I stopped second guessing the potus some time ago. That being said I’m still not tired of WINNING!!
Yeah...and 4 days ago spoke with a group of Pasters
Here is the best (unreported) video
With the support (or lack of) from Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell, the only benefit America has received from Republican majorities has been judge appointments. Ryan in particular has been a drag on Making America Great Again.
I just had heuvos rancheros at a hole in the wall and dined with some Mexican immigrants, immigrants not “illegal” immigrants.
Glad you know a dolphin from a porpoise :)
President Trump met with inner city pastors from around the nation to discuss his administration’s efforts at changing the prison system and other criminal justice issues including prisoner re-entry, rehabilitation and workforce training programs.
My monitor goes fuzzy watching this video.
A wide-ranging study of broadcast news coverage of President Trump in the first four months of the year reveals that it was 90 percent negative — just as it was throughout 2017.
But the broadcasters may be losing their battle.
“The media get trumped: president’s polls improve despite 90 percent negative coverage,” said a new analysis of coverage released Tuesday.
“The liberal media’s war against President Trump was as fierce as ever during the first four months of 2018, but the onslaught appears to be for naught: In the face of massive and hostile coverage from ABC, CBS and NBC, Trump’s overall job approval rating actually rose, from 37 percent in mid-December to roughly 43 percent at the end of April,” writes Rich Noyes, a senior analyst for the Media Research Center.
The organization studied all broadcast evening news coverage of the President from Jan. 1 through April 30, and found 90 percent of the evaluative comments about Mr. Trump were negative — which is just what the organization documented during the entire twelve months of 2017.
This time, the group examined all 1,065 network evening news stories about Mr. Trump and top members of his administration during the first four months of this year.
“The coverage totaled a whopping 1,774 minutes, or roughly one-third of all evening news airtime,” Mr. Noyes said.
Some topics drew more negative responses than others during the study period.
The analysts found that 98 percent of the coverage of controversies such as the Russian collusion investigation, for example, were negative. On policy issues, 96 percent of the stories on gun control were negative, whereas broadcasters lightened up on Mr. Trump and the economy. Seven out of 10 of those stories were negative.
“There’s no precedent for a president receiving such a sustained level of negative press over such a long period of time,” Mr. Noyes said. “The fact that the public has become more favorable towards the president in this environment is the latest sign that the media watchdog’s bite isn’t as menacing as their bark suggests.”
Are these the guys that precede the wallpaper hangers?
Once they declare it true the rest doesn't matter. Eventually, everything from 911 to Vegas to the plane shot out of the air off NYC,TWA 800, will become lies. It's only a matter of how long it takes.Disinformation is the name of the game and its played by the best: "the company."
TWA 800 being shot down was one of the best the cia has done.FBI had hundreds of eye witnesses that saw the missile hit the plane. But, only a few that saw it differently. Guess who they used for NTSB to claim it was an exploding fuel tank.
The cabal is alive and well although under attack, finally.
Great fish both the catch and eat.
LOL it’s a big problem down here tourists don’t have a clue.
Clint Watts...guest on MTP, Foreign Relations poo-bah makes a good point about “perceived” election conspiracies: Russians (or anyone) only has to hack one of the 50 voter data bases to create the perception that the entire election is corrupted. Hackers don’t even need to access data bases, but simply be found to be trying to gain access.
And this is how Dems will destroy election integrity for the foreseeable future and use it to their advantage....kinda’ reminds me of how Osama bin Laden ruined air travel in the US...likely forever. Once spoiled, it’s neigh impossible to get it back.
Good insights. So true in all regards....
Too funny....sorry I spelt it wrong...need more coffee.
happens next saturday on Duval street dozens of vendors and lots of crawfish to eat,as good as it gets.!!
That is quite the rogues gallery of Trump haters.
Poor thing...somebody stole its claws.
Just jivin ya.
Got some fresh perked right here. You’ll like it.
Our side was off their game all morning... Maybe something's going on we don't know about.
Is Mueller Charging Manafort for ‘Crimes’ He Also May Have Committed for His Work with Ukraine?
Corrupt Cop Robert Mueller is charging President Trump’s short time Campaign Manager Paul Manafort for “crimes” that it appears Mueller himself may have committed as well.
Internet sleuth D. Manny uncovered possible crimes related to Ukrainians and the Mueller investigation but the individual who should be indicted may be the corrupt cop Robert Mueller himself. In the article entitled “Did Bob Mueller Monetarily Benefit from Paul Manafort’s “Criminal” Activities?” Manny writes:
Paul Manafort sits in solitary confinement for crimes he allegedly committed stemming from his work as a lobbyist in Ukraine years ago before Donald Trump ran for president.
