thegatewaypundit--2020-02-22--Maxine Waters Says Crips, Bloods ‘In The ‘Hood’ Have More Integrity Than Trump

Maxine Waters Says Crips , Bloods ‘ In The ‘ Hood ’ Have More Integrity Than Trump Another day , another wacky worldview from Mad Maxine .
Rep. Maxine Waters , 81 , claims violent street gangs in California have more integrity than President Trump .
“ I have worked in some of the toughest communities , ” The California Democrat said when asked about the president in a recent interview with Showtime ’ s “ Desus & Mero.
” “ I ’ ve worked with gangs .
I ’ ve worked with Crips , I ’ ve worked with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ integrity in many of these young people in the ‘ hood than this man has.
” The career politician — now in her 15th term — also said Trump is a “ street player ” who has “ flirted with gangsters.
” “ This is a flawed character , and I ’ ve never seen anything like this , ” Waters said .
“ This country can not tolerate another four years of him.
” The Crips and the Bloods are rival gangs in the Los Angeles and other urban centers in California @ @ @ @ @ @ @ years .
One year the gangs left 800 dead , but they ’ re as active as ever .
Just last Wednesday , rapper Pop Smoke was murdered by rival gang members over his ties to the Crips .
Waters last coocoo comment came last week when she said her home state should have “ more say ” in the Democratic Party ’ s primaries because they have “ fancy ” big-money parties in Beverly Hills .
“ As you know , we have candidates who fly out to Los Angeles from everywhere @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Democrat told CNBC .
“ As a matter of fact , it had gotten so that you would have two , three , four at a time in Beverly Hills having dinners .
And some of our contributors who are very rich were holding , you know , fancy parties , trying to accommodate the request for donations and contributions .
And so , you know , the conclusion , the thinking is that if we are supplying tremendous dollars to candidates , we ought to have more say.
” California ’ s @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Super Tuesday — after a handful of other states hold caucuses and primaries .
But Waters thinks California should be front and center at all times .
“ Beyond that , a lot of people have come to the conclusion that it should not simply be Iowa and New Hampshire and certainly they are not reflective of the makeup of this country , ” Waters added .
“ And so , California has a role to play .
”

Another day, another wacky worldview from Mad Maxine.
Rep. Maxine Waters, 81, claims violent street gangs in California have more integrity than President Trump.
“I have worked in some of the toughest communities,” The California Democrat said when asked about the president in a recent interview with Showtime’s “Desus & Mero.” “I’ve worked with gangs. I’ve worked with Crips, I’ve worked with Bloods. And there’s more integrity in many of these young people in the ‘hood than this man has.”

“This is a flawed character, and I’ve never seen anything like this,” Waters said. “This country cannot tolerate another four years of him.”
The Crips and the Bloods are rival gangs in the Los Angeles and other urban centers in California who have been killing each other for years. One year the gangs left 800 dead, but they’re as active as ever. Just last Wednesday, rapper Pop Smoke was murdered by rival gang members over his ties to the Crips.
Waters last coocoo comment came last week when she said her home state should have “more say” in the Democratic Party’s primaries because they have “fancy” big-money parties in Beverly Hills.
“As you know, we have candidates who fly out to Los Angeles from everywhere to raise money,” the California Democrat told CNBC.

And so, you know, the conclusion, the thinking is that if we are supplying tremendous dollars to candidates, we ought to have more say.”
California’s primary comes up on March 3 — Super Tuesday — after a handful of other states hold caucuses and primaries. But Waters thinks California should be front and center at all times.
“Beyond that, a lot of people have come to the conclusion that it should not simply be Iowa and New Hampshire and certainly they are not reflective of the makeup of this country,” Waters added. “And so, California has a role to play.”

