Britain
Polls: Despite mixed opinions on Brexit, 93% of UK Jews won’t vote for Labour, UK Jewish Labour group won’t canvass for them
[IsraelTimes] Though not all Jewish Brits are crazy about ‘Leave’ proponent PM Johnson, accusations of anti-Semitism leading vast majority to avoid opposition leader Jeremy Corbyn at any cost.

If the polls are to be believed, Britain’s Prime Minister, Boris Johnson, is heading for a comfortable win when the country votes in December’s general election.

UK Jewish Labour group won’t campaign for Corbyn-led party in December elections

Jewish Labour Movement says its members will only canvass for ‘exceptional’ candidates, but it shouldn’t be seen as sign of support for Conservative, Liberal Democrat parties.
That’s ok. A vote denied is just as good as a vote obtained for the other side.
The honorary president of the Jewish Labour Movement, Dame Louise Ellman, and former parliamentary chair, Luciana Berger, both left Labour this year, amid accusations of a failure by the party and its leadership to deal with anti-Semitism in its ranks.

Hillary Clinton Laughs Off Question About Killing Jeffrey Epstein
[The Federalist] Trevor Noah, host of Comedy Central’s "The Daily Show" asked 2016 Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton about the conspiracies swirling around the death of billionaire accused sex-trafficker Jeffrey Epstein.

"Hillary, I have to ask you a question that has been plaguing me for a while. How did you kill Jeffrey Epstein?" Noah asked Thursday. "Because you’re not in power, but you have all the power. I really need to understand how you do what you do, because you seem to be behind everything nefarious, and yet you do not use it to become president. What is the game plan?

As Clinton began to answer, Noah cut her off, asking how she felt as the "boogeyman of the right."

"Well, it’s a constant surprise to me because the things they say, and now, of course, it’s on steroids with being online, are so ridiculous, beyond any imagination that I could have," Clinton responded. "Yet they are so persistent in putting forth these crazy ideas and theories. Honestly, I don’t know what I ever did to get them so upset."

LTC Who Worked With Schiff Witness Vindman Says He Verbally Reprimanded Him For ‘Bashing America'
[WD.com] LTC Hickman said Vindman was clearly a partisan Democrat who was more "activist" than a bipartisan military official. LTC Hickman goes on to say that after several complaints from other officials who were deeply bothered by Vindman’s "anti-American" tone, he verbally reprimanded him for his actions.
LTC(Ret) Jim Hickman foto at right.
Lieutenant Colonel Jim Hickman is very familiar with Adam Schiff’s star witness Alexander Vindman. The two worked together back when Vindman was a Major.

LTC Hickman shared an incident that occurred between the two men during a combined US-Russian exercise called "Atlas Vision 12" in Grafenwoher, GE.

The incident that occurred between the two men was described by LTC Hickman in a Twitter thread he shared on his timeline on October 31st.

He begins the thread by explaining the mission and why the two men were there. He then goes on to describe a disturbing string of events involving then Major Vindman, where he bashed America to Russian and American subordinates, and heavily promoted a "globalist" type agenda.

LTC Hickman said Vindman was clearly a partisan Democrat who was more "activist" than a bipartisan military official. LTC Hickman goes on to say that after several complaints from other officials who were deeply bothered by Vindman’s "anti-American" tone, he verbally reprimanded him for his actions.

LTC Hickman says he wrote the thread because he personally has witnessed Mr. Vindman’s partisan bias behavior and wanted people to know that he’s not the "All American" decorated "hero" that the media and Democrats are painting him out to be.

He’s more of an "activist" than anything else, according to LTC Hickman’s direct observations and interactions with Mr. Vindman.

"I know LTC Alex Vindman from a Combined US-Russian exercise called Atlas Vision 12 in Grafenwoher, GE. He worked w/the Russian Embassy & I was assigned to the JMTC (Joint..."“…Multinational Training Command), w/in USAREUR (US Army Europe). He worked coordination w/the Russian 15th Peacekeeping Brigade, & I was in charge of all Simulations planning, as well as assisting the USAREUR Lead Planner as the Senior Military Planner.

