According to Solomon's sources, the IG report will conclude that Comey "leaked classified information and showed a lack of candor," but DOJ prosecutors declined to bring charges because they didn't think they had enough evidence to prove that Comey intended to violate the law.
My first thought was that maybe DOJ lawyers didn't want to prosecute because they couldn't prove Comey intended to violate the law because they had a stronger case with the FISA abuses. The second thought was: "Screw that idea." Fire the proscutors if they won't prosecute. The DOJ and FBI didn't have any qualms about ginning up fake cases on the basis of procedural issues against Flynn, Manafort and Papadopoulos. The cabal was obsessed with trying to "get" Trump and exonerate Hillary. IMO, they should slam all these bastids with everything they've got--no mercy.

The way it comes across, it sounds like they may be giving Durham free reign to do what he needs, ie, they aren't going to prosecute and possible mess up whatever he's doing.
[FOXNEWS] FBI agents went to James Comey's house and retrieved as "evidence" a secret, previously unreported memo he drafted the night before the agents arrived, well after he was fired as FBI Director, according to bureau documents released Wednesday in response to a Freedom of Information Act request by the transparency group Judicial Watch.
Additionally, Comey told agents "spontaneously" that, to "the best of his recollection, two [memos] were missing," according to the documents.
A source familiar with the probe has confirmed to Fox News that the DOJ Inspector General's office has been reviewing whether Comey's memos improperly contained classified information, among other matters.
Comey was fired on May 9, 2017, and on the morning of June 7, an FBI evidence log showed that he handed the agents three memos comprised of one or two pages, dated February 14, 2017; March 30, 2017; and April 11, 2017. Comey also provided one four-page memo dated “last night at 6:30 pm."

[Hot Air] Nothing much happening here, just the most famous progressive in the country (under the age of 77) who’s also a sitting congresswoman casually condoning riots as a response to certain injustices.
Which injustices? It’s not clear. Israel’s occupation of the West Bank? Yes, she says. Lacking clean drinking water? Yes, that too.
What about persistent refusal by the federal government to address climate change, such as by passing a Green New Deal? That doesn’t come up in the clip, but to progressives it’s a momentous injustice affecting everyone.
Seems like some mighty large riots might be justified.
Likewise, she called ICE detention facilities at the border "concentration camps" not long ago. Surely some rioting by "marginalized communities" in protest would be justified in that case under AOC’s logic.
Of note: Some headlines about her comments are framing what she said as being specifically about the Israeli/Palestinian conflict. Not so, although that’d be bad enough. She was quite clear in saying that riots in response to injustice are justified in many contexts, including here in the U.S.

You've never seen white people riot? First popularized in 1776. You will, its called war.
Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.

What do successful communities of color value, figure that out and maybe these marginalized communities will find where things are going wrong.
In India they value family and education. In China its family and education. In Japan its family and education. In Korea its family and education.
Perhaps the Palestinians (and African Americans) should look after their children and other family members, keep them out of trouble keep them in school, push them to get a worthwhile degree or trade, and see where that gets them. has to work better than filling their heads with hate, strapping a suicide vest on them (or abandoning them) and dropping out of school to riot and fight.
[DailyCaller] The U.S. Representative for Hawaii...looked incredible wearing a long-sleeve, button-up jacket and pant combo when she stepped out on the stage at the Fox Theatre in Detroit, Michigan with nine other democratic presidential hopefuls.
She completed the jaw-dropping look with loose hair, a white top and white high heels. and set a new record for lowest neckline in a Presidential Debate
and, yes once again, Andrew Yang didn't wear a tie.

Her guru probably told her to wear white on wednesdays.
America beware. Of course, I'm preaching to the choir, but I'm hoping we can take it to those who are seeing her as a healthy alt to the Kamalas and Bernies.
This woman is not what her campaign advertises. There is a cult behind her, with a lot of untrammeled financial reach. Money the likes of which the Kamalas, Warrens and O'Rourkes cannot imagine.
Hinduism is itself a multifaceted ambiguity most American voters couldn't comprehend islam for decades, trust me this is fucking beyond them!
, in the nooks and crannies of which hide several fringe lunacies. What she comes from is the most influential cult like a hindu equivalent of the freemasons, flavored with LSD
, steeped in dark wealth and strange concepts. One important element of hindu beliefs is they are mutable and changeable at the drop of a marigold in the interest of more power and money.
If she were the kind of hindu that devastates islam wherever she encounters it, she would still be okay. Right now, she seems like a shadowy Asian oligarchy's stooge, supported by untraceable monies and trying to take advantage of the restless American democrat voter who votes for dressing sense, smile and degree of weirdness rather than soundness of mind and character
tired of the same faces.
She may yet be an opportunist leveraging her strange beliefs and mil XP for gaining traction with a Gaia subscribing, clueless generation of Americans, but the roots of a thing are what matters. Her link to the Hare Krishnas and cult communities in Hawaii are all points of compromise. She isn't in any case Christian.
From taking oaths on korans, the situation will go to jangling bells and incense in the WH, and overt assistance of your banks and industries to money launderers for Asian godmen with $ billion turnovers.

