Mitt Romney, The Dog on the Roof of the Democrat Caravan of Crazies

Canada Free Press  "Mitt Romney has positioned himself as the Dog on the Roof of the Caravan of Crazies, including Wobbly Woofer Joe Biden,  running for DNC nomination in the 2020 Election Campaign.
“ 'Mitt Romney proved once again this weekend that the only reason he ran for US Senate was to trash President Trump for the next six years. (Gateway Pundit, June 8, 2019).
“In 2018 President Trump generously endorsed Mitt Romney for US Senator from Utah.”
"Dog Catcher Gateway Pundit points out that since that time Mitt has been nothing but a pain in the tush, taking swipes at Trump whenever and wherever possible.
"Just about everyone takes swipes at Trump for publicity,  ratings and career boosts,  including Political Opportunist Supremo Mitt Romney.
"Shades of Seamus, The abused Romney dog:
“ 'During a 1983 family vacation, Mitt Romney drove 12 hours with his dog on top of the car in a windshield-equipped carrier. This incident became the subject of negative media attention and political attacks on Romney in both the 2008 and the 2012 presidential elections. (Wikipedia)" . . .

Ruth Bader Ginsburg: Kavanaugh ‘Boosted’ Female SCOTUS Law Clerks

Breitbart


"Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg (RBG) told a group of judges in upstate New York on Thursday that her colleague, newly-appointed Justice Brett Kavanaugh, was the reason the Supreme Court (SCOTUS) had more female law clerks this term.“Justice Kavanaugh made history by hiring a team of all-female law clerks for his staff. Thanks to his selections, the Court has this Term, for the first time ever, more women than men serving as law clerks,” Ginsburg announced on Thursday.

"Ginsburg’s statement comes several months after Kavanaugh went through a drawn-out confirmation battle to become an associate justice on the Supreme Court over accusations of sexual misconduct.
"Democrats pushed the FBI for further investigation into those allegations, but the FBI determined those allegations against Kavanaugh to be “uncorroborated.”
"During the heated set of confirmation hearings, Kavanaugh made a promise to appoint a team of all-female clerks. The New York Times reported in October 2018 that he promised to hire a team of four female Supreme Court law clerks.
"Kavanaugh testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee along with one of his accusers, California psychology professor Christine Blasey Ford, over decades-old allegations that Kavanaugh groped Ford at a high school party. Kavanaugh had repeatedly denied the allegations and Ford’s claims.
"However, nobody had been able to prove that Ford’s allegations against Kavanaugh are true because Ford kept changing her version of the story.
"Of the people she named, not one of them said they could recall what happened around that time or whether Kavanaugh and Ford were in the same room.
"Kavanaugh is considered to be one of the more conservative judges on the Supreme Court, but he has sided with more liberal justices in several rulings." . . .

Shameless Kirsten Gillibrand embarrasses herself pandering at an Iowa gay bar

Thomas Lifson "Unfortunately for the junior senator from New York, it takes more brains than she possesses to pull off unprincipled political pandering.  Over the course of her political career, Kirsten Gillibrand has demonstrated a willingness to embrace any policy or group that she thinks will work to her advantage. When she represented a rural-ish upstate New York congressional district, she was all for the Second Amendment, but when elevated to the Senate (to replace Hillary Clinton), her principles reversed themselves.
"But then again, Bill Clinton was flexible in his principles depending on political advantage and got away with it with enough voters to get re-elected as president. Gillibrand’s problem is that she isn’t bright enough to pull off the slipperiness with aplomb.
"This lack of the finesse necessary to be a good political con artist was all too evident Friday in Des Moines, when Gillibrand visited a gay bar, The Blazing Saddle. She actually went behind the bar (at least she didn’t jump on top of it, Beto-style) and appeared to be (or feigned) drunkenness." . . .


When John Dean testifies, the real Watergate analogy should be made clear

Jonathan Cohen



"The Democrats in the House are opening their post-Mueller report hearings with testimony from John Dean, the former Nixon White House Counsel, whose riveting testimony in the Watergate Hearings helped push the House of Representatives towards an impeachment probe. While Dean is the Democrats’ choice, the hearing will provide the Republicans the opportunity to show that the true similarity of the current political situation with Watergate is between the Nixon and Obama administrations. By the time all is known, the real question may be: should Trump pardon Barack Obama.
. . . 
"As the facts in the origins of the Russian collusion investigation begin to become known to more than Fox News viewers, the similarities between the activities of the Nixon White House and the Obama administration will become glaringly obvious. John Dean needs to be asked a series of questions, and, since he would be under oath, would have to answer them somewhat as I imagine below:" . . .   Read the questions here...
