REVEALED: Chinese Govt. Killed and Imprisoned 18-20 CIA Spies After Penetrating Hillary "like with a cloth?"Clinton’s Private Server

Infidel Bloggers Alliance  "Hillary’s carelessness and criminal actions may have led to the deaths of 20 CIA operatives in China.
"The Chinese government killed or imprisoned 18 to 20 CIA operatives in China from 2010 to 2012."
"At the same time a Chinese-owned company operating in the Washington, D.C., area hacked Hillary Clinton’s private server throughout her term as secretary of state.
"The Chinese government was obtaining Hillary Clinton’s emails in real time.
Business Insider reported:
China killed or imprisoned 18 to 20 CIA sources from 2010 to 2012, hobbling U.S. spying operations in a massive intelligence breach whose origin has not been identified, the New York Times reported on Saturday.
Investigators remain divided over whether there was a spy within the Central Intelligence Agency who betrayed the sources or whether the Chinese hacked the CIA’s covert communications system, the newspaper reported, citing current and former U.S. officials.
The Chinese killed at least a dozen people providing information to the CIA from 2010 through 2012, dismantling a network that was years in the making, the newspaper reported.
One was shot and killed in front of a government building in China, three officials told the Times, saying that was designed as a message to others about working with Washington.
The breach was considered particularly damaging, with the number of assets lost rivaling those in the Soviet Union and Russia who perished after information passed to Moscow by spies Aldrich Ames and Robert Hanssen, the report said. Ames was active as a spy in the 1980s and Hanssen from 1979 to 2001.
The CIA declined to comment when asked about the Times report on Saturday.

Los Angeles votes to rename Rodeo Road to Obama Boulevard as 10th anniversary of his historic election victory approaches

UK Daily Mail


. . . "A resolution brought by state Sen. Anthony Portantino (D-La CaƱada Flintridge) to rename a portion of the 134 Freeway passed in September.
"There's a street designated as 'Obama Way' in the city of Seaside, located in Central California's Monterey Bay.
"Several California schools have also already been named after Obama, the LA Times reported. " . . .

President Donald J. Trump's Accomplishments List:

Magapill  One accomplishment voided is the renege by North Korea. Regarding that, I have to consider on the international scene that the actions of Democrats and never-Trumpers have weakened this President in the eyes of America's adversaries.
Trump's backing away from Kim may look like a bit of schadenfreude to Democrats, but it is what I feel their beloved Obama should have considered in his dealings with Iran's mullahs. The Tunnel Dweller

Gavin Newsom: I’m Bringing Single Payer To Everyone In California, Regardless Of Immigration Status


Hot Air  "Gavin Newsom is currently running for Governor in California and, barring something dramatic, he is going to win. So when he says he plans to bring single payer to California as Governor, there’s a very good chance he’ll get his shot. Today, Newsom appeared on the Pod Save America podcast where he was asked about his health care plans. Newsom made clear he wants a single paper system that is for everyone in the state regardless of immigration status.

“ 'I’d like to see if we can control our own destiny,” Newsom said. He continued, “I’m not naive about it. I did universal health care when I was Mayor [of San Francisco], fully implemented regardless of pre-existing conditions, ability to pay, and regardless of your immigration status." . . .

But then the upshot of this, as Gavin seems to know but not contemplate in this interview is...
What’s really interesting about this is that earlier in this same interview, Newsom talks about homelessness in California’s major cities including San Francisco when he was mayor. “Here’s the problem though, it’s not a static number,” Newsom says. He continues, “We started with about 7,000 people on the street; we got 12,000 people off the street…there were still close to 7,000 people on the street. We did a survey, our annual surveys. One surveyed showed that over 90% of the people on the streets weren’t from San Francisco.
“So as soon as you house 2 or 3 people this dynamic population continues to challenge mayors of cities large and small.”


Trump Has Already Won on Impeachment

Earl of Taint
Conrad Black  "Only the final descent of the Trump assassination squads to the supreme self-humiliation of the Michael Cohen-Stormy Daniels nothingburger could drag me from my sublime writing holiday to inflict myself on whatever readers there may be in August. Amid the hydrogen bomb of decrials of moral turpitude and perceived high crimes, there is no one else audible who sees the Cohen rollover as the supreme victory for the president that it is.


