Election day is nearing and the Dems continue to pump out more untruths.
Before we get to those, rumour has it that Robert Mueller’s Russian collusion probe could end up being a damp squib:
Politico is left-of-centre, ergo not a Trump-supporting news site. Excerpts from their article follow, emphases mine:
Thatâs the word POLITICO got from defense lawyers working on the Russia probe and more than 15 former government officials with investigation experience spanning Watergate to the 2016 election case. The public, they say, shouldnât expect a comprehensive and presidency-wrecking account of Kremlin meddling and alleged obstruction of justice by Trump â not to mention an explanation of the myriad subplots that have bedeviled lawmakers, journalists and amateur Mueller sleuths.
Perhaps most unsatisfying: Muellerâs findings may never even see the light of day.
âThatâs just the way this works,â said John Q. Barrett, a former associate counsel who worked under independent counsel Lawrence Walsh during the Reagan-era investigation into secret U.S. arms sales to Iran. âMueller is a criminal investigator. Heâs not government oversight, and heâs not a historianâ …
For starters, Mueller isnât operating under the same ground rules as past high-profile government probes, including the Reagan-era investigation into Iranian arms sale and whether President Bill Clinton lied during a deposition about his extramarital affair with a White House intern. Those examinations worked under the guidelines of a post-Watergate law that expired in 1999 that required investigators to submit findings to Congress if they found impeachable offenses, a mandate that led to Starrâs salacious report that upended Clintonâs second term.
Muellerâs reporting mandate is much different. He must notify his Justice Department supervisor â currently Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein â on his budgeting needs and all âsignificant eventsâ made by his office, including indictments, guilty pleas and subpoenas.
When Mueller is finished, he must turn in a âconfidential report explaining the prosecution or declination decisionsâ â essentially why he chose to bring charges against some people but not others. His reasoning, according to veterans of such investigations, could be as simple as âthere wasnât enough evidenceâ to support a winning court case.
Then, it will be up to DOJ leaders to make the politically turbo-charged decision of whether to make Muellerâs report public.
Government officials will first get a chance to scrub the special counselâs findings for classified details, though, involving everything from foreign intelligence sources to information gleaned during grand jury testimony that the law forbids the government from disclosing.
Theyâll also have to weigh the input from a number of powerful outside forces …
Now on to the Democrats.
Not a lot of people know that Trump is more popular now than Obama was at this point in 2010, the year of his first mid-term:
Why do Democrats vote against middle class interests?
Why do they keep saying Trump is racist?
Why do they lie about Republican plans for health insurance?
Excerpts from Dr McCaughey’s New York Post article follow:
Across the country, Democratic ads are telling voters a big lie. Dems claim theyâre protecting people with preÂexisting medical conditions but Republicans would take that protection away. The idea is that ObamaCare is the only way to safeguard people with preexisting conditions. Thatâs false, and the outcome of the midterm elections could turn on this falsehood.
A super PAC allied with Sen. Chuck Schumer is behind many of these ads, including one targeting Republican Josh Hawley, whoâs in a tight race with Missouri Sen. Claire McCaskill. If heâs elected, the ad claims, millions of Missourians could lose their protections. In another ad, McCaskill tells the camera âTwo years ago, I beat breast cancer,â then says her opponent would do away with protections for preexisting conditions like cancer.
These ads blatantly mislead voters. Hawleyâs on the record insisting that health-reform legislation must include these protections.
So is Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, who has called on his state lawmakers to enact protections. But never mind the truth. The Democratic Governors Association is funding an ad with a breast-cancer patient saying she wonât be able to afford lifesaving treatments if Walker is reelected.
She says that Republicans in general are partly to blame for not explaining their position properly.
Here is the problem with Obamacare. I mention this specifically for my overseas readers who think it operates like the NHS. It doesn’t:
ObamaCare isnât the only way to protect people with preexisting conditions. Just the most unfair way. It compels insurers to charge the healthy and the sick the same price. Thatâs the major reason ObamaCare premiums for 2019 are triple what they were in 2013 …
Right now, the middle class, who are ineligible for a subsidy, are getting priced out of ObamaCare. Theyâre hoping to enroll in so-called short-term plans that offer fewer benefits (no inpatient mental-health care, for example) and low prices. The Trump administration recently relaxed insurance regulations to help sticker-shocked consumers buy these plans.
