#Pie Gate? RU Kidding Me?

Real pie, fake news? 

White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders shared a maybe too good to be true photo of a pecan pie she says she made for Thanksgiving.  Internet conspiracy theorists jumped in saying it was a stock photo of a pie.

White House correspondent April Ryan egged on the sweet debate calling on Sanders to show her cooking and people eating the said pie.  In the end, Sanders never offered definitive proof of an actual pie, but she offered something rather sweet to get the press pool off her back.

WHY DOES APRIL RYAN STILL HAVE A PRESS CREDENTIAL?

‘OF COURSE I MADE THE PIE’: Sarah Huckabee Sanders Speaks to Todd Starnes About April Ryan #PieGate Accusations

Ryan went so far as to demand Sanders bake her a pie to prove herself but said she would not eat it, accusing Sanders of wanting to poison White House reporters.

Sanders’ father, former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee, spoke out about #PieGate earlier Saturday, using his trademark political humor: “Did @PressSec really bake the pie? YES! But Robert Mueller has subpoenaed the pie and @WhiteHouse counsel and @realDonaldTrump are expected to be interrogated as will members of @SarahHuckabee family.”

Pud Yankin’ Franken

OK, the title’s stupid. What do you want? Shakespeare?
I have to say that Franken is one of the slimiest mouth breathers that inhabit the sewers of D.C. Can’t stand him, never could. He’s done one successful thing in his miserable life and that was write a book, the first two words of which were ‘Rush Limbaugh.’

It became public knowledge yesterday that he’s a pig. In a 24-hour period there’s been so much said about this jerk, I’ll try to recap as succinctly as I can, even though brevity is not my strong suit.

Democrat Senator Al Franken latest to get hit with sexual abuse allegations

On Thursday, model and sports commentator Leeann Tweeden accused Democrat Minnesota Sen. Al Franken of groping her “without my consent” during a USO tour of Vietnam in Dec 2006, and she provided photo evidence of the assault.
“He repeated that actors really need to rehearse everything and that we must practice the kiss. I said ‘OK’ so he would stop badgering me. We did the line leading up to the kiss and then he came at me, put his hand on the back of my head, mashed his lips against mine and aggressively stuck his tongue in my mouth.”

BUT WAIT!! THERE’S MORE!!!

A second female accuser is coming forward with accusation that Al Franken ‘stalked and harassed’ her

Former radio host Melanie Morgan stated that she will be coming forward with her own accusations against Franken soon.

“I didn’t realize his creepy behavior after the show meant it would continue in the days to come.

“He approached Carol, the show’s producer and demanded my home phone number, which was a clear violation of network protocol. I had thought that was the end of the story and was shocked when he started calling my home, badgering me repeatedly.”

Morgan said Franken finally left her alone, but only after she pushed back and threatened “to call the police and make a report that he was harassing me.”

To this day, she says she is haunted by it: “I never forgot that experience and it informed me of his lack of character and obsessive personality. I believe every word Leann wrote.”

That Time Franken Joked About Raping a CBS Reporter
As a comedian and writer for “Saturday Night Live,” Al Franken was quoted in a 1995 New York Magazine article discussing a joke for the show about raping CBS reporter Lesley Stahl.

“’I give the pills to Lesley Stahl. Then when Lesley is passed out, I take her to the closet and rape her.’ Or ‘That’s why you never see Lesley until February.’ Or, ‘When she passes out. I put her in various positions and take pictures of her,’” Franken was quoted saying.

Al Franken Once Joked About Al-Qaeda Assassinating President Bush

In 2004, Al Franken told the sign-language interpreter working at the Republican convention that he should have communicated to Al-Qaeda how to sneak into the White House to assassinate President George Bush.

Hot Air’s Ed Morrissey had this to say about the tasteless joke back in 2008:

“I can already hear the objections. Franken is a satirist! He was joking! He’s paid to make people laugh! Er, yeah … but then Franken was also a political commentator, and now he wants to serve in the US Senate, so his judgment in this is fair game.”

Al Franken’s Brother Was USO Tour Photographer When Groping Photo Taken

Tweeden recounted that it wasn’t until the end of the tour and she was back in the U.S. that she received “the CD of photos we were given by the photographer” and found the photo of Franken reaching his hands for her chest while she was asleep.
“I couldn’t believe it. He groped me, without my consent, while I was asleep,” wrote Tweeden. “I felt violated all over again. Embarrassed. Belittled. Humiliated. How dare anyone grab my breasts like this and think it’s funny?”