Roger Stone Files Motion for Judge Amy Berman Jackson to Recuse Herself After She Praised ‘Integrity’ of Jurors

Roger Stone Files Motion for Judge Amy Berman Jackson to Recuse Herself After She Praised ‘ Integrity ’ of Jurors Roger Stone filed a motion Friday night asking Judge Amy Berman Jackson to recuse herself from his case after she praised the “ integrity ” of the jury that convicted him when she pronounced his sentence of 40 months in prison on Thursday even though she had Stone ’ s motion for a new trial based on juror bias pending in front of her .
Stone was convicted in the Mueller probe last year on seven charges of lying to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ In the motion for recusal , Stone calls out Jackson for saying during the sentencing hearing , “ Sure , the defense is free to say : So what ?
Who cares ?
But , I ’ ll say this : Congress cared .
The United States Department of Justice and the United States Attorney ’ s Office for the District of Columbia that prosecuted the case and is still prosecuting the case cared .
The jurors who served with integrity under difficult circumstances cared .
The American people cared .
And I @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a new trial was filed under seal , however the recusal motion indicates it is about juror bias , a likely reference to recent reports about jury forewoman Tomeka Hart .
An expert analysis by George Washington University law professor Jonathan Turley of the voir dire of Hart can be read at this link at The Hill .
Turley ’ s conclusion : …It certainly seems Hart had no place on the Stone jury .
The Supreme Court has repeatedly declared that the “ minimal standards of due process ” demand “ a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Hart ’ s record suggests little that is impartial or indifferent .
She was perfectly within her right to engage in such commentary and protests — but she had no right to sit in judgment of an associate of the president after her public declarations .
Her participation raises serious arguments for setting aside the verdict , from the possibility of ineffective counsel to the denial of due process .
The burden now is on Judge Jackson to hold a hearing on this matter and address the possible need for a mistrial .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ Judge Jackson , in the words of Juror No .
1261 , does not “ got ta love ” any of this .
Defendant , Roger J .
Stone , Jr. , files this Motion for Judicial Disqualification , pursuant to 28 U.S.C .
§ 455 ( a ) , in advance of oral arguments related to Defendant Stone ’ s Motion for a New Trial ( Dkt .
# 309-2 ) .
The issue at hand arises from the Defendant ’ s pending Motion for a New Trial ( Dkt .
# @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Berman-Jackson during the Defendant ’ s Sentencing Hearing on February 20 , 2020 .
Stone ’ s argument for a new trial rests on newly discovered information indicating that there was juror misconduct during Mr. Stone ’ s trial , thereby depriving him of his constitutional right to be tried by an impartial jury .
Defendant ’ s Motion has not been ruled on , and in fact , the Defendant ’ s Reply to the Government ’ s Opposition is not yet due , nor has a hearing been set .
The @ @ @ @ @ @ @ interviews are appropriate in light of the allegations .
However , given the statements made by Judge BermanJackson during the Sentencing Hearing , recusal under 28 U.S.C § 455 ( a ) is warranted in order to protect the integrity and impartiality of the judicial system .
28 U.S.C .
§ 455 ( a ) states , “ [ a ] ny justice , judge , or magistrate judge of the United States shall disqualify himself in any proceeding in which his impartiality might reasonably be questioned.
” “ [ A ] showing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to permit the average citizen reasonably to question a judge ’ s impartiality is all that must be demonstrated to compel recusal.
” United States .
v. Heldt , 668 F.2d 1238 , 1271 ( D.C. Cir .
1981 ) .
The goal of section 445 is to “ avoid even the appearance of partiality.
” Liljeberg v. Health Servs .
Acquisition Corp. 468 U.S. 847 , 860 ( 1988 ) .
“ In addressing the mere appearance of partiality , section 455 addresses not only fairness to the litigants but also the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , which may be irreparably harmed if a case is allowed to proceed before a judge who appears to be tainted.
” In re School Asbestos Litigation , 977 F.2d 764 , 776 ( 3d .
Cir .
1992 ) .
“ It has been argued that any ‘ public comment by a judge concerning the facts , applicable law , or merits of a case that is sub judice in his court or any comment concerning the parties or their attorneys would raise grave doubts about the judge ’ s objectivity and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ close of the proceeding.
’ ” United States v. Microsoft Corp. , 253 F.3d 34 , 114 ( D.C. Cir .
2001 ) ( quoting William G. Ross , Extrajudicial Speech : Charting the Boundaries of Propriety , 2 GEO .
J .
LEGAL ETHICS 589 , 598 ( 1989 ) ) .
Disqualification under section 455 ( a ) is appropriate even after a final judgment is entered in certain situations .
See Microsoft Corp. , 253 F.3d at 116 .
Stone ’ s Motion for New Trial is directly related to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is alleged that a juror misled the Court regarding her ability to be unbiased and fair and the juror attempted to cover up evidence that would directly contradict her false claims of impartiality .
Nevertheless , at Mr. Stone ’ s sentencing , the Court emphatically stated its views regarding both of the defendant and the jurors in his trial : “ Everyone depends on our elected representatives to protect our elections from foreign interference based on the facts .
No one knows where the threat is going to come from next time @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to be on , and for that reason the dismay and disgust at the defendant ’ s belligerence should transcend party .
The dismay and the disgust at the attempts by others to defend his actions as just business as usual in our polarized climate should transcend party .

