Twitter Buried #DNCLeak, #PodestaEmails
Tweets In Last Two Months Of Campaign
by PETER HASSON
{dailycaller.com} ~ Twitter buried significant portions of tweets related to hacked emails from the Democratic National Committee and liar-Clinton campaign chair John Podesta... in the last two months of the 2016 presidential campaign. Twitter’s systems hid 48 percent of tweets using the #DNCLeak hashtag and 25 percent of tweets using #PodestaEmails, Twitter general counsel Sean Edgett said in his written testimony to the Senate Judiciary Committee on Tuesday. “Approximately one quarter (25%) of #PodestaEmails tweets received internal tags from our automation detection systems that hid them from searches,” Edgett said... http://dailycaller.com/2017/11/01/twitter-buried-dncleak-podestaemails-tweets-in-last-two-months-of-campaign/?utm_medium=email.
Here’s How Much The liar-Clinton
Campaign And DNC Paid For The Trump Dossier
by CHUCK ROSS
{dailycaller.com} ~ The liar-Clinton campaign and Democratic National Committee paid just over $1 million for the infamous Trump dossier... the opposition research firm behind the salacious document said on Wednesday. Fusion GPS, the Washington, D.C.-based firm, made the disclosures to the House Intelligence Committee last week, according to Reuters. Fusion, founded by three former Wall Street Journal reporters, also disclosed that of the $1.02 million it received from Democrats, the firm paid the author of the dossier, Christopher Steele, $168,000 for his work on the document... http://dailycaller.com/2017/11/01/heres-how-much-the-clinton-campaign-and-dnc-paid-for-the-trump-dossier/?utm_medium=email.
Gutierrez Vows Impeachment By
Thanksgiving And A New Subversive Group
by rickwells.us
{rickwells.us} ~ The Congressional cockroach, Luis Gutierrez (D-IL), is a communist from Puerto Rico who has no legitimate place anywhere in American government... It’s only natural that he excelled in Chicago as a member of the Democrat Party. The day after a terrorist left eight people dead in New York City, Gutierrez is vowing to file “impeachment measures,” whatever that means, before Thanksgiving. Good for him. It will be something he and his fellow America-haters can be thankful for over the holiday break. Gutierrez told the Hill on Wednesday, “It is clear to us that he is unfit to be president of the United States of America.” Gutierrez, apparently frustrated that the Russia, Russia, Russia has only led to liar-Clinton-Mueller-liar-nObama and other Democrat comrades, now is seeking to file something, no matter how ridiculous, absent a high crime or misdemeanor. He’ll use the subjective pretext of “unfitness,” a reference to Trump’s strong belief in the Constitution... https://rickwells.us/gutierrez-impeachment-thanksgiving-group/.
Germany: Violence Spirals in Refugee Shelters
by Soeren Kern
{gatestoneinstitute.org} ~ Violent crime, including murder, rape and physical assault, is running rampant in German asylum shelters, according to a leaked intelligence report... German authorities, who appear powerless to stem the rising tide of violence, have justified their failure to inform the public about the scale of the problem by citing the privacy rights of the criminal offenders. The report, leaked to the newspaper Bild, was prepared for Markus Ulbig, the interior minister of Saxony, where more than 40,000 migrants are being housed in refugee shelters. According to the report, there were ten murders or attempted murders at Saxon migrant shelters in 2016, as well as 960 physical assaults, 671 cases of grievous bodily injury, seven rapes, 10 sexual assaults of children and 268 cases of drug trafficking. The report also cited hundreds of incidents of theft, coercion, arson, brawls and attacks on police officers. The violence at Saxon migrant shelters continued during the first six months of 2017: there were more than 500 physical assaults, several homicides and hundreds of reported thefts... https://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/11264/germany-refugee-shelters

WHERE'S THE OVERSIGHT OF MUELLER?
by ANDY SCHLAFLY
{wnd.com} ~ After spending millions of dollars on his 15-lawyer dream team, special counsel Robert Mueller indicted Paul Manafort primarily for failing to file paperwork that many Democrats also failed to file. Indeed, a group co-founded by liar-Hillary Clinton top adviser John Podesta failed to timely file the same paperwork that Manafort allegedly overlooked.
