Death Of The GOP? Bring It On!
*Covering Up The Cover Up by Nancy Ohanian* Devin Nunes, a Central Valley Trumpist goon, is the ranking Republican on the House Intel Committee. One of his staffers, Derek Harvey, has been leaking the whistleblower's name. That's illegal. But Harvey hasn't been arrested and Nunes hasn't fired him. Mark Zaid, one of the whistleblower’s attorneys: "Exposing the identity of the whistleblower and attacking our client would do nothing to undercut the validity of the complaint’s allegations. What it would do, however, is put that individual and their family at risk of harm. Perhaps more i... more »

Cos you’re worth it?
Samira Ahmed and the Beeb babes think they should get as much pay as Jeremy Vine. (I wonder how much Victoria Derbyshire gets? Oh look, it's £200,000-£249,999. ) Jeremy Vine’s wages are totally bizarre. Personally, if I was *forced *to choose, I’d rather watch Samira Ahmed than Vine, but neither of them seems particularly irreplaceable. I resent compulsorily paying over the odds for unsatisfactory goods.
Ambushing the Tory
Why has the BBC reignited Ken Loach? He peaked in 1966 with Cathy Come Home. Please just let the hard-left misery-monger lie. Following his appearance on Question Time where Fiona Bruce interrupted the Conservative remorselessly while allowing the Labour chap to drone on and on in the dullest imaginable manner, Ken Loach recounted a rambling anecdote to show how nasty the nasty party is. Enough, one might have thought. But no. Monday’s (or maybe Tuesday's) Victoria Derbyshire show featured a sorry tale about “unsecured” tenants in Barnet living in damp, cockroach-infested flats.... more »

The contempt of the ruling class for the ruled
If you've read the proposed "impeachment inquiry resolution" offered in Congress, you'll understand just how profound is the contempt of the current majority there for the Constitution and laws of the United States. They're using those laws as levers to *undermine* the Constitution on which they're based, and they have no problem with treating Congress as a partisan political fulcrum with which to try to lever a legitimately elected President out of office. They're not interested in whether it's right or wrong to do something - only if they can twist words to call it legal. "Leg... more »

*Kyle Mizokami* *Security, Europe* One reason: nuclear weapons. *Key point:* A submarine-based nuclear deterrent can't be beaten. The United Kingdom maintains a fleet of four ballistic missile submarines with the ability to devastate even the largest of countries. This fleet came into being after its ally, the United States, canceled a key weapon system that would have been the cornerstone of London’s nuclear arsenal. Fifty years later, the UK’s missile submarine force is the sole custodian of the country’s nuclear weapons, providing a constant deterrent against nuclear attack.... more »

*TNI Staff* *Security, Middle East* [image: https://www.dvidshub.net/image/3587879/f-35-b-course-capstone-flight] A lot, that's what. *Key Point:* A series of errors by the F-35 pilot combined with successes by Iran's Air Force and air defense grid would be needed. A full-scale military campaign against Iran would require the United States to destroy the Iranian air force—which to this day flies American-built warplanes.

"Enemy Assets"
*"Enemy Assets"* by Robert Gore “A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the s... more »
