Sorry guys, I have been convinced for a long time now that no matter what, nothing is ever going to publicly come out about this. There are just to many very wealthy and politically connected individuals involved.
Yes, the wealthy, powerful and politically connected really do live under a completely different legal system.
@ doriangrey:
I think something will come of it, just not in the form of legal-type justice. I’ll be shocked if anyone actually goes to jail (unless it’s some poor mark like that Pappadopulos stooge). In one respect, ‘something’ already has – the American trust in basic institutions has cratered. That, in and of itself, may effect changes we don’t anticipate right now.
But perp walks? Jail? Not holding my breath.
chores. later.

Given that American’s traditionally have never trusted the government and only marginally trusted other so called institutes, this basically translates to, well, no change in the status quo.
The wealthy, powerful and politically connected still live by completely different legal standards, just as everyone always suspected, the only difference, is that now a fraction of a percent of the population who was paying attention no longer merely suspect this of being true, they know it is.
@ eaglesoars:
I seriously doubt there will be either. It’ll be “the Clintons have no clout anymore, just let them walk. Scooter Libby didn’t get to walk. Mike Flynn didn’t get to walk. Hell, Martha effing STEWART didn’t get to walk. And all for the process crime of essentially lying to the FBI. Yeah, that’ll bring down the Republic.

Maybe for criminal and civil court cases we should end private lawyers. Prosecutors get a name drawn from a hat as does defense and you get who you get.

“We never use the word strike,” Weingarten was overheard saying on the phone in a first-class car. “We are a human shield for the kids … teachers are doing this in the stead of parents and kids.”
Weingarten said the union’s goal should be “cloaking this in Oklahoma and West Virginia” and asked the unknown person on the other end of the line, “Does that concept work?” Weingarten also mentioned working with the “lobbyists we have” on the plan.
“We should be careful about the words we use,” Weingarten cautioned.
“Let everyone call in for a personal day so they can’t open schools,” she said. “Let them call in for a sick day. They’re sick to death about the schools. They’re so anxiety ridden about the schools.”

@ right_wing2:
Actually, there is a mechanism in place. In civil cases, Judges are provided lists of companies, individuals, etc. when they are appointed to preside. They are SUPPOSED to review the list and recuse themselves if they have even a scintilla of a relationship with any of the parties on that list. Jurors as well.
I remember it took us FOREVER to get a judge in a particular case because apparently the entire Superior Court bench had some form of insurance with State Farm.
By the way, I have yet to see ANYTHING that shows that Sean Hannity engaged Michael Cohen as his attorney of record. Is there a signed Engagement Agreement? A matter name and number? An itemized billing of time spent working on matters for Hannity? All I’ve heard is that according to COHEN, Hannity was his client. Hannity unequivocally denies any attorney/client relationship existed, as far as I know.
It would not surprise me if Hannity called up Cohen in much the same way he’d call up Levin to get an answer to a legal question and somehow Cohen conflated in his mind that Hannity was his client.

Well, if you want to get technical (which I suppose is what lawyers do) it wasn’t Cohen that named Hannity as Cohen’s client #3, it was Stephen Ryan, Cohens attorney who did so, and even then, it was under duress under direct order from U.S. District Court Judge Kimba Wood.
How any judge could find it acceptable to issue such an order to revel a lawyer’s clients name when said client is not under criminal investigation is utterly incomprehensible to me.

That worked so well for Mondale………
@ Deplorable Barbarian:
Correct. It was absolutely the right decision. Of course, the only reason the libs voted the way they did was to keep the guy from being deported. They don’t give a crap about the law.
You have to remember that the law in question isn’t going to be applied by lawyers or judges. It’s going to be applied by immigration officials.
It needs to be like a flow chart. A resident alien gets out of prison, and you look at a list of offenses. Did he commit one of those? If yes, he gets deported. If no, he goes about his business.
We have a similar thing for determining how much “good time” an inmate can earn. There’s a list of “Serious Violent Offenses.” If his charge was one of those, he gets 4 days per month. If not, he gets 30.