"The Mueller investigation that started out with such a trumpet-blast of portentous Wagnerian prophecy of impending revelations of treason, has fallen to the asininity of getting a sleazy lawyer who has pleaded guilty to a smorgasbord of criminal frauds to declare that candidate Trump told him to pay hush money to a woman he had allegedly had a sexual encounter with 10 years before the election, and that this was an illegal campaign contribution and attempt corruptly to influence the outcome of the presidential election.
"There had never been any hint of impropriety by Trump in the matter—no coercion, no payment on the night, and the best that could be done for titillation was when Stormy, a generally engaging and peppy businesswoman, though she found nothing exceptionable in the future president’s conduct, or in “his junk,” claimed to have lightly spanked him with a copy of Time that had his picture on the cover. As S&M goes, this is pretty thin gruel." . . .

Mueller is the sheriff with a pretty big posse

Couldn't all this be why the North Koreans are becoming difficult? I'm sure they, the Russians, the Iranian mullahs, along with all other America's adversaries are watching and rooting fervently for Antifa, the leftist media, and the scowling Democrats. TD

Mueller the blackmailer . . . "Mueller is a student of Lavrentiy Pavlovich Beria, the chief of the Soviet security and secret police under Stalin. Beria's boast was “Show me the man and I'll show you the crime,” meaning he could pin a crime on anyone."

How a twenty-year-old movie foretold the Mueller witch hunt  . . . "Twenty years ago, Will Smith starred in a terrific film called Enemy of the State.  It seemed a work of fiction at the time.  It was riveting for its portrayal of the government's abuse of every hi-tech tool at the ready to surveil and destroy a man's life. " . . .

Clintonite Robert Reich: Let’s Annul Trump’s Presidency  . . . "Tucker Carlson discussed this with Mark Steyn last night, suggesting that the left has nowhere left to go in words and that the next thing which could happen is a suggestion of violence. Steyn agreed, saying that the left has refused to accept the peaceful transfer of power and that it is harmful to the country." . . .

Alan Dershowitz: NY Prosecutors Pose Greater Danger to Trump Than Mueller  "On Fox and Friends Monday morning, the Harvard Law professor emeritus explained that while Trump has constitutional defenses in the federal investigation conducted by Mueller, that’s not the case in investigation currently underway at the behest of New York’s Southern District." . . .  If "Law & Order" was still producing, they would have a real leftist party with this.

Democrat love-in for John McCain another symptom of Trump Derangement Syndrome

Image by Dianny of Patriot Retort
Josh Kantrow  "This will probably get me in trouble, but the overblown tributes to John McCain are getting tiresome.  Some of the praise is being used as cover to hit President Trump, who has accomplished far more in a year and a half in public office than McCain did in thirty-six.  It is amusing how Democrats and their corrupt media allies (who despised McCain when he dared get in the way of their beloved Obama's ascension), are now elevating him to divine status.
. . . 
"McCain's 2008 campaign was a disaster.  He refused to hit Obama where he was most vulnerable: his association with terrorists like Bill Ayers, fraudsters like Tony Rezko (from whom Obama purchased his home in a shady deal), and racists like Jeremiah Wright.  He also paused his campaign during the financial crises and had a deer-in-the-headlights look about him whenever he was asked about economic policy.  Further, as much as I like many things about Sarah Palin, she was not ready for prime time – he failed to properly vet her.
"I also have a big issue with him killing the repeal of the Unaffordable Care Act (likely out of spite to President Trump) and not stepping down from the Senate when he could no longer perform his duties.
"I admire John McCain's service to his country, in Vietnam and later in politics, but hero-worshiping him for purposes of hitting President Trump is just wrong."

GOP senators looking at another chance to repeal Obamacare after McCain's death . . . "A repeal vote won't happen before the election and is doubtful in the lame duck session in December. Lawmakers are looking at 2019 as a target date for repeal legislation to come to the floor." . . .



A maverick? Hardly.  . . . "If major newspapers, neoconservative opinion makers, and 70-year-old politicians are referring to McCain as a maverick because he was one of the top Republicans to side with former President Barack Obama on key issues, then you know there is very little intellectual diversity in the nation’s capital.
"With his unfortunate and tragic death in the spotlight, the important question is: Why?" . . .