#1  He worked w/the Russian Embassy & I was assigned to the JMTC (Joint..."“…Multinational Training Command), w/in USAREUR (US Army Europe). He worked coordination w/the Russian 15th Peacekeeping Brigade

Thanks for the info LTC Hickman. I believe we now know who was pulling the strings on this fellow. But we also know nothing happened as a result of your admonishment concerning his Anti-American rants at Graf 7 years ago. My guess is, nothing will come of his voluntary testimony in front of the never-Trump dems.

Similarly, nothing came of MAJ Nadal Hasan's Anti-American rants... until he went rogue-nutter at Fort Hood. Nothing happened to the Tsarnaev bros. until the Boston Marathon bombing (even though they were known Haji radicals and travelers to Chechnya). Nothing happened about Clinton's 30,000 classified emails on a 'homebrew' server. Nothing happened about the Paki Awan family, DNC IT employees in Woodbridge, VA who...also ran a used car business (frequently used espionage cover-for-action) in Falls Church, VA.

Lastly, seems there will be no further inquiries into the numerous high-ranking foreign visitors to Jeffrey Epstein’s private Caribbean hideaway nor questions concerning his considerable unexplained wealth. Again, nothing has happened, well almost nothing.

Far too many 'nothing happened' coincidences. I simply can't imagine why.

#5  Read Donald Sensing's article on LTC Vindman. He includes Jim Hickman's comments as well.

Rev Sensing's major point is that Vindman disobeyed a direct order. He should be court martialed for that alone. The fact that he might have disagreed with Trump is irrelevant.

Of course, he will not be court martialed, because "optics".

#6  Vindman should not be trying to screw with his Commander-in-Chief's policy or decisions. He should not be bad-mouthing America to Russians in joint exercises. Sounds like Vindman is a Obama, Brennan, Obama recruit. He ought to be shitcanned out of the military.

Michelle Obama: ‘Many’ Around the World Feel Barack Is ‘Their President’
[BREITBART] Former first lady Michelle Obama said Tuesday that her husband, former President Barack Obama
teachable moment...
, could have built his presidential library anywhere in the world because many feel he is "their president."

Obama, speaking at the Obama Foundation Summit at the Illinois Institute of Technology, explained reliably Democrat Chicago, aka The Windy City or Mobtown
...home of Al Capone, the Chicago Black Sox, a succession of Daleys, Barak Obama, and Rahm Emmanuel...
’s Jackson Park was selected as the site for the Obama Presidential Center because it was close to the couple’s former home and situated near her South Side childhood home.

"There’s power in the selection of Jackson Park," the former first lady said. "Barack and I don’t do things incidentally. There’s a strategy."

Obama then argued the library could have even been built outside of the United States.

"Barack’s presidential library could have been anywhere in the world, because there are so many people who feel like he is their president," she stated.

"New York wanted it. Hawaii wants it. Because it’s also an economic engine," she added.

#2  Death rattle of the Global Grifter Party.

Can anyone imagine someone saying if the Eisenhower Library, or the Kennedy or Reagan Libraries, "[Ike][Jack][Ron]’s presidential library could have been anywhere in the world, because there are so many people who feel like he is their president..."

Does Big Mike have the faintest conception why a majority of Americans -- even millions of those those who voted for his empty-suit husband-- conclude by 2016 that he wasn't interested in being their president?

That this shallow, vain, ignorant little man was more interested in posturing and preening as a "global citizen" than championing or asserting American interests?

What a despicable fool.

Beto "The Micksican" O'Rourke ends 2020 presidential bid
EpicFail on a State/National basis. Just go away. Forever
[10 News] Former Texas congressman Beto O'Rourke announced Friday that he is ending his 2020 presidential campaign, hours ahead of a marquee dinner in Iowa.

O'Rourke told supporters in an email that he will not run for office next year. That means he will also not become a Senate candidate in Texas, despite pleas from some Democrats for him to take on Republican Sen. John Cornyn.

