Mueller witness is convicted pedophile - AP | 15 March 2018 | How did George Nader -- Lebanese-American businessman, globe-trotting "fixer," convicted child molester -- get caught up in special counsel [Deep State scum-bag] Robert Mueller's investigation? The answer, it seems, can be found in the shadows, where Nader has long operated. His long history included intrepid back-channel mediation between Israel and Arab countries -- and a 15-year-old pedophilia conviction in Europe that has not been previously reported.
FBI's Andrew McCabe is fired a little more than 24 hours before he could retire | 16 March 2018 | Attorney General Jeff Sessions late Friday night fired former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe, a little more than 24 hours before McCabe was set to retire. Sessions announced the decision in a statement just before 10 p.m., noting that both the Justice Department Inspector General and the FBI office that handles discipline had found "that Mr. McCabe had made an unauthorized disclosure to the news media and lacked candor -- including under oath -- on multiple occasions." He said based on those findings and the recommendation of the department’s senior career official, "I have terminated the employment of Andrew McCabe effective immediately." McCabe has been fighting vigorously to keep his job, and on Thursday, he spent nearly four hours inside the Justice Department pleading his case.
Former FBI deputy director fired just days before retirement to kick in | 16 March 2018 | Former FBI deputy director Andy McCabe was fired Friday from the federal government, just two days before he was set to retire, Attorney General Jeff Sessions announced in a statement late Friday night. Nearly 24 hours earlier, McCabe was inside the Justice Department making the case to keep his job until Sunday when he officially qualifies for retirement benefits. His firing means his full pension -- built after nearly 22 years in government -- is in jeopardy. In his statement Sessions said: "After an extensive and fair investigation and according to Department of Justice procedure, the Department's Office of the Inspector General (OIG) provided its report on allegations of misconduct by Andrew McCabe to the FBI's Office of Professional Responsibility (OPR)."
Andrew McCabe's Response to Being Fired Two Days Before His Retirement | 16 March 2018 | Attorney General Jeff Sessions announced on Friday evening that he had fired former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe, two days before McCabe's retirement. Sessions said he made the decision after the Department of Justice's Office of the Inspector General and the FBI's Office of Professional Responsibility reviewed McCabe's conduct during the FBI’s investigation into Hillary Clinton. McCabe responded in a lengthy statement, decrying his firing as an attempt "to taint the FBI, law enforcement, and intelligence professionals more generally." Read his full statement here.
FBI disciplinary office recommends firing former deputy director Andrew McCabe | 14 March 2018 | The FBI office that handles employee discipline has recommended firing the bureau's former deputy director over allegations that he authorized the disclosure of sensitive information to a reporter and misled investigators when asked about it -- though Justice Department officials are still reviewing the matter and have not come to a final decision, a person familiar with the case said. The recommendation from the FBI's Office of Professional Responsibility is likely to add fuel to the political fire surrounding former deputy director Andrew McCabe, who abruptly stepped down from his post earlier this year but technically remained an FBI employee. McCabe was hoping to retire in days, when he becomes eligible for his full benefits...President Trump has long made McCabe a particular target of his ire, and the recommendation to fire the former No. 2 FBI official could give him new ammunition.
New Text Messages Reveal FBI Agent Was Friends With Judge in Flynn Case --Congressional members say DOJ stonewalling information on FBI texts | 16 March 2018 | Newly redacted text messages discovered by congressional investigators reveal that an embattled FBI agent at the center of the Russia investigation controversy was close friends with a District of Columbia judge who recused himself from the criminal case over former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn, congressional members said, and text documents show. The never-before-seen text messages, which were a part of the texts given to Congress by the Department of Justice, show that FBI Special Agent Peter Strzok and his paramour FBI attorney Lisa Page discussed Strzok's relationship with U.S. District Court Judge Rudolph Contreras, who presided over a Dec. 1, 2017, hearing where former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn pleaded guilty to lying to the FBI. Strzok was removed from Robert Mueller's Special Counsel's Office last year after anti-Trump text messages between him and his FBI agent lover were discovered by the DOJ's Inspector General Michael Horowitz. But on Dec. 7, without warning, Judge Rudolph Contreras was removed as the presiding judge on Flynn's case.
Paul Manafort asks judge to dismiss criminal charges against him | 15 March 2018 | Paul Manafort has asked a federal judge in DC to dismiss the five criminal charges against him, arguing that special counsel Robert Mueller had no right to indict him for work done before he joined the Trump campaign as chairman in 2016. "Those issues simply have no connection to the alleged coordination with the Russian government or the 2016 presidential election," Manafort's lawyer wrote in a motion to dismiss the case filed Wednesday. Though Manafort's team acknowledged that the Justice Department had told Mueller to prosecute any criminal action he discovers while investigating possible Russian collusion, "It is a blank check the special counsel has cashed, repeatedly," Manafort's filing said.

