On Tuesday, White House Communications Director Hope Hicks reportedly admitted to the House Intelligence Committee that she’s told “white lies” for President Donald Trump. On Wednesday, she announced her resignation.
A new report suggests the two developments may not be unrelated.
According to CNN, Trump was furious with the head of his communications shop following her testimony. In a report presented on OutFront with Erin Burnett, the host (citing an unnamed person identified as a Trump ally) said that the president “berated” Hicks following her testimony on Tuesday.
“That source telling me Hicks departure was sudden,” Burnett continued. “The source saying Trump berated Hicks after her testimony to Congress yesterday, you know, the nine hours in which she admitted to telling lies on behalf of the president.”
“According to the source, Trump asked Hicks after the testimony, how she could she be so stupid,” Burnett continued. “And apparently that was the final straw for Hope Hicks.”
Of course the official story is that Hicks has been planning this move for quite some time now, but no reporter had even hinted at that. And for the leakiest White House in America's history that simply did not pass the smell test.
So if this report is correct that Hicks was Trump's "last emotional crutch," and that she is abruptly leaving him high and dry after he berated her, I have no idea how much worse things are about to get inside that White House.

James Clapper states publicly that intelligence community assessment of Russian interference serves to cast doubt on the legitimacy of Trump's victory.
Courtesy of Crooks and Liars:
On CNN last night, Erin Burnett questioned former Defense Intelligence Agency director James Clapper about Russian interference in the election.
She asked him about Trump's reaction to those intelligence briefings.
"When we briefed him, if you're speak of the briefing on the 6th of January, he was very curious, complimentary and he did listen," Clapper said.
"And frankly, the evidence that we provided in detail --which of course we couldn't expose publicly-- was pretty overwhelming. It's why we had such a high confidence level in what we said in that assessment. And so I thought it was a good discussion. He had some doubts about some things, but that's fine to be skeptical about some things. But on balance, I thought we successfully conveyed the message because the substantiating evidence was quite compelling and we didn't hear anything about the 400 pound guy in his bed in New Jersey."
"Which is and I think very important, as you said, because I think obviously when he says publicly is different than what you're describing, which is sort of the way you want an incoming president to respond, courteous and receptive and listen," Burnett said.
"I have to say, Erin, I think what this was maybe the first or early harbinger of what I think really motivated him is, our intelligence community assessment did, I think, serve to cast doubt on the legitimacy of his victory in the election and I think that, above all else, is what concerned him. I think that transcends, unfortunately, the real concern here, which is Russian interference in our political process, which by the way, is going to continue," Clapper said.
And there you have it.
This is why Trump is desperate to shut down these investigations.
He KNOWS they will ultimately de-legitimize his victory and that is what terrifies him to his core.

CNN host Erin Burnett shocks Trump surrogate with story of time the presidential candidate tried to force himself on her friend. Update!
Courtesy of CNN:
A friend whom CNN anchor Erin Burnett has known for years recounted an experience she had with Trump in 2010 that echoes his words in the tape that surfaced Friday.
In March 2010, the woman -- who asked not to be identified -- met Trump in a boardroom in Trump Tower.
Another man -- a colleague of Burnett's friend -- was in the boardroom at the time of the incident.
The woman told Burnett: "Trump took Tic Tacs, suggested I take them also. He then leaned in, catching me off guard, and kissed me almost on lips. I was really freaked out. ... After (the meeting), Trump asked me to come into his office alone. Was really unsure what to do. ... Figured I could handle myself. Anyway, once in his office he kept telling me how special I am and gave me his cell, asked me to call him. I ran the hell out of there."
I am probably a horrible person but I really enjoy that deer in the headlights look on the Trump surrogates face as she realizes what is happening.
Of course at this point I am so disgusted with Trump that I simply write off any woman that would still attempt to defend him as a self loathing POS.
However the important takeaway from this interview is the knowledge that the tape we all saw yesterday is likely just the tip of the iceberg.
As was mentioned a number of times on various cable news shows yesterday Trump has been on a number of shows, including Miss USA and the Apprentice, so there is likely quite a lot of audio that will come out featuring behaviors and language similar to what we heard on that video.
What's more it lends credibility to every negative story we have heard about Trump's treatment of women, including the story that he fired female employees for not being pretty enough, the rape allegations, the human trafficking story concerning his modeling agency, and of course this woman's story:
In an hour-long interview at the Guardian’s New York office on Tuesday, Harth said she stands by her charges against Trump, which run from low-grade sexual harassment to an episode her lawyers described in the lawsuit as “attempted ‘rape’”.
She first met Trump in December 1992 at his offices in Trump Tower, where she and her then romantic partner, George Houraney, were making a business presentation. The couple wanted to recruit Trump to back their American Dream festival, in which Harth oversaw a pin-up competition known as American Dream Calendar Girls. Harth described that meeting as “the highlight of our career”.
But in other ways, it was something of a lowlight: Trump took an interest in Harth immediately and began subjecting her to a steady string of unwanted sexual advances, detailed by Harth in her complaint.
There was the initial leering in that first December meeting in Trump Tower, and the inappropriate questions after her relationship status. It continued the next night over dinner at the Plaza Hotel’s Oak Room, where at a dinner with beauty pageant contestants she alleges he groped her under the table.
This all culminated at Mar-a-Lago where:
“He pushed me up against the wall, and had his hands all over me and tried to get up my dress again,” Harth said, “and I had to physically say: ‘What are you doing? Stop it.’ It was a shocking thing to have him do this because he knew I was with George, he knew they were in the next room. And how could he be doing this when I’m there for business?”
Remember when you are a "star" women even let you "grab them by the pu**y." Unless of course they don't.
This was back in 1993, the rape allegations are from 1994, and the lewd tape was from 2005, but there is absolutely NO evidence that Donald Trump has changed in anyway.
This is who he is, this is what he is, and this is who now represents the Republican party in the 2016 presidential election.
And if the GOP does not realize that more is coming they are seriously deluding themselves.
Update: It looks like Mike Pence has suddenly dropped out of that Wisconsin campaign event with Paul Ryan today.
Gee I can't imagine why?

