ICYMI==> AMBUSHED? Sentencing memo sheds new light on what Andrew McCabe told Michael Flynn before FBI interview https://t.co/e4sc28Hfs3

— Twitchy Team (@TwitchyTeam) December 12, 2018

On January 24, 2017, FBI agents Peter Strzok and Joe Pientka interviewed Flynn.
On August 2, 2017, Rosenstein issued new instructions to Mueller.
On August 16, 2017, ABC News reported Peter Strzok had been fired by Mueller.
On August 22, 2017, the FBI 302 on Flynn was written.

— Sean Davis (@seanmdav) December 12, 2018

And why was the 302 of Flynn's interview not written/finalized until after Peter Strzok was removed from the Mueller probe for inappropriate behavior? Was Pientka ordered to rewrite the 302 and remove Strzok's name from it? These seem like questions we should have answers to.

— Sean Davis (@seanmdav) December 12, 2018

Good grief. It's not Flynn working with Horowitz, Huber or *anyone* related.... 🙄 It's very simple actually: the documents that Flynn's defense team cited were documents they received from Robert Mueller. See footnote #20. pic.twitter.com/6qQP3rWNhI

...And that means that regarding the question of how much cooling we’d get by 2050 if the US stopped emitting CO2 entirely, the real-world answer is … no perceptible difference at all. None. Far too small for anyone to sense directly. Far too small to register on your outdoor thermometer. The US could go to zero emissions and in 2050 we’d never notice the temperature difference.

So the next time someone tries to get you to sign on to yet another brilliant plan that the US is supposed to sign on to in order to “reduce our carbon footprint”, like the plans for everyone in the US to stop eating meat or to stop flying in airplanes or to buy electric cars or to cover half the US landscape with solar panels or to tax energy until the poor people put on yellow vests and throw rocks … well, the next time one of those charming folks proposes one of those plans, all of which come with a multi-billion dollar price tag, feel free to point them to this analysis and tell them “Even cutting US emissions to zero will make no perceptible difference by 2050! None!”.

Trump was right -- transparency a good thing in border wall debate with Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer https://t.co/rEN9JWJV8y

Pelosi and Schumer didn’t want President Trump to debate the wall in public. They kept calling for their buddies, the press, to leave. It wasn’t because they were going to argue principles. The swamp creatures didn’t want you to see them horse trade for favors and pork.

— MARK SIMONE (@MarkSimoneNY) December 12, 2018

Did you notice how every time President Trump started to debate the border crisis, both Pelosi and Schumer said “let’s not debate this in front of the press.” What does that tell you? They’re even afraid to let their allies in the press hear what they were going to say.

5️⃣🖐 jaw-dropping moments from Trump's WILD meeting with Pelosi and Schumer https://t.co/ZQyM3wUpXI

— Conservative Review (@CR) December 12, 2018

So what did we learn?

First, Trump and the Democratic leaders are living in different realities on wall funding. There’s likely not much room for compromise there. The Democrats got what they want when Trump said he’d take the blame for a shutdown. Trump got what he wanted by putting them on the spot in front of television cameras. After this performance, it’s hard to imagine either side backing down from a government shutdown.

Second, Pelosi and Schumer do not want this debate to air in front of the press. It’s harder to cast Trump as a villain when he’s in the same room insisting on protecting Americans from violent criminal illegal aliens and drug-pushing gangs.

Third, though the media hate this president because he insults them, he once again proved he is the most transparent and media-friendly American president in living memory. Can you imagine any other president allowing this debate to play out in front of the press?

You want to know why Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer wanted to kick the press out of their meeting with @realDonaldTrump?

It's because they don't want the public to hear how weak they are on border security.

If Nancy Pelosi wanted transparency, then she and Chuck Schumer should have been OK with debating the issues about border funding out in the opening so that all Americans can see just how incompetent they are.

The result of today's "elections" only make it clear one thing: the supreme incompetence of the opposition leadership, from @MariaCorinaYA up to @hramosallup and not come to me to say that the only non-losers are the echoes.

El asunto es que poco importa quién ganó en Baruta o Tucusiapon. Igual la ANC creará el estado comunal de donde no importará quien controle alcaldías y gobernaciones.

— daniel duquenal (@danielduquenal) December 10, 2018

The point is that it doesn't matter who won in Baruta or Tucusiapon. The ANC will also create a communal state where it will not matter who controls city halls and governorates.

Lo que si importa es el silencio atronador del liderazgo opositor en cuanto se pueda hacer con la ANC. Con lo de hoy el chavismo se lanza al referendo constituyente y lo gana sin mayor trampa.
Y culpa de quien va a ser?

— daniel duquenal (@danielduquenal) December 10, 2018

What matters is the thundering silence of opposition leadership as soon as it can be done with the ANC. With Today the Chavismo is launched into the constituent referendum and wins it without further cheating.
And whose fault is it?

Missing in today’s news: any acknowledgement that @HillaryClinton & the @DNC broke campaign finance law by failing to report they paid Fusion GPS via an intermediary for oppo research that triggered an FBI investigation. You don’t see @RepAdamSchiff calling for their prosecution!