UK blocks Russia's draft UN Security Council statement on Skripal poisoning case | 15 March 2018 | The UK has blocked a UN Security Council statement drafted by Russia, which called for an "urgent and civilized" investigation into the poisoning of former double agent Sergei Skripal in Salisbury. "The Russia-proposed March 14 project of a short and fact-based UNSC press statement calling for an urgent and civilized investigation into a resonant chemical incident in Britain in line with OPCW standards was crudely blocked by this country's representatives under a politicized pretext," Russian UN mission spokesman Fedor Strzhizhovskiy said. The proposed draft, unlike earlier statements by the UK and the US, did not assign blame for the incident, instead, it urged "all member states concerned to consult and cooperate" in the investigation as prescribed by the Chemical Weapons Convention.
Russian envoy to UN asks about Salisbury case, says Moscow ready for open probe | 14 March 2018 | Russia's envoy to the UN has demanded proof of Russia's involvement in the incident in Salisbury. He also asked members of UNSC to think who would benefit from these accusations. Vasily Nebenzya said the UK dragged this case to the UN rather than addressing a relevant international body in the Hague because it is scared of a professional probe...He said that the letter from Theresa May included unjustified accusations that Moscow had something to do with the use of toxic agents in Salisbury. "We were given 24 hours to confess to a crime," he said. "We do not speak the language of ultimatums."

US Appeals Court Upholds Texas's Ban on 'Sanctuary Cities' | 13 March 2018 | A federal appeals court Tuesday upheld the bulk of Texas's crackdown on "sanctuary cities" in a victory for the Trump administration as part of its aggressive fight against measures seen as protecting immigrants who are in the U.S. illegally. The ruling by a three-judge panel of the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in New Orleans allows Texas to enforce what critics call the toughest state-level immigration measure since Arizona passed what critics called a "Show Me Your Papers" law in 2010. The law allows police officers to ask people during routine stops whether they're in the U.S. legally and threatens sheriffs with jail time for not cooperating with federal immigration authorities.
NOT TRUE!
Ohio student suspended for staying in class during walkouts | 16 March 2018 | An Ohio high school student says he tried to remain nonpolitical during [the U.S. Deep State/corporate-funded] school walkouts over gun violence and was suspended for a day because he stayed in a classroom instead of joining protests or the alternative, a study hall. Hilliard senior Jacob Shoemaker says school isn't the place for politics, and he wasn't taking sides Wednesday...Scott Shoemaker says some people thought his son was suspended for walking out, and angry comments accumulated, including some that mistook Scott for the principal. He says he also got a couple death threats and had to consider switching phone numbers.
HERE'S WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENED:
HERE'S WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENED:
An Ohio high school student has found himself at the center of political controversy after an online post about his suspension for staying in class during the national student school walkout went viral.
But that story isn’t exactly true.
Jacob Shoemaker, a senior at Hilliard Davidson High School in Hilliard, Ohio, was in fact suspended. But not because he chose not to join his classmates and the hundreds of thousands of students across the country who walked out of their classrooms to protest gun violence in the wake of a Florida school shooting that left 17 people dead. It was because he didn’t go to a designated area of the school where the non-protesters were supposed to be, and instead stayed by himself in a classroom.
[Encouraged and glorified by the Deep State,] Thousands of students walk out of school in nationwide gun violence protest | 14 March 2018 | Tens of thousands of students across the country walked out of their classrooms Wednesday and onto athletic fields and city streets as part of a massive national protest on gun violence spurred by a Florida high school shooting a month ago that left 17 dead. The walkouts, which came 10 days before a march on Washington that could draw hundreds of thousands of students to the nation's capital, are unprecedented in recent American history, not seen in size or scope since student protests of the Vietnam War in the late 1960s. [Yes, the difference being the students in the 1960s were protesting the U.S. Deep State/corporate war machine; the snowflakes in the 2010s are protesting at the behest of the U.S. Deep State/corporate war machine. --LRP]
Now Inclusion Means Exclusion | 14 March 2018 | Inclusion is merely the new soft, cottony term for marginalizing, shutting down, and kicking out the disfavored...The question on everyone's mind was: How can it be that "free speech" and "inclusion" are opposites? The whole point of the First Amendment, in its clauses on both religion and expression, is to protect the right to think and express unpopular, minority, even radical views...All over the country, especially at schools, "inclusion" is being used to push people and ideas out the door. At NYU, after professor of liberal studies [CLG Founder] Michael Rectenwald mocked hypersensitivity about Halloween costumes, he was castigated by the department's Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Working Group, then pushed the same day to go on sudden leave in mid-semester.
