THIS IS IT!!!

[Professor Tiger]

The name Mohammed and its many spelling variations are on course to become one of the most popular names in Germany going from 97th to 26th most popular in less than a decade.

According to the Gesellschaft für Deutsche Sprache (Society for German Language, GfdS) the name Mohammed has seen a rapid rise in popularity, though the name could be even more popular than their figures suggest, Die Welt reports.

GfdS data, like many similar statistics, do not take into consideration all of the different spellings of Mohammed such as Mohamad, Mohamed, Mehmet, and others.

In Austria, the daily newspaper Kronen Zeitung compiled data using all the variants of the name and found that Mohammed soared in popularity from 5th overall to 3rd among baby boys born in Vienna.

The Turkish commander Suleiman almost conquered Vienna in 1529, but was defeated by rugged Christian opposition. Now, the descendants of Suleiman are successfully conquering Vienna like Suleiman failed because the deconstructed spineless sissies are opening the gates to the city and letting the invaders in. I hope they enjoy life under Shariah.

SAD!

Breaking: Nunes Memo Released

https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2018/1 ... t-Released

“McCabe told Priebus a big NYT story alleging treasonous collusion was false. Priebus asked if he could make that public. McCabe then leaked that Priebus was interfering with the FBI, tweeted Davis Monday



so you have the top brass of the FBI telling priebus the collusion scandal was all bullshit which he asked if they'd make that public and they set him up to CNN making it sound like obstruction.

Mueller might not be bad but McCabe and company sound like a bunch of corrupt shitheads who bullied there way to a fisa warrant to bug trump --ok'd by a sitting president

5 pm today the memo vote will be 13-9 to release and trump will let it be released--perfect timing by McCabe to quit

[Professor Tiger]

The FBI says it "accidentally" lost 50K emails between two of its own agents, and the lost emails started right after the Mueller probe started.

A few days ago a DOJ official said it would be "reckless" for the Nunez memo to be released without the FBI and DOJ scrutinizing it first. So the crooks want the right to approve any evidence presented against them. That was just plain hilarious.

And if the vote today is 13-9, that means there are 9 congressmen who don't want us to know what happened.

And, oh by the way, Mccabe decides to step down today.

All this is evidence that the Nunez memo is going to be YUGE.

Over the past decade, out-of-state drug companies shipped 20.8 million prescription painkillers to two pharmacies four blocks apart in a Southern West Virginia town with 2,900 people, according to a congressional committee investigating the opioid crisis.

The House Energy and Commerce Committee cited the massive shipments of hydrocodone and oxycodone — two powerful painkillers — to the town of Williamson, in Mingo County, amid the panel’s inquiry into the role of drug distributors in the opioid epidemic.

“These numbers are outrageous, and we will get to the bottom of how this destruction was able to be unleashed across West Virginia,” said committee Chairman Greg Walden, R-Ore., and ranking member Frank Pallone Jr., D-N.J., in a joint statement.

The panel recently sent letters to regional drug wholesalers Miami-Luken and H.D. Smith, asking why the companies increased painkiller shipments and didn’t flag suspicious drug orders from pharmacies while overdose deaths were surging across West Virginia.

The letters outline high-volume shipments to pharmacies over consecutive days and huge spikes in pain pill numbers from year to year.

Between 2006 and 2016, drug wholesalers shipped 10.2 million hydrocodone pills and 10.6 million oxycodone pills to Tug Valley Pharmacy and Hurley Drug in Williamson, according to Drug Enforcement Administration data obtained by the House Committee.

Springboro, Ohio-based Miami-Luken sold 6.4 million hydrocodone and oxycodone pills to Tug Valley Pharmacy from 2008 to 2015, the company disclosed to the panel. That’s more than half of all painkillers shipped to the pharmacy those years. In a single year (2008 to 2009), Miami-Luken’s shipments increased three-fold to the Mingo County town.

Miami-Luken also was a major supplier to the now-closed Save-Rite Pharmacy in the Mingo County town of Kermit, population 400.

The drug wholesaler shipped 5.7 million hydrocodone and oxycodone pills to Save-Rite and a branch pharmacy called Sav-Rite #2 between 2005 and 2011, according records Miami-Luken gave the committee. In 2008, the company provided 5,624 prescription pain pills for every man, woman and child in Kermit.

Springboro is about 15 miles from here

60 Minutes did a story on that. This outrageous situation is even more outrageous because FDA agents/whistleblowers tried to stop the madness but were stymied at every turn by senior FDA officials and politicians.

This McCabe thing is pretty interesting to me

OK, so I get that our president is an incredibly egotistical and petty person, but if anyone truly believes the FBI is the bastion of integrity and doesn't have rogue actors in the bureau, you're incredibly naive.

Here is a narrative that I believe is exactly what has happened.

From day 1, because Trump is egotistical and naive, he has overstated his wealth, his power, his connections . essentially this guy is a glorified real estate developer and failed casino owner who developed a taste for Hollywood level branding - and all the baggage that goes with it. Trump Steaks, Trump University, Trump Suits, Trump Airlines - put together a team of people, get some investors, try it out and see if it works. I worked for some millionaires from Stanford who did that - they were smart but they weren't genius, mostly they just wanted to one up every one of their peers in the material possession game. Of course this is a global brand so he has connections all over the world, with his brand and overstated wealth opening doors to world leaders.

Somewhere along the way, Trump wants the Trump brand on the presidency of the United States and he goes about assembling a team of people (going back as far as 2007) on getting a pulse on America. Doesn't matter to him whether its democrat or republican, he just wants to tap into the anger, angst and motivations of the American public and develop his platform around that.

