"Collusion against Trump" timeline

Sharyl Attkisson  "It's easy to find timelines that detail Trump-Russia collusion developments. Here are links to two of them I recommend:
"On the other side, evidence has emerged that makes it clear there were organized efforts to collude against candidate Donald Trump--and then President Trump. For example:
  • Anti-Russian Ukrainians allegedly helped coordinate and execute a campaign against Trump in partnership with the Democratic National Committee and news reporters.
  • A Yemen-born ex-British spy reportedly delivered political opposition research against Trump to reporters, Sen. John McCain, and the FBI; the latter of which used the material--in part--to obtain wiretaps against one or more Trump-related associates.
  • There were orchestrated leaks of anti-Trump information and allegations to the press, including by ex-FBI Director James Comey.
  • The U.S. intel community allegedly engaged in questionable surveillance practices and politially-motivated "unmaskings" of U.S. citizens, including Trump officials.
  • Alleged conflicts of interests have surfaced regarding FBI officials who cleared Hillary Clinton for mishandling classified information and who investigated Trump's alleged Russia ties.
"But it's not so easy to find a timeline pertinent to the investigations into these events.

Highlights of the News

Don Surber
The TRUMP PAGE@MichaelDeLauzon
President Trump is meeting with Republican Senators at The White House. Mitt Romney was not invited.
"Mitt Romney begged Donald John Trump to endorse him in 2012. The Donald did. Mittens not only failed to reciprocate but he campaigned against him in 2016. Mittens begged President Trump to endorse him in 2018 for the Senate. The president did. Mittens voted to remove him from office.
"I see Republicans are taking my advice from before there was an impeachment." . . .
Surber lists seventeen items on this subject, one of which is item 13 here:

ITEM 13Just The News reported, "The $3 trillion corona virus stimulus bill that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi released Tuesday includes  $25 billion for the United States Postal Service as well as new federal requirements that states must meet for allowing citizens to vote by mail in the November election.
"According to a roughly 1,400-page draft of the proposed corona virus stimulus legislation, the measure also includes $1 trillion in increased federal assistance to state, local, territorial and tribal governments, an additional $75 billion for corona virus testing as well as additional direct stimulus payments of $1,200 per individual and up to $6,000 for each household.
"The legislation, titled the HEROES Act, would provide $3.6 billion to expand vote by mail and ensure that "every voter can access no-excuse absentee vote-by-mail."
The story also said, "The legislation would amend the National Voter Registration Act of 1993 to 'prohibit states from requiring voter registration applicants to provide more than the last four digits of their social security numbers.'"
Why not implement Voting By Tombstone and be done with the pretense of fair elections?

The Democrats try to kill the economy, while Trump tries to save it

Andrea Widburg



. . . "Here are a few simple suggestions for getting the economy back fast:
"End all lockdowns now that we've achieved the initially stated goal of flattening the curve.
"Abolish most state and federal regulations.
"Stop most occupational licensing, except for jobs where consumers are incapable of doing market research.  Consumers can figure out if a flower-arranger or hair-braider is good and they won't be hurt if he's not.  It's different when it comes to jobs most consumers lack the data to understand (e.g., brain surgeons or structural engineers).
"Temporarily stop payroll taxes and social security taxes.
"Cut taxes, especially corporate taxes, which are, in any event, always passed on to consumers as costs.
"Make unemployment benefits a bit less appealing.  We don't have to echo the Victorian-era poor houses, which were hellish places to discourage sloth, but there is a happy medium between keeping people from sinking and enticing them away from work." . . .

Trump Call to Putin Raises Russia’s Hopes of End to Costly Oil War

http://www.terrellaftermath.com/
Putin and Trump Monday agreed that “current oil prices aren’t in the interests of our countries,” Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Tuesday, declining to give any details on what they might do to change the situation.
Bloomberg  "U.S. President Donald Trump’s bid to end the oil war between Russia and Saudi Arabia is breeding cautious hopes in Moscow of a possible way out of the damaging stand-off, potentially reversing some of the collapse in crude prices.
"The fact that it was Trump who placed the call to Vladimir Putin Monday, reversing his earlier stance welcoming the drop in oil prices, was seen in Moscow as a positive sign, according to three people familiar with the matter.
"Trump’s move to appeal for Russian help in stopping the oil rout could allow Putin to appear in a stronger position even if he needs to make some concessions, according to Andrey Kortunov, director of the Kremlin-founded Russian International Affairs Council. “The Kremlin views the call itself as a kind of diplomatic victory,” he said." . . .

