Žitije Donalda Trampa

Tako zdaj nihče ne more odpustit Muellerja.. Niti sam Dumpo ne.

Lahko ga odpusti namestnik generalnega tožilca, ki zdaj nadzira preiskavo. Rod Rosenstein.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/na...

“I am being investigated for firing the FBI Director by the man who told me to fire the FBI Director! Witch Hunt,” the president said on Twitter.

Rosenstein, the deputy attorney general, had written a memo castigating James B. Comey before Trump dismissed the FBI director — a memo that the White House at first said was critical to the decision, before Trump suggested it was irrelevant because his mind was already made up.

...

Rosenstein, the former U.S. attorney in Maryland, was forced to take over supervision of the Russia investigation because Attorney General Jeff Sessions had recused himself.

And it was Rosenstein who appointed Robert S. Mueller III as the special counsel to lead that investigation after Comey was fired.

...

But Rosenstein has privately told people at the Justice Department, as ABC News first reported, that he may need to step aside from his role supervising the special-counsel investigation, according to officials familiar with the conversations.

If Rosenstein were to recuse himself, the responsibility of overseeing the special counsel would fall to the department’s third-highest-ranking official, Rachel Lee Brand, who was confirmed a month ago to be associate attorney general.

If Trump ordered Brand to fire Mueller and she refused, the responsibility to oversee the special counsel would fall to Dana Boente, the U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia, according to a presidential executive order. Boente is serving as the acting head of the Justice Department’s national security division.

After Boente, the responsibility would fall to the U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of North Carolina and then the U.S. attorney for the Northern District of Texas.

Alternativno pa je menda celo v igri play, da Dumpo počaka, da gre kongres na počitnice in takrat obglavi Sessionsa. V tem primeru ga baje nihče ne nadomesti do naslednjega leta in je ta položaj pač nezaseden.

Tu je malo luknje. Trump lahko med počitnicami odstavi Sessionsa in na pozicijo imenuje drugega kandidata. Tega bi moral potrditi senat, ampak ker je ta na počitnicah po X dneh avtomatično nastopi funkcijo.

Recess appointment @ Wikipedia

Ampak tudi to luknjo se da poflikat. Bodo šli na dopust, ampak vseeno bodo vsakih par dni sklicali 15-minutne pro-forma seje, tako da uradno še vedno zasedajo :)

Če spremljate FoxNews je tam novica dneva boa constrictor, ki je davila eno babo.
V primeru, da je to CNN, je WH tik pred implozijo, USA pe sredi državljanske vojne.
Cui credere?

Republican Senate must get rid of 60 vote NOW! It is killing the R Party, allows 8 Dems to control country. 200 Bills sit in Senate. A JOKE! The very outdated filibuster rule must go. Budget reconciliation is killing R's in Senate. Mitch M, go to 51 Votes NOW and WIN. IT'S TIME! Republicans in the Senate will NEVER win if they don't go to a 51 vote majority NOW. They look like fools and are just wasting time, 8 Dems totally control the U.S. Senate. Many great Republican bills will never pass, like Kate's Law and complete Healthcare. Get smart! If the Senate Democrats ever got the chance, they would switch to a 51 majority vote in first minute. They are laughing at R's. MAKE CHANGE!

Eyes on Prize. Some girls from Trump Model Management were sent on to "resort" in California. NYAG Schneiderman has looped in California Attorney General. Some high profile names are coming up with that part of investigation....Erik Prince, among them.

Retreat" may be better term than "Resort". I'm told. Trump was there, too.

Many questions re Trump models. Some were underage. Some were not. Some did model-some did model and "entertain". Some mostly "entertained".

In resna alu scena:

We may never know what happened to Maria. That's tragic. Trump should be made to tell us. For those of you who ask "who is Maria?"

Out of the ordinary, although I'd guess very well compensated for. The compensation, in this case, could be silence. These liaisons were being recorded. There was a special room under the stairs.

Še malo o Melaniji:



https://nytimes.com/2016/09/01/fashion/...

A couple of weekends ago, Paolo Zampolli received a text message from Melania Trump, the wife of the Republican candidate for president, urging him to give her a call. The next day, Mr. Zampolli, a former modeling agent who had discovered the Slovene 20 years ago in Milan, listened as Ms. Trump expressed anguish over a gossipy report in the British tabloid The Daily Mail accusing her and Mr. Zampolli of operating an escort service in the 1990s.

“This is outrageous,’” Ms. Trump said on the call, according to Mr. Zampolli, explaining that she was considering filing a suit against The Daily Mail for making false and defamatory statements. He said she sounded “extremely disturbed.”

...

