Friggen NYT

Like most here, whenever I see them print "all the news that we deem fit to print", the red light comes on. Especially if the sources are anonymous. Or even if they are not. Times a'changin'.

However, if there is some truth to the story, it would mean that President Trump is not the obstinate braggart that he is made to appear. And he listens to advice. Double-whammy.

Now, regarding the immigration offer. "What Congress giveth, Congress taketh". My opinion about the path to citizenship. No path for Dreamers. Would rather have them Wide Awake. That entails a new classification-Permanent permanent residents. And then watch Dems' heads explode.

No citizenship, no vote. Unless, of course, through the usual Dems method.

So Donald Trump may have wanted to fire Mueller.

So what ?

President Trump knows the Mueller investigation is a witch hunt based on fabricated "evidence".

A few posts above is one about a new Grassley ltr sent yesterday.

That ltr is long. It includes some new texts.

Conservative Treehouse immediately correlated some of those texts to show Strzok and Page were feeding information to reporter Devlin Barrett (WSJ and Wash Post)

In this text sequence, again INBOX = Strzok, OUTBOX = Page

any doubt who "andy" is ?

This is 28 Oct 2016 when Comey announced that the Clinton email investigation will be reopened because of new emails on Anthony Weiner's laptop

This has been all over the news, but who really cares? He didn't fire him (although he should have). Mueller is a scumbag. How the hell can he investigate the firing of his protege without bias? I mean come on. The democrats gave Mueller orders to take down Trump and that traitor said "Yes Sir!" and is doing his best. Innocent? He could care less. He needs to be investigated (along with the deputy AG he reports to) for his malfeasance during the Uranium One shenanigans.

Just to add, don't think for a second that the other high up FBI management scumbags involved in this weren't mentored by Mueller. All of them at what point or another were Mueller/Comey's people.

Seems he did pretty much O.K. in Davos amongst the globalists and elite.

Could it be that the lame stream media was wrong all along?

It is hard to believe what he has done and he always gives credit to the ones that work for him. I know how much that means since in my last job it was all about others taking credit for my work and ideas.

The wall will be built which is the most important thing to stop drugs and illegals. DACA will end and the ones here under DACA will go through a filter to eliminate the undesirable ones. We need to move on and not let this drag on since there are other important things to do.

One of the things should be to reintroduce the idea that this country is the greatest place for humans in all of history. Especially in schools for kids as they move through primary and secondary education.

Package delivery company FedEx Corp said on Friday it will spend more than $3.2 billion on wage increases, bonuses, pension funding and capital investment, taking advantage of the U.S. tax overhaul signed into law in December

The Memphis, Tennessee-based company said it would invest $1.5 billion to significantly expand its hub in Indianapolis over the next seven years and modernize and enlarge its Memphis SuperHub. The new tax code allows companies to immediately write off the full value of capital costs, which helps make projects more financially attractive...FedEx, which said the recent tax changes would likely boost economic growth and investment in the United States, also said it would contribute $1.5 billion to an employee pension plan. The company plans more than $200 million in higher compensation, about two-thirds of which will go to hourly employees with the remainder funding increases in performance-based incentive plans for salaried workers.


but:

Last 6 weeks, Congressional Leadership Fund surveyed 69 congressional districts. The tax bill is underwater in 52 districts, and in 50, a plurality of voters believe the tax bill will increase their taxes.

hope reality changes that in the next month

adding:

So far, over three million workers have received bonuses

Over 250 companies have agreed to hand them out, citing the bill’s economic impacts

Don't sell Mueller short. The man is dangerous and he has one hell of a staff. Do not underestimate him. He is a genuine threat. Look how he took down ENRON from the outside-in. I am just saying to be wary.

Sure. Wary. Got it.

There is no dispute that Weissman caused a great deal of grief as part of the ENRON task force.

ENRON collapsed, beyond hope. Weissman had no role in that. Arthur Anderson was the largest accounting firm in the world. Weissman caused an indictment of the firm, not merely the responsible partners, which resulted in the instant evaporation of the firm, ~20,000 jobs world wide. An early jury trial convicted the firm over records destruction in accordancecwith its retention policy.

Several Merril Lynch employees who were peripherally involved in a financing transaction both the Merrill Lynch counsel had concluded was perfectly proper were convicted, or pled guilty, faced with ruinous litigation and sentencing risks.

The Supreme Court, in a 9-0 vote in 2005, overturned the Andersen conviction. A year later, the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals erased all the fraud convictions against four Merrill Lynch managers. The jury had acquitted another defendant. Lots of suffering, lots of expense here.

In sum, the uber hard ball tactics resulted in gross manifold injustice. How do you get a criminal conviction overturned 9-0 at the Supreme Court?

Andy Grove (INTEL CEO) had a famous quote--"Only the paranoid survive". And I live with a constant dose of mild paranoia. It is good to understand your enemy.

We already tried one of your choices, and it didn’t work out so good. Fool me once, and all that.

Eminem has hit out again at Donald Trump

Yeahhh.....about that, Em'. Why don't you keep selling crappy albums to white guys who wish they were black and leave the heavy thinking to somebody else.

Mmmmkay?

this from WSJ Kimberly Strassel

note: her dire warning hasn't happened yet, she is theorizing it might

https://www.wsj.com/articles/o...-the-memo-1516925395

Under House rules, a majority of the Intelligence Committee can vote to declassify the memo. Mr. Trump then has up to five days to object to its release. If he doesn’t object, the memo goes public. If he does, a majority of the House would have to vote to override him.

The shrieks of reckless harm and national security are designed to pressure Mr. Trump to object.

And wait for it: In coming days the Justice Department’s protectors will gin up a separate, desperate claim that Mr. Trump will somehow be “interfering” in special counsel Robert Mueller’s probe unless he objects to the release.

According to this view, it is Mr. Trump’s obligation not just to sit by while the media and the Mueller team concoct their narrative, but to block any evidence that might undercut it.

The slippery shadow in all this is Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein. Attorney General Jeff Sessions’ recusal put Mr. Rosenstein in charge of digging into the actions—right or wrong—of the Justice Department and FBI in 2016.

Instead of taking up that challenge, he named an old and dear friend of the FBI as special counsel, and directed him only to look at Mr. Trump. And Mr. Rosenstein appears to have signed up as an active participant in the effort to thwart any congressional investigation of the other side of the issue.

A department head interested in truth doesn’t flout subpoenas. He doesn’t do a runaround of the Intelligence Committee and try to sucker House Speaker Paul Ryan into aiding a stonewall by asking him to intervene just before a deadline and block a contempt citation.

He doesn’t sit on the knowledge of outrageous texts between FBI agents and force Congress to drag it out of him. And he doesn’t sign off on the leaks and character assassination in which his department daily engages to undermine Congress.

The good news is that these frantic reactions are a sign Americans are getting closer to the truth. So long as the truth-tellers keep moving forward.
