[New York Post] In a last-minute effort to save Hillary Clinton’s bid for the White House, Barack Obama’s chief adviser, Valerie Jarrett, has urged the president to fire FBI Director James Comey, according to a source close to Jarrett.
Obama and Jarrett are furious with Comey for reopening the FBI’s investigation of Clinton’s emails just 11 days before the presidential election. They blame Comey for Clinton’s alarming slide in the polls.
"Valerie argued that Comey was interfering deliberately in the election process and had to be stopped," the source said. "The president said he was worried about the consequences of taking such an action -- the tsunami of outrage that would come his way, and possibly become a major footnote, or worse, in the history of his presidency.
"There is also the real possibility that such an action could backfire on the president and result in a Saturday Night Massacre," the source said.
Nonetheless, "the president gave orders to convene meetings with his other top advisers over the matter," the source continued. "And that’s how he and Jarrett left the matter for now."

Yep the last POTUS to fire an FBI director for yanking the lid off of a scandal opened a huge can of whuppass on himself and several members of his inner circle.
I don't think ValJar quite understands how angry most Americans are with her boss and how much that would tilt the table.
Now if he did it AFTER the election, all hell will break loose.
[Red State Watcher] According to multiple sources, after the NYPD confiscated Anthony Weiner's laptop which was filled with Huma Abedin's emails they continued their search and discovered the property of Hillary Clinton in the form of emails that implicated her and Bill in the most heinous and serious crimes. Makes the 'Monkey Business' of 1988 seem rather tame.
An NYPD source just claimed that within the emails on that device, Hillary and Bill are directly implicated ins a MASSIVE child sex/trafficking ring along with their friend, and convicted pedophile, Jeffrey Epstein. (See Below)
According to the source,
"...It’s much more vile and serious than classified material on Weiner’s device. The emails DETAIL the trips made by Weiner, Bill and Hillary on their pedophile billionaire friend’s plane, the Lolita Express."
"We’re talking an international child enslavement and sex ring"
These claims were backed up by other NYPD sources as well:
Jeff Epstein is a level-3 registered sex offender and the media ignores the fact hat Bill Clinton flew 26 times on Epstein’s private Jet and allegedly visited Epstein’s sex slave island. Now that Hillary has also been directly implicated, the media cannot ignore this any longer!
The NYPD source makes specific claims about her involvement. He says, "Hillary has a well documented predilection for underage girls, and Mr. Weiner could not bear to see those details deleted."
Grocery store check-out lane tabloid stuff (at this point), unless sources are produced and evidence is forthcoming. Interesting, nonetheless.

#12 Trump has been accused of child rape
There was a case filed in California by this person but it got tossed out of the courts. Appeared again in NY (more fertile climate for dems I guess).
#18
IMO the Trump allegation is bogus and a red herring. IMO the Weiner-Clinton-Epstein thing might yield much more damaging stuff before this is all over.
#24
Just heard on news that the Trump rape accuser canceled event because of threats on her life.

#23 Anonymous announced around Oct. 12 that they would release a video of BC with an underage girl Heard there was a recording of BC also but so far I haven't seen such a vid. It's possible it exists as it is said that Epstein liked to record such things.
I'll believe if/when I see it. And a post-election Champ just might pardon everyone. It does beg the question of why the New York State AG ordered the Trump Foundation shut down for "irregularities" while letting the Clinton Foundation continue. Then again, I think we all know why...
Fox News Channel's Bret Baier reports the latest news about the Clinton Foundation investigation from two sources inside the FBI. He reveals five important new pieces of information in these two short clips:
1. The Clinton Foundation investigation is far more expansive than anybody has reported so far and has been going on for more than a year.
2. The laptops of Clinton aides Cherryl Mills and Heather Samuelson have not been destroyed, and agents are currently combing through them. The investigation has interviewed several people twice, and plans to interview some for a third time.
3. Agents have found emails believed to have originated on Hillary Clinton's secret server on Anthony Weiner's laptop. They say the emails are not duplicates and could potentially be classified in nature.
4. Sources within the FBI have told him that an indictment is "likely" in the case of pay-for-play at the Clinton Foundation, "barring some obstruction in some way" from the Justice Department.
5. FBI sources say with 99% accuracy that Hillary Clinton's server has been hacked by at least five foreign intelligence agencies, and that information had been taken from it.

