scum-Schiff Rolls Out Unconstitutional
'Scooter Libby Law' Usurping Presidential Pardons
by rickwells.us
{ rickwells.us} ~ scum-Adam Schiff is one of the most despised Democrats in Congress, which... given the filth that inhabits that area of the DC Swamp, is quite a position of notoriety. In their interview George Stephanopoulos quotes Sarah Sanders’ comments on the Bobble-Head, prompting him to observe that she doesn’t like him very much. We’ve got news for you scum-Shifty, nobody does. Sanders described scum-Schiff, saying, “ scum-Adam Schiff barely, rarely bases any comments in reality. Talk about a grandstander, he is probably hook, line and sinker buddies with Jim Comey. They both have never found a TV camera they don’t love to be in front of.” Undeterred by her comments and not bother to deny any relationship with Comey, scum-Schiff spews the usual anti-Trump vitriol that is a large part of what makes him so detestable. He attacks President Trump for pardoning Scooter LIbby, saying, “You’d have to believe that the President picked Scooter Libby out of a hat, out of the thousands of people seeking a pardon this was a complete coincidence. I don’t find that the least bit credible.” That’s an idiotic statement completely of scum-Schiff’s own creation, of course it isn’t credible. Libby was railroaded just like scum-Schiff and the globalists are trying to do with President Trump and have done with both Joe Arpaio and Michael Flynn... https://rickwells.us/schiff-scooter-libby-law-pardons/Military source: Israel conducted strike on Syrian airbase
by jpost.com
{ jpost.com } ~ Israel maintained its official silence on Monday over its possible involvement in an April 9 air strike on a Syrian airbase... after the New York Times quoted an unnamed Israeli military source as saying Israel had carried out the raid. Syria and its main ally Russia blamed Israel for the attack, near the city of Homs, which followed reports of a poison gas attack by President Bashar Assad's forces on the rebel-held town of Douma. Israel, which has often struck Syrian army locations during its neighbor's seven-year civil war, has neither confirmed nor denied mounting the raid. But Israeli officials said the Tiyas air base was being used by troops from Iran and that Israel would not accept such a presence in Syria of its arch foe. Iran's Tasnim news agency said seven Iranian military personnel had been killed in the attack, which contributed to a sharp escalation of tensions between the West and Russia... http://www.jpost.com/Arab-Israeli-Conflict/Military-source-Israel-conducted-April-9-strike-on-Syrian-airbase-549960?utm_source=newsletter&utm_campaign=16-4-2018&utm_content=military-source-israel-conducted-april-9-strike-on-syrian-airbase-549960 .
Cops Are the Good Guys
by David Clarke
{ prageru.com } ~ Are cops perfect? Of course not... And no one should expect them to be. But every single day, under the most difficult conditions, the police protect us from the bad guys. In other words, they do their job and they do it well. Former Milwaukee County Sheriff David Clarke makes it very clear: cops are not the problem..
Could Trump’s Attorney Prove
Corruption and Collusion between FBI/DOJ and Democrats?
by ONAN COCA
{ freedomoutpost.com } ~ The Last Refuge is a web-based journalist with a penchant for deep-diving on stories that are generally ignored by the mainstream media... For example, The Last Refuge was the first journalist to strip down the shooting at Douglas High School, and expose how the shooting was actually a failure of leftwing Broward County School policies. The Last Refuge generally writes at the Conservative Treehouse, but every now and then he gets his thoughts down on Twitter first, revealing what he’s seeing in the news and tying stories together. He did just that with the recent story about the possibility that President Trump’s lawyer Michael Cohen had lied and had visited Prague in 2016. What the Last Refuge argues is that this story doesn’t prove Cohen did something wrong, but instead proves that the FBI and the DOJ were using a leftwing research firm, FusionGPS, to launder illegal intelligence and give it back to them in a sanitized form... https://freedomoutpost.com/could-trumps-attorney-prove-corruption-and-collusion-between-fbi-doj-and-democrats/ .
Comey's Family Marched in Anti-Trump
Women's March, Devastated When liar-Clinton Lost
by rickwells.us
{ rickwells.us } ~ James Comey’s wife and four daughters participated in the anti-Trump march against normal and good... what the man-hating libtards, lesbians and girly boys participating in it called a “march for women, women’s march, whatever. It was a march against Trump, the normal, religious Americans who voted for him, and in support of global communist tyranny. It’s not realistic to think that he’s the lone sane person in a house full of whack job libtards. He’s already stated that he “was operating in a world where liar-Hillary Clinton was going to beat Donald Trump.” He never indicated he wasn’t a willing and active participant in that world, in fact, it seem rather obvious that he was. The fact that she lost, and questions regarding the role he played in releasing information that contributed to her loss, may have made for some long nights sleeping on the couch for the now former FBI Director... https:///comey-family-womens-anti-trump-march/..
