Rudy Giuliani describing the aftermath of Mueller after Mueller’s press conference at the end of May.
Rudy Giuliani: ‘I blasted’ Mueller in ‘crisis’ DOJ meeting he did not attend
by Daniel Chaitin
May 30, 2019
https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/rudy-giuliani-i-blasted-mueller-in-crisis-doj-meeting-he-did-not-attend
-snip-
Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani said he once took special counsel Robert Mueller “to task” at the Justice Department.
But Mueller was not present.
“I met with that guy once. Once. Every time I had a problem, somebody else had to meet him,” Giuliani said Thursday on Fox News. “Once, we had a crisis and we took him to task in the attorney general’s office — or the deputy attorney general’s office, and I blasted him. He didn’t show up. I saw him a year and a half ago. One and only time. I called him ‘the Wizard of Oz.’ We would say, you are doing this, you are doing that, it’s wrong. They would say, ‘We’ll take it up with Bob.’ I used to sometimes say, ‘Maybe we shouldn’t wake him.’”

Don’t forget anger.
Wrote this knowing, you would understand.
That is the problem, for many people in our liberal societal culture that is the sole path to self-actualization and unfortunately skips the most important stage of human emotional growth, Acceptance.
Acceptance is a key step by which self examination reflects and reassess the ego’s stuggle with the id and super-ego of emotion.
By culturally enabling people to move to self-actualization without this step many are doom from confronting adversity from a healthy, learnt experience.
In my opinion… That is why narcissism is so prevalent in society. The emotional rewards of self-actualization achieved cheaply has become a false sense of transcendence virtue.

People of a certain age can remember some very important lessons from the Nixon era. For some people, the only lesson was: “R’s are always crooks.” Of course, that is truly stupid.
Those that are more astute learned: “be careful how much you fall in love with one side, because someday you are bound to find out your side has crooks of their own.”
It can be a very tough experience, and it takes time to fully absorb the lesson. Some never will. However, others will make their way through the grieving process including all the steps: denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance.
I pray that I can remember to keep my anger where it belongs — with the dirty cops and other crooks that created this mess. I hope to allow people who have been fooled the time/space to learn their lesson without punishing them for the actions of the actual scum with whom my anger properly belongs.

I think another very important lesson, that seems to be missing, is that not everything is a binary/ yes or no/ black or white/ good or bad issue. The narrative spinners would have everyone believe that if you believe that Democrats have been engaged in shenanigans you must also be a rabid Trump loving partisan who will never believe that a Republican has ever done anything wrong.

The irony is that the people I see specifically calling it a “Hannity theory” are essentially complaining about people blindly parroting a pundit by …blindly parroting a pundit.
I’ve seen this many times from them – I can usually guess what the theme of the previous night’s MSNBC and CNN coverage was by the appearance of similar phrases repeated in multiple comments. Then they go on to rant and rave about the ‘stranglehold’ FOX news has on conservatives. I pointed out recently that it is 1 network – compared to CNN, MSNBC, NBC, CBS, ABC , HuffPo, BuzzFeed, Yahoo, WaPo, NYT etc etc.
My other favorite trick with them is that any reporting they don’t like is immediately discounted because the outlet is ‘well known right wing garbage’. They considered Louise Mensch reliable. They see nothing biased or nutty our unreliable about Daily Kos or Mother Jones.
It’s pretty darned frustrating.

Hannity is a good guy, but there’s no way he could think up those questions. Anyone who’s watched or listened to him for any period of time can see that he is not a deep thinker. He is a good parrot of information and doing it repeatedly, but he’s not a leader in thought. One simple proof of it is his inability to have a discussion with his guests. He is so focused on his questions that he doesn’t engage when they give him information that goes deeper than he expected. Of course places like CNN are filled with completely ignorant and closed-minded people who know their audience hate Hannity’s influence and use a statement like that to help make sure their viewers reject facts and just focus on their hatred.

