Kushner's secret push to sell F-35 jets to UAE causes frustration among US agencies and lawmakers

https://edition.cnn.com/2020/08/20/politics/kushner-uae-israel-f-35-fighter-jet/index.html

A secret push by President Donald Trump's senior adviser Jared Kushner to sell advanced arms -- including F-35 stealth fighter jets -- to the United Arab Emirates has caused confusion and frustration among agencies and congressional committees that would normally be involved in such a sale but have been left in the dark.

Kushner is supporting the administration's discussions with the UAE about the potential advanced arms sale, which have been led by the NSC Senior Director for the Middle East, Miguel Correa, a senior administration official said.
The tight hold on details about these discussions has created confusion across the US government, two State Department officials and multiple congressional aides tell CNN. Trump said the potential sale was "under review" during a press conference on Wednesday. He also said the Emirates have the funds to pay for the military hardware.

I remember back when Trump said he totally would release his tax forms, there were just weird legal stuff with a supposed IRS audit preventing him from doing it right away but once that got sorted out it, he'd release them. Here we are, about 4 years later, with him not only not having released them, but fighting tooth and nail to conceal them.

Though I wouldn't be surprised if the big scoop isn't that Trump did anything criminal or shady, but that it would show he's not as rich as he claims he is.

Brennan interviewed in Durham probe, told he’s not a ‘target,' aide claims

https://www.foxnews.com/politics/brennan-interviewed-in-durham-probe-told-hes-not-a-target-in-russia-probe-review-aide-claims

John Brennan was interviewed Friday by U.S. Attorney John Durham as part of the review of any misconduct related to the origins of the Russia probe, but the former CIA director was assured he’s not a target in the investigation, a Brennan spokesman said.

“Earlier today Brennan was informed by Mr. Durham that he is not a subject or a target of a criminal investigation and that he is only a witness to events that are under review,” said Nick Shapiro, a Brennan spokesman. “The interview was conducted at CIA headquarters and lasted eight hours.”


Nearly 2 months to the election date, we are still waiting for the 'Obamagate' that will put Obama and his officials in Guatanamo prison for life.

We officials who served during the administrations of Presidents Ronald Reagan, George H.W. Bush, George W. Bush, and/or Donald Trump, or as Republican Members of Congress.

We are profoundly concerned about the course of our nation under the leadership of Donald Trump. Through his actions and his rhetoric, Trump has demonstrated that he lacks the character and competence to lead this nation and has engaged in corrupt behavior that renders him unfit to serve as President.

For the following reasons, we have concluded that Donald Trump has failed our country and that Vice President Joe Biden should be elected the next President of the United States.

​Donald Trump has gravely damaged America’s role as a world leader. Trump has disgraced America’s global reputation and undermined our nation’s moral and diplomatic influence. He has called NATO “obsolete,” branded Europe a “foe,” mocked the leaders of America’s closest friends, and threatened to terminate longstanding US alliances. Other global leaders, friends and foes alike, view him as unreliable, unstable, and unworthy of respect.

​Donald Trump has shown that he is unfit to lead during a national crisis. Instead of rallying the American people and the world to confront the coronavirus, Trump has spent the past half year spreading misinformation, undermining public health experts, attacking state and local officials, and wallowing in self-pity. He has demonstrated far greater concern about the fate of his reelection than the health of the American people.

Donald Trump has solicited foreign influence and undermined confidence in our presidential elections. Trump publicly asked Russian president Vladimir Putin to assist his 2016 campaign, called on Chinese president Xi Jinping to “start an investigation” into his current political opponent, and pressured the president of Ukraine to act against his opponent. Citing exaggerated claims of voter fraud, he has challenged the integrity of this year’s election, even suggesting that it be postponed.

Donald Trump has aligned himself with dictators and failed to stand up for American values. Trump has regularly praised the actions of dictators and human rights abusers. He proclaimed his “love” and “great respect” for North Korean strongman Kim Jong Un, endorsed “brilliant leader” Xi Jinping’s move to serve as China’s president for life, repeatedly sided with Vladimir Putin against our own intelligence community, and pronounced himself a “big fan” of Turkish president Recep Erdogan despite his crackdown on democracy.

Donald Trump has disparaged our armed forces, intelligence agencies, and diplomats. Trump has attacked Gold Star families, scoffed at American prisoners of war, interfered in the military justice system, and embroiled our military in domestic politics. He has ridiculed US intelligence agencies and falsely branded our nation’s diplomats as the “deep state.”

Donald Trump has undermined the rule of law. Trump has compromised the independence of the Department of Justice, repeatedly attacked federal judges, and punished government officials who have sought to uphold the law. To protect himself from accountability, he has fired officials who launched investigations or testified against him, threatened whistleblowers, dangled pardons as incentives to stay silent, and blocked prison time for a political crony convicted of lying on his behalf. He has impugned journalists investigating his misconduct and has repeatedly denounced the press as the “enemy of the people.”