The Real Threat to Donald Trump
{ townhall.com } ~ In the midst of worrying about North Korea, Syria and Democrats taking control of the House of Representatives this fall, President Donald Trump is now worrying about a government assault on his own business, which targeted his own lawyer.
Michael Cohen has been the personal lawyer for Trump and for the Trump Organization -- the umbrella corporation through which Trump owns or manages nearly all entities that bear his name -- for many years. Cohen is so closely connected to the Trump Organization that one of his two law offices is located on the 26th floor of Trump Tower, just a few doors from the corner office formerly occupied by Trump himself.
On Monday, shortly before dawn, a team of FBI agents bearing a search warrant from a federal judge broke in to the offices of the Trump Organization and removed computers, files, tax returns and telephones from Cohen's office. At about the same time, three other teams of FBI agents performed raids. One was at another of Cohen's offices a few blocks away, and his vacant New York City apartment and hotel rooms he had been occupying were searched, too; and agents also seized personal and professional files and equipment from those venues.
Did the FBI lawfully break in to the headquarters of the president's family business and cart away files and equipment from his lawyer, as well as legal and financial files of the president himself? The short answer is: yes.
Here is the back story.
In October 2016, when the federal government began its investigation of alleged attempts by the Russian government to interfere with the 2016 presidential election, then-Attorney General Loretta Lynch managed the work.
After Trump became president and Jeff Sessions became attorney general and Sessions recused himself from this investigation, the No. 2 person in the Department of Justice appointed former FBI Director Robert Mueller as special counsel in charge of the Russia investigation. The investigation in Washington is 18 months old and has been run by Mueller for about 11 months.
If a criminal investigation stumbles upon evidence of crimes substantially removed by geography or subject matter from the location and principal responsibilities of the investigation, it is the prosecutors' duty either to prosecute those crimes if feasible or to pass whatever evidence has been found on to another prosecutor closer to the place of the alleged crime.
Sometimes, keeping that evidence is a temptation too great to resist. That's because one of the techniques that prosecutors in America use to gather evidence about a crime is to indict those at the fringes of the behavior they are investigating and then attempt, by coercion and bribery, to turn those indicted individuals into cooperating witnesses. Sometimes the indicted crime is truly at the fringes, both rationally and geographically. But the targets of these fringe prosecutions are rarely attorneys who are representing a person who is a subject of the investigation.
Until now.
Though Cohen does not represent Trump in the Mueller investigation, he does represent him in nearly all other legal matters, and his files contain a treasure-trove of confidential and financial materials from and about Trump. Judges are very reluctant to sign search warrants authorizing the seizure of legal files, with two exceptions.
The first is the so-called crime/fraud exception. Under this rule, if the client is using his confidential communications with his lawyer to further an ongoing crime, fraud or tort, the communications are not privileged, and evidence of them may be seized.
The other exception is the independent criminal activity of the lawyer. That appears to be the case here. It seems that Cohen -- who claims he borrowed $130,000 from a bank to pay an adult-film actress to remain silent about her relationship to Trump, which Trump denies was sexual -- did not tell the bank from which he borrowed the funds the true purpose of the loan.
If so, that may be evidence of bank fraud on Cohen's part. If he wired those funds over interstate lines, that is evidence of wire fraud. If he used the U.S. Postal Service to facilitate a material part of the deal with the actress, that would be considered mail fraud. Each of these fraud charges carries a prison term of five years.
When FBI agents arrive for a raid, they rarely take the time to examine fully all the documents they have seized -- even if the documents are protected by the attorney-client privilege and even if the client is the president of the United States. Needless to say, there are safeguards in place to prevent the prosecutors who dispatched the agents from viewing the privileged materials.
When Mueller in Washington came upon evidence of Cohen's bank fraud in Manhattan, he passed it along to the U.S. attorney's office in Manhattan. That office -- not Mueller -- examined the evidence and obtained the search warrants for Cohen's personal and professional premises, authorized the raids of those premises and received the fruits of the raids.
What will become of Cohen? Federal prosecutors in Manhattan will now decide whether to ask a grand jury to indict him on the fraud charges, and if he is indicted, Mueller will enter the picture looking to make a deal.
Trump's lawyer was Mueller's bait.
All of this has understandably infuriated Trump. His rights as a client were violated. His attorney of many years and on many matters will soon be a defendant. Can Trump restrain himself from offering to pardon those who could harm him or firing those who are tormenting him or waging war against real or imagined enemies? Will his anger, frustration and disgust at the violation of his financial and personal privacy push him and America into what even congressional Republicans fear would be a constitutional crisis?
The potential failure of self-restraint is the real threat he now faces.

If Mueller is fired then we don't have to worry about C.Mills.
WHEN THEY PUT CHERYL MILLS IN HANDCUFFS THEN SPEAK TO COHN. ATTY CLIENT PRIVILEGE DOES NOT APPLY TO SOME.....................................MUELLER IS IN SHARK WATERS AND NEEDS TO WATCH HIMSELF. IF U PROSECUTE ONE THEN THE OTHER HAS TO FOLLOW.
