It didn't say "arranged by" State.  It said "arranged in consultation" with State.  Which could simply mean DiFi's office sent an email to some flunky at State and said "We're doing this, try to stop us."  

 

Interesting that she's not on any committee that really justifies meeting with him, though.

It's okay, she was investigating Russia collusion.

Nah.  Too obvious.  She's probably asking for recommendations for a new driver.

And Praying Mantis.  And Nimble Archer.  And Iran Air 665.  And a quarter-century trade embargo.  And 15 years of routine violations of their airspace and territorial limits.

I'm sure they didn't like any of that but don't forget there was also a movie claiming they were outwitted by Ben Affleck and a bunch of Canadians.  THAT would piss off just about anyone.

Nah.  Checking to see if they have any deltas with smelt that need saving. She and her husband have a spring sale going on.

Ok, so Trump arrives in the UK June 3, May isn't resigning until June 7th.  Hmmmm

Should be interesting to see what happens next. Jeremy Corbyn - yikes. But, who else? 

 

doesn't matter, a logjam of muddling around

The timing of this trip in connection to the order last night and Assange's additional indictments makes me wonder if AF1 will have an extra passenger on its manifest for the return trip home.

Reports today saying how Hezbollah and Hamas are strapped for cash... 

 

They're also getting decimated on the battlefield. 

 

The Mullahs are in big, big trouble. 

Starving them is better than going to war but they must believe we are willing to go to war if needed.

Was listening to BBC this morning.  They politely said that May was dealt a bad hand -- and played it poorly.  That's a pretty good summary. As for successor, they were talking about Boris Johnson or Jeremy Hunt. It wouldn't be Corbyn without a new election, because he's Labor.  They were saying that the Europeans hate Johnson and it would be interesting to see what would happen with Brexit if he were the one.

Purely a conjecture, but I think that’s the  reason Trump has been on the sidelines all along, he wasn’t going to do anything to help May.  He likes Johnson, and if he’s elevated, I expect Trump to provide much more support for the hard exit.
