Dick Morris – The Next Thing
TRUMP MUST Do Is FIRE ROD ROSENSTEIN
{ rickwells.us } ~ Dick Morris says the next thing that must happen following the revelations in the Nunes memo... is that “Trump has got to fire Rod Rosenstein. That is the absolute key to his survival and to the survival of the marvelous changes he’s bringing to this country.” “Rosenstein deserves firing,” Morris affirms, “Three times after the initial warrant was given, the FBI sought extension of the warrants approving their surveillance of Carter Page and probably of other Trump people. And they concealed from the FISA court that the dossier that they were using as the basis of that request was paid for by the liar-Hillary campaign, was nothing more than a campaign leaflet.” He points out that it was sold to the FISA court as the product of detailed espionage work, verified by the FBI.” Nothing could be further from the truth. He also describes their backup protection of producing news articles though Yahoo News as additional fabricated evidence... https://rickwells.us/morris-trump-fire-rosenstein/.
The FISA Memo: “Worse Than Watergate”
by Selwyn Duke
{ thenewamerican.com } ~ The abuse of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) by senior liar-nObama administration officials is “worse than Watergate.”... So said House Judiciary Committee member Rep. Steve King (R-Iowa) in January. King based his comments on his reading of the FISA memo, whose much anticipated release to the public occurred Friday. And since Watergate led to history’s only resignation of an American president, we should ask: is King’s pronouncement risible or right? Let’s contrast and compare. For a brief history, courtesy of History.com, the “Watergate scandal began early in the morning of June 17, 1972, when several burglars were arrested in the office of the Democratic National Committee, located in the Watergate complex of buildings in Washington, D.C. This was no ordinary robbery: The prowlers were connected to President Richard Nixon’s reelection campaign, and they had been caught wiretapping phones and stealing documents.” As for current events, the FISA memo relates the surveillance of former Donald Trump campaign advisor Carter Page. As Bloomberg reports, the “memo says that the FBI presented an opposition research dossier as evidence to a secret court for warrants to spy on Page beginning in October 2016. The bureau did not tell the court that this dossier was paid for by the Democratic Party and the liar-Hillary Clinton campaign through cutouts. Senior officials at the bureau and the Justice Department knew all of this, but declined to tell the judge who approved the warrant, according to the memo.”... https://www.thenewamerican.com/usnews/politics/item/28191-the-fisa-memo-worse-than-watergate .
Chuck Grassley Gives FBI Director Wray
Until Tomorrow To Declassify His Memo
{ theconservativetreehouse.com } ~ The Federal Bureau of Investigation signed off on an unclassified version of the criminal referral by... Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley and Crime and Terrorism Subcommittee Chairman RINO-Lindsey Graham only after the White House declassified a House Intelligence Committee (HPSCI) Majority memo largely based on the same underlying documents. Grassley is now calling on the FBI to update the classification of the referral to allow complete disclosure of important context from the documents on which it is based. “Seeking transparency and cooperation should not be this challenging. The government should not be blotting out information that it admits isn’t secret, and it should not take dramatic steps by Congress and the White House to get answers that the American people are demanding. There are still many questions that can only be answered by complete transparency. That means declassifying as much of the underlying documents as possible,” Grassley said... https://theconservativetreehouse.com/2018/02/05/chuck-grassley-gives-fbi-director-wray-until-tomorrow-to-declassify-his-memo-redacted-memo-included/.
President Trump Calls Out Anti-American
Democrats as “Treasonous” In Speech
{ rickwells.us } ~ President Trump was once again politically incorrect on Monday when he drew attention to the Democrat misbehavior at his State of the Union Address... perhaps pushing the boundaries of the definition of treason a bit in doing so. Virtually everything they do is treasonous so if he were to over classify in this one instance there are plenty of others, like their conspiracy with the corrupt liar-nObama/liar-Clinton/scum-Soros Mafia and the Crooked liar-nObama DOJ and FBI in the use of fabricated evidence in an attempt to overthrow his Presidency. That more than fits the definition of treason. President Trump was speaking in Ohio, promoting the new tax law and midterm GOP candidates when he took the sullen globalists to the woodshed. They are unhappy over their failure to prevent his successes and return America to Americans and it showed... https://rickwells.us/trump-labels-democrats-treasonous/.

Democratic Leaders, Why
Do You Find Patriotism Divisive?
by David Limbaugh
{ townhall.com } ~ Did you ever think you'd see the day when a prominent political party would accuse the president of being divisive and exclusionary for saying "America" too many times during his State of the Union speech?
