Joe diGenova has been talking about the seditious plot to overturn the 2016 election for at least a year, maybe longer. Unlike a lot of the people commenting on this in the mass media, he is not using it to sell books or boost his cable career. He also knows how the FBI and DOJ works from a practical matter. Being knowledgeable makes him a rare guy in the commentariat. Most of the people brought on as experts for the cable chat shows know very little about their alleged areas of expertise.
Regardless, he has been one of the most hawkish people on the Barr investigation, claiming that it is a real investigation with real criminal targets. In this recent radio interview he goes into the details of both the Barr investigation and the ongoing impeachment fiasco. He is a Trump partisan, so his opinions on impeachment are predictable, but his thoughts on the conspiracy are interesting. He probably has access to information from the Trump White House.
The interesting thing about all of this is just how widespread the conspiracy was during the 2015-2016 period. In that interview he talks about former NSA Director Admiral Mike Rogers, who is allegedly cooperating with Barr and Durham. What makes the Rogers issue interesting is that he was the original whistle-blower. He is not treated as such, because the media hates Trump and anyone associated with him, but Rogers was the guy who blew the whistle on the spying to the Trump people.

Mother jailed after crossing border into Mexico to give Christmas gifts to migrants
Mexican authorities arrested a Texas woman after she illegally crossed the border trying to give Christmas presents to migrants awaiting asylum.
Anamichelle Castellano loaded up her truck with more than 300 gifts for migrant children detained in Mexico on Monday, according to KTRK. She and another woman were headed from Brownsville, Texas, into Matamoros, Mexico, when they were stopped by authorities.
Castellano, who owns the nonprofit Socorro Foundation, had been making routine visits to the makeshift migrant detention centers in Mexico since President Trump negotiated that migrants apply for asylum in Mexico before entering the United States.

Man Arrested In Deadly Hit-And-Run Accident Had Been Deported Six Different Times
The man arrested for a deadly hit-and-run accident in Colorado is not only living in the United States illegally, but has been deported six different times in the past two decades.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has revealed that Juan Sanchez — a Mexican national who was recently charged for fleeing the scene of a fatal car accident — is an illegal alien and a repeat violator of U.S. immigration law, according to local reports. The victim’s family members say she was just days away from her 52nd birthday.
Annette Conquering Bear, who was running an errand at a nearby Walgreens in the Denver area, was struck by a vehicle while she was crossing an intersection on December 17. The SUV that hit her never stopped, according to a statement from the Denver Police Department. A witness was able to flag down a nearby ambulance, but Conquering Bear was pronounced dead at the scene.

US planes surveil North Korea amid country's ‘Christmas gift’ threat
The U.S. military sent four surveillance airplanes over the Korean peninsula on Christmas Eve after North Korean leader Kim Jong Un issued a veiled threat of a possible missile launch.
Four planes were spotted in the air above North Korea, according to South Korea’s Yonhap News Agency, after the country said it would send President Trump a “Christmas gift,” which many believe will be a test of several long-range missiles amid heightened tensions between Trump and Kim.
The aircraft included an RC-135W Rivet Joint, an E-8C, an RQ-4 Global Hawk, and an RC-135S Cobra Ball, which flew as high as 53,000 feet above North Korea. They are believed to have carried out missions over and around the peninsula between Tuesday and early Wednesday.

Baltimore on track to break record for most homicides in a single year
The city of Baltimore is rapidly approaching its 1993 record of 353 murders following a bloody year in Charm City.
After two murders on Sunday night, Baltimore was 15 deaths shy of the record set 26 years ago, according to ABC News.
The two women shot and killed just before Christmas were the 337th and 338th residents to be murdered in 2019. Their deaths followed the killing of seven individuals, including three teenagers, that occurred after a shooting earlier Sunday afternoon. Those homicides, along with two other homicides on Saturday, brought the weekend total to 11.
Relative to population size, the homicide rate from 1993 has already been surpassed because the number of residents living in Baltimore has fallen by nearly 100,000 over the past two-and-a-half decades.

