Actually it doesn’t prove the Russia investigation was a witch hunt. And the fact that dumpster don fired Comey makes me think there was something there dumpster don didn’t want people to know. Especially since the Mueller Team was specifically told not to follow the money in their investigation. TFG calls himself "wise"? Snort. Cunning, like any animal that cares about survival above all else, perhaps. |

Dan Crenshaw thinks it is necessary to draw up NEW laws to lock up those who have wronged TFG ...... Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-TX) proposed new laws to criminalize actions that special counsel John Durham decided not to prosecute.But, despite concluding that the federal investigation should but have been instigated, he declined to bring any charges in connection with it. He notes in his report's introduction, "Not every injustice or transgression amounts to a criminal offense." "[The law] does not always make a person’s bad judgment, even horribly bad judgment, standing alone, a crime,” Durham added. Crenshaw, however, disagreed and proposed unspecified statutes that would impose prison terms for investigators who examined the former president's dealings with Russia during his 2016 campaign. |

Welcome to No Carolina.. Rep Abe Jones is Black..
Rep McNeely has apologized.
A North Carolina Republican lawmaker’s cringeworthy remark sent a state House debate over school choice off the rails.

I have to be honest. I would rather state legislators work on something like this that in the long run would be more beneficial to the country than banning drag queens from performing.
Yes I know it’s being talked about on the Federal Level but it really is something that each state should strive for. IMO.

Oops .... Too bad Kari Lake.. Failed Arizona gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake put forward a "star witness" at Wednesday's trial in which she is seeking to throw Democratic Gov. Katie Hobbs, who defeated her in the 2022 midterm election, out of office on grounds of supposed election fraud. The only problem, wrote Laurie Roberts for The Arizona Republic, is that her witness actually torpedoed her case. "Her attorney, Kurt Olsen, told the judge he’d be presenting evidence that Maricopa County didn’t verify the voter signatures on 'hundreds of thousands' of early ballots, instead hiring signature reviewers who just went through the motions while the county looked on," wrote Roberts. As proof, he called signature reviewer "'They (supervisors) told us, ‘You need to be very cautious. You need to pay attention to what you’re doing and remember that whatever you reject or approve, you can be called in to testify,’' Onigkeit testified," said the report. "As a witness for the defense, Onigkeit was dynamite. The problem is, she was supposed to be the star witness for Lake." Olsen also showed a video of an election worker who appeared to be rushing through ballot verifications as proof that they weren't seriously vetting the ballots — except it turned out that that worker was actually fired from the job, indicating the supervisors were in fact demanding real verification of ballots. www.rawstory.com/kari-lake-humiliated-as-her-star-witness-instead-proves-arizona-elections-were-secure/ |

More problems with 'whistleblowers'. Specifically Jordan's due to testify tomorrow at the The Republican-controlled House Judiciary Committee is set to hear testimony from a pair of FBI "whistleblowers" who allege misconduct at the agency — but it turns out, according to a letter sent to the committee, that those two individuals recently had their security clearances revoked, reported The Washington Post on Wednesday.Moreover, according to the report, both agents specifically lost their clearance in part because of their sympathies for the perpetrators of the January 6 attack. The letter, signed by FBI acting assistant director Christopher Dunham and addressed to Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio), the chairman of the committee, was responding to a subpoena from the Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government that sought information regarding the security clearance adjudications of former FBI agent Stephen Friend and Marcus Allen, an FBI agent who is suspended without pay," reported Jacqueline Alemany. "Friend and Allen have been billed by the committee as whistleblowers and are expected to testify Thursday in a hearing about alleged abuses by the bureau and retaliation they allegedly faced for raising their concerns. Friend and Allen have 30 days to appeal the decision to repeal their security clearances." "In the letter, Dunham writes that Friend’s top-secret clearance was revoked Tuesday after a referral from the FBI’s Jacksonville, Fla., field office had prompted the bureau’s security division to open an investigation in September 2022. Friend’s security clearance was suspended on Sept. 16, 2021," said the report. "The investigation concluded that Friend presented a number of security concerns related to his personal conduct, handling of protected information and 'use of information technology,' according to the letter." Among Friend's troubling conduct is reportedly promoting conspiracy theories about the January 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol. Allen, meanwhile, had his clearance revoked because of concerns about his "allegiance to the United States" and because he “failed to provide relevant information to an FBI Special Agent (SA) regarding subjects who were allegedly involved in criminal activity at the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021.” This comes while the House Oversight Committee is having its own problems with securing whistleblower testimony in their investigation into President Joe Biden's family finances, particularly that the whistleblowers seem to have disappeared. www.rawstory.com/gop-jim-jordan-fbi/ |

