Jonah Goldberg, Marie Harf, Gillian Turner and Juan Williams. Good grief. If I spent a whole day scratching my head trying to come up with a worse panel, I’m not sure I could top that one.

Wow. All the panels for the network shows, i.e., Fox, MTP, FTN, and TW are totally weighted against Trump. A coincidence? I don’t think so. The MSM is working with the Dems to take the kill shot this coming week. Impeachment fever will reach its zenith before Thanksgiving.

In the meantime, the IG report is always just over the horizon. Demoralizing and depressing.

To: Alas Babylon!; All
Morning AB yet another action packed week on the political front with many issues at hand.
Here's one I have been working on since I was given a suggestion to review Baar’s speech by an impeccible source and as usual he was right. It's phenomenal. Here's some notes I made after watching it. By the way it's right here on Fr all printed out so neatly anyone can read it:

www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3794380/posts

and I advise everyone here to both watch it online and read it,since it's a true work of art.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MeMwdtbPR6g

Baar believes that the executive branch of govt. needs to be held by a strong leader with power equal to the legislature and with the executive branch applying laws passed by the legislature.
He remarked that early states, in the early 1800’s that passed strong legislatures and weak executives were all but failures due to weak executives.
Baar suggests that the founders believed that it was
prudent to invest power into a single hand, that of the President with authority to defend the country in most any way necessary.
Baar believes that executive power had been weakened over the past few decades in favor of socialistic tendencies now quite apparent.
The presidency should be a check on the legislative branch under 17th century Whig theology and thought accd. to Baar.
Power sharing should be decidedly well organized and delineated.
Recently both legislative and judicial have been encroaching on the Presidency.
Example:dems using “the resistance” to sabotage Trump. Baar says resistance being used connotates sabotage which is what it really is and places politics into the process instead of just being the loyal opposition. Instead, the hard left is engaged in a war to cripple a duly elected Presidential govt.
******
Inserting the politics of sabotage is designed to prevent the potus from building a functional branch of govt.*******
Dems are drowning the executive with an avalanche of subpoenas designed to not allow the executive branch to function normally.
Those who oppose the potus constantly accuse the president of destroying the constitution which is just more projection, IMHO.
Trump was up front about what he wanted to do and the people decided that they wanted him for President.
“The left constantly undermines the rule of law and shreds the norms of normal govt.”
Hard left treats politics as a religion accd. to an abstract ideal of perfection. They pretend to be virtuous people with an ideal end. They never ask if their rules are fair and balanced and it amounts to shredding constitutional norms.
Rule of law should include: “is it good for all of society.?”
The founders envisioned that: Compromise should be forced by both branches of govt. with each branch being forced to compromise their views with the other.
Courts routinely excerpt the power of the President. In The travel bann example, Baar believes judicial review is expanded. These types of powers were meant to be solved by the Presidency where unusual problems with time sensitive issues need solutions quickly.
Courts are routinely excerpting the power of the presidency when it was designed that they would only look at Executive orders,EO’s, issued by the presidency.
Every major policy*********** of the Trump adm has been subjected to immediate freezing by the courts with judges appointed by former left wing Presidents like Obama or Clinton. Presidential policies are being frozen nation wide by 600 judges.This has created judge shopping.
Daca was an EO by zero and it’s illegitimacy upheld by the courts. The left uses judges to achieve the destruction of trumps policies. Few are approved by Trump due to the courts constant interference.
Baar believes that the Supreme court is setting itself up as the ultimate judge of military decisions giving foreign combatants US citizen rights which Baar believes is beyond stupid. The Supreme Court is creating rules for war!! What idiots.
“It’s not the courts job to protect foreign enemies, that’s insane.”
Baar believes that it’s Critical for the presidency to continue to be manned by a strong independent leader providing leadership in a variety of issues.
………………………………………………………………………….