By stepping back into the spotlight, Mr. Zampolli, a tireless self-promoter of mysterious means, brings into the 2016 presidential race an explicit reminder of the company the Trumps and Clintons kept in the behind-the-velvet-rope heyday of fin-de-20th-siècle New York. For two couples often accused of having an exceptionally transactional worldview, Mr. Zampolli is both Zelig and an open-collared emblem of the social waters in which they swam.

He secured Ms. Trump’s visa to the United States and introduced her to her future husband at a 1998 party he hosted at the Kit Kat Club. (Mr. Zampolli’s parties have featured an alligator, tiger cubs and models at nightclubs blowing kisses at Fashion Television cameras.)

...

By then, he said, he had already met Mr. Clinton “many, many, many” times. He called Mr. Clinton’s former adviser Doug Band “Dougie” and used to be close to Ronald Burkle, the billionaire investor who was once a close friend, private-jet provider and business partner of Mr. Clinton.

...

These days, Mr. Zampolli has traded in the fashion business for real estate and diplomatic pursuits. In 2013 he became, by appointment, the United Nations ambassador of Dominica, a country of which he is not a citizen. A Brazilian model, Amanda Ungaro, his wife of a decade and the mother of his young son, herself became ambassador of Grenada to the United Nations, also by appointment.

...

An only child, Mr. Zampolli was raised in a wealthy Milanese family.

...

Mr. Zampolli had his eye on other amusements. In 1994, he organized the Look of the Year contest in Ibiza, Spain (“Sponsored by Replay Jeans,” he said, out of habit). He then became friendly with John Casablancas, the founder of Elite Model Management, who suggested he move to New York to work in the modeling business.

//Casablancas je tudi en svoj smad, google him.

He rented an apartment in Union Square and met Mr. Trump, whose grandiosity he admired and who, like him, was a fixture on the city’s nightclub circuit. “We both have a common interest,” Mr. Zampolli said. “We both like beautiful things.”

...

He also traveled the world scouting talent for his agency and met Ms. Trump at a Milan casting call.

Mr. Zampolli recalled that he asked her, “Would you like to come to New York to try the market?” where, he explained, she could make more money. “I would be very interested,” he said she replied.

...

In late 2004, Mr. Zampolli’s fortunes in the modeling business had faltered and he lost a public auction to buy Elite Model Management. After taking in a Victoria’s Secret fashion show, he squeezed into a small banquette at his favorite restaurant, Cipriani Downtown, where he often ate twice a day, with the Trumps and David Copperfield, the illusionist and one-time boyfriend of the supermodel Claudia Schiffer.

...

Mr. Zampolli entered the real estate business as Mr. Trump’s director of international development. (“Ciao, Paolo! Donald’s Matchmaker Goes From Pin-Ups to Penthouses” a New York Observer headline read.)

...

Mr. Zampolli said he soon left Mr. Trump because the developer stopped developing and “there wasn’t much to do because there was no inventory.” Instead, he started shuttling around clients in a Rolls-Royce and helicopters as the founder of Paramount Group. The company made headlines for using former models as brokers to sell luxury apartments.

Back then, Mr. Zampolli explained his thinking to CNBC. “The gorgeous ladies,” he said. “They meet the most rich and powerful people of the world, and some of them, they keep this connection.”

These guys don’t want to see Alec Baldwin in Glengarry Glen Ross. What they want is to be Blake. They want to swagger, to curse, to insult, and to exercise power over men, exercising power over men being the classical means to the end of exercising power over women, which is of course what this, and nine-tenths of everything else in human affairs, is about. Blake is a specimen of that famous creature, the “alpha male,” and establishing and advertising one’s alpha creds is an obsession for some sexually unhappy contemporary men. There is a whole weird little ecosystem of websites (some of them very amusing) and pickup-artist manuals offering men tips on how to be more alpha, more dominant, more commanding, a literature that performs roughly the same function in the lives of these men that Cosmopolitan sex tips play in the lives of insecure women. Of course this advice ends up producing cartoonish, ridiculous behavior. If you’re wondering where Anthony Scaramucci learned to talk and behave like such a Scaramuccia, ask him how many times he’s seen Glengarry Glen Ross.

...

For the pick-up artists, the idea is that simply acting in social situations as though one were confident, successful, and naturally masterful is a pretty good substitute for being those things. Never mind the advice of Cicero (esse quam videri, be rather than seem) or Rush — just go around acting like Blake and people will treat you like Blake.

If that sounds preposterous, remind yourself who the president of the United States of America is.

Trump is the political version of a pickup artist, and Republicans — and America — went to bed with him convinced that he was something other than what he is. Trump inherited his fortune but describes himself as though he were a self-made man.

