Chelsea Handler's vapid video venture

Chelsea Handler is not a funny person but she believes she is and in this day of age when you can identify as anything you want, she's funny. The video below shows you just how her audience identifies her actions as comedic and laugh at her like trained hyenas. 

You would think that someone as gross as Handler wouldn't attack another woman on their appearance--it's lazy, stupid humor, but worse, it's really cruel.

But this is Chelsea Handler we're talking about, not some comedienne.

Handler tweeted a vulgar video mocking White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders's weight and physical appearance. The video is a promotion for her talentless Netflix series.

It's a fake step-by-step makeup tutorial that has comedy writer Fortune Feimster as Ms. Sanders. Even her name sounds fake.

The video is chock full of vulgarity, crude jokes that ridicule things such as Sanders' face, President Trump and Republicans, and illustrates how stupid she is to alienate half the country. 

What a dain bramaged bimho.

"My face is a big, fat biscuit," Feimster says as she applies a lotion. She compares her makeup foundation to the foundation of America: "It's Republican, it's strong, and it's white." Proving the incredible self-loathing liberals unconsciously suffer under as Feimster and Handler are both white.

Feimster also mocks Sanders' physical appearance implying she looks like a man. I will not quote what she said in the video--it's too disgustingly cruel and the fact that Netflix pays her for her so-called comedy is tragic and a horrible exhibit of how devoid of decency our society is becoming.

At least some people weren't keen on the video. One Twitter user wrote:

"Keep it up and everyone will despise you. You are obviously a very unhappy person. Maybe as a modern feminist you should act like a lady for a change."

It's hard to imagine someone who thinks it's funny to have a man urinate on her face is going to act like a lady.

Another tweeted:

"Glad to see how much of a strong feminist you are, by promoting positive body image of other females."

The evil Handler replied to the criticism, "This woman deserves to be taken down. She is pure evil."

Where does she even get that idea? Where is any evidence that Sarah Huckabee Sanders is evil? Because she believes in saying "Merry Christmas?" Because she's religious and her former Arkansas Governor father is also a pastor?

It's easy for leftists to pretend they're on the moral high ground--it's part of their delusion that they're better than the rest of us. It's what their fake feminism is about--defending only those women with the same leftist views, the others can go to hell.

Chelsea Handler really sucks.

Comey pressured to return to Capitol Hill

The Trump administration accused former FBI director James Comey of giving "false testimony" at suggested the DoJ look into the possibility he perjured himself. Republican lawmakers have increased the pressure on him to clarify discrepancies in the public statements he made to Congress.

Not only did Comey go beyond his role as FBI director, acting as judge and jury regarding the Hillary Clinton illegal secret email server, but he exonerated her before he even finished interviewing 17 people including Clinton, in his investigation in the case.

"Since the director's firing, we've learned new information about his conduct that only provided further justification for that firing," White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said, and cited "false testimony" among the examples she gave.

Fox News' John Roberts asked Sanders if she believed Comey perjured himself or at least misled Congress. She replied: "I think that's something probably for DoJ to look at, not me. I'm not an attorney."

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) told Fox News' Catherine Herridge that he wants to bring back Comey to Capitol Hill, to deal with the statements Comey made on his conclusion of the Hillary Clinton email case.

"This doesn't add up, and I smell a rat here," Graham said.

Sen. John Ratcliffe (R-TX) agreed, saying that Comey "absolutely" should be brought back to testify and said in a written statement that "The American people rightfully have enormous concerns about the manner in which the Clinton email investigation was conducted. Recent reports suggesting the outcome of the investigation was predetermined only heighten these concerns."

Both senators were responding to the latest allegations that Comey drafted an "exoneration statement" weeks before he even interviewed the worst presidential candidate in history.

During the September 2016 hearing, Ratcliffe asked Comey whether he made the decision not to recommend criminal charges against Clinton before or after she was interviewed by the FBI and Comey responded, "After."

But when you're dealing with people like Comey and Clinton, "after" may mean 'before the after to which you're referring and I'm responding'.

