Soros Connected Law Firm
Perkins Coie Running The Crooked Democrat Show
by rickwells.us
{rickwells.us} ~ From the account of the actions and reactions of the Democrat National Party and liar-Hillary Clinton 2016 campaign leadership... it’s almost as if things are being run by their supposed legal team at Perkins Coie, as if George Soros had retained them to represent him in the day to day operations. We already know that they were the conduit for money from liar-Hillary Clinton and her puppet front organization, the Democrat National Committee to Fusion GPS. Now comes as related revelation that former DNC chairman Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-FL), did not bother to notify the DNC’s own leadership when the server breach was discovered. Supposedly Wasserman Schultz told the DNC leadership a month after it happened, when she was forced into it due to the Washington Post being in the process of publishing the story. That revelation was carried in an excerpt from her book that ran in Politico... https://rickwells.us/soros-perkins-coie-democrat/.
White House ‘Surprised’ By
Campaign Adviser’s Grand Jury Testimony
by CHUCK ROSS
{dailycaller.com} ~ The White House did not know that a former top Trump campaign official was testifying before a federal grand jury last week... as part of Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia probe. ABC News reports that Sam Clovis, the campaign’s co-chairman, did not give the White House a heads up before the testimony. Instead, Trump administration officials learned about the testimony earlier this week through press reports. On Thursday, Clovis withdrew his name from consideration for a top posting at the U.S. Department of Agriculture... http://dailycaller.com/2017/11/02/white-house-surprised-by-campaign-advisers-grand-jury-testimony/?utm_medium=email.
The Podesta Brothers Get Squeezed by Robert Mueller
{americanlibertyreport.com} ~ When former FBI Director and now-Special Counsel Robert Mueller began his investigation into possible influence by Russia on the 2016 presidential election... he was initially focused on possible wrongdoing by President Trump or Trump’s campaign staff at the time. However, as the probe has continued, the scope of Mueller’s investigation has enlarged, as typically happens with purviews of special prosecutors. Starting in 2011, via liar-nObama and liar-Hillary Clinton who was then the Secretary of State, the Podestas were in a position to have legislation created, deals approved and waivers signed that benefited Russian oligarchs and companies. One confidential source who Fox’s Carlson extensively interviewed was a longtime employee of the Podesta Group. This source claims that Manafort was at the Podesta Group offices regularly every month starting in 2011 and dined alone with Tony and John Podesta. This same source described tours Manafort gave to Russian oligarchs of Washington and meetings he set up with them with American Congressmen... http://www.americanlibertyreport.com/articles/the-podesta-brothers-get-squeezed-by-robert-mueller/

Judge mulls gag order in Manafort, Gates case
by Josh Gerstein
{politico.com} ~ The judge assigned to the criminal case involving former Trump campaign officials Paul Manafort and Rick Gates indicated Thursday... she was already wary of the intense media coverage of the case and said she was considering issuing a gag order limiting public statements by lawyers involved. "This is a criminal trial, and it's not a public relations campaign," Judge Amy Berman Jackson said as she conducted her first hearing in the case filed by special counsel Robert Mueller, who was appointed to investigate Russian meddling in the 2016 presidential election... https://www.politico.com/story/2017/11/02/judge-mulls-gag-order-manafort-gates-244471

Rand Paul: Russia 'Witch Hunt'
Is 'Distraction' for Congress
by foxnews.com
{foxnews.com} ~ Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) called a "witch hunt" Special Counsel Robert Mueller's investigation of matters not related to the Trump campaign's Russia connections... "A special prosecutor is a bad idea," Paul told "America's Newsroom on Wednesday. "They're not doing anything with Russia. They're trying to look at people's taxes from a long time ago that have nothing to do with President Trump." The investigation, which has yet to find evidence of illegal collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia is also a "distraction" for Congress, Paul said. Paul said he personally does not believe that Donald Trump had anything to do with Russia... http://insider.foxnews.com/2017/11/01/russia-witch-hunt-distraction-congress-rand-paul.
THE VINDICATION OF DONALD TRUMP
by Burt Prelutsky
For the past year, the Democrats have been busy demonizing President Trump, accusing him of committing treason by colluding with the Russians to win the election.
Speaking of which, I wish I had copyrighted “colluding.” It has been used so often and by so many people over the past 12 months that even if I only received a nickel every time some jackass in the media intentionally misused it, I would be a very wealthy man today.
What has made the accusation so bizarre is that for the prior eight years, the liar-nObama administration behaved like a lovesick teenager trying to woo a high school cheerleader. First, we had President liar-nObama assuring Vladimir Putin he’d be more flexible after defeating Mitt Romney in the 2012 election. Next, we had liar-nObama ridiculing Romney during a presidential debate for daring to suggest that Russia was a major menace to our national security.
Then we had Secretary of State liar-Hillary Clinton handing over a fifth of our uranium deposits to the Kremlin.
When it came to our foreign policy, the liar-nObama administration did everything but get down on one knee and ask for Russia’s hand in marriage.
To suddenly hear that it was an act of treason for a member of the Trump campaign to have even split a blini with the Russian ambassador struck me as bizarre at best and hyper-hypocritical at worst. How is it that we could go straight from the honeymoon suite to the divorce court without passing Go or collecting the standard $200?
Clearly, the Democrats were so desperate to explain how they could possibly lose an election that appeared to be a slam-dunk, it drove them to behave even stupider than usual.