If you take one small part of Baar’s speech and really think about it:

“Recently both legislative and judicial have been encroaching on the Presidency.
Example:dems using “the resistance” to sabotage Trump. Baar says resistance being used connotes sabotage which is what it really is and places politics into the process instead of just being the loyal opposition. Instead, the hard left is engaged in a war to cripple a duly elected Presidential govt.”
…………..
It might pay to go one step beyond. We already know the above it just has not been so well organized as Baar has laid it all out,sheer genius.
What needs to be done at this point is to decide whether or not the DNC has what it takes to put all this together.If you come up with the same answer I do that: “they are too stupid to get the job done” that they are merely following someone else’s lead. Than the question becomes who has designed this entire process of unseating a duly elected President.?
The answer doesn't take much insight if you have been paying attention to what transpires since before Trump was elected and the day after he took office,it's quite apparent.
First and foremost the fisa warrant was begun some time ago. When you get to the bottom of it you quickly learn that at least one of the major players if not “the” key player was none other than:John Brennan,muslim supreme,and head of what organization?CIA!
Has this factoid escaped the view of the administration?Hardly! Brennan is under review and has been along with many other players.Best guesses are their time will come for the orange jump suits.
Yet another more recent player Eric Ciaramella(cinderella) has quite the assoc. with the CIA and Brennan for that matter as do so many other players you begin to get

the picture that there is one and only one major player behind the goal of upending the Trump presidency and it all starts with the company.
Ironically,Barr was a full-time CIA operative! Recruited by Langley out of high school, starting in 1971 after Barr attended Columbia University, where he majored in government and graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in 1971. Barr’s youth career goal was to head the CIA.
When Bush 41 became CIA Director in 1976, Barr joined the CIA’s “legal office” and Bush’s inner circle, and worked alongside Bush’s longtime CIA enforcers Theodore “Ted” Shackley, Felix Rodriguez, Thomas Clines, and others.

https://drrichswier.com/2019/09/10/ag-william-barr-cia-asset-and-deep-state-impresario/

The piece above suggests that Baar’s CIA roots began with his Father and that Baar is and was a secret deep stater with friend like Rosenstein and notedly Mueller.Supposedly Baar and Mueller were “close” to say the least.
So the question becomes who is Baar today? I have sources on both sides of the question. Some say he's still deep state others say that he's the absolute best choice that Trump could have made.
Others suggest he has done little when it comes to jailing the bad guys. But, timing can be crucial. And when it comes to second guessing Trump that's not for me.
Most likely the most prudent thing to do these days is to judge by actions. Let's see what the guy does and doesn't do.
For me after reading and watching Baars impeccable speech before the Federalist Society above it's hard to imagine Bill Baar as deep stater. Impeccible sources claim that he's the real deal and we should support him all the way.
You have to wonder however how he can do such a wonderful piece like the above and not mention even once the influence of the CIA? They are all over the place trying their best to help the DNC and destroy Trump. Most liely he has numerous gag orders placed on him so he is prohibited from mentioning them and if he wanted to lay out a story that points directly to them he could hardly have done a better job than what he did.
For now the jury is out. On the surface it appears things are happening at a slow pace as far as jailing bad guys. At lest what we know about. If you look a little deeper you soon learn that lots of actions are going on in the background and that Trump is destroying the deep state faster than anyone ever anticipated. Is Baar a part of that?Hard to imagine he's not.
That's good enough for me for now.

Good morning, Alas Babylon!

Excellent descriptions of the guests on this morning’s shows.

Thanks so much for the awesome COMING SOON: FOUR MORE YEARS!!

That—and PDJT’s tweet this morning, assuring us that his health is good (great)—certainly got today off on a high note!

The idea that it is OK to withhold justice because Obama is implicated is abhorrent to me.

I do not at all agree with the idea that Obama must be protected. The rule of law must be followed, even if it was the first black president who played fast and loose with the law. We have equal justice, or we don’t.

It would be a terrible precedent to give Obama a pass, just awful.

I don’t have a TV. But if I did, Sunday Morning Features (FNC) would be the only thing worth watching. Except for Meat the Press which I might watch just for laughs.

Since Vindmans name keeps coming up, here is the Treehouses take. It doesn’t get much better:

then there is this also from the treehouse:

The “Coup” Against a Sitting U.S. President Became Official on October 29th, 2019…
Posted on November 9, 2019 by sundance
The word “coup” shifted to a new level of formalized meaning last week when members of the political resistance showed up to remove President Trump wearing military uniforms.
Not only did U.S. military leadership remain silent to the optics and purpose, but in the testimony of Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman he admits to giving instructions to ignore the instructions from a sitting United States President.
In the absence of push-back from the Joint Chiefs, from this moment forth, the impression is tacit U.S. military support for the Vindman objective.

ON FNS Juan Williams is being the stupid black TDS guy, again, making money for being stupid. So sad, not helping his race whatsoever.

The curse of high intelligence is that you must watch the less intelligent fumble around, getting in the way, unable to comprehend what you understand immediately.