Donald Trump has dishonored the office of the presidency. Trump engages in childish name-calling, mocks the disabled, belittles women, persistently lies, peddles baseless conspiracy theories, and continually embarrasses Americans in the eyes of the world.

Donald Trump has divided our nation and preached a dark and pessimistic view of America. Trump consistently seeks to incite political, racial, and ethnic divisions, weakening our nation and delighting our adversaries. In contrast to Reagan’s vision of America as a “shining city on a hill,” Trump speaks of “American carnage,” pits Americans against each other, and stokes fears that “angry mobs” and “anarchists” are destroying our country.

Donald Trump has attacked and vilified immigrants to our country. Trump routinely denigrates immigrants and inflames prejudices as he seeks support for his reelection. Despite America’s legacy as a nation of immigrants, he has demonized Americans who come from other countries, even telling members of Congress whose families immigrated to the United States to “go back” to the “crime-infested places” from which they came.

Donald Trump has imperiled America’s security by mismanaging his national security team. Trump has dismissed or replaced — often by tweet — the secretaries of State, Defense, and Homeland Security, the Attorney General, the Directors of National Intelligence and the FBI, three National Security Advisors, and other senior officials in critical national security positions, many because they refused to cover for his misdeeds or demonstrate sufficient personal loyalty.

While we – like all Americans – had hoped that Donald Trump would govern wisely, he has disappointed millions of voters who put their faith in him and has demonstrated that he is dangerously unfit to serve another term.

In contrast, we believe Joe Biden has the character, experience, and temperament to lead this nation. We believe he will restore the dignity of the presidency, bring Americans together, reassert America’s role as a global leader, and inspire our nation to live up to its ideals.

While some of us hold policy positions that differ from those of Joe Biden and his party, the time to debate those policy differences will come later. For now, it is imperative that we stop Trump’s assault on our nation’s values and institutions and reinstate the moral foundations of our democracy.

To that end, we are firmly convinced that it is in the best interest of our nation that Vice President Joe Biden be elected as the next President of the United States, and we will vote for him.

Obama n officials won't go to prison. They committed no crimes.
Kevin Clinesmith only lied to a court that Carter Page was not a CIA informant. Come-on thats nothing, just spying on Trump . Its really nothing. Real crimes are by the likes Flynn and Stone .
Or how dare Trump try to get company in Ukraine laundering EU n American aid to Hunter Biden get investigated? Democrats dont commit such crimes and should not be investigated.
Even twitter knows that. Creative
Destruction Media posted an audio of Joe Biden talking to Ukr President Poroshenko over the prosecutor investigating Burisma getting to resign for that. Twitter just suspended CDM account. How dare investigate Joe dementia and family.

in the scheme.
Domenick DeMuro, a Democratic ward

plea deal that he had "fraudulently
stuffed the ballot box by literally
standing in a voting booth and voting
over and over, as fast as he could,
while he thought the coast was clear,"

of money to rig elections over several
years.
New Jersey mail-in ballot scheme

West Virginia mail carrier nabbed in
mail-in ballot scheme
A mail carrier in Pendleton County,
W.V., recently admitted to
investigators that he altered mail-in
voting ballot documents. The U.S.
Attorney's Office of the Northern
District of West Virginia said in a press
release in June that it was charging
Thomas Cooper, a worker with the U.S.
Postal Service, with "attempted
election fraud."
An affidavit supplied by that office to
Just the News states the Pendleton
County Clerk received several absentee
mail-in ballot requests "in which the
voter’s party-ballot request appeared
to have been altered by use of a black-
ink pen." On five of the requests, "it

Illinois let non-citizens register to vote
in blunder
In January, Illinois Secretary of State
Jesse White disclosed in a letter to the
Legislature that a “programming
error” in a signature pad at driver
services facilities led to 574 non-U.S.
citizens accidentally being registered
as voters. At least one, and perhaps as
many as 15, non-citizens may have
voted in the 2018 election. White’s
office says the problem has been fixed.
“We view it as a significant problem,”
Matt Dietrich of the Illinois State Board
Of Elections said at the time.
Alabama Absentee Fraud
In 2019, former Gordon, Ala., Mayor
Elbert Melton was convicted
of absentee ballot fraud in a mayoral
race he won by just 16 votes.
Melton was sentenced recently to one
year in prison and two years of
probation after his conviction on
charges of absentee ballot fraud and
second-degree theft of property.

Double voting in Arizona
Last month, Randy Allen Jumper
pleaded guilty in Arizona to attempting
