  • Attorney #2 was removed Feb 2018 from Special Counsel Office for bias texts found by IG

    FBI Attorney 2 was assigned to the Midyear investigation early in 2016. FBI Attorney 2 was not the lead FBI attorney assigned to Midyear and he told us he provided support to the investigation as needed. FBI Attorney 2 told us that he was also assigned to the investigation into Russian election interference and was the primary FBI attorney assigned to that investigation beginning in early 2017. FBI Attorney 2 told us that he was then assigned to the Special Counsel investigation once it began. FBI Attorney 2 left the Special Counsel’s investigation and returned to the FBI in late...

    The woke left rejects Homer, and the rest of the Western canon, because they hate any art that doesn’t reinforce their narrow-minded ideology.The woke are succeeding where Plato failed. In Plato’s most famous dialogue, the “Republic,” the character of Socrates argues the ideal polity will exclude Homer and the rest of the Greek poets and dramatists. But Plato, who loved the poets, leaves the door open for their return. As with much else in Plato’s work, the proposed ban on Homer should perhaps be taken seriously, not literally. Today’s cultural radicals, however, have no such subtlety. When they say we...

    All over America, there is a great outpouring of prayer for the nation and for the elections. Believers are gathering together online and in corporate settings, fasting and praying for God's intervention. "We need you, God," they cry out with one voice. "Have mercy on our land! Don't abandon us, Lord! Help, Father!" Even in other countries, believers are fasting and praying for America right now. We stand at a pivotal time in our history, and as America goes, much of the world goes. But the worst thing we could do is stop praying on November 4 (if, in fact,...

    Ramblings of a conservative cow doctor ^ | December 7, 2016 | Krayton Kerns, DVM
    This 75th anniversary of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor is a real life example of a human absolute. Once started, war continues until one side deprives the other of the will, manpower and/or material to engage in additional hostilities. Negotiating peace with an adversary still possessing the ability to fight only prolongs the engagement. This truth of warfare similarly applies to politics, but the battles are fought with ballots rather than bullets and progressives understand this absolute. Establishment Republicans, not so much and this is timely as even though the progressive ideology was soundly rejected November 8th, this enemy...

    "...Are you serious?"Those are three simple words that form one simple question. And the question has led us to this moment in time. Recall in October of 2009, when then-Speaker of the U.S House of Representatives Nancy Pelosi was asked about the formulation of the Obamacare bill, and she asked that very question of a reporter. “Madam Speaker,” a reporter from CNSNews.com said to her, “where specifically does the Constitution grant Congress the authority to enact an individual health insurance mandate?” Ms. Pelosi seemed surprised. Her indignant “are you serious?” response was followed with a slight bit of nervous laughter,...