It was Graham and Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) who revealed claims of an "exoneration statement," and that may put Comey in hot water.

But if history can tell us anything, it seems probable that neither Hillary Clinton nor James Comey will spend even a day in prison.

Joe and Mika rips one at Trump

Frick and Frack

Joe Scarborough and his fiancee Mika Brzesinski co-hosts of MSNBC's "Morning Joe" ripped one. This time it was over the White House regarding a lawsuit that accuses Fox News of fabricating a story with President Trump's approval.

"We're in a really bad place," Scarborough said, referring to either the MSNBC studio or the USA. "They lied."

A lawsuit filed Tuesday morning by a Fox News contributor alleges that Fox News worked with a Trump donor to create a story about the murder of former DNC staffer Seth Rich, with the direct approval of President Trump.

Scarborough, who, according to my anonymous source [aka Vinny Boombots], allegedly was rubbing on Mika's leg as he spoke, mocked former Press Secretary Sean Spicer by showing a video of him denying any knowledge of the story in question followed by acknowledging that he confirmed meeting key figures in the lawsuit.

Which proves nothing.

Brzezinski, whose IQ dwarfs that of a can of Silly Putty, offered advice to Sarah Huckabee Sanders, Spicer's replacement: "If you lie, it does come back."

Ask yourself how she knows that.

Rod Wheeler, a Fox News contributor, said in the lawsuit that the network and wealthy Trump supporter wanted to shift attention away from Russia. They created the story to help Trump's narrative and claims Trump wanted the story published "immediately."

The suit says that an article by Malia Zimmerman was written to "establish that Seth Rich provided WikiLeaks with the DNC emails to shift the blame from Russia."

Jay Wallace, president of Fox News, provided a statement to TheWrap: 

"The accusation that FoxNews.com published Malia Zimmerman's story to help detract from coverage of the Russia collusion issue is completely erroneous. The retraction of this story is still being investigated internally and we have no evidence that Rod Wheeler was misquoted by Zimmerman. Additionally, FOX News vehemently denies the race discrimination claims in the lawsuit--the dispute between Zimmerman and Rod Wheeler has nothing to do with race."

The "Morning Joe" leftists called the situation "sick."

Scaramucci's vulgar language makes Trump look bad

Photo: Reuters/Carlos Barria

If I used even a smidgeon of the vulgarity the White House Communications Director Anthony Scaramucci used regarding Reince Priebus Google would shut down this blog. Even if they didn't shut me down you probably would go elsewhere to get your White House information and I wouldn't blame you.

Mooch, as he likes to be called, even made fun of Senior Adviser Steve Bannon in the same interview with Ryan Lizza, writing for the New Yorker magazine. 

In the story published on Thursday, Mooch asks Lizza to tell him who leaked the details of a dinner Trump attended and he goes on to accuse Priebus of being the leaker.

"Reince is a f***ing paranoid schizophrenic, a paranoiac," Mooch told Lizza in a Wednesday evening phone call.

"I fired one guy the other day. I have three or four people I'll fire tomorrow," Mooch said. "I'll get to the person who leaked that to you. Reince Priebus--if you want to leak something--he'll be asked to resign very shortly."

He went on, doing an impersonation of Priebus: "Let me leak the f***ing thihng and see if I can c**k block these people the way I c**k blocked Scaramucci for six months."

Mooch said that unlike Bannon, he's not interested in inflating his profile to the media.

"I'm not Steve Bannon; I'm not trying to suck my own c**k," he said. "I'm not trying to build my own brand off the f***ing strength of the president. I'm here to serve the country."

At least he didn't say he was here to serve the 'f***ing country'.

He accused Priebus of leaking his financial disclosure to the media calling it a 'felony,' but the information was public record, so he was wrong.

"I've called the FBI and the Department of Justice," he said.

"What I want to do is I want to f***ing kill all the leakers and I want to get the president's agenda on track so we can succeed for the American people," he said, and told Lizza that he believed Priebus would resign soon.

Mooch ended the call with Lizza, telling him he needed to "start tweeting some s**t to make this guy crazy."

