    This is why the Trump WH has been basically lying about the coming TrumpCare healthcare plan...REMEMBER the Trump statement that it will be "affordable and with heart" AND will cover everyone.....?????

    Trumpcare will land like an atomic bomb on West Virginia. Will its senator vote no?

    .@RealDonaldTrump boasted last week that his favorite poll - Rasmussen - had his approval at 50%.

    It's now 46% and...silence

    HERE we go again with a Trump twitter rant and or better yet a twitter rage based on the number if tweets in a short period.....


    Donald J. Trump‏
    @realDonaldTrump

    The Democrats have become nothing but OBSTRUCTIONISTS, they have no policies or ideas. All they do is delay and complain.They own ObamaCare!

    The reason that President Obama did NOTHING about Russia after being notified by the CIA of meddling is that he expected Clinton would win..

    ...and did not want to "rock the boat." He didn't "choke," he colluded or obstructed, and it did the Dems and Crooked Hillary no good.

    The real story is that President Obama did NOTHING after being informed in August about Russian meddling. With 4 months looking at Russia...

    ..under a magnifying glass, they have zero "tapes" of T people colluding. There is no collusion & no obstruction. I should be given apology!

    HERE is exactly where Trump should have done a "full fledged STOP" in his use of twitter.....

    THIS is a quiet comment from someone very close to the USG IC.........

    Zero "tapes" Donnie -- you sure about that?

    SO is Trump actually just "channeling his fears" and trying to get the USG IC to respond so he knows what they in fact have on him...appears so.....

    There are very solid indicators that overseas "US friendly ICs" do in fact have Trump and his family on tapes both audio and visual......

    Trump has been engaging with first the Soviet Union Communists starting in 1987 to now Russian oligarchical purchasers of his real estate in 2017..........AND has been on US IC and overseas ICs radar since 1987 AND there is nothing on tape and or spy reporting about Trump.....hard to believe there is nothing......

    Interestingly Trump has gone from a total denial of the "Russians hacked the US"...TO a full scale attack on Obama for not defending the US from those "attacking crazy Russian hackers"......

    HOW strange is that?????

    HERE is Trump's problem...until the FBI SC Mueller formally announces that there was not a single trace of Russian Trump collusion and or deep Russian support to Trump......

    Trump can tweet all day long....but until Mueller formally clears him...he and his merry band of Russian connections are still under investigation...it is as simple as that....

    AND that could take literally months and months and months of negative press.....

    AND the key question is ..was the Trump election actually legitimate...??

    #@realDonaldTrump

    Republican Senators are working very hard to get there, with no help from the Democrats. Not easy! Perhaps just let OCare crash & burn!

    He is on a tear today.....almost like a 3 year old throwing a tantrum when not getting their favorite toy....BUT he is 71.....

    Would any sane US President even want to met Putin WHO Trump has admitted in his tweets alleging Obama did not do enough against the Russian meddling....

    BASCIALLY Trump did admit to the US that YES Putin did in fact hack the election.....both by his tweets and his Fox News interview

    AND on top of this Trump still has not released his 90 cyber defense plan for the US......

    Actually Trump has not done a single thing to defend the US from further Putin hacking attacks.....
    Trump wants to kiss Putin's ring. Putin is demanding fealty. Trump wants to comply. Knows he must. Horns of dilemma.

    Trump eager for big meeting with Putin; some advisers wary
    https://apnews.com/a39de0185d6844bfb0c4009b22791252

    WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump is eager to meet Russian President Vladimir Putin with full diplomatic bells and whistles when the two are in Germany for a multinational summit next month. But the idea is exposing deep divisions within the administration on the best way to approach Moscow in the midst of an ongoing investigation into Russian meddling in the U.S. elections.
    Many administration officials believe the U.S. needs to maintain its distance from Russia at such a sensitive time — and interact only with great caution.
    But Trump and some others within his administration have been pressing for a full bilateral meeting. He’s calling for media access and all the typical protocol associated with such sessions, even as officials within the State Department and National Security Council urge more restraint, according to a current and a former administration official.
    Oleg Kalugin, a former general with Russia’s main security agency, known as the KGB, said Putin, a shrewd and experienced politician, has “other priorities” than discussing the accusations that Russia hacked the U.S. election with Trump, such as easing sanctions, raising oil prices, as well as next year’s presidential elections in Russia.
    “Putin knows how to redirect a conversation in his favor,” Kalugin said.
    Nina Khrushcheva, a Russian affairs professor at the New School, said Trump is in an “impossible position.”
    “He can’t be too nice to Putin because it’s going to be interpreted in a way that suggests he has a special relationship with Russia,” she said. “He can’t be too mean because Putin has long arms and KGB thinking. So Trump needs to have a good relationship with him but he also needs to fulfill his campaign promises of establishing better relations with Russia.”

    I'm sure Kislyiak being asked by Mueller to submit to voluntary interview & his return to Moscow after many years is entirely coincidental.
    http://thehill.com/policy/internatio...trump-campaign

    Pulling out one of their best agent recruiters is an unusual thing even for Russian standards....unless the comment is correct that he was approached by the FBI SC Mueller.....

    It will take the new incoming ambassador years to build up the same level of personal contacts....

    Question is will he survive a "sudden heart attack" as have four other former diplomats or former FSB generals tied to this Russian investigation...

    UK MI6 spy found dead/locked in sports bag, yet ruled “an accident”. Was working w/NSA on Russian money laundering...

