    Trump’s withdrawal of troops from Germany is a parting ‘gift’ to Putin


    has the added benefit of angering a staunch U.S. ally much to the delight of the Russian strongman.

    re-election prospects are in “freefall,”

    “the gift that keeps on giving for the Kremlin:

    his unpredictability, while often a pain,

    for them is continual grist for their propaganda mill.”

    the president’s contentious relationship with Germany’s Angela Merkel who he considers a rival on the world stage,

    which has led to several years of confrontations.

    “The reality is Trump has bullied German Chancellor Angela Merkel from the get-go, and

    not just on Germany’s sub-par defence spending commitment of 1.38% of GDP,

    but about exports of BMW cars and trade in general,” he wrote.

    “At their first meeting in the White House in spring 2017

    the President barely looked Merkel in the eye,

    refusing to shake her hand;

    at a NATO summit in 2018 he berated her over breakfast.

    And now this.”

    the reality leaves allies rattled and runs counter to the US’s long-term benefit;

    “He is simultaneously enabling Russian President Vladimir Putin,

    a strategic foe who is already on the offensive,

    while disabling allies vital in that same fight.

    It is a double own goal,

    typical of a US President who insists on playing by his own rules.

    Statement of Assistant Attorney General for National Security John C. Demers on the Public Release of the Department’s Findings with Respect to the 29 FISA Applications that Were the Subject of the March 2020 OIG Preliminary Report

    Assistant Attorney General for National Security John C. Demers stated:

    “The Department of Justice has completed its review of the 29 FISA applications that were the subject of preliminary findings by the DOJ Inspector General (OIG) in March 2020. We are pleased that our review of these applications concluded that all contained sufficient basis for probable cause and uncovered only two material errors, neither of which invalidated the authorizations granted by the FISA Court. These findings, together with the more than 40 corrective actions undertaken by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the National Security Division, should instill confidence in the FBI’s use of FISA authorities.

    without that peg removed, it's hard to see where TSA hangs the Obamagate conspiracy cloak, but I'm sure he'll be back soon to remind us.

    That makes the Carter Page applications even more damning.

    “We identified at least 17 significant errors or omissions in the Carter Page FISA applications.”

    Two of them material, neither of which invalidated the applications. Sufficient probable cause existed for all of them according to Trump's DOJ.

    You can take exception of course, but DOJ has the last word.

    And what does any of that have to do with the Carter Page apps? I don’t think you realize what you’re posting.

    Finding 2 material errors out of 29 applications (not the Carter Page applications) and having 17 errors/omissions on Carter Page alone is damning.

    Trump Fears Next Election Will Be Decided by Americans



    WASHINGTON —Donald J. Trump is “scared to death” that the 2020 Presidential election will be decided by Americans, an aide to Trump has confirmed.


    The aide, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, said that Trump is panicking over

    a doomsday scenario in which Americans, sidelined during the 2016 election, play a dominant role in influencing the 2020 contest.


    “It sounds paranoid, but, as we speak,

    representatives of the United States are already plotting to remove him from office in 2020,” the aide said.

    “They are determined to replace him with someone who takes a move favorable view toward their country.”


    The aide said that the Americans, frustrated by Trump’s open hostility to the United States since taking office,

    will “stop at nothing” to achieve their ultimate goal: installing an agent of the U.S. in the Oval Office.


    “It’s pretty clear what the Americans are up to,” the aide said.

    “They want a puppet who will do the bidding of the United States of America.”


    While Trump has reportedly ordered his staff to do everything in its power to prevent Americans from meddling in the 2020 election,

    the prospect of U.S. nationals deciding the next Presidential race has clearly left the White House rattled.


    “Americans are going to use voter registration, social media, and anything else at their disposal

    to hand the election to someone who will advance their interests,”
    he said.

    “That’s what keeps Trump up at night.”

    Audit found only minor FBI errors in FISA warrants

    An internal audit of 29 warrant applications submitted by the FBI to the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court found only minor clerical errors in a process that has come under heavy political scrutiny in recent years.

    stem from an independent review of the FBI's application process for surveillance warrants by Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz.

    the FBI had made more than a dozen errors in its applications to look into Carter Page,

    the internal review looked over "hundreds of pages of facts contained in the 29 applications audited by the Office of the Inspector General" and

    found "only one material misstatement and one material omission."


    "The complete absence in the twenty-nine applications of material errors impacting probable cause

    should instill confidence in the FBI's use of its FISA authorities,"

    Trump Threatens Mail-In Voting Executive Order

    “I have the right to do it,” President Donald Trump said, though he did not say what such a measure would entail.

    As more states consider action to protect voters' health, the administration takes Nevada to court over its move toward universal mail-in ballots.


    Politico: Trump Claims Right To Issue Executive Order On Vote-By-Mail

    President Donald Trump on Monday claimed to have the authority to issue an executive order addressing the expected influx of mail-in voting in the November election and said he hadn’t ruled out doing so,

    in spite of the Cons ution’s expressly giving states the right to run their elections.


    “I have the right to do it,” Trump insisted, adding:

    “We haven’t got there yet, but we’ll see what happens.”

    The beauty part of being a hypocrite is never apologizing. Brazenness has a swagger to it: impunity.

    of course in this, as in so many other gambits, Trump's malevolence is tempered by his administrative and legal incompetence. He's likely to lose the challenges, but he will have succeeded in kicking up dust about the legitimacy of the election in any case.

    calling it out seems to ruffle feathers, as well

    When will you just suc b to the fact that hypocrisy is the one constant on these forums and stop clutching your pearls every time someone illustrates it to you again? You've made a posting career talking about it.

    Lolol


    Leningrad Lindsey’s “hearing” falls under the

    ”be careful who you call to testify under oath to try and discredit”

    because you might not want to really hear what they say -

    especially when you are on russia’s side and trumps side and are complicit in russias attack on our democracy.


    Most career pros are just like Sally Yates- they all are more than happy to testify because they have nothing to hide and if they made a mistake


    it is NOT in the same universe as....


    Being in bed with the Russians.
