As Rep. Nunes began uncovering the roots of so-called FISAgate two years ago this month, his foes on the Left and Right started drumming up bogus ethics charges against him.

The campaign was an effort to thwart his work and the GOP went along with it: amgreatness.com/2019/03/11/ano…
Over at NRO @DavidAFrench demanded that Nunes step down as chairman.

But he has no such demand of Schiff, who’s engaged in far more serious violations. In fact, French hadn’t tweeted one criticism of Schiff, after writing several hit pieces on Nunes:

That’s because the NeverTrumpers want to keep alive whatever remaining crumbs of the Trump-Russia collusion hoax they can, and keep in power one of Trump’s most shameless foes. Very principled.

Not only did @gabeschoenfeld viciously accuse VDH of being in service to “evil” - meaning President Trump -he got basic facts wrong about the dossier and FISAgate. He refuses to answer his critics because that’s what bullying cowards do: amgreatness.com/2019/03/13/whe…
Schoenfeld has written other gems recently, such as insisting Don Jr is a traitor for meeting with Russian lobbyists working with Glenn Simpson and how Trump was “losing his mind in 2017” and would be removed from office.

Perfect for The Bulwark.

Even more appallingly, five days after this vile article was posted, VDH’s colleague at NR, the self-righteous David French, was a guest on the editor’s podcast. French, who never misses a chance to call out the bad behavior of others, said nothing to Sykes about the hit piece.

“The ex-congressman got off by a mixture of prosecutorial sloppiness, ambiguously worded corruption statutes, and an unwillingness by the U.S. attorney in Chicago to defend the actions of Schock’s initial prosecutors on appeal.” thedailybeast.com/how-sloppy-pro…
Schock’s attorneys hounded prosecutors and investigators for alleged misconduct throughout the case’s four-year history, from asking misleading questions during grand jury testimony to what they called “distasteful and offensive” inquiries into the ex-congressman’s sex life.”
This country is long past due serious prosecutorial reform.

This is why we won’t stop calling out (to use their phrase) NeverTrumpers. If you have a voice in this crucial moment and you weaponize it against the very people you claim to care about because Trump uses bad words, you will be mocked and deservedly so.
Imagine you are lucky enough to have a byline at an influential outlet on the Right and instead of pounding the traitors on the Left or giving aid to those in the trenches fighting these psychos, you instead offer up your 3,074 iteration of Orange Man and His Cultists Bad.
It is and always has been a binary choice. As the Irish say, you’re either with us or against us. If you don’t get that or you don’t have the guts to fight this every single day, that’s fine. But stop pretending you’re the voice of reason or our moral authority. You’re weak.

"During his grudge-airing, redemption-seeking spectacle on Wednesday, Michael Cohen admitted he was in cahoots with Democratic lawmakers prior to giving his congressional testimony.

"I’ll briefly discuss one element of postmodernism that’s absent from the modern academic and cultural politics that are criticized as postmodern. The absent element I will discuss is play."
"The classic statement of play in continental philosophy, often conceived of as the sort of think tank of postmodernism, was Jacques Derrida’s break from structuralism into poststructuralism, “Structure, Sign, and Play in the Discourse of the Human Sciences.”...

Twenty-two years ago this month I traveled to Iraq for two weeks on the 4th delegation of Voices in the Wilderness: A campaign to end the sanctions against the people of Iraq. I witnessed first hand some of the results of the 1991 Persian Gulf War, an unnecessary war. 1/

This article raises interesting issues, but also leaves important questions hanging.
The article looks at the unprecedented criticism from clubs of the disciplinary system in Scottish football at the moment. Ultimately, it lays blame on the clubs themselves ("Disciplinary system ultimately down to clubs") and on the international board ("IFAB the real culprit")
Both points are fair:
- the clubs do, in the end, have a great deal of power over the league and national football authorities; and
- the IFAB definitions are far from making disciplinary decisions straightforward or clear cut.

Is Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein a Russian Agent?

Thread (long)

#AmericaFirstMedia #Justice4SethRich #SaveLukeAnon
Okay it’s a seemingly ludicrous question. But if the unequivocal assessment of the intelligence community that Russians interfered in the 2016 election is correct, and new evidence I’m about to discuss is true, it’s a perfectly logical conclusion to reach, so please bear with me.
Firstly, please note this thread contains serious allegations against officials within the DOJ and federal law enforcement. They are allegations I am reporting on, not making on my own behalf. All information contained within the thread is available in the public domain.
