Volker Says He Warned Giuliani About Peddling Biden Conspiracy Theory

Volker Says He Warned Giuliani About Peddling Biden Conspiracy Theory:  Former U.S. special envoy to Ukraine Kurt Volker, who resigned from his position at the State Department last week, testified that he warned President Trump’s attorney Rudy Giuliani that the information he was being provided about former Vice President Joe Biden and his son being involved in corruption, was bogus and had been disproven.

The fact is, way back in May, Ukraine’s prosecutor general ruled there was no evidence whatsoever that either Joe Biden or his son had broken any laws.  Of course, Giuliani and Trump could care less about getting at the truth about anything.  These two take their oaths of office about as seriously as they do their wedding vows.

Besides, what the hell does what Biden did - or didn't do - have to do with any crimes Trump and Rudy have already admitted to committing?  Wonder if anyone bothered to mention to Trump and Rudy that “deflection” is actually not considered a valid defense in legal circles?

So, we apparently have Trump and Rudy Giuliani running their own extra curricular foreign policy. What could possibly go wrong with those two in charge? Anyway, it should be quite fun to figure out how the hell the Secret Service, who’s job it is to protect former Presidents, is going to do so when if that ex-President is headed-off to federal prison?

Trump Lawyer Schoen Threatens America With Civil War

Trump Lawyer Schoen Threatens America With Civil War:  In a fiery speech, arguing that impeachment would disenfranchise Donald Trump’s supporters, defense lawyer David Schoen is being harshly criticized for his thinly veiled threat - warning that impeaching the former president could very well result in even more violence from Donald Trump’s easily enraged base. So, if I understand Schoen’s argument correctly, it sounds as if he’s implying that “if you bring Trump to trial, then that angry, violent mob who attacked the Capitol, wanting to hang Vice President Pence and kill various members of Congress, might get really, really mad again - and there will be reprisals.”   You know, we’re talking stuff like ”Nice country you have here - be a damn shame if something were to happen to it!”  In other words, Schoen’s trying to incite violence, in defense of a man who’s facing trial - over inciting violence.  They don’t teach you that in law school.   Now, is it jus...

Trump Returns to Do White House Coronavirus Briefings Solo

Trump Returns to Do White House Coronavirus Briefings Solo:  Three months after he abandoned the daily virus briefings and attempted to turn the country’s attention to what he described as the “great American comeback,” President Trump took the lectern in the White House briefing room alone on Tuesday, free to say whatever he wanted without any distractions from the usual bunch “sciencey nerds” behind him. And, in a rare moment of candor, Trump reluctantly admitted that the spread of the coronavirus will likely get worse before it gets better, and that people should probably wear masks.  Well said Mr President!  The fact is, most of us are already rather optimistic things will begin to get better - sometime after November 3rd. Ironically, now that Trump is finally admitting the virus is spreading fast and that people should wear masks, you’d think most of those armed militia thugs, whom Trump egged on to to out and “liberate” those Democratic run states from t...

Former Trump National Security Advisor Warns ‘Deep State’ Putting COVID Vaccine in Salad Dressing

Former Trump National Security Adviser Michael Flynn, who was fired and then prosecuted for lying to the FBI about his contacts with Russia before being ultimately pardoned by Trump, is now sliding further into the QAnon conspiracy world, telling the hosts of an online show dedicated to COVID and election fraud conspiracies - that he has heard the “Deep State” is attempting to “sneak coronavirus vaccine into salad dressing.” Now, I have no idea where Gen. Flynn got this information, but my guess is it was probably a text from Mike Lindell or Rudy Giuliani, alerting him to the “hidden dangers of salad dressing.”  Or, it could have been Nicki Minaj for all I know.  After all, she does have another cousin who has a friend in Timbuktu.  Word on the street has it the “Deep State” will initially start with “Ranch Dressing” to vaccinate the cowboys, then move on to “Russian Dressing,” to get the rest of Trump’s supporters. Anyway, I hate to rain on Gen. Flynn’s conspiracy the...
