Bullish on Russiagate

It looks like we're back on an upward trend. From sundance at CTH, Ten Day Countdown Begins – FISA Authorization Expiring…

AG Bill Barr is requesting a clean FISA renewal with no reforms or revisions. Senate Leader Mitch McConnell and Judiciary Chairman Lindsey Graham support the AG request.

Representatives requesting FISA reform prior to renewal include: Mark Meadows, Jim Jordan, Doug Collins, Jody Rice, Devin Nunes and Steve Scalise. Additionally, Senators Mike Lee, Ted Cruz and Senator Rand Paul are trying to force reform or let the current version expire. The American people want it scrapped, or, at a minimum strongly revised.

Congress is trying to hide the FISA renewal within the Coronavirus appropriations bill.

Let it die. Invent something new, and turn over all the old rocks to see what's lurking underneath. Also from sundance, Intelligence Community Warns Voters “Foreign Actors Attempting to Influence Sentiment and Voter Perceptions”… Notice they're not saying which foreign actors and who they're trying to support. Of course, it's so true it's almost trivial. American politicians influence the world; why wouldn't foreigners want to influence us? David Crayden at Da Caller has Devin Nunes: Democrats Paid Operatives In Ukraine To ‘Dig Up Dirt On The Trump Campaign’. You don't say?

“They can wish it away, they can build narratives if they like, but the truth of the matter remains that the Democrats paid operatives to go to Ukraine and dig up dirt on the Trump campaign and took an unprecedented step to have even the Ukrainian ambassador here in Washington … take shots at the Republican candidate for president.”

The Nation?!, Are We Witnessing a Coup Operation Against the Trump White House? "Our intelligence apparatus is doing far more than stoking paranoia about the Russian bogeyman—it’s threatening democracy." Yes.  Paul Goldberg at News Thud, Dems Launch Probe of DOJ and Barr, Seek Roger-Stone Related Interviews. Because it went so well for them last time. WaEx, Roger Stone 'proud' of his efforts to get Trump elected despite 'all that's happened. Well, it has gone rather well for us.

So, did you hear, Federal judge orders Hillary Clinton deposition to address private emails: 'Still more to learn'? (Fox).

Matt Vespa at Town Hall, Thank You, Judicial Watch: Hillary Clinton Must Be Deposed Over Her Private Email Server Fiasco. Sundance, Despite DOJ Objections – Judicial Watch Wins Court Order Forcing Hillary Clinton and Cheryl Mills to Sit for Depositions…

From the Ruling – “The Court has considered the numerous times in which Secretary Clinton said she could not recall or remember certain details in her prior interrogatory answers. In a deposition, it is more likely that plaintiff’s counsel could use documents and other testimony to attempt to refresh her recollection. And so, to avoid the unsatisfying and inefficient outcome of multiple rounds of fruitless interrogatories and move this almost six-year-old case closer to its conclusion, Judicial Watch will be permitted to clarify and further explore Secretary Clinton’s answers in person and immediately after she gives them. The Court agrees with Judicial Watch – it is time to hear directly from Secretary Clinton.”

Matt Magolis at PJ Media, Federal Judge Orders Hillary Clinton Deposition Over Private Emails; 'Still More to Learn'

"As extensive as the existing record is, it does not sufficiently explain Secretary Clinton’s state of mind when she decided it would be an acceptable practice to set up and use a private server to conduct State Department business," Lamberth said. According to Lamberth, Clinton's previous written responses to questions "were either incomplete, unhelpful, or cursory at best. Simply put her responses left many more questions than answers.”

Judge Lamberth specifically ordered an in-person deposition because using written questions now “will only muddle any understanding of Secretary Clinton’s state of mind and fail to capture the full picture, thus delaying the final disposition of this case even further.”

Judicial Watch has been pursuing hidden information about Hillary Clinton’s actions as Secretary of State at the time of the Benghazi attacks (among other things) for years. It’s largely a tireless and thankless battle most of the time. But like a dog that just won’t give up that bone, they’ve kept after it. And now a federal court has ordered that Clinton’s emails be released and that she be deposed in order for the case to proceed.

Within 75 days.

Oh, and also, Hillary Clinton has scheduled the judge to die by suicide within 60 days.

Lifezette, SNL host John Mulvaney says senators should stab Trump just like they did Julius Caesar

“I asked my lawyer if I could make that joke, he said, let me call another lawyer, and that lawyer said yes. I don’t want to dwell on politics, but I dislike the Founding Fathers immensely,” Mulvaney said.

Remember, they don't just hate Trump; they hate you, and Trump is in the way.
