In President Donald Trump’s first speech after a New York Times story alleged Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein had planned to surreptitiously record the commander in chief and explored the idea of invoking the 25th Amendment to have him removed from office, Trump talked of a “lingering stench” at the Department of Justice and promised more firings.

The remarks were made Friday, just hours after The Times published the article that suggested Rosenstein was willing to take measures that would be extraordinary for anyone in the Department of Justice, much less the deputy attorney general, against a sitting president.

“I want to tell you we have great people in the Department of Justice,” Trump told an audience in Springfield, Missouri, where he was campaigning for Josh Hawley, the Missouri attorney general challenging vulnerable Democrat Sen. Claire McCaskill.

“We have great people. These are people — I really believe you take a poll, I’ve got to be at 95 percent,” he said.

“But we had some real bad ones — you’ve seen what’s happened at the FBI. They’re all gone.

“But there’s a lingering stench and we’re going to get rid of that, too,” he said.

In terms of the FBI, the message was unmistakable: Former Director James Comey, former Deputy Director Andrew McCabe as well as anti-Trump FBI agent Peter Strzok and bureau lawyer Lisa Page, have all been fired or left the Bureau.

And, as for the allegations leveled at Rosenstein by The Times, they’re pretty dire.

“The deputy attorney general, Rod J. Rosenstein, suggested last year that he secretly record President Trump in the White House to expose the chaos consuming the administration, and he discussed recruiting cabinet members to invoke the 25th Amendment to remove Mr. Trump from office for being unfit,” the piece read.

“Mr. Rosenstein made these suggestions in the spring of 2017 when Mr. Trump’s firing of James B. Comey as F.B.I. director plunged the White House into turmoil. Over the ensuing days, the president divulged classified intelligence to Russians in the Oval Office, and revelations emerged that Mr. Trump had asked Mr. Comey to pledge loyalty and end an investigation into a senior aide.”

Rosenstein also reportedly “raised the idea of wearing a recording device, or ‘wire,’ as he put it, to secretly tape the president when he visited the White House. One participant asked whether Mr. Rosenstein was serious, and he replied animatedly that he was.”

Allies of Rosenstein said the comment was made in jest, and the deputy attorney general himself denied the gist of The Times’ article not once but twice.

“I will not further comment on a story based on anonymous sources who are obviously biased against the department and are advancing their own personal agenda,” a statement by Rosenstein included with the piece read. “But let me be clear about this: Based on my personal dealings with the president, there is no basis to invoke the 25th Amendment.”

A later statement by Rosenstein was more specific: “I never pursued or authorized recording the president and any suggestion that I have ever advocated for the removal of the president is absolutely false,” he said Friday night, according to Forbes.

Will that end up saving Rosenstein? He has plenty of allies among Democrats, particularly Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer.

“This story must not be used as a pretext for the corrupt purpose of firing Deputy Attorney General Rosenstein in order install an official who will allow the president to interfere with the special counsel’s investigation,” Sen. Schumer said in a statement, according to Politico.

The statement also noted that other White House members, such as Defense Secretary James Mattis and White House Chief of Staff John Kelly “have been reported to say critical things of the president without being fired.”

Yes, well, neither of them apparently wanted to wear a “wire” to record the president as if he were a criminal suspect or invoke the 25th Amendment to remove him from office.

That’s quite a different thing entirely — and it leaves a stench President Trump may be eager to remove.

California was once the envy of the nation, if not the world: Disneyland was the happiest place on earth, the beach life influenced all of American culture from fashion to music, while Silicon Valley led the way in tech.

The Golden State may not be dead, but it sure looks like it’s on life support — and its decline can be directly linked to liberal policies run amok.

Earlier this year, it was revealed that California currently has the highest poverty rate in all of America.

Illegal aliens flood across the border, contributing to shanty towns of homeless migrants and public health crises in major cities.

The job of California’s governor is to tackle the most pressing issues facing his state. Instead, Democrat Gov. Jerry Brown is focusing on the issues that really matter to his citizens: Evil plastic straws and soda pop.