I say ‘friends’ but what I mean is that I’ve been a member of a message board for about a dozen years. Many of the other members are African American, and the overwhelming majority skew hard left. They’ve run off almost every other member who is conservative with their blatant hostility and viciousness. I’m not going to let them run me off and I like to be able to see what others think and feel about issues. I learn from them.
So I stay a member and every once in a while I get weak and post a dissenting opinion. Should have seen the outrage when I pointed out that their immediate acceptance of the Covington narrative was textbook bigotry. Oh boy.
So they are less ‘friends’ than random internet acquaintances that I sort of ‘know’ from reading their posts for the past 12 years.

You may be right about progressives, but you only reach people by loving them and showing interest in their lives. I’ve reached many of them over the years and done so by focusing more on their lives (family, job, personal interests) and not politics. Once they see that I care about them (and I do care about them because they are just lost people who need help), then I have earned the right to speak freely and we are able to work toward honest, open discussions that eventually cause them to see the error of their thinking and open up to conservatism. But if they didn’t see me as a caring friend first, I’d never be able to reach them because they’d just see me as their enemy.

I HATE it, when I find myself agreeing with that purple tie wearing rooster, Gowdy!
But, that doesn’t mean he’s not right, darn it. Jim Jordan WANTS to believe it is true, that Barr, Durham and Horowitz are ‘going to get to the bottom’of ‘how it all started’and expose it to the light of day.
And, while he didn’t actually talk sbout perp walks and trials, Nunes certainly did, recently.
I understand this; they have been fighting for 2-3 years on this, BOTH have survived attempted smears, and they want to believe its all going to have been worthwhile, and FINALLY, Justice will prevail.
Manage expectations, …REALISTIC expectations. I doubt seriously we will see any legal action against the perps, before end of 2020.
And there is a real posibility that the perps consequences will be at the ballotbox, and in the afterlife.
THATS realistic, rather than what we WANT to happen, or THINK should happen. And, IF thats the case,…life WILL go on. It won’t truly be “the end of the Republic”, which I know is going to piss off a lot of you, but its true.
They succesfully did to Goldwater, and Nixon, what theyvtried to do to PDJT,…
And the Republic survived.
They shot JFK, RIGHT IN FRONT OF US, then killed the patsy, RIGHT IN FRONT OF US,…and the Republic survived.
They got us involved in Viet Nam, Iraq and Afcrapistan, destroying countless treasure,..and the Republic survived.
I could go on, my point is it IS possible for the Republic to survive, without perp walks, long jail sentences or hangings.
Even possible for the Republic to be stronger. If the Democrat party is so completely discredited that they go yhe way of the whigs,…100 years from now people will be saying “DON’T even THINK about it, remember what happened to the Democrats!”

And, let’s face it, “that’s it.” That’s where the scratched track begins and ends.
“Impeachment is the candle flame, and these folks are the moths.” Hillary Clinton ordered them to get rid of her political opposition and they’ll probably still be trying to do it ten years from now, because this is the only “vision for governance in the United States” that they understand. This is why they were telling The Queen the night before that she wasn’t about to get slaughtered, and this is also why she believed it herself. What’s driving them incessantly is a drive to “return to ‘normalcy’ as they see it.” The Republicans were supposed to nominate “another Bush,” who would then obligingly lose to “another Clinton.” This is as far as these people go, and there’s nothing that any of us can do to save them from themselves.

I hope he does know something we don’t. But, why would he trust them before they deliver anything?
If what I think is true is true — that the FBI and other alphabet soup agencies have a completely unacceptable degree of corruption within their organization — then it seems to me that I agree with what Jim Jordan has been saying or implying over the past several months.
However, I also respect that these corrupt bureaucracies are very powerful and dangerous. If they weren’t, I’d have far less reason to fear them and would be far less concerned about whether or not they are cleaned up.
Because they are so powerful, I suspect they are most likely to escape what is coming to them.** If they do, Jordan will be hanging out — not because he didn’t deliver, but because he promised that someone else would deliver and then they did not. I don’t understand why he would put himself in that position.
footnote:
** I am highly doubtful that anyone in DC is actually going to tear down a corrupt government institution. At most, I picture them throwing a few people under the bus while trying to get everyone else (and their corrupt organization) into the clear. If Barr/Durham pick 3 culprits so that hundreds can escape, will Jordan say “hundreds escaped”, or will he say “those 3 were punished so we can all go home now”? I don’t know, and I bear no ill will towards Jim Jordan. I just don’t want hundreds to escape if they are truly guilty.