For a little back story, Yulia Tymoshenko runs for reelection in Ukraine, she loses, and just like Hillary, Tymoshenko fails to lose gracefully and promises to #Resist. Her victorious opponent, Viktor Yanukovytch, throws her in jail for what many claim to be bogus charges [something President Trump has not yet done to Hillary Clinton.]
Manny continues;
While she was in jail, guess who pleaded for her release? John McCain. As a matter of fact, John McCain thought the Ukrainian election was of such paramount importance to the United States that he gets the Senate to form a Ukrainian Caucus in order to further Ukrainian interests, of which John McCain is a member.
When she gets out of jail, there’s a push for an investigation into the mishandling of her trial and the charges themselves. So the Ukrainian government, which is still run by the guy she lost the election to, Viktor Yanukovych, hires the law firm of Skadden Arps, specifically Greg Craig [Obama’s former White House Counsel], and a lobbyist, Paul Manafort. Greg Craig’s team of attorneys included Alex Van Der Zwann. Van Der Zwann’s father-in-law is a business partner to the same Oleg Deripaska that is connected to the Clintons and the Obamas, the same Oleg Deripaska that paid for the Steele dossier, the Steele dossier that Manafort’s lobbying partner and McCain’s chief of staff went to pick up in London. Van Der Zwann is the same guy that Mueller just indicted for lying to the FBI. And Oleg Deripaska is suing Manafort for monies that the Russian oligarch believes Manafort stole from him in a business deal gone bad. And if your head isn’t spinning fast enough from all these connections so far, let me add to it by saying, let us not forget that Paul Manafort was McCain’s campaign manager during McCain’s failed bid to become President of the United States. (Side note: Is McCain holding a grudge? We know he is with Sarah Palin.)
Anyway, due to all the negative publicity stemming from the Tymoshenko debacle, Yanukovytch tried to repair his image before the public, so he hires the lobbyist, Paul Manafort, who then hires John Podesta’s lobbying outfit. Their job was to make Yanukovytch seem like a really likable guy to the Ukrainian public, so Podesta gets both Obama, Hillary Clinton, and John Kerry’s State Department to do photo ops with Yanukovytch because, you know, the DNC coffers needed to be filled during election time, so they had to sell Yanukovytch as a real class act to the adoring public. Obama even went so far as to declare the Ukrainian election to be free and fair.
But guess who else did photo ops with Yanukovytch? Bob Mueller, the same Mueller that’s now prosecuting these very people. Rod Rosenstein’s memo said Mueller was specifically authorized to investigate allegations that Manafort “[c]ommitted a crime or crimes arising out of payments he received from the Ukrainian government before and during the tenure of President Viktor Yanukovych.”
Did Bob Mueller allow these photos to be taken out of the goodness of his heart, or did he monetarily benefit from them? Hmmm, let me think about that one. If Mueller was paid for these photo ops, did he declare these monies? Surely Mueller would not have paid for his own airfare to the Ukraine. If somebody else paid for his airfare, did Mueller declare that too? Did Mueller fill out a FARA form? Same questions for all of the others involved, like, Obama, Hillary Clinton, and John Kerry’s people. But isn’t it the most interesting of all that all these people who monetarily benefited from this situation are now the very same ones who are behind the prosecution of Paul Manafort?
Manny has a point. Did Mueller get paid for his trip to the Ukraine and his photo op with their President?
If so, did he file a FARA form or did he file the form a month before Manafort was indicted like the Podesta’s did? Did the others who met with the Ukrainian leader also report any earnings from their meetings?
Richard H. "Rick" Davis, Jr. (born 1957) is an American political consultant. He currently serves as a Partner and Chief Operating Officer of Pegasus Sustainable Century Merchant Bank, a private equity firm specializing in sustainable development projects. He is a managing partner of the business development and public affairs consulting firm Davis-Manafort, located in Alexandria, Virginia. He is best known for being the National Campaign Manager of John McCain's 2008 Presidential campaign (from July 11, 2007 to November 4, 2008[2]). In that capacity, he oversaw the development and implementation of all campaign strategy and policy development. Davis also served McCain as National Campaign Manager for his 2000 Republican Presidential Primary campaign (April 6, 1999 to March 9, 2000).
In 2006, Davis helped set up the encounter between McCain and Russian aluminum magnate Oleg Deripaska in Sweden during an international economic conference. Deripaska's suspected links to anti-democratic and organized crime figures are so controversial that the U.S. government revoked his entry visa in 2006.
At the time, Davis was working for a lobbying firm and seeking to do business with the billionaire. Later that month, Deripaska wrote to Davis and his partner, political consultant Paul J. Manafort, to thank them for arranging the meeting. "Thank you so much for setting up everything in Kloster so spectacularly," he wrote. "It was very interesting to meet Senators McCain, Chambliss and Sununu in such an intimate setting."
