10 billion in aid to South of the border to keep them from immigrating North.

Wall off the table.

Will Beto be our next President? Or AOC?
This was the one issue above all else that got Trump elected. He should have stuck to his guns on this and shut the government down. We could be in trouble in 2 years.

AOC can't be president this next election. Unfortunately its because she's too young and not because there is a minimum IQ requirement.
Beto/AOC ticket...

Beto has a shot. Losing to Cruz was the best thing for him.

Re: Today in Trump's new term as President

Memo is out. House.gov server hosting it is throwing errors, probably due to high traffic.

http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/house ... le/2647937

These points, if true, blow my mind. I still haven't seen the original due to the server issues at house.gov.
* The Steele dossier formed an essential part of the initial and all three renewal FISA applications against Carter Page.

* Andrew McCabe confirmed that no FISA warrant would have been sought from the FISA Court without the Steele dossier information.

* The political origins of the Steele dossier were known to senior DOJ and FBI officials, but excluded from the FISA applications.

* DOJ official Bruce Ohr met with Steele beginning in the summer of 2016 and relayed to DOJ information about Steele's bias. Steele told Ohr that he, Steele, was desperate that Donald Trump not get elected president and was passionate about him not becoming president.

Newly revealed texts between Trump-bashing FBI officials Peter Strzok and Lisa Page show the “fix was in” during Hillary Clinton's email probe in 2016, Republican lawmakers say.
I feel like I've heard this phrase "the fix is in" before... Where was that...

Re: Today in Trump's new term as President

Test messages found: http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2018/01 ... icial.html
Federal law enforcement officials told Fox News on Wednesday that thousands of FBI cellphones were affected by the technical glitch that apparently prevented those Strzok and Page messages from being stored or uploaded into the bureau’s archive system.
In a letter sent to congressional committees, Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz said his office “succeeded in using forensic tools to recover text messages from FBI devices, including text messages between Mr. Strzok and Ms. Page that were sent or received between December 14, 2016 and May 17, 2017.”
Right.

This is what makes me think the fix was in way early. Left them in debt with no other good ways out. Along comes Hildebeast to bail them out, and make them a deal they couldn't refuse.

Re: Today in Trump's new term as President

DNC was bought and paid for:

http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2017/11 ... inton.html
The fix was in after all.

Last year's presidential primary between Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders was rigged by the Democratic National Committee - just as Sanders' supporters suspected - to hand the nomination to Clinton, according to a bombshell claim by Donna Brazile. The onetime Clinton confidante, CNN commentator and former interim party boss made the explosive claim Thursday while touting a new book that could sever her ties to Team Clinton for good.
https://www.politico.com/magazine/story ... 016-215774
The Saturday morning after the convention in July, I called Gary Gensler, the chief financial officer of Hillary’s campaign. He wasted no words. He told me the Democratic Party was broke and $2 million in debt.

“What?” I screamed. “I am an officer of the party and they’ve been telling us everything is fine and they were raising money with no problems.”

That wasn’t true, he said. Officials from Hillary’s campaign had taken a look at the DNC’s books. Obama left the party $24 million in debt—$15 million in bank debt and more than $8 million owed to vendors after the 2012 campaign—and had been paying that off very slowly. Obama’s campaign was not scheduled to pay it off until 2016. Hillary for America (the campaign) and the Hillary Victory Fund (its joint fundraising vehicle with the DNC) had taken care of 80 percent of the remaining debt in 2016, about $10 million, and had placed the party on an allowance.

This fix was in for a long time.

Re: Today in Trump's new term as President

Trump Dossier paid for and initiated by Hillary Campaign and DNC, furthered by FBI
http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/byron ... le/2638540
But knowing that the Clinton campaign, the DNC, and Perkins Coie supported the dossier is not the end of the story. The most important next step is the FBI.

Sometime in October 2016 — that is, at the height of the presidential campaign — Christopher Steele, the foreign agent hired by Fusion GPS to compile the Trump dossier, approached the FBI with information he had gleaned during the project. According to a February report in the Washington Post, Steele "reached an agreement with the FBI a few weeks before the election for the bureau to pay him to continue his work."
http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2017/10 ... ssier.html
In the midst of a court case that threatened to reveal the dossier’s funding, it emerged overnight that political consulting firm Fusion GPS was retained last year by Marc E. Elias, an attorney representing the DNC and the Clinton campaign. The firm then hired former British intelligence officer Christopher Steele to write the now-infamous dossier.
Holder DOJ steered settlement funds away from conservative groups
http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2017/10 ... -says.html
“Concerns include: a) not allowing Citi to pick a statewide intermediary like the Pacific Legal Foundation (does conservative property-rights legal services),” the official, whose name is redacted in the email, wrote under the title of “Acting Senior Counselor for Access to Justice.”
Pay no attention to this though, it's all baloney - http://thehill.com/policy/national-secu ... ts-baloney

Re: Today in Trump's new term as President

But then, there are the little things that wouldn't even be thought of if the republicans hadn't gained control of both houses:
On Thursday the House Appropriations Committee passed a Fiscal Year 2018 Commerce, Justice, Science Appropriations bill that ties ATF funding to the roll-back of certain gun regulations.

It's small, doesn't make up for no ACA repeal or HPA passage, but that counts as at least a small plus in my book.

Re: Today in Trump's new term as President

So, now we're going to try and full repeal with a 2 year grace period to fix it. OK, lets go. I think this was passed in 2015, so it should be easy, right?
