Why waste time over small stuff when bigger intel violations occurred?

Who cares what Comey did with self-authored memos to himself? Considering his ego it wouldn’t be surprising to learn they were all just overblown narcissistic fairytales.

Wasting time over trivialities when more serious crimes were committed would be a big blunder: fraudulent FISA apps, etc, indicate there are bigger issues to address here.

Comey was in the center of it, along with John Brennan, and at the top, Barack Obama.

Open message to AG Barr, re, investigations: F-A-S-T-E-R…PLEASE.

Bottom-line prediction: heads will roll, with BIG crimes leading the list of indictments.

How can they not? Let this sink in:

If an elected President can be unlawfully targeted by law enforcement and intelligence agency partisanship, what American feels safe in their homes from this point on?

Suggestion to Comey: better squirrel away all those book profits…your false-bravado talk is cheap, but the type of lawyers you’ll need soon are gonna be expensive.

If this isn’t ULTIMATE GALL, nothing is…

Today, 2 headlines DEFINE ultimate gall:

“DOJ inspector general: Comey ‘violated’ FBI rules” and then there’s this: “Comey Demands Apology Despite DOJ Watchdog Revealing He Violated FBI Policies”

Got that? Comey violated an FBI employee agreement and policy, but wants apologies.

On second thought, we’re not sure this is ultimate gall…or arrogance.

But, oh wait…then there’s this, at the Gateway Pundit: “Larry C. Johnson: Keep Your Powder Dry, Comey Is Not Out of the Woods Yet” Seems FISA violations are a little more egregious than privately written self-memos, and it’s hanging over his head.

Johnson notes “Jim Comey is stupidly taking a victory lap over this report and insisting that he is vindicated. I once considered Comey to be a smart person. Clearly he is not. He just pretends to be. His behavior today reveals an immaturity and hubris that confirms why he was fired in the first place as FBI Director.”

Which means, when you take into consideration the first two headlines, then add the third – we can run one more ‘ultimate’ descriptive by you, that of…stupidity.

Naming hurricanes should be scientific-based, not personal

Another hurricane, another group claiming name-bias for the hurricanes.

Why are we using people’s names for hurricanes?

A more effective manner of naming would be to use an alpha-numeric system that designates linear progression, hemisphere-specific, and dating: e.g., A*N-19 would be (A – the first hurricane) in the (N – northern hemisphere) during the (19 – 2019 cycle).

In an age where no-one wants to be gender-specific, why use personal names when a more logical, scientific nomenclature can be used to name hurricanes without offense?

Disgraced acting dir of FBI & Hillary have DEFINED the 2-tiered justice system in America

Justice (noun) “…the maintenance or administration of what is just by law…”

Nowhere does the two-tiered justice system get more empirically defined than in the case of Hillary Clinton-&-accomplices versus Donald Trump and his aides.

Two-tiered justice: When some are held accountable to the law, but others are not; as in not indicting Hillary-&-aides where there is solid evidence crimes WERE committed, but indicting Trump aides based on an investigation where there’s no underlying crime.

Andrew McCarthy points this out today: “Hillary Clinton checked every box for a violation of the Espionage Act…Mrs. Clinton’s unlawful storage and transmission of classified information had been patently willful. In contemptuous violation of government standards, which she was bound not only to honor but to enforce as secretary of state, she systematically conducted her government business by private email, via a laughably unsecure homebrew server set-up…Her Obama administration allies stress that it was not her purpose to harm national security, but that was beside the point. The crime was mishandling classified information…she committed it.” (bold, underline added here, and in paragraph excerpts below) 

(And no, ‘intent’ is not noted, or a driver, in the relevant statutes involved…but even if it were, the very act of setting up a private server system DEMONSTRATES intent.)

Yet, Obama’s Justice Dept. refused to charge her, or her aides. (More on that below)

Then, there’s former acting FBI dir. Andrew McCabe: “McCabe is feeling the heat because the evidence that he made false statements is daunting. So daunting, in fact, that even he concedes he did not tell the truth to investigators.” 

But, where Hillary is happy to duck-&-cover, hoping the smoke blows over, McCabe has decided to take it to a whole new level: “McCabe is suing the government for wrongful termination, arguing that he was fired due to a political vendetta carried on by President Trump.” But, McCarthy notes: “…it is an audacious strategy on McCabe’s part to (a) ask the Justice Department to exercise clemency by declining to charge an eminently prosecutable false-statements case against him, while (b) simultaneously hauling the Justice Department into court on an accusation of bad faith in a case in which McCabe leaked and then provided explanations that weren’t true.” 

So, one investigation revealed REAL evidence of a crime…but no indictments; the other investigation revealed NO crime…yet indictments resulted. Two-tiered? You Bet.

And no one benefited more from this two-tiered justice than Hillary and Obama.

Both were using private unsecured email systems. Hillary and aides willfully destroyed subpoenaed emails. One wonders why anyone would so brazenly commit that act, but context may provide the answer: “The destruction of the emails, moreover, occurred after a House Committee investigating the Benghazi massacre issued subpoenas and preservation directives to Clinton’s State Department and Clinton herself.”

What would justify such a clear, undeniable act of deliberate evidence destruction?

If, in fact, then-Sec’y of State Clinton and then-Pres Obama had unsecurely emailed classified data that revealed arms handling around Benghazi, and those emails had been hacked, prompting Benghazi attacks and American deaths as the result…it would have been a political death knell for both Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama.