Obama's crimes went unpunished

Don Surber  "Barack Obama became president and remained unimpeached. Indeed, his administration appointed no special counsel to investigate his shady deals, his campaign finance violations, or the 36 Obama aides who owed $833,000 in back taxes as of January 12, 2012. They went unprosecuted.


"Let us start with the shady aides.

"He appointed many tax cheats to his administration. Three years into his first term, Investor's Business Daily reported, "A new report just out from the Internal Revenue Service reveals that 36 of President Obama's executive office staff owe the country $833,970 in back taxes. These people working for Mr. Fair Share [Obama] apparently haven't paid any share, let alone their fair share."

"That was 36 out of 437 White House staff members.

"Their average annual pay from taxpayers was $84,668.19.

"And they didn't pay their taxes.

"Instead of going after them, Obama's IRS went after the Tea Party-- harassing them in a manner that taxpayers had to shell out $3.5 million to cover up the Obama administration's "illegal and unwarranted scrutiny."

"No one went to jail for that illegal activity." . . .


Yet the left loves Obama and Hillary!

Flag etiquette: when to fly the flag at half-staff

Half Staff Displays  . . . "Flying the flag at half-staff is an area of flag etiquette that most people want to make sure they get right. It is also an area for which the road to error is routinely paved with good intentions. With that in mind, we offer this refresher course as the all-important intersection where knowledge meets benevolence." . . .


USA Today photo

When should the flag be flown at half-staff?  "An easy way to remember when to fly the United States flag at half-staff is to consider when the whole nation is in mourning. These periods of mourning are proclaimed either by the president of the United States, for national remembrance, or the governor of a state or territory, for local remembrance, in the event of a death of a member or former member of the federal, state or territorial government or judiciary. The heads of departments and agencies of the federal government may also order that the flag be flown at halfstaff on buildings, grounds and naval vessels under their jurisdiction." . . . 
"In the early days of our country, no regulations existed for flying the flag at half-staff and, as a result, there were many conflicting policies. But on March 1, 1954, President Dwight Eisenhower issued a proclamation on the proper times. 

"The flag should fly at half-staff for 30 days at all federal buildings, grounds, and naval vessels throughout the United States and its territories and possessions after the death of the president or a former president. It is to fly 10 days at half-staff after the death of the vice president, the chief justice or a retired chief justice of the United States Supreme Court, or the speaker of the House of Representatives. For an associate justice of the Supreme Court, a member of the Cabinet, a former vice president, the president pro tempore of the Senate, the majority leader of the Senate, the minority leader of the Senate, the majority leader of the House of Representatives, or the minority leader of the House of Representatives the flag is to be displayed at half-staff from the day of death until interment.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Praised John McCain. Then Things Got REALLY Weird.

Daily Wire  . . . "The derision went on for some 10,000 replies, though some of those were other Democrats trying to draw the friendly fire away from Ocasio-Cortez and redirect to more productive targets. Others were actually Republicans, praising Ocasio-Cortez for being a decent human being and acknowledging a significant death.

""Ocasio-Cortez, to her credit, does not appear to have apologized for her social media eulogy, even when feminist rag Jezebel droned on at her for over a thousand words, excoriating Ocasio-Cortez for lending credence to McCain's "imperialism" and his opposition to high taxes and free abortions."

Alas, poor liberal media.

96 Percent of Google Search Results for 'Trump' News Are from Liberal Media Outlets

PJ Media

          Facebook Censors Conservatives Articles, Saying They 'Look Like Spam'

"Is Google manipulating its algorithm to prioritize left-leaning news outlets in their coverage of President Trump? It sure looks that way based on recent search results for news on the president.

"Conservatives and Trump supporters have for the last several years questioned whether Google was deprioritizing conservative news sites, hiding them from users who utilize their search engine. Google has maintained that all outlets are treated fairly, but nevertheless, conservative sites have reported reduced search traffic and, in the case of Google-owned YouTube, content creators have been banned and demonetizedGoogle's high-profile firing of conservative James Damore, purportedly over his conservative political views, only reinforces the idea that Google is picking winners and losers.
"To test the premise, I performed a Google search for "Trump" using the search engine's "News" tab and analyzed the results using Sharyl Attkisson's media bias chart."