2001 ) .
The premature statement blessing the “ integrity of the jury ” undermines the appearance of impartiality and presents a strong bias for recusal .
The Court should grant this Motion for Judicial Recusal based on the arguments presented above .

Roger Stone filed a motion Friday night asking Judge Amy Berman Jackson to recuse herself from his case after she praised the “integrity” of the jury that convicted him when she pronounced his sentence of 40 months in prison on Thursday even though she had Stone’s motion for a new trial based on juror bias pending in front of her. Stone was convicted in the Mueller probe last year on seven charges of lying to Congress, obstruction and witness tampering.
In the motion for recusal, Stone calls out Jackson for saying during the sentencing hearing, “Sure, the defense is free to say: So what? Who cares? But, I’ll say this: Congress cared. The United States Department of Justice and the United States Attorney’s Office for the District of Columbia that prosecuted the case and is still prosecuting the case cared. The jurors who served with integrity under difficult circumstances cared. The American people cared. And I care.”
Stone’s motion for a new trial was filed under seal, however the recusal motion indicates it is about juror bias, a likely reference to recent reports about jury forewoman Tomeka Hart.
An expert analysis by George Washington University law professor Jonathan Turley of the voir dire of Hart can be read at this link at The Hill. Turley’s conclusion:
…It certainly seems Hart had no place on the Stone jury. The Supreme Court has repeatedly declared that the “minimal standards of due process” demand “a panel of impartial, indifferent jurors.” Hart’s record suggests little that is impartial or indifferent. She was perfectly within her right to engage in such commentary and protests — but she had no right to sit in judgment of an associate of the president after her public declarations. Her participation raises serious arguments for setting aside the verdict, from the possibility of ineffective counsel to the denial of due process. The burden now is on Judge Jackson to hold a hearing on this matter and address the possible need for a mistrial. And one thing will be clear: Judge Jackson, in the words of Juror No. 1261, does not “gotta love” any of this.
Stone’s Friday night motion:
Defendant, Roger J. Stone, Jr., files this Motion for Judicial Disqualification, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 455(a), in advance of oral arguments related to Defendant Stone’s Motion for a New Trial (Dkt. # 309-2).
The issue at hand arises from the Defendant’s pending Motion for a New Trial (Dkt. # 309-2) and statements made by Judge Berman-Jackson during the Defendant’s Sentencing Hearing on February 20, 2020. Stone’s argument for a new trial rests on newly discovered information indicating that there was juror misconduct during Mr. Stone’s trial, thereby depriving him of his constitutional right to be tried by an impartial jury. Defendant’s Motion has not been ruled on, and in fact, the Defendant’s Reply to the Government’s Opposition is not yet due, nor has a hearing been set. The Court must still consider whether any juror interviews are appropriate in light of the allegations. However, given the statements made by Judge BermanJackson during the Sentencing Hearing, recusal under 28 U.S.C § 455(a) is warranted in order to protect the integrity and impartiality of the judicial system.
28 U.S.C. § 455(a) states, “[a]ny justice, judge, or magistrate judge of the United States shall disqualify himself in any proceeding in which his impartiality might reasonably be questioned.” “[A] showing or appearance of bias or prejudice sufficient to permit the average citizen reasonably to question a judge’s impartiality is all that must be demonstrated to compel recusal.” United States. v. Heldt, 668 F.2d 1238, 1271 (D.C. Cir. 1981).
