Devin Nunes needs to have his statue raised-up in a Hall of Hero-Defenders of our failing and dying noble enterprise, and rapidly disappearing republic
Yesteray's Daily Caller strongly touted the release of a House Intelligence Committee memo, as shedding much-needed light on strong evidence of misconduct high in the Barack Obama Administration --- most notably focusing on compromised operators in the FBI and Justice Department. At the same time DC compared Congress' release of the memo with a same-day ruling by US District Judge James Boasberg >>> against civilian media efforts to get the FBI to release several memos written by disgraced former FBI Director James Comey, detailing his take on several private conversations that he had with President Donald Trump [probably memorializing Comey's and the President's comments on matters related to those dealt with in the House Intelligence Committee's memo] (See "BREAKING: On The Same Day Trump Releases the Nunes Memo A Federal Judge Keeps The Comey Memos Secret" by Richard Pollack, 2/2/18, The Daily Caller/ Investigative Group [http://dailycaller.com/2018/02/02/comey-memo-lawsuit/]).
According to the article in the Daily Caller --- Judge Boasberg refused to release former FBI Director Comey's documents on this basis: they were still being used by Special Counsel Robert Mueller [and his lynch mob of pro-Democrat lawyers and investigators] looking into largely unproven, and now discredited allegations of Russian collusion with Trump and/or his 2016 campaign associates. The scumbag jurist unabashedly ruled in favor of the "Deep State" or "Shadow Government" --- saying the following: “.... [T]he Comey Memos, at least for now, will remain in the hands of the Special Counsel and not the public.”

This memo was the biggest nothing burger since the pentagon papers. All the petagon papers said was we cant win the war in Vietnam. Well gollllee !! In think by 1971 we knew that.

YOU ARE WRONG ABOUT NOW --- AND YOU ARE WRONG ABOUT THEN
The various public revelations about the existence of "Pentagon Papers" in June 1971, together with their publication, directly led to the unmasking of whistle-blower Daniel Ellsberg, and more importantly, to the formation of the White House Special Investigative Unit, called the "Plumbers," in July of 1971. The "Plumbers" purpose was to "plug leaks";
and their first job was to dig-up negative info to discredit Ellsberg, and one of the things they did was break-into Ellsberg's shrink's office ( that was only the start of their bungling burglaries).....
Flash forward to the Nunez-GOP Majority Report out of the House Intelligence Committee --- this memo is a forward or synopsis of specific acts evidencing "High Crimes and Misdemeanors" in the Obama White House to benefit Hillary Clinton, AND >>> to interfere with the election, inauguration and early administration of his official duties by Donald Trump --- or in a simple easy to understand phrase, an attempted Coup d'Etat.
You can keep calling it a nothing burgher --- Good Luck With That !!!!!
Capano likes to go "HAHAHAHA..."
Well, Gail, now it's our turn to go "HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" at Bob Capano. Holy sh_t, could he ever pick a worse time to switch his loyalties to the Democrats, or what. Especially after he kept telling everybody what a Trump supporter he was during the primary last year.
I read the memo. Take Carter Page from Poughkipsie out of the picture and you have no FISA warrant. Trump team says nobody knew Page.
So where did Carter Page come from?
BTW: I also read The Pentagon Papers, the Knapp Commission report, the State and Federal Constitutions. My question is why cant I find a job?
CAPANO
Chairman, Professor , Columnist, works for a billionaire, donovan, Grimm, Rose and other candidates directly contacting him for Brooklyn Reform endorsement .not to shabby.
Hahahahahahahahahaha
Max Rose and Pam Harris have a lot in common.
Is it that Rose and Harris are both democrats?
Carter Page is a double agent.
Sure he is... Maybe, he's a double-double agent, or even a double-double-double agent. Does either or any of the sides know what he's up to, who he is for and who he is against.
He is definitely a fruit from a poison tree, and now there's evidence that Obama's personal team at the FBI and DOJ made sure of that.