Candace Owens: Reparations Are an Obvious Scam
Blexit founder Candace Owens told Breitbart News on Friday that the Democrats proposing “reparations” for black Americans is an “obvious scam” meant for pandering ahead of an election cycle. “They think black Americans are stupid,” said Owens of Democrat politicians.
“I spoke specifically about reparations because it’s just one of the most obvious scams that’s before us, in terms of saying that this is something they want to suddenly take a look at — ahead of an election cycle.” said Owens of her September testimony before a House Oversight Joint Subcommittee Hearing.
Breitbart News caught up with Owens at Turning Point USA’s fifth annual Student Action Summit in West Palm Beach, Florida on Friday.
“This is exactly the sort of pandering that I speak out against,” added Owens of the Democrats’ reparations proposal. “They think black Americans are stupid. They think that we’re emotional. They don’t think that we understand that what we need are better policies, not more handouts.”
“Handouts amount to absolutely nothing,” said Owens. “If they did, black America would be wealthy today, because the welfare industry — 22 trillion dollars has gone into it, and black Americans are poorer today than when it began.

Campaigners call on government to give compensation to ex-military members kicked out of the armed forces because of their sexuality
Campaigners have called on the government to compensate more than 150 people who claim they were thrown out of the armed forces because of their sexuality.
Gay people were not allowed to serve in the military until a rule change in 2000.
Now, prominent LGBT+ campaigner Peter Tatchell told The Independent that thousands of people could have been sacked for their sexuality, and the MOD should contact them all to offer compensation.
He said: 'The MoD should be contacting all those people to advise them that they are eligible for compensation.

The Nine Biggest Food Stamp Fraud Busts of 2019
The Trump administration has done its best throughout the year to keep people from relying too much on welfare such as food stamps, but it also works hard to combat criminals who commit fraud with the benefits for financial gain.
The food stamp program is a federally funded program administered by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), and federal investigators with the agency are most often the ones who catch those engaged in fraudulent activities.
Sometimes, these investigations can occur at the state level because state agencies are responsible for administering welfare programs such as food stamps.
Investigators often uncover millions, sometimes billions, of dollars worth of food stamp fraud, mostly from people who run convenience stores in low-income areas where many customers receive food stamps through the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP).

Former GOP governor under investigation after pardon of child rapist
The FBI is investigating hundreds of pardons former Kentucky Gov. Matt Bevin issued after losing his reelection bid in November.
State Rep. Chris Harris revealed on Monday that a criminal investigator had contacted him last week about the pardons, according to the Louisville Courier Journal.

AOC: America 'evolving into' fascist society
LOS ANGELES — Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said America was turning into a fascist society in response to a heckler at a Bernie Sanders rally.
"It is fascism that we're evolving into," the New York Democrat told the disrupter in Los Angeles Saturday before admitting the distraction had her "thrown off."
Ocasio-Cortez, 30, had been quoting the speaker before her, Harvard Divinity School professor and left-wing activist Cornel West, who once said, "Justice is what love looks like in public."
Ocasio-Cortez, who came to Congress in January after beating a member of the House Democratic leadership in a primary, riffed on West's theory.

Political analyst: Corruption seems like part of Maryland's 'political DNA'
BALTIMORE (WBFF) – Monday authorities announced federal corruption charges against former state delegate Cheryl Glenn.
“It’s almost like corruption is part of American political DNA in the state of Maryland,” said political analyst John Dedie.
Dedie says there is a long history of corruption in Maryland politics.
“Really the corruption of Maryland politics in recent years goes back to the 1960’s and 70s with former governor Spiro Agnew who took kickbacks. Governor Marvin Mandel took kickbacks and was convicted. You also have former Baltimore county executive Dale Anderson,” he said.
