May 30, 2018, T+20: President Trump is tweeting again about Attorney General Jeff Sessions. Could this be the cliffhanger for this year's series of "The Apprentice"?
May 29, 2018, T+19: EU is falling apart. Italy getting ready to "Brexit."
May 28, 2018, T+18: eighteen days since Trump tore up the Obama deal to go easy on Iran, and the Mideast is about the same as ever. At least one European government has said it will continue to import Iranian oil. Tells me all I need to know about Europe.
May 27, 2018, T+17: did Pelosi et al just get played? Tea leaves suggest Trump and Kim will still meet. Facts:
- with or without the Trump-Kim summit, North Korea no longer has a viable nuclear program; their nuclear program was destroyed with the mountain collapse; they have no money, not enough time, not enough engineers to re-build their nuclear program ... ever
- the nuclear program was to prevent an invasion of North Korea; that deterrent is now gone ... forever
- Kim was "suing for peace"; he had lost the war; Kim is/was desperate to get anything in exchange for a piece of paper
- Kim's gambit with China was big mistake; never thought Trump would really walk away; Kim was looking for June 12th summit to be a negotiating summit with Trump; Trump will only settle for a done deal by the time he gets there
- Pelosi et al do not understand this
May 25, 2018, T+15: Trump walks away from the June 12, 2018, summit with Kim Jong-Un. Pelosi crows.
May 23, 2018, T+15: Jared Kushner, Trump's son-in-law, finally has security clearance. NFL owners unanimously vote to ban "kneeling" on the field. One owner reported to have said he abstained. Gee, I wonder who that could have been.
May 22, 2018, T+14: with regard to the Trans Mountain Pipeline project, it appears the inmates are in charge of the insane asylum.
May 21, 2018, T+13: all roads lead to Rome. All conspiracy dots lead to former CIA director John Brenna. Now we know why he was rabid. He is trying to stay out of jail. Planting a mole inside a legitimate political campaign. Not good.
May 20, 2018, T+12: US - China agree to "end trade war." Pre-market trading surges. Hillary spending the week at Harvard, re-living old times.
May 19, 2018, T+11: About the only thing standing in the way of a new market surge -- the trade war between the US and China.
May 18, 2018, T+10: North Korea threatens to pull out of the summit scheduled for June 12, 2018. This was reported a few days ago. This would be a great opportunity for Trump to call Kim Jong-Un's bluff and walk away from the summit. Trump can tell North Korea to let China solve its problems.
May 17, 2018, T+9: Mueller celebrates its one-year anniversary.
May 16, 2017, T+ 8: All kinds of "noise" from the mideast when the US embassy opened in Jerusalem. Today: quiet. Off the front pages. Another non-story. Apparently Jared and Ivanka got home safely.
May 15, 2018, T+7: 50 Hamas terrorists killed when they rushed the IDF. Well, duh.
May 14, 2018, T+6:
May 13, 2018, T+5: would metal detectors at public schools be "constitutional"? I don't know but this is interesting.
May 12, 2018, T+4:
May 11, 2018, T+3: Hillary "Tokyo Rose" Clinton apparently renounces US citizenship while in Australia on book-signing tour. Or maybe just sounds like she wants to renounce her US citizenship. Along with Nancy Pelosi, the gift that keeps on giving.
May 10, 2018, T+2: something to talk about. Timeline: some weeks ago, Germany's Merkel and France's Merkel came to the US to talk to President Trump about Iran; obviously, by the time they left, they would have known his position. Some days before Trump made his announcement, it was obvious Trump had made up his mind. During the 24 hours leading up to the announcement and on the day of the announcement, it was noted that SecState Pompeo was not alongside the president when the announcement was going to be made and when the announcement was made. The NYT called Pompeo AWOL for one of the most important announcements ever. In fact, Pompeo was in North Korea for at least two reasons: a) Pompeo successfully closed the deal on the release of three American prisoners and is accompanying them home to Washington, DC (they arrive "tonight" at 2:00 a.m.); and, to "finalize" the date and location of the summit between Kim Jong-Un and President Trump -- which I think is even more noteworthy and newsworthy than the Iran announcement. Fox News broke the story but the google app won't "take" links for Fox News.
May 9, 2018, T+1: first full day since President Trump walked away from the Iran deal hammered out by President Obama with $400 million in cash. This will give Rachel something to talk about. [By the way, "everyone" tells me the $400 million "belonged" to Iran; Obama was simply "unfreezing" it and sending it back to its rightful owners. That's why he did it secretly; sending the $400 million in cash in unmarked bills in a military (CIA?) C-130 transport plane, under cover of darkness, into Iran, without telling Congress. The money was delivered within the last 12 hours of his presidency, making it one of the very last acts Obama did as president. "No one" really knows who actually took possession of the $400 million.]
