Pompeo knows that the Russians, Norks,Chicoms,loads of other countries are interfering as much as possible cyberwise 24/7 but fails to point out the distinction since it would help the administration.This guy is pathetic at best.

No Chris Wallace. Pompeo is doing an excellent job defending Trump's taking a meeting with Kim Jong Un, and noting the preconditions are pretty straightforward - no more testing of missiles, nukes; allow military exercises by SK/US.

Says no concessions coming from US. NK must de-nuke.

LOL, Move on to Russia. Pompeo says Russian interference in US election goes to the top (as ours did in electing Yeltsin). No evidence that any vote was changed by Russian interference. Russian collusion? Answer was basically no comment, other than Trump campaign and CIA have been cooperative.

Also discuss Russian new hyper missile, China and "president for life", and tariffs.

Good interview.

I’m guessing POTUS went to deep talking about NK as though it is a done deal, I’m thinking Q is saying it is not ready to go that deep yet as it could yet go wrong, pure speculation on my part because the President is so confident which indicates to me yeah it is a done deal.
Corsi seems to be connected so I can’t wait to see how he decodes it; probably sometime today.

I like how Q forces us to think, focus and dig. Also Q said we will at some point know exactly who he is and will be surprised that we know him.

-- POmpeo less that stellar today. Defending the Russia interfered with the elections BS meme. He appears to be deep state at best. --

I got a different vibe. Take for argument's sake that Russians attempted to interfere with the elction process. Say they managed to get some opinion pieces published, or influenced the content of them; or that they were colluding directly with the DEMs.

It doesn't necessarily foloow that the effort was a big deal as to ramifications. Only that there was an effort. The press studiously avoids the "how substantial were the ramifications" question, and leaps directly to "the ramifications were substantial."

I thought he did an excellent job supporting Trump's NK success.

Soros continues to fund unrest throughout the world too.
The Democrats bow down and kiss the Soros ring, in exchange for funding. The Obama and Hillary ties to Russia are ignored. Maybe Hillary has new FBI files on lots of people.
She sure deleted lots of stuff never revealed. The media cannot report the real news, for fear of retaliation.

There’s about 8,000 different networks delivered by cable provider. Also the Internet has Roku, Hulu, Netflix and other content providers.

I thought about the cultural changes brought about by this and think our common history as Baby Boomers was especially unique.

I say this because for about 40 years or so, we all experienced the new thing called Television but in our lives it was limited but that had a big impact on our culture.

We had three networks; ABC, CBS and NBC. PBS was a junior partner. What this meant is we all had cultural ties to certain things. As a society, we could talk in school or around the office water cooler about the show the next day.

Who hadn't watched the Beatles debut on the Ed Sullivan Show?

If you lived in the Fifties and Sixties, you knew about:
Milton Berle,
Ozzie and Harriet and David Nelson,
The Flintstones and the Jetsons,
Dick Van Dyke,
Cowboy/Westerns,
Lost in Space,
campy Batman,
The Monkees,
Wild World of Sports and the guy falling down the ski jump,
Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom and how Marlin got to hold the chimp in the studio while Jim got to wrestle the crocodile,
Laugh-in,
Adam-12,
Walter Cronkite,
space launches live on TV,
Vietnam War coverage from the field,
Watergate,
Saturday Night Live,
Taxi,
Barney Miller,
Dallas,
Cheers,
Challenger exploding,
The Fall of the Berlin Wall...

Then the Fox channel and cable TV started to dilute the common culture and in the 1990s the Internet spread it like a falling rock causing rings in a pond...

So nowadays no one watches the same thing.

Honestly, I've never watched 24 or the Walking Dead. Wildly popular at least here but their numbers are nothing compared to Ed Sullivan's show on a bad night without Topo Gigio (the mouse puppet) and no teenage singing guests.

I don't watch network or even cable news any longer but get it here and on Youtube. I no longer read newspapers or news magazines but listen to Rush on Youtube every evening and read Drudge a couple of times a day.

My 88 year old father still watches the Nightly News every evening and the Today show every morning--he hates Trump--surprised?

Still, we are bound by our culture, so we need to keep in mind the culture we grew up with is dead or in the past.

Kids today have way more choices and avenues to go down. What is popular is some show with a 7% audience rather that the 60-75% of our day.

NO question.I can’t find the link now but it appears the Deep State is moving in to takeover the dems. They are successfully running lots of candidates who have been funded by let wing pacs such as the one
http://thehill.com/blogs/blog-briefing-room/news/372200-record-number-of-scientists-running-for-office-in-2018

pac 314, a far left wing group, is funding loads of scientists since Trump doesn’t not buy the global warming BS.

http://dailycaller.com/2017/04/22/left-wing-climatologist-uses-own-pac-to-promote-nonpartisan-earth-day-march/
.............
In addition former cia/nsa intel guys are already signed up for over 20 seats,always on the dem side by the way.
Deep State never give up only moves on.

Rush had a great montage this week when Trump announced his meeting with the NORK’s Kim. At first, the driveby anchors were close to praising Trump for his audacious brilliance, but after a few hours and the talking points faxed to all concerned, they were all singing the same old song and dance:

Kim was setting Trump up, as Trump would give away the store for a little flattery and ego massaging. Kim = smart; Trump = Dumb.

-- I'm guessing POTUS went to deep talking about NK as though it is a done deal ... --

This isn't a good thread to discuss Q, and the Q threads provide the context that may answer this question.

That said, I think the "too deep" is a reference to hidden personal and political relationships that transcend borders, e.g., US and parts of the Nazi war machine were cooperative before during and after WWII, with family effects that persist to this day. My take is that history is more complex than most of us are given, and the "deep truth" that world governments are substantially puppets of larger forces is in fact reality.

I also think there is little or no value in plumbing history. Doing so distracts from the mission. Secure the borders, and try to restore the American dream.

The media under estimates Trump over and over. He play them like a fiddle and they are too thick headed to understand anything. They make the same mistakes over and over and are never put in their place, being properly corrected. There is no teacher in the classroom when it comes to the media.

Glad you brought it up the North Korea thing:

http://thehill.com/policy/defense/358016-up-to-200-killed-in-north-korean-nuclear-test-site-collapse-report

Which may well have been more that just “an unforced tunnel closing.” Rumors are that there was a little bit of help in closing the area and other suggestions are that the Norks lost big time in a lot of their nuclear endeavors. Stuff that will take forever to get back and cost lot of money that they don’t have. So they just didn’t decide to be good guys and come to the table “they are broke and broken” courtesy of the Donald.
President Trump has put so many sanctions on the Norks (reportedly with help from the Chicoms) that the Norks are nearly broke. They run out of money this fall and even fat Kim knows what that means.
So they are ready to chat,who knew?

The media wants the money from the political ads. Election years are big revenue years for the networks. The money goes to them, after they stirred the pot enough to have competitive races. Political ads drives this madness. The candidates raise the money and the media collects it with political ads.

Great post. Once again this week it was suggested possibly by Sara Carter,can’t recall that fusion gps is funded by Soros and a handful of southern Calif. libs

https://saraacarter.com/ex-british-spy-knew-who-funded-dossier-fbi-told-secret-court-something-different/

Only one of the reasons everyone played fast and loose with the fisa warrant and told the judges any fairy tale that popped into their mind since the judges always defer to FBI/doj wishes.
