  • The Nunes memo is a dud

    Rep. Devin Nunes’s infamous memo — the document numerous House Republicans claimed would demonstrate fundamental anti-Trump corruption at the FBI — was released early Friday afternoon. The entire thing is three and a half pages and only takes a few minutes to read closely and carefully. After doing that, there is only one conclusion a fair reader could draw: There is absolutely nothing here. There is no proof in the memo that the FBI is biased against Trump, no proof of abuse of surveillance powers by the FBI, and no proof that the investigation into the Trump campaign’s ties to...

    Politico ^ | February 2nd, 2018 | By DARREN SAMUELSOHN
    Special counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia investigation has gathered enough steam that some lawyers representing key Donald Trump associates are considering the possibility of a historic first: an indictment against a sitting president. While many legal experts contend that Mueller lacks the standing to bring criminal charges against Trump, at least two attorneys working with clients swept up in the Russia probe told POLITICO they consider it possible that Mueller could indict the president for obstruction of justice. Neither attorney claimed to have specific knowledge of Mueller’s plans. Both based their opinions on their understanding of the law; one also cited...
  • Bret Baier just said he's hearing that the FISA Memo might be released tomorrow (Vanity)

    This is just a "for what's it's worth" post/vanity. I seldom watch Bret Baier but tonight I am doing so because I know what Charles Paine (my usual) is going to say about last night.But Bret was okay tonight.In fact, the reason for this vanity is that Bret said he has intelligence that the "memo" will be released tomorrow.To me, that means the Catherine Herridge's sources (she's among the top 3 reporters at Fox) tell her that tomorrow is the day.

    It looks like the scene from a military action movie: A helicopter flies low, buzzing just feet above the ground. Two men in full gear lean out the side, taking aim at fleeing targets. They line up the sights and pull the trigger, then leap off the helicopter to intercept their foe. But this isn’t a battle, and their targets don’t shoot back. Amazing video from Arizona shows this scene playing out in real life, with a few details you might not expect: The men in the helicopter are from the Game and Fish Department, and they’re using special net...
  • Second Trump-Russia dossier being assessed by FBI (written by Clinton hack Cody Shearer)

    The Guardian ^ | Jan 30, 2018
    The FBI inquiry into alleged Russian collusion in the 2016 US presidential election has been given a second memo that independently set out many of the same allegations made in a dossier by Christopher Steele, the British former spy. The second memo was written by Cody Shearer, a controversial political activist and former journalist who was close to the Clinton White House in the 1990s. Advertisement Unlike Steele, Shearer does not have a background in espionage, and his memo was initially viewed with scepticism, not least because he had shared it with select media organisations before the election. However, the...

    The noose around the necks of Obama and Hillary continues to tighten with each passing day for their crimes with the Uranium One scandal where indictments are already coming down. Now in a bizarre twist, Attorney General Jeff Sessions is getting implicated in the whole deal with new evidence proving that he’s been working with Hillary and Obama this entire time to sweep the scandal under the rug. Ever since Trump got into office one year ago, he’s had no shortage of traitors constantly trying to sabotage his presidency. While many of us have wondered for quite some time just...

  • Sen. Tammy Duckworth, who lost her legs in Iraq, calls Trump ‘a five-deferment draft dodger’

    01/22/2018 11:06:22 PM PST · by Eleutheria5 · 82 replies
    In a Senate-floor speech Saturday, Sen. Tammy Duckworth (D-Ill.) blasted President Trump as a “five-deferment draft dodger” and accused him of trying to bait North Korea into a war, putting both the military and the national security of the United States at risk. It was a moment of fire for Duckworth, a veteran who lost both of her legs in 2004 while serving in the Iraq War, and who has advocated for military and disability issues since she was elected to national public office in 2012. Duckworth said Saturday her speech was prompted by a tweet Trump had posted Saturday...

    More and more, Republicans look to foreign operatives to push the party's domestic messaging. Poll after poll shows Americans blame Republicans for shutting down the federal government. But if the GOP is looking for any consolation, they at least appear to have Russian bots on their side. Russian-influenced Twitter accounts have gone all in trying to help Republicans and the White House promote the #SchumerShutdown hashtag in a desperate attempt to shift the blame for the shutdown to Democrats.

    FOUR workers employed by a world famous haggis firm have been sacked just days before Burns Night following a blunder on the factory floor. Disciplinary action was taken against the employees after a production error at Macsween’s factory in Loanhead led operations to be temporarily suspended. Bosses at the firm said a potential production error - involved the wrong type of meat being taken out from a store room and on to the factory floor - was picked up during stringent checks before any products could be affected. But Mick Malone, who joined the company just days previously and was...

    President Trump may be having an extramarital affair in the White House, according to the latest bombshell claim from “Fire and Fury” author Michael Wolff. Wolff said Friday on HBO’s “Real Time with Bill Maher” that he was “absolutely sure” of such a tryst, but acknowledged that he lacked “ultimate proof.” “I didn’t have the blue dress,” Wolff told Maher, referring to the key piece of evidence from Bill Clinton’s notorious Oval Office dalliance with Monica Lewinsky. The author said he’d even planted a clue in his controversial best-seller. “You’ll know it,” he said. “Now that I’ve told you, when...

The company on Friday also disclosed thousands of accounts that it said were associated with the Kremlin-linked troll farm, the Internet Research Agency (IRA) and the Russian government, adding to numbers that it released to Congress in October.

    Back in 2011, porn star Stormy Daniels told In Touch magazine about her alleged year-long affair with Donald Trump. In Touch didn’t publish the story at the time but today they published it in their print edition and posted excerpts from it online: It all started at the American Century celebrity golf tournament in July 2006. “[Trump] was introduced to everybody. He kept looking at me and then we ended up riding to another hole on the same golf cart together,” Stormy recalled, adding that the business mogul later came to the gift lounge her adult-film company, Wicked Pictures,...
