Lazy Man's Guide to the Last 150 Years in America

1861 -- a bogus mercenary "conflict" begins on our shores, and the perps pass it off on us as a "Civil War" even though no war was ever declared by our Congress and no Peace Treaties ever signed.  It's a con and a set up for more fraud games.

1863 -- Lincoln declares the Northern Federal States of States bankrupt, but neglects to fully disclose and inform people about the actual identity and nature of these business entities. A false presumption gets started that our States are bankrupt, and that our assets are up for grabs, when in fact our States were never involved and not eligible for bankruptcy protection.

1865 - The Territorial "Rump" Congress sets up bogus quasi-civilian, quasi-military courts and ten new Southern military "districts" run by "District Court Judges" appointed by military commanders.  This is the beginning of the Slow Creep of the Talmudic Court System insinuating itself where it should never be.

Grassley says Kavanaugh vote will take place Monday if accuser doesn't agree tonight to testify

 

The Senate Judiciary Committee chairman said his panel will vote Monday on Brett Kavanaugh's Supreme Court nomination if there's no agreement on whether and how the woman accusing him of a long-ago sexual assault will tell her story to lawmakers.

Republican Iowa Sen. Chuck Grassley said he's giving attorneys for Christine Blasey Ford until 10 p.m. Friday to reach an accord.

Grassley said in a statement that he has not agreed to Ford's proposal that she testify after Kavanaugh.
He also said he'll decide who conducts the questioning. That indicates he's rejected Ford's request that the committee's all-male members not use an outside counsel, likely a woman, to question Ford.

Comment on Kavanaugh's Accuser

 

She can't remember the year, she can't remember how many people were in the room, she's changed her story, and she sat on this for decades - only to have it appear, oh-so-conveniently - at just the right time.

When nobody, including people who she says were at that party, remembers this, when she told nobody, it smells like either a set up or a book-deal  quest for SJW dopamine-applause seeking.

And according to Alan Dershowitz, she's setting conditions that nobody has ever set before.

We used to have this thing called "Innocent until proven guilty"; that's passes, don't you know?

"Drag $100 and a post-scandal, ghost-written book offer through a Leftist college campus, and you'll never know what you find."

Where were you #metoo hypocrites when Bill Clinton was accused of rape?  Where are you now when Keith Ellison IS accused of domestic violence?  The difference between "R" and "D".

Rod Rosenstein Wanted 25th Amendment Ouster for Trump, Secret Oval Office Recordings

 

A new report claims Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein offered to secretly tape President Donald Trump inside the Oval Office and wanted to “recruit” top administration officials to oust the president with a vote among Cabinet leaders.

The New York Times writes that Rosenstein shared these plans with “other Justice Department and FBI officials,” all of whom relayed their accounts to the paper anonymously.

During a series of July 2017 meetings with fellow Justice Department and FBI officials, Rosenstein reportedly made the explosive suggestion of recording the president, and while the plot never materialized, he reportedly told then-FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe that he believed it was possible to convince Attorney General Jeff Sessions and then-Homeland Security Secretary John Kelly to later invoke the 25th Amendment.

Timeline: Democrats’ Changing Demands for Christine Blasey Ford’s Testimony

 

 Current Update

Friday, September 21, 2018: The Senate Judiciary Committee has yet to respond to Ford’s lawyer’s demands.

CNN reports that the Republican possible counter-offer to Ford includes a Wednesday hearing; Ford will testify first, followed by Kavanaugh; and questions will be asked by an independent counsel.
Update: NBC News also reports on the GOP’s counter-offer to Ford, including the new detail that only two witnesses will be called and the Committee will “pick a lawyer for question” Ford.
Politico reports that the Senate Judiciary Committee is giving Ford the end of the day Friday to accept this counter-offer.

A Republican senator on the Committee told Politico, “We’ll do [the hearing] on Wednesday, we expect [to hear] the accuser before the accused, and we do intend to have the counsel do the questioning.”

The source also said the Committee agreed to Ford’s request to have only one camera at the hearing and for Kavanaugh not to be in the same room with her.

Republican Committee members discussed this on a Friday morning conference call, according to Politico, “[a]nd barring new revelations, the party plans to vote on Kavanaugh’s nomination in Judiciary Committee shortly after hearing [Ford’s] testimony next week.”

A senior Democratic Senate aide told Politico that the GOP’s offer of a Wednesday hearing date is one of several “nonstarters with Democrats and Ford’s camp” because they “had made clear that [Ford] could not be in the capital to testify before Thursday.”

The Democratic aide accused the GOP of “making this disingenuous counter-offer knowing she won’t be here.”

“Ford does not want to fly from her California home to Washington,” a Republican senator told Politico, and therefore “she may need to drive across the country to make the hearing. Ford has reportedly told friends she is uncomfortable in confined spaces, indicating a physical difficulty in making the trip by plane.”

Update: The 5:00 p.m. deadline for Ford and her lawyers to respond to the GOP’s counter-offer has now expire. No word yet on whether they have accepted.

Update: The Washington Post reports that the deadline has now been extended to 10:00 p.m.

Mitch McConnell:‘Judge Kavanaugh Will Be on the United States Supreme Court’

 

We’re going to plow right through it and do our jobs

Sen. McConnell predicted that the Senate will soon confirm President Donald Trump’sSupreme Court nominee on Friday despite the accusations laid against Kavanaugh. Christine Blasey Ford, a California psychology professor, has accused Kavanaugh of sexually assaulting her when they were both in high school in the 1980s.

Ford alleges that in 1982, 17-year-old Kavanaugh and a friend pulled Ford into a room during a high school party in suburban Maryland, forced her onto a bed, and groped her over her clothing before she was able to escape.

McConnell continues to back Kavanaugh, saying that “President Trump has nominated a stunningly successful individual.”

Brennan and Clapper Accused of Hacking John Roberts To Blackmail Him

 

Obama administration intelligence officials John Brennan and James Clapper must answer to the allegations that they blackmailed Supreme Court Justice John Roberts to get his vote for Obamacare in 2012.

Attorneys for an NSA and CIA whistleblower in D.C. circuit court are trying to see to that.
Roberts, who reportedly was investigated at one time for illegally adopting his sons, betrayed the Republican base that initially celebrated his Bush appointment when he confirmed the supposed constitutionality of Obamacare during Obama’s re-election campaign.

NC: "Due to the hurricane, unlawfully possessed firearms and ammunition are now doubly-unlawful,”

 

The Utter Futility of Gun Control

“So, due to the hurricane, unlawfully possessed firearms and ammunition are now doubly-unlawful,” asked one person on the Leland Facebook page. “Brilliant.”

In a last-minute decision, the North Carolina town Leland reversed their temporary ban on the “transportation or possession, or the sale or purchase of any dangerous weapon or substance, while off one’s own premises.”

The weapons ban was supposed to go into effect for the duration of hurricane Florence. Although initial projections have varied, weather experts expect hurricane Florence to strike land as a Category 2 storm, with winds over 100 miles per hour.

Ford’s ridiculous demands & Sen. Cory Booker admitted to sexually assaulting high school friend in 1992

Via David

Citing “sources,” Fox News’ Shannon Bream reports on the demands Christine Blasey Ford and her legal team are making as a condition for her testifying about her allegations against Brett Kavanaugh:

Ford team wants NO questions from lawyers, only Qs from Committee members, #Kavanaugh cannot be in the room, Kavanaugh must testify FIRST – more to come …

These demands are absurd.
