Mueller will not be coming (in addition to him stating as much, other honest folks on the Left are starting to see it).

Like I said, October proved to be yet another wild ride in the new culture of outrage and despair. But rules are rules, and another month must be added to Flagpole's EPIC Flagpole streak.
Mueller will not be coming.
The clown steadfastly remains Flagpole.

We're now into December 2018 folks, so you know what that means. Yep, time to add another month to Flagpole’s unprecedented Epic Flagpole streak.
The Midterms were obviously the bulk of the news for the month (especially since some election inexplicably dragged on for WEEKS- so stupid). Since about a month after Trumps’ epic upset of HRC we had been hearing about an impending Blue Wave. Despite the incessant pushing of the narrative by the MSM and record-breaking spending from external sources (remember back when the Left wanted to reign in campaign spending?- LOL!!) though, it was clear from the polling leading up to November that the impact would be less than desired. I believe I started watching the primetime coverage around 8:00PM that evening.....and by 9:00PM, the talking heads at CNN and MSNBC were already clearly disheartened and were saying “well, it’s clear there won’t be the Blue Wave we were hoping for.”
Just for reference, here are some numbers from past midterms considered real “Waves”:
1994, Clinton loses 54 House seats and loses 8 Senate seats.
2010, Obama loses 63 House seats and loses 7 Senate seats.
2018, Trump loses 40? House seats and GAINS 2 senate seats, strengthening the majority in the Senate. Most talking heads (from both sides) acknowledge that he single-handedly kept the damage to a minimum by energetically rallying his base- something you just do not see out of the typical President.
The persistent delaying and prolonging of everything by the Dems is getting ridiculous. They were clearly trying to execute something extremely shady in Florida and Georgia. Has Abrams conceded yet? LOL. Remember when Trump didn’t answer the question in 2016 about conceding directly and the press starting flipping out about him trying to “undermine democracy?!” LOL!! The hypocrisy just keeps on flowing here, month after month. So much fun.
So Trump finally dropped the hammer on Sessions immediately after the elections. Great move. After threatening to de-classify and un-redact all of the FBI/Russia hoax documents and having his “discussion” with Rosenstein last month, you notice how Rod has STFU? He’s in it deep, too.
Notable Fake News from the month:
Manafort and Assange meetings in 2013, 2015 and 2016. It was from the Guardian, and not surprisingly the sources were “anonymous.” The story mentions the dossier, which continues to lose credibility as time goes on. Both parties vehemently deny these two have ever met. Wikileaks laid down a $1M bet (and “their editor’s head”). The Guardian immediately began backpeddling, changing the headline, caveating several areas, etc. It was classic Trump-era MSM TDS at work.
Equally as unprofessional and shameful, NPR flat out lied about the testimony of Don Jr and Cohen when Cohen’s “blockbuster” guilty plea hit the wires this week. Blockbuster is in quotes because the story went from “SEE- COLLUSION!!” in the hours afterward, to the reality that Cohen was just off by 5 months with regard to the last communication about the potential plan for a Trump Tower in Moscow (which had been thrown around for years). NPR claimed that Don Jr’s testimony was that no communication took place in 2016, and that it differed from Cohen’s new claim. The problem is they either intentionally or idiotically (up to you) took his answers regarding a completely different deal and applied them as answers to Trump Tower 2016 questions. Don Jr's testimony did in fact state that discussions went into 2016 regarding Trump Tower in Moscow. After being called out by multiple right-leaning outlets only, NPR admitted it botched the story. But in typical Trump-era MSM TDS fashion, they did not issue an apology. Here’s how they characterized what had happened:
“An earlier version of this report mis-characterized an answer Donald Trump Jr gave to Senate investigators in 2017 about the prospective projects his family was negotiating with people in Moscow.”
That is absolutely NOT what happened though. It should have read something more like this: “Our lead reporter wrongly associated an answer Don Jr gave regarding a completely different deal with questioning about a deal Cohen was developing.”
This is Fake News, people. And journalists at these outlets demand respect and admiration, huh? LOL. But of course, in the era of today’s social media, only about…..I don’t know…..a million or so people posted “guilty!” assertions prior to the outlets correcting their Fake News stories. How many individuals do you think also went back on Twitter and admitted their stupidity as well? Right. Doesn’t matter now. Objective met.
Oh, and remember how the caravan wasn’t an invasion? And these people were all just women and children trying to flee violence (from several countries away, of course)? I think we’ve all now seen the video evidence of the attempted rush at the border, no? And read the stories and estimates provided by DHS regarding the percentage of criminals within of the caravan? "600 of the 10,000." Mexico has already arrested 100 known criminals along the way too. Why would anyone disregard this reality? Strange.
Oh, and the Left’s one time savior, Michael Avenatti, was arrested on domestic abuse charges. Then, he was called out by his sweetheart Stormy for “Speaking on my behalf without my approval.” He sued Trump for defamation against Stormy’s wishes. LOL- Avenatti is such a little twirp.
So another month is in the books, and we still have zero collusion.
Mueller has nothing.
The clown continues to be Flagpole.