TRENDING: Report: GOP Rolls Out Its Own Demands in Fiery Counteroffer to Kavanaugh Accuser

On Thursday, the liberal governor made those arcane issues top priorities when he vetoed several other measures, but signed anti-straw and anti-soda bills into law.

One of those head-scratching laws signed by Brown was Assembly Bill 1884, which makes it illegal for restaurants to give out plastic straws with meals.

Treating the humble straw as some sort of rampant tool of terrorists, Brown declared that “plastic … has become so ubiquitous it now pervades every aspect of modern life” and “has led to disastrous consequences.”

Hey, Brownie. There are piles of disease-carrying needles in your state’s once proud cities and mobs of migrants defecating in your streets. Maybe tackle that before waging a completely redundant war on plastic?

But he didn’t stop there.

Next on the agenda were pesky soda drinks sometimes enjoyed by — gasp! — children.

“Brown also signed Senate Bill 1192 that amends the California Retail Food Code to require all dine-in and fast food chains to offer milk; a non-dairy milk alternative; or sparkling, still or flavored water as a default or advertised beverage for a child’s packaged meal,” reported Breitbart News.

Like the straw crusade, the new law to keep soda out of kids’ hands will likely do little to actually improve anything.

“The bill does not prohibit a restaurant from selling, or a customer’s ability to purchase, an alternative beverage if the purchaser requests one,” Breitbart explained.

In other words, kids can still ask for soft drinks, and people can still ask for straws.

Just don’t you dare put a plastic straw in a kid’s soda — it would be really messy to clean up all the liberal heads that inevitably explode.

House Rep. Trey Gowdy, who must be seeing some things on the House Intelligence Committee as a member, told Fox News about a little noted elephant in the room surrounding the outcry over President Trump declassifying documents:

“I’ve read it. Some of it’s embarrassing for the Department of Justice — some of it’s embarrassing for the FBI. Embarrassment is not a reason to classify something,” said Gowdy. “A lot of it should be embarrassing to John Brennan, and maybe therein lies why he is so adamant that this information not be released.”

The Fox News report noted that Brennan, a former CIA director under the Obama administration was one of the loudest opponents of President Trump’s original order (since backtracked, apparently to assuage allies) to declassify documents surrounding the origins of the investigation of Donald Trump. Brennan even went so far as to tell officials to resign rather than let such a thing happen, cloaking himself in the cloak of a necessity to protect America’s secrets, with his mouth still going strong with the dagger. He had been big on yelling that President Trump is a ‘traitor,’ something he himself has backtracked on, given that it proved it wasn’t going to the government much good to allow him to keep his security clearance. The wildly loudmouthed former CIA director lost it, anyway.

Now Gowdy, a South Carolina Republican, who’s regrettably leaving Congress, and has nothing to worry about concerning the swamp leverage or retribution, is pretty well letting the cat out of the bag – that the documents expose Brennan as a complete idiot. He’s a dolt, and his dirty underwear could very easily be on display with a Trump declassification. Washington is a status-oriented place, and the exposure of Brennan as a complete fool would cut into his cocktail party invitations. Life’s tough for a swamp creature when he becomes a figure of fun. 

No wonder he’s yelling so loudly.

Gowdy says that while Trump has withheld declassifying for now, it doesn’t mean he won’t do it in the future.

That should give Brennan something to think about, awaiting that day when the president should act.

Not looking good for Dr. Ford and the Democrats.

Via Fox News:

Another person claimed by Christine Blasey Ford to have attended a gathering decades ago during which, Ford claims, she was sexually assaulted by Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh has denied any recollection of having attended the party.

In an email to the Senate Judiciary Committee on Saturday, Leland Ingham Keyser, a former classmate of Ford’s at the Holton-Arms all-girls school in Maryland, said she doesn’t know Kavanugh or remember being at the party with him.

“Simply put, Ms. Keyser does not know Mr. Kavanaugh and she has no recollection of ever being at a party or gathering where he was present, with, or without, Dr. Ford,” lawyer Howard J. Walsh III of Bethesda, Md., conveyed in an email to the committee that was obtained by Fox News.