But, even over-and-above that question, “is this actually want our Government to be able to do?”
If you concentrate all that information into one place and make it terribly easy to get to … what happens? Why, “people ‘get to’ it!” As we’ve seen, maybe they ‘get to’ it just to attack a political opponent … and then text and even tweet about it.

It depends on the state.
In most states, the fee on a tort liability case, defamation is a tort (think torture to your reputation) and the fee issue is between client and lawyer. Usually it is a percent of the recovery.
Other theories of liability include the defendant paying fees for a successful plaintiff.
Civil rights, discrimination, sexual harassment, for example. If one of these theories was tried in the sam trial as the defamation trial, and plaintiff won, fees would be paid by defendant, based on the civil rights claim.

What few of the commentators and public officials are willing to say is that it is not simply ideological hatred of Trump that is driving the Democrats to supremely irrational lengths to impeach the president, it is a desperate attempt to preempt an investigation into the obama administration’s illegal spying on a political opponent, along with all the other electoral crime the Dems engaged in, including cooking their nomination process, malfeasance by SoS Clinton, and the internal leak of the DNC data by Seth Rich. The abyss is so deep they know they would never climb out again. It would be the end of the Democrat Party. What they do is not in order to get Trump, per se, it is to preserve their own hides – political and in some cases literal.

Thank you, Paul B. Excellent post! Couldn’t have said it better myself. I would only add that as you are describing primarily the Dem leadership, the truly pathetic part is that they have strung along their base and whipped them into an ideological fury to support the leadership’s need to save their own hides just as you said. They regard their base as only their tool. One could almost feel pity for them. Not possessing critical thinking skills, they are constantly being jerked around by their emotions like leaves in a gale. But I fall short of pity. Even a small mob can be dangerous.
I see this as an exercise in caution that inspires determination rather than pity. For the sake of our beloved country’s survival their circus cannot be permitted to continue. It is truly frightening, and chilling, how effortlessly a psy-op can be run on targeted groups of people. Aided and abetted by lavishly paid “mockingbird media” propagandists who reinforce the message. It’s right out of Orwell.
Observe well the methods they are using fellow Treepers. This time it is the Democrats, but you realize, we have all been played in the past. The globalist puppet masters have been free to run amok amongst us for a long time. Until now. Do you notice? Their tried and true methods are not working so well now. Many of us are seeing behind the curtain and are calling them out.
As they saying goes, “Desperate times call for desperate measures.” The opposition is fighting for survival. We all know about cornered animals. They may be in disarray at the moment but this round isn’t over yet. I plan to keep the pressure on. We can change the narrative by calling for the Dems to go back to doing their jobs and serve the needs of our country like they were sworn to do. There will surely be resistance, but all efforts are for God and country. Love to all of you brilliant Treepers! Be well. 🙂

The only reason he’s protected is that if he were found guilty they worry that all the laws he signed might be challenged as illegitimate, especially if they ever truly looked into his background and the fact that he wasn’t eligible to be president in the first place. There’s so much dirt between the Clintons and Obamas that they have to protect them or watch their entire world unravel.

Thank you, you make my point for me. However, the Uniparty doesn’t care about her being First Lady. As I stated “she is universally reviled, and as you stated, “Add to that the fact that Hillary knows where all the bodies are buried.”…including Obama’s. And that’s the rub. Obama knows that she’ll sell him out in a Chappaqua second, so the only thing Obama, et al can do is protect her (or have her meet with an unfortunate accident), so he can keep his secrets safe.

“The Left can’t stop.”
Yes. And this is something not fully understood on our side. I keep hearing comments about how the Left will at one point surrender, accept the truth, resign themselves to President Trump’s tenure, etc. No. Not only will this never happen, the rage and madness will only get worse.

