And remember she was the talking head/originator of the narrative that Benghazi was the spontaneous result of a YouTube video...
Reading between the lines, I would say that they all knew they were screwed when Trump was elected and were trying to figure out how to blur the edges on what they had done and what kind of narrative to put out.

The sad thing sock, is that if they had kept their heads down and kept quiet instead of launching a Russian collaboration investigation, they would be ok and most likely having a long career in government.

The left never ever gives up, and pulling things back from their clutches is always messy. No matter how solid the proof, they will throw a lot of smoke and H&I fires to keep the average American convinced that everyone is equally to blame......

My impression is that they have thrown their entire playbook at this mess and can't get any traction on alternate narratives.
Such is the bothersome nature of the Internet, if you said it, sent it by email, or posted it to a website, it will come back to bite you in the butt.
I think they are gone through the table of contents, the index, and the bibliography on their playbook. Given as how silent Cummings is these days and how completely obviously disingenuous Shiffless is, they are now at the squirrel stage, hoping for anything to throw out there to divert attention.
Hence, all of the colossal stupidity by the media over the Olympics and anything else they can find.
Porter is a victim of this. I know he's a serial spouse abuser, but were it not for the desperation of the media to find anything to throw out there, he would have never surfaced.
Have you noticed how the Russian Collusion narrative, Flynn and Porter suddenly don't seem to be in the news as much?
I have to hand it to you guys, my fellow Rantburgers, you called it. As soon as this Russian collusion/Trump dossier came up, a lot of us said that the Democrats will regret investigating it. With the Republicans in control of both houses, how on earth did they think the Republican chairs of the Intel committees would let this skate on by???

I don't know this. Has it been adjudicated in a court of law? Were any police reports or professional investigations filed? I have an ex-wife, who attempted to fake the same photos, etc, against me. Luckily I found out and it stopped.
He's been convicted and punished in the media, then his job. The mob moves on to Kelly, who was always the target. Who knew WhoTF Rob Porter was before this?

[PJ] The official portraits of the Obamas were unveiled today to much buzz and criticism. The artist who painted Barack Obama's portrait is Kehinde Wiley, a well-known, far-left gay painter whose work is racially charged. Anyone with eyes can see Wiley uses race as his main subject. The New York Times pontificated endlessly about his edgy and important work highlighting injustice.
"He redresses the absence of nonwhite faces in museum masterpieces, 'using the power of images to remedy the historical invisibility of black men and women,' as Eugenie Tsai, the curator of the Brooklyn Museum show, observes in the accompanying catalog," the Times wrote.
Wiley's shtick appears to be taking famous paintings and recreating them with black people in order to represent blacks in Western masterpieces. (This, of course, begs the question of whether Wiley thinks white people are underrepresented in Asian art or in African art where very few white people are depicted.) His version of "Judith Beheading Holofernes" is raising eyebrows on social media.

An insolent man of Mongolia,
Possessed by a cute melancholia,
Would give us the finger,
Then, grinning, would linger
Till covered in P. quinquefolia.
Sabo. Heh. Or Dubya. He's probably pretty good by now.

#SPOD Ignoring for the moment, all the questions about "O's" origins, one has to wonder if "O's" election was rigged back in 2008 in light of all the rigging that went on with Hildo.

First impressions of Obammy's pitcher:
1) Is that Clint Eastwood's chair he is siting on?
2) the floral background would be right at home as a Dorothy and Toto backdrop, "Toto, I don't think we're in Kansas anymore."

As I recall, the JFK and Bill Clinton portraits were also non-classic in style. The Bill Clinton pixelated face is a bit of a horror; the Obama is merely insipid and sentimental. And executed at a good high school student level, but that's a separate issue. The Obamas wanted artists about whom there is a buzz, particularly in the African-American community, and that's exactly what they got.
The head of the nation’s largest Jewish civil rights organization called it "extremely disturbing" that three Democratic congressmen, including the vice-chair of the Democratic National Committee (DNC), attended a private dinner with Iranian President Hassan Rouhani and Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan.
"Based on what we know, its extremely disturbing that Dem reps or members of any political group would attend a session hosted by hatemongers," Anti-Defamation League CEO Jonathan Greenblatt said Monday.

Disturbing but not suprising. An old photo popped up showing Obama chumming it up with Farrakhan before he became Potus. Alan Dershowitz, in an interview said had he known this, he would not have voted for Obama. I wonder how many other Jewish people are beginning to have buyer's remorse with both Obama and Hillary?
[Daily Caller] A Harvard law professor and member of the anti-Trump "Resistance" floated the false rumor Monday that a source for the unverified Steele dossier was killed in a plane crash in Russia over the weekend.
Laurence Tribe claimed on Twitter that Sergei Millian, a Belarus-born businessman alleged to be a dossier source, was killed Sunday when a Saratov Airlines plane crashed near Moscow. All 71 passengers died.
"Among those killed in the tragic plane crash yesterday: Sergei Millian, a Papadopoulis friend who had emailed Kushner and is said to be behind one of the most salacious claims in the dossier on Trump’s involvement with Russia," wrote Tribe, who has been described as Barack Obama’s legal mentor from the former president’s days at Harvard Law School.

Just watched American Made with Tom Cruise on a flight back from Central America... getting bored with TC, but had a pretty creative final sequence where he politely asks strangers to take their conversations away from his car when he starts it. Wonder if some spy vs spy craftwork explains this event where the cause of the crash is always painfully obvious- gravity.
[PowderedWigSociety] A new name in the greatest criminal conspiracy in the history of American politics, namely the conspiracy by liberal Democrats to frame and destroy President Trump with the 35-page lie we now know as the Trump dossier, is now being mentioned, but investigators want to keep his name as hush-hush as possible, obviously for his own protection and to maintain as much secrecy as possible in the investigation of the Obamagate scandal.
Bill Preistap is the Director of the FBI Counterintelligence Division and Peter Strzok’s boss. Multiple sources are now corroborating that Preistap has flipped and is fully cooperating with investigators in the Obamagate scandal.
Preistap was certainly a central figure in the acquisition of the Trump dossier, using it to obtain a FISA warrant to wiretap the Trump campaign even though the document and its source (Sidney Blumenthal) had no credibility whatsoever. Clearly, Preistap knows every detail of the conspiracy to frame President Trump.
Comey threw Preistap under the bus in his testimony before Congress. When asked why he didn’t notify Congress of the surveillance of candidate Trump as required by law, Comey said that he kept the Trump investigation secret because Priestap advised him to.
No wonder Preistap flipped! Continues and vid from this weekend’s past "Justice With Judge Jeanine" segment regarding is embedded.

Yeah we'll see. Nothing ever seems to come with these. Remember the Congress spying scandal with the Amwan brothers and Debbie Schultz? That was going to ruin people, and then just disappeared. I'll believe this when people start going to prison.

The Awan brothers, interprising lads who operated freely from their lairs in Woodbridge and Falls Church Virginia for years.
Strange no one in the intelligence community ever took notice. Very strange.

I doubt the Awan monitoring and IT storage effort was limited to DNC clients. The real money would have resided elsewhere. The Clinton's were probably witting of the effort, hence the Beest's remote server farm and haversack full of selectors, nyms, and passwords.

If Priestap is flipped, it is game set match for the gang of twelve and their plot to unseat the president.
I still say the end game was to install Zero as a president for life. Hillary was to be a proxy for his continued reign...as would any democrat president to follow.

Mr. Obama disliked the job of president, which is hard work done in front of critical eyes. But he would have enjoyed the perks of a Supreme Court justice, happily leaving the opinion writing to others — who would also have been happy he modestly held back his pen.
A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
