Today’s Campaign Update (Because The Campaign Never Ends)
Tired of all this Winning yet? – Congressional Budget Office (CBO) economists now admit that the Trump tax cuts will more than pay for themselves. In a report released yesterday – and studiously ignored by the fake news media, mainly because none of the CBO economists look like a porn star – the CBO now admits it vastly underestimated the tax cuts’ impact on economic growth, estimating that they will raise such growth by a full percentage point.
None of this is surprising, given that the CBO’s method requires them to use a “static” analysis, which does not allow them to take the economy-stimulating impacts of tax cuts into account. The reality is that even CBO’s new analysis is likely to be extremely conservative due to that fact.
So all those Democrat/fake news media talking points about how the tax cuts are going to explode the deficit? Just more lies. But you already knew that.
Democrats in Action. – Mike Pompeo’s senate confirmation hearing to become our next Secretary of State began on Thursday, and lunatic New Jersey Senator Corey Booker zeroed in like a laser on the crucial foreign policy issue of the day: During his allotted 5 minutes of time, Booker asked Pompeo not once, not twice, but three times about his views on…wait for it…oh, you gotta wait for this one…gay sex! Yes, the very ambitious Mr. Booker, who plans to pursue the Democrat nomination for the presidency in 2020, thinks the most important thing he and the American people need to know about the guy who will likely become the nation’s chief diplomat is what he thinks about what gay people do in the privacy of their own bedrooms.
Somehow, I don’t think that particular issue is likely to come up during the upcoming negotiations with the Crazy Little Fat Guy in North Korea. Just a guess.
Can’t they just secede from the union instead? That would be much better. – The London Telegraph reports that activists in California have now moved a step closer to carving the Golden State up into three smaller states, thanks to the efforts of Hotmail founder Tim Draper. Draper’s funding helped ensure that a petition effort was able to collect 600,000 signatures from California residents in favor of holding a referendum on the matter, far more than the needed 364,000, which represents approximately 1% of California’s current population.
Those of you who are worried about the prospect of adding 4 additional Californians along the lines of San Fran Nan, Maxine Waters, Dianne Feinstein or Kamala Harris to the U.S. senate can breathe easy, since, even if this referendum should succeed, it would require super-majority approval in both houses of congress to go into effect, and that isn’t going to happen. It’s still fun to watch, though.
James Comey’s long-anticipated book hit the shelves on Thursday, and boy is it a doozy. In the book, the bi-polar drama queen former ex-FBI Director and current Twitter savant says that President Trump is “untethered to the truth,” and acts like a mob boss.
It is fair to point out that this is the very same James Comey whose leadership turned the FBI into a rogue, outlaw organization, an organization that ignored its mandated duties in order to coordinate an effort to steal an election and, having failed at that, reverse its outcome. This is the same James Comey who led a completely phony “investigation” into the Clinton email scandal, the same James Comey who wrote a memo exonerating the Pantsuit Princess of all charges four months before he had bothered to even interview her or any of her chief assistants.
This is the same James Comey who has committed perjury multiple times before congressional committees, the same James Comey who most likely ordered Andrew McCabe to forge his notes from his interview of General James Flynn, the same James Comey who we know leaked classified information to the New York Times and stole government property on his way out the door when he was fired.
In other words, were James Comey a witness to a murder, the prosecution’s lawyers would never call him to the stand to testify, because the defense lawyers would rip him to shreds and leave him crying like a little, 6’8″ tall girl.
I’ve often pointed out that the Clintons’ favorite political tactic is projection, i.e., whenever they’re guilty of some bad act, they deflect attention by accusing their opponents of exactly the same bad behavior. Mr. Comey’s book demonstrates that he learned a lot from the Clintons while conducting his sham investigation.
Naturally, the first televised interview this deluded paragon of virtue will conduct about the book is with ABC’s fake host George Stephanopolous, who spent a decade serving as a toady for Bill and Hillary Clinton. ABC’s promo ad for the interview shows Georgie tossing out a series of predictably softball questions to an apparently mute Comey. If you play a drinking game during the interview in which you take a shot of tequila every time Comey is asked a tough question, you will end the night completely sober. Because that’s what the fake news media does.
Just another day in fake news media and demented Democrats America.
That is all.

