Steve Hilton: Mueller probe is a political counter-revolution to overthrow Trump -- It must be defeated

Fox News  . . . "Nothing so democratic is happening in the equivalent situation here in America, as the establishment seeks to overturn the outcome of the 2016 presidential election. But how can that happen? In the U.S., the chosen path to remove President Trump from office has become the Russia probe led by Special Counsel Robert Mueller and its tabloid offshoot, the Stormy Daniels imbroglio.

"The elitists in Washington (including – frighteningly – current and former leadership in our law enforcement and security bureaucracy) are monumentally aggrieved that the people had the temerity to elect a populist outsider to the White House. And they’re not prepared to wait for the 2020 election to try to replace populist Donald Trump.

"That’s why this week I described the Mueller probe as a political counter-revolution.

"Think back to the investigation’s origins. It was set up after President Trump fired FBI Director James Comey and told NBC’s Lester Holt that it was because of the “Russia thing.”

"Yes – it was because of the “Russia thing;” not because there’s any basis to the “Russia thing” but precisely because there isn’t – and because Comey refused to say that. 


"Where did the “Russia thing” itself begin? The Hillary Clinton campaign." . . .

. . . "In the meantime, not surprisingly, the Mueller team is unable to get service or the defendants into court in the 13 indictments against Russians, the Flynn case is on the shoals, and the guilty pleas they've obtained have nothing to do with Russian collusion.  Or Donald Trump."

Media lies are the real scandal

Don Surber


"John C. Harwood at CNBC wrote a piece, "Most voters have become numb to each new Trump scandal because they don’t believe what he says anyway."


"Wrong. Most voters are numb because we no longer believe the media.



"Since Trump's election on November 8, 2016, the media has reported lie after lie after lie about him and his supporters.

“ 'A Muslim student from the University of Louisiana at Lafayette reported being attacked by two men on Wednesday morning. The victim told investigators that one wore a white Trump hat while they hit her with a metal object and shouted obscenities as she fell to the ground. University police say the suspects fled with the woman’s wallet and hijab,” NBC News reported on November 10, 2016.

"That was a lie." . . .



John McCain settles scores in his last days

He regrets choosing Palin, but she was the better candidate and certainly more of a fighter. McCain's fear of being painted as a racist seemed to take all the fight out of him, as evidenced by the video below.    Trump's comment about McCain being a POW was cheap and way out of place, but McCain should have had a face-to-face with him instead of siding with the demagogues of the left.

Thomas Lifson  . . . "This odd, unsourced paragraph written by Martin offers a clue:
 Yet many in Mr. McCain’s own party believe that, by selecting Sarah Palin as his running mate in 2008, he bears at least a small measure of blame for unleashing the forces of grievance politics and nativism within the Republican Party.
"I strongly suspect that McCain himself expressed these views to Martin, but asked not to be quoted.
"Quite clearly, McCain is part of the Republican internationalist establishment, against which Trump is fighting. I suppose it is admirable that he is sticking to his guns to the end. But there is no way that these views are less than an insult to the woman who dropped everything after being asked to be his running mate."

Naturally President Trump has been blatantly disinvited. . . . "I have no idea if President Trump would have wanted to speak at the funeral. But it might have been an opportunity for some healing in the face of the universal human condition.
"But Senator McCain is leaving this realm as he lived in it.

"I will say no more, for his cancer is serious and he is to be regarded with compassion. There will be plenty of time ahead for evaluating his legacy."
Were I President Trump, I'd endeavor to meet with McCain and seek his forgiveness face to face as well as publicly for my remarks disparaging his days as a prisoner. If McCain rejected my efforts ,as I feel he would, then it would be his responsibility. TD
