"There have been 59 bankers convicted of crimes, including two executives at NOVA Bank in Philadelphia who were convicted on Wednesday of fraud conspiracy related to TARP funds. An additional 19 bankers have been charged with crimes, with many awaiting trials.

Nonsense. The link primarily discusses TARP funds abuses. No one went to jail for knowingly creating and selling fraudulent securities. Or giving them bogus ratings. Even money laundering for terrorists and Mexican drug cartels would not be prosecuted by Holder. And there was the Treasury Secretary who presided over Goldman Sachs when they committed fraud of such magnitude that they had to pay a $5 billion settlement.

* DOJ official Bruce Ohr met with Steele beginning in the summer of 2016 and relayed to DOJ information about Steele's bias. Steele told Ohr that he, Steele, was desperate that Donald Trump not get elected president and was passionate about him not becoming president.

When I was younger I was a real boob man. I did unspeakable things to this one pic I had of Kim Novak...Yet like many of us once we got older our tastes matured.

Well I'm not ashamed to say when I read this, I lost it. Like old times with ms Novak, I printed it out in the living room computer, took the page to my room and ejaculated directly on this quote. Wonder if my old lady would consider this cheating, LOL!

78 upvotes someone has too much free time apparently.

Laughing my ass off about Dems being all like "Don't smear our National Law Enforcement." hahahahahahahaha

Total abandonment of principles, at least the hard blue base. Many of the elected Dem officials loved the Patriot Act.

I'm trying to connect the dots here. Were the DemoRats desperate to get Hillary elected because they needed another administration between all the corruption of the Obummer administration? Did they need to cover up the IRS scandle, Benghazi, Iran "negotiations", Uranium one, State dept. email scandle, and operation fast and furious?
I would assume there is justification for all this election rigging. Is this just the tip of the iceberg here!?

Most of the media attacking the Republicans now. Fox almost completely quiet. Hannity outright lying on his website in a way that can be refuted completely in a single sentence. This isn't spinning the way Republicans thought it would. So sad.

I'm not even going to dignify the subject of the Republican's memo with rebuttals from links and arguments.

Reality is anti-Trump and so therefore to be attacked.

So the GOP with their vast donor network has turned this country into silliness that benefits oligarchy backed by toady trolls who are so dysinformed that they cheer for their own destruction as if it were manna from God.

Yes, just the tip.

Underwater is the part that Trump had written for him, nice meme. Could be the greatest one ever inadvertently.

Nothing screams MAGA by the Great American Nationalist like protecting Israel. Very Important!

That’s what the forgotten labor in the rust belt was voting for, protection for Israel.

I guess that this memo ending the Mueller investigation was just more fake news.

Who said that was going to be the outcome?

Steele Goes Dark; Ditches London Court Appearance Following Criminal Referral By US Senate.

Former British MI-6 intelligence officer Christopher Steele was a no-show on Monday at a London courthouse, reports Fox News. Steele was expected for a long-requested deposition in a multi-million dollar civil case brought against Buzzfeed, which published a salacious and unverified "Trump-Russia" dossier.

Steele may have skipped out over concerns that he would be asked questions about his contacts with various media outlets in connection with at least two dossiers he had a hand in assembling and disseminating - for which he stands accused by Senators Chuck Grassley (R-IA) and Lindsey Graham (R-SC) of misleading the FBI about his contacts with journalists at various news outlets during the 2016 election.

"There is substantial evidence suggesting that Mr. Steele materially misled the FBI about a key aspect of his dossier efforts, one which bears on his credibility," reads the unredacted document that refers Steele for criminal prosecution in the US.

Michael Cohen or Carter Page should sue him for libel in London, where the laws are a lot tougher. Since he himself leaked to the press, he can't say he was just providing a product to a client.

Steele Goes Dark; Ditches London Court Appearance Following Criminal Referral By US Senate.

Now we know why:

HANNITY: The Senate releases 'Memo 2.0,' and it should scare you.

Hot on the heels of the House memo exposing deep state corruption comes an equally explosive document from the Senate that shows the story behind the phony dossier is even worse than you thought.

Senators Chuck Grassley and Lindsey Graham have released a heavily redacted, yet very revealing copy of their criminal referral against ex-British spy Christopher Steele, the author of the dubious dossier we now know was parlayed into a FISA warrant by Trump-hating operatives at the Justice Department.

Grassley and Graham tell us that, while working on a second dossier for Clinton opposition research firm Fusion GPS, Steele was being fed information directly from the Obama State Department and from Clinton allies as well as his usual, sketchy Russian sources. That’s right, teams Clinton and Obama were working with a foreign spy to undermine then-candidate Donald Trump.

" … Mr. Steele's memorandum states that his company received this report from (redacted), U.S. State Department, and that the report was the second in the series, and that the report was information that came from a foreign sub source who is in touch with a contact of (redacted), a friend of the Clintons who passed it to (redacted).”

So, in addition to Hillary Clinton and the Democratic National Committee paying $12 million for a phony, fake-news Russian propaganda dossier to influence the election, we now learn that her associates and the Obama State Department teamed up with Russian sources to funnel allegations to Steele for a second dossier.

The senators are also accusing Christopher Steele of lying either to the FBI or to the British courts.

"There is substantial evidence suggesting that Mr. Steele materially misled the FBI about a key aspect of his dossier efforts, one which bears on his credibility," they wrote.

I want to see this

Sniper says

"Explosive", "Shocking" And "Alarming" FISA Memo Set To Rock DC, "End Mueller Investigation"

Is this the pre-spin spin ?



All we know for sure is that some are desperate to end this. IF there was nothing there, they would want Mueller ( a good republican) to report that there was no wrong doing by Trump (that we don't already know (i.e. Trump university, stiffing contractors, gabbing pussy, etc. , etc., etc)).

They should want that report, rather than being so desperate to end the investigation. What are they so terrified will come out ? Are there thnigs they've learned and now they are going to prevent us from learning what it is becasue of the way it was obtained ?

The dates are the key.

You know our old friend Victoria Nuland? She said the date she first knew of the Dossier was in June or early July. FBI "Circle of assholes" claims nobody got access before July 31st

The timeline is coming apart.