Today’s news moves at a faster pace than ever. Whatfinger.com is my go-to source for keeping up with all the latest events in real time.
Comey has more than a few screws loose.
Why hasn’t this 7 feet of leaking lower intestine been arrested for crimes he has stipulated to committing, and we all saw - in real time - during Congressional testimony? Raid his friend-turned-attorney’s office!
Comey was very loyal - to Obama- and so was most of the FBI. He didn’t like Hillary or Trump but exonerated Hilliary in order to protect Obama’s legacy.
He and the deep state are still working for Obama!
Just to clarify, on the California thing. The additional 4 Senators would probably be Republicans. 50 miles in from the coast, this state gets real red.

I’m ready for my close up
MSM.
Washed-out Mueller CANT SEEM TO FIND what is really out there. He’s like a one-eyed prospector who knows “there’s gold in them thar hills,” but Mueller keeps coming up dry with every jab of his pick-axe.
The following investigations would yield paydirt.....(but Mueller knows his handlers, power-stricken Democrats, would scream bloody murder):
(hat tip VDH)
In his search for instances of lying, Mueller might re-examine the false testimonies given to investigators by McCabe and by Clinton aides Cheryl Mills and Huma Abedin.
In his search for Russian collusion, Mueller might also investigate Steele, Glenn Simpson of Fusion GPS and the Clinton campaign. All used Russian sources to leak unproven gossip and smears to the press in an effort to warp the 2016 election.
In his search for obstruction of justice, Mueller might also investigate whether top DOJ and FBI officials deliberately misled the FISA Court before and during after the 2016 election cycle by withholding evidence that the Steele dossier was flawed. Did Justice Department officials inform the FISA Court that Steele’s dossier was hired research paid for by the Clinton campaign? Did they tell the court that the FBI had stopped using Steele as a source for purportedly leaking information to the media? Did they tell the court that Comey was on record as saying the Steele dossier might not have been credible?
In his search for felonious behavior concerning the leaking of classified documents, Mueller might determine:
1) Whether the memos regarding presidential conversations that Comey leaked to the press were classified;
2) Whether former top national security and intelligence officials — among them John Brennan, James Clapper, Samantha Power, Ben Rhodes and Susan Rice — requested that the redacted names of surveilled Americans be unmasked, and whether officials then illegally leaked those names to the media;
3) Whether FBI officials such as Comey and McCabe leaked confidential findings from their investigations to the press during the 2016 campaign and lied to investigators about it.
Heck, why leave all the good stuff for Mueller? Trump does have a DOJ, doesnt he (snicker)?
The proposed new map of the three Californias guarantees three ultra-liberal states, with the middle class conservatives divided and condemned to third-class status.
California with six, guaranteed ultra-liberal senators, would kill the USA.
The USA has to decide whether or not it is worthwhile to keep California in the Union. If yes, then it needs to be converted into a Territory until a fair and working government can be established. If no, they it should be invited to leave the union, sans any vital military installations, such as the San Diego Naval Base, and the surrounding military installations and the land between. Make it the Territory of San Diego and include the Fort Irwin and Mojave Desert to the Arizona Border.
No, the way it is divided up, San Francisco and Sacramento are in “NorCal”, and LA and San Diego are in “SoCal”. These boat anchors would nullify the Conservatives in the inland areas.
Media-fed Moment
After Trump won the media went into soap opera writhing truth gets trashed.
Comey, Mueller, corrupt new media etc etc as Keefer

Yes, I saw that and agree. I was thinking more like the entire coast as one and the interior as 2 states. I live in heart of the State of Jefferson. It’s fun to think about, but it will not happen in my lifetime.
