DC Tom Posted August 25, 2018 Share Posted August 25, 2018 1 hour ago, LSHMEAB said: I just have a REALLY hard time buying the idea that human trafficking and child sex rings are at the core of Trump's immigration policy. They are. The current administration's immigration policy is intended - specifically - to force Congress to legislatively address the Flores Agreement, the Immigration and Naturalization Act, and the Trafficking Victims Protection Act, the combined effect of which is extraordinarily unworkable and unenforceable. The administration's "separation of families" is actually evidence of this - it "policy" only in as much as it's based in enforcement of the law as written, and meant to highlight the serious flaws in the current legal framework. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It works both ways Joe. Again, I would not use progressives to describe the group behind this, it's the centrists--the so-called deep state goes across political lines. Aaron Mate is cited in the piece, a real progressive who has continually questioned the Russia narrative, but he's also not a member of the MSM.

But he knows without a doubt because of some tweets that Trumpis not a Russian backed stooge? Ok! He makes some some good points about how easy it is for the wealthy to corruptly rig the system, but his total ignoring of the facts that raised so many eye brows about Trump and Russia he never mentions. Let Mueller do his job, if he finds no connection between Trump and Russia, fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let Mueller do his job, if he finds no connection between Trump and Russia, fine. As I've said to my wife since this started, they won't find anything substantive about Russia, but they will dig up lot of financially-related dirt. While this would probably be true of 99% of D.C., it's especially the case with Trump and his ilk. And as I've stated here before, it would be very easy to trap Trump in a perjured statement if he testified, but it won't be related to Russian interference (though there could certainly be financial connections to his real estate interests), which is essentially what happened with Clinton's BJ and Whitewater. This is why I replied to Joe that hypocrisy goes both ways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo_Gal Posted August 25, 2018 Share Posted August 25, 2018 FBI agents are privately voicing frustration that the agency and the Department of Justice have focused almost exclusively on investigations of Trump-Russia collusion while allowing probes on other major issues to die, including Hillary Clinton’s ties to the sale of U.S. uranium rights to a Russian-controlled company. “It seems that there is a pattern of investigations dying on the vine that is occurring for no other explainable reason but that senior executives both in the FBI and DOJ are choosing to allow them to die or forcing them to die,” a former senior FBI official said, according to an Aug. 23 report by investigative journalist Sara Carter. “The people actually doing the investigating – the junior agents – aren’t the ones who can make the decisions to allow the case to die. It can only be done at the very senior levels at the FBI. AKA: the seventh floor.”Who is John Huber? 7th floor at FBI called center of power in nation’s capital There's a comment about "earlier this year" but the next sentence does state 2017 for Congress (and Huber has been at it since 2017), so this may be an updated post. So, President Trump was up and tweeting this morning. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One can name each of these problems and be correct but just not complete. If you ask me about drug smuggling I will mention "the wall". If you ask me about child trafficking I will mention "the wall". Those are good reasons but not the only reasons. BTW, "the wall" is actually a physical wall combined with drones, human patrols and every other way of securing our border. Well then let's build the damn well.....as soon as Mexico pays for it.

Frankly speaking, I don't personally give a damn if Mexico pays for it or not. The estimated price tag is within our means but I'm betting that tariffs or other results of new negotiations with Mexico will insure that they pay for it while most likely letting them save face. Yes, Trump is a showman but his policies are good for our country. He's fighting to put us on a fairer footing economically with the rest of the world but faces the strongest of headwinds from the entrenched globalists in our government. He's done more for the people in this country in the last 19 months than has been done for decades. This comes from a person (me) who was always skeptical of the man and didn't personally like his MO. I may have voted for him because the alternative was worse but now will vote for him because of his effectiveness in getting the right policies implemented. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deranged Rhino Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 Reminder. Tomorrow Ohr testifies before Congress. It hasn't been in the news much, because the media by and large is ignoring Ohr's central role (and high rank in the DOJ) in the scheme. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
