    “DCCC Chair Cancels Fundraiser for Pro-Life Democratic Congressman”

    “After facing backlash from progressive activists and her fellow Democrat colleagues, Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) chairwoman Rep. Cheri Bustos (D., Ill.) canceled a planned fundraiser on Wednesday for Rep. Dan Lipinski (D., Ill.), one of the few remaining pro-life Democrats in Congress.

    Without explicitly stating why she was canceling, Bustos’s announcement echoes the criticism she first received when it became public she intended to host a fundraiser for Lipinski while Republican-controlled states were taking action to limit abortion rights.”

    “”I’m proud to have a 100 percent pro-choice voting record and I’m deeply alarmed by the rapidly escalating attacks on women’s access to reproductive care in several states,” Bustos said in a statement released by the DCCC.”

    “Meadows Nails Schiff Before Declassification of Russia Probe Docs: He Knows Info Will Point Finger at Dems”

    “One of President Donald Trump’s staunch allies in the House, North Carolina Rep. Mark Meadows (R-N.C.), teased the upcoming expected declassification of important documents related to Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia investigation.

    During a Wednesday interview on Fox News’ “Hannity,” Meadows — the top Republican in the influential House Freedom Caucus — proclaimed that he and his Republican colleagues were in “a search for the truth” as they continue to release closed-door transcripts related to Mueller’s investigation into Russian election interference.

    “You got to get to the right time to release some of this stuff,” said the North Carolina Republican. “For us, it’s about a search for the truth.”

    Meadows then predicted the expected upcoming declassification of documents related to the Russia probe would contain information that would “curl your hair” and that Democrats are reacting so “visceral[ly]” because the Democrats — specifically House Intelligence Committee chairman Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) — “know” that the documents will point the “finger” back at the Democrats.”

  3. So it’s un-American to investigate your un-American behavior?

    Riiiiiiiiight….. 🙄

    Someone’s getting nervous. 🙂

    https://dailycaller.com/2019/05/23/schiff-barr-investigation-russia-probe-un-american/

    “California Democratic Rep. Adam Schiff called Attorney General William Barr’s investigation into the origins of the Russia probe “un-American” in a Thursday night tweet.

    “While Trump stonewalls the public from learning the truth about his obstruction of justice, Trump and Barr conspire to weaponize law enforcement and classified information against their political enemies,” Schiff wrote. “The coverup has entered a new and dangerous phase. This is un-American.”

  4. Kizzie,

    Aj is right in that the Chinese do manipulate their currency for trade purposes, but that’s only part of the story.

    Lowering tariffs and free trade have been general policy for over 40 years. Free trade was supposed to generate efficiencies and economies of scale as countries would specialize. Leftist opposed these policies as it left workers unprotected and generated a race to the bottom in terms of labour and environmental standards. Newer agreements are more about regulated trade and corporate rights than free trade.

    However, its impossible to unscrabble an egg. Enacting tariffs to bring back the 1950s isn’t going to work. Instead govts need to enact economic policies to create new jobs in new industries in which the US (or Canada) can dominate……technology, finance, specialty products, etc. Sure enact tariffs but only to protect infant industries not as punishment to other countries…..no one wins a trade war.

  5. Its not unAmerican but it is hypocritical. If you want to be transparent allow Congress to read the Mueller report unredacted, release Trump’s taxes, stop fighting subpoenas, etc.

    Its also amusing to watch the “law and order” party complain about political investigations. The FBI has been investigating leftists for a century with no complaints from Republicans. When you hire an adviser with ties to pro Russian Ukrainians and you borrow massive amounts of money from Deutsch Bank ( the bank of choice for Russian mobsters) , you justifiably attract the attention of the law. You need to ask, why would a police organization dedicated to investigating leftists feel compelled to investigate some Republicans. Russian mob money sets of alarms.

    Says the Canadian…. 🙄

    Let me let you in on some things you seem ignorant of, since you’re not from around here.

    There are members of Congress who have had the opportunity to view a less redacted version. They’ve declined. It’s just BS politics on their part. You’re simply spreading disinformation.

    https://thehill.com/opinion/judiciary/442329-do-democrats-really-want-to-see-the-unredacted-special-counsel-report

    “Despite their demands that Attorney General William Barr release the full unredacted report by special counsel Robert Mueller, Democrats have shown little actual interest in viewing it themselves. In a solid gesture of transparency, Barr allowed a dozen members of Congress, six Democrats and six Republicans, to access the report with most of the redactions removed. While grand jury material had to be redacted to comply with federal requirements, this version of the report does include classified information, materials related to ongoing investigations, and information that could damage reputations of individuals not charged with crimes.

    But prior to the Senate Judiciary Committee hearing with Barr last week, only two lawmakers had taken advantage of the opportunity, and both were Republicans. Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham and Representative Doug Collins, the ranking Republican on the House Judiciary Committee, reviewed the unredacted information, and both said the new details did not change their assessment of the report in any way.”

    Moreover, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, and House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerry Nadler were also granted access to the document. Despite being some of the most vocal critics of the way Barr handled the release of the report, none of them bothered to review the information that they claim is so critical. Not even the top Democrat on the Senate Judiciary Committee, Senator Dianne Feinstein, deigned to read the less redacted version of the report prior to the attorney general testifying in front of her own panel.”

    The only ones who bothered where R’s. So just stop with that nonsense.

    And Congress, nor anyone else, has the right to look at anyone’s else’s taxes, especially when 95% of those complaining are hypocrites who won’t show their own. You guys got nothing, and the pain is coming. 🙂
