He picked sides and set himself up as "the controller" -- and he likely really believes this is appropriate, all the while claiming he is no J. Edgar Hoover. ROTFL. Total hack.
Watch the people who defend his character, Chris Christie being chief anmong them, this morning on ABC.
Hmm...
Did you read the rest of my post on that, or are you skimming? :-)
The purpose of the U.S. military is to make their woman weep and moan for the loss of their men. Destroy the enemy quickly, unmercifully, and completely.
Some lessons from history would serve the U.S. well. Romans put people to the cross, the Mongol herds killed everyone in the case where they did not submit and fought them instead.
More recently, and to the point of Bray's reference to the propaganda whores. In the 1970's we had the "killing fields" in southeast Asia. How quickly we forget.
The problem is investigating RICO rules of engagement are onerous. Lawyers getting arrested, legal documents confiscated, Money and assets frozen or seized, family members spuriously charged, friends become unindicted co-conspirators. Every trick in the book to break rich, powerful and influential crime bosses.
It’s obvious when you see Comey refer to Trump as a mob boss recently. They’re using Rico rules.
True...I bet he wants ILLEGALS to move to Mexico, Maine.
I recall hearing my esteemed senator Lindsey Graham from SC saying way back in 2013, that if we did not attack Syria it was very likely the Iranians would acquire nukes by 2014, bring them in by ship and destroy the Charleston port. I recall the port authorities were very displeased with his remarks.
while that may be interesting, when will he go to jail?
Actually, Israel took out Saddam’s nuclear plant many decades ago:

and Assad’s recently (March 2018):
On CBS an employee of the bombed out research building who worked there for 38 years claimed he didn’t do poisonous gas research there at all. Same thing heard on several other sites.

How a Pesticide Caused Mass Casualties in Khan Sheikhoun
The U.N. Commission report says it investigated claims by Russian and Syrian officials that a Syrian airstrike hit a “weapons depot” and having found them to lack credibility, determined that there are “reasonable grounds” to believe that the casualties were the result of a Syrian air force sarin attack. But the evidence now available leaves little doubt that both the initial Russian and Syrian government explanation and the local government-White Helmet explanations have deliberately obscured the real cause of the mass casualties
Eyewitness accounts of the airstrike, the revelations in Seymour Hersh’s article in Die Welt and other information about the building hit by a Syrian bomb, the geographic pattern of the casualties, the known characteristics of aluminum phosphide and the symptoms of the victims all indicate a very different explanation: A Syrian high explosive bomb hit supplies of aluminum phosphide stored in a building in the northeast area of Khan Sheikhoun, releasing a cloud of deadly phosphine gas, which caused the deaths and injuries.
Syrian and Russian government statements about the event have confused the issue by insisting that the Syrian airstrike took place at 11:30am, rather than before 7:00am. Russian Defense Ministry Spokesman Maj. Gen. Igor Konashenkov said the target was “near Khan Sheikhoun” rather than in the city itself. That was an obvious effort to conflate the early morning airstrike with a second airstrike later that morning on a complex run by the White Helmets civil defense organization east of Khan Sheikhoun, that included an underground medical facility as well as offices and storage areas.
Konashenkov described the target of the strike as a “terrorist warehouse” where bombs had been made that “contained toxic substances.” The spokesman said the alleged warehouse had stocked the same chemical weapons that had been used by rebels in Aleppo, and that the symptoms shown by Khan Sheikhoun victims in videos were the same as those exhibited by victims of chemical weapons in Aleppo.
But contrary to the official Syrian and Russian account, the main target of the airstrike was clearly not the complex east of Khan Sheikhoun, but a building in Khan Sheikhoun itself. Accounts from a number of eyewitnesses indicate that an airstrike hit a two-story building about 240 meters southwest of the crater the local authorities and activists claim had been left by the strike, as well as a second building another 100 meters southwest. Photographs in a report by activists belonging to NGOs who support the armed opposition show (pp. 34-35) what had been a two-story cinderblock building that was completely destroyed by the airstrike.
The U.N. Commission does not deny that a strike hit targets other than the crater but simply ignores the evidence that the northernmost of those two buildings was the source of the deaths and injuries. Eyewitness accounts confirmed, however, that the bomb that destroyed the building was also the source of a lethal toxic chemical cloud. A 14-year-old eyewitness told the New York Times she saw a bomb dropped on a building at that time in the morning create what she described as a yellow mushroom cloud that stung her eyes. Another witness said she heard a loud explosion and saw a yellow-orange cloud, and that her daughter inhaled the gas from that cloud and died very soon after from its effects.
It turns out that one of the alleged eyewitness cited by Human Rights Watch as having seen a bomb being dropped at the crater site was actually watching the bomb that destroyed that building. Ahmed al-Helou, a farmer who was on a hill at an unspecified distance east of the city, told Human Rights Watch he saw the bomb fall “in front of” the central bakery—meaning west of the bakery, which faces the main road—and that it created “yellowish smoke.” But as the Google Earth aerial view of the area of Khan Sheikhoun below shows, the central bakery is not east of the now infamous crater; it is about 50 meters south of it. The cinder block building demolished by the bomb, however, is about 200 meters west of the bakery, so the bakery would have been between al-Helou and the demolished building. He saw the same explosion and yellow smoke as the other two eyewitnesses.

