Complicated read but this REALLY STINKS! And the media still covers it up!-----Review The Dates: Mueller Special Counsel Shaped Prosecution of Obama Lawyer Greg Craig… | The Last Refuge

Review The Dates: Mueller Special Counsel Shaped Prosecution of Obama Lawyer Greg Craig… | The Last Refuge
"There is considerable interest surrounding a federal indictment (full pdf below) of President Obama legal counsel Greg Craig today for lying to federal investigators about his lobbying efforts for Ukraine.  
However, some of the details within the indictment are being conveniently glossed over.  First the DOJ announcement:

WASHINGTON – A federal grand jury today returned an indictment charging Gregory B. Craig... for willfully falsifying and concealing material facts from the FARA Unit, in violation of Title 18, United States Code, Section 1001(a)(1), and for making false and misleading statements to the FARA Unit, in violation Title 22, United States Code, Section 618(a)(2). (more)

OK, so he lied to federal investigators, right?

But what’s missing from the DOJ release, that can only been caught if you actually read the indictment, is that his lies were to Robert Mueller and the special counsel.
Now, take a look at the dates:

Mr. Craig was caught lying on October 19th, 2017.   
Why wasn’t Greg Craig charged by the special counsel at the same time Mueller, Rosenstein and Weissmann were prosecuting Manafort or Flynn?  

Why the delay?

Even more interesting…. why hand it off?  

The Section 1001(a)(1) charge is the same exact charge applied to Michael Flynn a month later.  

Why did Mueller, Rosenstein and Weissmann chose to avoid Greg Craig, pass off his case, then turn around and charge Michael Flynn with the exact same violation?
What we see here is a transparent political effort to enhance the Section 1001(a)(1) charge against Flynn (Team Trump), by hiding the Section 1001(a)(1) against Craig (Team Obama).
How long did Mueller, Rosenstein and Weissmann sit on the Craig evidence before turning it over to the DC prosecutors?  
...Unsealed today, April 11, 2019.
Why?
Politics.
That’s why..."

Mexican-American Trump Supporter Attacked for Wearing MAGA Hat

Mexican-American Trump Supporter Attacked for Wearing MAGA Hat
"A Hispanic Trump supporter was attacked and called a racist at a post office in Chula Vista, Calif., by a fellow customer who was triggered by her “Make America Great Again” hat.

Paloma Zuniga said she was dropping off some packages at the USPS office on Saturday when "this mad woman cursed at me and told me I should be ashamed for wearing that hat" as she walked by.

Zuniga, who is a dual U.S. and Mexican citizen, told PJ Media by email that she then turned on her cellphone and started recording because "we go through this abuse often and I wanted others to see how violent they are while we just mind our own business."

Zuniga said many Hispanics support the president because they believe in the American Dream.

So many hispanics in America love President @realDonaldTrumpbecause we came here looking for the REAL American dream!! Thank you for giving us a voice and representing us as well. We support you Mr. President and your courage to fight for our future.

— Paloma For Trump (@PALOMAFORTRUMP) April 9, 2019

The Trumpophobe, a woman with short-cropped hair and black shorts, reacted very aggressively.

"Don't touch me and don't record me!" she spat. Turning toward the postal worker at the counter, she demanded, "Can you tell her not to record me? That's against the law." She then lunged toward Zuniga and appeared to swipe at her cellphone.

"Don't touch me! Don't touch me," Zuniga cried during the assault.

"I have a right not to be recorded!" the woman exclaimed.

"I have a right not to be harassed! You have no reason to harass me just because of my hat!" cried Zuniga.

The belligerent woman demanded that the clerk call his supervisor.

"It doesn't matter! You have no reason to harass me just because I'm wearing a Trump hat!" Zuniga repeated. "What is wrong with you?!"

"I didn't harass her," the woman told the clerk.

"Yes, you did!" Zuniga exclaimed.

"I saw it," the clerk said..."

The police were called to the scene and Zuniga filed an incident report. She told PJ Media that she has not yet heard back from the San Diego Police Department.

...Paloma, who has nearly 75,000 Facebook followers,  frequently posts memes, videos, and other pro-Trump content to her Facebook page. She also sells MAGA hats like the one she was wearing at the post office on her Facebook page.  She has been photographed with conservative luminaries such as Donald Trump Jr., Joy Villa, Judge Jeanine Pirro, and Diamond and Silk.