Interestingly, Scaramucci didn't deny any of the comments he made. "I sometimes use colorful language," he said. "I will refrain in this arena but not give up the passionate fight for @realDonaldTrump's agenda."

Then later on Thursday, Mooch made it sound like it was all Lizza's fault stating that he "made a mistake in trusting in a reporter. It won't happen again."

But whether the reporter was told that it was "off the record" or not, Scaramucci still displayed the unprofessional vulgarity and even homophobia the LBGTQ would say, that should render him wrong for this job.

We all remember what Trump said a few years ago about grabbing women by their genitalia. This echoes the same negativity and likely problems Trump will have in the future. 

Lizza spoke on the Crappy News Network (CNN) saying, "It's not a matter of trust, it's a matter of we as journalists trying to explain who these people are to the American people and when you do an on the record interview with someone, its standard operating procedure that the interview gets reported."

And you really can't disagree with that. Imagine if you, as a journalist, was privy to Sacarmucci's private rants, with all of its anger and vulgarity. If you didn't report it, you'd be guilty of journalistic malpractice.

White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders defended Scaramucci saying that he gets passionate about his job. 

"This is a guy who sometimes uses colorful--and in many circles, probably not appropriate--language. And he's very passionate about the president, the president's agenda and I think he may have let that get the best of him in that conversation," she said.

That wasn't 'colorful' language, it was highly vulgar and totally inappropriate and cannot be justified, in spite of Sanders' intelligent handling of it.

One White House official leaked concern to Fox News saying, "This is getting out of hand. I am honestly getting concerned for my safety in the office tomorrow. This type of behavior is unbelievable. Working in the White House and something like that is said, it is a disgrace."

Sadly, I agree with the leaker.

Daily Beast hack apologizes for sexist tweet attacking Huckabee Sanders

The Daily Cesspool Beast "writer" who called White House Press a "butch queen" on Twitter Friday got too many negative responses that forced him to apologize for being a dickweed.

Ira Madison, an uncouth culture writer issued his apology on Twitter on Monday.

Madison, who evidently hates women and gays has written for Gentleman's Quarterly (in spite of his having no idea what a gentleman is), and New York Magazine.

The weasel tweeted:

"Apologies to Sarah H. Sanders for the ill-judged joke tweeted Fri, deleted this AM. I didn't mean to offend anyone & I'm sorry that I did!"

 Twitter users kept calling him out anyway:

"Apologies are great, but not doing in the first place is even better. Try to put your nice cap on next time."

Others, like myself, weren't buying in to his heartfelt sorrow over his bile, and using the term 'butch queen' refers to a gay man who's "neither extremely feminine, nor extremely masculine and can easily portray both mannerisms."

Another tweet read: 

"So sexist and misogynistic comments are acceptable as long as they're aimed at Conservative women. Thanks for clarifying those rules."

Dan Gainor, vice president of business and culture at the Media Research Center, spoke to Fox News. 


"Since the Daily Beast says it values 'an inclusive culture, committed to the public good,' I assume this is the last time Ira Madison III will be writing for them. It goes to a larger point. Liberals get away with personal attacks that would ruin the careers of people on the right. This is demented, but watch how little attention it gets from the national press."


Ira Madison III is a brave man to attack a woman from afar, using Twitter, "The Angry Folks' Social Media Platform." 

The Daily Beast was too cowardly to comment but that's to be expected.

Leftists immediately attack Sarah Huckabee Sanders

It didn't take more than a New York microsecond for the liberals to criticize White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders. She is only the third woman ever to be appointed to that post since it began in 1929 but that didn't stop the 'identification party' who pretends to support women and minorities.

Predictably, a number of sexist twits on Twitter tweeted about her physical appearance, which should tell you everything you need to know about them.

"sarah huckabee sanders reminds me of someone that would have pushed me into a locker in middle school" --Talia Lavin (@chick_in_kiev)

I believe Talia Levin was pushed into school lockers many times over in middle school just for being a scumcrumpet. She probably got her fair share of atomic wedgies as well.

