"Today, the Ukrainian parliament adopted a number of illiberal and undemocratic laws which are aimed at consolidating the current regime and which would divide Ukraine further.
One law is aimed at closure of only two news TV channels which broadcast not only pro-government and far right but also alternative, critical, and opposition viewpoints and speakers.

"Since 2010, the organization purchased and sold wholesale quantities of heroin, cocaine, and marijuana. They used the U.S. Postal Service to purchase and mail these drugs to and from various distributors in the Continental United States.

"The decision by President Trump not to declassify did two things: (1) it gave the President leverage over Rosenstein and by extension over Mueller. After all, the construct of the special counsel was built upon DOJ/FBI intentional lies and FISA fraud.

All of this leverage makes the position of DAG Rod Rosenstein tenuous. Do you think Rosenstein likes the idea of sitting around waiting for the IG report to show the world how badly he botched the DOJ job, and even facilitated their corrupt activity, during his stewardship?
“I was a maître d’ at a restaurant for thirteen years. But one week I got a really bad case of pneumonia that put me in the hospital. While I was lying in that hospital bed, I was thinking about how I really didn’t want to go back to work.
Then that motivational speaker came on TV. You know-- the one that has all those teeth in his mouth. And he said: Think back to what made you happy when you were young! That’s what you should be doing!’
