Judicial Watch: GOP Mouthpiece?

You did not need to be a "stable genius" (Trump coinage) to quickly discern that Judicial Watch, and its President, Thomas Fitton, are highly conservative and basically a mouthpiece for the GOP. Simply listen to the rhetoric and blatant inaccuracies. "Officially," JW is "an American conservative...

Kayleigh McEnany & Price Of Eggs 4

...regardless of the evidence against him, and without even bothering to call any witnesses - which "rebounded so horribly, publicly, and spectacularly" (thanks to Trump's former key staffer, John Bolton). The Democrat on the panel reminded McEnany of the evidence & what history will show/document.

Kayleigh McEnany & Price Of Eggs 3

...Trump. Other great lines by the Trump-backing dynamic duo included this was "a sham" & not a bi-partisan effort, oblivious (wink wink) to the fact that McConnell, Cruz et. al. took, as some observers noted, what amounted to "a political blood oath" - here, a pledge to acquit the President...

Kayleigh McEnany & Price Of Eggs 2

Sure, a notable poll showed "a majority view each of the charges on which Trump is facing trial as TRUE." But McEnany was focusing on the price of eggs with quips like (i) Democrats will pay for this in the 2020 election; & (ii) voters should be made aware who the Democrats are that voted against...

Kayleigh McEnany & Price Of Eggs

Sadly comical (but understandable) to watch McEnany (national press secretary for the Trump 2020 presidential campaign) on "Fox News @ Night", along with a GOP Senator commenting on the impeachment trial. Sure, nearly every significant assertion in thewhistleblower complaint has been confirmed.

Best Pres. Trump Defence Advice 3

...who has mocked the mostly Democratic front-runner, Joe Biden, & claims he's not worried about him in 2020, he sure has gone to great/bizarre lengths to get "dirt" on him (think: Zelensky, just make a public announcement of an investigation; Guliani, diGenova, Toensing & maybe others in Ukraine).

Best Pres. Trump Defence Advice 2

..to the press, and European allies were stunned. President Bush basically put away the file in his desk drawer. President Trump should similarly take the GOP "Dirty Politicking Playbook" and TRY to put it away. This way, no basis for Mueller Reports/Impeachment Proceedings, etc. Also, for a man...

Best Pres. Trump Defence Advice

With respect to President Trump's complaints about investigations & impeachment, simple advice: Try to do like President George H.W. Bush after Paul Wolfowitz & other hawks presented a draft for a new, basically preemptive strike foreign policy, where controversy erupted after a draft was leaked...

Trump Team Legal Gymnastics/polls 2

..things that are illegal, either while in office or when running for President; slightly more say probably or definitely done things that are unethical" (Pew Research poll). In a related story (as Letterman et al. would say), the sun will rise tomorrow. Also, would be great to get minority version!

Trump Team Legal Gymnastics/polls

As President Trump's defence team goes through their comical legal gymnastics to try & give something to GOP Senators to sell to their base for their predetermined / publicly stated coming vote to acquit, there is this: "Almost two-thirds of Americans believe Trump has definitely or probably done...

Trump Impeachment Hearing

Mr, Watters, the lying in the impeachment trial is over the top. What we need is anyone giving testimony at the hearing should be under oath, for it is a trial. Anyone who then lies going forward, has perjured themselves! Maybe an act of perjury and the consequence for that, may bring more honesty.

"Shifty" Schiff/Dems Case & Polls 4

...absolutely nothing! As for those polls Watters likes to point to when in the President's favour, note: (1) 72% want to see new witnesses testify; (2) a majority view each of the charges on which Trump is facing trial as TRUE; & (3) half say Senate should vote to convict & remove him from office.

"Shifty" Schiff/Dems Case & Polls 3

...the President's other "FOX News counsel", Jesse Watters, has often noted calling Hunter Biden as a witness. This one too easy for the Harvard educated Schiff: President's legal team knows the Chief Justice would rule against them because what does Hunter have to do with the charges against Trump?

"Shifty" Schiff/Dems Case & Polls 2

..why not let Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts rule on a question of materiality for ANY witness? As he noted: "Not surprisingly, the president's team was vehemently opposed. Not because the President's team doesn't trust the Chief Justice to make an impartial decision, but because they do."

"Shifty" Schiff/Dems Case & Polls

So, Sean ("exculpatory evidence") Hannity, still adjudicating & prosecuting alleged wrongdoing by Democrats that no one else is...(still Durham Report to come!), likes to poke fun at Adam Schiff ("Shifty", "pencil neck", etc.). But, interesting to see Schiff lay out, e.g., the case for witnesses:...

Intelligence Disconnect IV

..."President told associates he assassinated Soleimani in part to appease Republican senators who will play a crucial role in his Senate impeachment trial."...Oddly, the President would've been better served if he had simply cited Soleimani's involvement in any number of attacks against the U.S.

Intelligence Disconnect II

Sure, we've heard of the reported "15,000 false or misleading statements over 1,055 days" (SOURCE: fact checker) that the President has rolled out. And now, we are hearing things like: (i) "Trump administration’s shifting lines on Qasem Soleimani’s ‘imminent threat’"; (ii) Defense Secretary Esper...

Intelligence Disconnect

Now, while no individual in a civilized nation would mourn the taking out of a terrorist mastermind (I had 3 posts on events of the past week below), I was hopeful that the "intelligence" that President Trump cited to FOX's Laura Ingraham on Friday, as a premise for his actions, was FULLY accurate.
