Yes, indeed!
I picked a good day to stay home from work. Watched FoxNews for a few minutes--the vigil by the bus. Laughed so hard it brought tears to my eyes.
I turned to CNN for a couple of minutes, and even some of them were having trouble keeping a straight face.
Pelosi is so out of her league.
Broom to comfy, told her to fly commercial! hahahahahahaha
All of a sudden hes Nostradamus, lol
thanx. hopin it was the other way around.
POTUS is getting beat up for releasing “confidential” info regarding trip & itinerary...never mentioning that when POTUS releases info, it’s no longer “confidential”.
Bruce Ohr Testimony Undercuts Adam Schiff’s Defense Of FBI
Justice Department official Bruce Ohr’s testimony about his meetings with FBI officials regarding dossier author Christopher Steele severely undercuts claims made in 2018 by California Rep. Adam Schiff and his fellow Democrats on the House Intelligence Committee.
Ohr told lawmakers Aug. 28, 2018, he briefed top FBI officials Andrew McCabe and Lisa Page in early August 2016, just days after he met with Steele, a former British spy who was investigating then-candidate Donald Trump.
Ohr testified he told McCabe and Page about his interactions with Steele, who was working at the time for Fusion GPS, a Democrat-funded opposition research firm.
The FBI relied heavily on Steele’s unverified dossier to obtain Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) warrants against former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page.
Republicans have focused on the Ohrs’ link to the dossier and Steele.
In a memo dated Feb. 2, 2018, House Intelligence Republicans, led by then-Chairman Devin Nunes, asserted the FBI filed to disclose in their FISA applications Ohr’s wife, Nellie, worked for Fusion GPS. They also noted in the so-called Nunes memo that the FISA applications do not reveal Steele’s anti-Trump bias. Ohr claimed Steele told him during a meeting Sept. 23, 2016, he was “desperate” that Trump not win election.
Ohr testified he had shared details of his contacts with Steele with the FBI prior to the election.
In addition to the meeting in early August 2016, Ohr met in late September 2016 or early the next month with Page, FBI counterintelligence deputy chief Peter Strzok, and Justice Department officials Bruce Swartz, Zainab Ahmad and Andrew Weissmann. Ahmad and Weissmann are currently working on the special counsel’s investigation.
The FBI obtained its first FISA against Page on Oct. 21, 2016, weeks after that meeting.
Ohr’s testimony conflicts with House Intelligence Democrats’ claim in a memo released Feb. 24, 2018, that served as a rebuttal to the Nunes memo.
That document sought to defend the FBI’s handling of the Steele dossier and its applications for the first FISA warrant.
Democrats asserted Ohr did not meet with the FBI until after the 2016 election and thus had no opportunity to tell the FBI his wife worked for Fusion GPS. He was also unable to relay that Steele had communicated anti-Trump bias to him.
“[Republicans] mischaracterize[s] Bruce Ohr’s role, overstates the significance of his interactions with Steele, and misleads about the timeframe of Ohr’s communication with the FBI,” the so-called Schiff memo reads.
Democrats claimed only in “late November 2016” Ohr informed the FBI of “his prior professional relationship with Steele and information that Steele shared with him.”
“This occurred weeks after the election and more than a month after the Court approved the initial FISA application,” reads the memo, which included the emphasis on “after.”
“The Majority’s reference to Bruce Ohr is misleading,” Democrats asserted.
The revelations in Ohr’s testimony create a bit of a dilemma for Schiff, who is chairman of the House Intelligence panel.
In a Feb. 6, 2018, interview with The Atlantic, Schiff remarked on “how flawed the Nunes memo is.”

Someone should pass out DEPENDS to them, just for effect. LOLOL.
But, they can't take nearly as much bling with them. Whatever they can stuff into a suitcase or two, providing TSA doesn't find the contents offensive. :)
Likely fake news. POTUS already communicated that Pelousy could fly commercial if she wanted to go on that trip.

Actually, “Diplomatic pouch” has evolved to include whatever size containers the ambassador decrees it to include—often cargo containers. IIRC.
I vote to enlist her in running back and forth between shooting factions with a white flag . . . as long as she has any capacity to run, at all.
No, no, no.
Not the derp chart.
The SOI chart.

I may have to change channels. I am watching Fox business. They only had a brief mention at the top of the hour with no discussion. LOL

Posting blind. CoDels is the term for the type of trip Pelosi was going to take. Just heard this on WSB radio. Their newsers are nearly unlistenable any more.
I vote w get her a segway and let her ride that till the battery runs out! THEN she can run.
So cool - one minute she snarls ‘I don’t care what they say’ about DHS, and the next minute, politically, the president responds screw you. Buh-bye. If you don’t want any, don’t start any.
