SecDef Mattis: There Are No Walmarts In North Korea Only Targets
President Trump
canceled Secretary of State Mike Pompeo’s latest mission to Pyongyang, North
Korea citing the bullheadedness of Rocket Man who continues to produce fissile
material and missiles rather than working toward complete denuclearization as
agreed to in the Singapore Summit.
The Trump Administration
demanded
the North move first by providing a complete inventory of its nuclear material
and production facilities. Pyongyang countered with the demand that Washington
join South Korea in declaring an end to the Korean War. The declaration would
commit to initiating a peace process that would include military confidence
building measures to reduce the risk of deadly clashes in the contested waters
of the Yellow Sea and the DMZ.
North Korean Foreign
Minister Ri Yong Ho told Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) Foreign
Ministers, “We believe that a method involving the balanced, simultaneous,
step-by-step implementation of all terms in the Joint Statement, preceded by
the establishment of trust, is the only realistic means of achieving success.”
He emphasized the North’s “unswerving resolution and commitment to responsible,
good-faith implementation of the Joint Statement,” and the “unacceptability of
a situation in which we alone are the first to move unilaterally.”
Defense Secretary James Mattis tried to increase pressure on the North by
announcing, “We have no plans at this time to suspend any more exercises.”
While he clarified that no decision had yet been made, he also noted, “We are
going to see how the negotiations go, and then we will calculate the future,
how we go forward.”
STATEMENT FROM THE WHITE HOUSE— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) August 29, 2018
President Donald J. Trump feels strongly that North Korea is under tremendous pressure from China because of our major trade disputes with the Chinese Government. At the same time, we also know that China is providing North Korea with...
America is the most
powerful nation in the world. Our military is second to none, outspending the
next eight countries combined. Our fighting men and women are the best-trained,
most technically advanced force in history. We have thousands of nuclear
weapons and many more precision-guided conventional bombs. Our warplanes,
ships, drones and cyber capabilities are the envy of all. Most importantly, the
American experiment─one committed to democratic values and the rule of law─has
allowed us to become the world's sole superpower.
North Korea, by
contrast, is a totalitarian state that consistently fails to meet the basic
needs of its 23 million people. The United Nations World Food Program says 70%
of the North's citizens do not have enough food to eat. An estimated 25% of the
North's children are physically stunted. The country ranks 213 out of 230
countries in GDP per capita. The North does have a 1.2-million-man military;
but an International Institute of Security Studies report found that the
North's conventional forces rely on "increasingly obsolete equipment, with
little evidence of widespread modernization." In other words, their equipment
is old.
Who should be afraid of
whom?
For all its
idiosyncratic behavior, outlandish threats, actions and gruesome human rights
record, the North Korean government is not suicidal. It knows in a large-scale
confrontation with South Korea and the U.S. its leadership and the country
itself would cease to exist.

A Timeline For Clinton Crime
What we are
witnessing today is a desperate attempt to defuse the President’s efforts to
remove corrupt persons from the government. There has been almost twenty years
of criminal acts that were ignored and are now being uncovered. The following
is a timeline for some of this corruption and the network of criminal
associates who assisted the Clintons and Obamas, but we'll focus on the
Clintons.
2001
From 2001 to 2005 there
was an ongoing grand jury investigation into the Clinton Foundation .
Millions had been donated to the CF by foreign governments. Yet, from 2001 to 2003 none
of those “donations” to the Clinton Foundation were declared.
2005
·
James Comey takes over the CF grand jury
investigation.
·
Lois Lerner becomes Director of the IRS,
Exempt Organizations Unit.
·
Rod Rosenstein runs the Tax Division inside
the DoJ from 2001 to 2005.
·
Robert Mueller is the Director of the FBI
(2001-2013).
Every one of these people
were directly and intimately involved in the grand jury investigation of the
Clinton Foundation. Needless to say the grand jury investigation goes no where.
2009
James Comey leaves the DoJ
for high paying job (Senior VP and Lead Counsel) at Lockheed Martin. During his
stay at Lockheed Martin, the corporation receives $ billions in FBI government
contracts. One such contract alone was for $1 billion – IBM contested this contract. In the four years Comey was at Lockheed Martin he became a
millionaire, he was given $6 million as separation from service when he left
the company and became FBI Director.
Hillary Clinton is SecState
and starts her own personal email server for government business. She never has
an official, protected government email account.