Hope this works.. rumble.com/v2oegzg-new-reports-on-trumps-docs-reveal-a-felony-and-possible-espionage-charge-le.html*** New reports on Trump's docs reveal a felony and possible espionage charge: legal experts ***
CNN reported new evidence revealed in the special counsel’s investigation of Donald Trump's document scandal. Now legal experts are explaining just how bad it is for the former president
***
This isn't the first time that Trump has failed to scapegoat others for the documents that ended up at Mar-a-Lago. Top Trump adviser Kash Patel told a far-right outlet that the General Services Administration (GSA) packed up Trump's boxes, and they were the ones who somehow forced Trump to steal the documents. Not long after, the GSA released a letter saying that they required the staff to sign off on the contents in the boxes.
Posting the CNN report on Twitter, former Republican Ethics Czar for George W. Bush, Richard Painter, explained that it's an example of Trump lying to the federal government, a breach of 18 U.S.C 1001. "Yet another felony," said Painter.
National security lawyer Mark Zaid said that Trump's "awareness" of the classification process goes to Trump's state of mind, "which is what criminal cases are generally about." |

Here is what my guy does in Congress…
Here is what what’s her face does in Congress when she isn’t on the street yelling at another member of Congress for heckling George Santos.
So the question is what voters are getting a return for their vote.
Off hand I would say those of us who voted for Mike Thompson are getting a solid return for our vote. The voters who voted for what’s her face not so much.

What they do use is puberty blockers and that, as posted above only affects under 3000 kids a year. Hands on guns kill far more!! Called mass child abuse!!!! |

Jordan's 'whistleblowers' are being paid by TFG Kash Patel, Devin (the cow) Nunes! A trio of witnesses being called as "whistleblowers" by the GOP committee investigating the "weaponization" of government were paid off by a Trump ally and spread conspiracy theories, reported The New York Times on Thursday. *** "The first three witnesses to testify privately before the new Republican-led House committee investigating the 'weaponization' of the federal government have offered little firsthand knowledge of any wrongdoing or violation of the law, according to Democrats on the panel who have listened to their accounts," reported Luke Broadwater and Adam Goldman. "Instead, the trio appears to be a group of aggrieved former F.B.I. officials who have trafficked in right-wing conspiracy theories, including about the Jan. 6, 2021, attack at the Capitol, and received financial support from a top ally of former President Donald J. Trump." "The roster of witnesses, whose interviews and statements are detailed in a 316-page report compiled by Democrats that was obtained by The New York Times, suggests that Representative Jim Jordan of Ohio, the chairman of the panel, has so far relied on people who do not meet the definition of a whistle-blower and who have engaged in partisan conduct that calls into question their credibility," said the report. "And it raises questions about whether Republicans, who have said that investigating the Biden administration is a top goal, will be able to deliver on their ambitious plans to uncover misdeeds at the highest levels." *** They have promoted conspiracy theories; Hill wrote on Twitter that the January 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol was a "set up." Meanwhile, O'Boyle and Friend have admitted to receiving financial aid from Kash Patel, a former aide to Rep. Devin Nunes (R-CA) and Trump associate who has testified in the Mar-a-Lago classified documents case. www.rawstory.com/fbi-whistleblowers/#cxrecs_s |

