As you listen to this please keep in mind that Devin Nunes is the Ranking Member, former Chairman, of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence. Devin Nunes is increasing his warning tone and signals to Americans.
All nuance, pretense and subtlety is now being dropped. Rep. Nunes is openly stating that FBI officials and FISA judges are working together with the *intent* to conspire againstthe American people. Pause, and let this sink in…. slowly.
Former AG Michael Mukasey appears on Fox News for an interview with Maria Bartiromo. As Mukasey walks through the purpose and intents behind the Lisa Page and Peter Strzok text messages what he outlines is really the motive for Ms. Page to be suing the DOJ and the reason why current FBI Director Chris Wray is covering for them.
Additionally, Mukasey explains the unlawful activity behind HPSCI Chairman Adam Schiff gaining the phone records of Devin Nunes, Rudy Giuliani and John Solomon. The only thing he didn’t mention is that AT&T owns a primary impeachment stakeholder, CNN.
.
BIG PICTURE – Lisa Page’s lawsuit is not about a breech of privacy; that’s the excuse. Lisa Page is working with her Lawfare allies to block the release of unredacted text messages between her and Peter Strzok. The totality of the communication outlines the context of the FBI conspiracy during the 2016 election. That *conspiracy* is what FBI Director Christopher Wray was put in place to hide.
DAG Rosenstein recommended Chris Wray for that exact purpose. Wray then hired David Bowditch as his deputy. Bowditch was/is compromised by his former role in the San Bernadino terrorist attack. Wray then hired Dana Boente as FBI legal counsel. Boente was/is compromised by his prior role in the DOJ-NSD FISA effort, and his role in the capture of Julian Assange to cover-up the false claim of the Russia DNC hack.
Former Congressman and Fox News contributor Trey Gowdy and the Wall Street Journal’s Kim Strassel react to Jim Comey’s wounded tender sensibilities during Fox News Sunday “interview” with Chris Wallace.
Former FBI Director James Comey appears on Fox News for a defensive narrative building session with his ally in fraud, Chris Wallace. The topic is how the FBI under Comey’s leadership manipulated the FISA process and lied, repeatedly, to the FISA court in order to gain technically legal surveillance authority over his political opposition.
Wallace presents a high-level review, intentionally absent of specific details, providing sanctimonious Comey with the opportunity for professional deflection and obfuscation. Comey repeats his well rehearsed points providing plausible deniability to the questions; proving once again he is a manipulative liar, devoid of intellectual honesty, and without an ounce of integrity. Mr. Comey “doesn’t understand” a lot of things…
This is the former Director of the FBI. The FBI has a decades-long history of gross inefficiency in stopping terrorist attacks on U.S. soil; now we see why. In essence, Comey admits the FBI is a rogue federal agency without any direction or oversight. The focus of the DC institutional effort is to refine their skills explaining why they fail.
Rudy Giuliani went to Ukraine and reported back to the president. He has plenty of evidence in hand, and it’s obvious to anyone with a brain—Creepy Joe Biden is corrupt to the marrow.
Biden’s son, Hunter, landed a $50,000 per month position with Barisma, a corrupt Ukrainian gas company. Even though Hunter’s experience amounts to nothing more than sniffing cocaine and impregnating stripper club girls, he was appointed to the board of a company to which had zero experience.
It’s graft, folks. You know it, I know it, Trump knows it, and soon everyone will know it. It’s why the Democrats want to impeach Trump. They know it runs deeper than Biden. Too many Democrats dipped into the corruption trough made possible under Obama. The Democrats are rotten to the core, and that’s why the impeachment procedure is happening. It’s their last, dying gasp to stop people from seeing just how swampily rotten they truly are.
Trump is just the fourth president in the history of the United States to have articles of impeachment get this far. Of course, this is really just politics as evident by the party-line vote. With Nixon, there were votes on the issue that did not follow the party-line. This will be remembered as perhaps the straw that broke civilization for this action is simply polarizing the politics and there is no going back. This will not save the day for the Democrats in the 2020 election and may even have serious implications.
The impeachment is now out of committee and on the way to the House floor. The politics has become so hateful at this point we will see the House vote next week on these articles and if the Democrats fail to come to their senses, the House will pass on a simple majority and it will go to the Senate.
Trump will be the third president to have been impeached by the House. An impeached president has never been convicted and removed from office by the Senate. The chance of that remains extremely low. The Democrats will use this in 2020 and claim that they should be voted-in because the Republicans obstructed justice, which they define as simply their personal hatred of Trump for beating Hillary.
The outcome of this is more akin to lighting a match in a room full of gas. This will only result in the further fragmentation of the nation ensuring we are headed into a complete breakdown of the principles of democracy going into 2032
U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer has released a two-page summary fact sheet [pdf link here] outlining the “Phase-One” agreement in principal. From research into the material the principal agreement appears to be an 86-page document covering nine chapters. The fact sheet covers the top lines of seven chapters:
(Source pdf – and – USTR Link)
For undisclosed reasons (we can guess, but probably shouldn’t on this one) the 86-page agreement is unlikely to be made public until after the USMCA completes the ratification process in congress (both chambers).