The
Russian Rosatom subsidiary ARMZ acquires
17% of Uranium One. A year later Bill Clinton meets
with Vladamir Putin and receives $500,000 for a
speech given at Renaissance Capital (Russian
finance corporation. An FBI informant, David Campbell, was involved in the
negotiations and was issued a gag order by the DoJ – Rod Rosenstein. The FBI
Director, Robert Mueller, even delivered a uranium sample to the Russians.
Within a relatively short
period $145,000,000 was “donated” to the Clinton Foundation by corporations
connected to the Uranium One deal. Lois Lerner was still Director of the Exempt
Organizations Unit.
2015
Benghazi – Trey Gowdy
learns about Hillary’s private email server and the thousands of emails, many
classified Top Secret, she never turned over when she left the SecState Office.
James Comey is now Director of the FBI. First he exonerates Lois Lehner for her
actions targeting conservative organizations applying for tax exempt status. As
the State Department under Kerry drags its feet, Comey then prepares another
exoneration for Hillary and her illegal email server.
2016
In April 2016, Comey
drafts a letter for Hillary exonerating her of any criminal actions in her
violations of a mountain of federal laws governing the reception, storage and distribution
of classified documents. This is done before the principal players are
interviewed and many are granted immunity. Not a single Grand Jury is impaneled.
In July of 2016 Comey gives a presser that astounds the law enforcement
community. After describing a litany of felonies committed by Hillary, Comey
absolves her.
This all changed on
November 8, 2016. The Clinton Crime Syndicate is done. The players described
above have been identified and compromised by their own communications. Uranium
1, unlawful email servers used to enrich the Foundation, Benghazi – it will all
come back to haunt them.
What we are seeing from
the Mueller/Rosenstein carnival is the death throes of the Deep State. After
covering a decade of corruption and enjoying protection by the MSM, they are
finally realizing that Judgment is upon them.
2018
And now we wait. There are
nearly 50,000 sealed federal court documents (not all are indictments) awaiting
action. That’s 50X the normal level of
sealed D0J activity. Not all of it will correspond to Hillary and the Clinton
Foundation and her criminal co-conspirators, but apparently there is another Hillary Clinton investigation that was opened by the FBI. Planeloads of documents have allegedly been transported out of Arkansas.
And we haven't even touched upon the FBI and DoJ involvement in supplying false information to the FISA Court in order to spy on the Trump campaign.
Maybe later we’ll discuss
the thousands of pedophiles who no longer get a wink and a nod from the feds
and have been arrested under Trump’s DoJ. I hope many of those sealed documents
held by the DoJ relate to child sex networks.

Chicken Ala Venezuela
Thanks to years of failed socialist policies that never work, a whole chicken in Venezuela costs 14.6 million bolivars, which in US currency is about $2.22. Venezuela's economy is in a shambles and the inflation rate shows no sign of slowing down. Of course the US is blamed for this.
After being exposed to a 82,000% inflation rate, the bolivar is just about useless. And so is Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, a socialist Democrat who is running for New York's 14th Congressional District. She is so afraid of the electorate becoming aware of her socialist leanings that she has barred the media from covering her meetings.

Pop Icon Contemplates Hip Replacement
Madonna, the artist formerly known as Maria Louise Ciccone, turned sixty years of age on August 16th. Like many aging rock stars, she is starting to get a little long in the tooth.
The undisputed queen of pop has never been one to do things by halves, with a chart-topping career spanning more than three decades and a loyal army of devoted fans.
And in keeping with her reputation, Madonna is throwing an extravagant five-day bash at a Moroccan palace to celebrate her 60th birthday, and looked sensational as she partied away on the first night.
On Thursday, the Queen of Pop took to Instagram to share a trio of captivating pictures of herself enjoying her birthday celebrations, dressed in a vibrant floor-length fuchsia gown.

PLYMOUTH, Mass. — A 47-year-old man was arrested and charged with mayhem after he allegedly bit off another golfer's finger.
The incident happened just before sunset Friday at the Southers Marsh Golf Club in Plymouth.
Someone called 911 reporting that two men had gotten into a fight, and one person bit off the other's finger. When firefighters arrived at the scene, they discovered the victim had his finger bitten off to his knuckle.
Japanese Innovation: New Golden Showers Flights
Initiating a new concept in air travel, this airline has started offering unlimited free beverages for all lengthy international flights. In order to recover this increased cost, all bathroom facilities on board the aircraft have been eliminated.
