  • Nice PR stunt by Shroyer. The page views and clicks that he get will more than offset the court costs.

    • Speaking of morons, today's the day the Qanon faithful have had circled for a long time. According to them be prepared to see thousands of Democrats and Deep State folks vanish into camps or be summarily executed.

      • Anyone who has been expecting an Obama appointee to not side with Obama, Comey, page, and Stzrok is a fool.

        Yeah. The IG report will probably me a mealy-mouthed dud.

          I got bad news for you,...if you're hoping John Durham is going to throw a bunch of people in jail, you're going to be disappointed with him too. After which you'll call for a third investigation, I imagine. Keep tryin' till it works!! Maybe Rudy's Ukrainian buddies can at least manufacture some evidence this time.

          • Amazon is suing the government over the loss of its $10B JEDI contract. Amazon alleges they had an agreement with the Pentagon until Trump got directly involved and scrapped the deal for political reasons

            It should be noted that Microsoft did NOT underbid Amazon. Supposedly the government is not saving any money by going with MS instead of Amazon.

            • They had a deal? If so, all they have to do is produce the signed contract.

              • The Pentagon was a couple of weeks away from announcing the contract, with Amazon widely expected to receive the bid, when Trump started being very vocally anti-Amazon in public. Suddenly the bid was put on pause and put under "further review". Three months later, they announced Microsoft as the winner.

                If everything was done on the up and up and not just because Trump wanted tp punish Bezos, then the government has nothing to hide here. Trump should welcome the suit and a further opportunity to embarrass Bezos.

                New Defense Secretary Mark Esper will review the cloud computing contract, for which Amazon and Microsoft are finalists. President Trump has cited critics' accusations of favoritism toward Amazon.

                • IG Report is out

                  * Finds the Russia probe legally justified
                  * Finds no evidence that the investigation was motivated by anti-Trump bias
                  * Finds that the Trump campaign wasn't spied upon
                  * Says the Carter Page FISA warrants contained inaccuracies and omissions, but not to the point they were fatally flawed
                  * Says the FBI exaggerated the reliability of Christopher Steele

                  Bill Barr felt it necessary to put out his own statement saying that in his view the investigation was NOT justified. This is the second time Barr has attempted to undercut an independent investigation because it did not return the results he desired.

                  • Here is a closer look the serious errors and performance failures the IG found in the Carter Page FISA warrants. At least 17 serious errors or omissions. Horowitz says he'll be launching a probe into FBI FISA practices

                    Comment


                    • IG: Paul Manafort fell under federal investigation for money laundering in January 2016, well before he joined the Trump campaign

                      Another IG finding: the Steele Dossier played no role in the launching of the Russia probe.

                      Incidentally, it's been revealed through all this that Christopher Steele met and became friends with Ivanka over a decade ago.

                        I don't think that anyone is going to get thrown in jail.

                        • Weird coincidence? Within 24 hours of the Pensacola shooting, the city government's computer system was hit by a massive cyberattack

                          A spokeswoman for the city said federal authorities were alerted to the cyberattack as a precaution, in light of the deadly violence at the Pensacola Naval Air Station.

                          • Reports indicate "there is no connection between the shooting on the naval base and the cyber-attack on the city of Pensacola."

                            Yeah, right.

                            Our enemies are out there and the US is extremely vulnerable. Ron Desantis, Florida's Governor, has publicly blasted the Naval Air Training Command and the Navy in general for lax security on this Saudi National who was going through pilot training at NAS Pensacola.

                            Apparently, he had just filed a complaint against a Navy instructor who had called him "porn stash." He has a mustache. It was a joke and he was offended by it. I can see why. Stupid comment by the Navy instructor. Regardless, Desantis said that the shooter had a mile long trail of anti-US twitter statements. That this student wasn't being watched and this wasn't picked up on by people who should be monitoring foreign nationals going through pilot training of any kind after 911 is just phenomenally stupid.

                            Wake-up people!
                            Mission to CFB's National Championship accomplished. JH chased Saban from Alabama and caused Day, at the point of the OSU AD's gun, to make major changes to his staff just to beat Michigan. Love it. It's Moore!!!! time

                            • A daunting task. Even tossing out the biggies, (FB, Instagram, Twitter,etc), how many internet forums are there frequented by Americans? How many posts per minute? Think of the facility in Utah used by the NSA to monitor telephone traffic. What would you need for the volume of internet posts? Do I really want the gov't to be monitoring everything? Are we willing to become China in domestic surveillance? Should we ask China for tips on domestic espionage?

                              The problem is the lack of responsibility shown on the part of our citizens. "Oh a public screed promising to blow up / shoot up someplace? Nah, not gonna get involved."

                              • "We have no information that indicates Ukraine interfered in the 2016 election"

                                Wray trying to get fired?

                                FBI Director Christopher Wray undercut a theory pushed by President Trump and some of his Republican allies that the government of Ukraine meddled in the 2016 election.
