A Speed Lane For Trump Nominees?
There are currently almost 150 of President Trump’s judicial nominees awaiting confirmation (you can see a full list of them here) and while some progress has been made in clearing the backlog, Republicans are looking to speed up the process. With Democrats running out the clock for a full thirty hours of post-cloture debate and delay on what used to be a fairly normal, non-controversial process, the system has turned into a procedural quagmire.
With that in mind, some members are pushing for another rendition of the nuclear option, shortening the debate time for judicial nominees below the appellate level and executive branch nominees below the cabinet level. If approved, a simple majority vote would allow the process to be completed. (The Hill)
A group of Republican senators wants to press the button on a new “nuclear option” that would limit debate time on President Trumps nominees.
The controversial move would hasten the pace of the president’s nominees getting confirmed and curtail Democratic power in the upper chamber.
Senate leaders have twice used the nuclear option to facilitate action on nominees in recent years.
In 2013, then-Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) stripped the minority of the power to...
REPORT: Former FBI Asst Director Suggests Obama, Brennan Committed Felonies, Not Flynn
At the start of this week, former FBI Assistant Director James Kallstrom suggested to Fox News' Maria Bartiromo that former President Barack Obama and former CIA Director John Brennan committed felonies and not Gen. Michael Flynn.
Kallstrom said that "high-ranking people throughout the government ... had a plot to not have Hillary Clinton indicted so that she could remain the flawed candidate that she was," RCP reported.
Kallstrom cited text messages from anti-Trump FBI agent Peter Strzok as evidence that the administration "had a backup plan to frame Donald Trump."
"My sources tell me [Brennan] was leaking almost weekly or daily, and he was taking that bunch of phony crap supposedly from Russia, and peddling that through the Congress and the media, he was one of the active people," said Kallstrom. "I've known him a long time and I think he's involved, and quite frankly, I think it goes right to the top, quite frankly."
Bartiromo responded by asking, "To President Obama?"
"It goes right to the top, and it involves that whole strategy. They were going to win [the 2016 election], nobody would ever know this stuff, and they just unleashed the intelligence community," Kallstrom continued.
"I hope Gen. Flynn sues a lot of people, because he was handled so bad. ... He didn't lie to the FBI. They didn't even interview him about a crime. He was in his legal authorized mode when all that happened," Kallstrom said.
"They are the people who committed felonies, not the general," Kallstrom suggested, apparently referring to Brennan and Obama. "They've ruined [Flynn] — and because they threatened his son, you know, they...(see video)

As Their Attempted Coup Against Trump Fails Former Obama CIA Director John Brennan & His Deep State Cohorts Squeal Even Louder
John Brennan is a former/current communist (it’s true!) who has long embraced the idea of globalism at the expense of American sovereignty. How a former commie became the head of the Obama CIA is another matter altogether. For now, we’ll focus on an excellent column out today via The American Spectator that outlines the animosity now publicly spilling out from Mr. Brennan as he copes with his repeated failures to overthrow the Trump presidency:
It is no coincidence that John Brennan, who supported the Soviet-controlled American Communist Party in the 1970s (he has acknowledged that he thought his vote for its presidential candidate Gus Hall threatened his prospects at the CIA; unfortunately, it didn’t), would borrow from Trotsky’s rhetoric in his fulminations against Donald Trump. His tweet last week, shortly after the firing of Andrew McCabe, reeked of Trotskyite revolutionary schlock: “When the full extent of your venality, moral turpitude, and political corruption becomes known, you will take your rightful place as a disgraced demagogue in the dustbin of history. You may scapegoat Andy McCabe, but you will not destroy America… America will triumph over you.”
America will triumph over a president it elected? That’s the raw language of coup, and of course, it is not the first time Brennan has indulged it. In 2017, he was calling for members of the executive branch to defy the chief executive. They should “refuse to carry out” his lawful directives if they don’t agree with them, he said.
Trump has said that the Russians are “laughing their asses off” over the turmoil caused by Obamagate. No doubt many of the laughs come at the sight of Brennan, a supporter of Soviet stooges like Gus Hall, conducting a de facto coup from the top of the CIA and then continuing it after his ouster. Who needs Gus Hall when John Brennan is around? This time the Russians don’t even have to pay for the anti-American activity.

Police Release Video Of Driverless Uber Slamming Woman Crossing Road [VIDEO]
Police in Tempe, Ariz., released video of an autonomous Uber SUV hitting and killing a woman who was crossing the street Wednesday, the first video of the crash.
In the dashboard camera footage, 49-year-old Elaine Herzberg can be seen crossing the road Sunday evening with her bicycle moments before impact, with the car making no apparent effort to stop.
A second angle shows an operator in the driver’s seat of the SUV, required in the driverless test vehicles, looking into his phone and becoming startled at the impact. Police did not share video of the actual hit, “due to the graphic nature of the impact,” according to Fox News.
WATCH:
Police say the vehicle was traveling around at 38 mph in a 35 mph zone along the unlit road, and Herzberg was not walking on a crosswalk. Two experts told the Associated Press that the Volvo’s laser sensors should have been able to see the woman and at least attempt to brake.
“It absolutely should have been able to pick her up,” Sam Abuelsamid, an analyst for Navigant Research studying driverless cars, told the AP. “From what I see in the video it sure looks like the car is at fault, not the pedestrian.”
Uber has suspended testing of all vehicles across the country, and after...

Why We Cannot Trust the FBI
The FBI is discounting ISIS’ claim that the Las Vegas attack was jihad. But is the FBI really trustworthy?
The Islamic State says Steven Paddock converted six months ago. He filmed himself killing; jihadis do that and post it online. The attack was meticulously planned, as jihad attacks are, and Paddock likely had an accomplice. Paddock made numerous trips to the Middle East. Over200 of his foreign financial transactions were flagged for possible “covert terrorism financing.”
Contrary to the ignorant, misinformed and delusional talking heads in the media, ISIS does not take responsibility for events that are not theirs. This has led even the New York Times’ terrorism expert to give credence to ISIS’ claims. The Philippines attack at Resorts World Casino was theirs. And there again, ISIS’ initial claims of responsibility were dismissed.
The Los Angeles Times reported Saturday that “the FBI investigated the Orlando mass shooter for 10 months -- and found nothing.”
The Orlando jihadi who opened fire on gay nightclub revelers at the Pulse Nightclub called 911 during the attack and pledged his allegiance to the Islamic State. The FBI investigated the Orlando mass shooter for 10 months and found nothing.
The FBI was warned of the Muslim Boston bombers -- multiple times -- and did nothing. Their inaction led to the Boston Marathon bombings.
And in another case, an FBI translator married the ISIS fighter that she was supposed to be investigating.
The FBI was in on the planning of the jihad attack against the Garland Muhammad art expo in Garland, Texas. They did nothing to stop it, not even giving us a warning that my event was targeted by devout Muslims who meant to kill us Charlie Hebdo-style. We killed those jihadis. It was the security team I hired to protect my event that saved...