An American man has been arrested for urinating on another passenger during a trans-pacific flight. The 24-year-old was flying from Chicago to Narita International Airport, in Tokyo, Japan, with All Nippon Airways (ANA) on Friday, August 17.
The victim, a 50-year-old Japanese man, stated that he had had no previous contact with the American.
He is believed to have been sitting two rows behind the suspect on the flight. Police say the American had consumed at least five glasses of champagne before the incident occurred.

The 30-year-old wheelchair-bound suspect began shooting outside the party on 43rd Street near Church Avenue in Flatbush around 2:45 a.m., authorities said.
It was not immediately clear what the man was firing at, police said.
An off-duty cop who was on the street returned fire, shooting the suspect once in the hip, authorities said.

New York State's First Clown Doesn't Measure Up To His Dad
Mario Cuomo served as the 52nd Governor of New York for three terms, from 1983 to 1994, Lieutenant Governor of New York from 1979 to 1982, and Secretary of State of New York from 1975 to 1978. He was a liberal icon who exhausted NYS residents with his incessant desire of running for President, which he never did. He was a clever man though and could talk his way through his contradictory beliefs in Catholicism and abortion without a hint of embarrassment.
His son Andrew, the current Governor of New York, lacks the political skills of his dad. Even as Attorney General of NY Andrew was more prone to putting his foot in his mouth rather than in a shoe. As Governor, his cancellation of the Moreland Commission on Public Corruption was an indication of his proclivity towards the Dark Side of politics.
Andrew Cuomo's foot-in-mouth talent was once again showcased yesterday in a bizarre public outburst.
His son Andrew, the current Governor of New York, lacks the political skills of his dad. Even as Attorney General of NY Andrew was more prone to putting his foot in his mouth rather than in a shoe. As Governor, his cancellation of the Moreland Commission on Public Corruption was an indication of his proclivity towards the Dark Side of politics.
Andrew Cuomo's foot-in-mouth talent was once again showcased yesterday in a bizarre public outburst.
Earlier in the day, the governor was signing legislation dealing with human trafficking when he took an awkward swipe at Trump’s famed campaign slogan, “Make America Great Again.”
“We’re not going to make America great again,” Cuomo said at the Lower East Side event. “It was never that great. We have not reached greatness. We will reach greatness when every American is fully engaged.”
The line went over like a lead balloon and the crowd groaned.
Cuomo even took heat from the left, with his liberal gubernatorial challenger Cynthia Nixon blasting him. “I think it’s just another example of Andrew Cuomo trying to figure out what a progressive sounds like and missing by a mile,” Nixon said.Of course President Trump had some fun with NY's First Clown.
President Trump mocked Gov. Andrew Cuomo on Wednesday for saying America “was never that great.”
[...]Can you believe this is the Governor of the Highest Taxed State in the U.S., Andrew Cuomo, having a total meltdown!” Trump tweeted in the wake of Cuomo’s gaffe.More here.

Boston Globe Calls For War Of Words Against President Trump
According to The
Associated Press, the Deputy Managing Editor of the editorial page of The
Boston Globe, Marjorie Pritchard, is coordinating a response to President Trump’s
“rhetoric” regarding the news media.
The Globe has reached
out to editorial boards nationwide to write and publish editorials on Aug. 16
denouncing what the newspaper called a "dirty war against the free
press."
As of Friday, Pritchard
said about 70 outlets had committed to editorials so far, with the list
expected to grow. The publications ranged from large metropolitan dailies, such
as the Houston Chronicle, Minneapolis Star Tribune, Miami Herald and Denver
Post, to small weekly papers with circulations as low as 4,000.
Pritchard suggested
editorial boards take a common stand against Trump's words regardless of their
politics, or whether they generally editorialized in support of or in
opposition to the President's policies.
Pritchard said she
hoped the editorials would make an impression on Americans.
"I hope it would
educate readers to realize that an attack on the First Amendment is
unacceptable," she said. "We are a free and independent press, it is
one of the most sacred principles enshrined in the Constitution."
Oh, honey. It will
make an impression. Studies
conducted by the Pew Research Center, Media Research Center and the liberal
Shorenstein Center on Media, Politics and Public Policy show coverage of President
Trump is overwhelmingly negative.
That’s not surprising, given that other surveys show that the vast majority of
reporters, editors and commentators hold liberal political views.
These failing newspapers
think Trump can’t possibly win a fight with the people who buy ink by the
barrel and paper by the roll.
