[IsraelTimes] Former US president is alleged to have made fraudulent or misleading valuations of golf courses, skyscrapers and other properties in order to get loans and tax benefits.
Trump’s lawyers told Engoron during the hearing that having him sit for a civil deposition now, while his company is also the subject of a parallel criminal investigation, is an improper attempt to get around a state law barring prosecutors from calling someone to testify before a criminal grand jury without giving them immunity.
Former US president Donald Trump ...Perhaps no man has ever had as much fun being president of the US... must answer questions under oath in New York state’s civil investigation into his business practices, a judge ruled Thursday.

...I would assume that DJT has sufficient legal representation to keep this tied up for a while yet.

Valuations are estimates and are made by professionals, not the Principals. This will go nowhere but is just an attempt to build cred for when this partisan bitch runs for Gov

[National Pulse] Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s Capitol Police are alleged to have illegally entered the office of Congressman Troy Nehls (R-TX), photographing confidential legislative products and grilling staff, according to reports. The police — now under formal investigation — stand accused of dressing up as construction workers and attempting another entry just two days later.
The stunning, Watergate-style scandal comes after almost a year of warnings that Speaker Pelosi and Democrats in Congress were politicizing the Capitol Police, using them as a Stasi-style enforcement unit against GOP opponents. Reports suggest Capitol Police have built intelligence dossiers on those illegally investigated.
The documents photographed, says Nehls, are "protected by the Speech and Debate clause enshrined in the Constitution, Article 1 Section 6".
Nehls took to Twitter to explain the multiple incidents:
[RealClearInvestigations] Long before FBI computer contractor and Clinton operative Rodney L. Joffe allegedly trolled Internet traffic for dirt on President Trump, he mined direct-marketing contact lists for the names and addresses of unwitting Americans to target in a promotional scam involving a grandfather clock.
The Senate voted on Sen. Mike Lee’s (R-UT) amendment to the continuing resolution (CR), which would defund Biden’s remaining vaccine mandates. The measure failed 46-47, with Sens. Mitt Romney (R-UT), Jim Inhofe (R-OK), Lindsey Graham (R-SC), and Richard Burr (R-NC) failing to show up, depriving Senate Republicans a potential majority to pass the amendment to the CR.
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) set the vote threshold to a majority, and it remains possible that he could have set the threshold to 60 if Republicans had enough votes to pass with a majority; however, Democrats broke and voted to defund Biden’s private employer mandate the last time they voted on vaccine mandates. This could have put more pressure on Democrats to support the defunding of Biden’s vaccine mandates.

The pseudo-vaccine and "I am Science!" are the biomedical equivalent of "black lives matter."
Pierre Delicto and the other cucks are terrified of being called rayciss or anti-Science! and therefore take the knee rather than examine facts and apply logic to yield the conclusions that
- there is no such thing as "systemic police racism"
- the lockdowns and masks have caused extraordinary damage, for zero benefit
- this experimental gene therapy is not safe or effective for anyone who's not elderly or obese

So then, which of these shit weasels is going to call on hacking the massive peaceful civil disobedience called The Super Bowl attendee list and confiscate celebrity bank accounts? Moran?
Inhofe, you turd, gonna show off your Vaxx Doxx proof of shot card plus, what is it this week, 3 boosts?
Watch the interview with Hannity. Pompeo said nothing of troops or military action. He talked a lot about weakness. Weakness is an interesting topic. Most people are either weak or strong inherently. Some can learn but usually it is baked in from an early age. Weakness often reveals itself with inappropriate individual acts of strength (overreactions) in an attempt to change the perception about that person.
You can even see it on dogs. We have quite a few at home. Always have for the last 30 years or so. The pack leader is the most calm and sits virtually still while the others tip toe around her. How did that occur? The dogs can sense the vibe with very little action needed by the leader. The lowest on the totem pole will occasionally get into dog fights because his insecurity is so bad.
Joe Biden, Blinken and crew are hopelessly weak. That’s why it is always so dangerous to have a weak person in charge of the military. They are prone to mostly weak actions that lead up to a poorly timed attempt to correct that narrative.
Even this article quote’s the “tough guy” Biden looking Putin in the eyes and saying you have no soul. Putin must be laughing because he know’s it’s fake and just one of many corn pop style stories.
Specifically, Pompeo detailed weakness in the following ways;
1. Pathetic Iranian nuke deal
2. No response to Russia’s shutdown of gas lines in SE US.
3. Approving Nordstrom 2 (which Trump vetoed)
4. Not allowing shipment of US energy to Europe
(By the way all the energy items are huge. As Pompeo put it, we are putting Russian economy on warp speed.)
5. Allowing Iran to ship energy around the world
6. Allowing (under Obama regime) to take Crimea without consequence
7. Showing the whole world what a disastrous retreat and defeat looks like in Afghanistan.
8. Sending in the absolute fool, climate czar Kerry, to be the first to meet with Putin.
None of these items involved Raytheon or military action. You see, when Trump and Pompeo were sitting in the room their counterparts just know they weren’t f*cking around. Like the “pack leader”, they are able to avert most confrontation through strength. Reagan understood this inherently. Almost all leftists can’t even grasp this concept.

BTW, those are the point Pompeo made Hannity’s show. There are obviously tons of other examples. If I do fault Pompeo (and many other republicans, etc.) it’s going overboard to highlight the weakness. It further pushes this weak, incompetent crew to make some major mistakes to correct the narrative. I’m sure they are perplexed why all this is happening in Ukraine. They probably thought they made up for their Afghanistan debacle when they appointed the first transgender admiral 6 weeks later.
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.