If not, she probably deserved them.

"Sarah Huckabee Sanders looks like every woman eating lobster on a cruise ship" --Damien Fahey (@DamienFahey).

Damien evidently spent a lot of time checking out people's plates on cruise ships--maybe it turns him on. But what's really clear is that Damien is a sexist pig, the kind that his liberal goombahs like to label conservatives.

And if Sarah reminds him of "every woman eating lobster" that means she is a good representative of every woman, as opposed to Hillary Clinton who is a good representative of someone who, by being a woman is her biggest accomplishment.

"I think it's, certainly professionally, one of the greatest honors that any person could ever have, to work in any capacity within this building," Sarah said. "And to get to do that up here, in such a public way and speak on behalf of the president is absolutely an honor.

An honor that Talia Levin and Damien Fahey will never know as they ooze envy and sexism in their words.

But it's Mediaite that attacked Huckabee Sanders simply because she's a conservative. They posit that she and the females of "Trumpland" hurt women:

"How Sarah Sanders and the Women of Trumpland Hurt Women (Column by @KylieTCheung)

The article cites Kellyanne Conway, Betsy DeVos and Ivanka Trump claiming the "women of Trumpland all, in some way or another, use their platforms to hurt other women."

"The unfortunate reality is that very few women will ever have the influence of Hillary Clinton, who uses her status as former First Lady and former Secretary of State to sell her influence by securing large donations for her so-called "foundation."

Wait!

Cheung didn't write that. No, the leftist wrote: "The unfortunate reality is that very few women will ever have the influence of Ivanka, who uses her status as First Daughter to promote her brand while exploiting the working mothers of her overseas factories."

Socialists always scream "exploiting" when people who would otherwise starve are given low-paying jobs in which they can eventually grow as evidenced in South Korea, for example.

Cheung blathered on: "Few will ever have the influence of DeVos, who uses her position as education secretary to convene with groups that bully rape victims."

What? Cheung doesn't explain what 'bully rape' means nor give actual examples. DeVos didn't need this job--she is an incredibly wealthy woman and believes strongly in charter schools because they work, in spite of their non-union status. Actually, because of their non-union status.

"And few will ever command the audiences of Conway and Sanders, who use their platforms to deny Trump sexism."

They don't deny Trump's past and never excused it. Cheung must have confused them with the Bill Clinton-era media and his supporters. She must have also confused Conway and Sanders with liberals like Hillary Clinton who support gender-selective abortions that weed out girl babies. Both Conway and Sanders are pro-life.

Supporters of Sarah Huckabee Sanders also tweeted and took swipes at the liberals who insulted her:

"Actually it's feminists who hurt women by their complete obsession with being offended" --Michelle oh (@mkohlrogge)

Another tweeted:

"It is official-Liberals belong to the snarky mean girls club. What hypocrites as the next thing out of their mouth is "anti-bullying" --Linda white (@lwhite3540)

Like the Antifa movement that claims to be against fascism, the hypocrisy of these liberals is just as palpable.

POTUS full frontal attack tweeting

President Trump went on a free-associative Twitter rant Saturday morning. He attacked Hillary Clinton, the New York Times, and good old Hillary Clinton as well as others he likes to attack.

Trump first tweeted about the Washington Post story where anonymous sources alleged Attorney General Jeff Sessions spoke to a Russian ambassador during the 2016 presidential campaign about policy issues and other things. 

My source, who goes by the pseudonym Vinny Boombots, said that the Post's source is Hillary Clinton and that she admitted to him that she made the whole thing up because she's angry over her loss to a television personality.

Trump tweeted:

"A new INTELLIGENCE LEAK from the Amazon Washington Post, this time against A.G. Jeff Sessions. These illegal leaks, like Comey's, must stop!"

The Post wrote, based on unnamed current and former U.S. officials, that Sessions, a then-Trump adviser, had "substantive" discussions about policy and other issues with Servey Kislyak, the Russian Ambassador.

Mr. Boombots explained that Hillary was the unnamed current and former U.S. official(s) but said she would deny it if asked.