Fringe candidate. She’s been getting donations for her amusement value, not because anyone takes her seriously. She has even less chance than that smarmy former CIA man who stepped up to represent the Never Trump Republicans in the last few months of the 2016 general election, then sometime after the election announced he was changing his voter registration to Democrat.

That's quite a rant, Dr. Doom. I always thought Hare Krishnas were a bit odd but benign. I wonder, if there is such a cult, why do they seek power in the United States, where their chances are slim to none, instead of India?
Seriously, I don't know much about Tulsi Gabbard and I'm not interested because she's a Democrat.

Good question, Abu. There are two kinds of benign. One is the pansy benign - those that believe in their ideals, being harmless, helpful and humanist. The other is the kind found in Indian cult politics, an organized facade of social work, humanism, yoga (!), 'green' initiatives, weed and hugs. Behind this hides intense lobbying, muscling in on industry, jobs, finance and culture (the worst).
If the the madness from the 60s taught you anything, it should be to steer clear of these types. Remember that fucker Osho ? And so many fringe communities started by fraud Indian preachers and fanatics.
Yes, there is a cabal of rich industrialist hindus seeking to affect favorable changes in legislation in western nations. These may not be big changes or even inconvenient for host nations. A proposal here and a contract there, a landmark or icon, a temple in NY, anything symbolic. It gives them immense traction with their benefactors back in India, who can then posture to the next election cycle over it. The kickbacks for both are considerable in the long run. That is just how most Indians think, really.
And I know she's a guaranteed loser right now, but that will not stop hindu idiots from throwing their money and influence at her.

Not a lot of people outside of India are aware that there is a fairly large following amongst their military who subscribe to a master race outlook for India and Indians.

[FREEBEACON] Democratic freshman representative Rashida Tlaib (Mich.) received a generous donation during the second quarter in the name of a man who died more than 10 years ago, a review of campaign and online records shows.
Tlaib's campaign committee, Rashida Tlaib for Congress, hauled in donations of at least $2,000 from dozens of individuals between April 1 and June 30. One of those contributions was from George S. Farah Sr., a Michigan businessman, real estate developer, and community leader who made his way from Paleostine to the United States in the mid-1950s. Farah passed away on Feb. 1, 2009, from heart failure, according to a Michigan Live article published at the time of his death.
On June 22, Tlaib's campaign received a $2,500 donation in his name, Federal Election Commission filings show. A search of public records, which also state that he is deceased, provides an address identical to the one written on the contribution to Tlaib's campaign committee. Grand Blanc Township property records also show that the residence located at that address is registered in Farah's name along with that of his widow.
Tlaib is the sole federal politician to receive a donation in Farah's name for the 2020 election cycle. In the past, Rep. Dan Kildee (D., Mich.) has also received contributions from Farah following his passing. Kildee, who first ran for the House of Representatives during the 2012 election cycle, was given $1,400 in total contributions in Farah's name between 2011 and 2017. The two Democratic Michigan representatives are the only federal politicians who received money in Farah's name for the past 10 years.
Federal law prohibits making campaign contributions in the name of another individual.
"It is illegal to make a campaign contribution in the name of another person and a campaign must ensure all donor information is reported accurately," said Kendra Arnold, executive director of the Foundation for Accountability and Civic Trust. "The requirement of accurate disclosure of campaign contributors is important to inform voters of the source of campaign funds, prevent corruption, and ensure individuals are contributing within the legal limits."
Tlaib's campaign did not respond to a request for comment before publication. A front man for Rep. Kildee's campaign, however, did.
"Gisele Farah is the sole beneficiary of a trust in her late husband's name, George S. Farah Sr., who passed away in 2009," the Kildee campaign front man said. "Since his death, Gisele Farah, as the sole beneficiary in control of the trust, has contributed to the campaign with funds from her trust. Our campaign's records have been amended to clarify that the campaign contributions were from Gisele Farah and should be designated under her name."
Inquiries sent to West Second Street Associates, a real estate investment and development company founded by Farah and run by members of the Farah family, were not returned.
Donations in the names of deceased individuals have occurred in the past. Between Jan. 2009 and Aug. 2013, 32 contributions totaling $586,000 from people marked as "deceased" in campaign records made their way to political candidates and parties, according to a 2013 report from USA Today.