Footage of Al Franken Making BABY RAPE Joke Resurfaces Amid Sexual Assault Allegations

Amid sexual harassment allegations made by model and actress Leeann Tweeden against Al Franken, footage of the Democrat Senator cracking a vile baby rape joke at Rob Reiner’s Comedy Central Roast in 2000 has resurfaced.

“On a typical night, Carl [Reiner] would slip into Rob’s bed, roll him over, swab him down and say something like, ‘I’m thinking about hiring Morey Amsterdam to play Buddy Sorrell, what do you think?’” Franken said as Reiner blurted out, “Oh, Jesus.”

“Well, the success of The Dick Van Dyke Show changed things dramatically, Carl started inviting many of his famous friends to fuck his son,” Franken continued.

“That list includes some of the greats in comedy: Paul Lynde, Dom DeLuise, Rip Taylor, Danny Kaye.”

Democrat Al Franken Grabbed Joy Behar’s Breasts Too

[CtH: Joy is clearly enjoying the grabbing jokes. She’s got a helluva nerve getting all moral about any Republican’s behavior.  Ditto: Whoopi “rape rape” Goldberg.]

‘The View’ Pivots To Trump While Discussing Allegations Against Franken
The women of “The View” gave Franken credit for apologizing and then Joy Behar tried to switch the conversation to talk about Trump.

“What about Trump, his people are saying that those women who accused him are liars!” Behar exclaimed.

Conservative panelist Meghan McCain responded, “Oh my god, this isn’t about Trump right now though,” clearly fed up with Behar’s insistence on making every conversation about the president.

Valerie Jarrett Blasts Al Franken over Sexual Assault Allegations
“Just imagine your mom, spouse, sister or daughter in this photo. Not so funny now, is it?” Jarrett tweeted alongside an image capturing Franken’s groping of journalist Leeann Tweeden on a two-week USO tour.

“I don’t know what was in my head when I took that picture, and it doesn’t matter,” he wrote on Facebook. “There’s no excuse. I look at it now and I feel disgusted with myself. It isn’t funny.”

Democrats and Republicans condemned Franken’s actions, and Franken himself joined calls for an investigation by the Senate Ethics Committee.

YEAH, I FEEL SO ASHAMED ABOUT WHAT I DID. NOW TRY TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. I’M A DEMOCRAT. WE’RE ALLOWED.

Two prominent Minnesota Democrats call on Al Franken to resign
Although many other Democrats have called the former comedian’s actions disturbing, state auditor Rebecca Otto and Megan Thomas, president of the party’s official Feminist Caucus, say he should leave office.

The allegations were made Thursday morning by radio host Leeann Tweeden, who said Franken harassed her during a 2006 USO trip to the Middle East, before he was elected to the Senate in 2008.

Al Franken will seek third term in 2020

GIANT SPHINCTER OF THE SENATE, MAYBE

While he lampoons President Donald Trump, congressional Republicans and the rest of the Washington establishment, he writes that being a senator is the greatest — if not most fun — job he’s ever had. And he figuratively gives lots of big, sloppy kisses to the Minnesota folks back home.

[CtH: I heard the two women in the top stories on the radio yesterday.  The sophomoric boob grab photo didn’t bother me all that much when I finally got to see it, but the abusive, obsessive, stalking behaviors he has exhibited bothered me a lot.  The man has got a serious screw loose and any Minnesotan who votes for him should have his head examined … by a proctologist.]

Mulhauser: Franken ‘Did The Right Thing’ By Apologizing

Victim Shaming? MSNBC’s Hunt: Franken’s Action ‘Not Actually Groping’

Yet, MSNBC’s Kasie Hunt described the now-Senator’s predatory behavior this way:

“[Franken] took a picture, which his office now says was of a joke, that showed him potentially — not actually groping — but mock-groping her while she was asleep.”

So it’s not really RAPE rape, is it, Whoopi?

[CtH: What was done with the photo without the woman’s consent might constitute abuse, but the fake boob grab itself was just sophomoric.]