Indictment of who is the question. Most likely a mid-range person that is expendable so McKacklepants can take the throne.

O can't pardon her without a conviction, because the Constitution says she is innocent until proven guilty. To pardon her without a conviction of a specific crime would make her look guilty!

Bobby, think Nixons pardon by Ford, he was never convicted of anything.

@#6: Zero didn't let anything go forward. He may have been aware of the investigations, but could not stop them (although DO"J" appeared to have done their best.).
FBI Directors are appointed by the President and confirmed by the Senate for 10-year terms. This give some protection against Political influence.
Zero couldn't remove Comey without some seriously nasty evidence. Mr. Comey impresses me as a "Boy Scout" with a squeaky clean CV and, therefore, somewhat immune to dismissal pressure.

From Judge Napolitano column" At the time he sent his Friday letter, Comey had not yet seen the contents of the Weiner laptop because the search warrant authorizing FBI agents to access its contents was not signed until Sunday. If he saw something incriminating before he wrote his letter, he saw it unlawfully; yet his duty was to bring what he saw to the Department of Justice, for which he works, not to hint about it publicly to Congress.
Comey's progress report to Congress is prohibited by the internal regulations of the DOJ and the FBI -- and by the canons of legal ethics that regulate lawyers. Comey had no obligation to send the letter at any time; moreover, sending it last week was a direct violation of DOJ and FBI rules that prohibit all public announcements about candidates for public office within 60 days of Election Day.

When the "Obama DOJ" stands for everything but Justice for all, it's pretty hard to demand fielty to their political decrees. Comey should never have said it was "closed" in July but the Weiner investigation saw new info and I think he had to note that. Note Judge Napolitano has been wrong on MANY things before, but never unsure

Three-prongs to investigation: 1. Weiner schlong problem with underage girls, 2. RICO-level corruption in the CF and CGI, and 3. mishandling (maybe treason and espionage) of classified info?
#12
"prongs" should not be used in a Weiner-related comment

I can't see any scenario where a Democrat in the Oval Office will allow anyone of any status to be charged with a crime. If Clinton is elected this story will be debunked as media hype and Mitch and Paul will dine in the White House with Hil & Bill.
The FBI has had AW's computer for nearly 6 weeks if reports are true. It's hard to believe they haven't done something by now other than CYA.

#13 The FBI has had AW's computer for nearly 6 weeks if reports are true.
In addition to the AW/HumaA computer, the FBI is reported to have Cheryl Mills and Heather Samuelson's computers too. Searching the latter computers would imply the immunity agreements have been violated by Mills and Samuelson.

Is there anyone who she has not communicated with? She has communicated with the DNC, the media, DOJ, the State Dept, and foreign and domestic donors--probably more. Moreover, she was fed questions on the debate and cheated.
"A Justice Department spokesman, though, downplayed the significance of Kadzik’s 2015 email, saying it was “about public information” and sent “in his personal capacity, not during work hours.”
“He wasn’t communicating via official channels because it wasn’t official business,” Kevin Lewis told FoxNews.com. “He wasn’t emailing as ‘Assistant Attorney General Peter Kadzik.’”
Lewis, who would not characterize the substance of the email, said officials in the department do not typically provide campaign advice.
“It is not department practice to provide any strategic guidance to any campaign,” said Lewis, who did not answer when asked if Kadzik’s behavior was acceptable to the Justice Department."
[The Hill] A woman who accused Donald Trump of raping her when she was 13 called off a press conference at which she planned to speak out after receiving threats, her attorney said.
The unidentified accuser, known as Jane Doe, was set to make a public statement for the first time about the accusations Wednesday afternoon alongside lawyer Lisa Bloom. But Bloom said the woman changed her mind in light of numerous threats.
"Jane Doe has received numerous threats today, as have all the Trump accusers that I have represented," Bloom told reporters.
"She is living in fear. She has decided that she is too afraid to show her face. She's been here all day ready to do it. But unfortunately she is in terrible fear."
The woman filed a lawsuit over the summer that alleges that Trump and Jeffrey Epstein raped and sexually abused her at a series of parties in 1994, when she was 13. Epstein is a New York financier who pleaded guilty to soliciting prostitution from a young girl in 2008.