O'Rourke led an all-staff call Friday afternoon, informing aides of his decision to drop out -- a choice that came as a surprise to many of his staff in early-voting states.

O'Rourke's poor fundraising played a key role in his decision to exit the presidential race, aides familiar with his decision to drop out said.

His top advisers had concluded that his current fundraising pace meant he'd have to slash spending -- likely meaning major staff cuts -- in order to pay for the advertising he'd need to get the small boost he needed to qualify for the debate stage in November. O'Rourke raised just $4.5 million in 2019's third quarter and ended it with just $3 million cash on hand.

Shitshow, cont'd: SchifferBlower Blows Smoke, Won't Spill ('No further discussion' between lawyers & Schiff)
[WashingtonExaminer] The whistleblower whose complaint launched impeachment proceedings against President Trump is unlikely to testify to Congress, as talks have ceased between his legal team and committee leaders.

House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff, who has overseen depositions in Democrats' impeachment proceeding, was initially eager for the whistleblower to testify before citing concern about the person being identified.

A source familiar with the discussions told the Washington Examiner that talks halted over potential testimony from the whistleblower and there is no discussion of testimony from a second whistleblower, who supported the first's claims.

On Thursday, the House passed a resolution establishing a framework for Trump impeachment proceedings, belatedly granting Republicans the ability to subpoena witnesses, but only if Schiff and fellow Democrats on the Intelligence Committee agree.

Mark Zaid, who along with Andrew Bakaj is an attorney for both the original whistleblower and the second whistleblower, told the Washington Examiner the legal team was willing to work with lawmakers so long as anonymity is ensured. “We remain committed to cooperating with any congressional oversight committee's requests so long as it properly protects and ensures the anonymity of our clients,” Zaid said.

On Wednesday, Zaid and Bakaj declined to confirm or deny in a statement to the Washington Examiner that Eric Ciaramella, 33, a career CIA analyst and former Ukraine director on the NSC, was the whistleblower after a report by RealClearInvestigations.

#2  The Jay Sekulow Live! radio show Friday November 1 reviewed the findings of the realclearinvestigations research into the so called whistleblowers in the Ukranian quid pro quo accusations.

The realclearinvestigations findings, if true, shows that the Adam Schiff House Intelligence Committee investigation into the Ukranian quid pro quo accusation is every bit as corrupt as the Russian collusion narrative and investigation that has been going on since the Trump upset election.

From what I understand it appears the Ukrainian whistleblower allegations against Trump was a setup by Adam Schiff and the deep state on the Left
to investigate, impugn and to impeach Trump before the nation so the Left can win and get back into power in the 2020 election.

There was never any evidence Trump colluded with Russia to win the election in 2016. But the truth never stops the deep state from creating false narratives; it was just the best narrative the Left had against Trump to delegitimize his presidency and his agenda so the Left could deny the president any success till he could be unseated and the Left can get back into power and fulfill the Obama agenda of fundamental change in America of bringing America down to what it really is, a bad country, by undermining it throughout the world.

Adam Schiff should be impeached for the fraud he has perpetrated against the presidency and against the American people. Schiff has no moral standing despite how he has been portrayed by the media as a straight shooter since the Trump investigations began.
It is my hope that the the Durham investigation into the Russia collusion hoax exposes who the real bad actors are and that it would go all the way to the person at the top, Sotero, so the people can see the media narrative that there was no corruption during the Obama administration is totally false.

I pray enough people will figure out this truth before the November 2020 election so no Democrat president can continue to tear down this country like that deep state is trying to do right now.

Once Trump is removed, God forbid, the Left can pursue its other hoaxes of
global warming, save the world environmentalism and social justice projects that undermine real justice and truth.

I am surprised Rantburg has not yet posted an article on the realclearinvestigations findings
that show the whistleblower Ukrainian phone call incident was a setup by Schiff and the same Left deep state actors of the Russian collusion hoax
trying to further undermine Trump's presidency.

#11  Impeachment is political. If the House is partisan enough, he could be indicted for walking across the street. The Senate has to convict for removal, precedent says he gets due process there - EVEN if the House debases their authority by denying it
