In this episode, I address the astounding new information surfacing about John Brennan and Barack Obama’s role in the biggest political spying scandal in American history.

Former secretary of defense Jim Mattis told aides he would rather 'swallow acid' than allow Trump to throw a $50million 'Victory Parade', and said the president's summit with Putin was a display of the White House seeking 'instant gratification', a new book reveals. Mattis, who was known as 'Mad Dog' during his career in the military, resigned in December 2018 following Trump's decision to withdraw US troops from Syria. The defense chief's former speechwriter Guy Snodgrass has detailed his clashes with the president in new book, Holding The Line: Inside Trump's Pentagon With Secretary Mattis, obtained by DailyMail.com ahead of...

A controversial theory that suggests an extraterrestrial body crashing to Earth almost 13,000 years ago caused the extinction of many large animals and a probable population decline in early humans is gaining traction from research sites around the world. The Younger Dryas Impact Hypothesis, controversial from the time it was presented in 2007, proposes that an asteroid or comet hit the Earth about 12,800 years ago causing a period of extreme cooling that contributed to extinctions of more than 35 species of megafauna including giant sloths, sabre-tooth cats, mastodons and mammoths. It also coincides with a serious decline in early...

Rep. Elijah Cummings’s funeral Friday, marked by speeches from Barack Obama, the Clintons, and Cummings’s family, was as much a heartfelt celebration of a man who dedicated his life to public service as it was an indictment of President Donald Trump’s character in office. In his last months, Cummings, who chaired the powerful House Committee on Oversight and Reform — one of the committees carrying out the impeachment inquiry into Trump —became the subject of Trump’s ire. Trump called Cummings a “brutal bully” in July and derided the Congress member’s Baltimore district as the “worst in the USA,” a “rat...

Clinton family associate Sidney Blumenthal has made legal threats to the publisher of a forthcoming book featuring allegations against Democrats in connection with the Russia investigation in an attempt to stop publication, Fox News has learned. A source familiar with the matter told Fox News that Blumenthal claimed the book – “The Plot Against the President: The True Story of How Congressman Devin Nunes Uncovered the Biggest Political Scandal in U.S. History,” by Lee Smith – was defamatory. “Blumenthal tried to stop it from being published,” the source told Fox News, saying the Hillary Clinton confidant sent threatening letters to...

The Media is a Threat to America And it’s destroying the country. Fri Oct 25, 2019 Daniel Greenfield 26 Daniel Greenfield, a Shillman Journalism Fellow at the Freedom Center, is an investigative journalist and writer focusing on the radical Left and Islamic terrorism. It’s always bad news for the media. Verizon is looking to dump the Huffington Post. It’s the latest bad news for the industry in a year that has already seen over 7,200 job cuts across the media spectrum from digital to old-fashioned print. Why should the rest of the country care about what’s happening to the media...

If you don’t believe the Deep State Coup Cabal is getting very nervous right now, you’re not paying close enough attention. – The plotters are very, very nervous indeed, and for good reason. Remember that even the Deep State mouth organ New York Time reported on Saturday that bad actors like John Brennan, James Comey and James Clapper were lawyering up in anticipation of the Horowitz report on FISA abuse and the ongoing investigation into the origins of Spygate by Attorney General William Barr and U.S. Attorney John Durham. The contrast between a couple of TV interviews over the last...

Attorneys for former national security adviser John Bolton are in touch with House committee staffers about the possibility of his testifying in Democrats' impeachment inquiry into President Trump, NBC News and CNN reported Friday. Bolton, whom Trump fired last month, has broken with the president on multiple foreign policy issues, and previous House witnesses have described him as sharply critical of Trump's dealings with Ukraine, which are at the center of the inquiry. Former Trump aide Fiona Hill reportedly testified before the House panels last week that Bolton described Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani as a "hand grenade who's going to...

MICROSOFT HAS HAD A MIXED MONTH in terms of market share, as we dive into the murky world of Netmarketshare's figures for September. Windows 10 is the big winner (as you'd hope). In terms of desktop/laptop users, it's now comfortably over the halfway line, with 52.38 per cent of the market (+1.39). With less than four months until it reaches end of life, Windows 7 still remains a major force, though it continues to drop. It now stands at 28.17 (-2.17). Lesser versions of Windows continue to chug along - Windows 8.x now stands at 4.1 per cent (-0.73) of...

