House Judiciary Committee Brings Down The Hammer On Donald Trump

 House Judiciary Committee Brings Down The Hammer On Donald Trump | Crooks and Liars

 

The thing Donald Trump and the Republicans have feared most is finally happening: real oversight. The Democrats are not playing around and Donald Trump is terrified, if his twitter feed is any indication. The Democrats want answers and they want them from *everyone*.
Today, the House Judiciary Committee, led by the powerful Rep. Nadler, sent letters to 81 people and entities - including staff at the White House (both former and current), the Justice Department, senior Trump campaign officials, Trump Organization officials and the President's 2 sons, Uday and Qusay. Ivanka has yet to get a letter.
Here is the full list:
The response from Trump seems to have come from the new State Media Unit appointed by Trump to the White House and ex-head of Fox News Bill Shine and best friend of Sean Hannity. Currently also an active campaigner for the President as well as Fox News's highest paid celebrity. (ODT)

Wow, they aren't being accused of being African or Muslims for once just normal Australians of "doubtful origin" bikers first Australians even here before Andrew Bolt but not of his superior European roots. If Australia was the country Andrew Bolt would prefer it to be, White and European, would there be less crime? If the country practised forced assimilation and turned us all into mini Bolt's would there be less crime? Obviously, we'd have to rid ourselves of Aboriginal Culture first because the first people are also a source of criminality. What Bolt is arguing for is fundamentally racist and ethnocentric creating fear and division of the other demanding more police, more surveillance, and more mind-body control with no evidence that settler countries actually have more crime than non-settler countries. Unless of course you think Nth Korea, Saudi Arabia,. Models of perfect states according to Andrew Bolt. He claims the past was better and demands that progress is back to the future. Yes, it's real history without preachers like Bolt and a media like Murdoch's today was better and would be today. (ODT)

PAYWALL
Richter recognizes as a defence lawyer he must always defend his client as best he can or step aside. He's done that. However, his explanation just makes him one of the crowds of citizens entitled to have there owned opinion. As a lawyer, he should, however, consider whether it's time for him to stop practising the law. A scientist who has no faith in the scientific method ought to give up science. A priest who has no faith in God should step down from the priesthood. And Andrew Bolt  shouldn't be given the corporate resources to have opinions published in mastheads purporting to sell News(ODT)

No comments can really be made to this advertisement for yet again the National ultra- conservative flier declaring itself as News Thanks to the ABC and Independent media we still do have access to news (ODT)




HANDBALL
Handballing to Gerald Henderson is not much better than a PAYWALL.  Oh my still running guard for Peter Dutton, Tony and Abbott whose doing a Dan Andrews Red Shirt move in Warringah.  He's nowhere near as cocky as he once was that he will retain his seat so he's throwing money at it.  The Culture of the Liberal Party has retained its misogynist appendix which it has never really removed from the good old days of the Melbourne Club. Here it is Banks bashing and proving the very bullying they deny. Well, Craig Kelly threatened a Banks and was never assaulted but got what he wanted. The point being made and obviously with substance ignores the fact appointments aren't merit based and don't hold priority over and above the boys club culture that still exists.
When Bolt posts these long posts, it's for a reason, and if you merely trace his blog history, it's a longwinded denial, a token effort of trying to alter our reality by boring people into a belief he has something to say. But that's Bolt his nature and job to convince your wrong and not that he's right. He does it on climate change, the Stolen Children, Muslims, and so many other topics that have as a result turned people off Murdoch media whose print is haemorrhaging and Sky not doing what it was hoped that it would be full Fox News. As it is in the US Trump media. Currently it's a big fail here.
However, what this post does show is the Liberal Party isn't a happy one. It's not a constructive one either but a total shambles, and that has been largely on going since Tony Abbott decided he wasn't going to leave. Division with a focus on disruption has been his on-going game of politics rather than what he and the party are paid to do for the nation. The evidence is found in the escalated debt twice as much as there was before. The lies, still in place, that were the opposite of what was promised by Abbott 6 years ago about no cuts.  The poverty of infrastructure and the failed NBN, a Frankenstein that doesn't work and those meritorious men still there ready to fuck the country over yet again for their personal gain.
