"The White House is running this!"

Did you know that Ambassador Downer helped funnel $25 million dollars to' the Clinton Foundation before he met with Papadopolus? I didn't. That is one reason why we need to keep watching Judge Jeanine!

Rosenstein whines about extortion! Jim Jordan: "It can't be extortion when it is your constitutional duty!"

Judge Jeanine: "What we need is McConnell and Ryan to put their big boy pants on and do something about this unending investigation, and the FBI and DOJ are stalling, redacting, not complying with subpoenas. Judge Jeanine asks, "What are you guys gonna do?" Jim Jordan answers, "We are going to start deposing witnesses this month."

Kellyanne Conway joins Judge Jeanine to talk about President Trump's 500th day in office, which happens tomorrow. "We're more prosperous, more secure, and the government is more accountable!" "Only 7 times in the last 48 years has the unemployment rate been below 4%."

Rod Blagojevich may be pardoned by Trump. I thought Blagojevich was close to Obama! Blagojevich's downfall ultimately came from his desire to trade Obama's vacant Senate seat for something valuable to himself, accoding to David Freddoso in the Washington Examiner. Freddoso continued,

Blagojevich was also pretty confident that the corruption case against him would not amount to anything. "It'll just fade away," he said. In fact, he would be impeached by a unanimous vote of the state legislature in less than two months' time, and sentenced to 13 years in prison in December 2011.

The recording of Blagojevich and Pritzer contains a few other fun nuggets. At one point, in discussing the potential benefits of appointing Pritzker as treasurer, Blagojevich mentioned that he could play up the candidate's connection to the banking industry. Pritzker discouraged this, because Superior Bank had failed under the stewardship of his sister, Penny.

"She was chairman of the bank," Pritzker explained in mentioning its collapse. "It had subprime loans. I mean, bad stuff."

Penny Pritzker was subsequently appointed Secretary of Commerce by President Obama.

Judge Jeanine notes that all other presidents always wait until their last week in office before pardoning people. Trump is doing it now, transparently, and he doesn't care about criticism. Bill Clinton pardoned Marc Rich after Rich's wife gave millions of dollars to the Clinton Foundation. He also pardoned his brother Roger Clinton for cocaine trafficking.
