Distracted by the Wall
A further reason for upholding the noisy wall debate is: distraction. During the crowd is kept busy discussing the wall or fence or whatever, the GOP can silently rebuild the state.https://t.co/5TH8PRujfH

Rees-Mogg Wants to Carry On
“…if you are heavily invested in emerging markets with little or no protection of workers & wages; terrified of the incoming EU tax avoidance legislation, an advocate of disaster capitalism and/or poised to make a killing on a tanking pound.” Carry on. https://t.co/S83GLaoXpr

But Mueller — and Congress — could pick up where counterintelligence hits its limits.
By Asha Rangappa [2019-01-13]
The FBI, according to the New York Times, opened a counterintelligence investigation into whether President Trump was secretly working on behalf of Russia after he fired former FBI director James B. Comey in 2017. As a former FBI agent who conducted investigations against foreign intelligence services, I know that the bureau would have had to possess strong evidence that Trump posed a national security threat to meet the threshold for opening such an investigation.

Have a nice Sunday.#Khashoggi

Protect the USA “from within”
