The controversy “was not a focus of their conversation or a topic,” White House press secretary Jen Psaki told reporters during her daily briefing Tuesday.

Could this woman be any more obvious? Nobody talks that way unless they're dodging. The answer, Mz. Psaki, is a) Yes, they discussed it, or b) No, they did not discuss it.

You circle back with me on that and we'll conversate further.

From what I understand, you have to have the Xfinity X1 cable box. Check your bill. If you see a monthly DVR service fee and a per month HD technology fee, that’s their hidden way of charging for X1. If that’s what you have, you have a beef, because you’re paying for it. Have you tried getting it on the xfinity streaming app? I believe it is free to all subscribers. Once downloaded at the xfinity website, you can stream onto a desktop, tablet, phone. If you can get newsmax via that route, you should be able to get it via your tv. Complain!

Disclaimer: I have no expertise in this. For too long, I had no idea I could get Newsmax with my cable subscription. Well worth the effort to track it down. Good luck.

Maybe they did. He was certainly on their radar with the Lerner collusion and refusal to testify. Who knows, maybe they already flipped him and this resignation frees him up to make contacts. Fun fantasy, anyway. But you know his cohorts have got to be wondering the same. Persona non grata in any circles. If nothing else, it’s some small satisfaction to imagine the paranoia now consuming swamp creatures, big and small.

A resignation in “protest” of Barr. Gee, Pilger is so principled. Probably so disheartened all he can think of is a much-needed vacation to a country without extradition.

Nice. Still their lead story. I find nothing about the Veritas tapes with the Democrat operative bragging about voter fraud. I checked two of the local TV network affiliates’ websites to see if maybe they had coverage.
(CBS =wcco; ABC= kstp.) What a surprise. Not one word. But there were several stories on Trump’s taxes.

A detour to Puerto Rico... are these union workers drunk, incompetent, or just setting up all their plausible deniability for ballots? Glad you finally got delivery, anyway.. The USPS deletion of the tracking history is a nice touch. Telling bit of info.

Guess I’d better take a screen shot of the tracking log for an envelope I’m expecting. Sent 17 days ago. Last transit entry was 13 days ago, showing it hadn’t even left the state it was sent from.

Nice catch. 70 million dead. Especially nice, after her own opening remarks about how critical it was to be precise...a characteristic only she and her liberal/socialist cohorts possess, in contrast to Republicans. I think Pelosi got rattled/PO’d with Woodruff’s failure to fawn over her and the Democrat position. Loved when she accused Woodruff of advocating for the Republican position. After that, Pelosi was all over the place, spewing random talking points babble about Republican tax cuts for the richest of the rich while children go without food and water.

On the other hand, Pelosi’s teeth seemed to fit better today.

You’re wasting your talents on whatever your real day job is. Or, you’ve bugged Biden’s office and have merely transcribed the audio.

Whichever it was...glad you did it. Great post. Still grinning.

It is far more than histrionics. It threatens the very fabric of our nation. One party being unwilling to accept the results of an election, threatens the foundations of the country.

Well said. I've had it with the soft peddling of what is happening here. This is not a mere attack on Trump, the man. Nor are the perpetrators mere emotional toddlers. We face a calculated, sustained threat.

There’s nothing inappropriate about:
“We’ve got the former Veep here bragging in public that he strong-armed you guys. Any truth to that?”

Exactly. And this is how the Repubs should have been saying it. Over and over and over. It's just that simple. Instead, they bury it all in too many words, just like they always do. Like the author of this article.

This “church” is no such thing. It’s a very un-christian Social Club Wannabe. With delusions.

Yes, their attendance sucks. 25 people attend regularly. They can’t even afford a minister, so the congregates do it all, including sermons. So what does the regional body do? They allocate $250K—not to hire a minister, but to hire a 30 year old marketing consultant who thinks he’s rebranding a sports bar. “It’s a new thing with a new mission for a new target and a new culture,” he says.

A “new thing?” Why, yes, yes it is. It’s so new, not even Jesus Christ thought of it.

As others have said, gobsmacked. But then, this IS Minnesota.

Didn’t see your reply til I posted mine. GMTA. :-)

“Biden’s tweet” was no doubt written by staffers/lawyers. If Biden had written it himself, there would have been a challenge to take the matter out back in a to-the-death push-up contest.

Sorry, Chelsea, it’s not photoshopped. It’s an original, untouched photograph of Abraham Lincoln waiting for a bus in front of the Washington Monument. It’s been cropped, though, so you can’t see the native American activist drum-beater in his face just to his right.

Pierre Delecto was definitely running as of last Sunday, and HE may think he still running...

but he sealed his non-starter fate in 2011 when he opened his Twitter account and selected that name.

More fake news...about the Fake News. ABC News did not apologize. Someone in the employ of ABC News issued a weasel-worded “correction” that they hope might give them cover for malfeasance and/or gross negligence. (My money is on deliberate malfeasance.)

“ABC News regrets the error” is not an apology. It has all the sincerity of the automated prompts on a Comcast phone tree. An actual apology acknowledges the wrongness of an act or omission and the harm it has caused. An apology directs itself to the offended parties, along with some gesture of intent to do better or to rectify the wrong.

Of course, in real life, decent people know this instinctively. They also know that this is, at best, lawyerly damage control. This unsigned statement, written in the third person by an unknown party, sticks in the craw and compounds the offense. An anonymously written, terse mumble of “regret” for unspecified actions of unknown, unnamed others means exactly nothing. But it’s very telling in its own way. They’re taking the Fake News equivalent of the Fifth.

under no circumstance can the Dems allow the Whisteleaker to be interrogated under oath by the Pubs...,

Agreed. IMHO, Schiff will be thrown under the bus. He's just a tool of the intel community/deep state anyway. They'll not let the extent of their criminal activities be exposed when they can contain the fallout to this one, very expendable player. Easy narrative. Lone wolf, over-zealous, went off the rails. Just snapped. So sad. Schiff himself obliges the narrative by completely looking the part.

Thank you for taking the time to post that. Excellent observations. Yes, “In real life, EVERYONE has to make concessions small and large to make allowances to the perception of others in society.” The parallels you draw with your baseball caps are spot on.

You are a good, wise parent. Your post puts the lie to the panderings and grovelings of politicians whose concerns are only for themselves and not the children, who are merely props in the power grab.

Had to look that one up. So I have a new goal today: use retromingent in a conversation. Casually, you know? While keeping a straight face. Some days, you just gotta be good to yourself.

You’re welcome. It’s not definitive proof that yesterday’s performance was entirely calculated theater, though. Cognitive deficits can occur for an array of reasons, and some can be rapid onset. So this year old video is instructive, but not really proof of anything.

It’s also important to recognize that cognitive issues can be episodic and situational—not always a permanent, progressive condition. It’s entirely possible that he does have some deficits brought on by the enormous stress of knowing the walls are closing in on the whole scam, the attendant sleep deprivation, etc. Add in tranquilizers and sleep meds which a dirty cop facing the witness stand might need, for example.

IMHO, Mueller’s testimony was a combination of factors: Strategic amplification of existing, temporary deficits.of
