Join me and let's follow that high road...
Authored by Caitlin Johnstone via Medium.com, The Robert Mueller investigation which monopolized political discourse for two years has finally concluded,
and his anxiously awaited report has been submitted to Attorney General
William Barr. The results are in and the debate is over: those
advancing the conspiracy theory that the Kremlin has infiltrated the
highest levels of the US government were wrong, and those of us voicing
skepticism of this were right.
As we knew we would be.
The contents of the report are still secret, but CNN’s Justice
Department reporter Laura Jarrett has told us all we need to know, tweeting, “Special Counsel Mueller is not recommending ANY further indictments am told.” On top of that, William Barr said in a letter to congressional leaders that there has been no obstruction of Mueller’s investigation by Justice Department officials. So that’s it, then. A completely unhindered
investigation has failed to convict a single American of any kind of
conspiracy with the Russian government, and no further indictments are
coming. The political/media class which sold rank-and-file Americans on
the lie that the Mueller investigation was going to bring down this
presidency were liars and frauds, and none of the goalpost-moving that I
am sure is already beginning to happen will change that.
Say it again: Mueller has indicted
*zero* Americans for conspiring with Russia to influence the 2016
election, which was central impetus for the Special Counsel in the first
place. Anyone who denies this is an abject liar https://t.co/gRQdr01ZCv
It has been obvious from the very beginning that the Maddow Muppets were being sold a lie. In 2017 I wrote an article titled “How We Can Be Certain That Mueller Won’t Prove Trump-Russia Collusion”,
saying that Mueller would continue finding evidence of corruption
“since corruption is to DC insiders as water is to fish”, but he will
not find evidence of collusion. If you care to take a scroll through the
angry comments on that article, just on Medium alone, you will see a
frozen snapshot of what the expectations were from mainstream liberals
at the time. They had swallowed the Russiagate narrative hook,
line and sinker, and they believed that the Mueller investigation was
going to vindicate them. It did not.
I’ve been saying Russiagate is bullshit from the beginning, and I’ve
been called a Trump shill, a Kremlin propagandist, a Nazi and a troll
every day for saying so by credulous mass media-consuming dupes who
drank the Kool Aid. And I’ve only taken a fraction of the flack
more high profile Russiagate skeptics like Glenn Greenwald and Michael
Tracey have been getting for expressing doubt in the Gospel According to
Maddow. The insane, maniacal McCarthyite feeding frenzy that
these people were plunged into by nonstop mass media propaganda drowned
out the important voices who tried to argue that public energy was being
sucked into Russia hysteria and used to manufacture support for dangerous cold war escalations with a nuclear superpower.
Just think what we could have done with that energy over the last two
years. Think how much public support could have been poured into the
sweeping progressive reforms called for by the Sanders movement, for
example, instead of constant demands for more sanctions and nuclear
posturing against Russia. Think how much more attention could have been
drawn to Trump’s actual horrific policies like his facilitation of Saudi
butchery in Yemen or his regime change agendas in Iran and Venezuela,
his support for ecocide and military expansionism and the barbarism of
Jair Bolsonaro and Benjamin Netanyahu. Think how much more energy could
have gone into beating back the Republicans in the midterms, reclaiming
far more House seats and taking the Senate as well, gathering momentum
for a presidential candidacy that truly threatens Trump instead of 9,000
primary candidates who will probably be selected by superdelegates
after the first ballot when there’s too many of them to establish a
clear majority under the new rules.

sums up: "Mock the Russiagaters.Mock them ruthlessly, and never, ever
let them forget the horrible thing that they did. Never stop making fun
of them and reminding them how stupid and crazy they acted during this
humiliating period of US history." https://t.co/rWTs9vHYPe
We must never let them forget what they did or what they cost
us all. We must never let mainstream Democrats forget how crazy they
got, how much time and energy they wasted, how very, very wrong they
were and how very, very right we were.
Never stop reminding them of this. Never stop mocking them for it.
Never stop mocking their idiotic Rachel Maddow worship. Never stop
mocking the Robert Mueller prayer candles. Never stop making fun of the
way they blamed all their problems on Susan Sarandon. Never stop
reminding them of those stupid pink vagina hats. Never stop mocking them
for elevating Louise Mensch and Eric Garland. Never stop mocking them
for creating the fucking Krassenstein brothers.
Every politician, every media figure, every Twitter pundit
and everyone who swallowed this moronic load of bull spunk has
officially discredited themselves for life.Going forward,
authority and credibility rests solely with those who kept clear eyes
and clear heads during the mass media propaganda blitzkrieg, not with
those who were stupid enough to believe what they were told about the
behaviors of a noncompliant government in a post-Iraq invasion world. The
people who steered us into two years of Russiavape insanity are the
very last people anyone should ever listen to ever again when
determining the future direction of our world.

