Investigative reporter John Solomon broke another HUGE story on Tuesday.
According to Solomon the FBI knew in early 2017 that the VAST MAJORITY of the Steele Dossier was wrong or unverified. And yet they continued to use the fake document anyway to spy on Trump and his campaign, transition team and administration.

Well, this is a bit of a “fun” story, or is it? I don’t know, which is why I’m filing this one under the “you tell me” category. As Angela Merkel continues to shake both herself and her government apart, there’s been some rather odd “symbolic goings on” in that country. A few days ago I blogged about the intriguing story that Germany has completely rebuilt the facade of the old kaiserlicher Staatsschloss on Unter den Linden in Berlin. The building had, as its name implies, been the official state residence of the Kaisers until Wilhelm II’s abdication, but it was maintained until after the Second World War when the Communists – who else? – demolished it in an effort that would make Confederate statue destroyers envious, for in its place a monstrosity of a modernist architectural box was built. Well, the box itself has been demolished, and in its place has risen the facade of the old Staatsschloss. Of course, the inside of the building is not restored. Wilhelm II’s tastes were decidedly “not modernist” and ran to the Baroque (oddly enough) both in art and music, and restoring the interior of the old Kaiserschlosswould have been prohibitively expensive.

Huge news generating a ton of headlines……. Trump tweeted and the liberal establishment media and Democrats lost their collective minds. Big surprise huh? Like that hasn’t been happening since the first day the then-candidate Trump rode down the golden escalatorwith his beautiful wife Melania and announced his candidacy for presidency.
In Sunday’s Part one of “Pelosi Loses Control’ ANP detailed the all-out war that has broken out between the socialist “Squad” of four newly elected Democrat House members, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN), and Rep. Ayanna Pressley (D-MA), and basically the rest of the Democrat party, including the Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi, and the Congressional Black Caucus, some of whom Ocasio-Cortez aligned groups are targeting for primaries in the 2020 elections.

With the majority of people in the West having extraordinarily short memories, it should not be surprising that there has been little question of the IMF’s Christine Lagarde being nominated to run the European Central Bank. However if one goes back just two years you would find that Lagarde just happens to be a convicted criminal of financial crimes
International Monetary Fund chief Christine Lagarde has been convicted over her role in a controversial €400m (£355m) payment to a businessman.

Why are we suddenly seeing so many cases of flesh-eating disease all along the east coast of the United States? For years, flesh-eating bacterial infections were so rare in the U.S. that even a single case would make national headlines. But here in 2019 the news is telling us that we are seeing flesh-eating infections “at a rate much higher than in previous years”, and this outbreak really seems to have escalated dramatically over the last couple of months. In fact, I found so many cases as I was doing research for this article that I had to simply stop reading at one point or I would have never gotten this article done in time. So in this article I will be sharing quite a few examples with you, but it is far from an exhaustive list.

President Trump’s counselor Kellyanne Conway skipped an Dem-led House Oversight hearing on Monday and defied a Congressional subpoena by refusing to testify about her (non existent) Hatch Act violations.
Politico reported
In a letter to Rep. Elijah Cummings (D-Md.), the chairman of the panel, White House Counsel Pat Cipollone asserted the Trump administration’s long-standing view that current and former presidential advisers are “absolutely immune” from congressional testimony, writing: “Ms. Conway cannot be compelled to testify before Congress with respect to matters related to her service as a senior adviser to the president.”

The French Interior Ministry is beginning to feel an administrative strain as a large number of asylum seekers continue to flock to the country. The French government has seen 10,000 applications filed by Albanians and Georgian nationals alone so far this year, an 80 per cent increase for Georgian asylum seekers compared to the same period last year, newspaper Le Figaro reports.
While both Albania and Georgia are considered safe countries for deportation, the influx is putting the asylum bureaucracy under even more strain as asylum seekers with little chance of gaining refugee status clog the system.