That fact has always been the flaw in the Wrest’s Roman Law based legal system. The establishment of a legal interest group who have over the centuries so complicated the law that they have created a monopoly for themselves and monopolies then do what all monopolies do. Screw the customer / client financially.
In the middle ages there were wandering ‘para-legals’ who could read the law and who were hired to present a defence. They were poorly paid and were often monks as they were usually the only literate person available.
The current legal system dominated by the’ legal class’ who have become a threat to the very notion of a society being governed by laws rather than men. This class has corrupted the system by cornering access to justice and then using monopoly power to screw the rest of society.
In NZ at the moment we have men demonstrating in front of Family Court Justices’ houses because of the way ‘family law’ has been captured by feminist activist groups. The makes actions is entirely legal and totally within the law, however they are now being attacked by the very same legal system that they seek recourse from. Police are wasting their time standing around for hours daily watching nothing in particular.
Because the legal system, and especially the more extreme edges have developed and the seemingly powerless of people to push back against manifest injustice in the face of evidence we end up with folks who think that they have nothing to lose. Hence the ‘Lenny’ incident where a Family Court activist judge got the knock at the door and the two barrels of buckshot at close range to the face treatment. Lenny by the way had the ultimate alibi … a legal document that said that he was elsewhere at the time of the murder of the judge. Eventually however years later the cops got Lenny through some obscure forensic method and he’s now in jail for life. He’ll be out in 2031.
and in local news
this week began the end of year state mandated benchmark online testing program
for the last two years and at a cost of HUNDREDS of MILLIONS of dollars the programs have crashed thus delaying the testing to the point that the results were not known until a month after school ended
thus rendering the tests meaningless
well here we go for this year
Monday…crash
from the school board
“Statewide, several middle and high schools reported that students experienced delays or errors this morning when attempting to log in to the state’s online testing platform.
The Tennessee Department of Education and its testing vendor, Questar, identified the problem, which was caused by a software conflict within the login system, and they have fixed the issue. The login problem was not caused by a server crash or a capacity issue, according to information from the Department of Education. The state says the software problem has been fixed, and as such, we will resume our online testing tomorrow”
uh huh.
well then, how did today go?
not so good…
“First, we know this is frustrating for parents and students. Our teachers and administrators share that same frustration, and we have been talking with the Tennessee Department of Education throughout the past two days as they are working toward a resolution.
The Department of Education believes today’s issues were caused by a cyberattack against the testing vendor’s servers, which is what caused schools from across the state to have issues with accessing the testing platform today.
As a school district, we have decided to pause all online testing for middle and high schools on Wednesday so we can ensure that the state has resolved the issues before our students begin testing again. We intend to resume online testing on Thursday. Several school districts are taking a similar precautionary step.
Testing will go on as scheduled for elementary schools, which are using paper and pencil tests.”

How’s that socialism thingy working out for ya?
🙂
Thousands of Venezuelan workers quit the country’s state-run oil company Petroleum of Venezuela (PDSVA) following the installation of Major General Manuel Quevedo as its head, a report published this week revealed.
Quevedo has already alienated much of the company, whose workers’ woes mirror that of Venezuela as a whole.
During a recent visit to an oil rig in Orinoco Belt, Quevedo ignored workers who wanted to discuss the company’s ongoing collapse and the constant depression of their wages.
“He didn’t get out to ask workers about what is going on,” union leader Jesus Tabata, told the agency. “That way it’s easier to keep saying everything is fine—and at the same time keeping us on like slaves on miserable wages.”
Dictator Nicolás Maduro appointed Quevedo as the company’s head last October with the aim of militarizing all aspects of the company’s operation, although the move immediately raised questions about his lack of experience.
He also arrested dozens of senior PDSVA executives on alleged corruption charges in a bid to tighten his control on the industry.
Following his appointment, Quevedo promised to launch a “crusade” against corruption and pledged to “consolidate the deepening of socialism” through the “total, absolute transformation of PDVSA,” although that transformation now appears to be running the organization into the ground.
Around 25,000 workers left the company in January alone, with many PDSVA offices now inundated with people waiting to hand in their resignation. In one office in Zulia state, human resources staff reportedly hung a sign that read “we do not accept resignations.”
Many of those leaving the company are vital to the company’s day to day operations, including high-level professionals such as engineers, managers, and lawyers that are almost impossible to replace.