Feds charge CEOs, doctors in telemarketing scam that targeted Medicare recipients, costing taxpayers nearly $1 billion - ABC News:

• Two dozen people charged in one of the largest health care scams ever.

"The federal government on Tuesday raided dozens of locations belonging to doctors and medical equipment companies suspected of taking part in a massive telemarketing scam that targeted Medicare recipients and cost taxpayers nearly $1 billion.

...Using television and radio ads, as well as cold calls, the companies promised a "free or low-cost" brace for a patient's back, shoulder, wrist or knee.

Once the scammer obtained a person's insurance information, the companies would bill Medicare...

...The scheme did not go unnoticed by consumers.
In the first three months of the year alone, a government hotline received nearly 1,800 complaints..."

Rush Limbaugh: Barr's 'spying' probe 'monumental' - WND:

“Monumental.” That’s how radio talk-show host Rush Limbaugh is describing Attorney General William Barr’s statement that he believes the Obama administration was “spying” on the 2016 Trump campaign.
“I honestly don’t think that what has happened today has sunk in yet,” Limbaugh said Wednesday on his national broadcast. “For over two years the entire reason for the existence of CNN and the New York Times and all the rest of these media people was to propel, to amplify, to solidify the idea that Trump colluded with Russia and is therefore an illegitimate president and maybe a traitor, for two years. And they did it with certitude.

MIT Says We're Overlooking a Near-Term Solution To Diesel Trucking Emissions - Slashdot

MIT Says We're Overlooking a Near-Term Solution To Diesel Trucking Emissions - Slashdot
"...trucking in the U.S. is still driven by diesel-fueled, compression-ignition (CI), internal combustion engines," reports Ars Technica. 
According to a new paper from MIT researchers, "the best way forward is not to wait for all-electric or hydrogen-powered semis, but to build a plug-in hybrid electric (PHEV) truck with an internal combustion engine/generator that can burn either gasoline or renewable ethanol or methanol." From the report:
Such a setup preserves the range and affordability that's expected of diesel long-haul trucks while significantly reducing the emissions associated with diesel. To boot, it's a near-term solution; no waiting for battery weight to fall or hydrogen refueling stations to be installed.... (The paper notes that this isn't theoretical. A 90-percent reduction in tailpipe NOx from diesel has already been achieved in light-duty gas vehicles and in the heavy-duty Cummins Westport 9 liter natural gas engine.) A flex-fuel gasoline-alcohol engine could also help freight companies achieve "both the lowest air pollution and lowest greenhouse gas emissions when the internal combustion engine operates,"...Read all!

Assange explained-----Clarice Feldman - Who better to unravel a mystery than this guy...

Clarice Feldman - Who better to unravel a mystery than this guy...
"Who better to unravel a mystery than this guy who can do Rubics Cube blindfolded?

Jeffrey Varasano

"Who is behind this move on Assange? 

Deep Staters, Trump loyalists or non-partisan law enforcement? 

Seems pretty likely it's Deep Staters. 

Let me divide this into 6 levels that I see:
Level 1: Assange may have committed crimes, but if he only published leaks, he's no different than the MSM. His leaks were more numerous, but appear unfiltered, true and reveal an important picture that the public deserves and needs to know, and that was being deliberately hidden from them by many corrupt institutions. So his crime is that of a whistle blower with no other avenues available to achieve justice.
Level 2: The MSM publishes leaks frequently but these are highly filtered and very often untrue. Assange is not the propagandists that the MSM are.
Level 3: If Assange solicited or participated in the generation of leaks, rather than just publishing leaks made by others, that's a bit more serious. However, can we really say that the MSM is cleared of that? Don't they goad leakers? Protect them? Pay them? Give them other quid pro quos?

----------------------------------------

Even up thru Level 3, the public interest may lie more in openness than in protecting state secrets. The eternal question of governance, especially self-governance, is "who watches the watchers? Who polices the police?" The constitution provides almost 20 checks and balances of power, most of which have been radically eroded, as the state works 24/7 to bypass any checks, while the people go to their day jobs. We can see how difficult the truth is to disseminate, even after it's exposed, and how difficult it is to even slow, much less reverse, the continuous centralization of power. Therefore, allowing the state to punish a whistleblower is giving the state more power than is prudent. In who's interest was the whistleblower acting? His own? The people? A foreign power? Hard to see how tipping the scale further towards the state is a good thing. Especially when major, major, major crimes from within the state go unpunished and in fact are rewarded. In theory, the state protects us from foreign interests therefore we the people should be on the side of the state. Hard to see how that's true. The deep state seems like a much bigger threat to liberty right now than any particular foreign power. It's not really close, in fact.