CNN Panel Brushes Aside Franken Allegations to Knock Moore; ‘He Was Just a Comedian’
A Thursday afternoon CNN Newsroom panel showcased political tribalism as three liberal journalists downplayed the disturbing sexual misconduct allegations against Democratic Senator Al Franken (Minn.) by harping on the fact that Franken was “just a comedian” while those against Roy Moore and President Trump were far more serious.

“But just out of the gate, the fact that you have Gloria, you know, Mitch McConnell and Chuck Schumer, right, from the left and right, both saying there needs to be an ethics investigation. I realize that this was years and years ago, this story, and he was a private citizen at the time, but can he survive this,” host Brooke Baldwin wondered to chief political analyst Gloria Borger.

About That “Reckoning” on Bill Clinton

One of MSNBCs bottom feeders, Chris Hayes, mentioned the other day that maybe the democrats should have some remorse about protecting a vicious sexual predator for decades, since everybody’s being accused of inappropriate behavior and they’re in the process of executing a good man over what is probably nothing but partisan lies.

The farce of Bill Clinton’s “reckoning”

Is there anything in the news more farcical than liberals and feminists saying it’s time for “a reckoning with Bill Clinton”? Clinton was credibly accused of severe sexual misconduct by several women. One of them, Juanita Broaddrick, alleged that Clinton raped her. Her claim was highly credible, inasmuch as she complained contemporaneously to five people.

Did any Democrat or liberal media type say “I believe the women”? If so, I don’t recall it.

When political power is in the picture, Democrats and feminist “believe the women” only when they accuse political enemies. This was true in 1990s and it’s true today.

The farce of Bill Clinton’s “reckoning”

Kennedy, Clinton, and Weinstein: A Convenient Reckoning
Now it’s safe to denounce the worst acts of serial abusers on the left side of the aisle. In April, the historical drama Chappaquiddick will arrive in theaters. Variety declared the film “a tense, scrupulous, absorbingly precise and authentic piece of history — a tabloid scandal attached to a smoke-filled-room travesty.”

Ted Kennedy should, by all rights, have stood trial for involuntary manslaughter, which would likely have ended his political career.

It seems fair to ask whether Bill Clinton’s experience left many powerful and abusive men convinced that they could escape serious consequence.

Every Democrat Presidential Candidate in 25 Years Had Pedophile Ties

There is nothing that Hillary Clinton won’t do to win

Kathy Shelton had been raped and beaten into a coma when she was twelve years old. Her rapist wanted a “woman lawyer.” Hillary Clinton took his case as a favor and used every dirty trick to get him off. Even though she admits on the tape that she knew her client was guilty, she accused his victim of being “emotionally unstable” and fantasizing about older men. And she used the little girl’s bloody underwear as the pivot of a blatant lie that got her client off with less than a year in prison.

Bill Clinton took dozens of rides on Jeffrey Epstein’s Lolita Express.

The top Democrat donor’s plane earned its nickname because of its association with the abuse of young girls. Like Hillary’s client, the tastes of Bill’s bosom buddy allegedly ran to twelve year old girls. An FBI investigation found 40 victims.
And the Democrat in charge made sure that justice was served. Epstein spent a year under “house arrest” during which he was “let out on work release six days a week for up to 16 hours a day.”

When it comes to the news media, I’m always suspicious
Many mainstream news outlets have done about about-face over Bill Clinton’s history of sexual misconduct and assault.  In other words, Clinton and his wife are now useless to them.

To tell you the truth, I’m beginning to suspect that this no-holds-barred smear of Roy Moore is serving as a template for how the mainstream media will handle Republican candidates in the 2018 midterms.

Sexual allegations are in vogue thanks to Harvey Weinstein.  And if they succeed in driving Moore out of the race or getting him defeated at the ballot box, they plan on using this more widely next year.

Actually, even if they don’t succeed in defeating Moore, I think they still plan to use this tactic in 2018.

http://patriotretort.com/comes-news-media-im-always-suspicious/

THERE’S NOT A DOUBT IN MY MIND THAT THE DEMOCRATS ARE ALREADY PICKING OUT THE TARGETS THEY PLAN TO ISOLATE IN 2018 AND HAVE A BEVY OF WOMEN MAKE SEXUAL ACCUSATIONS ABOUT THEM. WIN BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY.
[CtH: A radio caller correctly pointed out that false accusations just make it harder on the real victims.  Just another example of why it is Democrats who are truly waging a war on women.]

