Trump Slams Biden's DOJ for Giving McCabe Pension Back: 'Another Mockery to Our Country' https://www.westernjournal.com...her-mockery-country/ Former Deputy FBI Director Andrew McCabe has his pension back even after being fired for cause because he lied about leaks to the media — and it’s a political decision former President Donald Trump is calling “another mockery to our country.” According to the Daily Caller, McCabe will get his pension back as part of a settlement with the Department of Justice announced last week. “In addition to receiving his pension going forward, McCabe will also receive $200,000 in back pension pay and $539,000 in attorneys’ fees , as part of an agreement with the DOJ signed Thursday,” the Daily Caller reported. _________________________ "Sometimes I wonder whether the world is being run by smart people who are putting us on or by imbeciles who really mean it."

Yeah, just a couple of bad apples at the top. During the Big Zero administration, they played this game a lot. A partisan NGO would sue some agency--e.g. sue the EPA to get them to declare that CO is a pollutant. The EPA settles the lawsuit, probably throws some millions at the NGO and its lawyers, and lo and behold, without any EO, without any legislation, CO is now a pollutant. _________________________ “ What all the wise men promised has not happened, and what all the damned fools said would happen has come to pass.”— Lord Melbourne | |||

Technically, CO (carbon monoxide) IS a pollutant. I think you meant CO2 (carbon dioxide), which is an essential nutrient to all plant life. It should not be considered a pollutant. One way to reduce its level in the air is to plant more green plants outside. flashguy Texan by choice, not accident of birth | |||

BREAKING: Trump announces new TRUTH social network and media group to fight ‘tyranny of Big Tech’ After years of railing against big tech, former President Donald Trump has announced the creation of the Trump Media & Technology Group, along with his own social media platform, TRUTH Social. After years of railing against big tech, former President Donald Trump has announced the creation of the Trump Media & Technology Group, along with his own social media platform, TRUTH Social. On Wednesday, former president Donald Trump released a statement detailing the creation of his new media and technology group, which he says is meant to act as "a rival to the liberal media consortium" to "fight back against the 'Big Tech' companies of Silicon Valley, which have used their unilateral power to silence opposing voices in America." Trump revealed that the TMTG has created a social network by the name of "TRUTH Social," which is available for pre-order in the Apple Store. The beta is expected to launch in November 2021. "We live in a world where the Taliban has a huge presence on Twitter," Trump wrote in the statement, "yet our favorite American President has been silenced." He added that "TMTG was founded with a mission to give a voice to all." https://thepostmillennial.com/...es-creation-of-truth ~Alan Acta Non Verba NRA Life Member (Patron) God, Family, Guns, Country Men will fight and die to protect women... because women protect everything else. ~Andrew Klavan "Once there was only dark.

https://townhall.com/tipsheet/...january-6th-n2597813 AG Garland Debunks Democrat 'Insurrection' Claims About January 6th Asked by Representative Louie Gohmert (R-TX) whether any of the individuals arrested in connection with the events of January 6th were charged with "insurrection," Garland answered "I don't believe so." As Gohmert then points out, Democrats in Congress and throughout the federal government along with mainstream media figures at CNN, MSNBC, and across the internet continue to assert that what unfolded on January 6th was "an insurrection." But if January 6th was an insurrection, certainly some of the individuals being prosecuted by the government for their alleged role in the events of January 6th would be charged with the crime of insurrection? If not, then the logical conclusion is that January 6th did not, in fact, rise to the level of an insurrection. | |||

House Votes to Hold Steve Bannon in Contempt of Congress https://www.theepochtimes.com/...1zw26CfoPVQLNw%3D%3D The House of Representatives voted Thursday to hold former President Donald Trump adviser Steve Bannon in contempt of Congress after he declined to cooperate with a congressional investigation of the Jan. 6 “Stop the Steal” rally. The partisan vote came after the Democrat-led Jan. 6 Committee voted to move the charge forward to be confirmed in the House. Members of the commission alleged that Bannon refusing a subpoena to provide documents and testimony to the panel constitutes contempt of Congress. The contempt resolution argues that Bannon has no legal standing to defy the subpoena. Trump’s attorney argued that Bannon shouldn’t comply because the requested information is protected by the former president’s executive privilege. Team Trump submitted a memo to Trump’s website announcing a “lawsuit to defend executive privilege.” “The January 6th Committee is a partisan sham to distract Americans from the Democrats’ policies that are killing and robbing Americans,” the memo alleged. The committee says it wants Bannon’s documents and testimony because he was in touch with Trump before the Jan. 6 incident, because he tried to get Trump to focus on the congressional certification of the election results, and because he said on Jan. 5 that “all hell is going to break loose” the next day. Bannon “appears to have had multiple roles relevant to this investigation, including his role in constructing and participating in the ‘stop the steal’ public relations effort that motivated the attack” and “his efforts to plan political and other activity in advance of Jan. 6,” the committee alleged in the resolution. With the House’s certification of the charge, it is now up to the Department of Justice (DOJ) to decide whether or not to pursue legal action. President Joe Biden has encouraged the DOJ, led by his appointee Merrick Garland, to prosecute those found to have violated the Jan. 6 commission’s subpoenas. White House press secretary Jen Psaki later sought to clarify Biden’s remarks, writing on Twitter that he “supports the work of the committee and the independent role of the Department of Justice to make any decisions about prosecutions.” The post drew pushback from Rep. Greg Steube (R-Fla.), who responded by wondering if the DOJ would be charging Biden’s son, Hunter Biden, who’s under investigation for alleged tax fraud. “How about the millions of illegals crossing our southern border? There is nothing independent about this DOJ. They serve the far left and only care about investigating conservatives,” Steube said. The DOJ has promised that it will react to the case on its merits, and will not be swayed by partisanship. “The Department of Justice will make its own independent decisions in all prosecutions based solely on the facts and the law. Period. Full stop,” a DOJ spokesperson told news outlets in an Oct. 15 statement. Garland promised much the same. “The department recognizes the important oversight role Congress plays in respect to the executive branch. I’ll say what a DOJ spokesperson said yesterday: The House votes for a referral of a contempt charge, the DOJ will do what it always does—apply the facts and the law and make a decision.” House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) argued that the subpoena issued by the committee is “invalid” because neither party knows whether Bannon is protected under executive privilege. “They’re issuing an invalid subpoena,” McCarthy said. “Issuing an invalid subpoena weakens our power. He has the right to go to the court to see if he has executive privilege or not. I don’t know if he does or not, but neither does the committee. So they’re weakening the power of Congress itself by issuing an invalid subpoena.” Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) applauded the committee at a Thursday press conference. She alleged that “The January 6 domestic terrorist attack was intended to interfere with the constitutional transfer of power.” House Democratic Caucus Co-chairman Pete Aguillar (D-Calif.) said of the vote. “Let me be clear that this is not done to be punitive, this is done to uphold the law.” Trump has also commented on the ongoing proceedings on his website. Trump said in a statement on the situation: “This is just a continuation of the Witch Hunt which started with the now fully debunked and discredited Russia, Russia, Russia Scam, quickly reverting to a perfect phone call with Ukraine, Ukraine, Ukraine, Impeachment Hoax #1, Impeachment Hoax #2, and now this. The Unselect Committee is composed of absolute political hacks who want to destroy the Republican Party and are decimating America itself.” “I am the only thing in their way,” Trump concluded, promising continued intervention on Bannon’s behalf. _________________________ "Sometimes I wonder whether the world is being run by smart people who are putting us on or by imbeciles who really mean it."

