Frank Figliuzzi today: Trump invokes sovereign citizen wacko stuff "People won't allow it"

Frank said today that the "Investigator wasn't elected" "People won't allow it" is teeing up the nut job Sovereign Citizen that does not accept legitimacy of the government.

Think Ruby Ridge.

That thread is very frightening.

Ken Dilanian blocked me from his twitter.

Oy.

Because, I assume, I stated that he has been reportedly the one giving NBC the bad and breathless information that the Mueller report is imminent and pointed to Preet and Seth Abramson for better information.

Nicole Wallace said today that they have dropped the word "imminent" and replaced it with "looming" on NBC.

I have queried his attorney a few times, and received no response. 2/


Also not heard back from his attorney if Nader intends to cooperate with the House Judiciary Committee probe 3/


As previously noted, a different attorney from the same firm as Nader’s attorney is reportedly representing Broidy in related matters


Source thought that odd, since one might have thought Nader was revealing information in his cooperation that could legally affect Broidy


(Broidy’s attorney also did not respond to a query. )

Anyone know anything about scary White Nationalist talk re: March 19?

Someone I know took a dive into their talk in the dark places of the Internet and saw references to that date.

Seth Abramson reminds us to look back to Kushner friend Rick Gerson.

Here's the URL for the story about him from June of 2018.

He was in the Seychelles.

WASHINGTON — A close friend of Jared Kushner has come under scrutiny by Special Counsel Robert Mueller for his proximity to some key meetings between Trump associates and foreign officials, according to five people familiar with the matter.

Richard Gerson, a hedge-fund manager in New York, was in the Seychelles in January 2017, less than two weeks before President Donald Trump's inauguration and around the time Trump associate Erik Prince secretly met with Russian and United Arab Emirates officials, including Crown Prince Mohamed bin Zayed al-Nahyan of Abu Dhabi, four of the people said.

While in the remote Indian Ocean island nation, Gerson met with Prince Mohammed — also known by his initials as MBZ — and communicated with a Lebanese-American businessman with close ties to the UAE, George Nader, who had organized the Erik Prince meeting, according to text messages Gerson sent at the time and a person familiar with the meeting.

Seth Abramson is raging about the white power hand sign after New Zealand killer flashes it.

The New Zealand killer displayed it loud and clear, despite being shackled and tightly bound 'round the arms.

It can no longer be considered the OK sign or something innocent of white nationalism.

1/ Just ownin' the libs...

"On Thursday, after a news cycle about her hand’s resting position, Bash was very aware. A clip from that day of the hearing appeared to show Bash, once again sitting behind Kavanaugh, making a much more deliberate-looking 'okay' symbol with her hand."

2/ I mean, as long as Zina Bash thought this was *funny*, and folks online thought it was *funny*, what could possibly be the *harm* of turning the white power symbol into an ironic joke? I can't see it.

But somehow I think the people of New Zealand have no difficulty seeing it.


3/ What I'm *really* glad for is that The Washington Post kept playfully calling it the "OK symbol" even though its story confirms that when she did it the *second* time, *on live national television*, Bash *fully understood* that people were reading it as the white power symbol.


4/ Newsflash for Zina Bash and her crew of trolls or dilettante white supremacists or bored conservative wags or *whatever*... I don't give a **** why you give what you *absolutely know* is the white power symbol: go **** yourself.

5/ And hey—*good on The Washington Post* for ensuring that its interior headline is *different* than the headline that shows up on social media, so that anyone criticizing Bash has to look like the Washington Post is criticizing *them*. Here's the *actual* headline for the story:

6/ And not to sound like Al Pacino at the end of Scent of a Woman, but **** you too, Washington Post, for saying that only the hash-tag "Resistance"—which I've said for two-plus years now I'm not a part of—cares about how these sorts of "pranks" (or whatever) *change US culture*.

7/ Oh, *man*... it just gets *funnier* every time. I *love* that we can horse around with white supremacist memes like it's *hilarious*. It's not like we should *cut this crap out* or anything, as our president winks and nudges at white supremacists and says it's not a big issue.


8/ I'll say now what I said then—I don't think Zina Bash is a white supremacist. What I *think* is that Zina Bash doesn't give a **** if people think she's a white supremacist or not, and what I *think* is that Zina Bash thinks it'd be funny to be thought of that way. It's *not*.


9/ And the *best* part is how *often* you see *non-straight white males* playing this "joke" on the libs. I mean, it's got to be like... 1% of the time... that it's a non-straight white male. So, you know, pretty clearly it's *not* just a thing straight white males do for "fun."

10/ I'll leave you with this: we don't take gun violence seriously, so people die by gun violence; we don't take white supremacy seriously, so people die at white supremacists' hands. The right ignores (Trump) or jokes about (Bash) things that kill. It's not okay anymore. /end


PS/ Speaking as a man who wore suits every day as an attorney, I can tell you this is *definitely the normal way* a man adjusts his jacket. Nothing to see here... just "owning the libs." I mean, it's not like anyone who knows Miller ever accused him of white supremacist leanings.

3/14 Report: Under Trump, Witness Protection Infiltrated By Russian Mafia

An investigative report -- shocking.

[link:https://thesternfacts.com/under-trump-witness-protection-has-been-infiltrated-by-the-russian-mafia-f6e4825f10a5|

In October 2017, Curt Weldon joined the board of advisors for Monarch Air Group, which had just completed its first contract with the Justice Department’s Witness Security Division.

Monarch Air is a known Russian mob front. This is such an open secret that a Conspiracy Theory website made up a story about how Monarch Air worked with the FSB to transport 370 Spetznetz troops to the United States to protect the Trump inauguration.

It was actually somewhat believable given the presence of a South Florida biker gang literally named after the Spetznetz with ties to Trump properties.

Why would the Trump Administrations Department of Justice allow a company that operates as a front for the Russian mob anywhere near the sacred halls of Witness Protection, not once, but twice? What was going on in June 2017 and January 2018 that warranted these contracts