The goal of section 445 is to “avoid even the appearance of partiality.” Liljeberg v. Health Servs. Acquisition Corp. 468 U.S. 847, 860 (1988). “In addressing the mere appearance of partiality, section 455 addresses not only fairness to the litigants but also the public’s confidence in the judiciary, which may be irreparably harmed if a case is allowed to proceed before a judge who appears to be tainted.” In re School Asbestos Litigation, 977 F.2d 764, 776 (3d. Cir. 1992). “It has been argued that any ‘public comment by a judge concerning the facts, applicable law, or merits of a case that is sub judice in his court or any comment concerning the parties or their attorneys would raise grave doubts about the judge’s objectivity and his willingness to reserve judgment until the close of the proceeding.’” United States v. Microsoft Corp., 253 F.3d 34, 114 (D.C. Cir. 2001) (quoting William G. Ross, Extrajudicial Speech: Charting the Boundaries of Propriety, 2 GEO. J. LEGAL ETHICS 589, 598 (1989)). Disqualification under section 455(a) is appropriate even after a final judgment is entered in certain situations. See Microsoft Corp., 253 F.3d at 116.
Stone’s Motion for New Trial is directly related to the integrity of a juror. It is alleged that a juror misled the Court regarding her ability to be unbiased and fair and the juror attempted to cover up evidence that would directly contradict her false claims of impartiality.
Nevertheless, at Mr. Stone’s sentencing, the Court emphatically stated its views regarding both of the defendant and the jurors in his trial:
“Everyone depends on our elected representatives to protect our
elections from foreign interference based on the facts. No one
knows where the threat is going to come from next time or whose
side they’re going to be on, and for that reason the dismay and
disgust at the defendant’s belligerence should transcend party. The
dismay and the disgust at the attempts by others to defend his
actions as just business as usual in our polarized climate should
transcend party. The dismay and the disgust with any attempts to
interfere with the efforts of prosecutors and members of the
judiciary to fulfil their duty should transcend party. Sure, the
defense is free to say: So what? Who cares?” T. 87.
“But, I’ll say this: Congress cared. The United States Department of
Justice and the United States Attorney’s Office for the District of
Columbia that prosecuted the case and is still prosecuting the case
cared. The jurors who served with integrity under difficult
circumstances cared. The American people cared. And I care.”
Recusal is required based on the entirety of the above and this statement in particular: “The jurors who served with integrity under difficult circumstances cared.” 2/20/20 Tr. 88:7-8 (emphasis added). Whether the subject juror (and perhaps others) served with “integrity” is one of the paramount questions presented in the pending Motion. The Court’s ardent conclusion of “integrity” indicates an inability to reserve judgment on an issue which has yet been heard. Moreover, the categorical finding of integrity made before hearing the facts is likely to “lead a reasonably informed observer to question the District Judge’s impartiality. Public confidence in the integrity and Impartiality of the judiciary is seriously jeopardized when judges…share their thoughts about the merits of pending…cases.” Microsoft Corp., 253 F.3d at 114-115 (D.C. Cir. 2001). The premature statement blessing the “integrity of the jury” undermines the appearance of impartiality and presents a strong bias for recusal.
The Court should grant this Motion for Judicial Recusal based on the arguments presented above.

