i24news is my 11:00 PM Central station on Mediacom.
Covering Texas primary elections; Cohn is big news in Israel; and tariffs;
Covering Cohn leaving; a loving trade war; world commentators don't understand trump; wonder why;
Taxi drivers shutting down Athens Greece; typing as quick as I can.

Consider how much Trump and Netanyahu are the same.
I'm catching up with the World right now with i24news. Michelle Makori is pretty easy on the eyes, and ears.

Guests do like to slam Obama, as with the current GOP Congressman.
Haley does this with all of her speeches, whether to the UN or AIPAC yesterday.
Netanyahu today at AIPAC--haven't seen it covered here;
Netanyahu has the right message on Iran; he's the wrong messenger; a flamethrower; about to be indicted;

The Iran nuclear deal is front and center on the World stage
Syria--Syria--Syria; Russia's role in slaughtering Syrian civilians, and now forcing geographical cleansing;
And then there's Turkey's role in Syria; this is critical political science, your Master's;

And then there's Israel's fear of Iran in Syria; North Korea helping Syria on biochemical weapons; and getting cash;
i24news covers our political elections better than we do; less time;
enough for now ...

Wait there's a world outside the Trump WH???? Thanks for reminding me Nimby!
 
Wait there's a world outside the Trump WH???? Thanks for reminding me Nimby!

South America still not being discussed enough.
On clearcut: Israel's role in Africa right now as part of AIPAC; it's growing; South Africa potential;
Africa Project; Israel's tech; solar panels;

Israel and India developing very close relations.

Contrast that with how well Pakistan and India have always had a loving relationship.
This still shoot at each other from a glacier to keep it going;
And all 3 have nukes, though Israel's have never been confirmed;

poisoned on a British street; both fighting for their lives ...
(double agent--suspected Kremlin involvement)

So what is it like letting Trump live rent free up there in that vacant cavity you call a head?

Does he get free Wifi?
Room service?

I bet you it even has a bidet.

  • RussianRepublicans claim they found no collusion.
  • Trump crazy PA Speech

This spread shows the 2016 vote for the current PA-18 in play tomorrow.
Clinton is in the 1st and 4th columns; trump in the 2nd and 5th; total in the middle.
370,497 is well above the National average for a CD in 2016.
Table needs better presentation.

-----Allegheny (pt.) 73,926--79,648--159,021--46.49%--50.09%
--------Greene (pt.) --2,287---5,868----8,383--27.28%--70.00%
---Washington (pt.) 28,319--50,045---81,384--34.80%--61.49%
Westmoreland (pt.) 38,173--79,541--121,709--31.36%--65.35%

Here's a link to the POTUS vote by CD for the last 3 elections.
It's been updated to show new maps in a dozen or so states, including PA.

I have a feeling we are gonna need two posts today:

  • Rex Tillerson fired on twitter
  • Mike Pompeo in
  • John McEntee Trump personal aide, under DHS investigation for serious financial crimes
  • Trump hires Katrina Pierson
  • Qataris opted not to give info on Kushner, secret meetings to Mueller
  • Ivanka Trump Is Still Collecting $1.5 Million A Year From Trump Organization
  • Trump Jr Interviewed by Chocolate Bunny (I'm not making that up)
  • Trump tweets about no collusion and questions UK findings of Russian killings


It's only 11 AM. Still to come. Stormy bits, and PA election results.
 
3/13 Part 2:

It took half an hour to sum up this list. So I hope I got everything that happened today. Am I going to have to start adding the time and date to these things now???

  • Steve Goldstein, the undersecretary of public affairs at the State Department fired for saying Tillerson fired via twitter
  • Gina Haspel is now CIA Director
  • Roger Stone found to have known about stolen emails months before everybody else. Was in contact with Wikileaks.
  • Kellyanne Conway took private plane trips on taxpayer dime
  • 2nd Republican Trey Gowdy splits w/GOP intel Committee on Russian Findings
  • Trump had some "interesting things" to say in CA. Space force & See-through walls (nerd.)
  • Trump officially backs off Mexico paying for wall in tweet.
  • Trump considers more staff shakeup soon
  • Stormy Daniels is filming 60 mins interview to be aired this Sunday (date unconfirmed)
  • Even if he loses tonight in PA18 Lamb wins (blue wave)

The list today took three tweets and I had to use even more shorthand just to fit it all in.

Sunday night into Monday:

  • Trump's lovely 21 presidential tweetstorm!!!!
  • Mueller focuses in on Jared Kushner
  • Trump lies about WH Correspondents Dinner

None of those even rise to the level of a decent kerfuffle, much less a scandal.

How many scandals are really going on in 2018?

These folks have yet to be prosecuted for laws, specific federal statutes, known to be broken:

1. Comey
2. Mc Cabe
3. Rosenstein
4. Yates
5. Strozx
6. Huma
7. Jarret
8. Clapper
9. Koskinen
10. Steele
11. Rice
12. Hillary
13. Slenderman

There are many others

Get back to us when you have anything close to a similar list with even half the gravity of treasonous acts that we already know have transpired.
 
The current Trump Firings/Resignations/Departures* list:

  • Yates
  • Flynn
  • Bharara
  • Walsh
  • Comey
  • Dubke
  • Shaub
  • McFarland
  • Corralo
  • Spicer
  • Short
  • Harvey
  • Priebus
  • Mooch
  • Cohen-Watnick
  • Higgins
  • Bannon
  • Gorka
  • Sifakis
  • Icahn
  • Price
  • Powell
  • Manigault
  • Dearborn
  • Katz
  • Winfree
  • McCabe
  • Porter
  • Sorensen
  • Raffel
  • Hicks

Yeah, so?

But that slenderman had gotten up off his lazy butt and run his administration in anywhere near a similarly positive and productive manner. As a true American would, not like a reincarnation of his socialist, misguided anti-colonialist foreigner father.

Then he, too, might have gone down in history as a great president, with lasting accomplishments under his belt, not the traitorous subversive that, due to democrat/ media / academia collusion, found himself somehow in our White House...the asterisk, the first black American president.

Yano?

Some of those people have more honor and sense of country in their thumb than the entire Trump administration combined. There is simply no comparison. You just list a bunch of names and expect me to take your word at it that they committed treason??? When you put your head in the sand with regards to a similar list that I made which included examples well before the facts of their firings???? You have no argument my friend.

First off, I didnt say all of them committed treason, though most in that enumeration did. I see you have not been keeping up, the lefty bubble is about to be pricked. We will see by this time next year which of us is closer to being dead on... and if the thumbs of which you speak are squeaky clean patriotic.

You folks ignore crimes where they happen and chase off after mega illusions instead. The smooth talking true patriot knocking prestidigitators on your side sure got your number.
