A quote from my old boss, a police chief, old school, salty old guy. A man comes to the station to complain about an what an officer in his command either did or didn't do. Okay here is a form to fill out & we will investigate your complaint, sez the chief. Oh I don't want to sign anything, I want to remain anon sez the guy. If you are anon then you are nobody & we don't take complaints from nobody's, sez the chief.

If there is such a person or persons in the White House baby sitting like they say then who would be left to do the baby sitting if this person said who he was and came out. Best for him to stay quiet a bit longer so at least Trump can be monitored and kept away for any of the red buttons in his office. With both the book coming out and this letter to the New York times which they say they know who the author is, Trumps wee fingers will soon be down to bleeding stubs if he doesn't slow down with the tweeting. If there is such a person Tommy in the WH do you really thing that he will stay anonymous for long? This is Washington remember that we are talking about and secrets don't stay secret very long. Everyone in the WH today spend all day running around like chickens with their heads cut off saying it wasn't me, it wasn't me. If anyone on the inside did write the letter Tommy then who do you think it was? The same question for everyone at the sight. Who was it? Apparently even the Vice President is being considered by some but I don't think myself it would have been from Spence the Mortician, do you?

I don't think the left have quite grasped the crisis this possible coup from within an elected government creates. To them at the moment, the means justifys the end, the end being the overturning of the election, but they cannot grasp, that once committed there is no end to further ends, the opposition will always be looking for another end. Once you have set a precedence, there is no turning back. Everything in a democricy, every law, principle and action is set by a precedence, it has guided us for centuries. The deep state is real, more real than this leaker at the moment, as we do not know for sure he truly exists, or he is just another deep state rouse, which the press are dutifully running with. There is a powerful resentment running through half of America at the moment and the usually placid right are going to come out fighting if this subterfuge gets exposed. Meanwhile, McCabe is to be investigated.

Here's another one no one would ever thing of. How about Linsey Graham. He was best of friends with McCain and they had both bad mouthed Trump on several occasion and now all of a sudden he's part of the Trump Party and has been talking to Donald and apparently coaching him on different subjects. It seems like he has done a 180 over night.

I totally agree with the claim made in the article (or is it in the book?) that those seen as traitors working behind Trump's back to thwart him are actually the true patriots working for the good of America, which is a completely different thing than working for the good of Trump. They are the ones preventing the idiot-in-chief from wrecking everything.

So you think it's right that civil servants dictate government policy do you? Can you point out a single civil servant who has a single vote to their name? This is the kind of mindset that is pervading right across the western world, the 'we know what's best for you' mindset, very lefty, very dangerous. Thankfully they are on the retreat now, following the example set by Farage, then Trump, now it's spreading right across eastern Europe, Italy, France and Germany. Obarmy just gave us a glimpse of why his lot lost to Trump. Everything he doesn't like, from policies to his breakfast is untimately the fault of underlying racism.

If your leader is an obvious crackpot who is potentially dangerous then it's right to keep them from ruining the country with their hare-brained schemes. Civil Servants DO run the country, Ministers come up with ideas Civil Servants mould them into something workable. If we let them have their head we'd all be ruined.

Unfortunitly when Trump said he would drain the swamp of it's bad creatures he ended up filling it gain with lobbyist who all brought their own agendas with them. Not only did they bring them but were put in places where they could also without restriction implement them. These are people who are faithful only to the money and who don't give a crap about clean air, water or even the environment. They will tell you all the top scientists in the world are wrong but have no prove to stand by their own claims. For them it's still all about the money and to to hell with the people.

What are lobyists Pete? I think the word didn't exist until the evil Trump came to power. Lobbyists always bring their own agenda, always have, always will, that's the defintion of a lobbyist, they are paid to lobby on behalf of their paymasters. For your information, the green lobby have more paid lobbyists than all other lobbyists put together, which is not surprising considering they are gynormous, super wealthy, multi national companies now, who privately jet all arond the world in their hundreds lecturing the rest of us on our carbon footprint. If you're looking for wealth pollution and hypocricy, look no furhter than than the super rich green lobby.

You underestimate the influence of the Civil Service; government policy announcements are interpreted by Whitehall and moulded into something workable. Many Ministers have had their schemes re-written by the backroom boys.


As for Trump's hare-brained schemes his Mexican wall is one that will never be realized.

Deputy director of the FBI, sorry, ex deputy director of the FBI, Andre McCabe, is finally facing a criminal investigation by a grand jury for using his position to advance his own personal political interests, but it was through Clinton he was doing it. His wife was the one who accepted $800,000 to persue a political career. He's going to be the first over the grill and if he goes for the bargain, the whole pack of shite will collapse.

You seem to have your facts wrong again Major. The money his wife received was completely above board.



Washington (CNN)The Justice Department's inspector general referred its findings on former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe to the US attorney's office in Washington for possible criminal charges associated with lying to internal investigators, according to a source familiar with the matter.