Liberal Justice Sonia Sotomayor issued a blustering dissent in an ideologically split 5-4 Supreme Court ruling released Friday night in which she accused the five conservative justices who voted in the majority of repeatedly favoring the Trump administration .
The case involved an appeal by the Department of Homeland Security for an injunction in a ruling against the imposition by the administration of a “ public charge rule ” regarding immigrants in an Illinois case that the Court has already allowed for the other 49 states .

Sotomayor ’ s @ @ @ @ @ @ @ growing pushback in recent years by President Trump and his administration that has found support from the Court ’ s conservative majority against the imposition of nationwide injunctions by individual District Court judges against Trump administration actions .

Perhaps most troublingly , the Court ’ s recent behavior on stay applications has benefited one litigant over all others .

Text of the DHS final rule on public charge that was the subject of the Supreme Court case : On August 14 , 2019 , the U.S. Department of Homeland Security ( DHS ) published the Inadmissibility on Public Charge Grounds final rule that codifies regulations governing the application of the public charge inadmissibility ground under INA section 212 ( a ) ( 4 ) .
On Oct. 2 , DHS @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 10 , 2018 , DHS issued a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking ( NPRM ) , which was published in the Federal Register for a 60-day comment period .
DHS received and considered over 266,000 public comments before issuing this final rule .
The final rule provides summaries and responses to all significant public comments .
The final rule enables the federal government to better carry out provisions of U.S. immigration law related to the public charge ground of inadmissibility .
The final rule clarifies the factors considered when determining whether someone is likely @ @ @ @ @ @ @ become a public charge , is inadmissible under section 212 ( a ) ( 4 ) of the INA , and therefore , ineligible for admission or adjustment of status .
The rule applies to applicants for admission , aliens seeking to adjust their status to that of lawful permanent residents from within the United States , and aliens within the United States who hold a nonimmigrant visa and seek to extend their stay in the same nonimmigrant classification or to change their status to a different nonimmigrant classification .
The final rule @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for past , current , or future receipt of public benefits by U.S. citizens or aliens whom Congress has exempted from the public charge ground of inadmissibility .
The final rule does not apply to U.S. citizens , even if the U.S. citizen is related to a noncitizen who is subject to the public charge ground of inadmissibility .
The rule also does not apply to aliens whom Congress exempted from the public charge ground of inadmissibility , such as refugees , asylees , Afghans and Iraqis with special immigrant visas , and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ individuals applying under the Violence Against Women Act , special immigrant juveniles , or to those who DHS has granted a waiver of public charge inadmissibility .
In addition , this rule also clarifies that DHS will not consider the receipt of designated public benefits received by an alien who , at the time of receipt , or at the time of filing the application for admission , adjustment of status , extension of stay , or change of status , is enlisted in the U.S. armed forces , or is serving in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Ready Reserve components of the U.S. armed forces , and will not consider the receipt of public benefits by the spouse and children of such service members .
The rule further provides that DHS will not consider public benefits received by children , including adopted children , who will acquire U.S. citizenship under INA section 320 , 8 U.S.C .
1431 .
Similarly , DHS will not consider the Medicaid benefits received : ( 1 ) for the treatment of an “ emergency medical condition , ” ( 2 ) as services or @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with Disabilities Education Act , ( 3 ) as school-based services or benefits provided to individuals who are at or below the oldest age eligible for secondary education as determined under State or local law , ( 4 ) by aliens under the age of 21 , and ( 5 ) by pregnant women and by women within the 60-day period beginning on the last day of the pregnancy .
DHS will only consider public benefits received directly by the applicant for the applicant ’ s own benefit , or where the applicant @ @ @ @ @ @ @ benefit .
DHS will not consider public benefits received on behalf of another as a legal guardian or pursuant to a power of attorney for such a person .
DHS will also not attribute receipt of a public benefit by one or more members of the applicant ’ s household to the applicant unless the applicant is also a listed beneficiary of the public benefit .

Liberal Justice Sonia Sotomayor issued a blustering dissent in an ideologically split 5-4 Supreme Court ruling released Friday night in which she accused the five conservative justices who voted in the majority of repeatedly favoring the Trump administration.
The case involved an appeal by the Department of Homeland Security for an injunction in a ruling against the imposition by the administration of a “public charge rule” regarding immigrants in an Illinois case that the Court has already allowed for the other 49 states.

There is nothing “fair and balanced” about the court’s double standard that favors the government over everyone else. And, as Sotomayor implies, this flagrant bias creates the disturbing impression that the Trump administration has a majority of the court in its pocket.