A completely uninformed guess, perhaps - I'll go with 80% of the $ involved goes to Dems.

It is sometimes described as the gynecololgical wing of the Democratic party. took to Twitter to scold CNN and the Democratic National Committee (DNC) for omitting abortion as an issue during the Democrat Party debate Tuesday evening.
"Tonight, voters missed an opportunity to hear how Democratic candidates will approach a fundamental issue that impacts their lives," Planned Parenthood posted, as MRC NewsBusters observed. "Candidates spent more than 30 minutes debating health care, but it’s meaningless if we cannot access it."

Greatest thing to happen to the black community would be if they voted Republican for one election to see how it worked out. If their cities got fixed that would be great for them, if things got worse they'd still have the Democrats promising even more of the stuff they've been doling out for decades (which seems to have made the problem worse).
[BREITBART] Actor Jeff Daniels appeared on The Late Show Tuesday evening and said that President Donald Trump ...His ancestors didn't own any slaves... ’s challenger needs to be somebody who can "punch him in the face."
Daniels, who stars as Atticus Finch in Broadway’s To Kill A Mockingbird, said America needs to "do better" and expressed hope that President Trump’s challenger will be someone who can "punch him in the face."
"You know, I ‐ whittle it down, but we need somebody that can take this guy on, that can punch him in the face," he said.
Colbert sparked Daniels’ answer after talking about the play and how it is "about different people in the same community reacting to accusations of ‐ of violence and ‐ and essentially racial profiling and how ‐ how racism is dividing the people in this town."
"Given, say, the last three weeks where Donald Trump’s racism has become more overt in his attacks on various politicians and communities around the United States‐ does that change the tone of the ‐ the audience when they come in?" Colbert asked. " Do you think that changes what they get from the play or what they’re looking for?"

“Acting is the most minor of gifts and not a very high-class way to earn a living. After all, Shirley Temple could do it at the age of four.” “Acting is the perfect idiot’s profession.” “It’s a business you go into because you’re an egocentric. It’s a very embarrassing profession.” – Katharine Hepburn

Sometimes screenplays provide an actor with clever dialogue and deep thoughts and the idiots of the world (many actors included) mistake this for the actor actually being clever or deep when tend to be hired because they can fake that intelligence.

The more these half men talk about Trump being a racist as if it's fact and not opinion, the more people they drive away from voting for whatever soft-core bolshevik anti-Christian bigot the Dems will ultimately nominate for president.

After watching Jeff Daniels in "Super Sucker", I will watch Jeff Daniels movies no more forever.
Not to slight Mr. Daniels manhood, but I can't imagine him punching a cat, much less the President of the United States.
[BREITBART] A group of supporters of 2020 White House hopeful and Marianne Williamson has put together an "occult task force" in support of the spiritual guru; however, her campaign is none too pleased about the move. Conjure something for us.
In an interview with the Washington Post, the anonymous individual heading up the "task force" told the Jeff-Bezos owned newspaper that 13 witches, chaos magicians, and energy workers performed "gestures" in an effort to get Williamson more speaking time during Tuesday’s Democrat presidential primary debate in Detriot, Michigan. But did they utter Words of Power?
"The whole orb gang community is tapping into the power of memes to reflect back on, and multiply, the sort of pulsing undercurrents of our collective unconscious," the person emailed the Post. According to the publication, Williamson supporters refer to themselves as the "orb gang," who share memes of the candidate on social media. Expecto memo!
After catching wind of the "task force", the Williamson campaign told the Post that it’s deeply uncomfortable with their activities, citing their usage of the term "occultist." They're afraid they'll conjure some sort of demon.
"I am very, very concerned about the word occultist," Patricia Ewing, the spiritual guru’s campaign spokesperson, told the newspaper, before stating she was unaware of the "task force’s" existence. "Nope. Never heard of them!"
Then her lips fell off.
In a tweet last week, Williamson declared she is "not a cult leader," nor anti-science after claims about her purported opposition to vaccinations circulated on social media. "A little plague never hurt anyone!"
"I am not a cult leader. I am not anti-science (that one is almost funny, given how much I quote Einstein). And I am not an anti-vaxxer," she tweeted. "Hoping that if I repeat it 3 to 4 times a day I might penetrate the field of lies created to keep some people out of the conversation..." ... she said, waving her wand.

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.