Sparks fly at hearing . Jordan refusing to turn over copies of Whistleblowers' statement. Rep. Jim Jordan's (R-OH) hearing on the "weaponization" of government turned chaotic on Thursday after Republicans refused to turn over witness testimony. Following witness statements in a Judiciary Committee hearing, Rep. Stacey Plaskett (D-VI) and Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-FL) demanded to know why some testimony had not been shared with Democrats. "It's my understanding that the minority in this committee under the rules is entitled to the same testimony, information, documents that the majority is entitled to," Wasserman Schultz noted. "So I mean, I'm not aware that you're able to withhold information from the minority." "When it comes to [FBI] whistleblowers, you're not," Jordan shot back. "That's not right," one Democrat complained. "We gave you all the information we had." "Mr. Chairman, I can't hear five people at once!" a Republican interrupted. "Can we have regular order?" "I recognize...," Jordan said before Wasserman Shultz spoke up again. "I'm inquiring," she observed. "And I've told you that when it comes to whistleblowers, you are not entitled to it," Jordan shot back. "Mr. Chairman, these individuals have been determined not to be whistleblowers," Wasserman Shultz said. "These are not whistleblowers. They've been determined by the agency not to be whistleblowers. Are you deciding that they're whistleblowers?" "Yes, the law decides," Jordan stated before moving on. www.rawstory.com/jim-jordan-whistleblowers/ |

Seriously what is it with these people? Oh, the reviews.. my, not so good!! Opinion... Slate has published yet another review of Sen. Josh Hawley's (R-MO) book on masculinity and manliness, and it describes the senator's tome as nothing less than an "epic disaster."
The review, which was penned by Rebecca Onion, describes Hawley as America's "leading national pipsqueak," and asks why he even felt the need to write a book about manliness in the first place.
"Maybe he saw one of Jordan Peterson’s crying videos and thought, 'If he can do it, why not me?'" she speculates.
What makes the book particularly curious, notes Onion, is the fact that it never mentions former President Donald Trump by name even though his own life exhibits the kind of carefree immorality and irresponsibility that Hawley urges his readers to reject.
"In the chapter on being a 'king,' Hawley briefly acknowledges the existence of men who 'desperately want authority for all the wrong reasons,'" she notes. "Then, he basically describes Donald Trump, a person whose name does not appear in this book: 'They preen, they abuse, they dominate. They see others as means to their own ends.'"
She then notes the irony that Hawley himself over the past several years would "bow down to, and serve such a man, because it’s to your political advantage."

So here is Congress meddling in states right. CA passed prop 12 that basically said in order to sell meat in CA the animals needed to be treated humanely prior to slaughtering them From the article.. link“DES MOINES — Republican Iowa U.S. Sen. Chuck Grassley said he's working on legislation to overturn California's Proposition 12, an animal welfare law recently upheld by the U.S. Supreme Court that opponents say will throttle the pork industry. & ”The law requires that sows that give birth to pigs sold for pork in California be given at least 24 square feet of space and the ability to stand up and turn around in their cage. Farm groups argued it will require farmers to spend millions retrofit their operations to comply, even if all their products are not destined for California — pushing up pork prices nationally.” & “I'm working with my colleagues on a bill to reverse the effects of Proposition 12, and put an end to California's war on breakfast," Grassley told reporters Wednesday.” God forbid that an animal should be allowed to stand up and turn around. Here’s a thought. If the hog farmers don’t want to comply with Prop 12 then don’t sell their pork to CA. Find other markets. It’s that simple. |

So the Republicans found their missing whistleblowers and they showed up at the hearing. And when asked by a Democrat if they received money from a trump supporter/adviser Kash Patel they said yes. When Jim Jordan was asked about this he said “they have families to support so they have to get money.”
Here is the actual quote. It’s amazing how corrupt the new breed of Republicans have become.
