The most explosive piece of information is that “if voters were to vote primarily on the basis of their pocketbooks, the president would steamroll the competition, taking home 351 electors votes to the Democrats’ 187, assuming average voter turnout.”
The catch? Voters have to actually vote. “The report claims that if turnout among Democrats and independents match their...
Schiff pushed Volker to say Ukraine felt pressure from Trump
Volker denied that was the case, noting that Ukrainian leaders did not even know the aid was being withheld and that they believed their relationship with the U.S. was moving along satisfactorily, without them having done anything Trump mentioned in his notorious July 25 phone conversation with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.
When Volker repeatedly declined to agree to Schiff's characterization of events, Schiff said, "Ambassador, you're making this much more complicated than it has to be."
The interview took place Oct. 3 in a secure room in the U.S. Capitol. While the session covered several topics, the issue of an alleged quid pro quo — U.S. military aid in exchange for a Ukrainian investigation of the Bidens and a public announcement that such an investigation was underway — was a significant part of the discussion.
"[The Ukrainians] didn't want to be drawn into investigating a Democratic candidate for president, which would mean only peril for Ukraine, is that fair to say?" Schiff asked Volker.
"That may be true," Volker said. "That may be true. They didn't express that to me, and, of course, I didn't know that was the context at the time." (Volker has said he did not know that Trump had mentioned the Bidens on the July 25 call with Zelensky until the rough transcript of the call was released on Sept. 25.)
"Part of the other context is vital military support is being withheld from the Ukraine during this period, right?" Schiff asked.
"That was not part of the context at the time," Volker said. "At least to my knowledge, they [Ukrainian leaders] were not aware of that."
Schiff asked whether Volker had discussed the withholding of aid with...
Banished Journalist Laura Loomer Rakes in Big League Fundraising Cash for Congressional Run
When banished journalist Laura Loomer announced she was running for Congress as a Republican in Florida’s 21st U.S. House district, her campaign was immediately laughed off by fake news commentators and establishment GOP hacks.
After her the announcement of her initial fundraising numbers, they are laughing no longer. Loomer is raking in money that makes her a legitimate Congressional contender in next year’s election.
Her campaign made the announcement on Tuesday that she had raised over $154,000 in only 60 days of fundraising. She received third quarter donations from 2,314 individuals throughout the country, demonstrating her broad and diverse donor base, with the average donation being $66.
The press release issued by Loomer’s campaign noted that socialist Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) has only raised $59,000 in her first two quarters while serving as a Congresswoman. Loomer’s potential opponent in next year’s general election, Democratic incumbent Lois Frankel, raised $107,000 despite being a political veteran.
The success of Loomer’s campaign is showing that there is massive grassroots support behind the journalist, and she is being cancelled by social media because of her effectiveness.
“I’m humbled at the outpouring of support for my campaign,” Loomer said. “Despite the radical left, big tech tyrants and the fake-news media doing everything they can to hinder my campaign, this early showing puts career politician Lois Frankel and the do-nothing Democrats in congress on notice that no seat is safe and that I’m running to win. I look forward to continuing to travel the district and learning the concerns of the voters.”
“Laura is proving that she is a serious candidate and committed to flipping this seat and building the resources necessary to expose just how out of touch with the district Lois Frankel has become. I believe this will be one of the most watched congressional races for 2020 and will be a bellwether for regaining the House,” said Karen Giorno, who served as the Trump presidential campaign’s 2016 Florida state director and now works as chief strategist for the Loomer campaign.
Loomer, who has been a contributor to Big League Politics, was kicked off Twitter last year:
Investigative journalist Laura Loomer has been permanently suspended from Twitter, she confirmed in a conversation Wednesday evening with Big League Politics.
Loomer had more than 200,000 followers on the platform, making her a force to be reckoned with in a medium populated by dullard NPC’s with blue check marks next to their names.
Loomer said that she was banned for a tweet she wrote criticizing Sharia law for oppressing women and men around the world.
Loomer was thrown off of Facebook’s platform in 2018 as well:

Hunter Biden Cashed In to Fuel His Drug and Sex Habits
Ordinary Joe has an extraordinarily dirty son.