Shockingly Ted Nugent's assertion in recent CNN interview that he participates in raids with the DEA, ATF, US Marshals, FBI, and Texas Rangers is all BS. What, Ted Nugent lies?
Here is what he said to excuse his word choice:
"I've been a cop in Lake County, Michigan, since 1982 thereabout. I conduct federal raids with the DEA and ATF and U.S. Marshals and the FBI and Texas Rangers and heroes of law enforcement.
"And we are re-arresting fugitive felons let out of their cages after murdering and raping and molesting children, carjacking. And we keep going after these guys.
"The adrenaline is something like you will never experience, I hope you never have to experience it, but when we are done with these kinds of raids, we get together and our hearts are broken that we have to face these monsters. We call them mongrels. We call bad people who are destroying our neighborhoods mongrels."
I know what you're thinking. Can Ted Nugent even spell DEA and FBI, much less join them in a raid?
Interestingly enough the folks over at Politifact wondered the same. So they did a little checking: '
I've been a cop in Lake County, Michigan, since 1982 thereabout'
Lake County, Mich., is located about 90 miles north of Grand Rapids. It has about 11,500 residents and describes itself as "an outdoor recreation paradise."
Nugent is a reservist for the county sheriff's office, Sheriff Robert Hilts told us. But, "He’s never joined us for any raids. Fortunately, we don’t have those sorts of problems up here."
Hilts said Nugent has no authority or official responsibilities. The only activity involving Nugent that Hilts could recall was raising money on behalf of the department and for a local boy who has cystic fibrosis.
"We’re always searching the woods for a hunter that’s lost or hurt," Hilts said. "He helped us buy a four-wheel drive offroad vehicle so we could reach people faster."
They "don't even have those sorts of problems" you say? Well that's one, but surely he was not lying about all of them, right?
'I conduct federal raids with the DEA and ATF and U.S. Marshals and the FBI and Texas Rangers'
Nugent does not seem to be a cop in the way most people would understand that word. The picture was about the same for the federal agencies Nugent named.
The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (ATF) told us, "We are not aware of him conducting any raids with us."
We asked the Texas Department of Public Safety on what occasions Nugent had joined Texas Rangers on raids. Press secretary Tom Vinger said, "In regards to your question about the Texas Rangers, that did not occur."
Joe Moses, a 22-year veteran special agent at the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), told us they have no record or recollection of Nugent participating in any of their operations. However, when there are special projects that involve many federal, state and local agencies, they wouldn’t necessarily know the name of everyone who showed up.
At the same time, Moses said there are strict standards for who is involved in an actual raid.
"You would not have someone who didn’t hold the status of a police officer or federal agent participate in such an operation," Moses said. The process of arresting a person or collecting evidence must withstand challenge in a courtroom. It is not a place for the inexperienced, Moses told us.
So not only has Nugent NEVER been included on a raid, he is not even qualified to do so.
Ahh, but not all of the agencies listed went on the record to reveal that Nugent was full of shit.
The FBI said it could neither confirm nor deny Nugent’s participation in a raid.
Which of course is FBI speak for, "Ted Nugent go on a raid with us, what are you nuts?"
The only evidence that in any way supported Nugent's claims seems to be a ride along he did for his reality show with the US Marshals nine years ago. However he was not allowed inside the homes of suspects, and had to wait outside in the car or on the sidewalk.
In other words Mr. Draft dodging poopy pants made the whole thing up in order to distract from his racist remarks.