Follow-up Trump tweet:

"So many people are asking why isn't the A.G. or Special Council looking at the many Hillary Clinton or Comey crimes. 33,000 e-mails deleted?"

Trump was apparently upset over the myriad investigations into whether his associates colluded with Russia to win the presidential election over Clinton rather than looking into Clinton's obvious relationship with Russia when she was Secretary of State and her husband got paid $500,000 for a speech he gave to Russia's Renaissance Bank, which was to be sanctioned for human-rights abuses, but was spared sanctioning after Bill's speech.

Hmm.

So Trump tweeted about that:

"What about all of the Clinton ties to Russia, including Podesta Company, Uranium deal, Russian Reset, big dollar speeches etc."

Like a good dad, Trump sent out a defense tweet for Donald Jr. who's in the middle of the Russia meddling-collusion debacle after he and other Trump associates met with a Russian lawyer in June 2016. She promised Jr. some dirt on Hillary.

Trump tweeted:

"My son Donald openly gave his e-mails to the media & authorities whereas Crooked Hillary Clinton deleted (& acid washed) her 33,000 e-mails!"

On Friday, Trump named Anthony Scaramucci as his new White House communications director and demoted Sean Spicer from the post. Spicer honorably resigned. 

Sarah Huckabee Sanders has now officially become the new White House Press Secretary. Her job is one of the toughest in the Trump administration.

Another Trump tweet attacked The New York Times and its "sick agenda" regarding national security and that it "foiled" a U.S. strike on ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi:

"The Failing New York Times foiled U.S. attempt to kill the single most wanted terrorist, Al-Baghdadi. Their sick agenda over National Security."

The specific attack Trump was referring to and why he attacked The Times was unclear.

Secretary of Defense Jim Mattis said on Friday that he still believes Baghdadi is still alive. Knowing Mattis, I wouldn't rule it out.

Justice Department spokeswoman Sarah Isgur Flores responded to The Washington Post story Friday regarding the Sessions piece and said, "Obviously I cannot comment on the reliability of what anonymous sources describe in a wholly uncorroborated intelligence intercept that the Washington Post has not seen and that has not been provided to me.

Vinny Boombots

"But the Attorney General stands by his testimony from just last month before the Senate Intelligence Committee when he specifically addressed this and said that he 'never met with or had any conversations with any Russians or any foreign officials concerning any type of interference with any campaign or election.'"

Vinny Boombots agrees with Ms. Flores adding that "The only person I know of who would spread vicious rumors about Jeff Sessions would be Eric Holder or maybe Kamala Harris. Holder onnaconna he's jealous Sessions has his job, and  Kamala Harris  onnaconna she wants to make Trump's administration look bad when she plans to run for president in 2020. 

"Six on one hand . . . half a dozen on the other. You know what I'm sayin'?"

Trump goes after DNC and Hillary for 'collusion'

President Trump is a fighter. If you insult him he will insult you back twice as hard. 

On Wednesday, the White House went on the offense over the fecestorm in which his son, Donald Jr., met with Russian lawyer Natalia Veselnitskaya amid the presidential campaign.  She was alleged to have 'dirt' on Hillary Clinton and Donald Jr. thought it would be an interesting chance to do some opposition research on the woman with the sex-driven husband. 

The President decided to turn the tables on them by alleging the Democratic National Committee and the Clintons are the parties involved in 'collusion.'

Deputy White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders had an off-camera briefing that highlighted DNC and Hillary ties to foreign governments including Russia and Ukraine.

"If we're looking at Russia relationships with anybody, it would be directly with the Clintons," Huckabee Sanders said. She cited examples of a Bill Clinton speech he gave in Russia which netted him $500,000 and reports of then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton selling what she described as "a third of the world's uranium to Russia."

In an interview with the Christian Broadcasting Network scheduled to air this Thursday, President Trump said that he believes there are "many reasons" Putin would prefer Hillary Clinton in office over him.

