Truth is coming! I like it!
I hope the Prez follows through on declassifying the FISA docs. He may not want to step on his own victory too soon, but I think he should get it done while his opponents are still shell shocked from the Mueller backfire. Boom! You're done! Then he can concentrate on the positive messages that will actually win over Democrat voters who should be Republicans. He's probably got the most loyal base a President has ever had. Now he needs to expand the party in ways that will outlast his presidency.

Thanks to AG releasing the full Mueller report with very, very few redactions we can see the plan of the left/uniparty in all its glory. Since the beginning, they sought to frame Trump with gossip, rumor, and six degrees of separation. The flimsy report shows all of this.
Posted by: MissMarple2 | April 21, 2019 at 10:08 AM
JMH, I don't see FISA documents release as a boom. It's more like a right cross counter that will stagger the Coup Brigade, which will then be saved from a knockout by Oligarch Media. Oligarch Media may not be as strong as it was in the days of Uncle Walter, but OM will still keep a significant proportion of likely voters unfocused on the reality that the Obama Administration used DNC and HRC oppo research to hoke up rationalizations for spying on the Trump campaign. I think the main impact will be to blunt further the Coup Brigade's attempt to oust Trump, and perhaps to bring a few more persuadable voters in key electoral college states to punch the chads or fill in the ovals or pull the lever for Trump in 2020. On the bright side, bringing over a few persuadables itself may be the difference between four more years of Trump-Pence and a 2021 inauguration of the Comrade and the Buti boy.

TK, my amazement at Trump's reaction is how mild it was. After an expletive, Trump then gave a pithy take on how SCs adversely affect a POTUS's ability to do the job. Obama in a similar situation most likely would have had his supporters in the FBI and intelligence community start digging up dirt on the SC.

MT, I was hoping against hope the painters would finish on time to support your timeline. Glad you have your instructor lined up.
I've never had Athena at a paint shop. She was built and registered in Canada when I bought her in 2001. She had ginormous call sign painted on the bottom of the wing, probably 2' tall letters, and 6" tall on the vertical stab and rudder. Wanting more to fly than spend money having it professionally done up, I took out a paint brush and in a couple minutes gave the previous call sign the whiteout treatment. It's not pretty but it did the trick.
Yesterday I flew in the windiest conditions ever landing with 40 degree crosswind 15 kts gusting to 22. That's not a big deal for most pilots but it's a personal best for me. My instructor, in the adjacent hangar came out to congratulate me on flying saying there's only one way to learn and that's to go out and do it. I fly about 50 hours a year so I spend more time maintaining my skill than expanding it.

"On November 10, 1942, Winston Churchill gave a speech celebrating the first British victory over the Nazis in World War II, at the Battle of El Alamein. Here’s the famous quote in context:
”Rommel’s army has been defeated. It has been routed. It has been very largely destroyed as a fighting force.
This battle was not fought for the sake of gaining positions or so many square miles of desert territory. General Alexander and General Montgomery fought it with one single idea. They meant to destroy the armed force of the enemy and to destroy it at the place where the disaster would be most far-reaching and irrecoverable.
Now this is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end. But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning.”
That is where we and the President are now. Trump has won a battle, not a war. To win that war, he must destroy the enemy with disaster that is the most far-reaching and irrecoverable.
Democrats and their media propagandists really are the enemy of America. As Breitbart documents this morning, they are tripling down on their attacks on the President. The only way he and Attorney General Barr are going to survive is to go on the attack with a full court prosecutorial press on the entire cabal of treasonous coup-plotters.
Last night on Hannity – sorry, I can’t get the video clip – Sara Carter predicted an “avalanche” of indictments of the coup-plotters, Sara saying her sources tell her “people are already turning on each other – senior officials at the FBI and DOJ are throwing their colleagues under the bus to save themselves.”
Greg Jarrett followed by naming names: “If I were James Comey, Andrew McCabe, Peter Strzok, Brennan, Clapper, I wouldn’t be sleeping very well tonight, and for many nights to come.”
Congressman Devin Nunes has delivered up to two dozen criminal referrals to Barr DOJ requesting prosecution for the plotters.

“President Trump has been fully and completely exonerated yet again. Now the tables have turned, and it’s time to investigate the liars who instigated this sham investigation into President Trump, motivated by political retribution and based on no evidence whatsoever.
Now that the collusion and obstruction conspiracy theories have been exposed for the pathetic hoaxes they always were, the Obama-era DOJ and FBI must answer for their misdeeds and the scam that they perpetrated against the American people. Justice will be served.”

For the resident oenophiles, last night was my alma mater’s biennial athletic association auction/gala. One of silent auction lots was six 2000 vintage bottles of Bordeaux: Ch. Lafite , Ch. Latour, Ch. Margaux, VCC, and two other second growths I can’t recall.
As I’m on a wine buying moratorium, I didn’t bid but this very nice, attractive younger couple were loitering around the lot and we started talking wine (of course). They were from Twin Falls, so asked them if they knew Dr. H and his wife, R. She shrieked with laughter: the two couples are besties! Dr. H is even bigger wine hound than I (well, not by much...) Turns out the two couples were bidding together. I gave them some of the wine magnum I brought to the gig and she kept swinging by our table for refills and updates on the auction lot. They won the lot and now we’re all planning a big dinner in Sun Valley to open one or two (or all!) this summer. Serendipity. 😬

I don't want to hear much from Obama or Kerry ever again, but I would enjoy hearing them trying to say "National Thowheeth Jama'ath."

I'd like to see just one country retaliate against all Muslims for stuff like this. They could even issue a preemptive warning. "If any of your fellow Muslims initiates a terror attack, you're all going to pay for it." And then do it. Arrest all Imams, burn down their mosques, whatever. Something that hurts them all.
The only answer is for Muslims to police their own, which they almost never do. They need to be motivated to cancel the Jihad.

A comedian wins the election for President of Ukraine, making him the first Jew as President of any country outside of Israel. The PM is also Jewish, putting to death the Russian trope that Ukraine are Nazis.

Jack,
I wonder if Ikrainians have Never Alenskyers, like we have Never Trumpers.
Here is David French lecturing us today, of all days:

If I understand him correctly, if we get angry at his attacks on Trump, it's because he is right and we feel guilty for compromising our faith.
What a creep French is!

Clarice,
Yeah, but most often than not the Daily Mail seriously gets a lot their news about America downright wrong or biased. Plus a lot of their reports are written by robots.