99% of FISA warrants are granted. All they need are a few sheets of paper on Carter Page and the DOJ gets to listen in on Trump operation.
If 99% of fisa warrants are granted than why bother
So Obama did what Nixon tried to do?
Yes 4:53 but nixon failed

YOU GOT IT RIGHT AS FAR AS YOU WENT; WHY DIDN'T YOU COMPLETE THE CIRCLE ALL THE WAY TO THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY AND THE CLINTON CAMPAIGN
You said, ".... All they need[ed were] a few sheets of paper on Carter Page and the DOJ [got] to listen in on Trump operation." Why didn't you finish it; and describe the complete information trail ??? After the FBI/ DOJ had the information, Obama Administration friendlies in the FBI and DOJ made sure it was bumped up to the White House, and then it worked its way over to the DNC, the press and the Hillary Clinton Campaign.
Follow the timeline.....
No. Follow the money.
Comey and the DOJ wasn't angling for overtime. Big bucks in asset forfeiture and all the attorneys fees that go along with it. They met there match with Trump.
Why're 4:53 and 6:04 talking about a "Nixon" in the past, when there is a "Nixon" in the present. This one is Democrat, female, hip, hep and ready to hop.
Nixon Now More Than Ever
That there is a Cynthia Nixon, who is being talked about by anybody here on this '... Independent Republican...' blog, shows that in New York there is so much more going on in, for and with Democrats and the formal Democratic Party than the Republicans can ever hope to think about, much less wish for.
In Brooklyn the Republicans are now suffering from a Ghorra phobia.
800am is correct the fact that Bob Capano and the Brooklyn Reform Party get more attention and press than Ghorra and the Brooklyn GOP is also a testament to thi point.
Ever since the hostile takeover of the Brooklyn GOP and the subsequent merger with Jerry Kassar’s Conservative Party, the Conservatives are shutting down the Brooklyn GOP bit by bit and selling off the remnants.
Cynthia Nixon will beat Cuomo in democratic primary but Cuomo will try to win in November on some other line. Could be chance for GOP victory.
'Could be chance for GOP victory'? Are you serious?
Don't you know that you can't beat somebody with nobody?
Hey 2:18 calm the f*** down. It was just a thought. I mean we are republicans?
The “nerve” of people thinking this is a Republican blog—what could have possibly given them that notion? Well except for “The Brooklyn Independent GOP Fountainhead”.
This is a Brooklyn Republican blog.

Thank u Chairman Capano
thank u
Thanks for this multi use intervention on behalf of Bob, GM. Technically he got less than that amount and it’s a little hard for Bob to be taken seriously as Chairman of anything after such a pitiful showing.
Thank you Gale for realizing all these ridiculous attacks on Capano, probably by McCabe and/or Quaglione and their supporters are only because while they have faded, Capano has risen, stronger and more powerful than ever -- just ask Marty Golden who will be groveling to Capano for an interview for the Reform Party line any day I hear.
So 203pm are you assuring us that Marty Golden will not come before Capano seeking his line???????????
Capano has already met with Gournados..ball is in Marty's court!!!!
Capano holds all the cards in m arty Goldens race and the 46th ad..Will be close races and the Reform line can make the difference.
Lead CHAIRMAN!!!!!!
We need a parade for the Chairman. A grand parade.
Bob
Hang in there
Brooklyn supports u
When I hear the word "Leadership" I think of Bob.
Quagalopogus tweeted about some St. Patrick's parade meeting. What he didn't tweet is that his Boss Marty G, who has control over such things, will have to change the name of the Brooklyn St. Patrick's Parade to the Brooklyn St. Bob Capano Parade if Golden even wants an interview from the Reform Party.
Bob Capano has led an exodus of Brooklyn Republicans from the party and the clutches of Marty Golden and Ted Ghorra. Those who have followed Bob Capano out of the GOP and into the Reform Party include the following well known Republicans: .... ( That's to name only those that came to mind immediately. I'm sure Bob Capano will provide a more complete list if he is asked.