Say what you want about the Trump kids, none of them have been found with a crack pipe on them. The same can’t be said for Hunter Biden. I picked up the New York Post yesterday morning and found an informative reprint from The Intercept by Ryan Grim, who details Hunter’s dirtbaggery, including this revealing tidbit: “One particularly out-of-control bender, which included a crack pipe found in a rental car, took place while Biden was making $50,000 a month serving on the board of [the Ukrainian company] Burisma.”
Therein lies one of the obvious motives for his shameless cashing in on his last name. For years he has had a very expensive drug habit. Drugs aren’t cheap, and neither are loose women — two of Hunter’s favorite pastimes.
Earlier this year, Hunter got hit with a paternity suit by a woman in Arkansas. Then there are his Ashley Madison troubles: Hunter’s name turned up in its subscriber data after the dating site for adulterers got hacked. Popped, Hunter tried to explain it away as a dirty trick by the Russians. But reporter Patrick Howley traced the breached subscriber data back to the school where Hunter was teaching:
[A]ccount information shows that the profile, which was confirmed by a credit card purchase in 2014, was used at the latitude/longitude point of 38.912682, -77.071704. That latitude-longitude point just happens to exist on the Georgetown University campus, at an administrative building on Reservoir Road. And Hunter Biden just happened to be teaching there around the time the account was set up.Hunter didn’t let his teaching stint at Catholic Georgetown interfere with his extramarital hobbies. He also sits on the advisory board for Catholic Charities in Washington, D.C. He is a chip off the old block, wrapping himself in Catholicism while blowing off its teachings.
Not that Joe Biden is as seedy as his son, although his inability to keep his hands off women may have proved formative for young Hunter. Another poor influence on Hunter was his low-rent lobbyist uncle, James Biden, who has been cashing in on his brother’s last name for years, according to Ryan Grim: “In trading on his father’s name and power to advance his career, Hunter Biden is following in the footsteps of James Biden, Joe’s younger brother.”
At one point, Hunter and his uncle worked for the same phony-baloney financial firm — that is, until “Paradigm Global Advisors” went bust in 2010.
I had to laugh when I heard Hunter the other day on ABC say that his “experience” for his influence-peddling board work in China and Ukraine was another nepotistic gig: serving on the board of Amtrak, which is famous for indulging Joe Biden’s vanity and interests. (Also, few people would consider work for the chronically failing Amtrak as “experience” to boast.)
Hunter clearly needed the easy money to pay off his many drug debts and rehab visits. According to the New Yorker, Hunter has been to rehab at least five times and once had a crack dealer pull a gun on him. After testing positive for cocaine use, he got bounced from the Navy Reserve.
His cavortings have proven no less messy. He got sexually involved with his dead brother’s wife, then crossed the country to live in Los Angeles after the relationship dissolved, only to enter into a quickie wedding with a South African woman whom he had known for less than two weeks. ABC reported that Joe Biden told his son’s freshly minted wife, after learning of...

As their eco-protest enters its 11th day XR activists launched a co-ordinated strike on three London Underground stations, clambering on top of carriages and glueing themselves to doors despite Monday's city-wide ban issued by the Met Police.
But their efforts to disrupt public transport were met with a furious backlash from commuters, industry groups and politicians leading one XR spokesman to admit the move had been a 'huge own goal'.
Video surfaced from Canning Town station of a protester seemingly being beaten and kicked by angry workers on the station platform having been dragged bodily from the top of a train.
Eight protesters arrested this morning brings the total since last Monday to 1,711 as police warn XR's antics are pulling officers from community policing and stretching resources to breaking point.
The group's leaders have called off a planned protest at Gatwick airport 'in light of' the response to the Tube disruption and a spokesman said thr group would 'take stock' before disrupting the Underground any further.
Four people were arrested at Canning Town and Stratford and a further four were arrested at Shadwell where protesters (including 83-year-old Phil Kingston, arrested today for the 13th time this year) had glued themselves to an electric DLR train.
This morning several videos surfaced of ugly scenes at Canning Town station, showing a bearded man walking on top of the train as a crush of commuters jeer at him to get down.
One throws a cup of coffee over the protester and a group then give ...