McCabe can be dealt with swiftly; asking for good-will leniency while suing for bad-faith termination is a losing proposition…but he’s a bit player in a larger scheme. Hillary-&-co., on the other hand, is a different proposition desperately in need of resolution.

Thankfully, there’s a one-acronym solution: N-S-A.

Hillary’s toadies with Bleachbit may have wiped her servers, but the NSA has EVERY email sent over the years in a massive database…and Pres. Trump is its boss.

Americans deserve to know the truth, on Benghazi as well as the 2016 chicanery.

Anything less leads to even greater mistrust of government.

Is it to be EQUAL justice under the law…or 2-tiered justice, based on political Party?

Political expedience should not define what is ‘Just, by law’…should it?

Your move, Mr. President.

When up is down and good is bad…it must be a poll

When it comes to creating a Deep & Boiling Anger…trust NBC to show us how.

(Ed. note: If you’re not reading Issues-&-Insights daily…you should be.)

Polling got you down? Here’s why: “Americans Feel Better About Race Relations, And Other Trump Poll Results The Press Doesn’t Want You To Know About”

“How do you cover a poll that shows satisfaction with the economy, despite all the harrumphing about an impending recession, is much higher than it ever was under President Barack Obama? Or reveals that views on race relations are actually better today than three years ago? Or shows that most think the political system is being shaken up in a good way? Answer: You don’t. That is, if you’re a mainstream media outlet and the poll is your own.”

Instead, you pull poll numbers out of context, to make issues look dark. Case in point:

“Here’s the scary headline NBC News ran on the poll it conducted with the Wall Street Journal and published over the weekend: ‘A deep and boiling anger: NBC/WSJ poll finds a pessimistic America despite current economic satisfaction.’ The really important finding, according to NBC, was that ‘70% of Americans say they’re angry at the political establishment.’ But it turns out that this anger level is unchanged since October 2015. That means the ‘deep and boiling anger’ was happening under Obama. Why isn’t that the headline?” Of course, we all know the answer to that question, right?

When an entire context of a poll doesn’t give a desired result, just delete the context.

Class dismissed.

(It’s well worth the time to read the entire article.)

Here’s a challenge for Never/Anti-Trump’ers, that they’ll grimly avoid

The inestimable Victor Davis Hanson asks today at NRO: “Trump — or What, Exactly?”… it’s a biting piece comparing what he’s done as opposed to Democrats.

The challenge for voters who rail against Pres. Trump comes at the end of the article:

“…we are told that the boisterous Trump, our first president without military or political experience prior to his election, has disgraced the office. In his 30 months since January 2017, how exactly has he done so, at least by the somewhat low bar of past presidential standards? Did Trump conduct liaisons in the presidential bed or restroom or office in the manner of liberal lions such as FDR, JFK, or Bill Clinton? Did he habitually use the N-word or expose himself to staffers, as did the great civil-rights icon LBJ?

Is his terminal health condition now kept from the media in the conspiratorial fashion of Woodrow Wilson or FDR?

Is the Trump Foundation flush with infusions of hundreds of millions of dollars, as was the case with the Clinton Foundation during Hillary’s tenure as secretary of state? Does President Trump have a tendency to get handsy at public events, or come up behind female teenagers or blow in their ears à la Vice President Joe Biden? Did he weaponize the IRS, the DOJ, the FBI, and the CIA the way Obama-administration officials did to sabotage a political opponent’s campaign? Has Attorney General Barr surveilled the communications of AP reporters in the fashion of Eric Holder?

Or perhaps Trump’s twitter crudity is shocking given the sober comportment of his current would-be presidential opponents. Has Trump, then, promised to take Joe Biden behind the gym and physically beat him up, or warned Cory Booker that in a testosterone rage he would beat him up too, as both have bragged about doing to Trump? Did he whip racial animosity in the manner of Elizabeth Warren by falsely alleging that the Ferguson shooting, thoroughly investigated by the Obama Justice Department, was murder?

Has Trump punned about Kamala Harris not coming out of an elevator alive?

Did he egg on Johnny Depp, Madonna, and a host of other creepy celebrity has-beens to brag about the ways to assassinate a president? Would current Democraticprimary leader Joe Biden be willing to take the Montreal Cognitive Assessment Test, given to Trump (who aced it) to remind his critics that he was not demented as they serially alleged?

The progressive party, many past presidents, the media, and Hollywood didn’t need to be schooled by Donald Trump on the arts of crudity, unprofessionalism, and unethical behavior. So what we need are not more pathetic abort-the-Trump-presidency melodramas, or ethical sermons from the abjectly unethical, or “Trump is the worst” this or that from historically ignorant pundits.”

(all bold, underline, color emphasis added)

At the end of the day, Trump critics, it’s just about him being in power…NOT YOU.

And that’s why we don’t expect any honest debate on real issues, from you haters.

‘Cuz you’ve got…N-O-T-H-I-N-G.

CNN defines ‘getting all the liars in the same (news)room’

Disgraced liar Andrew McCabe (former acting FBI Dir) is going to work for CNN, joining disgraced liars Jim Clapper (former Dir Nat’l Intel) and John Brennan (former CIA Dir).

This is a classic example of getting all the liars in the same room. Where’s Jim Comey?

(UPDATE Aug 26 – oops, we goofed: Brennan was signed up by MSNBC, not CNN. Oh well, it would be easy enough to substitute ‘FakeNews’ for CNN in our title line, just to keep it accurate, but what the heck…this way, they can blame us for Fake News.)
