[Washington Examiner] This week is shaping up to be a critical one for retired Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn.
"Breaking News: sources tell me [Flynn] will be completely exonerated this week. It was a total fraud. A Set up. More tomorrow," tweeted Fox Business host Maria Bartiromo on Sunday.
In another tweet teasing Monday's edition of her weekday morning show, Mornings with Maria, Bartiromo included the hashtag, "#GeneralFlynn," along with a list of her guests, including multiple lawmakers.
Earlier in the day on her weekend Fox News show, Sunday Morning Futures, Bartiromo noted during a conversation with Rep. Devin Nunes that it would be an "important" week for Flynn.
The California congressman, who is the top Republican on the House Intelligence Committee, said he suspects a filing submitted to the court in Flynn's case on Friday contained exculpatory evidence and noted U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Missouri Jeffrey Jensen, who was selected by Attorney General William Barr in January 2020, is reviewing the Flynn case.
CBS News senior investigative correspondent Catherine Herridge also reported on Sunday that Friday's filing will be "important" for the day ahead.
"Drawing attention Friday filing Flynn case @CBSNews told important for days ahead. AG Barr directed Missouri US Attorney to review FBI personnel 'communications and notes,' in part, to determine whether key evidence withheld. Docs under seal but may change," she tweeted.
[LA Times] SACRAMENTO — Gov. Gavin Newsom’s decision to spend almost $1 billion in taxpayer funds to buy protective masks drew national attention as an aggressive move by California to solve one of the most nagging problems of the coronavirus crisis.
But almost two weeks after he announced the deal during a cable TV interview, very few details have been disclosed. The governor’s advisors have so far declined requests for information about the agreement with BYD, the Chinese electric car manufacturer hired to produce the masks, though the state has already wired the company the first installment of $495 million.
Newsom, who has been praised for his efforts to slow the spread of the disease, bristled on Saturday at suggestions that his administration has been too slow to explain a deal that will cost California taxpayers 30% more than his January budget would spend on infectious disease prevention for an entire fiscal year.

You know damn well that people associated with BYD will contribute generously to the governor's next election campaign. He probably go a suitcase full of cash under the table right after he signed the contract.

[NationalFile] Former Democrat legislator and gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams in 2014 revealed her plan to change the racial demographics of the electorate heading into the 2021 congressional and legislative re-districting efforts (based on the 2020 Census). Abrams planned to prevent a "minority white conservative coalition" from governing in the South. Abrams said: "My eye is on 2021. Because when we do re-districting in 2021, if we have not changed the electorate, especially in the South, we will have a majority minority population that is governed by a minority white conservative coalition. And that’s the most dangerous precedent that we can possibly set for the South in the next 20 years," Stacey Abrams said at the 2014 Power PAC + National Conference, which was themed, "Race Will Win The Race: The Progressive Path To Victory."

Getting so tired of seeing/reading about this f'in bovine (MSM stuff, that is). I am getting the impression that since Boxcar checks enough blocks that "they" are prepping us with more to come from her. We shall see, but between Boxcar, Klobuchar, and that dimwit in Meeechigan, this country will continue to rot from within.

Why do the have to agitate the ponds in a sewage plant? Because scum naturally floats to the top and kills all of the other life in the pond. Think of our political system as a septic pond...
[NYPOST] Mayor Bill de Blasio ...cryptocommie mayor of New York and for some reason a Dem candidate for president in 2020. Corrupt and incompetent, his qualifications for office seem to consist of being married to a black woman, with whom he honeymooned in Cuba. He has a preppy-looking son named Dante, whose Divine Comedy involved getting his back hair up when a police car drove past him slowly. New Yorkers voted for him, so they deserve him... announced Sunday that he has put First Lady Chirlane McCray in charge of a special coronavirus (aka COVID19 or Chinese Plague) ...the twenty first century equivalent of bubonic plague, only instead of killing off a third of the population of Europe it kills 3.4 percent of those who notice they have it. It seems to be fond of the elderly, especially Iranian politicians and holy men... task force — insisting her work with her embattled ThriveNYC initiative made her perfect for the new job.
McCray will work with Deputy Mayor Phil Thompson in leading a task force on racial inclusion and equity to make sure the Big Apple rebounds as a "better and more just society than the one we left behind," Hizzoner said.
The mayor insisted that the First Lady deserved her place at the head of the new initiative because of the ideas she generated — defying critics and praising her work with her $250 million-a-year mental health plan.
"In terms of fighting inequality, Thrive has gone to that point and in many ways even farther," he insisted, praising his wife’s work in "putting a light" to serious issues, making her an obvious choice for the new role.
"I think that’s exactly the kind of mindset needed for this task force," he insisted of his 65-year-old wife.
Critics have charged that McCray’s ThriveNYC program is both ineffective and ripe for abuse as a political cudgel.
[BREITBART] Sunday on ABC’s "This Week," Sen. Amy Klobuchar Senatrix from Minnesota, candidate for the Dem presidential 2020 nomination. You can tell the kind of husband a boy will make by the way he treats his mother. You can tell the kind of leader a politician will make by the way he treats his staff. Klobuchar is reportedly overbearing, snide, and dictatorial with her people. She see this as merely getting the best from them. Her name spelled backward in the Russian alphabet would be "Rachubolk," which sounds pretty daggone suspicious... (D-MN) said America would not lead the world as long as Donald Trump ...The man who was so stupid he beat fourteen professional politicians, a former tech CEO, and a brain surgeon for the Republican nomination in 2016, then beat The Smartest Woman in the World in the general election... is president.
Klobuchar said, "I just keep focusing on this lack of leadership in the president, because of the fact that when you look back in history — and you’re a student of history. Out of the Great Depression, because of the leadership of Roosevelt, we got Social Security and a safety net and long-term changes. Out of the embarrassment of Russia and Sputnik, what happened when John F. Kennedy was president, he got America to rally, and to get the education we needed to put a man on the moon."
She added, "Well, this is this moment. So, you need to put someone in the White House — you know I’ve supported Vice President Biden and am excited about his candidacy — you need to put someone in the White House that’s going to have that long-term vision and isn’t going to spend day after day dividing people. So I look at the short term, let’s get the money out there for state and local governments, and then let’s look at the long term of how we’re going to make a steady economy so we can once again lead in the world. And we’re not going to do it with this president."