Trump drives them bonkers
with his contempt of them and is an enormous threat to their liberal world
view. He is actually governing in a mostly conservative manner by cutting taxes
and reducing regulations, appointing conservative judges and breaking with
tradition in foreign affairs. So, not only do the media hate his personality, they
hate his governance. They are near
hysteria.
NOTE FROM OUR ATTORNEY: The
front page depicted above is no more dishonest than the paper itself. At least we didn’t hire a woman named Patricia
Smith who lied about people and made up quotations which forced her to
resign. Nor did we employ a disgraced Globe columnist, Mike Barnicle (now with
MSNBC) who
plagiarized a George Carlin book and made up false tear-jerker
stories about two children hospitalized with cancer.
In 2004, the Globe apologized
for printing graphic photographs that the article represented as showing U.S.
soldiers raping Iraqi women during the Iraq War. The photos had already
been found by other news organizations to be from
an internet pornography site.
The paper was also forced
to retract a story describing the events of a seal hunt near Halifax,
Nova Scotia that took place on April 12, 2005. Written by freelancer Barbara
Stewart, a former New York Times staffer, the article described the
specific number of boats involved in the hunt and graphically described the
killing of seals and the protests that accompanied it. Extreme weather delayed the hunt which had no
yet taken place proving the details of the story were a lie.
We’re Not Going To Build An Arby’s On Pluto
“Our wretched species
is so made that those who walk on the well-trodden path always throw stones at
those who are showing a new road.”─Voltaire
For decades,
America’s satellites like the Titan, Delta and Atlas series have
circled the Earth at a largely safe distance from geopolitics. These satellites
provide reconnaissance, surveillance, global positioning, navigation and early
warning missile detection.
An informal global
moratorium on the testing of anti-satellite weapons had held since 1985; the
intervening decades had been a period of post–Cold War peace—and unquestioned
American supremacy—high overhead. During those decades, satellites had become
linchpins of the American military apparatus and the global economy.
By 2007, ships at sea
and warplanes in the air had grown reliant on instant satellite communications
with ground stations thousands of miles away. Government forecasters relied on
weather satellites; intelligence analysts relied on high-resolution imagery to
anticipate and track adversaries the world over. GPS had become perhaps the
single most indispensable global system ever designed by humans—the
infrastructure upon which the rest of the world’s infrastructure is based.
On the afternoon of
January 11, 2007, California’s Vandenberg Air Force Base began getting readouts
from China’s Xichang Satellite Launch Center.
A missile rose into low-Earth orbit closing in on an aging Chinese
weather satellite. Then the 30th Space
Wing of the Air Force Space Command (AFSPC) telescopes showed a bright flash.
The test raised concern
in Washington, where officials and analysts interpreted it as a signal by China
that U.S. military satellites could be vulnerable to attack.
Not only was this an astonishing
technological achievement—to launch a missile from the ground and hit a
celestial target moving as fast as 17,000 mph—it also showed a level of rashness
not seen in space for decades.
China has embarked on
an accelerated military modernization program, repeatedly emphasizing its
desire to be able to compete in 21st Century warfare. The Chinese military,
which runs that country’s space program, has identified space-based
communications and sensing systems as key to such efforts. Some Chinese
military theorists also have advocated asymmetrical warfare, in which pinpoint
weapons would be used to disrupt the more advanced and better-equipped U.S.
military.
In the years since, the
U.S. quietly made a series of decisions—involving procedures, promotions, and
the deployment of new sensors and devices in outer space, most of them highly
classified—that began to address the problem. Meanwhile, China and several other countries
have built up their capabilities—with traditional and cyber weapons—against not
only satellites but the ground stations that receive and transmit the data.
Popular Science notes, “While
the vast majority of operating satellites and satellite constellations are
commercial, governmental, or civil (around 1,374 satellites as of September
2017, according to a database maintained by the Union of Concerned
Scientists) there are many military satellites in space (about 363). When it
comes to military satellites, the United States already has numbers on its
side. Of those military satellites, 157 are owned by the U.S., a number that
dwarfs China’s 57 and Russia’s 83.
According to a published
report from Space
News, in April of this year Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats
warned China, Russia and Iran are developing space-based surveillance,
navigation and anti-satellite systems challenging America’s dominance in outer
space.
On the issue of whether
foreign adversaries have the technology to take down U.S. satellites, Coats
cited a report
his office released in February, “Worldwide Threat Assessment of the U.S.