Given the politics in China, and Beijing’s position following the U.S. resolution vis-a-vis Hong Kong, it is doubtful there will be a high level signing ceremony. Chairman Xi would appear weak internally as dominant President Trump would be seen as digging Eagle claws into vulnerable dragon. Vice-Premier Liu He and USTR Lighthizer are likely to be visible faces.
It remains in President Trump’s strategic interests for Beijing to refuse being committed to granular specifics. In a very unusual way ‘uncertainty‘ actually works in favor of the U.S. objective within this trade dynamic as future investment in China will be tenuous without those specifics. An unstable ‘status quo’ is an advantage to Trump.
Because President Trump has flipped the leverage dynamic; and because hundreds of manufacturers are seeking alternatives to the risk China represents; the historic cunning and duplicity -China’s forte’- that creates distrust, actually works in favor of the U.S.
While many multinational investor interests will be watching, waiting, to see if China will (for the first time) live up to their words, President Trump will be providing alternatives and incentives…. while highlighting stability in North America.
The stock market responded exactly as would be expected on Friday to the announcement of the ‘phase-one’ agreement in principal… the market didn’t buy it, because everything remains tenuous at best. This is an indication the multinationals would/will be more likely to follow the alternatives the USMCA provides.
The Wall Street multinationals not responding favorably is a very good sign. This predicts an ongoing decoupling, which is exactly President Trump’s goal.
It really is remarkable. No-one else could have pulled this off.
Two years ago the Democrats were saying President Trump was being too hard on China… too disruptive to the world economy… Now those same Democrats say he’s not being hard enough; without realizing that’s exactly what President Trump wants them to say…
You gotta laugh.
Two years ago the Wall Street financial pundits were apoplectic, demanding President Trump resolve the China issue so they could get back to business…. President Trump now provides a resolution and those same financial voices are saying: meh, no thanks; we’ll wait to see what better stuff you’ve got planned; North America looks pretty good.
Too darned funny.
.
President Trump, Secretary Ross, Secretary Mnuchin and especially Robert Lighthizer will likely never get the full credit they deserve… but hey, then again, tell me the last time you knew the name of the United States Trade Ambassador?
Merry Christmas!
Deep and compelling discussion between Victor Davis Hanson and Epoch Times’ Jan Jekielek about President Trump, his effectiveness, and an overall era of apoplexy amid the left as President Trump deconstructs the progressive agenda.
It’s an hour long interview that goes into a much more complex discussion; but it’s also well presented, explained and well worth the time to watch:
Today President Trump attended the Army Navy game at Lincoln Field in Philadelphia. The Commander-in-Chief visited both teams in their locker room prior to the start of the game.
.
The stadium erupted with applause during the introduction and coin toss (video below); and then an act of serendipity or planning? (I think planning)…. at the conclusion of the coin toss, when POTUS was leaving the field, the stadium played The Rocky theme.
.
PHILADELPHIA – President Donald Trump participated in the coin toss at the 120th Army-Navy football game at Lincoln Financial Field to a round of applause from the crowd Saturday.
The president stood on the field with representatives from both service academies during the national anthem and then walked to midfield, waving at supporters on his way. Trump stood on the Navy sideline, wearing his red cap, as the team ran onto the field before kickoff.
Trump walked out to midfield for the coin toss, with security personnel roping off the area. Trump was introduced to a round of applause from the crowd and tossed the coin.
Navy called tails and won the toss.
The president watched the first half from the Army side with Defense Secretary Mark Esper and other military leaders, according to the official pool report.
Trump crossed over to the Navy side at halftime. Some audience members chanted, “Commander in chief” and “Trump we love you” was also heard. A couple dozen people in uniform chanted, “Four more years!” (read more)
Likely the Navy side was extra happy this year with the strength of support President Trump has given the SEALs.
Even though it’s Philly where they play it all the time; playing the Rocky theme while POTUS was on field was cool.
Jeff Van Drew is a democrat congressman from New Jersey CD-02. According to multiple media reports he is likely to switch to the republican party next week due to the fraudulent impeachment effort. Van Drew was one of two democrats who did not support the vote for the impeachment inquiry.
According to Politico Democrat leadership are in a panic and urgently trying to get ahold of Van Drew. The optics of a democrat changing parties at the same time they are trying to sell the validity of an impeachment narrative are terrible.
[…] Van Drew’s congressional and campaign staff were informed he was planning to switch parties on Saturday, according to Democratic sources. The question was now when, not if, Van Drew was joining the Republican Party, according to several Democrats with knowledge of the ongoing conversations.
As of Saturday afternoon, it was still unclear if Van Drew would make the announcement before the House votes on impeachment, which is expected Wednesday.
“It was supposed to be bipartisan, it was supposed to be incontrovertible. It was supposed to be something that was always on the rarest of circumstances,” Van Drew told reporters about impeachment earlier this week. “Well it’s not bipartisan.” (read more)
