True character and integrity become most apparent when choosing between popularity and honesty, or between protecting revenue and speaking openly. That said, while I have little regard for a DC journalist who avoided meeting at the Trump International Hotel out of fear of being seen entering a venue deemed “controversial” by peers, at least Herridge keeps her act going by asking questions that play well with the crowd.
In an interview with former DOJ Prosecutor James Trusty, Ms. Herridge explores the potential for prosecuting those accused of deliberately targeting Donald Trump. Trusty points to 18 USC 242 as the key statute in the alleged “grand conspiracy” and considers how actions by former CIA Director John Brennan might have reset the statute of limitations. He also discusses James Comey’s recent “8647” threat indictment, possible additional false statement charges, and whether the underlying motive was to undermine an incoming President. WATCH:

If Donald Trump can be prosecuted under a “novel legal theory” in New York, then so can Brennan, Comey, Strzyk, McCabe , Hillary, et al.
Bankrupt them all with the process, seize/freeze all their known/hidden assets, make them feel the pain of knowing that they started the FA but PDJT4547 will finish with the FO Trump style 2026/27/28.
Bankrupt every one of them and their entire families. Call their family members in for a hundred interviews with their lawyers present like they did to Don Jr.
And subpoenas every day like they did to Eric.
The whole deal will blow up if they can find a way to indict the kenyan. Hopefully some weakling like Clapper drops the dime on every one of them
Amen! At a minimum they should all lose their Federal benefits, pension, healthcare and anything they enjoy!!!
There it happened again. Mary McCord did not make your list. Slippery devil she is! She stays under the radar without trying. Crazy thing it is.
But She ranks up there with Brennan and Jug eared Obama. Gods will she gets taken down with the whole gang of thieves. Spit

Sundance: Smack!
Elf on the Shelf: Owww… What was that?
Sundance: The Truth.
😆
LOVE IT!!
☺️
“True character and integrity”
Those are words I never thought I would see in any context associated with Elf on a Shelf.
Catherine Herridge really disappoints us! We used to have a lot of respect for her reporting. Until we didn’t!
Thank you, Sundance!
As usual, I suspect it’s all about the $$$$, rather than ideology.
Will watch.
In the meantime, a little data point in the 2020 election time frame of the ongoing 2015-2026 grand conspiracy to remove PDJT from the Presidency in one fashion or another, Chapter Steal the Election:
Guess who was key to one of those Summer of Love Bolshevik riot events, and guess who just got raided by the FBI?
Minute 8:
Yup, that’s Louise Lucas herself, actively interfering with law enforcement and conspiring to foment a riot and destroy public property.
The AME Network in action, live and on tape.
Funny how Jim Corney’s FBI looked the other way as these things happened in a coordinated manner all across the country.
“Funny how Jim Corney’s FBI looked the other way as these things happened in a coordinated manner all across the country.”
Did “Corney’s” FBI look the other way? Or, were they actively participating behind the scenes?
D. All of the above.
I still don’t understand why they give interviews to the people who are going to turn it over to editors who are going to cut, edit, paste, chop, slice and dice until it no longer says what was meant instead making it say what they want the low iq TV audience to think it says.
I know you have to keep up the appearance of transparancy and free press access but damn, use some media people besides these mainstream propagandists.
Every act in covering up, or furthering, the conspiracy restarts the statute(s) of limitations.
It’s been fun watching them do this to themselves the last decade or so.
Is Catherine Herridge married to John Solomon? Just asking….
Is Catherine Herridge for real? Just asking….
In the first half minute of that video she looks more like an AI creation than a reporter.
No, her husband is military. Information on him is sketchy. Sometimes he’s reported as being a Marine, other articles report him as an Air Force pilot.
Previous Sundance articles lead me to believe there was little hope of ever convicting anybody and that the clock had been successfully run out.
All we could expect was some exposure of what they did.
So what is it?
Hopium?
Indictments mean nothing anymore.
Still not one arrest, so far.
Comey was actually arrested even though he turned himself in.
Yeah I know legalize but technically he was under arrest.
The court of public opinion needs to constantly
hammer the
‘guilty of conspiracy against a US President’ verdict
regarding these people.
Because odds are, they’ll never see the real courtroom.
Without an indictment there will be no arrests. The indictment is a grand jury declaring that there is Probable Cause, which means an arrest warrant will rest on the indictment. Prepare the affidavit, take it to a judge or magistrate along with a copy of the indictment and the warrant is approved. They will not arrest without it unless they do not want conviction, which I’m beginning to suspect about both sides of these matters. Look what happened with Smith’s two cases and Fani’s, which was a real circus. I don’t see how anyone can believe either side is doing anything but manipulating their voting bases.
What they are really up to would be very interesting to find out.
06:15 Did Brennan’s TV Appearances, Book “Restart the Clock” on Statute of Limitations?
_________________
It would be sweet indeed if Brennan’s appearances on the MS NOW propaganda program of the odious Nicolle Wallace were what enabled the whole grand conspiracy shebang to move forward. Talk about justice!
There’s a cover-up on-going since they hatched this stupid thing. There is even evidence dropped that media outlets like the New York Times were actively involved in it because of the “Two-Predicates-For-Opening-Crossfire Hurricane” articles published during the course of 2017. The first article identified CARTER PAGE’s trip to Moscow as the predicate, which makes the most sense of the two since the FISA warrant was directed at Page, not at GEORGE PAPADOPOULOS, who was the second predicate. The Page article was published in April 2017 and the Papadopoulos article in December. Both were written by the same authors. There was no explanation in the December article about what was written in the first. It was a PIVOT.
The most logical theory about the need for the pivot to Papadopoulos was that the origin of the Steele Dossier as a piece of Opposition “Research” produced for the Hillary for America campaign. The makes the second article not a pivot away from Page, but a pivot away from the Steele Dossier as the primary “evidence” of Russian assistance to the Trump campaign.
The New York Times was Comey’s preferred leak recipient. They published everything he sent to justify what he did in targeting Trump, whether or not the targeting was real or just theater since Comey and the rest bungled constantly, including in the instance of attempting to justify the investigation by leaking first one predicate, and producing another when the first was shown to be legally ILLEGITIMATE.
What I would say about Catherine’s choice of venue is this: when you run a business and want it to be successful, you must understand your consumers needs and biases.
I like Catherine as a person, but I’ve stopped listening to her a long time ago. She is fed information and is a very useful tool of the Spook Industry.