Day of Reckoning in Virginia

There’s been a pitched battle taking place in Virginia for months. It will all come to a head today. Ed Gillespie, former head of the RNC and Vietnam veteran is facing a typical socialist hack named Ralph Northam to replace the vile, repugnant Terry Mcauliffe. McAuliffe literally stole the governor’s mansion with illegal votes and looks like he has plans to do it again in the future. Democrats just can’t let go… ever.

Democrats Getting Last Minute Willies In VA Gov Race, And Did Ralph Northam Lie About His Military Career?
In a few hours, the polls will open in Virginia. Democratic candidate Ralph Northam, the lieutenant governor of the state, is in a tight race with Republican Ed Gillespie. This shouldn’t have been a big issue for Democrats. Incumbent Democratic Gov. Terry McAuliffe is popular. It’s the only southern state that Hillary Clinton won. It’s trending bluish—and Donald Trump is not popular here. And yet, here we are—one of the most critical races of the year, though some Virginia voters probably don’t even know that tomorrow is Election Day.

There must be something in the internal polling that has him and his people spooked because this has become a campaign that seems to be going off the hinges.

PBS Analyst: If Dems Lose In Virginia, It’ll Be ‘Close to Civil War Within the Democratic Party’
With statewide elections on Tuesday in Virginia and New Jersey, the PBS NewsHour week-in-review segment strangely focused on Democrats for a change. Liberal analyst Mark Shields shocked PBS anchor Judy Woodruff by saying if Virginia’s Democratic candidate for governor, Ralph Northam, can’t defeat Republican Ed Gillespie with his alleged Trump baggage, there will be hell to pay:
But I will say this, that it’s proof, more than anything else, to me of how little Barack Obama cared about the Democratic Party or about politics. He was great at getting elected. He got a national majority twice in a row. Nobody had done that since Eisenhower. He was leaving the party $24 million in debt, therefore, vulnerable to Hillary Clinton’s coterie of big givers. Bernie Sanders didn’t have big givers, as we know.

Republican Ed Gillespie: A Reagan conservative tries to appeal and prevail in the age of Trump
Gillespie, communications ace, former lobbyist, and senior aide to President George W. Bush, will find out Tuesday if Virginia voters will send a Reagan conservative to the Virginia governor’s mansion in the era of Donald Trump.
Should Gillespie succeed, he would become the first Republican elected statewide in Virginia since Bob McDonnell led his party’s sweep of statewide offices in 2009. He would likely have a GOP-controlled legislature to pass a broad agenda of bills he could sign into law.

Virginia Gov. (and Longtime Clinton Pal) Terry McAuliffe Rips Brazile Book: ‘Nobody Cares’
Appearing on MSNBC with Katy Tur, McAuliffe — himself a former DNC chair — didn’t mince words when asked about Brazile’s claims.
“Nobody cares about what Donna Brazile has said in a book,” McAuliffe said. “Nobody.”
“Let me be clear, and you can play this back on Wednesday morning,” McAuliffe told Tur. “We are going to win the governor, lieutenant governor, attorney general [races].”
The chat concluded with a cringe-worthy exchange between Tur — who’d pressed on the softening poll numbers and the Donna Brazile claims — and McAuliffe.
“Katy, you gotta enjoy life a little bit more,” McAuliffe said.

4 Pete’s Sake — Friday, October 27, 2017

So much to do. Where to start?

There was an interesting post at Gateway Pundit this morning.

The Question Must Be Asked: Who Did Deep State Catch AG Jeff Sessions in Bed With?

But what has happened with the swamp?

The answer lies with President Trump’s Attorney General. Day after day, since he was sworn in as AG, Jeff Sessions has failed his President and the American people.
In July, after his son in law was brought in for questioning related to the fake Russia collusion story about President Trump having ties with the Russians, the President fired off at his AG.  He started by tweeting – Ukrainian efforts to sabotage Trump campaign – “quietly working to boost Clinton.” So where is the investigation A.G.

The Question Must Be Asked: Who Did Deep State Catch AG Jeff Sessions in Bed With?

SESSIONS HAS BEEN THE BITTEREST DISAPPOINTMENT.

Apparently his collegiality with his former democrat senate buddies precludes him carrying out his prosecutorial duties. Lord knows there should be subpeonas flying over the Russian Dossier and Uranium sales treason. But he won’t budge. He needs to be dismissed if he can’t find it in his heart to do his job.

