(110,263 posts)I've been reading a lot, too. Louise and Claude aren't primary sources for me, though they have often tipped me off to articles in the MSM that i might have missed otherwise -- just like DU does.
But I remember back in January, when I was still in shock and couldn't believe DT was President, discovering Louise Mensch and her first story about DT and how Comey was the White Night. At the time it had felt like we were doomed, and I remember thinking -- if only this could be true. If only I knew Comey was -- very quietly, behind the scenes -- moving forward.
She was right. He was.
But we didn't really know that till he testified at the Senate hearing in late March. And then, after Comey got fired, and it turned out Rosenstein had written the letter criticizing Comey's treatment of Hillary, Rosenstein looked bad. But Louise said to trust Rosenstein, that he was a good guy, too. And she was right. He appointed Mueller as Special counsel the next day.
And now she's confident in Mueller, and so am I -- for lots of reasons that predate Louise, and from looking at the hires he's made since he became Special Counsel.
Louise's utter confidence that good will prevail and that DT will get his just deserts helped me through some dark days. And they'll probably continue to cheer me through the months and years ahead.
It won't make me complacent. It won't make me think I don't have to keep up the fight on my own end. I promise.