Pittsburgh police detectives asked to bring riot gear in case President Trump fires Robert Mueller
Major Crimes Commander Victor Joseph instructed his unit to bring “a full uniform and any issued protective equipment (riot gear) with them to work until further notice,” WPXI.com reported.
The memo was issued based on “information of a potential large scale protest in the Central Business District.”
There is a belief that President Trump will soon move to fire Special Prosecutor Mueller. This would result in a large protest within 24 hours of the firing. The protest would be semi-spontaneous and more than likely happen on short notice,” the missive read.

Speakn’ of ’68, just reminded of the so called “communication gap” as it was called back when. Even Sci/Fi missed predicting where the left/right, older/younger divide was going to land. Right around that time the movie “Wild In The Streets’ predicted something a tad different. ‘Max’ was my hero. Yeah, I was one of those kids. Anyhow….. what was I saying ? Oh yeah, the lack of any mention on Drudges page. That just strikes me as very odd. Come to think of it, nothing really on Mrs Bush either. Huh.

“I swore off animals when she died.”
Same here. Different circumstances, same result though. One can only take so much loss.
In an extraordinary exchange, a BBC News host told a former Navy Admiral that he shouldn’t question the motivation behind military intervention in Syria because “we’re in an information war with Russia”.
Admiral Lord West expressed doubt that the alleged chemical weapons attack which led to air strikes on Syria was actually carried out by Bashar Al-Assad’s regime, asserting it “doesn’t ring true” and asking “what benefit is there for his military?”
“We know that in the past some of the Islamic groups have used chemicals, and of course there would be huge benefit in them labeling an attack as coming from Assad,” he added.
After questioning the impartiality of evidence presented by groups like the White Helmets and the World Health Organization, West revealed that he had been put under pressure before to lie about war.
“I had huge pressure put on me politically to try and say that our bombing campaign in Bosnia was achieving all sorts of things which it wasn’t. I was put under huge pressure, so I know the things that can happen,” said West.
The BBC’s Annita McVeigh then made the stunning suggestion that West shouldn’t be truthful and shouldn’t question the narrative behind the attack on Syria because his words might help Russia.
“Given that we’re in an information war with Russia on so many fronts, do you think perhaps it’s inadvisable to be stating this so publicly given your position and profile, isn’t there a danger that you’re muddying the waters?” she asked.
In that moment, McVeigh basically let slip that the BBC is just as biased as RT or any other Kremlin controlled outlet when it comes to acting as a propaganda mouthpiece for the state.
West replied: “I think the answer is, if there’s a real concern, let’s face it, if [Assad] hasn’t done it then that is extremely bad news. If Assad hasn’t carried out the attack, I think it’s just worth making that clear. I think our government’s policy towards Assad has not been clever since 2013.”
The former head of the British Armed Forces Jonathan Shaw echoed West’s concerns when he told Sky News last week that Assad had no motivation to carry out chemical weapons attack, before being abruptly cut off.
@ Aussie Infidel:
I saw another source today that used anon. Israeli sources to say that the strikes hadn’t accomplished very much.
Rix and I – before the strike – both talked about being bewildered by Assad using chem weapons, knowing that hell would follow.
But somebody did. Iran? They had people in place who could have flown a chopper and dropped a couple barrel bombs, I suppose. To what end? I simply don’t see who benefits. dorian wrote a long analysis the other day saying the beneficiary was China. I think that’s a stretch but, frankly, I can’t think of a scenario that ISN’T a stretch.

Talking to my tame retired Director of CI, it would appear that Assads airforce dropped a couple of barrel bombs from a Mi-8 onto an al Qaeda HQ in Dorma. Soon after al Qaeda associated … the White Helmets (faux medicos) with camera crews in tow called people out of their cellars, grabbed the local kids rushed them to the local hospital and starter hosing them down and shoving Ventolin inhalers into their mouths. When to cameras stopped rolling they gave the kids dates, sweets and rice cakes and sent them home. At no time did ANYONE appear even remotely worried about ACTUAL gas. Certainly not Sarin and probably not even Chlorine
When the local news hound from CN turned up several days later she said that she thought she smelt Sarin on a kid’s backpack and that it seemed to her to also smell a little bit like chlorine too. This moron goes into a potential area that might have been subject to a nerve agent attack and starts sniffing a backpack that was possibly exposed. The CNN broad deserves to be dead as she lowers the global IQ score significantly.
In fact CNN KNEW that there was no gas and they were just going along with the staged political theatre as the effect ( the allied strikes) had been accomplished. By the looks of it Trump was ambushed into doing ‘something’ by the MSM, the DNC and the GPPe so he took the easy way out, told the Russians that they were NOT being targeted via the de-Confliction communications links between the US and Russia. The warehouse near Damascus was empty by the time it was bombed however the production facility was destroyed totally with all of its associated equipment still inside.
The Political theatre is over now. Can we move on but learn from this and start serious intel collection regarding al Qaeda’s PsyOps capability, and especially the bloody White Helmets who need some executive action applied with extreme prejudice!
The CNN moron thought she SMELT sarin on a backpack. Sarin has NO ODOUR moron and you have to be a moronic snowflake for even contemplating sniffing about for war gasses. Seriously ? This CNN moron needs to assume room temperature ASPO before she causes trouble for the folks around her. Dumb as a Bag Full of Rocks slanders rocks… and bags.