AND THE SATANIC LEFT GOES ABSOLUTELY NUTS
As left-wing news outlets were forced to cover the completion of the Mueller report sans high-level indictments (Trump Jr., for example), Rachel Maddow had a grand-mal meltdown after having been forced by MSNBC to cancel a fishing trip and drive in to work on a Friday night.
Maddow fought back tears as she reported on her own collapsing narrative, to which Twitter user 'Karli Bonne' (@kbq2251) posted avideo of herself laughing at Maddow's despair.
As the video began to go viral, Twitter suspended her account.
Bonne then tweeted the video from another account (@kbq225) which was
quickly amplified by several people, including actor James Woods, who
truly gives zero f*cks now that Hollywood has blacklisted him for being
openly conservative.
#Maddow
either choking on kitty litter chunks or facing the hard cold reality
she’s the worst journalist in television history. Always certain, but
rarely right... #LifeIsJoyouspic.twitter.com/VCe9dwXp2y
#Maddow was actually crying. Crying! Not since her drunken liar goddess #Hillary got pummeled in the election have I seen such agony etched onto the face of this bonehead. Dear God, this is so much fun... #MuellerReport
Cry me a river!!! They just suspended my account again!! @kbq2251 wth not even a email this time O well here we go again!! Thanks schills I’m still lol no collusion!😂🤣🤣🤣 pic.twitter.com/a1ZxE7AsUY
While Twitter's ban of Karli may have backfired due to the Streisand effect (not not the Streisand defect), reactions to Maddow's meltdown have been hilarious.
I’m admittedly no facial expression expert but my sense is that these two individuals aren’t having the most jovial evening: pic.twitter.com/OArgory6b0
So called liberals are actually violent, hate filled fascists intent on causing harm to anyone who disagrees with them. So much for their hypocrisy about being the party and movement of love
Two hours before Breitbart News editor Milo Yiannopoulos was to give a
speech at the student union, protesters tossed metal barricades and
rocks through the building's windows and set a light generator on fire
near the entrance, footage from news outlets showed.
Just toppled a light pole. Craziest protest I've seen in Berkeley by far. Crowd fast turning violent. pic.twitter.com/5ujFLOtA4u
Police ordered protesters to disperse as the school put the campus on
lockdown. Protesters also tossed bricks and fireworks at police in riot
gear who fired rubber pellets back at the crowd, according to
SFGate.com, a news outlet in San Francisco.
"We shut down the event. It was great. Mission accomplished," a protester told CNN.
Some 150 "masked agitators" were responsible for the violence during
the otherwise largely peaceful protest of about 1,500 people, the
university said in a statement, noting that the school "is proud of its
history and legacy as home of the Free Speech Movement" in the 1960s.
Many have expressed curiosity if the masked agitators are the same ones
who tried to provoke violence during Trump's inauguration and if they
are funded by certain financially endowed "liberal" organizations linked
to George Soros.
Donald Trump's chief strategist, Steve Bannon, previously headed
Breitbart News and CNN reported that many of the protesters voiced
opposition to the Republican president.
One protester at Berkeley held a sign that said "No Safe Space for
Racists" while other protesters danced to hip hop music, footage from a
Facebook Live feed showed. Protesters later marched along streets near
the campus where some smashed storefront windows and car windshields
while clashing with police, the feed showed.
Yiannopoulos, whose account on Twitter was suspended last year after
he was accused of participating in the online harassment of an
African-American actress, criticized "the Left", saying in a statement
it was "absolutely terrified of free speech and will do literally
anything to shut it down."
He also said on Fox News that he was evacuated by police after
protesters began throwing rocks and other objects at the building.
"Obviously it’s a liberal campus so they hate any libertarians or
conservatives who dare to express an opinion on their campuses," he
said. "They particularly don’t like me."
On Thursday morning, in a barrage of tweets that touched on topics as
far ranging as Rex Tillerson, to the death of Navy SEAL Ryan Owens to
the Iran ballistic missile test, Trump also lashed out at UC Berkley,
and hinted that the university which "does not allow free speech and
practices violence on innocent people with a different point of view"
may see its federal funding yanked.
If U.C.
Berkeley does not allow free speech and practices violence on innocent
people with a different point of view - NO FEDERAL FUNDS
This isn't the first time Starbucks and Trump have been at odds;
Trump’s relationship with the coffee company is complicated, to say the least. Starbucks CEOHoward SchultzendorsedHillary Clintonduring the 2016 election, whereas Trump oncetold supporters to boycott the companybecause they didn’t say “Christmas” on their red cups for the holiday season...openly calling for the death of Christians worldwide in his tweets.
In
what may be a response, Trump supporters are using the hashtag
#TrumpCup to taunt Starbucks employees and make them call out the
President-elect’s name -Mediaite
Sunday's announcement on refugee hires, made in a letter to employees, has been met with fierce backlash, as well as many committing to switch to Dunkin' Donuts, whose shares were up today. The
hashtag #BoycottStarbucks is predictably making it's way around
Twitter, which has of course resulted in hilarity - including a new
nickname with several contenders for the logo. And of course, there's Twitter:

Amy Mek reminds us of Starbucks' willing participation in the
institutionalized mistreatment of women (while they installed a "gender
segregation wall" of course):

