Welcome to the madness ruining the WH.

Our dear president is losing it.

Pelosi said Trump appeared "very shaken up" after the House overwhelmingly approved a resolution condemning the U.S. withdrawal from northern Syria and the abandonment of its Kurdish allies. House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.), Minority Whip Steve Scalise (R-La.), GOP Conference Chairman Liz Cheney (Wyo.) were among the 129 Republicans who crossed party lines and voted for the Democratic-drafted measure, a dramatic slap at Trump in the midst of one the most serious foreign policy crises of his presidency.

A Democratic source familiar with the conversation told Fox News that Schumer, D-N.Y., started to read the president a quote from former Defense Secretary James Mattis from Sunday: "And, in this case, if we don't keep the pressure on, then ISIS will resurge. It's absolutely a given that they will come back."

According to the source, Trump cut Schumer off and responded that Mattis was "the world’s most overrated general. You know why? He wasn’t tough enough. I captured ISIS. Mattis said it would take two years. I captured them in one month.". I thought Mr Trump employs the best people.

I never realised that the Chinese had that much influence in America, talk of the NBA and even Hollywood as a whole - all bowing to the Communists. And to add insult, Players standing for the Chinese Anthem but taking a knee for the American Anthem? Even as an Outsider that is so disgusting. Folks are now been censored for just criticising China dealings with Hong Kong. I remember Alex Jones screaming from the roof top about the Communist taking over America, and he was branded a Conspiracy theorist and crazy.

What about Ivanka Trump getting some of her patents and products from the China market?

Another photo going back to 2014. President Trump with Lev Parnas. Also a photo of Aaron Parnas (Lev's son) with Trump at Trump Tower.
There's even a group family photo with the Trump clan.

Giuliani reportedly had dined with the clients, Lev Parnas and Igor Fruman, at Trump’s hotel in Washington, D.C., hours before they were arrested waiting to board a flight abroad with one-way tickets.

President Donald Trump said Thursday that he hopes his personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani does not end up getting indicted on criminal charges.

Trump’s comment to reporters came hours after federal prosecutors in New York revealed that two of Giuliani’s clients, along with two other men, had been charged with conspiring to violate campaign finance laws barring foreign money to be used to support candidates for federal office.

Giuliani reportedly had dined with the clients, Lev Parnas and Igor Fruman, at the Trump International Hotel in Washington, D.C., on Wednesday, hours before they were arrested at Dulles International Airport in Virginia waiting to board a flight abroad with one-way tickets.

The indictment says Parnas and Fruman made illegal donations totaling $325,000 to a political action committee that supports Trump.

“I don’t know those gentlemen,” Trump told reporters Thursday.

The Miami Herald earlier this week ran an article about Parnas’ and Furman’s refusal to comply with requests for documents and testimony from House committees conducting an impeachment inquiry into Trump.

That article was illustrated with a photo showing Trump, Parnas, Furman and Giuliani standing together, smiling, at a prior event.

Parnas and Furman and the other two defendants “conspired to circumvent the federal laws against foreign influence by engaging in a scheme to funnel foreign money to candidates for federal and State office so that the defendants could buy potential influence with candidates, campaigns, and the candidates’ governments,” according to federal prosecutors in New York City.

DeSantis to return money from Giuliani associates arrested on campaign finance charges

https://www.miamiherald.com/news/politics-government/article236008728.html

Gov. Ron DeSantis will return the $50,000 he received as a contribution from two South Florida businessmen who helped President Donald Trump’s personal attorney look into his political opponents in Ukraine

Lev Parnas and Igor Fruman were arrested Wednesday night and charged with attempting to funnel foreign money into U.S. politics. The alleged scheme included straw donations in which the duo masked the source of their political contributions by sending them through a newly formed Delaware corporation.

In June of 2018, they gave DeSantis $50,000 through a company called Global Energy Producers. They made the contribution one day before Trump endorsed DeSantis for Florida governor.

“The allegations regarding Global Energy Producers to the governor’s affiliated political action committee in 2018 are troubling,” DeSantis spokeswoman Helen Ferré wrote in an email Thursday. “Therefore, Governor DeSantis is directing the political action committee to return the money to the federal government.”

This is a very serious problem for Trump, because the coverup is often bigger than the crime. Now we are learning the White House has a separate server for Trump’s foreign dealings?

From section of the whistleblower transcript:

(U)CLASSIFIED APPENDIX

(U)Supplementary classified information is provided as follows:

(U)Additional information related to Section II
According to multiple White House officials I spoke with, the transcript of the President's call with President Zelenskyy was placed into a computer system managed directly by the National Security Council (NSC) Directorate for Intelligence Programs. This is a standalone computer system reserved for codeword-level intelligence information , such as covert action. According to information I received from White House officials, some officials voiced concerns internally that this would be an abuse of the system and was not consistent with the responsibilities of the Directorate for Intelligence Programs. According to White House officials I spoke with, this was "not the first time" under this Administration that a Presidential transcript was placed into this codeword-level system solely for the purpose of protecting politically sensitive-rather than national security sensitive-information.


