I want us on offense every day.
We need exposure of these seditionists.
No more polite words to describe their perfidy.

Fantastic new, MM! Good for him!

Perhaps we could all agree to convict Kerry under the Logan Act for these recent actions (even though the actual motivation is more his traitorous acts with North Vietnam), quickly execute him, and then apologize that appeals are moot.

"Scott Adams disagrees."

So what? Lots of people agree with you, MM.

Court Deals Another Blow to NY AG Schneiderman in Open Records Case

A New York appellate court again ordered that state’s top cop to pay thousands of dollars in attorney’s fees for improperly denying a request for documents under the state’s Freedom of Information Law.

The unanimous decision from a panel of judges on Thursday supported two previous losses in the same case for Attorney General Eric Schneiderman in which the free-market think tank the Competitive Enterprise Institute sought documents related to a multi-state effort to investigate energy companies for allegedly profiting by "creating misperceptions" about climate change.

Schneiderman announced in March 2016 a cooperative effort with other state attorneys general to investigate fossil-fuel energy companies for their speech related to climate change, shortly after which CEI requested related documents.

Schneiderman's office originally withheld those documents requested, prompting the original lawsuit, which Schneiderman lost. When the think tank sought attorney's fees, the AG lost for a second time.

Jim, I was right there with you right up to "...and then apologize."

Speaking of those conflicts of interest:

In what may be one of the most remarkable conflicts of interest seen in a long time, it appears Steven Wasserman, Assist Atty for the District of Columbia & is the brother of Debbie Wasserman Schultz, has been tasked w/overseeing the investigation of DNC IT employee Imran Awan.

======================

I didn't know about that. It may have been mentioned, but as I have said, there are so many names I am getting lost.

That is a good outcome, Ext. Would be even greater if Schneiderman had to pay with his own money and not the taxpayers'. Once again, the taxpayers get to pay for both sides.

I'm guessing the AG isn't personally responsible for the fees.

Rulings like these underwhelm me. The taxpayers end up paying for these guys malfeasance and they just go and do it again.

"A New York appellate court again ordered that state’s top cop to pay thousands of dollars in attorney’s fees for improperly denying a request for documents under the state’s Freedom of Information Law."

Anyone think he would pay these out of his pocket?

Everyone involved needs to be fired, IMO>

Old Lurker

MM, that has been known for quite some time. There are so many moving targets it is difficult to track them all.

Which of course is a strategy.

Appalled, as usual you are wrong. RODHAM's criminality was over looked and swept under the rug by the FBI. Her aids got immunity and gave nothing in return, Rodham was interviewed by STRZOK, a HUGE supporter of RODHAMS, no transcript or recording was generated. What was generated is a EXONERATION prior to being interviewed. Comeys wife and daughters are all HILLARY GIRLS, and Comey apparently is too.
NONE OF THAT HAS ANY RELEVANCE TO TRUMP. They wanted RODHAM in the WHITE HOUSE, and they were sure she was going to win. To critically assess Rodham's criminality would be devastating to all of the FBI'S 7th floor should she win. And then there is THE INSURANCE POLICY.
Thanks for weighing in on the matter, but it is CRYSTAL CLEAR that the top of the FBI was AIDING RODHAM for their own futures.
Now that Comey, McCabe, Strzok, Page, Ohr, etc had been exposed as HACKS and PARTISANS, the COUP had to bebig...

INSURANCE POLICY.

MM @ 10:53

It's things like that, that make me distrust (maybe even despise) AG Sessions.

There is no reason on Earth for Wasserman to still be employed at DoJ, period. To have him involved in any way (let alone leading!) a criminal investigation that heavily involves and likely implicated his sister, ought to be totally unacceptable.

The fact that Sessions is allowing it to happen is, by itself, grounds for him to be fired and run out of town.

Happy Birthday jimmyk!

I caught Levin's show last night and thought Bongino was on fire. Well worth the watch and Bongino briefly touches on Mueller being involved with the original U1 investigation or precursor to U1 as he called it. I know it was linked on the last page but here it is again for those interested in the real deal.

MM, ( know DWS's bro was in the US Atty's office here. I do not have any evidence he handled the Awan case. Anyone can post anything on teitter.

Republican committees can carp all they like about Deputy Attorney General Rosenstein. The buck stops with the president.

You can infer possible explanations for what is going on both from Trump's actions/words as well as his inactions.

The Boyd letter to Nunes was clearly staffed thru the White House before the DOJ notified Nunes they were not going to comply with his request for info. Trump could have easily ordered Sessions or Rosenstein to fully comply with ALL of Congress' requests to include those from Grassley and Goodlatte. Trump has yet to exercise the full authority he possesses to order the DOJ to comply despite giving warnings on Twitter just this past week that he could.

Why hasn't Trump ordered the DOJ/FBI to fully comply with Congress? Why hasn't Trump fired Rosenstein for "stonewalling" Congress? You would think if Rosenstein was part of the Deep State/Swamp cabal trying to destroy Trump that Trump would be smart enough to realize that and get rid of his ass. Why wasn't Rosenstein fired a long time ago?

Old Lurker

Just add it to the list, James. As I said to MM, this is old news which got ignored at least two times in the past when it was mentioned.

I meant to add, note the 26:00 min mark.

This tweet has a 54-second video of Lauterbrennan, Switzerland. I am posting it simply because it is beautiful. Check out the multiple cascading waterfalls from the high cliffs overlooking the town!

Comey did not play both ends against the middle, he tried to help RODHAM. Even in his failure and ridicule, he won't say the truth.

Appalled, what reason did COMEY have ,for reopening the RODHAM CRIMINALITY REVIEW shortly before the ELECTION.

This is a tap in, even for you......

MM...🎉Great news @ 10:37, re: your nephew's deserved success !!
Kinda sounds like he may fall along the Autism spectrum. So many are not DX properly--called "learning disabled" instead of learning "differently", and their success--over mis-labeling, exclusion, ' in limitus' type teaching---should be celebrated , BIGLY 😉
Relay my Congratulations. Please !!!

I am registered as a Repuke in Ahia.

Can't stomach DeWine and am afraid Taylor is too much like Katshit.

Am I missing anything?

Probably not; both of them are trying to out MAGA the other one so if either is a Katshit in disguise it would be low even by Ahia GOPe standards. I think I'm voting for Taylor just because DeWine has been around too long.
