We're so f*cked

So...here's the memo:

Seems kinda lame. Just more of the same shit re the Steele dossier as well as Dems funding it via Fusion GPS.

Nothing new or very revelatory in there. Nunes needs to go though - now casting doubt on the FBI as a precursor to findings re Trump and Russia. I don't see Wray resigning because of this but if he did, I'd support that too. This is unprecedented. I've never seen the FBI politicized like this.

And here's the possible prelude to Trump dismissing Rosenstein:

So I guess the Dem's screwing with the primaries is nothing. LOL

well that's about as interesting as an episode of walking dead

the entire thing is just trying to discredit the reason for why the wiretap on Page was granted, not that Page DIDN'T do anything wrong. this is like those people who are "innocent" and get out of being executed for crimes 20 people saw them do because the the cop said "you have a right to remain silent, you son of a bitch" and therefore didn't properly mirandize him, that kind of bullshit.

page's ties were cut by the trump campaign themselves BECAUSE OF RUSSIA during the campaign. Page went off against american policies in a speech in russia, that he later claimed he was doing as himself but the school advertised his connection to Товарищ Дональд Трамп. after that, the Трамп campaign itself pushed him out. but that was the reason the FBI was looking for connections. the steele dossier seems to be in support of that, supporting documentation as "oh yeah there's this other thing that alleges all this crazy shit, and since this Page guy is literally in Russia talking shit about the US and he's on the Трамп campaign we should check him out"

Holy shit @ the VIX today.

[ToddStarnes]

Profit taking or a true correction. You can read it either way and VIX isn't dispositive as to which.

Personally? I'm short with my free funds and staying that way until I see the correction.

Now I'm going back to Stellaris. This dynasty won't perpetuate itself.