Black men protected most by Trump reforms to Obama-Biden campus sexual assault rules, experts say

"Jones cited a report from Center for Prosecutor Integrity, a nonprofit group that fights the “over-criminalization” of sexual activities. The report argues there are “parallels between the treatment of Black men accused of rape during the infamous Jim Crow period, and the adjudication of sexual assault cases in the current era.' ”

Just The News   "Critics say black men were disproportionately hit by Obama-Biden campus sexual assault rules denying due process and are cheering the Trump administration's reversal of those policies.
"On Wednesday, the Department of Education released new Title IX regulations that codify the obligation of schools to investigate claims of sexual assault and harassment. Previous rules under the Obama administration laid the groundwork for what exists today on many campuses: byzantine sexual misconduct disciplinary systems that investigate and punish all manner of sex-related behavior — from sexually suggestive jokes to drunken couplings to forcible rape. Critics say these extra-judicial systems often abandon the presumption of innocence and stack the deck against accused students, denying them basic due process. 
" 'Once again, the Trump administration is righting a wrong perpetrated by Joe Biden, who as Vice President spearheaded a Title IX initiative that attempted to overhaul the assumptions on which our legal system is built and undermined the ability of the accused, usually men and often men of color, to get a fair hearing," Andrew Clark, Rapid Response Director for the Trump campaign, wrote in a press statement. "Black men were disproportionately hurt by Biden’s campus sexual assault policy."

Biden’s Proposal to Woo Black Voters Falls Short  . . . " But upon examination, Biden’s proposal has no substance, misses the point, and offers nothing but the same failed liberal policies empirically known to destabilize the black community while avoiding our biggest concerns." . . .

  • First, Biden’s proposal ignores the role illegal immigration has had on disadvantaged black Americans.
  • Secondly, prosperity for black Americans is contingent on prosperity for all Americans, and Biden’s plan to raise taxes will likely kill prosperity across the board.
  • Third, this plan just reeks of, well, Joe Biden.

Silence of the Bushes: Where was George W. Bush when Republicans needed him earlier this year?

The American Spectator
Particularly given that, as Hegseth noted, Bush had nothing to say about the most partisan, stupid impeachment process in American history.
"By some of the reporting from the legacy media, you wouldn’t think there was anything wrong when, in a three-minute video released to Twitter Saturday, former president George W. Bush called for unity and not partisan politics in the face of the COVID-19/ChiCom/Wuhan virus.
“ 'In the final analysis, we are not partisan combatants. We are human beings, equally vulnerable and equally wonderful in the sight of God,” said Bush in the video. “We rise or fall together, and we are determined to rise.”
"That didn’t work on conservatives at all. Fox News host Pete Hegseth voiced what many were thinking. “Oh, by the way,” Hegseth said, “I appreciate the message from former President Bush, but where was he during impeachment calling for putting partisanship aside?”  (Emphasis mine, TD)
"That statement was amplified when, Sunday, President Trump quoted it in a tweet.
"And now Trump is the bad guy.
"Well, so be it. Trump is always the bad guy no matter what he does.
"And the fact of the matter is that George W. Bush has enjoyed his position over the past four years as the patron saint of the Never Trump movement, without much apparent consequence from Republicans, who are a lot more united behind Trump than they were behind W, particularly after his betrayals on things like amnesty for illegals and Medicare expansions authored by Ted Kennedy." . . .

. . . "Trump’s style might have its own blemishes, but one thing he will consistently do is defend himself from all comers. That’s a form of Republican politics that was long overdue, even if it sows discord the legacy media doesn’t like. At least he’ll go down fighting — the Bushes, who’ll break bread with all kinds of nefarious types in pursuit of whatever it is they’re trying to achieve, just go down.
"Trump’s approach is more effective. Let’s hear fewer “play nice” admonitions from the Bush China Foundation and its pals."

"The Barack H. Obama Freeway in Los Angeles got a hilarious makeover by a group of Trump-supporting street artists.

Wayne Dupree "This funny makeover comes on the heels of Obama being fingered as a “player” in the Michael Flynn takedown."
"The group added a much more apropos sign to the freeway.
"It reads:

"Along with a hilarious pic of Obama wearing a pair of shades."

Kimmel Caught On Live TV Airing Misleading Video To Bash VP Pence, Gets Torched

"Still, the political and Hollywood left fell for Kimmel’s deception and attacked Pence."
Mad World News  "Jimmy Kimmel duped the American people with a “misleading” video edit of Vice-President Mike Pence. After an eagle-eyed reporter found the original clip of the event, Kimmel was exposed as a liar and panderer who is out to manipulate Americans into believing the Trump administration is doing a bad job. Poor Jimmy got torched in ways he never saw coming. You’ll love this." . . .


