I thought Ilhan believed in a free ‘n open press? Yeah, nah.
If she has proof, she doesn’t need to make threats.
Occam’s razor sez her threats indicate she doesn’t have any proof, and nobody with a spine is going to take her threats seriously.

@Jaguares4real Really been impressed with Crenshaw and Cruz recently. Would be interesting if they have a crack at the big job after Trump. Would be pretty bad-ass to have a president with an eye patch.

How long until the wokest of woke SJWs demand changing the name of the capital city and the state?
This is how you lose the middle.
Move to erase George Washington mural sparks firestorm among Dems
SAN FRANCISCO — A San Francisco school board decision to spend $600,000 to paint over a New Deal-era mural of George Washington as a slave owner is fueling a family feud among Democrats — with a growing chorus protesting that the controversial move may hand Donald Trump potent ammunition in his re-election bid.
“I think of myself as liberal, progressive, and have been all my life — but I’m just sort of stunned by this,’’ veteran Democratic strategist Bob Shrum said Sunday. “We have a little more important things to do — like defeating Donald Trump — than to whitewash a mural.”
Shrum, who today directs the Center for the Political Future and Unruh Institute of Politics at USC, set off a round of heated social media commentary Sunday when he tweeted: “I am a progressive Democrat, but this is nuts. Just because others are nuts, doesn’t mean we have to be.”
The San Francisco Board of Education voted unanimously last month to paint over all 13 panels of the 1600 sq. ft. mural “Life of Washington,’’ a historic work commissioned during the New Deal that depicts George Washington as a slave owner. The move came after several vocal protesters demanded the move at a public meeting, saying their children were “traumatized” by depictions of the nation’s first president standing over the images of dead Native Americans.

Cruz has a formidable intellect Not someone you want to debate in a Committee
Crenshaw I like as well especially on domestic issues Bit gung ho on Foreign matters namely Iran

Today was the day everybody learned Mueller Time was really a rerun of Mr. Magoo.
-
Mueller's performance today makes clear it was Democrat partisan Andrew Weissmann (Dem donor who planned to attend Hillary 'victory party') and his team of all Democrat lawyers running the "Mueller Investigation".
The most revered and powerful man in Washington for 2 years has been revealed to be a bumbling old man losing control of his faculties. When questioned, he didn't even know who Fusion GPS was.
Here's a sample of the hearing.

He wasn't sharp but I think he was filibustering a lot of the time.
Each member only has a few minutes to questions. So bumbling, asking for clarification, checking the document means less time answering anything. It's not unusual in these sort of hearings when a witness didn't want to be there
-
He might have been filibustering, waffling, etc., but he also looked clearly confused and out of his depth. He doesn’t appear to be somebody who was in charge of his own investigation, and this will now be a big part of his legacy — he’s either a partisan stonewaller or somebody clueless and suffering from early Alzheimers, pick your poison.
It now appears the entire charade was a Democratic operation with Mueller as the figurehead. He twisted himself into so many knots that Trump will be able to use his most damaging line of the 2016 campaign (“they lied and they knew they were lying,” re: GOP architects of the wmd hoax) and re-load it for Democrats.

Wow looks pretty good for Trump, I wonder what media will lead with?
...oh

I just checked NZH homepage and there’s crickets about this story. You know for certain if there was anything damaging to Trump it would have been Five Alarm headlines. Yet there’s nothing. Gee I wonder why?

Stuff had it front page for a little bit....AP article, sounds like Mueller must have had 2 hearings..I mean what other explanation could there be for the reporting difference?

Gabbard sues google
Responding to the suit, Google spokeswoman Riva Sciuto said in a statement that the company has automated systems that "flag unusual activity on all advertiser accounts -- including large spending changes -- in order to prevent fraud and protect our customers."
"In this case, our system triggered a suspension and the account was reinstated shortly thereafter," Sciuto said. "We are proud to offer ad products that help campaigns connect directly with voters, and we do so without bias toward any party or political ideology."Who could have foreseen that a political candidate after a televised debate might spend more money on advertising?
