Has Washington Gone Crazy?

It's quite amusing watching the "I played a doctor on tv" types trying to convince us President Trump's mentally ill. Green laughGreen laughGreen laugh

People woke up and voted. Status quo is over.

Good quick read if you have time.

Has Washington Gone Crazy?

".....That is why I titled this post “Has Washington Gone Crazy?” rather than “Have the Democrats Gone Crazy?” The atmosphere in Washington has become so bizarre that members of both parties (to be fair, mostly Democrats) have gone off the deep end. They need to get out more. President Trump is doing an excellent job so far, and at this point, he is a good bet to be re-elected. Democrats can keep up the crazy, but Republicans should relax and enjoy the show."

Let all refugees into Oscars unvetted or you are all bigots! Actor challenges fellow celebs in open

Best idea yet. Maybe they can take a few home with them too.

 

Let all refugees into Oscars unvetted or you are all bigots! Actor challenges fellow celebs in open letter

Actor Robert Davi has a message for Hollywood hypocrites: Don’t just talk the talk. Walk the walk!

Davi slammed virtue-signaling celebrities like Meryl Streep, Chelsea Handler and Robert DeNiro for opposing President Trump‘s executive orders limiting illegal immigration and calling for extreme vetting of refugees from hotbeds of Islamic terrorism.

Hollywood elites have trashed Trump as a racist for prioritizing national security while remaining safely cloistered behind their lavish gated mansions. ...."

Jay Sekulow: Obama Should Be "Held Accountable" For The "Soft Coup" Against Trump

When you dig deep enough, read enough, watch videos reporting on news & findings you realize there is more going on in the background than the legacy media would like us to believe.

 

"Jay Sekulow: Obama Should Be "Held Accountable" For The "Soft Coup" Against Trump

"......According to civil right expert and prominent First Amendement Supreme Court lawyer, Jay Sekulow, what the agencies did by leaking the Trump Administration information was not only illegal but "almost becomes a soft coup", one which was spurred by the last minute rule-change by Obama, who intentionally made it far easier for leaks to propagate, and next to impossible to catch those responsible for the leaks.

This is his explanation:

    There was a sea-change here at the NSA with an order that came from president Obama 17 days before he left office where he allowed the NSA who used to control the data, it now goes to 16 other agencies and that just festered this whole leaking situation, and that happened on the way out, as the president was leaving the office.     

    Why did the Obama administration wait until it had 17 days left in their administration to put this order in place if they thought it was so important. They had 8 years, they didn't do it, number one. Number two, it changed the exiting rule which was an executive order dating back to Ronald Reagan, that has been in place until 17 days before the Obama administration was going to end, that said the NSA gets the raw data, and they determine dissemination.     

    Instead, this change that the president put in place, signed off by the way by James Clapper on December 15, 2016, signed off by Loretta Lynch the Attorney General January 3, 2017, they decide that now 16 agencies can get the raw data and what that does is almost creates a shadow government. You have all these people who are not agreeing with President Trump's position, so it just festers more leaks.

    If they had a justification for this, wonderful, why didn't they do it 8 years ago, 4 years ago, 3 years ago. Yet they wait until 17 days left.

One potential answer: they knew they had a "smoking gun", and were working to make it easier to enable the information to be "leaked" despite the clearly criminal consequences of such dissemination. ....."

Was the Ousting of General Flynn an Elaborate Ruse to Expose Leakers?

Something to ponder.  What if the author right? Green laugh

 

"Was the Ousting of General Flynn an Elaborate Ruse to Expose Leakers?

"It sounds outlandish from a plebeian point of view. But the question should be proffered: was the whole Flynn fiasco a ruse, getting the left and the media going crazy, chasing their tails over a non existent Russian conspiracy, an operation to expose disloyal leakers inside the administration and/or intelligence agencies?

A few things to consider.

Contrary to what the mental midgets on twitter tell you, both Bannon and Trump are brilliant strategists. If you need proof of this, accept the fact that Hillary spent $1.6b to lose to Trump's twitter account. Ok?

General Flynn has been in intelligence almost his entire professional career. Of course he knew they were monitoring his communications with Russia. That's a non starter. Taking into consideration that Dr. Steve Pieczenik is blantantly saying it was the plan the whole time to have Flynn gone very early during the Trump administration, coupled with the fact that Rep. Chaffetz is calling for an investigation into the leaks, I think the Machiavellian angle here is worth considering. ....."

"He Will Die In Jail" - Intelligence Community Ready To "Go Nuclear" On Trump

"......As it turns out, at least according to former NSA intelligence analyst John Schindler, the folks within the intelligence community aren't taking too kindly to being called out by the President for their "criminal acts" or to being referred to as "very un-American." By way of reminder, this is the same John Schindler who ended his relationship with the Naval War College after he was caught in a sexting scandal...

    it was not Schindler’s unhinged comments that brought him to official disgrace. It was, ironically, his inappropriate use of communications technology....."
