{ rickwells.us } ~ Margaret Brennan asks her guest, Senator Tom Cotton (R-AR), about the nomination of CIA Director Mike Pompeo... to replace outgoing globalist Rex Tillerson as Secretary of State and the Democrat opposition to his confirmation. She quotes the ethically challenged New Jersey Senator Bob Menendez as saying he doesn’t know which Mike Pompeo to believe, “A Congressman who advocated for striking Iran and North Korea and criticized the diplomatic deals there, or the one who now says he wants to preserve the nuclear deal with Iran and negotiate with North Korea.” She asks, “Is this driven by politics or a change of conviction?” Cotton replies to the question as it relates to Democrat opposition and their typical obstructionism, saying, “It’s driven 100% by politics, Margaret.” He clarifies for her, since there was confusion in the response, that Mike Pompeo has not changed his position, that he’s committed to diplomatic solutions everywhere...  https://rickwells.us/cotton-dems-politics-pompeo/.

{ prageru.com } ~ How did we get here? Given the daunting odds against it, how is any kind of life possible?... Those who have religious faith have an answer: God. Those in scientific circles have a different answer: The Multiverse. In this week’s video, Brian Keating, Professor of Physics at the University of California, San Diego, explains the multiverse theory and poses a sincere question: Who’s taking the bigger leap of faith?  https://www.prageru.com/videos/whats-greater-leap-faith-god-or-multiverse.

{ washingtonexaminer.com } ~ President Trump criticized "obstructionist" members of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee Monday... over opposition to CIA Director Mike Pompeo's nomination to lead the State Department. "Hard to believe Obstructionists May vote against Mike Pompeo for Secretary of State. The Dems will not approve hundreds of good people, including the Ambassador to Germany. They are maxing out the time on approval process for all, never happened before. Need more Republicans!" Trump tweeted Monday morning. Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., and Democrats on the committee announced Sunday they will not support Pompeo for secretary of state when they vote Monday evening. White House press secretary Sarah Sanders said earlier Monday that Democrats are playing with fire by not approving Trump's top diplomat...  https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/trump-goes-after-obstructionist-lawmakers-for-opposing-mike-pompeo.

{ theconservativetreehouse.com } ~ Chairman of the House Intelligence Committee Devin Nunes appears on Sunday Morning Futures with Maria Bartiromo... to discuss the origin of the counterintelligence operation, that began in July 2016, against the Trump campaign. Last week the FBI released the original “electronic communication” (EC) documents that underpinned the origin of the FBI counterintelligence operation.  The first half of this interview contains some stunning information: the raw intelligence product within the EC did not come through official intelligence channels. Meaning, the origin of the 2016 counterintelligence operation, which was specifically started by CIA Director John Brennan sharing his ‘raw intelligence product’ with the FBI, was not an official product of the U.S. intelligence community. Brennan was NOT using official partnerships with intelligence agencies of our Five-Eyes partner nations; and he did not provide raw intelligence -as an outcome of those relationships- to the FBI....
Collusion, Conspiracy and a Coup D’Etat
by S.Noble

{ independentsentinel.com } ~ Colluders are running free and appear to be behind a massive conspiracy to take down the President... It’s not really about Trump in the end. It’s a war between right and left and the left will do anything to win the election they will not concede was lost. Newly-uncovered texts between FBI officials Peter Strzok and his lover Lisa Page “strongly suggest” coordination between high-ranking officials at the liar-nObama White House, CIA, FBI, Justice Department and former Senate Democratic leadership right from the beginning of the Trump-Russia collusion set up. In the least, the liar-nObama White House was briefed by the FBI and others about the probe of the Trump campaign. There are so many actors in the drama, it’s hard to keep it all straight. In this article, we are discussing three of them....

Is Mueller Done?

{ americanthinker.com } ~ The American people have turned against Robert Mueller, and that’s the least of his problems.

Late on the Friday afternoon of February 16, 2018, Mueller indicted 13 Russians for such heinous crimes as creating fake identities on Facebook and Twitter and organizing rallies, both for and against Donald Trump, as well as spending more than $100,000 on political ads -- all this, for the purpose of interfering with the United States Presidential Election -- keep in mind, not a single indicted person will ever see the inside of an American courtroom since there is no extradition treaty between our country and Russia.

After almost a year of investigating, that’s all he had: fake Twitter and Facebook accounts, some minor rallies and a paltry sum spent on political advertising. The left went bananas ululating at the top of their lungs:

“Smoking gun!”  “Smoking gun!”