"We are the most powerful country in the world and we are getting more and more powerful because I'm a big military person [with very, very big hands]. As an example, if Hillary had won, our military would be decimated. Our energy would be much more expensive. That's what Putin doesn't like about me. And that's why I say why would he want me?" Trump said, leaving out the 'why' explanation.

Huckabee Sanders spoke about other alleged examples of Democrat 'collusion' with a foreign government.

"If there's been any evidence of collusion in 2016 actually happening, it would have been between the DNC and the Ukrainian government," she said.

She was referring to a Politico report from January that cited a meeting between Ukrainian government officials who allegedly tried to help Clinton undermine Trump by publicly questioning his fitness for office and shared damaging information on Trump and his advisers with Clinton allies.

The Politico investigation exposed the fact that a Ukrainian-American DNC operative, Alexandra Chalupa worked in the Clinton White House, but ironically, never worked for Taco Bell. Chalupa met with officials in the Ukrainian Embassy in Washington and tried to expose ties between Paul Manafort and Russia. 

Manafort soon after resigned.

On Wednesday morning, Trump tweeted and ripped Hillary a 'new one.' He ripped Clinton over what he called a double standard for their respective associates' alleged cooperation with foreign governments in the presidential campaign.

He said the Democrats used false information from Russia to attack him and his campaign.

"Our goal is to be as transparent as humanly possible and put every bit of information at the forefront," Huckabee Sanders said. "We are willing to cooperate with anybody looking into this matter."

Tweet

Trump goes full frontal exclamation point!

Going full exclamation point President Trump unloaded on Hillary over the obvious double standard after reports that Democrats also received foreign help in the election last year.

Trump's attack on Hillary and fellow Democrats Wednesday was over what he described as a double standard for their respective associates' alleged coordination with foreign governments in the campaign.

He used his Twitter account Wednesday to the Washington Times article outlining how Democrats used false information from Russia to attack him and his campaign.

Mr. Trump tweeted:

"@WashTimes states 'Democrats have willfully used Moscow disinformation to influence the presidential election against Donald Trump."

He then added: 

"Why aren't the same standards placed on the Democrats.  Look what Hillary Clinton may have gotten away with. Disgraceful!"

The Washington Tomes report refers back to the questionable dossier, written by Christopher Steele, a former British intelligence agent. It was allegedly distributed by Fusion GPS, the Democrat-funded opposition research firm, and Steele was allegedly paid by a Clinton supporter. The FBI eventually got their hands on the dossier.

The White House and Trump supporters also cited a meeting between a DNC consultant and officials at the Ukrainian Embassy in Washington, D.C., last year.

"If you are looking for an example of a campaign coordinating with a foreign country or a foreign source, look no further than the DNC, which actually coordinated opposition research with the Ukrainian Embassy," White House Deputy Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said Monday.

"This is not an accusation. That is an on-the-record action that they took," she said.

But let's be honest with ourselves; both sides of the aisle are filled with hypocrites.

Trump may back Palestinian 'self-determination'

"We can forgive the Arabs for killing our children. We cannot forgive them for forcing us to kill their children. We will only have peace with the Arabs when they love their children more than they hate us." --Golda Meir

Washington -- President Trump plans a Middle East trip this month and is expected to express his support for Palestinian "self-determination," a senior aide said Friday. This suggests the president is agreeable to a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, although the White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer as well as the Deputy White House Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders and Vice President Mike Pence have not commented on this having learned the hard way not to jump the gun before President Trump has had time to change his mind.

The comment by H.R. McMaster, the U.S. national security adviser came nine days after Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas visited the White House and was offered delicious chocolate cake that was out of this world.

During the meeting, Trump vowed to seek a tremendous and beautiful historic peace deal, but did not actually verbalize a recommitment to the eventual goal of Palestinian statehood, a long-existing U.S. policy. 

For his part, Abbas did not publicly discuss the ultimate goal of the Palestinian people to annihilate the Jewish State along with the Jews living there.