chief Mike Pompeo there was no Russia Hack at the DNC .
Three years later , Mike Pompeo is still sitting on that crucial piece of information .
William Binney , a 30-year former intelligence official with the United States National Security Agency ( NSA ) and high profile whistleblower , spoke with National File recently about his October 2017 meeting with then-CIA director @ @ @ @ @ @ @ between the two at the direction of President Donald J. Trump .
Even though Binney boldly informed then-CIA director and now Secretary of State , Pompeo that he had proof and his own investigations that Intelligence agencies were lying to Trump about the Russians , Pompeo has not introduced Binney ’ s expert claims to anyone at Capitol Hill three years later .
As a result , the actors pursuing President Trump have been able to continue in their persistence that there was a Russian hack , a rhetorical feature which allowed the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ long as it did .
At the end of that October 2017 meeting , Pompeo asked Binney if he would report his expert forensic evidence , which included hard data disproving Guccifer2 was Russian , and the claims that Russia hacked the DNC , which are the foundations of the numerous Democrat investigations by Trump and his administration related to Russian tampering .
“ The President had suggested that he [ Pompeo ] talk to me and that was [ Pompeo ’ s ] opening statement to me .
That the President wanted @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Binney told National File .
“ The meeting was for Pompeo to learn the facts about Russiagate .
So I said that I would tell him exactly what I know .
I had been able to find out from open-source information that was posted by the Guccifer 2 alleged persona .
I told him all of that .
I told him that the agencies were lying to him .
That it took me a few hours time to determine download speeds from open source material after they have sent billions of dollars , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ same ?
Something is very wrong there is what I told him , ” Binney told National File .
We ’ ve reported on Binney ’ s claims for some time .
The whole “ Russia hacked the DNC and provided their hacked emails to WikiLeaks ” is a lie according to Binney and others .
This was the basic claim underlying the Trump – Russia collusion sham and the eventual Mueller Special Counsel coup and it was a lie !
Trump friend Roger Stone was indicted after being charged by the Mueller @ @ @ @ @ @ @ who provided the DNC and Podesta emails to WikiLeaks ?
The corrupt FBI and Mueller team claim the emails were hacked but neither entity inspected the DNC server which was supposedly hacked .
Stone was indicted related to this claim .
The DNC instead hired a firm Crowdstrike , with connections to Mueller and former Obama Director of National Intelligence James Clapper , who provided a redacted report to the FBI and Mueller stating the emails were hacked by Russia .
Former NSA whistleblower Bill Binney claimed he had evidence the DNC emails @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on to a flashdrive or something similar in an interview shared on Twitter : Bill Binney , is more than an expert , he is “ A Good American ” .
Binney developed a system for the NSA that would have identified the 9-11 terrorist attack before it occurred , but the NSA shut down his project .
This is all documented in the documentary “ A Good American ” .
We encourage you to watch this video about Binney ’ s work with the NSA and their subsequent follow up after 9-11 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ shared the information from Bill Binney with President Trump ?
( Not that it ’ s also been reported that Pompeo as Secretary of State argued against the termination of Ukrainian Ambassador Marie Yovanovitch a year before she was eventually terminated . )
What is Pompeo thinking ?
If true , his actions prevented the termination of the Mueller witchhunt and the Ukrainian scam impeachment .

A report on the Internet states that cyber expert and NSA whistleblower, Bill Binney, shared information two and a half years ago with then CIA Director, Mike Pompeo, that he had evidence that the Russians did not hack the DNC in 2016.
According to a report out this week, Pompeo, the current Secretary of State, never shared Binney’s information with the President.
National File shared the following report a week ago that Bill Binney shared information with Mike Pompeo in late 2017 that still hasn’t made its way to President Trump:
NSA whistleblower Bill Binney told then-C.I.A. chief Mike Pompeo there was no Russia Hack at the DNC. Three years later, Mike Pompeo is still sitting on that crucial piece of information. William Binney, a 30-year former intelligence official with the United States National Security Agency (NSA) and high profile whistleblower, spoke with National File recently about his October 2017 meeting with then-CIA director, Mike Pompeo, which was called between the two at the direction of President Donald J. Trump. Even though Binney boldly informed then-CIA director and now Secretary of State, Pompeo that he had proof and his own investigations that Intelligence agencies were lying to Trump about the Russians, Pompeo has not introduced Binney’s expert claims to anyone at Capitol Hill three years later. As a result, the actors pursuing President Trump have been able to continue in their persistence that there was a Russian hack, a rhetorical feature which allowed the Russia Hoax to drag on for as long as it did. At the end of that October 2017 meeting, Pompeo asked Binney if he would report his expert forensic evidence, which included hard data disproving Guccifer2 was Russian, and the claims that Russia hacked the DNC, which are the foundations of the numerous Democrat investigations by Trump and his administration related to Russian tampering. “The President had suggested that he [Pompeo] talk to me and that was [Pompeo’s] opening statement to me.

