Media Orchestrations


I could be fooling myself but it seems that, in the lead-up to former FBI Director James Comey's TV testimony tomorrow, both sides of this political symphony are pulling media strings to help their case. Trump just announced his choice for  his new FBI  Director, Christopher Wray ... and Obama's former intelligence chief, James Clapper, said in Australia yesterday that Watergate pales in comparison to the current Trump-Russia collusion probe (interestingly, in his recent Congressional testimony, Clapper said that there was no evidence of collusion in this matter).

Where will the truth eventually land in this ever-shifting kurfuffle? I certainly don't know ... or if we will ever know ... but it is becoming increasingly clear to me exactly how this political music is scored. And the fact that Clapper has pulled his u-turn at this late hour ... presumedly with no access to newer relevant information ... suggests to me that the Democrats may be hitting a sour note.