Rep. Frederica Wilson (Dem-Florida) Has Been Missing From Congress For Days, Her Excuse Blames Trump Backlash

The Democrat from Miami was all over the media last week condemning the president for a condolence call he made to the wife of Sgt.

Victoria Toensing, the lawyer for the informant, told The Daily Caller’s Vince Coglianese that Obama Justice Department lawyers told her client that “his reputation and liberty [was] in jeopardy” if he did not drop a lawsuit against the government.

On Wednesday, the Trump Justice Department released the informant from a confidentiality agreement, clearing the way for him to testify before several congressional committees about his undercover work at Uranium One, a Canada-based energy company that has ties to Bill and Hillary Clinton and their family foundation.

The Chickens Are Coming Home

Would that it were true.

The complicit media still steadfastly refuses to acknowledge that the democrats and the Clinton campaign committed multiple felonies in their quest to win the presidency/destroy Donald Trump with the use of a phony dossier, paid for by the DNC and the Clinton’s which was then used to obtain legal/illegal FISA warrants to unlawfully investigate people in Trump’s orbit. Will anybody pay a price for these illegal acts of subversion and, in the case of the uranium sellout, treason? They will not. We’ve known how completely corrupt the Clintons are, have been for decades, and nothing has ever touched them. They are, for lack of a better term, above the law.

Clinton Campaign Lied About Funding the Trump Dossier

Clinton Campaign Lied About Funding the Trump Dossier

Clintons, DNC, FBI, & Media All Found Colluding With Russia Against Trump

Multiple media outlets now reporting that the Hillary Clinton campaign coordinated with Fusion GPS, a D.C. based political opo research firm, to create and then distribute the infamous “Trump dossier” that attempted to spread salacious fabrications against Donald Trump and his campaign. This false dossier was then used to wage the equally false Trump-Russia investigation that is still ongoing in Congress.

Whispers indicate many high-placed figures in the Establishment Media already knew this. Not only did they refuse to report on it, but they knowingly continued reporting on the false premise of the Trump-Russia investigation

http://dcwhispers.com/breaking-clintons-dnc-fbi-media-found-colluding-russia-trump/#FkuXXM0moibLXImd.99

Why doesn’t Hillary’s ‘dossier’ trick count as treason?

Just last summer, when it was reported that Donald Trump Jr. had met with a Kremlin-linked Russian lawyer who claimed to be in possession of damaging information about Clinton, there was widespread condemnation and shouts of treason. But Trump Jr. did not seek out, hire anyone, pay for, or accept the information.

The Clinton campaign did all of that, then leaked the fake dossier to their friends in the pro-Clinton, anti-Trump media, which ignored the tainted source and reported on it gleefully. Then the Obama administration used it to justify a FISA warrant to tap a Trump adviser.

When the hunters become the hunted

Democrat critics of Donald Trump LOVED Robert Mueller’s investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election.  They were sure it would prove Russia colluded with the Republicans to wreck Hillary’s bid for the White House.  They sniggered about how many more days Donald Trump would last before he was impeached.

It’s not quite working out that way as Hillary moves to the center of Mueller’s search for a Russian connection.

Tammy Bruce: CNN’s latest, desperate attempt to hammer Trump is mind-boggling
Reaching deep in their drawer of smug, CNN unleashed a “Facts First” initiative, starting with an ad featuring an apple, with a voice-over warning viewers that some awful, yet unnamed, person or network is trying to convince you the apple is a banana.
What CNN reveals with this abject sanctimony is their contempt for the viewers themselves

This is 30 seconds of CNN condescendingly treating news consumers as idiots, unable to judge for themselves. Think about this: Someone at CNN thought it would be a great idea to suggest people who don’t trust CNN are either brainwashed or just plain stupid.

DOJ Lifts Gag Order: FBI Informant Can Speak About Clinton’s Uranium One Deal

I WOULDN’T WANT TO BE THIS WITNESS. PEOPLE TESTIFYING AGAINST THE CLINTONS TEND TO MEET UNTIMELY ENDS. THAT’S NOT HYPERBOLE, THAT’S A FACT.

Before the Obama administration approved a controversial deal in 2010 giving Moscow control of a large swath of American uranium, the FBI had gathered substantial evidence that Russian nuclear industry officials were engaged in bribery, kickbacks, extortion and money laundering designed to grow Vladimir Putin’s atomic energy business inside the United States, according to government documents and interviews.