All five witnesses Dr. Ford places at scene have weighed in, now all but Ford say the incident didn’t happen. The four she names besides herself contradict her. Last witness, Leland Keyser, says she doesn’t know #Kavanaughhttps://t.co/A0rprHEXgv #TeaParty #IStandWithBrett
— Jenny Beth Martin (@jennybethm) September 23, 2018

Politico reported that the email was in response to a letter from a lawyer for the GOP majority staff, which said: “I understand that you have been identified as an individual who was in attendance at a party that occurred circa 1982 described in a recent Washington Post article.”

In response, Ford’s lawyer Debra Katz said: “As Dr. Ford has said, she did not share her story publicly or with anyone for years following the incident with Judge Kavanaugh.

“It’s not surprising that Ms. Keyser has no recollection of the evening as they did not discuss it. It’s also unremarkable that Ms. Keyser does not remember attending a specific gathering 30 years ago at which nothing of consequence happened to her. Dr. Ford of course will never forget this gathering because of what happened to her there.”

Keyser’s denial brings to four the number of witnesses, including Kavanaugh, who’ve all said they have no memory of the party or the incident.

What the heck has gotten into Pope Francis? When he’s not letting a leftist pervert like Cardinal Theodore McCarrick pick out the archbishops, he’s letting the communists of Beijing.

According to Deutsche Welle:

Pope Francis on Saturday endorsed the legitimacy of seven Chinese bishops, appointed by Beijing without the Vatican’s approval.

The decision is part of a historic accord between the Catholic Church and China over the nomination of bishops, which is normally a papal prerogative. The issue has strained ties between the two for decades.

His betrayal of the Catholic Church in China is simply mind-blowing.

In a bid to establish diplomatic relations with China, he agreed to allow the Chinese state, run by atheistic communists, to choose the archbishops to lead the Catholic Church over there in a move that undercuts the underground Catholic Church over there, which has rejected this phony leadership for their faith.

It might not have been a complete capitulation — he reportedly may have reserved the right to veto any of the Beijing-picked candidates, so I suppose we won’t be getting an obvious comrade in a Mao suit spouting slogans. But we will probably get quite a few less obvious ones, Chinese internal intelligence agency informants, and people who subtly undermine the Church teachings itself because of their alignment to the regime.

It’s an astonishing betrayal of the millions of Catholics inside China who have carefully carried the torch as the Christian martyrs of ancient Rome once did, underground, risking their lives. They threw such people into the lion’s dens back then. Today, they throw them into the lao gai, or Chinese gulags. Yet they are all saints.

And they play an important role to Catholics in free countries. Essentially: If they can walk 20 miles to mass, and hide out from the secret police to bring the sacraments, who am I to miss mass or not perform some act of charity? This is what Catholics think when they consider the underground Church in China.

So to see them abandoned like this, after all their sacrifices to live the faith, only to see Pope Francis allow their enemy to appoint their leaders and lead their church, is horrifying. Can you imagine what they must be saying to each other?

Could there be any greater means of shrinking the Church after an act like that? As Pope John Paul has noted, the Church’s fruits in Asia have always been rather meager given the strength of the other faiths. China of course is different, given its communist embrace of enforced atheism, making it rather ripe for converts. Yet the Chinese Church got it all thrown in their faces. It rather resembles Pope Francis’s acts in Cuba, where he made common cause with the Castroites, to establish diplomatic relations, and presumably to get some Church schools and masses going, yet also unleashed a huge wave of repression on Cuba’s dissidents, particularly the Ladies in White, who have been beaten by Cuba’s goons as they walked to mass and went into the churches.

The, uh, ‘social justice’ teachings of the Church don’t seem to apply in these cases, because the Church leadership has been dead silent.

And that is what this comes down to: leadership. Who picks the bishops picks the Church leadership. Putting Beijing’s men in pretty well puts some in line to become cardinals, which in turn puts them in line to voting for the next pope. The implications of that are staggering.

What’s more, it’s part of a pattern. The pope has been roundly criticized for abandoning the Uniate Catholics of Ukraine in the interest of good relations with Moscow, and the persecuted Christians of the Middle East in the interest of good relations with the European ruling class, which favors Muslim immigration to Europe. Tha abandonment of China’s Christians, who have carried the torch in silence for so long is extremely hard to stomach. There have been many complaints from Venezuela, too, about the Pope’s failure to condemn the socialist starvation policies of Nicolas Maduro, in the interest of good relations with the Chavista government. In all cases, the pope has chosen the state over the people.

