Trump warned democrats if they kept going after him he would consider it “presidential harrassment” and he would hit back by declassifying everything

Can’t happen soon enough for me. Thank you!
Scott Foval needs to hang.
I have read everything by Tom Wolfe. He wrote a book called Back to Blood that discusses the modern art world in some great detail.

The Trump Doctrine
By Richard Fernandez
FTA:
The political left was unprepared for the possibility that Trump would not run true to their stereotype. The Gulf of Oman was already being compared to the Gulf of Tonkin. “From the U.S.S. Maine in Havana Harbor in 1898 to the U.S.S. Maddox in the Gulf of Tonkin in 1964, maritime incidents, shrouded in the fog of uncertainty, have lured the United States into wars on foreign shoals.” Members of Congress had already geared up in anticipation to block the war that was sure to come. “As the prospect of a confrontation with Iran continues to rise, an increasing number of members of Congress have a new objective: ensuring President Trump does not launch a war without their approval.”
But he didn’t bomb anything biological.
Even though the Washington Post sources called the strike “a long-in-the-making cyberattack that took down Iranian missile control computers” it still caught conventional wisdom by surprise. Just as the Battle of the Coral Sea was the first naval engagement conducted beyond the visual range of opposing fleets the recent exchange of strikes marks the first public battle between two nations in which only automata died. Pundits just didn’t know what to make of it.
...
Standard responses have been disoriented by this unfamiliar nonkinetic type of conflict. For example “Trump was asked by a reporter what, if any, exit strategy he may have if he decides to attack Iran in response to any action that may warrant it from the U.S. military. Trump responded that he wasn’t thinking about any exit strategy because he didn’t believe he needed one.”
...
Welcome to the world where open warfare has been abolished and secret warfare never ends.
It amuses me that some people think humanity has more impact than a star.
Global cooling is what actually happening now. There will be some crop failures and people will move south. You will be able to ice skate on the Thames!
:: I’m wondering why Eric Trump didn’t press charges? ::
Maybe because we are a free people to travel where we desire and eat in any restaurant we want? Maybe Eric wants to re-enforce that and, at the same time, point out that the Dhimmicrats STILL practice Jim Crow laws.
Tyrannical fascists control the comings and goings of the selected enemy group. Just ask the descendants of the European (ethnic) Jews.
Can he declassify the congressional “naughty acts” pay-off fund?

Live: Attorney General Barr speaks at the Attorneys’ National Conference
While mildly amusing, I have always considered it to be the pinnacle of vanity to think we can change the weather. But from the dims, I'm not surprised...
Somebody posted that here first I think.
Lol AG Barr plays bagpipes and makes joke about spying
And that was just in the first 2 minutes.
Off-topic - slight update on my granddaughter - today my she meets with an ophthalmologist whose specialty is neurology issues with eyes, and then back with the referring doc who is also in that Bham office. Please continue to pray. I do appreciate all of your prayers even though I may not get to respond. ((hugs)
Oh the scan the optic nerve was inflamed.
Thanks for the update. Continued prayers her way.

So who used this gambit first ?

Interdasting, given your discussion here.
There are no coincidences.
I was thinking about that - what if?? What if the islamic government in Iran were overthrown, and the previous style government with something better for the people were instituted? What if?? What if we don't have to worry about Iran anymore? What if we don't have to worry about N Korea anymore? I have believed Trump was dismantling the deep state, but wow!