The American Civil Liberties Union made that very complaint. No, the ACLU is not the Democratic Party, but their positions on such matters are virtually indistinguishable. Besides, many prominent Democrats and media liberals made similar objections after the speech.
MSNBC host Joy Reid brazenly trashed traditional American values and institutions with her tweet accusing President Trump of trying to force the normalization of himself by using "terms of the bygone era his supporters are nostalgic for" -- namely, church, family, police, military and the national anthem.
House Minority Leader Nancy Pulosi called Trump's unapologetically pro-America speech, which was widely approved by the American people in flash polls immediately afterward, "dangerous."
Rep. Jim Clyburn, D-S.C., who recently compared Trump's presidency to a time "right after the 1932 elections when Adolf Hitler was elected chancellor," took umbrage at Trump's statement that Americans, like the immigrants whose parents brought them here illegally as children, "are dreamers, too."
Fox News analyst Juan Williams was deeply disappointed by the speech, saying that this was an opportunity for Trump to reach across the aisle and bring us together but he didn't take it. More bizarrely, Williams said in response to Trump's statement that "Americans are dreamers, too," "David Duke and the KKK would love that." Seriously?
Obviously, today's Democratic Party at least its leadership has a problem with raw expressions of patriotism, because Democrats can't seem to look at America through anything but their distorted prism of Balkanized identity politics.
They assume that when Republicans promote church, family, police, the military, the national anthem and wholesomeness and goodness, they are somehow dog whistling to white supremacists, or some such nonsense. Democrats said Trump delivered a "wedge speech," one that "inflames the cultural divide."
Perhaps their habit of divining code language in our every pronouncement is simple projection. For all of Trump's faults, he pretty much says what he believes. His SOTU speech was no exception. Probably the most consistent message he delivered on the campaign trail was his belief in an America-first philosophy -- not certain groups in America at the exclusion of others but all Americans.
What these kvetching liberals can't grasp is that we conservatives don't view our heartfelt expressions of patriotism as exclusionary or divisive. Indeed, by definition they are not.
Liberals say we promote white privilege. We don't. They say our policies disfavor minorities, but they don't; they are race-neutral and aimed at lifting up all people. They say immigration enforcement advocates are driven by nativism and bigotry. We aren't; we are animated by a love for America and the American idea, which is enshrined in our founding documents. We don't believe that America is the greatest nation in history by accident, and certainly not because of ethnic demographics.
Rep. Joseph Kennedy, in the official Democratic response to the SOTU, audaciously quoted a U.S. motto, "e pluribus unum," meaning "out of many, one" -- though every other thing out of his mouth and that of his Democratic colleagues undermines that precept. Conservatives, though, actually believe in a melting pot and equality of opportunity and equal justice for all.
Sadly, Kennedy and his Democratic leaders view America only through race-conscious eyes. They are the ones who deliberately divide us, by constantly agitating over race, gender, sex, religion and any other category that will incite their base into a frenzy.
America was mired in a perpetual malaise under Barack liar-nObama, and the Democrats' goal, when liar-nObama's scapegoating of George W. Bush had finally extended even beyond the Democrats' willing suspension of disbelief, was to delude Americans into accepting economic stagnation as inevitable and the new normal.
Already, in one short year, with Trump's tax cuts, his deregulation, his business-friendly policies, his recommitment to America's domestic energy industries, and his overall contagious optimism and bullishness on America, this nation is roaring back, and Democrats are conspicuously vexed about it.
They have no viable alternative agenda; everything they tried under liar-nObama failed. Yet they're still promoting the same destructive ideas. That is why they have reduced themselves to ad hominem Trump slanders, bogus charges of collusion with Russia and blanket smears of conservatives as bigoted extremists.
Democrats are the ones who have become more extreme every year. Yesteryear's liberal extremism is far too conservative for today's Democratic Party. With Democrats' constant westward shifting of the goal posts, they regard mainstream conservatism as radical. Proof of their extremism and intellectual bankruptcy is their maniacal rhetoric, such as accusing Trump of being a dangerous dictator.
Their emotional breakdown over innocuous and uplifting presidential expressions of patriotism and traditional American values -- with their perception that such inherently unifying ideas are divisive and exclusionary -- screams volumes.
Such utterances of national pride cannot credibly be depicted as divisive. Likewise, Democrats' quest to force-fit identity-tinted lenses on all Americans so that we can see one another only as members of certain groups cannot be spun as uniting or constructive.
It would be refreshing if Democrats could at least be truthful about where they stand, but as of now, they are saying one thing and at the same time, well, saying another. Please keep it up through November, guys.