Quite an irony from the man who up until now has been called ‘the people’s pope.’

The circus that Democrats are putting on for all the world to witness is a display of partisanship that should disgust even the casual observer, regardless of party.  Shockingly, as disgusting as their blatant disregard for the integrity of the Supreme Court confirmation process is, it’s not even close to the clear and present danger that their immediate presumption of guilt for Judge Kavanaugh poses to our nation’s boys and young men.

Parents of boys must understand the brave new world Democrats are attempting to usher in and the legitimate threats it poses to their sons’ futures – their reputations, college and career prospects, and general welfare.

Democrats’ instantaneous presumption of guilt for Judge Kavanaugh is setting a new standard for sexual assault allegations wherein they should be accepted simply for having been made.  Moreover, the allegations are to be believed, despite lacking any semblance of credible evidence, solely for having been made by a woman.

Consider Democratic senator Hirono from Hawaii’s recent comments: “Not only do women like Dr. Ford, who bravely come forward, need to be heard, but they need to be believed.”

Statements like that of Sen. Hirono, of which there have been a plethora, undermine the very nature of our nation’s judicial system and rule of law by placing the burden to disprove the allegations on the accused and, thus, rendering him guilty should he be unable to persuade the mob in the court of public opinion.

Parents, set aside the partisanship and the hyper-polarization that exist in our modern discourse and consider for a moment if this were your son. 

A girl comes forward accusing your son of sexual assault.  The case she lays out contains minimal evidence with fuzzy, uncorroborated details and zero recollection at all of many foundational material facts.  Two of the only three people the girl claims are in a position to corroborate the allegation issue patent denials, and the only person with whom the incident was disclosed prior to a public accusation against your son contradicts key facts of the allegation.  The accuser has a demonstrable history during that period of her life of underage intoxication, and your son unequivocally denies that the situation ever occurred.  When the authorities offer to hear her testimony, she issues a list of demands designed to obscure your son’s quest for the truth and unfairly prejudice the investigation significantly in her favor.  To compound matters, failure by your son to disprove these allegations will result in him losing everything – his reputation, friends, college admission prospects, scholarships, and career opportunities, along with an infinite amount of additional harm.

Parents, does this sound right to you?  Does this sound like blind justice that presumes innocence until proven guilty?  Does this sound like a society that you want your sons to be forced to navigate as they live their lives?

It certainly isn’t the world I want my three boys to grow up in, yet if the Democrats are allowed to continue establishing this precedent while they pursue an unconstitutional obstructionism of Judge Brett Kavanaugh’s confirmation process, that’s exactly the world our boys will be forced to grow up in.

Parents, if there was ever a time to get off the sidelines – to pull our heads out of the sand that’s been shoveled around them by the mainstream media – the time is now.

Democrats are presently claiming that even the mere questioning of the facts of Christine Ford’s accusation is somehow a sexist attack on her by a misogynistic patriarchal society.

As a society – as parents – we cannot allow this kind of mob rule to prevail, for doing so will radically alter and significantly darken the future for our children by instituting a new de facto American legal standard based on the presumption of guilt.

Make no mistake: should we permit such a legal standard to be established, it is only a matter of time before that standard shifts to universal applicability, regardless of sex and accusation.

All parents have a moral and parental imperative to speak out against this assault on our children and demand that the Democrats cease with this kangaroo court. 

With Christine Ford’s eleventh-hour acceptance of the Senate’s request for testimony, she should be held to the same process and standard as would be afforded to any other individual testifying before a Senate committee.

Should Ford continue her antics of delays, half-truths, and non-recollections, Senator Grassley should immediately regard her as nothing more than a partisan actor intended to defame an honorable man and call for a vote on Judge Kavanaugh based on the undeniable merits of his legal career and overwhelming evidence of his exceptional moral character in both his professional life and his personal life.

Parents, it’s time to make your voices heard.  Your children’s future depends on it.
