A separation of theory, opinion, and reality...

So this morning I read this piece written for "Slate.com"
What you don’t know can hurt you very badly, and there is a great deal that Republicans do not know about Donald Trump. From shady business dealings to questionable tax schemes to potential Russian collusion, the president is dogged by scandals whose depth and significance remain unclear....
In fairness, we still know little about what potential misconduct investigators are scrutinizing. But we know nothing they find is liable to be good news for Trump. The Post revealed that, in addition to exploring obstruction of justice, Mueller’s team is “looking for any evidence of possible financial crimes among Trump associates.” The Times elaborated that Mueller’s investigation “was looking at money laundering” among Trump’s inner circle in the form of a “financial payoff” from Russian officials routed “through offshore banking centers.”
Let's be perfectly clear about one thing. So far, the FBI, the Senate, The House, and Special counsel have been collectively investigating Donald Trump and his associates for nearly a year. The only thing we know almost for a near certainty is that nothing has been uncovered so far that actually rises to real scandalous, much less real criminal behavior.

Oh, there is a lot of speculation. There is a lot of innuendo. There is a lot of perfectly legal activity that has been reported as if it was scandal because it's not normal. But I believe it would be quite fair to say that the President has not been so much "dogged by scandal" as he has been dogged by "allegations of scandal"... none of which at this point have been proven true.

Separate it out:  

I would offer that we have three potential areas where the media is looking for some sort of "scandal".
  • Activities that would be considered illegal. 
  • Activities that would be considered unethical but not illegal. 
  • Activities that are considered politically unusual or outside of normal political protocol. 
With Donald Trump, I think it's fair to say that there are theories of the first, accusations of the second, and plenty of examples of the third.

With the interactions between the President and James Comey, for instance, we have a situation that illustrates this splendidly. Comey complained (apparently to a lot of people) that Trump was not following normal protocol in terms of communication, supervision, direction, etc... What's being reported or alleged by innuendo is that because these actions were outside of normal protocol, that it would follow that they must be unethical, and quite possibly even illegal.

Election campaign:

The larger problem is that one can make a fairly strong argument that Donald Trump was elected largely on the concept that he was not one to follow normal political protocol and behave like a normal politician. Certainly nobody wants a President who breaks the law, or acts in a fashion that would be considered unethical. But for those who voted for Donald Trump, they did want a President who was willing to bypass the typical rules of a Government official. They wanted someone who spoke off the cuff, was willing to ruffle feathers, and was not afraid to wake the sleeping dog that others would chose to let lie.

The fact that this President would fail to see eye to eye with someone like James Comey (who is a stickler for protocol, established his own set of rules, and saw his department as something that it probably wasn't) is not surprising. But it's also not unethical, and also not illegal.

I expect that this will not cease anytime soon. The political insiders, those with partisan interests, and the dishonest liberal media will continue to find everything Trump does that is outside the norms to be unethical or even potentially illegal. After all, he is interfering with their "status quo".  Why shouldn't that be considered criminal?

of course not. this entire charade is central to democrats campaign efforts for the 2018 mid-terms. mathematically they're in big trouble and they know it, so the only strategery that they can coalesce around trying to make the country think that they have a legitimate shot at taking down trump.

cynical? yes. but if anyone has a better interpretation of their actions i'm all ears.

Ken Starr Warns Against Firing Mueller

Former independent counsel Kenneth Starr writes in the Washington Post:

Subject to the possibility of being fired for ‘good cause,’ Mueller should be allowed to do his work unhindered and unimpeded. Absent the most extreme circumstances, the president would be singularly ill-advised to threaten, much less order, Mueller’s firing. Under legally binding regulations, the special counsel’s fate rests exclusively with Deputy Attorney General Rod J. Rosenstein. He alone is empowered to make that fateful decision. As a matter of honor, and in light of his sworn testimony before Congress, Rosenstein would inevitably resign if confronted with a White House directive to dismiss the special counsel. Wisdom counsels strongly against unleashing a 21st-century version of the Saturday Night Massacre of Watergate-era infamy.
_____________

Trump Thinks He Can Intimidate Mueller

James Hohmann: “A person who spoke with Trump on Tuesday told the New York Times that the president was pleased by the intentional ambiguity of his position on firing Robert S. Mueller as special counsel, ‘and thinks the possibility of being fired will focus the veteran prosecutor on delivering what the president desires most: a blanket public exoneration.'

“If the president truly believes this, he fundamentally misunderstands what motivates the former FBI director – who has stood up to previous administrations and never swayed under political pressure.

“Just as almost every previous effort at damage control has made Trump’s Russia-related headaches worse, keeping the door open to firing Mueller earlier this week has now backfired. Key figures on Capitol Hill and in the conservative legal firmament have now gone on the record to warn that ousting the special counsel would trigger a constitutional crisis. That would make it much harder for Trump to go that route down the road.”

The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Friday shows that 50% of Likely U.S. Voters approve of President Trump’s job performance. Fifty percent (50%) disapprove.

This is the first time the president’s overall approval rating has hit the 50% mark since late April. His approval rating has ranged from a high of 59% in late January shortly after he took office to a low of 42% in early April.

WASHINGTON, June 16 (Reuters) - President Donald Trump's transition team has been ordered to preserve materials related to ongoing investigations into alleged Russian meddling in the 2016 U.S. election, the New York Times reported on Friday, as Trump again assailed the probes.