He has had a middling career in real estate and a poor one as a hotelier and casino operator but convinced people he is a titan of industry. He has never managed a large, complex corporate enterprise, but he did play an executive on a reality show. He presents himself as a confident ladies’ man but is so insecure that he invented an imaginary friend to lie to the New York press about his love life and is now married to a woman who is open and blasé about the fact that she married him for his money. He fixates on certain words (“negotiator”) and certain classes of words (mainly adjectives and adverbs, “bigly,” “major,” “world-class,” “top,” and superlatives), but he isn’t much of a negotiator, manager, or leader. He cannot negotiate a health-care deal among members of a party desperate for one, can’t manage his own factionalized and leak-ridden White House, and cannot lead a political movement that aspires to anything greater than the service of his own pathetic vanity.

He wants to be John Wayne, but what he is is “Woody Allen without the humor.” Peggy Noonan, to whom we owe that observation, has his number: He is soft, weak, whimpering, and petulant. He isn’t smart enough to do the job and isn’t man enough to own up to the fact. For all his gold-plated toilets, he is at heart that middling junior salesman watching Glengarry Glen Ross and thinking to himself: “That’s the man I want to be.” How many times do you imagine he has stood in front of a mirror trying to project like Alec Baldwin? Unfortunately for the president, it’s Baldwin who does the good imitation of Trump, not the other way around.

A military analyst contact whose mentors are in Trump orbit, in a back and forth exchange on some personnel stuff, told me: The "Administration wants to do North Korea & Iran in Year 1, to go into 2018 with national security capital"

Who wouldn't, right? But in what alt reality do they formulate policy in where they think they can do DPRK & Iran as first year checklist? Like a whiteboard in Bannon office, with items to be checked off.

There was more to exchange, suggesting that cuz Trump does not want his own "Iraq" war, they may feel bit constrained in their options. But was dumbstruck by Strangelovean alt reality in which Trump aides could think North Korea is a problem that can be "done" on a convenient political calendar. (Also, Iran.)

Ilan is not joking. believe this is the idea. Why didn't Obama think of that?

Year 1: Iran & North Korea
Year 2: China & Russia
Year 3: world peace
Year 4: reelection

Brilliant. Easy

I've known Secretary Kelly nearly half my adult life & while I've never worked w/him directly, I've enough experience to have insights.

Sec. Kelly is a by-the-book guy, who cares about his personal integrity, and has really good political instincts. He's done 2 tours in Congressional liaison during a period when USMC was considered the best of the services in working the HIll.

He's got deep relationships with members of Congress, having traveled with many over the years & can get most on the phone. He's got deep respect for the power of Congress, and risked Rumsfeld's wrath to do Congressional notification on Haditha b4 it hit press.

I worked w/him on gender integration of basic training, and while he personally didn't want it for USMC, once law changed, he saluted. On Muslim Ban in Aspen, Kelly said DHS are working to ensure that they don't get cross-wise with the courts on enforcement.

So, I believe he will enforce the law, but also push to the limit of the statutory law in President's direction. If you don't like it, you'll have to work to change the law (in Congress). Kelly will have to push in Trump's direction to maintain his trust & stay in job.

I don't believe Kelly will let Trump push past statutory limits or violate the Constitution. (on things like Habeas, for example). Yet, I think Kelly will help Trump be more effective in focusing on parts of agenda that are scary (immigration) vs. stupid (infighting).

I also think Kelly's reputation as a tough-as-nails warrior will help him back down ppl like Scaramucci & Bannon, but maybe not Trump. Kelly believes in Chain of Command, so Trump is the only one who outranks him in the WH. The Q is can he convince Trump to moderate.

Having had a # of convos w/Kelly about civil-military relations, I think he's taking this job out of a sense of duty, to curb excesses.

With Kelly at WH, I think you will see more nationalist-leaning policies coming forward, but not to the point of breaking democracy. Then it will be up to American ppl in 2018 & 2020 to decide if this is the direction we want to go. I hope not. But that's on voters.

At least, w/Kelly, I think we'll continue to have the option of elections to make a change. So get/stay engaged, tweeple.

Najbolje za vse bi bilo, da ta Trump do konca mandata dela na samem sebi in svojih ljudeh v Beli hiši. In da ne dela nič drugega. Tako bo najmanj škode.

To se bo dobro končalo.

New White House chief of staff John Kelly was so upset with how President Donald Trump handled the firing of FBI Director James Comey that Kelly called Comey afterward and said he was considering resigning, according to two sources familiar with a conversation between Kelly and Comey.

...

Comey, who took Kelly's call while traveling back from Los Angeles to Washington, responded to Kelly by telling him not to resign, one of the sources said.

The sources said Comey and Kelly are not close friends but that they had a professional relationship and a deep mutual respect for each other.

Comey declined to comment for this story. The White House and the Department of Homeland Security have not responded to requests for comment.