Chairman Capano leads and watch the big news
God Bless u Bob
god bless u
Today's storm is named Liam.
says much
That nobody followed Capano out of the Republican Party and into the falsely named Reform Party showed the world what kind of leader he is apart from his own hype. So far, the only bobody to go into the Reform Party is bocapano.
953..fake news as usual.
We're you at Bridgeview yesterday when Capano led a meeting of about 100 people , many well known Republicans..I think not
Ahahaha
i heard there were 1000's of bobs followers at the Bridgeview
1044am
Always something.
Ahahaha

Make up your mind either the Reform line means something and that's why you will Opportunity to Ballot or it doesn't and no one would..can't have it both ways!!!
Ahahahaha
411pm
Marty Golden certainly is pursuing it.
Ahahahaha
Barkan and the greek guy running against marty look like a pack of losers. A rally with a bunch of junkies from bushwick got marty 80% of the vote.
Word is John Gangemi is running
Multiple sources confirm that Liam’s relationship with Dan Donovan has soured—probably because Jerry wasn’t able to get him his old job back—and that Liam is now organizing for Michael Grimm in Brooklyn.
If Liam does for Grimm what he did for his own campaign, Donovan is a winner
Seemed like Liam was trying to keep it quiet for as long as possible.

NICE TOUCH, QUOTING THE BARD BACK AT ME FOR A CHANGE --- GOOD CONCEPT, GOOD EXECUTION --- BUT YOU DIDN'T STICK THE LANDING
Caesar and Brutus are from long ago AND far away, and not in a Jo Stafford way.....
If you want to use Shakespearean references talking up what I'm reading about Congressman Donovan and Liam McCabe, it should leave nothing to the imagination; and the paraphrase needs to look like this:
".... For Liam, as you know, was Dandy Don's angel:
Judge, O you gods, how dearly Danny loved him (and his rugged handsomeness)!
This was the most unkindest cut of all;
For when the noble Dan saw Liam stab,
Ingratitude, more strong than traitors' arms,
Liam quite vanquish'd Dan: then burst the Congressman's mighty heart....."
Dan Donovan kept every single Grimm staffer on the payroll in Brooklyn even though he was advised to clean house. This is how the Brooklyn Cons repay him and how Jerry keeps his end of the bargain. Did they think they were so clever that Donovan supporters wouldn’t find out about Liam organizing for Grimm?
Where are you people getting your 'information'?
The Conservatives are supporting Donovan, including Kassar and Long.
What makes you think Liam McCabe is 'organizing' for Grimm?
This all sounds like a lot of fake news. Gail, get to the bottom of this.
Ah the Cons thought they were so clever that it wouldn’t be exposed. If Kassar and Long were honorable people then they would be embarrassed that their ground team is supporting Grimm. But they’re just hedging their bets for the pork that comes with the Congressional. Liam personally organized event at the Leif for Grimm that took place on Tuesday night, kind of corny that he didn’t show up as if that would fool anybody.
we all know the Leif is Liams place!1 Remember he had his campaign kick-off there, and i hear he is spending a lot more time there again lately!
The cat is out of the bag, Liam was calling people and asking them to go. Jerry is afraid that Donovan will lose the primary to Grimm.
I hear Julianne Cuba is on this McCabe betryal of Donovan story after Donovan endorsed McCabe in GOP primary. Angle is McCabe upset didnt get job back. McCabe not going to look good. If his elected office hopes werent over, they will be
Liam is counting on Grimm to help him win an anticipated primary against John Quaglione and Steve Saperstein for Pam Harris seat.
Liam doesn't live in 46th
112pm
I hope it's true Liam is and can run in 46th if lives there, would love to see Quaglione and Orlando kick Liam and Gerry Obriens ass again
Liam changed his address when he registered as a Republican. It’s gonna be such a cluster as Kassar has already made promises to Liam, Steve Saperstein, and Senator Storobin.
Let's not forgot Kassar s promise to the man who works in the office with him -- John Q..