Intelligence Community.”
Todd Harrison, Director
of the Aerospace Security Project at the Center for Strategic and International
Studies in Washington, says there are effectively four categories of space
weapons: kinetic (aimed at destroying a satellite), non-kinetic (aimed at
disabling a satellite without touching it), electromagnetic (aimed at interfering
with a satellite’s signals), and cyber (aimed at corrupting the data sent to a
satellite).
Have the Russians
restarted a program it shut down after the end of the Cold War known as Satellite
Killer?
The last time an arms
race appeared poised to overtake space, the world’s superpowers banded together
to sign the 1967 Outer Space Treaty, which banned weapons of mass destruction
in space and held that “the moon and other celestial bodies” should be reserved
for peaceful purposes. The Outer Space Treaty is still in force, but it is by
now full of holes. Legal scholars had a hard time proving that China’s 2007
anti-satellite test, for instance, violated the agreement. That’s because the
missile that China fired was not technically addressed in the 50-year-old
treaty.
The astounding
ignorance of the fruitcake Left like Stephen Colbert and the
baby killers of Planned
Parenthood is a shining example of wanton denial of a legitimate threat to
national security. The evidence is
everywhere. They can hide in their
spider holes and mock this President all they want.
Mr. Trump is acting on
a verifiable threat that the swamp has chosen to willfully dismiss since
2007. He is preparing this country for a
possible attack that would leave our country in disarray and make us helpless. His Space Force is being tasked with the
urgent priority of figuring out how to prevent that threat.
At 5:00 AM this morning
The
Washington Free Beacon published a report warning, “China has conducted a
flight test of a new hypersonic missile capable of carrying a nuclear warhead
against advanced missile defenses, according to U.S. officials.”
The flight test of the
Xingkong-2 or Starry Sky-2 missile was disclosed by Chinese state media and
touted as an ultra-high-speed missile capable of thwarting missile defense
systems.
Space-based defenses
could be used to counter the high-speed missiles. "The utility of space
for hypersonic defense is in the indications of warning, the launch detection,
the surveillance, acquisition, tracking—the whole arena of persistent global timely
awareness," said Undersecretary of Defense for Research and Engineering
and former NASA Administrator Michael Griffin.

That Was A Rake You Stepped On Honey
CNN scripted reader
Alisyn Camerota got a little snotty on Tuesday following a brief report about a
severe hailstorm hitting the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo in Colorado Springs,
CO. She wondered how some people still
don't think "climate change is necessarily happening."
Fellow scripted reader
John Berman alerted viewers about large chunks of hail that hammered the
area on Monday, killing two animals at the zoo and injuring 14 people.
Camerota frowned at the
footage of hail splashing into the water at a bear habitat and remarked
sarcastically, "Is it August in Colorado as well?"
"I believe it has
reached August there," Berman said.
Insane video of baseball size hail hitting the bear exhibit at Cheyenne Mountain Zoo this afternoon. Such a scary situation for all of the people and animals involved. Video credit: Christine Barkalow #cowx pic.twitter.com/LeC1tKzkb9— Jessica Lebel (@JessicaLebelWX) August 7, 2018
Those who worship at
the altar of anthropogenic climate change are
convinced the global relevance of hail and a worldwide warming climate
increase the chances of hailstorms and morons like Camerota spit out climate
change drivel robotically.
Erie Insurance
published a report stating, “Each year, hailstorms lead to crop and property
damage across the United States. While every state can be the target of a
hailstorm, some states are more at risk than others.”
“Landlocked states in
the Great Plains and the Midwest are most frequently impacted by hailstorms.
That’s because hail commonly occurs in regions where the air’s freezing
altitude dips below 11,000 feet.”
“The region where
Nebraska, Colorado and Wyoming meet tops the list as the most common location
for hailstorms. It is appropriately known as Hail Alley. Hailstorms can occur
during the spring, summer or fall months. The majority of these storms appear
between May and September.”
And according to 9News.com
in Denver, “Hail is something that Coloradans are very familiar with. Part of
the Interstate 25 corridor, including Denver, gets more hail storms than
anywhere else in the country.”
“A report from the
Storm Prediction Center shows the area from the Denver Metro to Colorado
Springs gets an average of 13 large hail events every year. That's more than
most areas in the Central Plains known as "Hail Alley" and equal to
the number of severe hail days in southwestern Kansas.”
“If you count days that
any size hail occurs, you could call the Front Range the 'Second Hail Alley'”.
