    Actually, he is a private investigator working directly for the president. He is not conducting diplomacy, but instead conducting an investigation and reporting back. The president gets to set foreign policy and he has had a ton of evidence that his "employees" have been sabotaging him. You know, like the FBI, the DOJ, the CIA, and ambassadors.

    You know what shadow diplomacy is? Here are a couple of recent examples (there are many more):
    • John Kerry meets with Iranian officials over the now-dead nuclear deal, giving them advice on how to work around a US President.
    • Nancy Pelosi attends UN climate conference and assures them that the US is "still in" despite the US never having even signed onto the Paris climate agreement- she does not speak for America

    Not quite. John Kerry was wrong, and should've been investigated for his Iranian deals. Nancy Pelosi, as a sitting member in Congress is kinda afforded the ability to speak on behalf of the House and the things they will pursue. In both of those instances, things were done publicly and above board. Rudy not so much. He conducted his work in the "shadows," hence the "shadow diplomacy."

    You don't get to that level of the .gov without being part of the cabal.

    This doesn't make any sense. You're essentially saying that everyone at or above Yovanovitch's level, calling out the "deep state," is in the deep state themselves. So yeah, problematic.

    Kirstie kicking some socialist ass. I like her gutsy move. It’s not easy to boldly take a position that goes against what’s expected of Hollywood types.

    Some of the replies were standard elitist bull****. Like, "maybe pick up a book," as if everyone who disagrees with them are less informed about the topic.

    Don't kid yourself. Just because a lot of us cannot wrap our heads around this, doesn't mean that a pretty large swath of the country aren't sold that this has nothing to do with dead babies, but about "women's health."

    All attention is good attention for Michele Wolf. Gotta remember who we are talking about here.

    Always follow the money

    ...and in this case, those things are going to generate a lot of it.

    I have been reading the IG report on the FBI investigation into Trump/Russia and came across this gem and immediately thought of you. Ultimately, I think the continued outrage against Trump is largely based upon him upsetting the apple cart of who was going to be able to profit from their connections. Anyway, this is a little blurb from one of the FBI's confidential sources about a conversation he had with Papadopoulos.