Democrats’ Russia Narrative Spiraling Out Of Control

Prominent Democrats are now scrambling to distance themselves from the revelations. The DNC released a carefully-worded statement meant to distance current party leader from the dossier. The “new leadership” of the DNC, the statement said, was not involved with the dossier.

Incomprehensible Corruption

Not only did Obama and Clinton conspire to sell 20% of our precious uranium to the Russians, but Hillary and the DNC funded the phony Russian Dossier they intended to bring Trump down with. As yet, the networks have strenuously ignored all of this. Whether they ever will remains to be seen. My money says they won’t. Baghdad Bob had nothing on this scum.

NYT Reporter: Clinton Campaign Lawyer ‘Vigorously’ Denied Being Behind Dossier

Clinton campaign lawyer Marc Elias “vigorously” denied his involvement in the anti-Trump dossier that has made up the substance of the Russian collusion allegations, New York Times reporter Ken Vogel said.

Elias’ denial appears to have been intentionally misleading in light of new reporting from The Washington Post that Elias hired opposition research firm Fusion GPS on behalf of the Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee. Elias reportedly hired Fusion to dig up dirt on Trump as part of a project that became the Trump dossier.

Clinton campaign, DNC paid for research that led to Russia dossier

The Hillary Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee helped fund research that resulted in a now-famous dossier containing allegations about President Trump’s connections to Russia and possible coordination between his campaign and the Kremlin, people familiar with the matter said.

Christopher Steele, former British intelligence officer pictured in London on March 7, 2017, compiled the dossier on Donald Trump’s alleged ties to Russia.

The Trump dossier was Clinton’s dirtiest political trick

Now it’s Democrats’ turn in the barrel.

The explosive report in the Washington Post goes a long way to explaining how the dossier was so widely spread among political reporters during the election. The Clinton camp must have passed it out like Halloween candy to its media handmaidens.

The Post report provides possible answers to other questions, too. Because Clinton’s team paid for the dossier, it’s likely that she gave it to the FBI, where James Comey planned to hire the former British agent who had compiled it to keep digging dirt on Trump.

Sean Hannity: “People Will Be Going to Jail” Over Uranium One Scandal

I’VE NEVER WAVERED AN IOTA. SOME LOW LEVEL FLUNKIE MAY BE SACRIFICED. BUT NO ONE WILL EVER CONVINCE ME ANY OF THESE CRIMINALS WILL EVER ANSWER FOR ANY FILTHY DEED THEY’VE PULLED. IT JUST WON’T HAPPEN. REPUBLICANS DON’T HAVE THE GUTS.

The Post reported that Clinton campaign and DNC lawyer Marc Elias and his law firm Perkins Coie paid Fusion GPS to continue researching Trump after a Republican donor who originally funded the research pulled out in April 2016.

Sean Hannity: Here’s my prediction tonight. People will be going to jail over this… Congress has a duty, a moral obligation, you can’t have a dual justice system.

[CtH: I’m still hoping that prophet I saw on Sid Roth, who said high level Democrats will be going to jail proves to have been right.  I’m so SICK of these people getting away with this stuff! ]

GOP investigates Russian granted US entry by Obama administration while under FBI investigation for bribery

The Obama administration awarded a visa allowing a top Russian nuclear executive to enter the United States after the FBI had already gathered substantial evidence he was involved in a racketeering scheme involving bribery, kickbacks, extortion and money laundering, court records show.

Emails: Obama DOJ Officials Sought to Route ‘Slush Fund’ Cash to Orgs of Their ‘Choosing’

Emails also show effort to exclude conservative causes

Former President Obama’s Department of Justice sought to route settlement money to organizations of their “choosing” while seeking to exclude conservative groups, documents obtained by the Washington Free Beacon show.

The practice in question began in August 2014 when the Justice Department entered into a $17-billion settlement with Bank of America for selling residential mortgage-backed securities leading up to the 2008 financial collapse. Similar arrangements were made with J.P Morgan Chase and Citigroup that brought the total amount to $36.65 billion.

Bannon’s Cannon Frosts Flake

Look, it took a long time for me to think that title up. For what I get paid around here you ain’t gettin’ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. Or Paul McCartney. Or (fill in any two-bit rapper you can think of here… I don’t know any and don’t care to… I don’t consider that garbage as music anyway).