Citing a memo from the general counsel's office of Trump's transition team, the Times said former members were given the order on Thursday for any information involving Russia or Ukraine in the latest sign of the investigations' expanding reach.

The memo comes as U.S. Vice President Mike Pence's office said he had hired a lawyer, known for defending government officials in high-profile investigations, to help him with the probes into the alleged Russian interference and possible ties to the Trump campaign.

Jesuit Scholar: Seeking to Defend Islam at All Costs Is Betraying the Truth

In an interview with the Register, Egyptian Greek Melkite Jesuit Father Henri Boulad explains why he believes Islamist terrorists are applying what their religion teaches them, and why the Church fails to address this because she has fallen prey to a leftist ideology that is destroying the West.

Father Boulad, what evidence is there to show that Islam is inherently violent?

Here are clear statements of the Koran itself :

"Kill the unbelievers wherever you find them." Koran 2:191

"Make war on the infidels living in your neighbourhood." Koran 9:123

"When opportunity arises, kill the infidels wherever you catch them." Koran 9:5

"Any religion other than Islam is not acceptable." Koran 3:85

"The Jews and the Christians are perverts; fight them."... Koran 9:30

"Maim and crucify the infidels if they criticize Islam" Koran 5:33

"Punish the unbelievers with garments of fire, hooked iron rods, boiling water; melt their skin and bellies." Koran 22:19

"The unbelievers are stupid; urge the Muslims to fight them." Koran 8:65

"Muslims must not take the infidels as friends." Koran 3:28

"Terrorize and behead those who believe in scriptures other than the Qur'an." Koran 8:12

"Muslims must muster all weapons to terrorize the infidels." Koran 8:60

he understands that there are certain american traditions that should be allowed to endure. but the left, being the pack of rabid fucking assholes that they are, feel the need to - as whitlock puts it - overthrow everything.

push is coming to shove in this country - literally. and these leftists had better be careful what they wish for, and they had better pick their battles very carefully. i see the right as a ticking time bomb whose patience for their shit will expire explosively and without warning. the fuse is long, but like everything, it has an end.

Who Will Turn Against Trump First?

David Remnick: “Trump’s egotism, his demand for one-way loyalty, and his incapacity to assume responsibility for his own untruths and mistakes were, his biographers make plain, his pattern in business and have proved to be his pattern as President.

“Veteran Washington reporters tell me that they have never observed
this kind of anxiety, regret,
and sense of imminent personal doom among White House staffers—not to this degree, anyway.
These troubled aides seem to think that they can help their own standing
by turning on those around them —and that by retailing information anonymously
they will be able to live with themselves after serving a President
who has proved so disconnected from the truth and reality.”

Is Jeronimo Yanez a white hispanic?
June 16, 2017 at 5:31 PM

James, saddened, said...
The video shows the situation escalated quickly, with Yanez shooting Castile just seconds after Castile volunteered, "Sir, I have to tell you, I do have a firearm on me." Five of the officer's seven shots struck Castile.

Witnesses testified that the gun was in a pocket of Castile's shorts when paramedics removed him from his vehicle.

Prosecutors called several witnesses to try to show that Yanez never saw the gun and acted recklessly and unreasonably. But defense attorneys called their own witnesses to back up Yanez's claim that he saw Castile pulling the gun and that Yanez was right to shoot.

After shooting Castile, Yanez is heard on the squad-car video telling a supervisor that he didn't know where Castile's gun was, then that he told Castile to get his hand off it. Yanez testified, "What I meant by that was I didn't know where the gun was up until I saw it in his right thigh area."

He said he clearly saw a gun and that Castile ignored his commands to stop pulling it out of his pocket. His voice choked with emotion as he talked of being "scared to death" and thinking of his wife and baby daughter in the split-second before he fired.

Prosecutors argued that Yanez could have taken lesser steps, such as asking to see Castile's hands or asking where the gun was. After Castile told the officer he had the gun, Yanez told Castile, "OK, don't reach for it then," and, "Don't pull it out."

On the squad-car video, Castile can be heard saying, "I'm not pulling it out," as Yanez opened fire. Prosecutors said Castile's last words were, "I wasn't reaching for it."

Reynolds testified that she began recording the shooting's aftermath because she feared for her life and wanted to make sure the truth was known. Defense attorneys pointed to inconsistencies in several of her statements.

Jesus said...

“I tell you, on the day of judgment people will give account for every careless word they speak, for by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned.”

Jesus said...

Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth. Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled. Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy. Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God. Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God. Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

“Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me. Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.

“You have heard that it was said to the people long ago, ‘You shall not murder,and anyone who murders will be subject to judgment.’ But I tell you that anyone who is angry with a brother or sister will be subject to judgment. Again, anyone who says to a brother or sister, ‘Raca,’ is answerable to the court. And anyone who says, ‘You fool!’ will be in danger of the fire of hell.

“You have heard that it was said, ‘Eye for eye, and tooth for tooth.’ 39 But I tell you, do not resist an evil person. If anyone slaps you on the right cheek, turn to them the other cheek also. And if anyone wants to sue you and take your shirt, hand over your coat as well. If anyone forces you to go one mile, go with them two miles. Give to the one who asks you, and do not turn away from the one who wants to borrow from you.

“You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbor  and hate your enemy.’ But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, that you may be children of your Father in heaven. He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous. If you love those who love you, what reward will you get? Are not even the tax collectors doing that? And if you greet only your own people, what are you doing more than others? Do not even pagans do that? Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect."