    Guess he killed himself first and then locked himself in the bag after getting in dead....BUT it was all an "accident"

    To put this in perspective REMEMBER the Steel Dossier...a rumor retired KGB General tied to that dossier was found in the backseat of his car with two bullets to the head execution style....the Moscow local police who first arrived on the scene declared it a murder BUT 24 hours later it was officially declared a "heart attack" while he was driving...in the backseat?????.....

    ‘Alt-right’ pro-Trump rallies in Washington drew less than 100 marchers combined
    http://ow.ly/Xk2K30cSFje

    Interesting in that it does not equate to their massive presence on the social media side...BUT all number of their supporters are actually automated bots...nor does it match the echo chamber of their blog sites called "news sites".......

    Kellyanne Conway’s Dangerously Misguided Advice on Addiction
    https://medium.com/@RVAwonk/kellyann...n-fe66a496cf82

    During an appearance on ABC’s This Week, Kellyanne Conway suggested that the government doesn’t need to spend money on addiction treatment. Rather, she said, people with substance use disorders just need more “will” to overcome addiction.
    The exchange took place after ABC’s George Stephanopoulos questioned Conway on the recently released Senate health care bill, which guts Medicaid — the single largest payer of substance abuse treatment — and allots only $2 billion to fight the opioid crisis, leaving a shortfall of at least $188 billion over the next ten years. Pressed to explain how the health care bill would fulfill Donald Trump’s campaign promise to address the opioid epidemic, Conway suggested that money for treatment isn’t the answer:
    And so pouring money into the problem is not only answer. We have to get serious about in-facility treatment and recovery. It…
    STEPHANOPOULOS: That takes money, Kellyanne.
    CONWAY: It takes money and it also takes a four letter word called will.
    The Willpower Myth
    The idea that addiction stems from a lack of willpower is a dangerous and pervasive myth that ignores the modern science of addiction. While much remains to be learned about the processes involved in addiction and recovery, the research is clear on one thing: Addiction is a brain disease, not a character flaw. Those who have studied addiction and/or worked in addiction recovery centers know that most people struggling with substance use disorders want to quit. In fact, most people with addictions try to quit (often repeatedly) on their own
    BUT WAIT...right now Medicaid supports a majority of these opioid addicts...and Medicaid is being CUT 800B USDs over the next 10 years.....

    REMEMBER Trump stated multiple times he is not going to ever cut SS, Medicaid and Medicare........multiple times.....BUT he will in fact cut Medicaid REGARDLESS of his campaign promises.....

    The FBI SC Mueller investigation and prosecutor team is right now about the best All Star team ever assembled since WaterGate.....no wonder Trump is in a twitter rant today.....

    These top investigators and attorneys are joining Mueller to prosecute because there is a lot of substance to this case AND they are leaving extremely well paying positions to a government pay position to join him as they feel there is a massive case brewing......

    Mike Pompeo made a pretty striking attempt to downplay Russia's 2016 meddling in his interview w/Hugh Hewitt.
    http://bit.ly/2tes1Lt

    Rogers and Coates have both testified in closed session that Trump did approach them about potentially stopping the Comey Russain investigation and that Trump wanted them to voice their support to the fact there was no collusion.....

    Pompeo has basically refused to testify in closed session....still attempting to protect Trump...

    Well at least someone in the GOP is pointing out that the current TrumpCare bill is not what Trump "promised his voters"...not in the least......

    Huckabee hits Senate GOP healthcare bill: This isn't what Trump campaigned on
    http://hill.cm/bISadjU

    “If this were a fairy tale, it would be 'Goldilocks and the three bills' -- ObamaCare, the House version and the Senate version. And at this point, none of them are 'just right.' They are all are either 'too hot' or 'too cold' and in part because both sides are looking at this trying to make it an ideological bill rather than a practical, pragmatic bill,” he continued.
    Huckabee questioned the end game of the Senate bill, saying it does not accomplish what President Trump promised on the campaign trail.
    “If the end game is to save money, then the Republicans might be on the right track. But that’s not the game Donald Trump campaigned on and it is not the endgame that Americans care most about. They want access to affordable and realistic healthcare,” he said.
    “I think Republicans are going to have to suck it up and say, ‘This isn’t going to get a lot cheaper, it can’t, it won’t,' ” Huckabee said, adding that the legislation “doesn’t say what the end game is.”

    WH says Monday briefing will be off-camera. #democracyindarkness

    Trump WH appears to fear the coming serious questions concerning the Trump total failure to complete all his promises on that "great beautiful healthcare plan that is affordable, better than Obama care and covers everything including pre-existing conditions....

    This is not Trump personal campaign event. This is the WH. We are sitting in a briefing room full of cameras and taxpayer funded spokesman at podium in the "people's house"......

    They shouldn't walk out, they should record it. If the Admin challenges that or denies them access, take them to Court.

    Just to recap: The Russians can bring cameras into the Oval Office, but US media can't bring cameras for press conferences.

    FYI ===> Trusted member of Trump's inner circle has told family & friends that he knows both he & POTUS are going to prison.

    Developing ...story.....

    Just was posted by a retired NSA CI field agent who led the NSA Russian CI Division.....

    Remember when I said our Foreign Intel partners know everything about Trump?

    Yeah, that....ALL 12 of them......

    Some are now saying this Trump twitter rant is trying to get ahead of a coming major collusion leak......

    Actually what is interesting is that a twitter commenter who has been accurately leaking just before each major leak posts the words...tick, tick, tick, tick and then usually 2-6 hours later a major leak is dropped by MSM....

    Well two hours ago that same account just posted....tick, tick, tick, tick and nothing else...

    2016 hack was a long planned, well executed Russian Intel operation. It only became a conspiracy when Trump became willing participant.