While they’ve moved past the 1st Stage of Loss (shock), they’ve been stuck in the 2nd for 2.5 years (anger). They’re sick with hate, which gives me joy

Mr diGenova is a masterful attorney, reader of people and recipient of huge amounts of insider info, however I don’t agree with Joe on one small item…Brennan isn’t the tip of the spear, Obama is.
Even an ideological, Trump-hating stooge like Brennan wouldn’t attempt a coup on his own, if he didn’t know that Obama, et al and their enlisted alphabet agencies had his back. So, just like the “Mueller” Report was run by Weissman, this coup was started and run by Obama, et al. Why do you think Obama relocated just a few blocks from the White House? Because he and his puppet masters are still orchestrating this abomination.

Not just HAS the key, but is willing to give it to Durham. The key? It WAS a WESTERN intel agency setup. Nearly everything said here, by Dan Bongino (Dan says his book is spot on as is his sequel book), and by some appearing on Fox is gradually being PROVED. We here know what it’s ALL about and always HAS BEEN about. I hope more Americans learn, too.

Josef Mifsud best have some high powered Security/Protection around him at all times. If he’s ready to drop the dime on the Deep State Coup Team, he’s a prime target for being Seth Rich’d.

Beware bemoaning Mueller too much.
The logical extension of that would be a new cry to for a second Special Counsel because the first proved himself to be incompetent.

OK, just hold your horses! Mueller and his associates at DOJ, the Intel community, the media, and elsewhere in the swamp that is the federal government and DC, and all others who have participated in this so-called investigation (I challenge any professional investigator anywhere to show me where/how this whole fiasco would qualify to be labeled as an investigation, or better yet find me a real prosecutor who would let the Mueller report even get put into his/her inbox much less before a judge and/or jury!) have done guys like me a great service. Mueller’s report and testimony yesterday has written the forward for my book titled: Rape, Pillage, Plunder, America You’ve Been Had & It’s Your Own Damn Fault! In addition, Mueller’s report and testimony coupled with the reactions from the media and many politicians only serves to reinforce the truths I have tried to share with my fellow Americans since 1989 (lessons learned published after 26 years of active duty as a soldier and in the third year of service as a police chief). Thank you Mr. Mueller and all you self-serving, witless types calling yourselves politicians and/or members of the press.

An Old Soldier’s Lessons Learned.
Notice: In the interests of those faint of heart I have omitted several of the lessons from the list below. Those desiring to read the complete list just submit a note from your doctor with your email address. Don’t worry Nancy and Chuck; I and most of the veterans I know are not planning a revolution. You see when we see our fellow Americans willing to tolerate the likes of you and your mates in the Congress we conclude that Americans are not worth another drop of our sweat, much less our blood!
1. Soldiers (ground combat soldiers, that is) do not fight first and foremost for their country, the flag, motherhood, nor apple pie. Before all else, soldiers engaged in ground combat fight for their fellow soldiers and their unit.
2. The Seven C’s of Leadership according to a 1980 survey of 1646 of Vietnam era ground combat veterans listed of the order of their importance are; Candor, Competence, Consistency, Commitment, Courage, Compassion, and Courtesy. The reason the soldiers in the survey chose the word “candor” is because to them candor encompasses both omission and co-mission. To a combat soldier lack of absolute candor, be it co-mission or omission, are equal sins! In short, soldiers expect/demand absolute candor from their leaders before all else.
3. Omitted for the sake of the faint of heart.
4. The American people are the most effectively lied to people in modern times thanks primarily to the American political class, the American bureaucracy, the American media, and American academia.
5. Arrogance coupled with ignorance equals stupidity.
6. The greatest threats to the American people are the corrupt and/or incompetent politicians/bureaucrats/academicians found at every level of government/academia, and the majority of the American so-called news media.
7. Most of the politicians/bureaucrats/academicians I have encountered during my years as a soldier/cop I most kindly refer to as; self-serving, witless, cowards.
8. The American Profession of Arms and our brothers/sisters in blue have failed to protect the American people from all of their enemies, both foreign and most especially domestic.
9. Omitted for the sake of the faint of heart.
10. Omitted for the sake of the faint of heart.
11. Omitted for the sake of the faint of heart.
12. There are only two primary requirements to be a career soldier and/or cop in America. One must be smart enough to do the work and dumb enough to take the job.