That it took me a few hours time to determine download speeds from open source material after they have sent billions of dollars, and they can’t find the same? Something is very wrong there is what I told him,” Binney told National File.
We’ve reported on Binney’s claims for some time. The whole “Russia hacked the DNC and provided their hacked emails to WikiLeaks” is a lie according to Binney and others.
This was the basic claim underlying the Trump – Russia collusion sham and the eventual Mueller Special Counsel coup and it was a lie!
Roger Stone’s Indictment
Trump friend Roger Stone was indicted after being charged by the Mueller gang based on this key question – who provided the DNC and Podesta emails to WikiLeaks?
The corrupt FBI and Mueller team claim the emails were hacked but neither entity inspected the DNC server which was supposedly hacked. Stone was indicted related to this claim.
The DNC instead hired a firm Crowdstrike, with connections to Mueller and former Obama Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, who provided a redacted report to the FBI and Mueller stating the emails were hacked by Russia.
Former NSA whistleblower Bill Binney claimed he had evidence the DNC emails were not hacked but copied most likely on to a flashdrive or something similar in an interview shared on Twitter:

Bill Binney, is more than an expert, he is “A Good American”. Binney developed a system for the NSA that would have identified the 9-11 terrorist attack before it occurred, but the NSA shut down his project. This is all documented in the documentary “A Good American”. We encourage you to watch this video about Binney’s work with the NSA and their subsequent follow up after 9-11 below –
For some reason Pompeo never shared the information from Bill Binney with President Trump? (Not that it’s also been reported that Pompeo as Secretary of State argued against the termination of Ukrainian Ambassador Marie Yovanovitch a year before she was eventually terminated.)
What is Pompeo thinking? If true, his actions prevented the termination of the Mueller witchhunt and the Ukrainian scam impeachment.

Massachusetts City Passes Law Advising Police Not To Arrest Illegal Immigrants For Driving Without A License The city of Cambridge , Massachusetts just passed a new law which seems to give illegal immigrants more rights than American citizens .
Under the new law , the city ’ s police are advised not to arrest illegal immigrants who are caught driving without a license .
The city is doing this specifically to shield illegals from ICE .

“ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ from a federal government that ’ s out of control , ” said Cambridge City Councilor Quinton Zondervan .
“ There are no other reasons for the police to arrest someone , give them a court summons instead which keeps them out of the clutches of the Trump administration.

The city of Cambridge, Massachusetts just passed a new law which seems to give illegal immigrants more rights than American citizens.
Under the new law, the city’s police are advised not to arrest illegal immigrants who are caught driving without a license.
The city is doing this specifically to shield illegals from ICE.
FOX 25 in Boston reports:
Under new Cambridge law, undocumented immigrants won’t be arrested for driving without a license It’s the law that you need a license to drive. But, if you’re undocumented and driving without a license in Cambridge, police have been advised not to arrest you for that. It’s all part of a new law that passed unanimously in the city, which encourages police to summons unlicensed drivers instead of arresting them. The procedure has already been practiced for a while, but city leaders said they felt compelled to officially make it a law, in fear of what could happen to immigration laws should President Trump be re-elected. “We need to protect our community members from a federal government that’s out of control,” said Cambridge City Councilor Quinton Zondervan. “There are no other reasons for the police to arrest someone, give them a court summons instead which keeps them out of the clutches of the Trump administration.” Currently, Massachusetts requires drivers to show proof of legal status in order to obtain a driver’s license, a move that many have opposed saying it makes roads more dangerous.
Even more astounding, is the fact that local officials seem proud of this move.
The Washington Examiner reports:
Illegal immigrants in Massachusetts city won’t be arrested if they drive without a license Police had already been advised to follow this protocol for some time, but the council voted unanimously to make it a law, according to the Tuesday report. The law doesn’t restrict police from arresting drivers if they have additional violations besides the lack of a driver’s license. It does, however, keep police from asking if a driver is a legal citizen. The Massachusetts Legislature’s Joint Committee on Transportation gave its support for a different bill earlier in February that would allow illegal immigrants to obtain state driver’s licenses… Cambridge, which is home to Harvard University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, became a sanctuary city in 1985, and city officials have become more vocal about sticking to the status since President Trump took office. “At the end of the day, we have to have a real conversation and understand that these folks seeking asylum are people,” Cambridge Mayor Marc McGovern said during a Fox News hit in 2019. “They are not cargo.”