What some people fail to understand is the it is not Trump's job to initiate any prosecution against Joe Biden, but the CIA through the Department of Justice.

Also it is now obvious that the 'leaker(s) to the actual whistleblower is/are part of Trump's White House Staff who is/are close to him. Just listen to this clip:

You also just provided the most disjointed, rambling, repetitive, response to my post. I said the reports that the phone call had to do with Trump tying military aid to Ukraine for opposition info is just speculation that are not based on facts, even the media themselves admit that so I don't understand what this your rambling response is meant to prove

President Trump in a July phone call repeatedly pressured the president of Ukraine to investigate Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden’s son, urging Volodymyr Zelensky about eight times to work with Rudy Giuliani, his personal lawyer, on a probe, according to people familiar with the matter.

“He told him that he should work with [Giuliani] on Biden, and that people in Washington wanted to know” whether allegations were true or not, one of the people said. Trump didn’t mention a provision of foreign aid to Ukraine on the call, said this person, who didn’t believe Trump offered the Ukrainian president any quid-pro-quo for his cooperation on an investigation.

Giuliani in June and August met with top Ukrainian officials about the prospect of an investigation, he said in an interview. The Trump lawyer has suggested Biden as vice president worked to shield from investigation a Ukrainian gas company with ties to his son, Hunter Biden. A Ukrainian official earlier this year said he had no evidence of wrongdoing by Biden or his son.

When will the service chiefs be replaced.

680 undocumented immigrants are arrested in Mississippi - Trump's immigration plans are working

https://edition.cnn.com/2019/08/07/us/mississippi-immigration-raids/index.html

US immigration authorities have detained some 680 undocumented immigrants in what a federal prosecutor described as "what is believed to be the largest single state immigration enforcement operation in our nation's history."

US Attorney for the Southern District of Mississippi Mike Hurst told reporters the arrests took place at seven sites in six different cities in Mississippi on Wednesday. "Today, as a result of the hard work of these men and women in law enforcement, we've set another record," Hurst said.
Officials declined to provide details about what sites had been targeted, citing what they said was an ongoing criminal investigation. CNN affiliates reported the raids occurred at food-processing plants throughout the state.
The arrests came as a result of administrative and criminal search warrants executed by special agents from Homeland Security Investigations, Hurst said.
"Today, through the hard work of these men and women, we are once again becoming a nation of laws," he said.

Profile of the shooter

kophschmerzenii:
White Male are the biggest problem in this country, shooting every public place with reckless abandon. But DOJ and the racist POS in the white house will not designate them as a terrorist organization. They are busy going after Antifa and Black power group. The racists in the white house inspired the Toronto mosque shooter, Christchurch shooter and now the El paso Shooter. Little wonder they ain't ready to take any step in curtailing these criminals.

The shooter lives over 9 hours away in Allen, Texas. He traveled 600 miles to a predominately Hispanic area to commit this mass murder. This is definetely a racially motivated hate crime and an act of terrorism. So far 18 people dead, for no reason at all.

El Paso Shooter Identified Online As Trump Supporter Who Didn’t Like ‘Race Mixing’
Patrick Crusius allegedly left behind a racist manifesto before the deadly shooting rampage at a mall.

https://newsone.com/3883517/el-paso-shooter-patrick-crusius/

The suspect in a deadly mass shooting at a shopping mall in El Paso, Texas, on Saturday was widely identified on the internet as a young white man whose social media activity showed support and sympathy for the president’s apparent white nationalist agenda. The name and photos of a man purported to be Patrick Crusius quickly circulated across Twitter in the hours after the shooting that first began outside a Walmart store at Cielo Vista Mall was first reported. If those reports were accurate, Crusius, allegedly a Texas native, just turned 21 last week.

A manifesto purportedly written by Crusius, perhaps even in the hours before the shooting attack that according to one report left at least 18 people dead, was left behind. Pages of the manifesto included anti-immigrant rhetoric with the author going into depth on why he is “against race mixing,” supports the idea to “send them back” and offering a prediction of “genocide.”

The El Paso shooting was the second mass shooting in as many weeks reportedly attributed to white supremacists. Just last week, Santino William Legan killed multiple people attending the Garlic Festival in Gilroy, California. That shooting and Saturday’s shooting in El Paso were the latest in a growing string of attempted and carried-out mass shootings attributed to overt pro-white racism that has soared since Trump was elected.

In the letters sent or delivered to the Dakolo's address, why are they being invited to go all the way to Abuja to make a statement when they could have reported to a closer station in Lagos or better still, send some investigating officers to their address to get whatever statement the NPF requires.

The words on the letter is clearly intimidating, it shows the NPF are dumb, whoever composed the letter. Also why is it taking such a long time to invite them for questioning?

The public are still waiting for COZA pastor's robust statement from the Ese Walter's allegations from few years ago.

Some people might say the incident happened years ago without any evidence...they should remember that Bill Cosby was sentenced to prison for alleged sexual crimes he committed many years ago.

President Trump's language is nationalist, racist, divisive and very unpresidential. He is slowly damaging the republican party and giving voice to the racists.

