The plot against the President revealed

 The Federalist:

Based on Lee Smith’s book of the same name, “The Plot Against The President” tells the incredible story of the Russian collusion hoax in documentary form. It’s pro-Trump, but also a work of journalistic import given the critical contributions from witnesses and stakeholders who recall the investigation in detail. What’s more, “The Plot Against The President” is stylish, making a compelling case with the benefit of Hollywood flair, rare for overtly conservative productions.

That’s easier to do when your director is a USC film school graduate and the daughter of Hollywood royalty. Such is the case with Amanda Milius, whose father is legendary writer and director John Milius, the man behind “Dirty Harry,” “Red Dawn,” and much more. “I have the unique position to be not a political person that decided to make a movie, but I’m a film person that happened to land in politics for a period of time,” she told The Federalist in a Monday interview.


It shows. In Milius’s hands, “The Plot Against The President” is an artful recounting of the collusion hoax, with a compelling and deliberate aesthetic that elevates the content. Milius describe the look as “D.C. Noir,” noting that she applied techniques more commonly used in scripted features to bring “Plot” to life, shooting the “bureaucratic nightmare vibe” of Washington by capturing those “monstrous buildings” that “feel soulless and empty.”

This is the backdrop against which Devin Nunes, Jim Jordan, Kash Patel, Richard Grenell, KT McFarland, Sidney Powell, Michal Anton, and Lee Smith himself walk viewers through the long, twisted, sordid affair. “Plot Against The President” does a good job zooming in on key details while also hovering at 30,000 feet to keep the story contextualized in a broader perspective, which is perhaps the biggest challenge to understanding the full scandal. Milius does this by dipping deeper into the backgrounds of people like James Comey and Michael Flynn to build an argument about motives and character.


The opportunity to use Smith’s book as the the basis for the film, which was financed by private investors, is “what really made” Milius want to do it, she said. “Lee had the insight to tell the story through characters as opposed to documents, and that’s something you could actually make a movie about.”

“You can’t really make a movie about court dates and documents and hearings, but you can make a movie about people,” Milius emphasized.

The Russian collusion hoax is exposed in this video.  It was a nefarious Democrat plot starting with Hillary Clinton and embraced by Barack Obama and Joe Biden.

Should Republicans go ahead and add Supreme Court Justices to head off Democrats

Washington Post: Some Democrats eye adding more justices to the Supreme Court to change its ideological bent The once-remote idea has gained the attention of liberals angered by the GOP push to remake the federal courts. Probably the easy way to defeat this court-packing scheme is for Trump to propose doing the same thing now.  It would lead to Democrat denunciations and claims that it would be wrong, thereby blowing up any attempt by them in the unfortunate event of Democrats winning a presidential election.

29 % of companies say they are unlikely to keep insurance after Obamacare

Conn Carroll: A new survey of 368 midsize to large companies found that 29% of them are considering terminating their active employee health care plans when Obamacare is full implemented in 2014. Only 71% of employers surveyed said they did not expect to drop their health coverage, while 20% said they did not know and 9% said they were planning to exit. The latest survey, conducted by Towers Watson, echoes an ealier survey by McKinsey & Co. finding that 30% of private-sector employers were planning to drop their employee health insurance coverage by 2014. When the Congressional Budget Office crunched Obamacare's spending numbers, they estimated that only 7% of employees currently covered by employer-sponsored plans would lose their plans. ... This means the cost of the health care fiasco will be hundreds of billions more than estimated by the CBO and Congressional Democrat. It is also clear that Obama's pledge that you could keep your health care plan if you wanted t

Bin Laden's concern about Zarqawi's remains

James Robbins: ... Bin Laden suggests that President Bush should allow Zarqawi’s body to be returned to his family in Jordan, but this is a matter that is up to the Jordanian government, which so far has not shown much interest in facilitating a homecoming. Bin Laden mocks King Abdullah II, calling him a Coalition minion, and asking “w hat scares you about Abu Musab after he’s dead? You know that his funeral, if allowed to happen, would be a huge funeral showing the extent of sympathy with the mujahedin.” A large crowd would definitely turn out, though most people would be on hand to demonstrate their anger and disgust. Last November’s hotel bombings in Amman , masterminded by Zarqawi, are still fresh in people’s memory, and mentioning them to Jordanians has the same visceral impact as memory of the 9/11 attacks does here. Jordan has adopted a zero-tolerance policy towards those who choose to mourn the country’s least favorite son, and four opposition members of parliament who paid con