----------------------------------------

Level 4A: Hillary pretty much published her server for the Chinese and Russians to steal for the sole purpose of making sure that you and I didn't see her massive bribery and treason. Deleting 30000 emails under supeona adds obstruction of Justice to the charge.
Level 4B: The deep state obviously obstructed Justice for Hillary in too many ways to list here.
Level 5: Obama and the deep state spied on an opposing campaign and tried to influence the 2016 election.
Level 6: The deep state attempted a coup, harrassed people, threw them into solitary and generally acted like any police state. They highly influenced the midterms. Clearly there were crimes here that rise to the level of treason. Watergate x 100."

Every House Democrat but one has co-sponsored a bill requiring schools to allow male athletes who identify as transgender girls to compete on female sports teams.

Among other things, the bill would force public schools to expand female athletic teams to include biological males who identify as transgender girls..."

"To plagiarize T.S. Eliot, April is the cruelest month.
But not for the reasons the poet wrote.
Rather, for all the taxes.
...There are a whole bunch of taxing ideas in the Capitol: on new tires, firearms, water, prescription painkillers, lawyers, car batteries, corporations based on their CEO pay, estates worth more than $3.5 million, oil and gas extraction. 
The list goes on.

New Reuters Poll Proves That Many Americans Can’t Think for Themselves | Intellectual Takeout
"It is generally believed that America is more polarized than ever.
...But a recent survey by Reuters casts a bit of doubt on how well people really know their own minds and understand the political principles they say they adhere to.
It appears that many Americans base their views on whether a particular authority figure holds them.
As Reuters explains, surveyors read a variety of political statements which Donald Trump made on the campaign trail to mixed groups of Republicans and Democrats. 
One group was told that each statement was made by Trump; the other omitted that important detail. In almost every case, Democrat support for the statement decreased when Trump’s name was attached, while Republican support increased.
Government-run health care is a prime example of this.
When asked if government should take care of everyone, 68 percent of Democrats agreed.
Only 33 percent of Republicans did the same.
But when Trump’s name was thrown into the ring, both parties had a sudden change of heart. Democrats in particular exhibited a 20 percent drop in support for government-run health care..."

Did Stefan Halper Try to Frame General Flynn? - The Rush Limbaugh Show

Did Stefan Halper Try to Frame General Flynn? - The Rush Limbaugh Show:

Now, here we go with Svetlana Lokhova. She comes into play. She’s a Russian historian and she was linked by our old buddy Stefan Halper. Stefan Halper was responsible for flooding the news with a story that she was having an affair with Michael Flynn. And this was in the early stages of getting rid of Flynn.
Michael Flynn, of course, supposedly violating the law by having lunch with the Russian ambassador. And that’s all the Russian ambassador did was have lunch with people. Finally got Flynn on supposedly lying to the FBI when even the agents that interviewed him didn’t think that he had lied to them.
Well, now Svetlana Lokhova is speaking out and claims that she was manipulated into entrapping Flynn. Catherine Herridge had the story and then she was on with Tucker Carlson on Thursday. She’s a Russian born academic, the center of attention in 2017 for her past contact with Michael Flynn, the national security adviser for Trump. And she believes that she was used to smear Flynn.

Clean energy job creation numbers artificially inflated - American Experiment

Clean energy job creation numbers artificially inflated - American Experiment
Isaac Orr, Policy Fellow at Center of the American Experiment, released the following statement in response to Clean Energy Economy Minnesota’s job creation claims:
“The moneyed interests behind wind and solar energy like to pat themselves on the back for creating new jobs, but their claims are artificially inflated. 
According to their own report, 76% of the jobs they’re claiming to create already exist in industries that are only loosely related to energy efficiency, like installers of energy-efficient doors and appliances. 
Meanwhile, you never hear about the jobs that will be destroyed when energy prices skyrocket, because employers will have less money available to pay salaries and benefits.”
 Center of the American Experiment recently released a report which used the economic modeling software IMPLAN, which is standard among economists, to find 20,950 jobs would be destroyed by higher electricity prices if Minnesota were to pursue a 50% renewable energy mandate.