More importantly, they lacked the basic knowledge to know that IF Sarin had an odor, being lethal at 1 part per billion, enough Sarin for you to smell, would be 1000 times the amount necessary to kill you.

good morning.
Hoggwash and his baby sister are writing a book
https://ew.com/books/2018/04/18/hogg-family-parkland-book/
Their book, #NeverAgain, is described as “a statement of generational purpose, and a moving portrait of the birth of a new movement.” The book will explore their efforts taking on some of the most powerful forces in Washington and beyond, and will detail their commitment to new legislation aiming to prevent future tragedies.
“In times of struggle and tragedy, we can come together in love and compassion for each other,” David Hogg said in a statement. “We can see each other not as political symbols, but as human beings. And then, of course, there will be times when we simply must fight for what is right.”
“It’s amazing to see that so much love can come from so much loss,” Lauren Hogg added. “But from our loss, our generation will create positive change.”
Random House is gonna take a bath on this one. The book tour should be less than epic
@ eaglesoars:

2. Their appropriation of the phrase “Never Again” – which is sacred to the memory of the Holocaust – is ill advised.
3. Camera Hogg has already LOST over 100K Twitter followers, which isn’t a good sign. I also think his TV shelf life has bit the dust. He absurdly called for a “boycott” of Vanguard and BlackRock which set off a thousand replies ridiculing him.
4. He’s “called for” everyone to “walk out” tomorrow in memory of Columbine. I’ll be surprised if anyone does.
I think he’s about a month away from Cindy Sheehan status.
Also, he forgets one MORE thing. He’s now 18. His pedantic tantrums over slights and calls for boycotts, etc., can now expose him to a lawsuit for tortious interference.

That mayor in California who warned of ICE raids conceivably could have caused legal immigrants to not go to work for fear of being arrested, thereby nullifying the implied employment contract between the business and employer and causing financial harm to the employer (loss of labor).
@ eaglesoars:
Probably not, because if the business employs illegals, they’re in violation of federal law (and even state law, although California won’t admit it) and the doctrine of “unclean hands” would come into play as an affirmative defense.

However, if, say, your competitor dropped a dime on ICE and gave them faulty information that you were employing illegals yada yada that PROMPTED the raid, you might have a case against the owner of said lying sack of crap company.
And Amazon is run by idiots, Part 354:
Supposedly reports are that Amazon “erroneously” sent 10,000 copies of Comey’s book to the White House. Beazos said “Oh, our bad, you can go ahead and print out the return labels and send them back.”
Uh, NO Beazos. The law is that if you receive merchandise you did not order and which was addressed to you properly (meaning, you can’t keep something inadvertantly sent to your address but not addressed to YOU), you are allowed BY LAW to keep it as a gift.
So joke’s on you. Trump can, essentially keep those 10,000 books as a “gift” and report it as such and use them for TOILET paper if he wants to. Or….he can tell you to send someone to pick them up. He is not obligated to make White House staff pack the up, print the labels and send them back to you.
Jokes on you assholes. To the tune of about $100,000 at least. Because YOU get to pay the publisher for the books.
@ Deplorable Barbarian:
IF the imbeciles at Amazon attempted to collect payment prior to admitting their “Mistake” they might even be liable for criminal fraud prosecution. As lawyers love to say, “Discovery is a bitch”. I’d love to see the subpoenas for Amazon’s records relating to the “Order” that caused this “Accidental” shipment. If Whitehouse legal can prove that this was not an accident, but was an intentional act, even if it was a politically motivated “Prank” it constitutes criminal fraud.
Deplorable Barbarian wrote:
They would never get anywhere near the WH.

