The only way I can see it stopped is some sort proprietary system built in to limit the designs available for each printer, a complex new design approval process etc etc,

Sounds about right. On that note, that's a very white boat.

What Are the FBI and CIA Hiding?

By Thomas J. Baker

July 31, 2018 7:11 p.m. ET

Did the Central Intelligence Agency lead the Federal Bureau of Investigation down a rabbit hole in the counterintelligence investigation of Donald Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign?

Although the FBI’s case officially began July 31, 2016, there had been investigative activity before that date. John Brennan’s CIA might have directed activity in Britain, which could be a problem because of longstanding agreements that the U.S. will not conduct intelligence operations there. It would explain why the FBI continues to stonewall Congress as to the inquiry’s origin.

The loony leftists are with the Treasonous Kleptocrat. He's doing a better job than they ever could of wrecking the global capitalist order.

Take a look around. A lot of supposedly right-wing movements aren't being seriously challenged by the loony left, makes you wonder why?

Contemplating using an Executive order to bypass Congress and reduce taxes for the mega rich by about 100B is going to be pretty hard for them to spin to the Trumplestiltskins, but somehow they're going to swallow it, aren't they.

Willing to get into Trade war for that kind of money, willing to shut down the gubmint for not funding his White Elephant Wall for similar sums, but why not? Tax breaks for the 1%.

Trump supporters trust the president more than their family and friends, poll finds

Donald Trump’s supporters trust the president for accurate information more than their own friends and family, according to a new poll.

CBS News asked more than 2,000 Americans who they turn to for accurate information, regardless of whether they agree with the source's views. Ninety-one per cent of strong Trump supporters said they turned to the president. Only 63 per cent said they looked to their friends and family.

Perhaps unsurprisingly, only 11 per cent of those who strongly supported the president who popularised the term “fake news” said they trusted the mainstream media for information. Americans’ trust in media as a whole slipped to its lowest point in history in September 2016 – two months before Mr Trump’s election – and has remained low ever since, according to Gallup survey results.

Since taking office, Mr Trump has regularly assailed the media and encouraged his supporters to trust in him above all else. Discussing his controversial trade policy at a veteran’s conference this month, Mr Trump told supporters: “Just remember, what you’re seeing and what you’re reading is not what’s happening."

But Mr Trump regularly makes inaccurate or misleading statements himself. Just two days before the CBS survey was published, the president tweeted that his poll numbers were the highest in the “history of the Republican party”, including President Abe Lincoln. The first national presidential poll was conducted in 1936 – three decades after Lincoln died.

According to a Washington Post tally updated at the end of May, Mr Trump had made more than 3,200 false or misleading claims in the past 497 days.

FISA documents reveal FBI collusion

As various commentators predicted would be proven, the bulk of the information that formed the basis for the FISA warrant applications was the “dossier” of allegations about Donald Trump’s activities in Russia. This dossier was provided to the FBI by British spy Christopher Steele. Steele was hired during the 2016 presidential campaign by opposition research firm Fusion GPS, who was paid by Hillary Clinton’s law firm Perkins Coie, who was paid by the Clinton campaign and the DNC. The allegations were scandalous and completely unverified, in violation of federal statutes and FISA court rules.

In other words, the FBI used oppo research paid for by the Democrats as justification for government spying on a political opponent and other Americans.

But there’s more...

If you read the actual FISA application, the Steele dossier isn't nearly as prominent as Devin Nunes would have you believe. The supporting evidence and validation for inquiry was presented to multiple judges (all Republican appointees) before it could proceed, and these had to be renewed by the Judges every 90 days.