"ABC’s Left-wing late-night host Jimmy Kimmel is getting torched for airing a deceptively edited video implying that Vice President Mike Pence was faking his recent effort to help a health care facility.
“ 'In addition to social media backlash, journalists at NBC News and Buzzfeed News called out Kimmel for putting out ‘misleading’ and ‘selective’ video, adding that the original C-SPAN footage disproves his claim,” Breitbart reports. 
"Vice President Pence was seen on Thursday delivering boxes of personal protection equipment to a healthcare facility in Alexandria, Virginia. At the end of the version that aired on ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel Live!, the vice president is heard saying, “Well, can I carry the empty ones? Just for the camera?”
"Kimmel then chimed in: “Mike Pence pretending to carry empty boxes of PPE’s into a hospital is the perfect metaphor for who he is and what he’s doing — a big box of nothing delivering another box of nothing.”
"But the longer C-SPAN version of the video tells a different story than the one Kimmel was spinning. In the original footage, Pence appears to make his remark as a joke before closing a van door and leaving the empty boxes for someone else to carry.
"NBC News investigative reporter Emmanuelle Saliba tweeted: “I went back to the original @cspan footage and sounds like @VP was making a joke about the empty boxes. He doesn’t carry those last boxes. He shuts the van doors and turns to speak CEO of @fedresources.' ”  . . .

The Chronicles of Biden


Kamala Harris Now Being Touted as Top Choice for Biden VP
"There has been a ton of speculation about who Joe Biden will choose as a running mate. "He narrowed it down a bit during the last Democratic debate by plainly stating that he would choose a woman.
"Since then, most people agreed that the short list included four people.
"Biden would likely choose Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), Senator Amy Klobuchar (D-MN), failed 2018 Georgia governor candidate Stacey Abrams, or Senator Kamala Harris (D-CA).
"At this point, it’s looking more and more like Kamala Harris.
"Christopher Cadelago and Natasha Korecki write at Politico:" . .

MSNBC Founder Says Biden 'Not Ready for a Prime-Time Election Season' Against Trump 
. . . "If Rogers and other Democrats are waiting for Biden to “articulate clearly and crispy,” they should throw in the towel now. His malapropisms aren’t going to improve as the election goes along nor will his deteriorating mental state.
"In the end, Biden will beat himself with little help from Trump."
Wow: Joe Biden’s Latest Answer on Whether to Believe Him or Tara Reade Is a Garbled, Incoherent Mess  "Biden’s answer literally made no sense:" . . .

Clinton Crony Turned ‘Serious Journalist’ Lets Joe Biden Call Tara Reade A Liar On National Television  . . . "Remember, this “journalist” called Bill Clinton’s predatory behavior a bunch of “bimbo eruptions”… and helped quash them.
"How do we take this guy as a serious news anchor?" . . .
"An actual journalist would ask:
If he’s calling Tara Reade a liar
Why Joe doesn’t “believe ALL women” when they come forward
What makes a woman’s accusation “credible”
Why he flip-flopped on the standard that all women have an “essence of truth” when they make an accusation of sexual assault
If he should be held to the ridiculous Title IX standard that the Obama administration imposed on colleges
Why he won’t release all of his political records
What he’s hiding in his political records

Joe Biden’s Awful No Good Very Bad Week at Legal Insurrection
"Joe Biden is having a very rough time with his presidential campaign.

Joy Behar: Anyone Who Still Supports Trump Needs to Ask Themselves If They Are Racist

Julio Rosas "The View" host Joy Behar ranted against President Trump after he told an Asian-American reporter to "ask China" about the global death toll from the Wuhan coronavirus in response to a question she had asked him during a press conference. 
"You have said many times that the U.S. Is doing far better than any other country when it comes to testing. Why does that matter? Why is it global competition to you if every day Americans are still losing their lives and we are still seeing more cases every day?" CBS White House correspondent Weijia Jiang asked.
"Well, they’re losing their lives everywhere in the world and maybe that’s a question you should ask China. Don’t ask me. Ask China that question, okay. When you asked them that question, you make it a very unusual answer," Trump replied.
"Sir, why are you saying that to me specifically?" Jiang followed up.
"I'm not saying it specifically to anybody. I’m saying that to anyone who would ask a nasty question like that," Trump fired back. . . .  Hear the melodious voice of Behar for yourself

Behar had been ratcheting up panic over COVID-19. She also spread misinformation about President Donald Trump’s response to the coronavirus.  . . . "Fox News reports on Thursday Joy-less was back at it. “Joy Behar panned President Trump’s response to the coronavirus on Thursday, likening him to the slow-witted movie character Forrest Gump,” they report. 
“Don’t you think that this is a good time for him to resign?” Behar asked. “I do not feel any confidence with this guy. He has been incompetent from the giddy-up.”  . . .
Rebecca Diserio, Opinion Columnist:
Now, poor Joy will be self-quarantining without her TV platform to trash Trump. While no one wishes her ill-will, there is a type of justice to her absence. She’s done enough damage by spreading misinformation and causing low information voters to believe the president is doing nothing in the face of COVID-19. No one is going to miss her lies, and thankfully it’s one less voice causing panic on TV.