I already boycott Starbucks because I wont pay $5 for shit coffee without booze in it

It has been well documented on Youtube that Starbucks employees routinely spit or otherwise defile the coffee drinks of Christians and Trump supporters. Sbux CEO has openly called for Christians to never patronize the company, an open hatred of God and those of the faith.
It will be interesting to keep an eye on $SBUX and $DNKN over the next few days if this picks up steam:
Unsurprisingly Democrats are up in arms over the firing of 'their'
Acting Attorney General, seemingly making her out to be some
freedom-fighting martyr for their cause of selective and political law
enforcement... (as The Hill reports)
The
Democratic National Committee released a statement late Monday
responding to ”tyrannical” President Trump’s decision to fire Acting
Attorney General Sally Yates. Yates was fired shortly after she
announced that Justice Department not to defend Trump’s controversial
executive order on immigration under her watch.
"Donald Trump can try to silence heroic patriots like
Sally Yates who dare to speak truth to power about his illegal
anti-Muslim ban that emboldens terrorists around the globe. But he
cannot silence the growing voices of an American people now wide awake
to his tyrannical presidency,” the DNC statement read.
* * * Update #2: That "mutiny" did not last long. At 9:16pm on
Monday, President Trump announced the firing of the acting attorney
general, Sally Yates, who defied him just three hours earlier on his
migrant-travel ban urging the DOJ not to follow his executive order,
saying she "has betrayed the Department of Justice."
Yet another Obummer lesbian gets a pink slip.
Acting AG Yates has been relieved of duty...
Statement on the Appointment of Dana Boente as Acting Attorney General
The acting Attorney General, Sally Yates, has betrayed the Department
of Justice by refusing to enforce a legal order designed to protect the
citizens of the United States. This order was approved as to form and
legality by the Department of Justice Office of Legal Counsel.
Ms. Yates is an Obama Administration appointee who is weak on borders and very weak on illegal immigration.
It is time to get serious about protecting our country. Calling for
tougher vetting for individuals travelling from seven dangerous places
is not extreme. It is reasonable and necessary to protect our country.
Tonight, President Trump relieved Ms. Yates of her duties and
subsequently named Dana Boente, U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District
of Virginia, to serve as Acting Attorney General until Senator Jeff
Sessions is finally confirmed by the Senate, where he is being wrongly
held up by Democrat senators for strictly political reasons.
"I am honored to serve President Trump in this role until Senator
Sessions is confirmed. I will defend and enforce the laws of our country
to ensure that our people and our nation are protected," said Dana
Boente, Acting Attorney General.

Update #1: President Trump responds...
The Democrats
are delaying my cabinet picks for purely political reasons. They have
nothing going but to obstruct. Now have an Obama A.G.
* * *
As we detailed earlier, in what those with a flair for the dramatic
might be allowed to call "mutiny", Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates,
who is the current acting Attorney General, has given orders to Justice Department lawyers not to defend Trump's executive order. Her just released statement is below:
On
January 27, 2017, the President signed an Executive Order regarding
immigrants and refugees from certain Muslim-majority countries. The
order has now been challenged in a number of jurisdictions. As
the Acting Attorney General, it is my ultimate responsibility to
determine the position of the Department of Justice in these actions.
My role is different from that of the Office of Legal Counsel (OLC),
which, through administrations of both parties, has reviewed Executive
Orders for form and legality before they are issued. OLC's review is
limited to the narrow question of whether, in OLC's view, a proposed
Executive Order is lawful on its face and properly drafted. Its review
does not take account of statements made by an administration or it
surrogates close in time to the issuance of an Executive Order that may
bear on the order's purpose. And importantly, it does not address
whether any policy choice embodied in an Executive Order is wise or
just.
Similarly, in litigation, DOJ Civil Division lawyers are charged with
advancing reasonable legal arguments that can be made supporting an
Executive Order. But my role as leader of this institution is different
and broader. My responsibility is to ensure that the position of the
Department of Justice is not only legally defensible, but is informed by
our best view of what the law is after consideration of all the facts.
In addition, I am responsible for ensuring that the positions we take in
court remain consistent with this institution's solemn obligation to
always seek justice and stand for what is right. At present, I
am not convinced that the defense of the Executive Order is consistent
with these responsibilities nor am I convinced that the Executive Order
is lawful.
Consequently, for as long as I am the Acting Attorney
General, the Department of Justice will not present arguments in defense
of the Executive Order, unless and until I become convinced that it is
appropriate to do so.
While it is clear that Yates is making a purely political statement,
her glaring insubordination to the Trump administration will take on a
largely symbolic hue, and may be imitated by various other government
agencies which still have interim or permanent democratic leadership, as
is the case with every instance of political "mutiny." As The New York Times notes,
Mr. Trump has the authority to fire Ms. Yates, but as the top
Senate-confirmed official at the Justice Department, she is the only one
authorized to sign foreign surveillance warrants, an essential function
at the department.
That said, Donald Trump's response, once he realizes he may have a mini mutiny on his hands, should be interesting.
