The Morning Report 10/23/17
Good morning kids. Hope everyone had a great weekend but it's Monday again so let's get right to it. In the lead is the Clinton/Obama Uranium 1 Scandal, which the media wing of the institutional left is pulling out all the stops to embargo. For whatever reason, Deputy Dawg is awake enough to not lift Obama's gag order on a crucial FBI informant who can probably bust this thing wide open, and Rep. Ron DeSantis of Florida is raising a stink about it. Good. That said, it's not stopping Mueller from continuing his witch hunt to bring down someone, anyone, from the PDT administration and taint him and his agenda. Great piece (meaning "BP raising") about one of his underlings who goes after people like a latter-day Thomas Torquemada, only to later have the convictions overturned, but not before destroying lives and reputations in his wake.
Sherrod Brown-stain got his ass handed to him by GOP Ohio Senate hopeful Josh Mandel over calling Steve Bannon a white nationalist. He also called Jewish PDT speech writer Steven Miller the same. In further evidence that the Democrats are running on empty, Frederica "Rhinstone Cowpie" Wilson is demanding General Kelly apologize for calling her out and exposing her as a low-life empty barrel. Not to have her steal the spotlight, Max-Scene Waters said at some event or other that she was going to "take out Trump." You mean, like, for a dinner and a movie?
And instead of just quietly turing into a centerpiece for the Capitol Routnda, the despicable John McStain took a thinly veiled swipe at PDT's Vietnam deferral, while Tom Hanks opened his mouth to attack him over the phone call to the KIA soldier's widow and mostly halitosis tinged with bile was emitted. Tom, you're an actor. You say the lines you are given without bumping into the furniture. Then again, that's exactly what you did, so, meh.
Meanwhile, Jon Cornyn is proving to be a loyal McConnell stooge by blocking a conservative judicial pick and the Foster Friess, like a Chamber of Cronyism-ist is putting in big bucks to go against Steve Bannon's outsider insurgents. Just more proof that the only thing preserving the crashing and burning Democrats is the GOP-e wing of the Deep State.
Lastly of note, with North Korea and perhaps even Iran in mind, PDT has ordered the USAF's strategic bomber force to once again go on 24-hour alert. Francis Fukuyama Hardest Hit.
Anyway, links from around the world, across the nation and up your street. Have a better one and remain blessed.