Bannon Claims Another Scalp as Jeff Flake Decides Not to Seek Reelection

Under threat of an arduous primary challenge backed by Steve Bannon, Sen. Jeff Flake, R-Ariz., announced Tuesday he will not seek reelection.
He told The Arizona Republic ahead of his announcement that he has become convinced “there may not be a place for a Republican like me in the current Republican climate or the current Republican Party.”
Flake said he has not “soured on the Senate” and loves the institution, but that as a traditional, libertarian-leaning conservative Republican he is out of step with today’s Trump-dominated GOP.

Jeff Flake Mourns: ‘Traditional Conservative’ That Values Immigration, Free Trade Can’t Win

“When the next generation asks us, ‘Why didn’t you do something? Why didn’t you speak up?’ What are we going to say?” Flake said sorrowfully as he stood up in the Senate for his announcement. “Mr. President, I rise today to say, enough.”
Flake said that he no longer could serve as a conservative in a party that no longer valued free trade or immigration.

Rand Paul Is Only Lawmaker Who Refused To Stand, Applaud Jeff Flake Trashing POTUS Trump On Senate Floor

Senator Jeff Flake (R-AZ) gave a bridge burning speech on the Senate floor after news broke that he will not seek re-election in 2018. According to Daily Beast reporter Andrew Desiderio, every lawmaker who attended the speech, both Democrats and Republicans, stood and clapped for Flake — except Rand Paul.

The KY lawmaker didn’t see the virtue in trashing Trump as tax reform is on the table.

CNN Goes All Out: Flake Speech Was ‘Breathtaking,’ ‘Historic,’ ‘Extraordinary Moment’ in U.S. Politics

On Tuesday afternoon, CNN Newsroom couldn’t contain their overwhelming praise for Republican Senator Jeff Flake (Ariz.) following his anti-Trump speech on the Senate floor, swooning like Barack Obama had just given the speech by declaring it a “breathtaking,” “historic,” and “extraordinary moment in American politics.”
Host Brooke Baldwin kicked things off, gushing that “[w]e have all just now witnessed an extraordinary moment in American politics” as “a sitting Republican senator” blamed President Trump for not seeking reelection due to his “actions and behavior.”

[CtH: Gag me!  If he’d said anything remotely like this about Obama, he’d have been tarred and feathered.]

Jeff Flake won’t rule out taking on Trump in 2020 primary

Flake, who said he believes the president is setting a bad example for children, called out Trump for tweeting at foreign leaders and referring to Democrats as “losers or clowns.”
“These are kinds of things that we shouldn’t be okay with,” he said. “We keep waiting for a pivot that simply isn’t happening.”

Jeff Flake Retirement ‘Another Scalp’ for Bannon

At the Arizona rally last week, Bannon mocked Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY), telling him that his people are going home, in reference to McConnell’s comment about how losers go home and winners make policy.
“Note to self, Mitch: Big Luther Strange and Little Bobby Corker are both going home,” Bannon said to the raucous Arizona crowd last week. “The people of Alabama and the people of Tennessee have spoken. Your folks are going home, and their folks are making policy.”

How many times has CNN told us an apple was a banana?

CNN BANANA

  • CNN has repeatedly claimed that heavily regulated and difficult to obtain weapons are legal and easy to obtain.
  • One month after President Trump made an Article 5 commitment to our NATO allies, CNN said he had never done it.
  • CNN “reported” the non-fact that Republicans wanted to make rape and domestic violence pre-existing conditions in their Obamacare repeal bill. They even interviewed rape survivors so they could get their reactions to the fabrication.
  • CNN spent hours pushing a four-byline story that alleged James Comey would publicly dispute the president’s claim that the former FBI director told him on three occasions that he was not under investigation. Comey did the opposite.
  • CNN host Chris Cuomo, who has a law degree, said “Hate speech is excluded from protection” under the First Amendment. Hate speech is the REASON for the First Amendment. Nobody needs to be protected for warm cuddly speech!
  • CNN Sally Kohn and her cohosts raised their hands in the air in a nod to the “hands up, don’t shoot” slogan and CNN pushed the video out on its social media channels. Yet nothing in the Michael Brown case, not the ballistic or the DNA evidence or the witness statements, backs up the contention that Brown was shot with his hands up.
