I won’t say it started here.
That’s far too simplistic and much had already been done.
But this July 20, 2015 Memorandum on behalf of Sally Yates set the stage for much of what was to come.Continue Reading
I used to identify as a Libertarian. I no longer do – although I retain many Libertarian ideals.
Libertarianism fails for me on several counts. Particularly on borders and defense.
Someone once said, “Conservatives tend to be libertarian, but libertarians tend not to be conservative”.
I think there’s a lot of truth in that statement.
So, what do I believe?Continue Reading
Quite the presidential mess. And deservedly so for some. Hillary Clinton Inc, FBI Director Comey, President Obama, The Department of Justice, The State Department. They all deserve what they are reaping with this literally unprecedented re-opening of the Clinton Email Investigation.
But the United States of America and its voters? They deserve none of this.
You and I deserve none of this.
Director Comey was either already biased in favor of Clinton from the very start of this investigation or he was pressured into becoming biased by…well, there really are only a couple of places the finger can point.Continue Reading

Crucial questions that should be asked when former special counsel testifies before House committees on July 17
Robert Mueller, who investigated allegations of Russia collusion and obstruction of justice for nearly two years as special counsel, will be testifying before the House Judiciary and Intelligence committees on July 17.
Mueller’s investigation, which concluded there was no evidence that the Trump campaign colluded with Russia and that there was insufficient evidence to support obstruction charges, has been criticized for attempting to inflict political damage on President Donald Trump.
Specifically, Volume II of the Mueller report contained sections that were selectively edited, apparently in order to provide damaging portrayals. Examples include the representation of the transcript of a phone call between the president’s attorney, John Dowd, and the attorney for former national security adviser Michael Flynn; a letter from the attorney of an individual referenced in the Mueller report; and a sequence of dates concerning the meeting between Trump campaign adviser George Papadopoulos and Australian diplomat Alexander Downer.
