Assortment

Robert Mueller, weasel to the end. Apparently not relishing the prospect of having to testify before Congress, Mueller has abruptly resigned, and, as his final act, he threw a stink-bomb at the White House, essentially saying that he isn't sure Trump didn't commit a crime. Thus ends a career filled to the brim with incompetence, cronyism, unethical behavior and the countenance of injustice (as detailed on this blog previously; his management of the "collusion" investigation is only the last in a conga line of failure and ruined innocent lives). He should slink away from Washington in shame, but his type doesn't have enough honor to grasp the enormity of his moral failings (Update: Sean Davis's comments are right on the mark).

The FBI's haters.

Roger L. Simon wrestles with some shocking new allegations against MLK.

Again I say, primary this jerk: "Trump-Hating GOP Rep. Justin Amash Fires Off Unhinged Tweetstorm Attacking AG Bill Barr".

Dramatic goings-on in the old country: "TORIES TROUNCED, FARAGE FLYING".

Democrats brought a spork to a knife fight and lost badly; hilarity ensues: "Now that the Russia collusion allegations have evaporated, the long knives are out and President Trump’s antagonists are watching their backs. They have moved from accusing him of treason to pushing revisionist narratives that try to shift the blame for the debunked probe onto others."

He just can't help himself: "Joe Biden Asks For 10-Year-Old Girl’s Address, Tells Her She’s 'Good Looking'" If nothing else, this guy has a terribly deficient level of self-awareness.

Haw!!!

A low act indeed from Mr Mueller, but the lefties had already convinced themselves anyway that Trump has something dirty to conceal.
Must have been like this back in the 50s when the hardcore Commies in the West refused to believe that Stalin, in mirror image to PDJT, DID have skeletons in his closet. Thousands and thousands of them.

Low, indeed, but not unexpected. Some of the lefties out there today are of the sort who, back in the day, wouldn't have cared how many skeletons Stalin had in his closet.

As for the new allegations against MLK, I'm withholding judgement, tapes or no tapes. Hoover was as out to get King as Comey/Mueller are out to get Trump if not even more so. I wouldn't put it past Hoover's FBI to even create phony tapes. Most of what has previously been revealed from King's FBI files is about as legit as the Steele Dossier (and the same sort of malicious gossip).

Re: Rep. Justin Amash.

Devin Nunes once called him "al-Qaeda's best friend in America".

Oh, the "alt-right" "white nationalists" are having a field day in the reader comments to Roger Simon's MLK piece. It's the Jews what done it (poisoned race relations). Pardon my language, but what a bunch of ignorant racist fuckwits.

THEY are the people the Media accuses ALL of Donald Trump's supporters of being.

Spiny: I think you're absolutely right to withhold judgement. The FBI has been untrustworthy in many key areas for a long time.

How would anyone who wasn't present in the room know if someone was 'laughing at a rape'? And even if they were present it could be misunderstood. Investigators often get too confident about their methods and it's led to innocents being convicted, a lot of old forensic 'expertise' is being questioned now.

Not that I think MLK was lilywhite - similar things are said of say JFK and a lot of private vice was hidden back then, and there was plenty of temptation. But MLK is still a better example of public decency than just about anyone else comparable - celebrating flawed heroes is still a good thing.

Similar with Gandhi, still a good example for India if nowhere else. BTW Gandhi's Congress Party just suffered the most crushing election defeat in India, wiped out as a national party by Hindu nationalists. I've studied it for decades and I say it's finished, no way back to power. Voters sick of pandering to special interests, mostly Muslims. But this started early 1990s way before Trump.

Justin Amash is of Palestinian Arab extract, and has family business dealings in China. His particular brand of Trump-hate is thus explained.

Leftists have never cared about skeletons, figurative or literal, when made by a fellow. No generation of socialist and communist supporters ever acknowledge the suffering and body count that the policies and beliefs lead to.

BTW Venezuela has dropped off the news map. Guess it's all quiet, and settled down there now.

My relatives in nearby Trinidad say there are tens of thousands of Venezuelans flooding into the island. They are often highly qualified so 'Trinis' are glad to have them.
