Bongino show today
|
Bongino laid down lots of interesting stuff today. Amongst these is the news about Flynn,
in which Flynn's new attorney, Sidney Powell, has claimed that the first attorney, "Covington",
did a poor job of representing him.
The interesting part was that there was a conflict of interest. Covington gave bad advice
to Flynn, and the Mueller gang used that information to charge Flynn with a crime.
But get this--- It was Eric Holder who was on the Covington team when this all went down.
Got that? In other words, Holder may have framed Flynn. Covington represented Flynn in
the original filing of the FARA report that supposedly Flynn had to file. But what if
Flynn didn't have to do that, and the government prosecuted a case even though Flynn
didn't do anything wrong, and was misrepresented by a law firm who had a prominent member who
political ax to grind?
It's a serious conflict of interest and now the court is going to look into it.
It amazes me that Flynn's case hasn't been thrown out yet. The way this is going, the
only ending that will make any sense at all is if the case is indeed thrown out.
Niacin Lowers Cholesterol Better than Prescription Drugs

There was a book out more than 20 years ago that mentioned the benefits of niacin. It also included a reference to oat bran as helpful also. I tried the oat bran, but it was hard on my stomach, so I stopped that. In addition, I never bothered trying the niacin part.
It turned out that later, the oat bran part of this cholesterol cure was discredited.
Evidently, this was a bit premature. There does appear to be a benefit of oatmeal as well as niacin. I've been reading on this subject this morning, and the stuff out there surprises me a bit. For more information about foods that help you with your cholesterol, check this slideshow.
Update:
Oldie, but maybe a goodie. It so happens that I'm trying this experiment with oat bran and niacin in order to see if it helps with my own cholesterol. It will be a while before my next wellness visit, though.

Examiner | Rachel Hillier Pratt | A new study out shows vitamin B3, also known as niacin, lowers bad cholesterol more effectively than a common statin drug, ezetimibe, sold as Zetia...However a new study, published in the New England Journal of Medicine, not only shows niacin contributing to a more significant drop in bad cholesterol (LDL), but also shows increases in the amount of good cholesterol (HDL). ..high doses of vitamin B3 can cause occasional discomfort known as flushing. According to the homesteading website, Doctoryourself, flushing causes “a pinkness about the cheeks, ears, neck, forearms and perhaps elsewhere. A slight niacin flush should end in about ten minutes or so.

Letting their freak flag fly

The commie and the peter puffer seem to be the front runners in the freaky Olympics, aka Democrat nominating process.
If the commie wins the presidency, you can say goodbye to economic growth, if not outright sanity. But come to think of it, sanity left the Democrats four years ago at the very least. They've been going nuts for a lot longer than that.
You have to be really over-the-top in order to make Hillary look good. Without Hillary, they are lost. With Hillary, they threatened to take us over into the Twilight Zone.
I'd like to think that neither a commie or peter puffer would have a chance to win, but Obama won in 2008 and again in 2012, so who knows?
Considering that the GOP doesn't care that much about winning, maybe those wins can be explained away. At any rate, it is hard to see Trump losing to these whack jobs. The control of Congress is a different matter. Trump is a serious person, but the Congress-critters need to grow up.
Update:
It's all related to this kind of behavior. The leftists will preach about the rule of law, then proceed directly to overthrow it. The amendment at the time gave a deadline for ratification. The deadline has long since passed, but now the Democrats want to claim that the deadline didn't matter in the first place. To these monsters, those words mean nothing now, but they did then. If the law itself said a deadline existed then, then there is a deadline now, or the law means nothing.
This is not about the rule of law, but the opposite. Do it the right way, or there will be nothing legitimate about it. Pass it in Congress, then submit it to the states. Otherwise, it is just a way around the law.

The small group
Bongino has it all wired.
He likes to say that these people know each other and have something to hide. They continue to cook up scandals to facilitate their cover-up. He calls the relief pitcher scam. It is a baseball ball term applied to this political situation. A manager replaces the pitcher once he becomes too ineffective and replaces him with a relief pitcher. The situation in politics is similar with respect to the continual scandal-mongering from the Democrats. Once a scandal is no longer useful to them politically, they cook up a new scandal. It is from the same group of people who all know each other and have something to hide.
Why do the rest of the Democrats join in? I'm thinking that they have made a strategic decision to rally around this small group.
Contrast that with the GOP who seem to abandon their leadership even at a hint of trouble. Which is best? Are the Democrats right or the Republicans?
In the Watergate case, perhaps Nixon had to go. Not this time, though. There was no crime, nor is there likely to be a crime in which the Democrats could credibly pursue Trump.
If the GOP would respond aggressively, they could impose a heavy price on the Democrats. Party loyalty has its limits. The Democrats are rallying around a criminal class. No matter who you are, you cannot wish for a criminal class to have political power. Nobody but the crooks benefit from that.

From the "you can't make this stuff up" file
Dying isn't much of a "solution".
A Cambridge academic has proposed a radical new way to solve climate change – letting humanity become extinct. Patricia MacCormack, a professor of continental philosophy at Anglia Ruskin University, has just released her new book "The Ahuman Manifesto", which will officially be launched in Cambridge today (Wednesday, February 5).
Comment:
Only a modern academic could think up something like this.
Who's to benefit from the "solution"? If all solutions mean the end of mankind, why not blow it all up instead?
Maybe the cockroaches and rats would agree with this professor, but nobody will be left to "interview" them. Perhaps if you can just learn their language first, but don't die before you do it. Nobody will be there to read it.
