage to find more uncounted votes don't they?

The lead between the Dem and Repub Balderson is now down to a little over 1,500 for the Repub.

But hey, there's more votes out there to be found!

---------------------------------

Friday date-8/10/18

We are to understand that Senator Diane Feinstein from California has been harboring a Chinese spy posing as her driver. This for some 20 years.

And they say Trump was colluding with the enemy?

Also, that guy training kids to shoot up schools is the son of a keynote speaker at President Obama's nominating convention.

The kids were dehydrated and hungry.

Fine, fine people, those friends of Obama.

------------------------------------

Saturday 8/11/18

The two Republican primary candidates are Gene Truonon and Rob Arlett. Both are running to replace Tom Carper, whose time it is to go for God's sake.

Truono was a registered Independent until this past year then he became Republican. He is married to another man.

Rob Arlett is a solida candidate, Delaware representative for the Trump candidacy. He has his own small business, has been married to the same woman for 29 years, is a solid Christian.

Truono worked for Pay Pal when it was fine 7.7 million dollars.

John Reilly is a former Chairperson of the Sussex GOP, he would represent the 5th Sussex council district to replace Rob Arlett is Carper finally gets thrown out.

I know both Arlett and Reilly, both good men. No I will not vote for a man married to another man.

Sorry, but someone in that marital situation does not represent my interest.

By the way, the Delaware primary Changed to 9/6 from 9/11 bcause of Rosh Hoshannah falling on 9/11-when the primary was originally scheduled.

Don't let the date change confuse you.

[FreedBird]

Kasich is probably resentful his friends didn’t receive jobs in the Trump administration. He is still licking his wounds from the 2016 Presidential election.

[MAGAthon]

very depressing...with a few exceptions.

[rodguy911]

Sort of a mixed bag this morning on the shows.As usual lots going on this week,thanks for the thread bud.

[rodguy911]

Just in case you are wondering what is going on in Iran and why you don’t hear a lot about it Thomas Wictor
has a brilliant take on it and its part of a new “war strategy” that is being employed everywhere by our potus.It’s simply brilliant.

https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1027795756218904576.html?utm_source=email&utm_medium=alert&utm_campaign=internal
14) I know that Iranians want to be free as soon as possible, but the Second Iranian Revolution must be done the right way.

All the potential enemies must be neutralized FIRST, so that we have no insurgency and no death squads.
(15) Iran will NOT BE OCCUPIED.

Therefore the Iranians must be IN AGREEMENT before the mullahs are overthrown.

If the mullahs are overthrown but still have armed supporters, it would be a disaster.
(16) Therefore Iranians must be strong.

You’ve ACTUALLY already won.

The mullahs WILL GO.

There’s no doubt.
(17) But my guess is that Iran’s secret allies are LISTENING TO IRANIANS.

The people who know best are Iranians.

So they will set the timetable.
(18) Have faith in your people.

IRANIANS will lead you to freedom...

[FreedBird]

Feinstein’s Chinese Fortune Cookie reads “ You receive a free pass since you have a D next to your name.” The D’s have greater numbers in the Fake News Business. It is Trump’s fault according to the media.

[rodguy911]

Here is more on Trumps new war strategy its priceless:

https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1027028463541080065.html?utm_source=email&utm_medium=alert&utm_campaign=internal

(20) Now we get into my prediction.

A prediction that has already come to pass.

The Third Revolution in Military Affairs (3RMA).
(21) Secretary of Defense James Mattis has always said that his job is to make the US armed forces into the most lethal in the world.

His nickname is “Mad Dog,” so I figured that this was hyperbole.

No.

He was serious.
(22) This is the Pentagon Website.

defense.gov
(23) Here is what the Pentagon did until January of 2018.

(24) And here is what the Pentagon does now.

(25) See, @realDonaldTrump fooled everyone again.

They thought he was going to create a massive CONVENTIONAL force that would fight and occupy.

No.
(26) We won't be occupying anyone again.

A “lethal Joint Force” will engage in what I call “precision obliteration.”

We did it to the Russians in Syria on February 7, 2018.
(27) A Russian assault battalion of 550 men armed with main battle tanks and heavy artillery attacked an American position at Deir Ezzor.

We had about 40 or so men there.
(28) The Russians took 100 percent casualties.

Between 200-300 killed, and between 200-300 wounded.

That is VERY HARD TO DO.

............................. Bottom line we do more with 30 or 40 soldiers that are highly trained and weaponized than with 4,000 troops who don't have the training or the weapons. We don't colonize anymore or take over territory.We get rid of all the bad guys and than work with locals to take over the area.Same as we are ding in Iran.It will work its already working,brilliant strategy.Do more with less,Trump is brilliant,who thought he would ever have the State dept. working with Defense,evidently that's all it took.
Chances are good you won't read about this anywhere else or view it on TV.