im now wondering if this is what i missed,it would also leave validity to Claric feldmans evidence that the French confirmed the boming was done by the Syrians since it was.
Problem is it was a conventional bomb that hit the wrong target and wound up killing a lot of people but never was sarin or any other poison gas. This could be what happened.
McCabe is standing in line behind Comey, to tell his side of a
story. The media will continue to promote anyone who opposes
Trump.
Gen. Mattis stated that he saw conclusive evidence of Syrian use and Russian assistance in deploying chemical weapons.
Keyboard for life. I've had this one for five years, just keeps on truckin'.
I love the trackpoint since my right wrist and hand are screwed up with carpel tunnel, a result of mousing since 1973.
We here in Texas can do Maine one better. The No.2 man in the Senate, John Wayne McCornin (who in election ads tells up he is just like one of us), is one of the MAIN players in the latest Cromnibuss legislation. He must share the bedroom with that famous N.Y. senator Upchuck shmucker
Undeniable.
Yeah, a canister or rail car of chlorine or other toxic gas, and a stick of dynamite....we have plenty of antiFA and other left-wing terrorists both "foreign and domestic" who could pull this off....then blame it on Trump.
I agree RG.
Why did Assad gas those people? What did they do to him? I’ve yet to fill that this is clear.
Also, folks, Jeff Sessions.
I am done with him.
Do not come on this thread and tell me what a nice guy he is. There is nothing right about this guy.
I believe he was paid (or perhaps blackmailed) to follow Trump around like and adoring child.
“Go on. He’ll appoint you AG, we got it straight from him,” the Democrats told him. “And if you recuse yourself immediately after the appointment, we won’t reveal those pictures of you with that young boy.”
Or course I made the above up. But something ain’t right about Sessions and once I prayed that I was wrong.
Well I still pray that I am wrong but by me, Sessions is on the other side.
It’s very obvious Trump doesn’t like the guy.
Evidence of this laundry process is found in a significant “search query” result that was actually a mistake. The faulty intelligence mistake was the travel history of Michael Cohen, a long-time Trump lawyer. The FISA search turned up a Michael Cohen traveling to Prague. It was the wrong Michael Cohen. However, that mistaken result was passed on to Chris Steele and it made its way into the dossier. Absent of a FISA search, there’s no other way Christopher Steele could identify a mistaken “Michael Cohen” traveling to Prague from the Russian sources he claimed to have used for that specific point.
The Cohen mistake created a trail from Chris Steele to the FISA database. All of the unauthorized FISA-702 search queries, “To From”(16) and/or “About”(17), of the NSA/FBI database were returning results. Those results were “raw intelligence”
And now you know why Michael Cohen is suing Fusion-GPS and Buzzfeed. His lawsuit will force Fusion to outline where they got the fraudulent information. Within the discovery Cohen knows he’ll find the unlawful FISA-702 search story.
Jan 9, 2018--Trump lawyer Michael Cohen sues BuzzFeed for publishing Steele dossier
"Let me be totally clear that the allegations raised against me in the public square and raised largely by BuzzFeed, Fusion GPS and others in the press are based upon misinformation, unnamed or unverifiable sources," Cohen said. "Their actions are so malicious, despicable and reckless, one can only presume that their motives were intentional."
In the action, Cohen highlights several allegations in the dossier that he says are provably false. For example, the dossier claimed that Cohen's wife is Russian and that her father is a leading property developer in Russia, allowing Cohen to carry on a possibly criminal relationship with the Russian government.
The suit says Cohen's wife was born in Ukraine, immigrated to the United States more than 40 years ago and "has never been to Russia." Her father, it says, has been to Russia only once.
Cohen has denied that a Prague meeting occurred, saying that he has never been to the Czech Republic. In May 2017, Cohen provided a copy of his passport to BuzzFeed that showed it had been stamped for entry and exit to the United Kingdom and Italy.
Here are the references to Cohen in the Steele dossier: See pages 18-19.
You are very right about Jonah Goldberg, a very good writer but his anti-Trump sentiments have kept me from reading a single word he writes any more.
And his wife works for Haley?
Guy is a zero.
Yeah, he's a wack.
