Good morning AB, All.
As always, thank you AB for doing this thread. Thank you Bray for weekly wisdom and thank all yon commenters who click in to add dimension to the narrative and detail.
The Week Just Passed
Still the Russians hacked our election. I am convinced that the Russians caused Comcast to go out in these parts to be done for twelve hours.
The biggest note I make about this Russian thing is how it’s being shouted that SEVENTEEN Intelligence agencies declare the Russians caused Hillary to lost. Seventeen? First, why on earth do we need 17 intelligence agencies? I should think that one would be enough but can’t we cull down to four or five? Further, the FBI this day says the Russians had nothing to do with the election. The next day the FBI says the Russians definitely did cause Trump to win.
The way this works….Hillary gets her people to call everyone they know. They call people at the FBI, preferably someone they have something for blackmailing purposes. They call people at all of those 17 intelligence agencies, again people for whom they have bribable secrets. They call and call and they keep the waters roiling.
But like the silly re-vote count of last week, the blackmailing and threats to the electors, the nonsense about, heh, having all the electors get intelligence briefings…..heh, these briefings from the Intelligence Department to Use When No Other Will Do. It’s part of the DOJ. Also like the riots right after the elections…..the public raises eyebrows and ignores.
Now is the Russians and ain’t nobody buying that either.
Next, this thing about Trump divesting himself of his businesses….come on people. This is another Hillary scheme, call all your friends for whom you have bribable info, and have them shout and scream that Trump must sell all his property, his hotels, even his furniture from Mar-a-lago. There is no way we should be forcing presidential winners to sell all their property. But they’ll make a big deal about it because Hillary’s got lots of info on people and while they don’t like her, they’ll keep stirring the pot as required.
Finally, be advised that the male Olivia Pope of this administration seems to be Van Jones. Olivia Pope, in case one does not know, is the female on SCANDAL who makes her living tamping controversies. Van Jones, an avowed Communist, does the opposite. Van Jones CREATES scandals. Turns out there was all kinds of connections between Jones and that lying elector from Texas, who turned out to be a fraud. Y’all hear about that? Ask me if you don’t know.
On a Personal Note
Had a terrible week last week but I ain’t going to talk about it. Have nowhere to go on Christmas day because the person who invited me asked me to change it to Christmas eve. I could not for good reasons but I swear, had I invited someone to my house on Christmas day I would NEVER change it and leave them in the lurch. This one week before Christmas.
But don’t cry for me, Argentina. I got some people coming to MY house. Trust that I will never depend on anyone else again.
Trust that I have lots of wonderful friends who check on me and are great company.
I just do not have any kind of family.
Finally, I am compiling my “bucket” list. No I am not going to die anytime soon. But I do not spring from long-lived people, my cousin Mike on this thread excepted. Father died at 65, mother at 73, sister had horrible stroke at age 64 and I myself had quadruple bypass almost ten years ago and recently had a stent put in.
I figure I got maybe ten years of reasonably healthy life left and believe me I do all the right things….gym, meds, doctors. I’m not a nut about it but I am fighting odds.
Anyway, ten years to fulfill my bucket list and it’s an interesting one.
One of the items, just to tease, is to go on a cruise.
I have never been on a cruise. I will figure out a way.
Thank you and Merry Christmas to you and yours!
ALL Y’all!
Podesta’s job is to blame Russia (not his candidate or himself) and plead with electors to turn.
Can Hillary legally mess with the Electoral College after losing the election? If Russia hacked the election, why did Hillary win the popular vote?
This one:
FACE THE NATION (CBS): Kellyanne Conway, adviser to President-elect Donald Trump; former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger; former national security adviser Tom Donilon.
This is an interesting one. Henry Kissinger. like or dislike him, he carries a hefty amount of gravitas. He may be the voice of the globalists or the ‘political wing’ of the globalist revolutionaries.
Russia didn’t hack the election. Period.
The coup attempt with never fade with time.
Some smart person will write a definitive and accurate history of this election and capture in rapt detail the corruption and traitorous actions of the left.
Every bad actor, every contribution to the Hate America First cause will be noted for all time.
I’ll be looking forward to proof reading that one.
Over the past eight years we have not only fought the enemy outside the country but the enemy from within. They have devastated our military and tried their best to bring it to its knees.
They failed of course because everyone underestimates the resolve of the American frighting man who remains the best there is.
Now its time to rebuild the military give it the status and respect it deserves and fortunately for the country we have a Commander-in-Chief who is up to the task.
As far as the Mideast goes its always been a huge cluster and probably always will be.The Christians there are never the problem. It's the mad muzzies who have been brainwashed all their lives operating with IQ's under 100 that destroy country after country.
Thank God we have the right CIC for a change.
Anyone who plays the drinking game while watching Podesta and takes a drink whenever he lies will be drunk in no time.
Good job,know your enemy.
Answer to your two-part question:
A.) No, she’s done.
B.) That’s a very good question to ask the media!
I sure miss it, the Spanish mackerel bite is off the charts,sailfish are everywhere,bottom bite for muttons, grouper, yellowtail great, and backcountry guys scoring as well.
Thank God we have the right CIC for a change.
...
Truly you are.a great guy...would love to have a beer with and shoot the breeze.
Clinton cannot face reality without blaming someone. She has pointed the finger at the FBI Director. She now concludes it must be Russia. Could the reason for her loss be the person she sees in the mirror on the wall?
I do believe our very own Professor Larry Schweikart is writing such a volume!

Donna Brazile on ABC--now that's reaching into the bottom of the barrel for dishonest, shameless pols.
OMG--no Georgie Steph today. Another Dem sycophant Martha Raddatz will sniffle her way through the interview.
Wallace is still pushing the fake Russians won the election story. Good grief.
Rinse on with Walice, who is asking him if the CIA is lying. Rinse coming back with RAT shenanigan attempts to deligitimize the election.
Walice persists in asking if Trump accepts Brennen's statement.
Rinse says there are so many conflicting stories coming from different sources.
"Does Trump trust our intelligence sources or the Russian denials?"
The media lacks logic, only political spins depending on a D or R next to their names.
