Every year, the internet works worse and worse. I didn't think it was supposed to be affected by old age.

□ [“Newly Declassified Docs Reveal Barack Obama Helped 'Manufacture and Politicize Intelligence' to Create Trump-Russia Collusion Hoax"]

We know.  This has nothing to do with what we were told we'd receive today.  That was another fake, all that happened was the DOJ asked a federal court to release grand jury transcripts used to convict Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell.  That's it.  If the court says no, if the court edits out any relevant information, if the court takes it sweet time to even get around to responding, touch sh*t.

I'm sure the timing is deliberate although there's no obvious connection, but they're putting out evidence that Obama was involved on the fake Russian stuff.  "Involved" is a strong word, he was aware of it.  On December 8, 2016, the President's Daily Brief went from Russia not being able to affect US elections to them suddenly doing something or other and that's horrible.  The next day there was a meeting between lots of high-ranking people.  Obama was not one of them so he couldn't even vote "present."

My guess is someone called Russia, or Russia called them, to make this happen.  Susan Rice, John Kerry, Loretta Lynch, James Clapper or John Brennan seem most likely although 27 names are listed at this meeting and more, like Obama, would have been informed.  For whatever reason, Russia would be the "heavy" and Democrats would have an excuse to oppose Trump and build the 'new world order.'

We saw this with the JFK and RFK files, along with whatever else the Trump administration has finally released.  There's no big shocking reveal.  We may not have known specific details but were all aware that this was basically what happened.  It's not a good sign of what we'll learn when (if) the Epstein files ever come out and then there's the question of what to do about this.

If they don't go after Obama, this falls apart.  But if they do go after Obama, there will be much more justifiable opposition from Democrats, and then there's the issue of what he can be found guilty of.  Treason and sedition, yes, but he was POTUS and it was over eight and a half years ago.  No matter how justified it is, there's no way to make this look like a good move.  I'm not even saying 'don't do it,' but if Trump supporters weren't going along with this Epstein crap, bringing back Russiagate is even worse.

And the people around Trump are going to be obnoxiously loud about this, I don't see any way this can work.  Couldn't you just put out evidence that these people were very close to Jeffrey Epstein?

□ [“Trump Files Lawsuit at Rupert Murdoch, WSJ Reporters, Dow Jones, News Corp After Hit Piece"]

In theory this is more of the same idiocy, Trump running into problems he caused for himself.  The Wall Street Journal had an article that said he sent Epstein a card for his 50th birthday in 2003.  Trump says he did no such thing and didn't wait a moment before suing.  That seems very deliberate.

His suit is going all the way up the line, not just the people at the WSJ doing this but it's parent company, Dow Jones, their parent News Corp and its founder Rupert Murdoch.  I assume it's an option but I don't think that's normal to sue the chairman emeritus over something like this.  Murdoch was certainly familiar with Ghislaine Maxwell, daughter of his fellow British media mogul.  Billionaires like that probably have a lot of connections because that's the life they live.

There's more connections.  The WSJ reporter used to work for Main Justice magazine, founded by the wife of Fusion GPS founder Glenn Simpson, the one who came up with the Russiagate files.  Naturally she did not take her husband's last name and I've long suspected this is why leftists can never get rid of the concept of marriage entirely.  Taking your husband's name makes you easy to identify but the marriage means you can't be called to testify against them.  It's not like any of these people need to be faithful to their spouse.

The wife's father worked for a Little Rock investment company that hired Hillary as their lawyer.  Still more connections.  They've all been willing to make up lies about Trump anyway, they all support Hillary and they're all suddenly obsessed over the Epstein files after ignoring them all these years.  Epstein worked for an investment company too, but maybe that speculation's going a little too far.

Despite all the weeks of criticism, there's a reason I haven't totally turned on Trump over this.  Still think there are better ways to do this that are less time-wasting and annoying, but at least it's something.

□ [“Another Senior Biden Official Pleads the Fifth, Refuses to Testify on Biden’s Health Decline"]

They must be waiting for Biden to die.  The first couple did testify but I think that's it.  Can Trump and his administration do that?  Which people get to ignore Congress?  Pretty sure that when you're a government employee at such high levels, it's not something you can just turn off when you leave.  High-ranking military officers can be called back for the rest of their lives.  For that matter, I'm surprised more people aren't saying this but why don't they just call Biden to testify?

This is another problem the left is desperate to ignore.  They spent all those years pretending Biden wasn't senile and they don't want to change now, even though more and more evidence is coming out that they were lying all along.  The details that have come out about the autopen are quite possibly a criminal offence.  There's no evidence that Biden even knew about it, much less consented, much less had any actual authority for whatever his job was.

So what is Congress going to do about this?  I doubt they have enough votes to put these people in contempt and even if they could, what would that really do?  They are making decisions for someone who is supposed to have access to the military and nuclear weapons so maybe there is a law against defying Congress for that.  Or maybe they could turn to the Supreme Court to decide between the two branches.
