from bama's link: The Iraqis sent the Turks an intelligence file they had amassed on Mr. Ithawi, and the Turkish security forces arrested him on Feb. 15, and extradited him to Iraq, this official said. Iraqi and American intelligence officials then spent weeks interrogating him, learning the details and whereabouts of other ISIS leaders in hiding, the officials said. The American-led coalition used this information to launch an airstrike in mid-April that killed 39 suspected Islamic State members near Hajin, in the Deir al-Zour district of Syria, the second official said. The joint Iraqi-American intelligence team then set a trap, according to these officials. They persuaded Mr. Ithawi to contact several of his Islamic State colleagues who had been hiding in Syria and lure them across the border, the officials said. The Iraqi authorities were waiting, and arrested the group soon after they crossed the frontier, the officials said. | |||

http://thehill.com/homenews/ad...june-12-in-singapore President Trump announced Thursday his high-stakes summit meeting with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un will take place on June 12 in Singapore. The meeting will mark the first time a sitting U.S. president meets with the leader of North Korea. *************** reminder: https://www.cbsnews.com/news/n...nusable-kim-jong-un/ Research by Chinese geologists suggests that the mountain above North Korea's main nuclear test site has likely collapsed. That collapse has likely rendered the site unsafe for further testing and will require that it be monitored for any leaking radiation. Nuclear explosions release enormous amounts of heat and energy, and the North's largest test in September was believed early on to have rendered the Punggye-ri site in northeastern North Korea unstable. The data in the latest Chinese study was collected following the most powerful of North Korea's six nuclear device tests on Sept. 3, which is believed to have triggered four earthquakes over the following weeks. The yield of the bomb was estimated at more than 100 kilotons of TNT, at least 10 times stronger than anything the North had tested previously. (The bomb the United States dropped on Hiroshima in 1945 had a yield of about 15 kilotons.) | |||

WASHINGTON (AP) — Senate Republicans are on the verge of filling the nation’s longest appellate court vacancy and in the process softening a tool the GOP successfully employed to block several of President Barack Obama’s nominees. The Senate gives lawmakers a chance to weigh in on a judicial nominee from their home state by submitting a blue-colored form called the “blue slip.” A positive blue slip signals the Senate to move forward with the nomination process. A negative blue slip, or withholding it altogether, signals a senator’s objection and almost always stalls the nomination. Until this year, it had been nearly three decades since the Senate confirmed a judge without two positive blue slips. The likely confirmation Thursday of Milwaukee attorney Michael Brennan to fill an opening on the 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Chicago will mark the second time it has happened this year. Sen. Tammy Baldwin, D-Wis., declined to return her blue slip. The move to go ahead with a hearing for Brennan and a vote on the floor has Democrats crying foul, but as a procedural vote showed Wednesday, that’s about all they can do. The Senate voted along party lines to limit debate on Brennan’s confirmation, 49-47. “I’d admonish my friends on the other side of the aisle, this is a very dangerous road you’re treading,” said Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y. “As everyone knows, the winds of political change blow swiftly in America. The minority one day is the majority the next.” The warning was reminiscent of the one that Republican Sen. Mitch McConnell issued when Democrats changed the rules to lower the threshold necessary to end a filibuster for district and circuit court judges. Under the change, the Senate can cut off debate with a simple majority rather than 60 votes. At the time, the Kentucky Republican said, “You’ll regret this, and you may regret this a lot sooner than you think.” He was certainly correct. Fast forward to Wednesday, when Sen. Chuck Grassley of Iowa, the Republican chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, said Democrats’ complaints were based on an incorrect understanding of the blue slip’s history. “The blue slip courtesy is just that — a courtesy,” Grassley said. He said past chairmen of the committee had rarely used negative or unreturned blue slips as unilateral vetoes. The most recent exception was Democratic Sen. Patrick Leahy of Vermont, who was chairman during the first six years of Obama’s presidency. “That was his prerogative,” Grassley said. Grassley said that under his tenure, the blue slip will be used to ensure the president consults with home state senators, but not as a veto for appellate court nominees. He said he was satisfied in Brennan’s case that the White House consulted with both of Wisconsin’s senators before the president nominated him. Republicans have made it a top priority to confirm the president’s nominees, particularly those who will serve on federal appeals courts. It’s a top issue with social conservatives leading into this year’s midterm elections. With Democrats slow-walking many of Trump’s nominees, McConnell said last October that the blue slip process should not be used to “blackball” nominees. The judicial vacancy Brennan would fill has been open since January 2010. For Democrats, it was particularly galling that Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wis., has used his blue slip to object to Obama nominee Victoria Nourse to serve on the 7th Circuit. She eventually withdrew from consideration. “How is Sen. Baldwin’s right to consult on judges for her state any less important than Sen. Johnson’s?” Schumer said. “It’s mind-bending hypocrisy. It’s an appalling double standard.” Johnson said more than one million of the state’s residents had voted for him, and he had no role whatsoever in the nomination of Nourse “so I decided not to return the blue slip.” He said he does not believe the blue slip should be used as an absolute veto, though. “The blue slip from my standpoint should primarily be used just as the advice and consent of one senator expressing an opinion on a judge from their state,” Johnson said. Johnson noted that he did return a blue slip for a subsequent Obama nominee to the 7th Circuit, Donald Schott. However, there was strong resistance from Republicans in going forward with any Obama’s nominees during his final year in office. Just 11 federal judges won confirmation that year. A final vote on Brennan’s nomination was expected at noon Thursday. McConnell teed up votes for six appellate court nominees this week. So far, the Senate has confirmed 34 of Trump’s judicial nominees. Link Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me.

Thank you Very little |
Should Trump stop the daily briefings, His recent tweet about how 90+% of the press is negative about him, his presidency, anything that happens, little if anything positive is reported. Sarah Huckabee Sanders is doing a stand up job of dealing with the daily BS of super left reporters who write questions to be picked up for TV or internet viewing vs really reporting the news. It's a shit show that insults the profession that once used the daily brief as a way to get information prior to the internet/tv/radio. So cancel it, issue press releases and have maybe one a week or every other week, wouldn't bother me one bit... | |||

I'm absolutely shocked Schumer didn't burst into flames when that word crossed his lips. Takes one to know one Charlie. I'm not a huge McConnell fan, but he has impressed me with his efforts to move these judicial nominations through the nonsense inflicted upon them by the Dem's. ----------------------------- Guns are awesome because they shoot solid lead freedom.

Nah, I think they serve a useful purpose in reaffirming daily for anyone interested just how corrupt and complicit the media really is. And Sarah Sanders really seems to enjoy pounding on these nitwits. Maybe just ban Jim Acosta from CNN for the fun of it. ----------------------------- Guns are awesome because they shoot solid lead freedom. Every man should have several guns.

The White House is under no obligation whatsoever to provide these briefings, and anyone who doubts this, go find the law that says these briefings must take place. You won't find it. It's not in the Constitution, either. | |||

Holy smokes! Trump continues to deliver! I can't imagine what it's like to be in a North Korean labor camp. I am truly happy for those people. I don't know the story of how they got captured but the bottom line is Trump got them freed. "It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual."

Yep it's a tradition, started back when the only way to get news out was to have a meeting with reporters who used pencils/pens and notepads who went back to an office and reported it on paper. There wasn't a direct communication network to the people like today, it acted like a distributor network no direct to consumer access. The interwebs have given direct access so you can get your story out without someone editing it to change meaning. Maybe the press releases do help with the agenda of beating the liberal out of the press.. Still, screw them, make it once a week, that'll really piss um off and do it on Fridays so nothing they report over the weekend will be read... | |||