Federal Judge Beryl Howell, an Obama appointee on Friday sided with House Democrats granting them access to the secret grand jury information and underlying intelligence materials in Robert Mueller’s report. Robert Mueller’s garbage ‘Trump-Russia’ report was released in the Spring and up until Friday, the grand jury material was redacted. Judge Howell wrote a 75-page memorandum opinion granting the House Democrats access to the secret grand jury material because the “Speaker of the House has announced an official impeachment inquiry.” The corrupt Obama judge also cited White House Counsel Pat Cipollone’s letter in her decision to grant the House access...

With reports that U.S. Attorney John Durham’s probe into potential FBI and Justice Department misconduct in launching the Russia investigation has been elevated to a criminal inquiry, enabling Durham to subpoena witnesses and file charges, there is a new effort afoot to discredit Attorney General William Barr. Two key Democrats leading the impeachment inquisition against President Donald Trump, Rep. Jerry Nadler, D-N.Y., chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, and Rep. Adam Schiff, chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, responded by slamming Barr, who appointed Durham, as a “vehicle for Trump’s political revenge.” “These reports, if true, raise profound new concerns...

The first votes of the 2020 presidential election are just 100 days away, when Iowans kick off their first-in-the-nation caucus on Feb. 3. Democrats in the state are eager to unseat President Trump, but voters are split on which candidate can make that happen. On a recent Thursday night, supporters of Sen. Elizabeth Warren packed into a split-level house in suburban Dubuque, Iowa, to network and get tips from local campaign organizers on canvassing voters. Rachel Guhin was among them. The 25-year-old works at a publishing company in Dubuque. She says she's volunteering for the campaign because she thinks Warren...

FROM ME: Thank the Trump Economy for Puerto Rico's success, which is two-fold: More money for mainland citizens to travel to the island, and the fast-tracking of enterprise zones thanks to the SBA, along with the release of regulations which made running a business impossible pre-Trump. PRESIDENT TRUMP NEEDS TO SEIZE THIS INFORMATION AND DRIVE THE POINT THAT PUERTO RICO'S ECONOMIC SUCCESS IS BECAUSE OF TRUMP ECONOMIC POLICIES! DAVID BEGNAUD, CBS NEWS (posted today, 10/26/19): Great News out of Puerto Rico: 55% increase in tourism demand on the island.

(CNSNews.com) – Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton honored Rep. Elijah Cummings (D-Md.) at his funeral in Baltimore, Md., Friday by saying that “he stood up against corrupt leadership of King Ahab and Queen Jezebel.” Clinton began her speech saying it was “no coincidence” that Cummings “shared a name with an Old Testament prophet whose name meant in Hebrew, ‘the Lord is my God,’ and who used the power and the wisdom that God gave him to uphold the moral law that all people are subject to and because of all people are equal.”

Graham and McConnell introduced a resolution Thursday night to condemn House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s (D-CA) secretive impeachment inquiry proceedings...50 cosponsors across the Senate Republican conference;...Only Sens. Susan Collins (R-ME), Lisa Murkowski (R-AK), and Mitt Romney (R-UT) have yet to cosponsor the bill.

BREAKING: Former FBI general counsel James Baker has reportedly ‘flipped’ and is now cooperating with the Barr-Durham investigation into the origins of the Russia investigation - @OANN

The number of co-sponsors of Graham’s impeachment resolution as of 6 p.m. ET last night was 44, meaning that nine Senate Republicans were still holding out. But two of those holdouts, Rob Portman and Dan Sullivan, made no sense. They’re each from red states. They’d have nothing to gain and everything to lose by crossing Trump on impeachment matters (especially Sullivan, who’s up for reelection next fall). Sure enough, Graham himself reported soon after on his Twitter feed that both senators had joined his cause. That left just seven holdouts — but all seven *could* potentially be hard for...