It was the first time in years anyone on the left supported guns!  Progressives and their adjuncts, the mainstream media, made it out to be a big deal, but for those of us looking closely, it smacked of desperation.

What has he done lately?

Well, there was…

And then, there is…

Actually, he did ask Rod Rosenstein to give a referral to Southern District of New York U.S. Attorney's Office for a warrant to search the office, home, and pied-à-terre of Michael Cohen. For Mueller, this was an attempt to distance himself from what many see as an abrogation of attorney/client privilege.

Yet, it was something he needed to do, because if he can’t turn Cohen, he’s beginning to realize he has nothing -- and there is the added advantage that “taint” team or no “taint” team, every single damaging thing found in those raids will either be leaked to him or leaked to the press.

Well, not “nothing,” he does have loads of prosecutable crimes committed by key liar-nObama administration figures including the big man himself, liar-Clinton camp figures, FBI agents, active, retired, and terminated, especially, James “the bitch is back” Comey.

In fact, the more Mueller investigates Trump, the more he discovers crimes committed by the people who engineered his own appointment as well as his ideological brethren.

It was a shrewd, if underhanded, move by the special counsel, even if it was a Hail Mary. It looked as if he might finally be able to force someone to tell him what he wanted to hear.

Then, it happened. Donald Trump granted a pardon to Scooter Libby, who was the chief of staff to Vice President Dick Cheney during the George W. Bush administration.

In 2007, Libby was convicted of perjury as a result of the investigation into the leaking of CIA officer Valerie Plame’s identity. President Bush commuted Libby's 30-month sentence but didn’t grant a pardon. Libby’s alleged crimes happened a decade ago and according to the Washington Post:

“Cheney’s chief of staff Scooter Libby was dealt a severe injustice by prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald who knew early on that another official, Richard Armitage, had leaked Valerie Plame’s name. Fitzgerald asserted that Libby had lied to prosecutors rather than mistakenly recalled a phone call with now-deceased reporter Tim Russert. The case should never have gone forward or, if it had, a memory expert should have been permitted to testify, and President George W. Bush should have granted Libby a full pardon before leaving office.”

Why is that significant to Mueller and his investigation? 

As the venerable Andrew C. McCarthy has pointed out, the warrant to search Cohen’s offices and homes would probably not been approved had the only crime been a violation of campaign contribution laws the $130,000 payment to Stormy Daniels to keep quiet about the one night stand she had with the president more than a decade ago, which almost always involve only a return of the donations and a fine, with no jail time. There must have been evidence of other, more significant crimes. As of today, we don’t know what those crimes might be, but it wouldn’t be out of hand to assume they involve potentially substantial prison sentences.

Mueller is smart, because there aren’t many men Cohen’s age, with his money, who would be willing to do time to prevent Donald Trump’s impeachment.

Most would probably say anything to avoid a five, ten, or even twenty-year prison sentence -- even something untrue.

Trump’s pardon of Libby was brilliant. It sent Cohen a message that he wasn’t going to go to jail. If the president was willing to pardon someone who worked for Dick Cheney, probably the man most hated by those on the left and the media, at least until Donald Trump came along, he would pardon Cohen as well.

The Libby pardon took all the air out of Mueller’s attempt to “turn” Cohen. I would have loved to be in the room when Mueller got the news -- time to hit the Johnny Walker Black heavy or beat his dog or something.

If anything, it shows Mueller that Donald Trump is a different kind of Republican. I like Mitt Romney and I think he would have made a decent president, certainly better than Barack liar-nObama, who admittedly set the bar low. Yet, does anyone believe Romney would play dirty like Mueller plays? Or would he fold his hand and accept impeachment rather than fight?    

Then something else happened. Rudy Giuliani joined Team Trump.

Trump and Giuliani together are an entirely different animal; they won’t give up; they will fight to the death. Throw in Inspector General Horowitz’s investigation the report will drop in May and U.S. Attorney John Huber’s criminal investigation of the FBI with grand jury power, as well as the public tiring of his witch-hunt, and Mueller must realize he is not on the winning side and unless he has evidence of something criminal on Trump -- and after almost a year that doesn’t seem likely -- he can’t possibly win. In fact, he must be wondering whether many of his witnesses are about to be charged with crimes themselves.

I think Mueller realizes this and has had enough. He’s a smart guy and I think he understands it is time to cut his losses and salvage whatever is left of his reputation.