Soros and Italy: Is Coronavirus Paving The Way For Dictatorial Powers?

Dr. Ashraf Ramelah | Voice of the Copts


     "For years I have focused on the cruel and needless suffering of the Christian Copts of Egypt. Religiously inspired laws and the dictates of a regime governing the Islamic State has always been the enemy of the Egyptian Copts. Long ago a barbaric Islamic army invaded and occupied the Pharaoh’s land, for centuries ruling with severity the native Christians. Islam ruled with barbarity and deception.
      "Is the rest of the world seeing a modern-day version of this right now? There seems to be a rule by deception and the top-down dictates that stem from it — the same formula. The World Health Organization (WHO) along with its agents who head nation-states and acting as official authority over a “new disease”, force us into charts and graphs and experts to lock us down under house arrest, distance us from each other and muzzle our mouths with masks. Like the fierce Islamic warriors who cut out the tongues of the native Copts of the mid-7th century, dissent is silenced. Our current warlords are world-wide authorities riding a pandemic high, most likely one they created.
     "Just like our unfortunate friends across the world in Egypt our sacrifice seems not as much for the health and welfare of mankind as it is to succumb to the control of a certain ruling class. Bio-weapon or not, manmade or natural, the Covid-19 and its vultures have swept down and made the best of the very controversial data for a power grab. Like the useful Shariah, the “facts” are given and the solution is provided. Let us be grateful.
     "By imposing harsh measures that contradict science experts and lead to deterioration of health and limit our God-given rights and freedoms, the Western warlords have gotten us to beg for our punishment so the “curve can be flattened.” We enter their program and wait, watch and listen for the next dreaded word spoken from a podium." . . .

Soros Sees Big Opportunities After Coronavirus Pandemic  . . . "In fact the investor is practically drooling over the chance to remake society following the pandemic saying there is no way back to the globalized economy that preceded it. According to Soros, that is the only thing that is certain, everything else is up for grabs.
"He is also concerned about the rise of China, the fate of the United States, and the survival of the European Union."Soros told Project Syndicate on Monday: “Even before the pandemic hit, I realized that we were in a revolutionary moment where what would be impossible or even inconceivable in normal times had become not only possible, but probably absolutely necessary,……And then came Covid-19.”
"RT reports: Acknowledging the “unprecedented event that probably has never occurred in this combination…really endangers the survival of our civilization,” the philanthropist warned we will not go back to where we were when the pandemic started.' ” . . .

Will There Be an Obamagate Reckoning? You Betcha!  "Spygate has a new name under the trending Twitter hashtag #ObamaGate. It is being revealed to the public in a slow but systematic fashion, a treasonous plot to undermine a presidential election and subsequent presidency. When that failed, the plot twisted to destroying a duly elected president through leaks, innuendo, and outright lies." . . .

Grassley also pressed President Obama on the treasure trove of evidence to emerge since the grand collapse of the Russiagate conspiracies. Several new inspector general reports detail abuse of power within the administration and the completion of the Mueller probe that found not one person on the Trump campaign, let alone the president, was operating as a Russian agent.
Barack Obama says there is no precedent for anyone getting away with perjury. He forgot about his buddy Bill Clinton.

Trump's #Obamagate tweets promise the beginning of the end for Obama
. . . "On Saturday, it appears that Trump dropped that other shoe, for that's when he retweeted Jesse Watters's comprehensive breakdown of the Obama team's wrongdoing, in reliance upon a slew of newly released documents from the House Intelligence Committee: . . ."
Also on Monday, news broke that Richard Grenell, the interim director of National Intelligence and one of the most pivotal people in the search for truth, was able to have declassified a list of Obama officials who were part of illegally unmasking General Flynn.  Between this news and Trump's "Obamagate" tweets, if you don't have popcorn, you might want to buy some.  The upcoming political show is about to get exciting.
Barack Obama: The creeper hanging around the arson fires  . . . "There was a time when only the most conspiracy-minded wackos might wonder what the guy knew or what kind of pictures he had to get himself sacked like that. But Mr. Obama and his shameless henchmen at the most powerful levers of the federal government have forced the wildest conspiracies into the mainstream.
"Who, after all, would have ever predicted that an outgoing president would launch a sprawling espionage campaign to spy against a political enemy running for the presidency? At the spear-point of that fraudulent, dishonest and undemocratic operation was Michael Flynn." . . .
Remember the good old days when the outgoing Clinton administration vandalized the White House as they left? They ripped off all the “W” keys from White House computer keyboards, in a slap at incoming President George W. Bush. As with everything he touched, Mr. Obama took such pedestrian partisan punking and weaponized it beyond comprehension.