'Threats' were probably of filing defamation lawsuits.

But Bloom said the woman changed her mind in light of numerous threats. Threats or just a Gloria Allred-like hit job that disappears after the election. The case was tossed in California and refiled in NY. Probably someone in NY owes the Clintons a favor. A "Jane Doe" case-c'mon?
[PROJECTVERITASACTION] In a new video released by Project Veritas Action, a top Democratic donor is caught on camera disparaging members of the African American community at a fundraiser for North Carolina U.S. Senate candidate Deborah Ross.
In the video, prominent Ross donor Benjamin Barber expresses his opinion about blacks who vote Republican by comparing them to Nazis.
"Have you heard of the Sonderkommandos? Jewish guards who helped murder Jews in the camps. So there were even Jews that were helping the Nazis murder Jews! So blacks who are helping the other side are seriously fucked in the head. They’re only helping the enemy who will destroy them. Maybe they think ’if I help them we’ll get along okay; somehow I’ll save my race by working with the murderers,’" said Barber at a fundraiser for Ross on the Upper West Side of New York City on September 19, 2016.
Project Veritas Action thought it was important to share Barber’s words with African American Republicans in North Carolina. They expressed outrage over the comments that were made at the Ross fundraiser.
"I think that Deborah Ross has shown her true colors. If this is not a, if that...what you just showed me is not racism and condescending and basically calling blacks stupid and ignorant and saying that we are voting against our own self-interest if we support any republican. I am appalled. I am in incensed. Deborah Ross should be called to task for something like that," said Bishop Wooden, a black voter in North Carolina.
Project Veritas Action Fund (AKA Project Veritas Action) was founded by James O’Keefe to investigate and expose corruption, dishonesty, self-dealing, waste, fraud and other misconduct.

Is Hillary going to repudiate Barber or refuse his money?

He actually stated Blacks that support Republicans are seriously F'd in the head. I don't think the Democrats see anything wrong with saying that. They think anyone associated with the Republicans are F'd in the head.
[CBSNews] Hillary Clinton’s campaign is returning thousands of dollars in donations linked to what may be one of the largest straw-donor schemes ever uncovered.
A small law firm that has given money to Sen. Elizabeth Warren, Sen. Harry Reid, President Obama and many others is accused of improperly funneling millions of dollars into Democratic Party coffers. The program was exposed by the Center for Responsive Politics and the same team of Boston Globe investigative reporters featured in the movie "Spotlight."
The Thornton Law Firm has just 10 partners, but dollar for dollar, it’s one of the nation’s biggest political donors, reports CBS News correspondent Tony Dokoupil.
But according to the firm’s own documents ‐ leaked by a whistleblower -- days or even hours after making these donations, partners received bonuses matching the amount they gave.
"Once the law firm knew that we had these records, they didn’t deny that this was the case," Funny how that works.
said Scott Allen, Boston Globe’s Spotlight editor. Nice little graphic included showing a few other recipients of the $.

Oficial name - Thornton Law Firm LLP (home page is here), and they're a couple of blocks away from South Station. Basically a bunch of ambulance chasers. I wonder if the Board of Bar Overseers received a complaint yet? Shit like this ought to be an ethical violation.