He launches a big for the presidency among little fanfare and much ridicule of the media. But what they don't know is that he knows what the American public (at least in the states that aren't connected to an ocean) wants to hear. So he goes all in on the immigration stance at a time when the GOP has told its constituents that regardless of what they believe, they'll never win another election unless they court the Latino vote. To Trump it wasn't a gamble, it was just a calculated move that caught the GOP off guard. Initially they balked at his statements until they saw him start gaining ground.

During all of this, Trump is a novice to how politics really works - he thinks he is savvy enough to come in and not listen to anyone and his hubris gets his ass in a trap. The Russians offer dirt on Hillary via the proxy Wikipedia and Trump jumps on it, they cater to members of his inner circle (aside from Bannon - the only guy, oddly enough, who is smart enough to realize what lines can't be crossed in Washington) and once they are told about the possible risks, they decide to lie about it.

Unfortunately on the other side, we get to see how a professionally corrupt politician runs a campaign by owning the party and marginalizing a candidate that many - and it may not be so crazy to say that the majority of Americans wanted as the Democratic nominee in Sanders

The reason I provide that background is because no one in the world thought Trump would win and the FBI, CIA, NSA, GOP, - every acronym organization you can think of had determined that and was preparing for Hillary victory. Couple that with Obama putting people in key positions loyal to the Democrats and you have an environment that is ideal for the type of dysfunction and insubordination we see coming from the DOJ and other groups responsible for law enforcement and prosecution.

I don't think there is any doubt that Comey and Lynch colluded to protect Hillary Clinton from prosecution, and I don't think there is any doubt that certain members of the FBI and DOJ are highly motivated to bring Trump down because they don't believe he is capable of being a competent president

I happen to believe that McCabe, Mueller and Rosenstein all fit into that category, I also believe that Mueller stacked his investigation team with people loyal to Hillary

And to make matters worse they have a receptive media who feels the same way about Trump and is all to willing to forsake their own principles and integrity to take this man down and as a side benefit, they might sell some advertising along the way

So back to the McCabe thing - The FBI "loses" thousands of text messages, they refuse to provide documents for months (and still are) that are requested into the investigation and they insist there is no bias while having to dismiss people associated with the Trump investigation for working against Trump and leaking it to a reporter. Its stunning to me that there are people out there saying this is not a smoking gun - this is all just circumstantial evidence that casts the FBI in a bad light and the FBI is inherently good /proper in this investigation of Trump.

And the Democrats are saying the release of a memo compiled by a republican senator is a smokescreen to distract from the Russian Investigation that has been going on for the better part of a year. Furthermore, the Democrats are now going to create their own memo to dispute the Republican memo, while the DOJ says that releasing a document describing the insubordination and potentially illegal behavior by the FBI with links to Hillary and Obama would be "reckless".

The way I see it, if the republican memo is a false narrative driven by partisan politics then it would be easy enough to discredit upon its release which would further damage the GOP and embolden the FBI and the Mueller investigation, however if its true, it pretty much cripples the FBI - which should happen if an agency is going rogue against our commander in chief.

At the end of the day, Trump probably did know the Russians had dirt on Hillary, but in the bigger picture, how effective was he with it, in regards to Wikipedia releasing it and the Russians buying adds on facebook? And if the Russians have something on Trump, what specific actions has he taken that would be so obviously in favor of Russia that is harms America? The damage to the FBI and DOJ, to me , is pretty serious. I believe they opted to disregard evidence that should have resulted in prosecution for Hillary, and then went into witch hunt mode on Trump - for nothing much more than they basically hated the man.

If this all comes to light, the DOJ and the FBI needs to be cleaned out. Probably true of other groups as well, like HSA and NSA.

[Professor Tiger]

^Right said.

The top leadership of DOJ and FBI are largely corrupt, politicized, partisan hacks. They are supposedly running the nation's premier law enforcement agency, yet they are the nation's premier criminals. This is all about to be proven with real, tangible, substantiated, evidence. EVIDENCE - the secret ingredient that the whole investigation into Trump-Russia collusion has spectacularly lacked for over a year now.

Its stunning to me that there are people out there saying this is not a smoking gun - this is all just circumstantial evidence that casts the FBI in a bad light and the FBI is inherently good /proper in this investigation of Trump.

Amen.

The Mueller investigation is dead. Gone. Stick a fork in it.

Fruit of the Poisonous Tree

A doctrine that extends the exclusionary rule to make evidence inadmissible in court if it was derived from evidence that was illegally obtained. As the metaphor suggests, if the evidential "tree" is tainted, so is its "fruit." The doctrine was established in 1920 by the decision in Silverthorne Lumber Co. v. United States, and the phrase "fruit of the poisonous tree" was coined by Justice Frankfurter in his 1939 opinion in Nardone v. United States.

The DOJ and the FBI are being proven to be the most poisonous and rotten of all trees.

Really? Trot out another Kennedy? Boy, you libs are retarded.

[Professor Tiger]

The Kennedys retain their exalted place in Democrat hagiography. You can easily tell that boy is a philandering drunk/addict bad driver like the others; he was drooling during his speech on national television. That alone had “Kennedy” written all over it.

[eCat]

yea, great idea to trot out a Kennedy to scold America on privilege...with a wrecked car behind him.

That wasn't a rebuttal, it was a Wes Anderson movie.

the funny thing is - Trump has put the Dreamers in a position where they should support him instead of the Democratic party

While both parties are using them as leverage, Trump is giving them what they want, while the Democrats need a rallying cry in the midterm elections

Take away immigration and throw in a robust economy and the democrats will get their ass kicked. They aren't about to give the Dreamers a path to citizenship if it means a Trump win

People getting raises and bonuses from the tax plan and the democrats referring to that as "crumbs".

they don't really seem like the party of the people right now do they?

The republicans set the bar pretty low and the Democrats still fail to rise to it, much less above it.