“The Front Range, the
High Plains just east of the Rocky Mountains definitely leads the country in
those types of days. Anywhere between 12 and 15 days a year in that area,” said
Paul Schlatter, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Boulder.
Colorado Springs (elevation
6,035 feet above sea level) and Denver (5,280 feet) are both seated much higher
than cities like Oklahoma City. This means as hail falls out of a storm below
the freezing level, it doesn't have as far to travel down to the ground and so
not as much of the hailstone will melt. This is why “Hail Alley” and the “Front
Range” get so much more hail compared to other cities; they’re physically much
closer to the storm and the hail stays frozen long enough to be damaging.
The geologic age of the
Rocky Mountains varies based on location. The youngest parts were uplifted 100
million to 65 million years ago during the close of the Mesozoic Era or what is
commonly known as the Age of Reptiles, whereas the older parts rose 600 million
years ago.
Al “ManBearPig” Gore predicted
the polar ice caps would melt by 2014. Didn’t happen. If you want to know what the weather will be
like tomorrow ask your local weatherman, but if you want to know if it’s going
to rain two weeks from now forget about it.
That’s not how the weather works.
I blame those damned
dinosaurs for not stopping that cataclysmic asteroid that messed with Earth’s
climate for 100,000 years after impact.
No wonder they died out. Big
dummies!
Weather is gonna
weather. Climate change is a natural
phenomenon millions of years old.

BREAKING: Johnny Manziel Gets Transferred To The WNBA
While we’re just days away from Week One of the NFL Preseason
here in America, our neighbors to the North are already in Week 8 of their
football season enjoying their Molsons and poutine watching all nine teams in
the CFL.
Why bring up Canadian football? Johnny Manziel.
For the record, I despise that prick. He
abuses women, alcohol and drugs
and doesn’t give a whit about team rules and policies.
During a January 2015 interview
conducted by ESPN with
nearly 20 Browns sources, both on the record and on condition of anonymity along
with several NFL personnel sources it was revealed that Manziel’s year-long
pattern of behavior demonstrated a lack of commitment and preparation and a
steadfast commitment to a raucous nightlife.
As one player put it, Manziel throughout the entire 2014 season was “100
percent joke.”
In an April 2018 interview with sports talk
show host Dan Patrick, Manziel admitted, “If Cleveland did any of their homework,
they would have known that I was a guy that didn’t come in every day and watch
film. I was a guy that didn’t really know the X’s and O’s of football. Nobody
was there, like helping me go over the X’s and O’s, and it was hard. I
struggled.”
On February 28th of
this year he tweeted,
“I’ll play again for FREE. It’s not about the money it’s about getting back to
doing what I miss and love.”
On May 19, 2018 Manziel
signed a CFL contract to play for the Hamilton Tiger-Cats setting up his return
to professional football after a three-year hiatus.
The CFL teams are
filled with players either unnoticed or unwanted by the NFL. The Tiger-Cats
CEO, Scott Mitchell said, “Our league has historically been a league of second
chances.
Hamilton made Manziel
an offer: two years at $122,000 in base salary, plus $18,000 in housing,
$10,000 to sign and performance incentives that can tick the total value north
of $300,000─a pittance compared to the monies the Cleveland Browns were scheduled
to pay him. His 2014 rookie 4-year contract
of $8.247 million included $6.702 million in guaranteed money.
Because he got into
trouble (suspension imposed by the League under any policy, a suspension
imposed by the team, failure or refusal to report, practice or play, or leaving
the team without prior written consent) the Browns were allowed to void the
final two years of his contract.
On July 22, 2018 the Tiger-Cats traded Manziel to the
Montreal Alouettes and last Friday the Alouettes lost to the Tiger-Cats
50-11. Manziel was a disaster throwing 4
interceptions and completing 11 of 20 passes for a meager 104 yards.
The NFL is unlikely to
take another shot at Manziel given the way things went in his two calamitous years
at Cleveland. His first game in the CFL didn’t offer a ton of hope he can make
it in Canada either.
— YourSports (@YourSports) August 5, 2018
NOTE FROM OUR ATTORNEY:
Mr.
Manziel has not been transferred to the WNBA.
He is actually being traded to the Mumbai Rockets of the Premiere
Badminton League. No wait, that’s not true either. He is in serious talks with the World Mini
Golf Federation to hand out balls and clubs and sharpen pencils for the
scorecards.