The world fucking hates us "leading" them. It's bullying. It's the major cause of problems for us overseas. It's also hugely expensive and doesn't work.

And don't forget the "king" of them all, Hillary.
It seems like a hockey stick chart with the recent increase in whacked-out female politicians. And it's not just a difference in opinion/political persuasion. Most of those broads mentioned are vile, mean people.
There is one thing that, really, I have to say haunts me from the trial and it was before that snippet you showed where we knew we had to answer the question to the senators, okay, essentially, house managers, you’ve proved him guilty [sic] , does he really need to be removed after all? we have an election in nine months. how much damage could he really do? and we posed that question to the Senate and we answered it by saying that he could do an awful lot of damage but frankly, chris, I don’t think we had any idea how much damage he would go on to do in the months ahead. There are 50,000 Americans now who are dead, in significant part because of his incompetence, because of his inability to think beyond himself and put the country first. I don’t think we would have ever anticipated that his brand of narcissism and his brand of incompetence would be so fatal to the American people.

I'm not sure I've ever come across anyone that better fits the description of a soulless, subhuman piece of feces than Schiff. Hell not even Ted Kennedy was this level of twilight zone crazy.

I think this crap (defined as Dem congresscritters who believe their sole responsibility is to harass Republicans) started with David Bonoir (D- MI), who hit Newt Gingrich with some ungodly number of lawsuits and ethics violation charges back in the 1990's. I believe that number was over 400 of them by the time he left Congress. Now it is commonplace to behave like a POS - Schiff, Nadler, Pelosi, Waters, et. al.
A glittering generality (also called glowing generality) is an emotionally appealing phrase so closely associated with highly valued concepts and beliefs that it carries conviction without supporting information or reason. Such highly valued concepts attract general approval and acclaim. Their appeal is to emotions such as love of country and home, and desire for peace, freedom, glory, and honor. They ask for approval without examination of the reason. They are typically used by politicians and propagandists.

As opposed to the hundreds of thousands dead in the civil war which otherwise would be raging now.

still banging pots and pans for attention and the media gladly supplying the attention.
the challenge will be to keep this loser from getting back to the public trough. Specimens like him and Stacey 'Refrigerator' Abrams have tasted the adulation of leftists and media and will stop at nothing to get a little of that back.

[BREITBART] Sunday on CNN’s "State of the Union," former Georgia Democratic gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams ...sour grapes lo-o-o-o-o-ser (Loser! Loser! Loser!) of the 2018 Georgia governor's race. Now she wants to be somebody's vice president so she can sour grape about that too... said America could not survive another term of President Donald Trump ...Oh, noze! Not him!... Abrams said, "Vice President Biden has done this job. He knows what he needs to do to win and what he needs to do to help our country recover from four years of incompetence and chaos. I trust Joe Foreign Policy Whiz Kid Biden ...The former Senator-for-Life from Delaware, an example of the kind of top-notch Washington intellect to be found in the World's Greatest Deliberative Body... to make the best decision. He has a smart team around him. He has no shortage of good candidates to choose from. Certainly, for the African-American community and communities of color because of this pandemic, there’s a great deal of distrust because these communities are being left to survive on their own often without the support that they need from those who are called to lead. I want to make one thing very clear, Joe Biden enjoys the trust of communities of color, and he will take no one for granted. I believe he will make the right choice based on what he understands and what his team recommends that he do."
She added, "Vice President Biden understands how critical this election is. With four decades of experience, he also knows the tricks Republicans will use to block change. We can’t survive another four years with Donald Trump, and that’s why my organization, Fair Fight 2020, is working nationally in 18 states to ensure that we have a president who actually believes in and trusts the American people." Pick ME, Pick ME, Pick ME!"

By "We" she is obviously referring to the Democratic Party and Deep State.
Not America.
She probably right, a second Trump term would mean he no longer has to worry about re-election and he (and Barr) can go after them with a vengence.

i know for leftists, her skin color is all the credentials she needs for a leadership role, but is that REALLY the only thing she has going for her?
No. She is practiced in the art of spouting bullshit.

Four more years and Democarts go the way of Federalists? If I were American I would ask "Where I sign up?"
A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