When exactly the referral was made to the US attorney's office was not immediately clear, and prosecutors there may decline to prosecute.
Last week, the IG issued a report finding that McCabe "lacked candor" on four occasions with internal investigators when discussing a Wall Street Journal article about the FBI's Clinton Foundation investigation, according to a copy of the report obtained by CNN.
    In addition, the inspector general determined that McCabe was not authorized to disclose the existence of the investigation because it was not within the department's "public interest" exception for disclosing ongoing investigations.
    The disclosure to the Journal was made "in a manner designed to advance his personal interests at the expense of department leadership," the report said.
    While leaking non-classified information is generally not a crime in itself and the IG's investigation was not a criminal probe, lying to federal investigators is a crime.
    Referrals are not unusual but the move is significant give McCabe's role as the former No. 2 at the FBI.
    McCabe's attorney, Michael Bromwich, said he believes there will be no charges filed.
    "We were advised of the referral within the past few weeks. Although we believe the referral is unjustified, the standard for an IG referral is very low," Bromwich said in a statement.
    "We have already met with staff members from the US Attorney's Office," he added. "We are confident that, unless there is inappropriate pressure from high levels of the Administration, the US Attorney's Office will conclude that it should decline to prosecute."
      The Justice Department, the inspector general's office and the US attorney's office all declined to comment.
      The findings formed the basis of McCabe's firing last month by Attorney General Jeff Sessions.

      What are lobyists Pete? Lobbyists are usually big companies or Organizations that will make large to very large campaign contributions to parties to have their views considered.  Trump was so pleased with their monitary support he rewarded them by not only listening but filling vital positions with them. To the Lobbyist it was like scoring a home run. Way do you think even with the problems with all the mass gun shooting with military style weapons Trump says nothing bad about the NRA (national rifle association) It's because they bought his silence with millions of dollars in campaign contributions.

      Pete, in the EU Parliament there is a specific room, built and maintained solely for the use of lobbyists to get access to the political class. Lobbying is, and always has been part and parcel of political life. It became an evil passtime when Trump arrived and will become angelic once more when he leaves.

      Of course it was above board, that doesn't mean it doesn't stink to high heaven. Clinton is using a private email server for national security business, gets found out and is referred to the FBI for possible prosecution. The FBI exonerate her before even asking her a single question, she then destroys 33,000 emails, along with all the equipment and surprise surprise, McCabe's wife suddenly gets $800,000 off her? C'mon?

      Trump and the Republicans give financal support to canidates running for elections so why would you think it odd that the Demo's do the same. Actually if you check the numbers right now The Republicans are putting a lot more money into the fall elections to try and hold seats than the Demo's are.

      The money is used for rallys, TV and Radio ads, renting buses and leaflets to hand out. Any elections in the States are big money and it's usually handed outto the canidates in the millions, not a mere 800 thousand.

      So you think it's right that civil servants dictate government policy do you? Can you point out a single civil servant who has a single vote to their name? It is not the first time an insider Major in Washington has opened the countries eyes for them of wrong doing and lead to a President being show the door. This person hasn't dictated government policy to anyone, he just pointing out that there are problems in the WH. It isn't even illegal what he did and he would never even be charged with it. Had to smile at Pence the mortician telling everyone today that he wouldn't be afraid taking a lie detector to prove he was innocence and didn't write the letter. The letter along with the book seems to have the inside WH pointing fingers at each other and forgeting everything else.

      Trump and company has got that short list down to only a few names now. With the book hitting the streets today Trumps little fingers will be working over time. Now even the writer of the book has said he will take a lie detector test to prove what he wrote is true. With the group in the WH lieing so much to the American people for the last 2 years, why should anyone believe them now when they say it wasn't them that wrote the letter. It was probably Trumps daughter along with Graham that wrote the letter. It was Graham that got Trumps daughter a seat at McCains funeral. Why would she attend when her father wasn't allowed?

      It's now looking increasingly likely that the DOJ documents, relating to the Ohr's, Fusion GPS and David Steele are going to be declassified. This could be very damaging to them. When you have an FBI official getting paid through the bank account of his wife, by the Democrats, to create the fake dosier, which he then takes back into the FBI, who use it to gain a FISA warrant to spy on a presidential candidate, you are dangerously interfering with the legal democratic process. The Dems are desperate to contain all this until after the mid terms, when they hope a victory gives them the time and power they need to bury this disgusting conspiricy of theirs.

      There were rememberance services all over today, 17 years now since 9-11 shocked the world. You would think Trump would tweet reminding everyone about it, but no. He goes on a rant instead about Hillary and her e-mails and the the Mueller investigation. It wasn't till hours later that he mentioned it. Then he went on to talk about how good a job he did in Puerto Rico. He forgot to mention the 3000 people who lost their lives there because his good job wasn't good enough. Hell that's the same number that died during 9-11 and those unfortunite souls all died fast and weren't sentence to a slow death in the open without food water, power, and medicine. Tonight the Govenor of Puerto Rice on TV asked Trump could he send them the supplies that he promised them that never arrived.
