Huh, I never figured John Kelly as a scumbag traitor like that but it's starting to make sense now. All those leaks were probably HIM. | |||

I know- it makes me want to go through all the leaks and rumors that happened when he was CoS. I'd love to see an analysis of each leak and rumor. the trouble would be how the data point are defined. I'll bet he and old Rex had lots to talk about and leak about. undermining the boss. gtfo There is something good and motherly about Washington, the grand old benevolent National Asylum for the helpless. - Mark Twain The Gilded Age #CNNblackmail #CNNmemewar | |||

https://www.breitbart.com/poli...since-taking-office/ President Donald Trump has relieved over 8,000 Veterans Affairs employees for failing their duty since becoming the president, according to VA Secretary Robert Wilkie. “The standard is if you don’t live up to your oath if you don’t live up to the standards that our veterans expect, that you will be asked to leave,” Wilkie told reporters in a press conference on Friday. “This is a transformational moment in our history.” Wilkie said accountability was a signature promise from President Trump, particularly after the Veterans Affairs scandals in Phoenix in 2014 and 2015. Under Trump, he said, VA employees as high as network directors down to the lowest employees were removed for not performing their job to the proper standards. “This is, I think, one of the strongest statements that we can make: That it is a new day at VA,” Wilkie said. | |||

https://www.breitbart.com/2020...ent-weak-2020-field/ The 2020 Democrat presidential field is about to get locked by filing deadlines and that is making a lot of Democrats nervous. If you want to run for president, it is a 50 state process that requires filing papers and whatever else is required to get on the ballot. Alabama’s filing deadline passed last week. New Hampshire and Arkansas expire this week. The heavy hitters of Illinois, California, and Texas are just weeks away. Ohio and North Carolina arrive before Christmas. In other words, unless someone gets off the pot, the current 2020 crop of tired, old extremists is locked in forever. Which means one of them will face Trump in 2020, and a quick look around shows that Democrats are not happy about that. For the last four years, Trump has been smeared by the media and Democrats 2020 should be a lay-up for Democrats; after all, we have all those Fox News polls proving Trump is down something like 99 points to every Democrat politician in America Why so nervous, Democrats? Former Vice President Joe Biden is the great slight hope, has the best chance against Trump Biden was a terrible candidate before he started operating just a notch above “zombie.” Politico reports the Trump campaign has spent $287,000 just in Iowa on ads that blast Biden over Ukraine, and this pales compared to the money spent on ads targeting Biden on Facebook and YouTube. And if Biden loses the nomination, that leaves the socialists Elizabeth Warren or Bernie Sanders, or Pete Buttigieg, the 11-year-old mayor black people can’t stand. Bloomberg’s biggest problem — by far — is that he has no natural constituency Who does Bloomberg have? He’s a billionaire businessman, a pushing 80 technocrat… He might be seen as a “moderate” in the Democrat Party, a centrist, but that is where he stands politically, which has zero to do with winning votes Democrats have every reason to be nervous, and after Republicans turn these impeachment hearings into The Joe and Hunter Biden Looted Ukraine and China Show, they will have even more reason. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx adding: President Trump welcome at Alabama / LSU game https://twitter.com/i/status/1193270405399818243 | |||

Very interesting take on this whole Adam Schiff impeachment farce from political blogger James Howard Kunstler Could it be possible that Pelosi is setting both Shifty Schiff and The Squad (who are trying to take control of the Democrat Party away from her) up for a fall?

It was probably easier to let the Dem crazies run the impeachment, than to block it. As mentioned above, this should work to Pelosi's advantage by giving the squad and Schiff enough rope to hang themselves. I look forward to the next election, and to more Trump judicial picks. -c1steve | |||

Bill talks about the master showmanship and stage control by President Trump. I watch President Trump address the media while Marine 1 is spooled up. President Trump controls them by forcing them to go one-on-one with him, otherwise they'll get no sound bites. | |||

