I disagree the dossier wasn't worth $50m. To date, it has been worth every penny to the Dems and MSM. However...they have to land it with at a minimum, no major indictments of their own as a result...and the side of freedom is just getting warmed up. I hope their best 2 year investment becomes their worst nightmare very soon. “People have to really suffer before they can risk doing what they love.” –Chuck Palahnuik Be harder to kill: https://preparefit.ck.page | |||

The annual White House Correspondents' Association dinner is tonight. http://www.breitbart.com/big-g...nalism-award-for-it/ Four CNN reporters who broke the dossier story in January 2017 will be "honored" CNN Jake Tapper and co-workers Evan Perez, Jim Sciutto, and Carl Bernstein, are now up for the WHCA’s Merriman Smith Award. Evan Perez is a known close associate of Fusion GPS. Clapper leaked the story to Jake Tapper. but it appears Clapper got the story somewhat wrong. Clapper told Comey to tell Donald Trump about the dossier. Comey only talked to the President-elect about the sex part. Tapper's article makes a series of specific claims, among them: “The allegations were presented in a two-page synopsis that was appended to a report on Russian interference in the 2016 election.” This claim in particular was called into question Thursday when Comey explicitly denied he presented any such two-page summary and said that the briefing was spoken only. "CNN reported a time that you handed two-page executive summary of the dossier over to him,” Baier asked Comey, to which he said, “I did not.” Comey did not entirely rule out the existence of a two-page summary, but it was clear he did not present one to the president-elect. Comey’s characterization Thursday of the Trump briefing also differed from CNN’s in several other respects. By his accounts, Comey alone briefed the president elect, at Clapper’s request – not as a group, as CNN suggests Despite these revelations, the WHCA judges characterizes Tapper, Perez, Bernstein, and Sciutto’s reporting as follows: "These four journalists and a number of other CNN reporters broke the story that the intelligence community had briefed President Barack Obama and then-President elect Donald Trump that Russia had compromising information about Trump. The CNN team later reported that then-FBI Director James Comey personally briefed Trump about the dossier. Thanks to this CNN investigation, “the dossier” is now part of the lexicon. The depth of reporting demonstrated in these remarkable and important pieces, and the constant updates as new information continued to be uncovered showed breaking news reporting at its best." ************* Truly a disgrace from the WH Correspondents. The leak came to Tapper from James Clapper who later hired on to CNN to continue his nonstop Trump bashing while acting so noble and all knowing. Yes, thanks CNN for making the dossier part of the lexicon. I hope we get to jam it down your lying throats. "reporting at its best" | |||

There is a lengthy analysis and further details of the FBI Strzok/Page/McCabe et al cabal, the texting, etc. here. It suggests that Page/Strzok were not lovers, that was merely the cover story, among other things, who is cooperating, who is not, etc. Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me. When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way. This lesson in political reality from Lyndon B. Johnson "Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." - Justice Janice Rogers Brown | |||

For texting and social media purposes, it was shorten to "claptrap", which is a noun for absurd or nonsensical talk or ideas. Urban dictionary defines it as "Pretentious, pompous, nonsensical and or empty language (especially while pandering to an audience such as a CNN broadcast...ok I added that part )". It is an "if the shoe fits" situation.....just saying. | |||

When the existance of the Utah prosecutor was made public I read an article that mentioned that he could empanel a grand jury anywhere, that it did not have to be in DC. Is this true? | |||

Recommended by Powerlineblog, I found this long investigative article by Lee Smith on "the other dossier" now being discussed in the House Intelligence Committee report. This is a VERY long article:

the link that sjtill posted above shows the whole conspiracy is even broader than we thought. Whenever you hear the names Sid Blumenthal or Cody Shearer, you know they are reporting straight 100% propaganda for the Clintons. They have been the Clinton political attack dogs for decades. So now we know Shearer was pitching the same themes prior to or at same time as Steele. Then Clinton stooges blended the Shearer lies w the Steele lies to make them look like they were supporting each other. From the article: "Shearer tried to drum up interest in the collusion narrative but no one in the press was biting. No one was willing to sink time and prestige on material sourced to unnamed Russian intelligence officials that was provided by a Clinton political operative whose partner, Sidney Blumenthal, had an even more controversial reputation. But it would be different if it came from someone else, an intelligence operative whose American handlers worked up a suitable legend of his exploits in a glamorous, allied clandestine service, and his deep knowledge of all things Russian. So what did it matter if Steele had become an executive in a corporate intelligence firm whose official cover had been blown a decade before and who hadn’t been to Russia in years? The byline of a former MI6 agent could credential a compendium of unsubstantiated rumors when the names of Clinton confederates Cody Shearer and Sidney Blumenthal could not." This conspiracy was well thought out and well executed. A conspiracy to throw the election to Clinton. So what is Mueller investigating ? Manafort from 10 years ago. Flynn for "lying" about a call that was legitimate Cohen for paying off a porn star. But the real conspiracy is right out in the open. Is Mueller grabbing computers from Fusion ? from Steele ? from Shearer ? | |||

