Here are my observations and opinions on the news of the day.

DRAMA QUEEN Former CIA Director John Brennan, known for lying to Congress, came unglued and weighed-in on President Trump’s tweeting lauding the firing of former Deputy FBI Director Andrew McCabe saying, “You may scapegoat Andy McCabe, but you will not destroy America … America will triumph over you.”

Is that a threat, Mr. Brennan?

THEN HOW ABOUT THIS warning from fellow deep state member Samantha Power, the former UN ambassador who reportedly unmasked more than 200 Americans. Power, who promoted former President Obama’s feckless foreign policy, responded to Brennan’s tweet with – “Not a good idea to piss off John Brennan.”

I’m really worried. Not.

@Beebo Johnson tweeted “So Samantha Power is basically acknowledging the existence of deep state weaponizing of the intelligence community to retaliate for political or personal reasons … Sad!”

@HoldingOn2Stars tweeted “So we’re supposed to sit back and let corruption happen because exposing it is going to cause John Brennan to have a hissy fit?”

THINGS TO COME – I mentioned in yesterday’s post that the McCabe firing was just the beginning, and that we could expect more heads to roll when DOJ IG Michael Horowitz soon releases his report.

While I expect agents Peter Strzok and Lisa Page to face the music, Roger L. Simon of PJ Media refers to them as “small change.”

Simon expects the report will include the nefarious actions of “James Comey, Loretta Lynch, John Brennan, James Clapper, Susan Rice and, almost inevitably Barack Obama, not to mention others known and unknown.

“All these people’s reputations will be damaged forever for the pathetic purpose of getting Hillary Clinton elected president and later for their determination to manipulate the FBI and intelligence agencies to would as severely as possible Trump’s presidency.”

The optimistic Simon predicts that Democrats “will be embarrassed when the details come out,” and when they do he suggests it’s time for their “ever-loyal media allies to think twice. (They) should want the government to be accountable to the citizenry.”

I believe we are in for some interesting days ahead that will make you forget Watergate.

MAX BOOT, a Russian-American who has written op-eds for many of the leading newspapers and is currently a fellow at the Foreign Relations Council, tweeted, “The firing of Andrew McCabe is the latest attempt by the Trump administration to undermine the FBI, obstruct justice, and pervert the rule of law.”

“WHAT A CROCK,” responds Brit Hume, a political commentator on Fox News Channel, “To believe this, you have to believe that McCabe did not mislead investigators, but the FBI’s own Office of Professional Responsibility claimed that he did and use that false claim to recommend he be fired. It’s all part of a Trump conspiracy. And I’m Napoleon.”

@McNicollb adds “Max continues to debase himself in attempt to remain relevant.”

WHAT IS IT ABOUT RELIGION that brings out the worst from the left? Just recently, Joy Behar of ABC’s The View, was forced to apologize to Vice President Mike Pence for her mocking his relationship with God, and to the thousands of Americans who let ABC know they didn’t appreciate her remark.

Unable to let an opportunity to mock someone’s religion go by, this time it was MSNBC’s Stephanie Ruhle, who commented on-air about Larry Kudlow’s comment, “However things work out, it will be God’s will.”

Kudlow made the comment on CNBC, where he as been a longtime contributor and commentator.

Ruhle also suggested that “the challenge” for Kudlow is that “in the position he’s in now he has to stand there and represent real data,” then added, “well, as Larry Kudlow says, ‘It’s God’s will,’” as she lifted her coffee mug with a smirk.

Even CNBC’s Washington Correspondent Eamon Javers felt the need to comment on his former colleague’s statement of “God’s will,“ asking “Did anyone else key on this comment from Larry Kudlow …?”

“Kudlow has publicly shared his story of finding a way out of substance abuse and addiction and converting to Roman Catholicism in 1997,“ wrote Lauretta Brown in Townhall. “He used the phrase God’s will in discussing his difficult decision to leave CNBC.”