Liam new address is Sisto address on 6th avenue, not in 46th
Q knows very well Kassar stabbed him in the back in primary to help Liam and finished him off by interfering in get out the vote on election day. you can cut tension between them with a knife.
What Q will hate more is Kassar through his interference with the get out tg3 vote operation and Capano running on the Reform line basically worked together to defeat Q in November and not I hear they are buddies again working to elect Donovan..
Kassar is worried that Grimm will beat Donovan and is looking the other way while Liam helps Grimm.
I hear Craig Eaton is begging Donovan to let him endorse him so he can seem relevant.
After the dirty game the Cons are playing against Donovan—the whole Brooklyn Office is full of KCCP hacks while Liam and the Cons back Grimm on the down low—Donovan is in no position to turn down any offers of support.
Donovan spoke to Brooklyn GOP Exec committee last night. I was there. Donovan said publicly he has no relationship with Eaton anymore and does not seek his support..
If Congressman Donovan doesn't "seek the support" of all the GOP players in Brooklyn, including someone like former Kings County GOP Chairmen Craig Eaton, then Dandy Dan Donovan is a fool, and that's on top of all of his other well known and >>> often whispered <<< problems, which ykw will be shouting about soon enough.
Dan Donovan does indeed have a relationship with Craig Eaton. Eaton is the one who tipped him off to the problems that the Brooklyn Office was having last year hence the arrival of Robert Birkhead from Staten Island, even Donovan knew not to hire any more hacks from BK Cons. The Cons golden boy Liam is backing Grimm and Donovan can read the writing on the wall.
I was at the meeting..Donovan praised Ghorra and Kassar and said no relationship with eaton
Actions speak louder than words. Donovan is no dummy, he already cut off the gravy train for the Cons in Brooklyn and it’s only a matter of time before he has to acknowledge the obvious that Liam and Jerry stabbed him in the back. Without Liam the conservatives are useless on Election Day and therefore useless to Donovan. Ghorra’s latest political guru of the day is not old enough to drink. The jig is up, pretty soon it’s going to be Donovan doing the asking for Eaton’s support.
There is only one thing that matters - Can Max carry the district under any circumstances?
926 am
last I checked Fran Vella still is Brooklyn Director- COnservatives still run the show in Brooklyn.
Eaton who???
Let's see if we see Donovan getting photographed with Eaton anytime soon- not happening..
Kassar said so
Kassar also sent out frantic emails assuring everyone that Liam is on board with Donovan and then got embarrassed once the cat was out of the bag regarding his support for Grimm. Fran Vella still has a job with Donovan but when they needed backup they called in a guy from Staten Island and didn’t ask Fran or Jerry what they thought. First Donovan has to survive the Primary and if he’s relying on the Brooklyn Cons for his support, we’ll probably be discussing Eaton possibly supporting Grimm in the general.
I havent heard or seen Eaton in months- he is a non-factor-
Anyone claiming that Donovan and Eaton are besties is mistaken, anyone claiming that Donovan and Eaton don't speak with each other regularly is also mistaken.
Bottom line, if there was any friction between bklyn conservatives and Donovan, congressman could fire fran..he has not..all good..Eaton still on outside looking in
Eaton does not have enough influence with Donovan to hire or fire anyone but he does have Donovan’s ear which is driving Kassar nuts. Either Kassar and Long are held in low esteem by Liam, or they were secretly encouraging him to stab Donovan in the back, either way Donovan can read the writing on the wall.
As long as Fran , the Vice Chair of the bklyn conservative party and Kassar right hand person is Brooklyn director, all talk of any friction between Donovan and bklyn conservatives and Kassar is obviously just Eaton trying to create something for Donovan paying him no attention , as the Congressman said himself last night.
If it was all talk, Donovan would have hired more of their cronies instead his people from Staten Island to work in Brooklyn. He would have rehired Liam, and either way Liam wouldn’t dare back Grimm and defy an incumbent being officially “supported” by the cons. Talk about giving Eaton more credit than he deserves.