To my fellow Nigerians who supports Trump's language, how will they feel or react is President Buhari said publicly that if one ethnic group is not happy in the North, they can leave the Northern states of Nigeria?

This is getting into serious territory.

The Department of State Services (DSS) says it has uncovered a plot by Nyesom Wike, Rivers state governor, to cause mass violence in the federal capital territory (FCT).

The secret police said this in a statement issued by Tony Opuiyo, its agent, on Thursday.

According to the DSS, Wike wanted to execute his plan through Ikenga Ugochinyere, an aide of Senate President Bukola Saraki.

“The Department of State Services (DSS) wishes to inform the general public that it has uncovered a sinister plot by the Rivers State Governor Nyesom Wike to disrupt machinery of governance in strategic federal government agencies by provoking a violent breach of peace in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Abuja, today, 22nd December, 2016 and beyond especially at this Yuletide season,” it said.

“To achieve this, the governor had secured the services of one Ikenga Imo Ugochinyere, a personal aide to the Senate President, Bukola Saraki to mobilise some hoodlums to execute their plan.

“The aim of the plot is to cause mayhem, a complete breakdown of law and order and cast the security agencies and the federal government in bad light. It is also intended to divert public and international attention from the ongoing police investigation into the unwholesome role played by the governor and some of his cronies in the violence that trailed the re-run election in Rivers state which resulted in the gruesome murder of civilians including the beheading of DSP Mohammed Alkali and some of his colleagues as well as the brutalisation of INEC staff who failed to do the bidding of the governor.”

The DSS said Wike had hired protesters to besiege the National Human Rights Commission, Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), the national assembly, the Nigeria Army and police headquarters as well as British high commission, US embassy and the UN secretariat, Abuja “in an effort to raise false alarm that Rivers state was under the siege of security agencies during the election”.

“While the obvious aim is to draw public sympathy and international attention to spurious allegations of involvement of federal agencies in violence during the last elections in Rivers state, the actual objective is really to trigger a round of violent action against the government and create opportunity for idlers to join the deceitful protest,” it said.

“Part of the orchestration is to provoke the security agencies and prompt them to take action against the protesters that could result in bloodletting. It is in this line that Ikenga had gone to the outskirts of Abuja to mobilise unemployed youths to carry out his bidding. All this was to be done for a fee and resources to be provided from the treasury of the Rivers state government. It is also worrisome that Ikenga would engage in this nefarious plot when, after his last arrest earlier this year by the service, he had pledged to be law abiding and not to cause a breach of the peace.

“Though Ikenga is now at large, the trio of Emeka Idibia, Ugo Apuamagha and Ejike Nwachukwu have been arrested and are helping with further investigations. These men were picked up at the mobilisation venue trying to perfect the logistics for this unholy enterprise. The young men were hired by Ikenga to take custody of items and materials for the planned violent protest. The recovered items include banners, placards and posters with denigrating, inciting and hate inscriptions meant to impinge the authority of the federal government and further subvert the entire machinery of governance in the country.

“In order to make this look credible, Ikenga and his cohorts had adopted such groups as lawyers in Defence of Democracy (LDD) and Citizens for Good Governance (CGG) as cover to supposedly make them look like serious minded civil rights groups and thus bring them into collision course with security agencies. Investigations have so far revealed that while Ikenga is the field organiser and coordinator of the planned protest, Governor Wike is his sole financial sponsor.”

The DSS said it was disturbed that the governor “will stoop so low to hire thugs and hoodlums to attack the federal capital territory (FCT) and create an atmosphere of chaos and disorder at this yuletide season”.

Wike has since denied the allegation, alleging that the secret police was out to tarnish his reputation.

He spoke through Austin Tam-George, his commissioner of information.

The ex bf is very childish.
He should be charged with the crime of revenge p*orn.

The vengeance of Putin against Turkey is still doing press-ups...

Kind of true, I once worked with a Russian guy, he rarely smiles.

Even in all his family pictures, he hardly crack a smile.

The trial of a former Aviation Minister, Femi Fani-Kayode was on Wednesday stalled due to the inability of the defendant to attend trial.

Mr. Fani-Kayode was charged on November 10 at an Abuja division of the Federal High Court for alleged diversion of N26 million. He was charged by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC.

Apart from the five-count charge at the Abuja Division, Mr. Fani-Kayode is also facing separate charges at another court in Lagos.

At the Lagos Court, Mr. Fani-Kayode is charged alongside a former minister of finance, Nenadi Usman, and Danjuma Yusuf.

They were charged by the EFCC on 17 counts bordering on money laundering to the tune of over N4 billion.

That trial had been stalled in November following the detention of Mr. Fani-Kayode.

The trial in Abuja was billed to continue on Wednesday, but was also stalled following the defendant’s health situation.

Mr. Fani-Kayode’s lawyer, Wale Balogun, informed the court that his client was ill and therefore could not attend the trial.
Mr. Balogun presented a medical report to the trial judge, John Tsoho, and asked for an adjournment to allow his client attend to his health, before proceeding with the trial.

The prosecution made no counter application, so the matter was adjourned till February 6, 2017.