Regarding President Trump's first foreign trip, McMaster said that he will make his first stop in Saudi Arabia, where, as Sean Hannity frequently reminds us, women can't drive, can't vote and need a male escort to leave the home. Trump will try encouraging Arab and Muslim partners to take "bold new steps" to confront the Islamic State, Iran, al-Qaeda and Syrian dictator Bashar al-Assad's government "who perpetuate chaos and violence" [in the name of Allah].

Trump is leaving next week and will also stop in Israel and Rome. The trip is intended to "broadcast a message of unity" by visiting holy sites of Christianity and Judaism [that have not yet been destroyed by Islamists] and he also plans to visit Islamic sites.

When Trump meets with Israeli and Palestinian leaders (scheduled separately to avoid violence) it will be closely observed for signs that he has a cohesive strategy to revive negotiations that have been stalled for years. Anyone with a brain is skeptical of Trump's chances of brokering a peace accord when other presidents before him could not.

Trump also will meet with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to "reaffirm America's unshakeable bond to the Jewish state" and with Abbas to "express his desire for dignity and self-determination for the Palestinians," McMaster said.

Trump will likely meet with Abbas in the little town of Bethlehem and with Netanyahu elsewhere. The president sparked international criticism in February when, in a news conference with Netanyahu, backed away from longstanding U.S. commitment to Palestinian statehood, saying he'd leave it up to Israel and the Palestinians to decide.

Like that would work.

When McMaster was asked if Trump would bring Netanyahu and Abbas together in the same room for a 'sit-down' he said that it would be up to the president and the other two leaders. 

What do you think? Should they be in the same room?

Trump threatens to cancel press briefings

In an atomic Tweet Bombing on Friday, President Trump warned his newly-fired FBI director not to leak anything about their conversations and also suggested that he might cancel future press briefings over the firing of Comey. 

"As a very active President with lots of things happening, it is not possible for my surrogates to stand at podium with perfect accuracy!" Trump exclaimed in writing. "Maybe the best thing to do would be to cancel all future "press briefings" and hand out written responses for the sake of accuracy???"

Three question marks? That's like 'very, very, very.'

In response to a private dinner conversation between Trump and Comey as reported by The New York Times, Trump warned the former FBI director: "James Comey better hope that there are no 'tapes' of our conversations before he starts leaking to the press!"

White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer said that Trump fired Comey after he received a written recommendation (written the same day as the firing) from Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein as well as a letter from Attorney General Jeff Sessions. The Rosenstein memo citied Comey's mishandling of Hillary Clinton's private illegal email server as the main reason for his termination. 

"That was a DoJ decision," Spicer said.

Then Vice President Pence got into the act as he spoke at the Capitol on Wednesday and also pointed to Rosenstein and Sessions for the firing.

"Let me be very clear that the President's decision to accept the recommendation of the deputy attorney general and the attorney general to remove Director Comey as the head of the FBI was based solely and exclusively on his commitment to the best interests of the American people and to ensuring that the FBI has the trust and confidence of the people of this nation," Pence said.

Then Deputy Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders got into the act saying that the president was merely following the guidance of his top advisers.

"I think it's real simple," Sanders told MSNBC. "The Deputy Attorney General . . . made a very strong recommendation. The president followed it and he made a quick and decisive action to fire James Comey."

And finally came the spoiler, President Trump himself. In an interview with NBC, he said that Comey was a "showboat" and "grandstander." He then claimed that he had made up his mind to fire Comey long ago, no matter what Rosenstein and Sessions told him.

"I was going to fire regardless of recommendation," Trump said rather ungrammatically. 

Trump's interview aired less than an hour before Sanders led the White House press briefing, with reporters upset that what they were led to believe on Wednesday was not what Trump said on Thursday. She denied the information she received was inaccurate and claimed the narratives matched closely and added that the White House wasn't trying to blame Rosenstein for Comey's firing.

Fodder for the Democratic machine. The leftists want a thorough review of what happened.

It is totally the president's prerogative to fire an FBI director--it was done before, by Bill Clinton, no less. Although they are to serve for ten years, they serve at the pleasure of the president in office.

Simply put, the Democrats are trying to make something out of nothing, other than Trump being Trump.
