WASHINGTON, DC—Field Reporter Ivan Ivanovitch Ivanov just
filed a report revealing Russia’s ambassador to the US, Sergey Kislyak, has an
open social calendar now that no one in The Beltway will talk to him.
Ivanov also notes
Bullwinkle Moose confessed he had recently spoken with noted Russian spies Boris
Badenov and Natasha Fatale. He has agreed to recuse himself from the next
cartoon. It was either recuse himself or
report to the nearest railroad station for transport to a Russian gulag.
Chuck Schumer is
arrogant, overbearing and self-assured.
Yesterday the senator from the Great State of New York pronounced to the
entire world Attorney General Jeff Sessions should resign his post in the Trump
Administration as head of the Department of Justice.
"There cannot be
even the scintilla of doubt about the impartiality and fairness of the attorney
general, the top law enforcement official of the land," Schumer said.
"Because the Department of Justice should be above reproach, for the good
of the country Attorney General Sessions should resign."
With those words, Schumer
didn't just dig himself a hole, he stole a backhoe, dug a really deep hole,
drove the backhoe into the hole, wired the backhoe with explosives and blew it
up.
Relying on published
reports from The Washington Post and The New York Times was an intellectually
bankrupt approach given the fact the pages of The New York Times was the cheering section for one of the 20th
Century’s most murderous dictators. Few
readers today will remember Walter
Duranty; the man history has catalogued as the sycophantic apologist for
Josef Stalin’s genocide in the Ukraine.
He covered Stalin’s show trials of his enemies in the 1930s as if the
trials were legitimate and dismissed out-of-hand his many thousands of
executions and purges. Duranty was
typical of those who look for wickedness in the wrong place and cannot see it
at the end of their noses.
Schumer’s beef
concerns two meetings then-Senator Jeff Sessions had with Sergey Kislyak, Russia’s
ambassador to the United States.
As I
noted yesterday, more than 30 Democrat senators met with Russian diplomats
and foreign officials from the Middle East.
Since then The
Daily Caller discovered Visitor Logs showing Ambassador Kislyak visited
the White House at least 22 times between 2009 and 2016 during the reign of
Teleprompter Jesus.
Also emerging
yesterday was a photograph of Kislyak attending President Trump’s address to
the Joint Session of Congress on Tuesday, February 28, 2017.
Lynch had contended
that she and Bill Clinton merely discussed grandchildren, golf and social
matters.
"She's an
honorable person, we know that," Schumer said. "She has said nothing
was discussed related to the investigation. So you have two choicesto
say this didn't matter or she's lying. I think it didn't matter. I don't
think she's lying."
What would the good
senator say if Attorney General Sessions had met with Vladimir Putin?
Let’s ask him right
now.
Wait. A. Minute. That’s
not Jeffrey Beauregard Sessions III.
That’s a photograph
of Chuckles from September 26, 2003. The
article from The
New York Post reads:
In possibly the
greatest show of political power ever to attend the grand opening of a gas
station, Russian President Vladimir Putin showed up in Chelsea yesterday with
Sen. Chuck Schumer to help inaugurate the first Russian-owned chain of
petroleum stops in America.
There was no ribbon-cutting at the opening of the Lukoil
station at 10th Avenue and 24th Street, but the diminutive Russian leader shook
hands with nervous-looking employees, drank a cup of coffee—spiked
with skim milk—and sampled a Krispy
Kreme doughnut in the station’s Kwik Farms convenience store.
Schumer said the Russian-drilled petroleum from Lukoil—which
bought out Getty Petroleum Marketing Inc. in 2000—would
be a boon the United States because it could help free America from dependence
on oil from the OPEC nations, many of which are hostile Middle Eastern states.
A CNN crew attended
Zakharova’s weekly briefing in Moscow on Thursday, but asked no questions at
the session itself about a fresh report by CNN, which said “current and
former US intelligence officials have described Kislyak as a top spy and
recruiter of spies.”
Shortly after the
noon hour yesterday, the Chair of the House Intelligence Committee, Devin Nunes
(R-CA) cautioned reporters to “be careful what you ask for” during a discussion
of FBI phone records implying reporters themselves or “other Americans” could
become the target of congressional investigations should phone records implicate
them.
“…for example, [if] you were on the phone with
the Russian ambassador and somehow your phone call got recorded, would you want
them turning over that phone call and that transcript to the committee?” Nunes asked.
“But isn't there a
difference between a call between a private person?” a reporter who is clearly
an intellectual midget countered.
“That's the point
here. General Flynn was a private American citizen,” Nunes said. “Look, I'm sure
some of you are in contact with the Russian embassy, so be careful what you ask
for here because if we start getting transcripts of any of you or any other
Americans talking to the press, then we can – do you want us to conduct an
investigation on you or other Americans because you were talking to the Russian
embassy? I just think we need to be careful.”
