Cohen, who once stated he would take a bullet for Trump, flipped on his former boss in a dramatic courtroom appearance that went down just as news emerged that former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort…
By Larry Klayman RenewAmerica August 21, 2018 There has been a feeding frenzy in the media this week about President Donald J. Trump’s order removing the national security clearance of former Obama Director of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), as well as his announced review to consider removing the national security clearances of others related to the Fusion GPS and Christopher Steele dossier and related Clinton-Democrat scandals. Fox News, true to form, hyped this minimal act by the president, characteristically to boost its television ratings and thus “jingle” more change out of the deep pockets of its advertisers. Where…
Giuliani walks back ‘truth isn’t truth’ comment By Stephanie Murray POLITICO August 20, 2018 President Donald Trump’s lawyer Rudy Giuliani tried to walk back his statement over the weekend that “truth isn’t truth,” writing on Twitter that it wasn’t meant to be taken as a “pontification on moral theology.” Giuliani made waves on NBC’s “Meet the Press” on Sunday, responding to a New York Times report that the president’s outside legal team was not aware of the extent to which White House counsel Don McGahn cooperated in special counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia investigation during the 30 hours of…
Kimmel Writer Offers the Stupidest Reason Ever For Michelle Wolf’s Show Getting Canceled Daily Wire August 20, 2018 On Sunday, a mere two days after it was announced that noted Sarah Sanders critic and faux comedienne Michelle Wolf had suffered the indignity of having her Netflix show canceled, Bess Kalb, writer for Jimmy Kimmel, the Emmys and the Oscars, offered the dumbest explanation yet most predictable reason for the cancellation: Michelle Wolf’s cancellation goes to show if you’re a talk show host with great jokes and perfect sketches, it’s best if you’re not a woman. — Bess Kalb…
Opinion | How America’s Jews Learned to Be Liberal By Steven R. Weisman New York Times August 19, 2018 A startling opinion survey released this summer revealed just how wide is the rift between the world’s two largest Jewish communities. Israelis approve of President Trump’s handling of United States-Israeli relations by 77 percent, which is hardly surprising for the most pro-Israel occupant of the White House in many years. But only 34 percent of American Jews feel the same way, and 57 percent disapprove of Mr. Trump’s approach to Israel, according to the same poll, which was taken…

Appearing on “Meet the Press,” Brennan blasted the move as an example of Trump’s “egregious abuse of power and authority.” And he said that he’s considering legal options to possibly get an injunction to stop Trump from pulling clearances from critics in the future.

Shapiro At ‘Newsweek’: Which Liar Should You Believe? Daily Wire August 18, 2018 Who do you believe when everyone is a proven liar? That’s exactly the prospect facing Americans asked to choose between Donald Trump, Omarosa Manigault, and members of the mainstream media. Trump, of course, fibs routinely, on matters both great and small.

And the members of the media, who purport to tell us the truth in objective…
