Well we know he's on Trump's side when it comes to the Mueller investigation. But what else? [Our new acting attorney general was listed on the advisory board of a patent marketing company that federal authorities shut down as a fraudulent scheme that bilked aspiring inventors of millions of dollars and intimated that those who publicly complained might have to deal with a “security team” of Israeli ex-special forces operators schooled in Krav Maga.] https://www.thedailybeast.com/matthew-whitaker-acting-attorney-general-once-used-his-justice-bona-fides-to-tout-scam-business?ref=wrap As usual, Trump only hires "the best people." Here's a quote from Whittaker in a press release "A December 2014 company press release quoted Mr. Whitaker as saying: “As a former US Attorney, I would only align myself with a first class organization. World Patent Marketing goes beyond making statements about doing business ‘ethically’ and translates them into action.” And here's another bit from the same article: "World Patent Marketing promotional videos and photos show Mr. Whitaker reviewing invention ideas with the company’s founder, and the FTC included in court exhibits an email from Mr. Whitaker acting on behalf of the company and threatening a customer who complained with potential “serious civil and criminal consequences.” https://www.wsj.com/articles/jeff-sessions-successor-had-advised-company-accused-of-scam-1541638397 I'm surprised he wasn't made Dean of Trump University.

There's this crazy conspiracy being touted on 4chan and other venues about Donald Trump secretly engaging in a battle against the forces of the deep state.. So that all his apparently ethically dubious moves are not what they seem to be. I suspect that riclag believes this nonsense and that's what he's touting. This lunacy goes by the name of QANON. I suspect that this might be what riclag is elliptically referring to. QAnon[a] (/kjuːəˈnɒn/) is a right-wing conspiracy metatheory[1] which began with an October 2017 post on the anonymous imageboard 4chan by someone using the handle Q, a presumably American[2] individual that may have later grown to include multiple individuals[3][4][5] claiming to have access to classified information involving the Trump administration and its opponents in the United States. The theory details a supposed secret conspiracy by an alleged "deep state" against U.S. President Donald Trump and his supporters.[6] The account has falsely accused numerous liberal Hollywood actors, politicians, and high-ranking officials of engaging in an international child sex trafficking ring, and that Trump feigned collusion with Russians to enlist Robert Mueller to join him in exposing the ring and preventing a coup d'état by Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton and George Soros.[7][8][9] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QAnon Note: I changed "now" to "not" in second sentence.

Senate Republicans, including McConnell, have come out supporting the Muller investigation. Pretty sure they have polled this issue and see that stopping it would result in a bloodbath in 2020 at the polls for the GOP. Meanwhile, Trump furiously back-pedaling..."I don't know Matt Whittaker", gesticulate wildly, always a tell for him when he is prevaricating.

Popular Post attrayant Posted November 10, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted November 10, 2018 Tried to watch it, but got this: 2 hours ago, mtls2005 said: Meanwhile, Trump furiously back-pedaling..."I don't know Matt Whittaker", gesticulate wildly, always a tell for him when he is prevaricating. But found the longer clip on YouTube: Like watching a raccoon with a milk carton stuck on its head, that was hilarious and sad at the same time. Number of times Trump claimed not to know anything about Whitaker: 3 Number of times Trump claimed how great Whitaker is: 4 Number of times Trump mentioned that Whitaker worked for Sessions: 3 Trump spoke for ten minutes and said only three things. Later on in the clip, Trump is asked if he expects Whitaker to rein in the Mueller probe, to which trump responds by insulting the reporter. A typical child. When the game doesn't go your way, flip over the game board and walk away while casting personal attacks. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
attrayant Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 Oh my, I should have watched the whole clip before posting. On October 11, Trump spoke to Fox & Friends and said "I know Matt Whitaker..." Trump on Oct 11: "I know Matt Whitaker" Trump on Nov 8: "I don't know Matt Whitaker" If our septuagenarian parents made such statements, we'd be looking through that stack of retirement home brochures we keep in the back of the closet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the other hand, Trump has a Full Boat on the system, plus wild cards keep popping up like the Carter Page Lawsuit, Papadopolus, Manaforts "lack of cooperation" (read no info). The question is not whether there were dirty tricks, but by who. Those documents can blow away a whole bunch of people and both sides know it.

Any Senate Republican still left bent over with their pants around their ankles supporting Trump in this move will voted out of office in the next election. They will be left hanging and fumbling around trying to make up various excuses why Mueller's investigation was terminated. But more likely, Whitaker will subject the Mueller investigation to death by thousand cuts. Whitaker will slowly reduce Mueller's budget, slowly remove Mueller's subpoena powers, slowly remove Muller's ability to indict anyone and then finally after repeatedly stating the Mueller investigation is pointless it will be over in a whimper. He has already setup this plan in mind. 5 Ways Matthew Whitaker, Trump’s Replacement for Sessions, May Already Be Ethically Compromised Maybe funding can be replaced with a "Go Fund Me" campaign if Whitaker turns off the tap.

Berkshire Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 This is the kind of people Trump puts into important positions..... [Inside the Department of Justice, however, the fears are more expansive. Whitaker is seen as a rogue and under-qualified new leader whose impact won’t just be felt on the Mueller probe but throughout the federal government.] [“He’s a <deleted> fool,” one trial attorney inside the department said of the new AG. “He’s spent so much time trying to suck up to the president to get here. But this is a big job. It comes with many responsibilities. He just simply doesn’t have the wherewithal.”] https://www.thedailybeast.com/hes-a-fanding-fool-doj-vets-fear-the-impact-whitaker-will-have-beyond-mueller?ref=wrap 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe this new AG will act with the same rigor that the patriot Sessions couldn't do as a result of recusing himself! On a separate note, did Sessions have access to the final review from Mueller or was it only Rosenstein? What final review? The investigation isn't closed yet. And what does that say about Trump that he's insulting a patriot? Oh right, it's all part of the plan to keep deep state off guard. And it's a good thing that this plan hasn't leaked onto the internet or we'd all be doomed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
