I've shared before that a friend taught with McMaster at West Point and says he is "quite simply" the best man he knows. Reportedly McMaster could not turn down this position because he is active duty. I think he will not tolerate the machinations of Bannon et. al. and while they will try to downplay this move (in the way they already have by blaming it on a need to babysit Flynn) the first shot has been fired. An old college friend's husband served with him - they both speak extremely highly of him. I hope his influence increases. |

Hard to say. Nothing new has come out in the press although Nunes had to walk back some of his more outlandish claims. What makes it harder is that Nunes has altered his story a couple times so it’s nigh impossible to know when he’s lying and when he’s stating the truth. I mean, anyone can speculate given the timeline, I suppose, but that’s all it will be. Good grief. And this guy is the chair of an intelligence committee???!!!
To plagiarize Lucy, "We're doomed"
My gut feeling is Nunes was played, but that leaves me feeling he should not be head of the Intelligence Committee. Because anyone with half a brain could have seen they were being played. He's simply to close to the Trump administration to do his job, a damn important one at that. And they all forget the ever important adage, It's not the crime, it's the coverup. Glad Bannon is off the NSC. How I feel about that man, not even bad words in the English language to explain with. |

Not a lot of things coming out of this mess makes me feel good any more. |
