Mueller Didn’t Clear Trump
Breaking News: Robert Mueller wrote a letter to the attorney general objecting to his characterization that the Russia inquiry appeared to clear President Trump https://t.co/sApMAxyIhX
— The New York Times (@nytimes) April 30, 2019
The letter adds to the growing evidence of a rift between them and is another sign of the anger among the special counselās investigators about Barrās characterization of their findingshttps://t.co/hl9MFjGPCp

Among Trump’s caddies:
Hereās a link describing Barrās employment & investment ties to Russia. As such, Barr should recuse himself as Attorney General. I really believes Robert Mueller should be interviewed ASAP. Impeachment would make doing this a heck of a lot easier!https://t.co/ofeMIOSU2i. (2/2)š

The Cheater in Chief

Nobody — I repeat NOBODY — drives their cart this close to the green or, god forbid, ON the green. @realDonaldTrump does it regularly.
Trump is to golf what Velveeta is to the great chefs of Paris.#CommanderInCheat https://t.co/0nQ8C03IIM— Rick Reilly (@ReillyRick) April 29, 2019
Congratulations @realDonaldTrump on breaking the 10,000-lie barrier in less than than 28 months!

Stephen Moore is the conservative commentator whom President Trump plans to nominate to the Federal Reserve Board. Moore said:
Iād get rid of a lot of these child labor laws. I want people starting to work at 11, 12.
Trumpās Fed pick Steve Moore on CSpan in 2000: āThe male needs to be the breadwinner. One reasons youāve seen decline of the family, not just in black community but now in white community as well, is because women are more economically self-sufficient.ā

Pound this dude for misogyny all day, but don't miss out on how economically illiterate he is. Look to the countries that deny 50% of their population from entering the workforce. They either rely on on extraction industries or they're a basket case.
— Adam Swinson (@AdamSwinson) April 29, 2019
Yet no one is surprised Trump wants him on the fed. At what point do women wake up to this president how many more times must he show hes go no respect for women. they say much about women just to appease but they do nothing Watch wht they do not wht they say

@StephenMoore this frigging child support dodger needs to be in jail not on the fed. He didn't pay his child support until four police, two realtors, and a locksmith raided his home: report. Matthew Chapman 08 Apr 2019

Iām still trying to figure out how this man, managed to fail up enough to now bc he is being considered for this job. How/Why in the World was he ever considered an āEconomistā and āFinancial Expertā? He is the stock photo caption of āFake it until you Make itā.

My worry is that we focus on these issues rather than on his horrible economic record and the fact that his being appointed would call into question the independence of the Fed.

Psychological Warfare Coordinated between UKIP & Brexit Party
UKIP & BrexitParty cooperate: UKIP's task is to let BrexitParty & Farage look moderate.
Ā»Benjamin says he needs āsomething to really triggerā outrage, adding: āDo you have any underage porn or child porn? I will delete it fast so nobody gets in trouble'Ā« (Daily Mail 2019-04-28)

This is a weird story. The case might end without any criminal charges being filed against Carl Benjamin due to lack of evidence. But the UKIP got the desired “outrage” and attention.
2016 Referendum Was Not a Good Idea

Only Silly Voters Would Give Farage a Blank Check

I collect connections between the Brexit and "The Hunting of the Snark". Here we go:
"Then the Banker endorsed a blank cheque (which he crossed),
And changed his loose silver for notes."

Perhaps the Brexit Party is not that silly: They focus on silly voters who cannot handle any agenda with more than one issue. https://t.co/Mq0yjuLlEV