Surely, it must have occurred to someone in Mrs. liar-Clinton’s camp that it made more sense to tie the Trump campaign to China. Why make Russia the boogeyman? Wouldn’t you think that when the candidate herself had pushed the reset button with Russia and later accepted a $135 million bribe to hand over America’s uranium, and when the head of her campaign team, John Podesta, had collected millions of dollars in lobbying fees from the Russkies, it was risky business to shine a spotlight on that very same country?
Was it arrogance on their part? Sheer hubris? Did they all sit around, sipping vodka and noshing on caviar, all the while laughing as they watched their pet poodles in the media run around in circles, yapping about collusion and chasing their own tails?
Speaking of collusion, I keep wondering if Russia paid anything for all that American uranium. I mean beyond the $135,000,000 to Mrs. liar-Clinton and $500,000 to her husband, for delivering a 20-minute speech in Moscow. Did the U.S. Treasury make even a dime on the deal? If so, why haven't we heard about it?
It seems that just about everyone except for Donald Trump and I have been colluding with the Russians, and, thanks to my last name, even I’m not entirely above suspicion.
● Unfortunately, the FBI has placed itself right dab in the middle of the scandal. To begin with, the agency apparently made a financial contribution to the creation of the notorious Russian dossier. Not since the Czar created the Protocols of Zion in order to slander the Jews, has there been a more blatant attempt to use a phony document to libel innocent people.
Whipped up by an English spy and a few Russian collaborators, it apparently accused Donald Trump of consorting with Polish prostitutes, Russian gangsters and Scottish sheep.
The next step was for James Comey, then director of the FBI, to meet with Trump and discuss the dossier. Then, when Trump belatedly fired Comey, Jeff Sessions recused himself. That, in turn, allowed Sessions’ deputy, Rod Rosenstein, to appoint Comey’s best friend, Bob Mueller, to lead the witch hunt into Trump’s alleged ties to the Russians.
Although the word is that the FBI is finally deigning to appear before a couple of congressional committees and answer a few questions, how is it they have been able to stonewall Congress for the past several months? What is the point of our elected representatives holding hearings if they lack the power to indict and prosecute those who simply ignore subpoenas or refuse to testify by taking the Fifth? Wouldn’t you have thought someone would have reminded the arrogant bureaucrats that Barack liar-nObama was no longer in the White House?
Ah, for the good old days, when the only question swirling around the FBI was whether J. Edgar Hoover was a homosexual or merely a transvestite with a weakness for corsets and feather boas.
● It seems like just yesterday that I was railing at all the Hollywood movies dealing with conspiracy fantasies in which the villains were ultimately disclosed to be high level members of the FBI, the CIA and other national security entities.
Until Trump was elected, and the curtain was lifted, how could I have ever guessed those movies were, strictly speaking, documentaries; and that in real life, those seemingly fictional characters were based on actual people named Comey, Mueller, Rosenstein, McCabe, Clapper, scum-Holder and Lynch?
Some days, I swear, you might get the idea that the Constitution isn’t worth the parchment it’s written on.
I would add that, thanks to Trump’s victory, we now have a conservative majority on the Supreme Court; the EPA has been successfully neutered; we are on the verge of a financial boon, thanks to the first major tax cut in 30 years; we have a military that is no longer being micromanaged by a couple of dopes like G.W. Bush and Barack liar-nObama; we have a Commander-in-Chief who recognizes Islam, North Korea and the mainstream media as existential threats to our national security.
All of this leads me to suspect that a poll indicating that a scant 38% of Americans approve of the job that President Trump is doing, while 57% disapprove, was concocted by the same folks who came up with the Russian dossier.
I’m also wondering why the House vote on the budget narrowly squeaked by on a vote of 216-212, thanks to 20 Republicans colluding. I'm beginning to love that word with the Democrats. Who would have ever guessed that you could get that many Republicans to sign a political suicide pact?
● Am I the only person who is wondering if the reason that MGM, the parent company of the Mandalay Hotel, is handling security guard Jesus Campos as if he had entered the Federal Witness Program is because he’s an illegal alien who should never been hired in the first place?
● In the wake of the Harvey Weinstein scandal, I think most people would agree that sexual harassment is disgusting. Even if it only consists of smutty jokes in the workplace, those who engage in it are bullies and creeps.
Still, I worry that in the present environment, where women are being pressed to join the crowd, they might start making dishonest charges, figuring that any unfounded claims will be accepted as gospel. Just as no woman who has been victimized should be silenced, it should require more than an accusation to besmirch a man’s reputation and destroy his career.
The charge, if true, is too serious to be used for either blackmail or revenge.
In situations that come down to “he said/she said,” we should all keep in mind the very real possibility that he, not she, could be telling the truth.
● In the past, I have often had occasion to remind people not to reply to an article as if it were a standard email. Doing so takes you to BurtPrelutsky@us.com. That address is only used to distribute my articles. To contact me, please write to BurtPrelutsky@aol.com.
A new problem has arisen over the past few weeks. Twice, subscribers have written to ask if I had taken ill. It seems that they had stopped receiving my articles and assumed that old age had caught up with me. In one case, it had been a week with no articles. In the other, it had been three weeks.
Apparently, their computers had decided to stop accepting mass-mailings. Fortunately, I was able to resolve their problems by sending them the articles they had missed and by placing them on the smaller supplemental list.
There are times I write an article-a-day, times I write one every other day. But if you go three days without receiving a new piece, please let me know because it means your computer has gotten temperamental and I will need to move you to the smaller list.
However, if the reason you don’t receive a piece is because I am incapacitated, rest assured you will receive a notice from Steve Maikoski, the person who creates order out of chaos by managing the electronic side of things for me.
