US
Attorney’s Office questioned Comey about whether McCabe lied and
committed a crime
Is
the noose tightening? Is Session sending signals to subordinates that
he is okay with them going after Obama administration officials?
What
does this mean?
Although
Comey’s interview is significant, it does not indicate that
prosecutors have reached a conclusion, according to reports. A
referral from the inspector general does not necessarily mean charges
will be filed.
Lying
to federal investigators is punishable by up to five years in prison.

Only
1 More State Needs to Ratify Equal Rights Amendment
Illinois
just became the 37th to back ERA
Remember
that? How many weren’t even born when all that hoofraw happened? I
had no idea my home state, Nevada, had approved in in 2017.
Some
minor problems though, 5 states have rescinded their original
ratifications.
With
calls to revive the amendment growing stronger amid the #MeToo
movement, Democratic Rep. Carolyn Maloney plans to hold a
congressional hearing on the ERA next week. It will be the first
since 1984.
I
wonder if that means they will have to start all over.
Pelosi
Slams Jobs Report: ‘Strong Employment Numbers Mean Little’
Thank
goodness, she just won’t shut up or go away. The biggest reason to
get out and vote Republican in the 2018 midterms.
“May’s
jobs report shows that strong employment numbers mean little to the
families hit with soaring new costs under the Republicans’ watch,”
the California congresswoman said in a statement. “Republicans’
cruel, cynical health care sabotage campaign is already spiking
families’ premiums by double digits and pushing millions off their
coverage ... Big Pharma continues to hoard the benefits of the GOP
tax scam, using their handouts to further enrich executives and
shareholders instead of lowering prescription drug costs for seniors
and sick kids. At the same time, the President’s reckless policies
are exploding gas prices, wiping out the few meager gains that some
families should have received from the GOP tax scam, as wages remain
stagnant.”
City
of Exiles
Paragraph
after paragraph of tales of horror about those swarming the border at
Tijuana seeking asylum in the US.
My
only problem with this is the total lack of outrage at Mexico. That
country allows these people to pass through – many officials
gathering in their mordida along the way – and then does
absolutely nothing for them when they get to the border. Many of
their gathering spots are filled with gangs who prey upon them and
local police do nothing.
The
saddest part of all is the utter lack of concern Mexican official
have for their own citizens. Why should they care about these
outsiders when they don’t care about their own?
I’m
not going to select a paragraph to show as I’ll let you read this

Mexico
Can Give Trump a Crisis by Not Stopping Drugs, Illegals
The
stupid twit won’t admit that Mexico is doing little or nothing to
stop them already! The only thing officials do is put their hands out
for “donations” and then turn their backs to the flow of illegals
and drugs.
As
Jorge Ramos sees it, if this process of standing up to Trump means
that the U.S. must endure a meth crisis to go along with the current
opioid crisis and fresh hordes of MS-13 gangbangers, then so be it.
Too bad, America! That’s what you get for having 25 million drug
users and for electing Donald Trump to the presidency despite all but
being directly told to vote for Hillary Clinton on Univision's
airwaves.

Trudeau
Sinks NAFTA Talks
Seems
he doesn’t like the 5 year “sunset clause” VP Pence insists on.
Claims it causes “too much concern” for businesses.
He
says the visit was called off after he made it clear to Pence that no
Canadian leader would sign a deal containing a sunset clause. Trump
said in a statement Thursday that the US "has been taken
advantage of for many decades on trade" and the message was
conveyed to Trudeau that Washington will "agree to a fair deal,
or there will be no deal at all." "FAIR TRADE!" he
tweeted.
California
Now Checks on How Many Times You Flush Your Toilet
Oh
yeah, and how long you spend in the shower. Can The Flaky State get
any weirder
Starting
in 2022, California will limit water to 55 gallons per-person,
per-day. By 2030, the amount falls to 50 gallons.
To
put this into perspective, just taking one eight-minute shower (17
gallons of water) and doing one load of laundry (up to 40 gallons) is
enough to exceed the 55-gallon limit. Taking a bath can use 80 to 100
gallons of water.

Perry
Beneduce, manager of the company’s office in Wall Township, told
the outlet he knows the sign came from a particular house in Brielle
because that residence was the only Diane Turton waterfront listing
at the time.
That’s
one tough sign.
What
Most of Us Don’t Know About Spelling Bee Contestants
So
they’re smart and spell real good. And
the runner-up misspelled “Bewusstseinslage.” [I
used to be fluent in German and have no idea what it means. But, if
it was spoken to me, I could’ve spelled it because, like Spanish,
Germans speak every letter of every word.
Back
to the main point. Here’s what blew me away:
Who are these kids?
Some of these students’ parents pay
more than $200 an hour to have their prodigies coached by an
expert, and the ages of competitors range from 8 to 15. So in the
long-term, the real money is in coaching hopeful prospects later.
Not only do kids from every state in the U.S.
compete, a number of other countries send their brightest young
spellers.
Of the past 23 champions, 19 have had Indian
heritage. Karthik is the 14th consecutive Indian-American to win the

Why
People Don’t Answer the Phone Anymore
Caller
ID!
That’s
my reason. If I don’t recognize the number I let them listen to the
answering machine message. If they don’t want to leave one, I don’t
want to talk to them.
Perhaps
80 or even 90 percent of the calls coming into my phone are spam of
one kind or another. Now, if I hear my phone buzzing from across the
room, at first I’m excited if I think it’s a text, but when it
keeps going, and I realize it’s a call, I won’t even bother to
walk over. My phone only rings one or two times a day, which means
that I can go a whole week without a single phone call coming in that
I (or Apple’s software) can even identify, let alone want to pick
up.
