{foxnews.com} ~ Rep. Mark Meadows, R-N.C., is indicating he is open to becoming the next White House chief of staff following the anticipated departure of John Kelly... Meadows, the chairman of the conservative and highly influential House Freedom Caucus on Capitol Hill, told Politico in a statement that it would be “an incredible honor” if he was chosen for the post, but acknowledged Trump has a “long list of qualified candidates” to choose from. “Serving as Chief of Staff would be an incredible honor,” Meadows said. “The President has a long list of qualified candidates and I know he'll make the best selection for his administration and for the country.” Meadows’ communication’s director, Ben Williamson, confirmed the statement in a tweet. Meadows’ name has been mentioned on a number of lists speculating who will fill the post vacated by Kelly, the retired Marine general and Department of Homeland Security secretary. The North Carolina lawmaker has been an ardent defender of Trump throughout his presidency. And his nearly six years as a congressman -- including on the House Oversight Committee -- could be helpful to a president investigated by the new House Democratic majority next year...  https://www.foxnews.com/politics/meadows-it-would-an-incredible-honor-to-be-be-named-trumps-chief-of-staff

{gatestoneinstitute.org} ~ The Palestinian terrorist group Hamas could not have wished for a better birthday gift than the one with which the United Nations General Assembly presented it last week... In a few days, Hamas will hold a massive celebration in the Gaza Strip to mark its 31st anniversary. Hamas leaders are expected to pass on to their supporters the nice gift the terrorist group has just received from the UN -- a gift that enables them to continue launching rockets at Israel and planning how to kill as many Jews as possible on the way to eliminating Israel and replacing it with an Islamic state. Although a majority of UN member states voted in favor of a US-sponsored resolution condemning the activities of Hamas and other Palestinian terrorist groups, it failed to be adopted at the UN General Assembly. The resolution condemned Hamas for "repeatedly firing rockets into Israel and for inciting violence, thereby putting civilians at risk", and for its use of resources to construct military infrastructure "including tunnels to infiltrate Israel and equipment to launch rockets into civilian areas." Although 87 members voted in favor, and 58 against with 32 abstentions, the resolution failed, because prior to the vote, the General Assembly passed a different resolution requiring a two-thirds majority for endorsing the US-sponsored resolution...  https://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/13400/un-approves-terror

{washingtontimes.com} ~ The number of migrants demanding asylum at the U.S. border soared 67 percent in 2018, Homeland Security officials said Monday... swamping an already overloaded system and fueling a testy debate on Capitol Hill over how the government is responding. Both the official border crossings and Border Patrol agents who patrol between the ports of entry reported massive increases, and authorities said the numbers could have been even higher but there’s just not enough space to process and hold people, particularly at the ports. “Migrants may have to need to stay and wait in Mexico until space opens up,” said one official at Customs and Border Protection, who briefed reporters on the new numbers on condition he not be named. “This number would be higher, again, if not for the facility and resource constraints at the ports of entry.” Asylum has become the new soft underbelly of illegal immigration across the border. In fiscal year 2018, which ended Sept. 30, nearly 93,000 people — almost a third of migrants who showed up at ports of entry without permission, and 14 percent of those nabbed jumping the border between the crossings — took the first step in claiming asylum...

Sudden shift in get-Trump talk; 
now it's campaign finance, not Russia

{washingtonexaminer.com} ~ Prosecutors investigating President Trump made big news Friday, but it wasn't about Russia... Rather, in their sentencing recommendation for fixer Michael Cohen, lawyers with the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York wrote that in the final weeks of the 2016 campaign, candidate Trump directed Cohen to pay off Stormy Daniels and Karen McDougal, who wanted money to keep quiet about sexual dalliances. While such arrangements are legal, prosecutors argued that since the payoffs occurred during the campaign, they were violations of campaign finance laws. Cohen, who is cooperating because prosecutors nailed him for tax evasion and bank fraud in his private business, pleaded guilty to two felony campaign finance violations. So no one has to talk about an "alleged" campaign finance scheme; there's already a guilty plea. But what was really significant about the sentencing memo was that prosecutors specifically said Trump told Cohen to do it. "With respect to both payments, Cohen acted with the intent to influence the 2016 presidential election," prosecutors said. "He acted in coordination with and at the direction of Trump."Those words caused a sudden shift in the debate over investigating the president. What had been a two-year-long conversation about Trump and Russia instantly became a conversation about Trump and campaign finance. "Prosecutors are now implicating the president in at least two felonies," said CNN. "Federal prosecutors in New York say that President Trump directed Michael Cohen to commit two felonies," said NBC's Chuck Todd... You dems are really sick.  https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/columnists/byron-york-sudden-shift-in-get-trump-talk-now-its-campaign-finance-not-russia?utm_source=WEX_News%20Brief_12/10/2018&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=WEX_News%20Brief

 Federal Judge Opens Discovery Into 
scumbag/liar-Clinton Email Usage

{judicialwatch.org} ~ Judicial Watch announced today that, in a ruling excoriating both the U.S. Departments of State and Justice, U.S. District Court Judge Royce C. Lamberth has ordered both agencies to join Judicial Watch... in submitting a proposed schedule for discovery into whether scumbag/liar-Hillary Clinton sought to evade the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) by using a private email system and whether the State Department acted in “bad faith” by failing to disclose knowledge of the email system. The decision comes in a FOIA lawsuit related to the Benghazi terrorist attack. Specially, Lamberth ruled:… the Court ORDERS the parties to meet and confer to plan discovery into (a) whether scumbag/liar-Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email while Secretary of State was an intentional attempt to evade FOIA; (b) whether the State Department’s attempts to settle this case in late 2014 and early 2015 amounted to bad faith; and (c) whether State has adequately searched for records responsive to Judicial Watch’s requests. Terming scumbag/liar-Clinton’s use of her private email system, “one of the gravest modern offenses to government transparency,” Lamberth wrote in his MEMORANDUM OPINION:… his President Barack scumbag/liar-nObama’s State and Justice Departments fell far short. So far short that the court questions, even now, whether they are acting in good faith. Did scumbag/liar-Hillary Clinton use her private email as Secretary of State to thwart this lofty goal scumbag/liar-nObama announced standard for transparency? Was the State Department’s attempt to settle this FOIA case in 2014 an effort to avoid searching – and disclosing the existence of – scumbag/liar-Clinton’s missing emails? And has State ever adequately searched for records in this case? At best, State’s attempt to pass-off its deficient search as legally adequate during settlement negotiations was negligence born out of incompetence. At worst, career employees in the State and Justice Departments colluded to scuttle public scrutiny of scumbag/liar-Clinton, skirt FOIA, and hoodwink this Court...