Umm …, not the way I read this: ======================================== US Constitution: “The Senators and Representatives...shall in all Cases, except Treason, Felony, and Breach of the Peace, be privileged from Arrest during their Attendance at the Session of their respective Houses, and in going to and returning from the same....” Article I, Section 6, Clause 1 [But:] The Privilege from Arrest Clause provides a Member of Congress a privilege from civil arrest only, but not from other civil processes. Even the privilege from civil arrest would be valid only while Congress is in session. Civil arrest is the physical detainment of a person, by lawful authority, to answer a civil demand against him. At the time the Constitution was adopted, civil arrests were common. Long v. Ansell (1934). The Framers likely feared this tool could be misused to interfere with the legislative process. Civil arrest is rarely, if ever, practiced, so this clause is virtually obsolete and has little application today. The Supreme Court interpreted the language "in all Cases, except Treason, Felony, and Breach of the Peace" to encompass all crimes. [Emphasis added.] Williamson v. United States (1908). Tracing the origins of the clause to parliamentary privilege, the Court found this identical language was used to qualify Parliament's privilege from arrest so that the members of Parliament were not immune from criminal prosecution. The Court concluded that the Framers' use of the identical phrase, without any explanation, indicated that Congress's privilege was to have the same limitation regarding criminal actions as did the parliamentary privilege from which the language was borrowed. The clause, therefore, does not provide Congress with any immunity from criminal prosecution. [EA.] The Supreme Court, applying the Framers' intent, later declared that the clause also did not provide any privilege from civil process. Long v. Ansell. Hence, civil litigants can compel Members of Congress to appear in a court of proper jurisdiction to defend against civil actions. Furthermore, the Court has so narrowly interpreted the clause that Members of Congress may even be compelled by subpoena to testify in criminal and civil actions while Congress is in session. LINK: https://www.heritage.org/const...rivilege-from-arrest ======================================== The real limits on what many people would like to see used against the people they don’t like is that what constitutes offenses like sedition and treason has been very narrowly defined by the courts. The First Amendment gives broad protections against being prosecuted for saying what one thinks or what one wants others to think. And attempting a coup—what statute makes that an offense? In the late 1960s when the extent of spying for the Soviet Union by Communists in this country and elsewhere was well known, it was still permissible to ask background investigation questions about people’s subversive political beliefs. We had to be very careful, however, to couch them in terms of whether the applicant not only advocated the overthrow of the US government, but whether they advocated its overthrow “by force or violence.” Even then mere advocacy might have been a bar to receiving a security clearance, but no one seriously considered it to be a basis for criminal prosecution. ► 6.4/93.6 ___________ “We are Americans …. Together we have resisted the trap of appeasement, cynicism, and isolation that gives temptation to tyrants.” — George H. W. Bush | |||

if he is doing the nations business, that I can agree with but if they are staging a coup, the only shield he should get should be something a lot less than bullet proof the Constitution shouldn't be used as a suicide pact [B] Against ALL enemies, foreign and DOMESTIC | |||

mixed signals re Vindman Vindman lawyer: @mikevolkov20 says, “Vindman is still detailed to NSC. We are not aware of any changes in his status. Obviously any retaliatory action against LTC Vindman on a day when we honor our military heroes would be reprehensible.” @mikevolkov20, attorney for Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman, tells @CBSNews his client “Still has a job - his detail ends in July 2020.” then this: https://talkingpointsmemo.com/...oved-from-wh-council National Security Adviser Robert O’Brien said Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman, who gave a bombshell testimony in the House impeachment investigation last month on President Donald Trump’s Ukraine scheme, will be removed from his post at the White House National Security Council. “Well look, one of the things that I’ve talked about is that we’re streamlining the National Security Council,” O’Brien replied. “It got bloated to like 236 people up from 100 in the Bush administration under President Obama.” obama loaded up NSC w his "friends". A little surprise package for President Trump The national security adviser said Vindman, who currently serves as the council’s Director for European Affairs, will be removed as a part of the White House’s “streamlining” efforts. “My understanding is he’s–that Colonel Vindman is detailed from the Department of Defense,” O’Brien said. “So everyone who’s detailed at the NSC, people are going to start going back to their own departments and we’ll bring in new folks.” When Brennan asked O’Brien to confirm that the decision is not retaliation against Vindman, whom Trump has baselessly accused of being a “Never Trumper,” the national security adviser’s response was that he personally had never retaliated against anyone. “I never retaliated against anyone,” he said. “There- there will be a point for everybody who’s detailed there—that their time, that their detail will come to an end.” xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx and this lawyer Mark Zaid: It should be made clear that #Vindman's #whistleblower disclosures are protected by law & he is not allowed to be subjected to reprisal. It may be a legitimate, justifiable personnel move, but relevant oversight authorities should inquire. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx I hope they throw Vinmand off NSC right away | |||

So what would be so reprehensible about throwing that traitor out on his butt?!? It is not his job to publicly attack the president. If he wants to get into politics, he should retire/resign, hang up his uniform and get with it.

Schiff Denies Republican Requests for Testimony From Key Witnesses A pathetic embarrassment to the nation. https://www.frontpagemag.com/f...ny-key-joseph-klein/ "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 "The United States government is the largest criminal enterprise on earth." -rduckwor | |||