@ doriangrey:
Indeed. Amazon ships bestsellers direct from their warehouses I believe, so my guess is they have purchsed books WHOLESALE and store them awaiting orders. And I don’t know about you, but I’ve never received anything from Amazon without seeing the payment against my debit card show up first. No payment will be forthcoming and the WH is under NO obligation to send the books “back.”

I interviewed 2 weeks ago for the job with the energy company. Still no word from them. They’d said during the interview that they’d probably know early this week, so I called on Wednesday. They’re still debating, but they did remember me, and the person I spoke to thanked me for the card I’d sent in after the interview. If things are close, I might have a little edge because of that card.
My current, seasonal position ends next Friday. I’ve been doing quality evaluations during tax season ramp up, and there’s nothing in the contract about a permanent QA person.

What’s p-ssing me off is that agents raises went into effect as of 4/9. Non agents raises are effective some time in June. They don’t know yet what’s going to happen to any raise for me since I’m not an agent now and WILL be an agent when the non-agent raises happen, unless there’s an opening for a team lead on the new project that’s coming in.

Oh rats, did he?
That’s a damn shame. DeGenova is a pit bull.
So is Rudy, come to think of it. I wonder if that “just for a short while as his attorney” is the party line they’re giving. The unspoken part being “after which he’s firing Sessions and appointing me AG.” I wonder if Rudy will go after Weissman as well. How that dirtbag has kept his law license is beyond me.

Former presidential candidate Evan McMullin owes his former campaign staff members tens of thousands of dollars and most believe he has no intention of ever paying them, a former campaign worker tells The Daily Caller News Foundation.
Right before McMullin’s failed bid for president in 2016 as the conservative alternative to President Donald Trump, the campaign was inundated with debt. The disastrous fiscal situation was a combination of frivolous spending by McMullin and his campaign manager Joel Searby, according to the former staffer.Former presidential candidate Evan McMullin owes his former campaign staff members tens of thousands of dollars and most believe he has no intention of ever paying them, a former campaign worker tells The Daily Caller News Foundation.

Even senior members of the campaign found that McMullin and Searby were nearly impossible to get in contact with, often dodging their calls or requests to speak about new jobs or receiving payment for their work, he told TheDCNF.
Instead, he found McMullin fixated with his unpaid appearances on various cable news shows and social media

“conservative alternative”, they kept using that word, I don’t think they know what it means.
@ AZfederalist:
it’s a synonym for ‘unicorn’ which they also believe in

He/she is married, and denies ever being male, but there’s some decent evidence out there to the contrary. I tend to believe it because Wu is insane.
Don’t know much about this site but this is similar to a lot of the info I’ve seen.

Yep, amazingly Trump has turned out 1000% more conservative than any other option they have put forward.

One thing I’ve realized looking at gab and several other sites, the anti-semites have no connection to reality. They just make crap up and fly with it. It’s nuts.

that means Brennan. Clapper is too stupid to wipe his own ass w/o a mirror

I once got totally fed up with a couple of them at another website, and basically destroyed them by pointing out, that IF the Jews were actually capable of 1/10th of what the antisemitic assholes accused them of, then the Jews would actually deserve to rule the world because they would obviously be demigods.

I have a theory that anti-semitism (and some versions of anti-Americanism) are pathologies that are developed to fulfill a need of some kind. Reality is unnecessary and sometimes an impediment.

@ doriangrey:
It’s a form of bullying combined with the concept of the “other”. By directing their conspiracies and ire against probably the most persecuted group in history, they know that they can’t fight back in any particular capacity (not entirely true, but these people are nuts), and they know others won’t jump to the defense of the jews because they also want them done in. It’s the great racist circle jerk. They make themselves feel stronger by persecuting the already persecuted.

@ eaglesoars:
And there’s no good reason for Brennan to have met with the FSB. They aren’t the Russian counterpart of the CIA. They’re the domestic security service (more like the FBI).
The post-KGB Russian foreign intelligence service is the SVR, which is who Brennan might plausibly meet with.
