SESSIONS TESTIFIES BEFORE HOUSE JUDICIARY COMMITTEE
The Keebler Nazi went to the House Judiciary Committee today. Attorney General Jeff Sessions testified before the House Judiciary Committee today, and surprising to no one, had difficulty recalling any of his conversations with campaign officials about Russia. Even when he was in the room.
I told Representative Ted Lieu on Twitter that I was putting $20 on Jeff lying under oath. How do I collect my Twitter bucks?
RUSSIAN WIRE TRANSFERS REFERENCE 2016 ELECTION, POSSIBLE DISINFORMATION FROM RUSSIA
According to BuzzFeed, about $380,000 worth of wire transfers from Russia were routed around the world, ending up in America. At least one of those transfers had a memo line referring to the 2016 election.
This is where things get weird.
This seems like it should be a smoking gun, but something just feels off. This is just a little too good.
I’m not the only paranoid person out there. Team Patriot feels the same way. They feel that this might be deza, or disinformation from the Russians to muddy the waters.

JILL STEIN CALLS JULIAN ASSANGE A HERO
Once again, here is my favorite picture of Jill Stein…
MIKE PENCE IS A FRAUD
Pence benefits from being surrounded by idiots. It makes him look competent by comparison. He’s a lousy politician, but next to the rest of Team Trump, he looks like Lyndon B. Johnson.
BILL BROWDER: WHY PUTIN HATES ME
One of GQ’s Most Interesting People explains why Vladimir Putin hates him and wants him dead.