Flynn has pled guilty to lying. There is no need to continue to investigate that. More likely, they are trying to flip him, or may have already, on other stuff, info Flynn may have, conversations, documents, etc. I’m not sure how the Feds do it, but several times I saw the San Diego DA accept a plea to a never commited crime where the crime they charged, or wanted, lacked proof, not solid evidence, etc. One time, a guy was driving a VW allowing his buddies to hang on on skateboards when something went wrong and one was killed. My partner convinced the DA that the case against the driver had some sort of problems, but they refused to just forget about it, and the defendant ended up leading guilty to failure to remove snow, in Bonita where it hasn’t snowed since the Aztecs left. It was just a chicken shit charge to give the guy a record, inflict some punishment, etc. Maybe they couldn’t get Flynn on the lying charge, wanted something a lot worse but didn’t really have the goods and this is the deal which emerged. He’s not moved to withdraw his plea, you will observe. Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me. When you had the votes, we did things your way.

I’ve been reading more online stuff from various sources, blogs, etc, and just ran across this one from The Conservative Treehouse which has some extraordinary claims about the Weiner e-mail discovery and how that was handled, in the light of Comey’s book tour interviews and other public pronouncements. It is lengthy and detailed. If true, it is incredibly sordid. Link Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me.

Well, JAllen, I read it all, and as you say if true is incredibly sordid in the most literal sense. The DOJ blackmailing NYPD to drop the investigation into Clinton e-mails? I'm not one who usually subscribes to conspiracy theories, but holy crap! The FBI had access to 600,000 Clinton e-mails from Weiner's laptop, and no one was looking at them? Can't wait for the OIG report on the Clinton Foundation investigation. I'll just toss in this link to an article by Mark Tapscott:

Thanks, Stan. You know, I used to be a lot more impressed with stuff like that, all these secrets, etc., but now having seen the intel product these clowns apparently deal in, I wouldn’t worry too much about it. It seems to be rumor, gossip, unproven nonsense, propaganda, spin, fake news, all mixed together to please whoever happens to be in power It is a fact that a certain country gets so much rainfall, or that there are so many acres of wheat likely to be harvested, or shortages of equipment will result in fewer gizmos, etc. This humint, so called, though, is worthless. You can make it up, feed it out through “close associates” known to be connected, trusted advisors, etc. Script writers! They can’t say for sure if Michael Cohen was in Prague, or if Trump stayed overnight at Miss Universe to see golden showers, can’t come up with Hillary’s e-mails, can’t get it right that this lunatic is likely to go out and shoot up a school, even told point blank that he might. We are told for years what a nutjob this Korean guy is, a complete thug who murders his relatives, gulps cognac, terrorizes his people. He comes across the last week like a big old teddy bear, smiling, happy, relaxed, friendly. Are we sure that any of this is real? Or is it just fake reality Tv like? Entertainment? The stories they leak are as phoney as the “secrets” they pretend to keep. Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me. When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way. This lesson in political reality from Lyndon B. Johnson "Some things are apparent.

Why doesn't the NYPD leak the sordid contents of the Hildabeasts Emails? I'm quite sure that some enterprising Detective in the investigation of Weiner thought to make copies of them - just in case. Since Lynch and Comey are gone, why not release them? Regards 18DAI 7+1 Rounds of hope and change | |||

JALLEN, thanks for posting the the conservative treehouse link, it was eye opening. We heard stories that the NYPD found the Clinton emails while doing the sexting investigation and that there was rumbles from them and the FBI NY field agents about the non investigation of the newly found emails. It makes sense that Lynch would threaten the NYPD with a Garner and civil rights investigation as she still had Holder's playbook and team handy to go in and make a bunch of salacious allegations (hmm, kind of like the Steele Dossier) with no facts or evidence (which Holder did for every single Police Department investigation). I also wondered how they got through all those emails in less than a week. It looks like they were never looked at due to the cabal's previous ruling of no probable cause, so it wouldn't matter if they found anything anyway; still no probable cause to indict her. | |||