This is Jim Jordan speaking in the hearing for Garland. It could be in several threads, but it covers a lot of issues and may best be here. "Americans fear their government" xxxxxxxxxxxxx adding when Garland was asked about Zuckerberg giving $400 million to influence the 2020 election, Garland said "I'm not aware of what you're talking about."This message has been edited.

Gee, I don't remember this amount of rage when Lois Lerner from the IRS took the 5th over and over. Why doesn't Bannon agree to appear and do the same thing? | |||

‘Really Not At Liberty To Discuss’: AG Garland Plays Dumb When Pressed On Whether Feds Were Involved In 1/6 https://nationalfile.com/reall...ere-involved-in-1-6/ The Attorney General's voice quavered in reaction to questions by Congressmen over federal involvement in 1/6 Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) showed Attorney General Merrick Garland videos taken on January 5 and 6 showing a man, who many believe to be undercover federal law enforcement, urging those in Washington, D.C. to attend various protests to physically enter the Capitol building, persisting in his call even amid boos. Garland, with his voice shaking at times, refused to comment. Don't know how to embedd the video but Garland was acting as nervous as a whore at church. Video at link Earlier, National File reported on the instance where Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-TX) questioned Garland on the infamous video revealed by Bobby Powell showing two likely FBI informants who were filmed breaking windows, attacking the building, and even pushing people inside the US Capitol, who have not been charged with any crimes since https://nationalfile.com/ag-ga...domestic-terrorists/ Video from this story This message has been edited.

Already posted in “The riots in America and the attempted overthrow of the United States” But the FBI needs to answer some questions, and we all have the right/need to know their involvement in the events of Jan. 6th. Meet Ray Epps: The Fed-Protected Provocateur Who Appears To Have Led The Very First 1/6 Attack On The U.S. Capitol After months of research, Revolver’s investigative reporting team can now reveal that Ray Epps appears to be among the primary orchestrators of the very first breach of the Capitol’s police barricades at 12:50pm on January 6. Epps appears to have led the “breach team” that committed the very first illegal acts on that fateful day. What’s more, Epps and his “breach team” did all their dirty work with 10 minutes still remaining in President Trump’s National Mall speech, and with the vast majority of Trump supporters still 30 minutes away from the Capitol. Secondly, Revolver also determined, and will prove below, that the the FBI stealthily removed Ray Epps from its Capitol Violence Most Wanted List on July 1, just one day after Revolver exposed the inexplicable and puzzlesome FBI protection of known Epps associate and Oath Keepers leader Stewart Rhodes. July 1 was also just one day after separate New York Times report amplified a glaring, falsifiable lie about Epps’s role in the events of January 6. Lastly, Ray Epps appears to have worked alongside several individuals — many of them suspiciously unindicted — to carry out a breach of the police barricades that induced a subsequent flood of unsuspecting MAGA protesters to unwittingly trespass on Capitol restricted grounds and place themselves in legal jeopardy. Link The night before the “insurrection,” Epps appeared to be encouraging Trump supporters gathered near BLM Square in Washington DC to join him, as he announced that he planned to go “inside the Capitol.” Epps told an unidentified male (fed agent?) “In fact, tomorrow—I’m not even gonna say it because I might be arrested, but tomorrow—We need to go INTO the Capitol!” Trump supporters who could smell a rat shout, “Fed…Fed…Fed!” LinkThis message has been edited.

Fulton County Georgia Ordered More Than One Million Absentee Ballots from Printer Days Before the 2020 Election Knowing There Was No Time to Mail Them Out – Why? With just 10 days until the November 3rd election, there was literally no way to sort, prepare, fold, stuff and mail out the ballots before the election. Especially considering there were no envelopes ordered. This fact alone removes any possibility that they intended to mail the ballots.