Yet last Friday seven advocacy groups, such as the American Psychiatric Association, sued to stop these plans and slam closed this escape hatch from ObamaCare. The litigants said the plans would âdraw low-risk people out ofâ ObamaCare. Thatâs exactly the point. People want choices and lower premiums.
She says a federal insurance-fallback program would address the issue. In the meantime, the Dems are perpetrating untruths:
Let voters choose based on real issues, not a phony one.
And, finally, there are the human ‘caravans’ coming in from Latin America via Mexico. The Left is organising these, just as they organised the one in June:
On that topic:
Mexico’s efforts during the week of October 15 looked good to begin with, but were ineffectual. Trump was understandably unhappy — especially with the Democrats:
So …
The Mexican president had addressed the country two days before, announcing that the government’s response would continue to be strong (possibly thanks to the American secretary of state Mike Pompeo):
Spanish-speakers might be interested in reading the supportive replies he received from his fellow Mexicans. They do not want these human caravans, either.
Regardless of what Dems and the media say — ‘Think of the children!’ — this is manufactured chaos involving a lot of clean, well-fed young men …
… who hate not only President Trump but also the United States:
The left-wing media are peddling false sob stories. They’re only on foot for photo ops:
This is the truth of the matter:
A reporter from the LA Times is in Mexico. She saw first hand that these people don’t care about law or order …
… or borders (‘We are humans’, ‘No one is illegal’):
And, who else could be among them?
I hope this Leftist — Democrat — chaos fails dismally, especially at the ballot box on November 6.
Texas
Robert O’Rourke — ‘Beto’ (pron. ‘Bay-toh’) — is running against incumbent Ted Cruz for the US Senate.
James O’Keefe’s Project Veritas was able to penetrate his campaign office and obtain jaw-dropping information. This is brand new, made around Halloween and posted online on November 1:
This is 23 minutes well spent:
The Project Veritas report says, in part:
Project Veritas Action Fund has released undercover video from current Congressman and US Senate candidate Beto OâRourkeâs campaign. The video exposes how his campaign staff appear to be illegally using campaign resources to buy supplies and help transport Honduran aliens. This is the eighth undercover video report Project Veritas has released in a series revealing secrets and lies from political campaigns in 2018.
Said James OâKeefe, founder and president of Project Veritas Action:
âCharity and helping your fellow man are things we applaud at Project Veritas Action. The problem is, you canât break the law when you do it.â
…
A Project Veritas Action attorney reviewed the footage and assessed:
âThe material Project Veritas Action Fund captured shows campaign workers covering up the true nature of spending of campaign funds and intentionally misreporting them. This violates the FECâs rules against personal use and misreporting. It also violates Section 1001, making a false statement to the federal government. The FEC violations impose civil penalties, including fines of up to $10,000 or 200 percent of the funds involved. Violations of Section 1001 are criminal and include imprisonment of up to five years.â
The campaign found out that a group of Honduran illegals are already in the US and are stopping on their way to Missouri to be sheltered by a church. Sean Hannity has more dialogue from the video (emphases mine):
âYou know that migrant caravan? A few of them got here already and theyâre dropping them off like really close,â said a campaign field manager. âIâm going to get some food right now and some stuff to drop off.â
âDonât ever repeat this stuff but like, if we just say weâre buying some food for an event, like Halloween events,â suggested another staffer.
âThatâs not a horrible idea, but I didnât hear anything,â said the manager. âI think we can use that with [prepaid campaign debit cards] to buy some food, all that sh*t can be totally masked.â
But, didn’t Dems say they weren’t going to help the illegals?
James O’Keefe followed up with Beto’s campaign manager and posted the following video on November 2:
Earlier that day Beto got an endorsement from Obama’s CIA director. Hmm:
O’Keefe has alerted the local newspaper:
Other media outlets have ignored the story, too:
I hope that any readers in Texas will circulate these videos this weekend. Apparently, this Sunday — the final before mid-terms — is when a lot of churchgoers vote.
Thank you in advance.