Yet Mueller did not indict anyone in Podesta’s group, or anyone opposed to Trump. The American people elected Donald Trump as president after he promised to prosecute liar-Hillary for her apparent corruption, and now the exact opposite is transpiring as it is liar-Hillary’s side that is bilking the American taxpayers to lock up Trump supporters.
Many innocent people are being forced to spend enormous legal fees to defend against the out-of-control Mueller, who is acting like an independent federal prosecutor even though that law was terminated in 1999. There was nearly unanimous consensus after abuses by independent federal prosecutors in the 1980s and ’90s that such spectacles should not recur, yet Mueller apparently has carte blanche to pursue President Trump and his supporters.
Mueller was installed under the pretext of being merely a “special counsel” for the purpose of looking into possible interference by Russia in the 2016 presidential election. Instead, Mueller has acted without accountability or real oversight in going far beyond the outer limits of his charter.
Nothing in Mueller’s indictment of Manafort has a shred of evidence connecting President Donald Trump or his administration to the unusual charges against Manafort, which relate to activities predating his involvement with Trump’s campaign. Where’s the beef that justifies giving Mueller a blank check on the U.S. Treasury to engage in such a partisan, one-sided witch-hunt against persons, rather than any real crimes that would be within Mueller’s authorization?
The real purpose of Mueller’s bizarre indictment of Manafort is not to end lobbying on behalf of foreign interests, which is rampant in D.C., but to intimidate former and current Trump officials into playing ball with Mueller’s war against Trump. Already, many potential targets of Mueller’s one-sided investigation are being pushed to the brink of bankruptcy by having to hire $1,000-per-hour attorneys simply to defend themselves against alleged crimes that never happened.
Mueller’s top prosecutor, Andrew Weissmann, has a track record of over-the-top prosecutions ultimately reversed on appeal. As pointed out in a stinging exposé at The Hill, Weissmann had a lead role in the destruction of the accounting firm of Arthur Andersen and the loss of its 85,000 jobs, by seeking a conviction that the U.S. Supreme Court unanimously reversed, after it was too late to save the company.
Supposedly, Mueller’s conduct is made constitutional by a modicum of supervision and accountability that he should be receiving from the Department of Justice. But judging by Mueller’s off-the-rails indictment of Manafort, Mueller is not being reined in by Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein or anyone else.
It is time to do so. President Trump, for whom the Department of Justice works, should begin by demanding an accounting of how much money Mueller’s team is wasting, and Trump should tweet that information directly to the American people.
With Attorney General Jeff Sessions having recused himself from this issue, Deputy Attorney General Rosenstein is supposedly in charge of Mueller. But Trump can fire Rosenstein, and he should do so if there is not immediate transparency on Mueller’s expenses and significant changes that rein in the runaway prosecutions.
Mueller’s team is obviously picking the targets and then searching for crimes, even obscure ones, to charge that target with. “Therein is the most dangerous power of the prosecutor: that he will pick people that he thinks he should get, rather than pick cases that need to be prosecuted,” as renowned U.S. Attorney General and future Supreme Court Justice Robert H. Jackson observed in 1940.
The indictment against Manafort even seems to be written more for the newspapers than for a court of law. “Conspiracy against the United States” shouts the first charge, a rarely used, politically misleading phrase.
The indictment also tosses in a laundry list of demands for forfeiture of assets, a widely criticized technique of prosecutors ordinarily reserved for drug kingpins and notorious criminals. But its message is for other Trump supporters: Tell us what we want to hear, or you’ll lose your home too.
“With the law books filled with a great assortment of crimes,” the future Justice Jackson said to a gathering of U.S. attorneys in 1940, “a prosecutor stands a fair chance of finding at least a technical violation of some act on the part of almost anyone.” That is tyranny-by-prosecution, and Trump should instruct the Justice Department to stop it.
