  James Comey skipping Senate Intel hearing, won’t testify

  May 13, 2018

  Photo - NTK Network Video

  James Comey has announced that he won’t be attending the Senate Intelligence Committee hearing on Russian meddling next week. 
  

  Apparently, he has “previous engagements.”
  

  What is he doing?

  I can’t imagine what prior engagements are important enough for him to avoid testifying about a mess he helped create.
  Maybe he has a book signing event, as he continues to hawk his “memoir” across America. He’s already made millions from the book, but he seems to have a bottomless appetite for fame and publicity.
  

  The committee is investigating allegations of Russia meddling in the 2016 election — a topic that has dominated the news cycle for over a year now.
  At issue is whether the heads of the top law enforcement agencies, including Comey’s FBI, practiced faulty “tradecraft” and failed to keep America safe from Russian interference.
  It certainly appears that they didn’t do a great job protecting us. What’s their excuse?
  

  Other members of the Deep State, including James Clapper and John Brennan, are going to be there.
  Why not Comey?
  

  Running from accountability

  Maybe Comey doesn’t want to testify because he wants to conceal the fact that he was asleep at the helm of America’s premier law enforcement agency while the Russians blatantly tried to influence the election.
  

  Is James Comey a disgrace?

  • Yes
  • No

  Democrats hold Comey up as a hero while smearing Trump over Russia. But Comey is the one who actually had some responsibility to stop the Russians from meddling and didn’t. Now he doesn’t want to face the music.
  He’s a vain, primping, fame-hungry wannabe celebrity, and this latest move just proves it.
  

   

  Hillary Clinton slammed Trump’s North Korea approach as “not useful” just months ago

  May 13, 2018

  Hillary Clinton is rarely right about anything. In fact, she’s made being comically wrong almost an art form.
  

  She’s the Picasso of poor predictions, the Mozart of missing the boat, the Da Vinci of dumb decision making. You get the point.
  So it shouldn’t surprise anyone that she was dead wrong about Trump’s strategy on North Korea. 
  

  Oops…

  It happened on The View, a show that is usually so idiotic that it takes a special brand of crazy to stand out.
  

  Hillary delivered.
  When asked by Joy Behar about President Trump’s alleged “saber-rattling” towards North Korea, Hillary went on the record:
  “North Korea, this is a very serious issue. What I’m most critical of is that you cannot deal with North Korea unless you deal with our allies.”
  

  She added:
  “It doesn’t help for the President on Twitter to insult South Korea. It is not useful in our trying to bring people together to deal with what is a very serious threat to our own national security.”
  Not useful, she says.
  

  Watch here (Hillary starts talking about North Korea at 2:22):
  

  Come again?

  Trump’s approach wasn’t “useful” in “bringing people together?” Really?
  Just a few months later, North Korea has promised to destroy its nuclear arsenal in full view of foreign journalists.
  They’ve promised to meet with President Trump at a summit conference to discuss the future.
  They released American prisoners they held for years.
  And they declared an end to the decades-long war with South Korea.
  Seems like Trump’s approach was rather productive. It seems like he knows what he’s doing after all.
  

  Is Hillary the most incompetent politician since Jimmy Carter?

  • Yes
  • No

  That’s more than you can say for Hillary. Even for her, this is embarrassing.
  If she had a legacy to destroy, this would do it. Thank God she’s not in charge of anything.