Full CNN interview between Erin Burnett and Ted Nugent last night. Might need your antacid pills for this one.
So as you all know Nugent cancelled a planned interview with Burnett the night that his "mongrel" reference concerning President Obama got national attention, and he was called out for using language similar to what the Nazis used to dehumanize the Jews during the Holocaust by Wolf Blitzer.
Apparently being called a coward by just about everybody, and having even many former conservative supporters turn on him, proved too much for Nugent and he decided to risk showing his hateful mug on cable news again.
The interview starts off with Burnett asking him if he really meant his apology to the President.
Of course Nugent cannot bring himself to give a straight answer so he starts off by suggesting that Burnett's ability to comprehend English is flawed:
Erin, come on. You've got this English language down really well. I bet you understand when the question is, do you apologize and I answer yes.
You don't really have to ask that question again, do you?
Burnett then plays a tape of, first Ted Nugent using the term "mongrel" to insult the President, and then Obama using the word to describe how ethnically mixed the American people are these days, because Nugent had used that comparison to defend his racist remarks.
As the interview proceeds Nugent continues to demonstrate an adversarial attitude and at one point claims to have been responsible for getting Piers Morgan thrown off CNN and essentially threatens Burnett with the same:
NUGENT:But for anyone to claim that I am a racist or it had racist overtones is the typical crap that the propaganda ministry and the media, particularly most of your cohorts there, even though I got Piers Morgan's ass thrown out, and I'll do the same with Don Lemon and Wolf Blitzer when I can...
BURNETT: All right, don't...
NUGENT: But you might be able to stay on...
BURNETT: - just do me a favor, don't talk about my colleagues that way...
NUGENT: - because I appreciate that.
BURNETT: I respect them both greatly. But let me...
NUGENT: Well, I just - I just did. They don't deserve respect.
God this guy is an arrogant prick.
Later Burnett shows a clip of Nugent referring to the President as a "chimpanzee" to which Nugent claims he calls everybody a chimpanzee:
Do you really think that I referenced any race as a primate?
I call my buddies in my band chimpanzees when they miss a good guitar lick. Come on, give me a break on that. Now, I referenced no racial overturns there whatsoever. I was referencing people who would look in the camera with those four dead Americans in Benghazi and refuse to be accountable and say, what difference does it make?
Yeah, okay.
Burnett next calls Nugent out for calling Hillary Clinton the C word, to which Poopy pants decides to compare himself to the great Richard Pryor, and says it should be okay because Bill Maher called "the great" Sarah Palin the same thing.
However he then claims that in deference to the wishes of his family he is no longer going to call people names.
Oh yeah, does anybody think that is even a possibility for this trash talking racist has been?
I will hand it to Erin Burnett however, she did an excellent job of holding Nugent's feet to the fire concerning several of his racist and misogynistic remarks.
Well done.

CNN's Wolf Blitzer calls out Ted Nugent for using Nazi buzzwords to insult President Obama. Later, true to form, Nugent chickens out of interview on CNN. Update!
Courtesy of Politicususa:
“That’s what the Nazis called Jews to justify the genocide of the Jewish community,” Blitzer said in a Feb. 18, 2014, interview. “They called them untermenschen, subhuman mongrels. If you read some of the literature that the Nazis put out there, there is a long history of that specific phrase he used involving the president of the United States.”
The above exchange is in response to news that Greg Abbott brought Nugent onto the campaign trail to help bolster his credibility with the 2nd Amendment crowd and escaped mental patients.
In response Nugent took to Twitter to essentially say "I know you are but what am I?"
In fact Nugent even tweeted about it.
Courtesy of Media Matters:
Ted Nugent canceled a planned interview on CNN's Erin Burnett OutFront after comparing the network to Nazi propagandist Joseph Goebbels and lashing out at host Wolf Blitzer for condemning Nugent's inflammatory rhetoric, including attacking President Obama as a "subhuman mongrel."
On her CNN show, Burnett revealed that Nugent had canceled the interview two hours before it was scheduled to air, citing illness.
What, he only used the old "I'm too sick" excuse?
I would have thought for something this scary he might have been willing to crap his pants again.
And this, this is the guy that Greg Abbott thought would bolster his tough guy reputation with Texans?
The Wendy Davis campaign should send Nugent a fruit basket or something for all of his invaluable help.
Update: Wendy Davis weighs in with an e-mail to her supporters:
When I read what Ted Nugent has said about women, I was outraged.
Greg Abbott feels differently. His values allow him to embrace an admitted predator who takes advantage of young girls, calls successful women vulgar and disgusting names, and demeans and degrades not just the women of Texas, but anyone who disagrees with his narrow-minded, disrespectful point of view.
If this is Greg Abbott’s idea of good Texas values, it’s simply repulsive.
Greg Abbott calls Ted Nugent a “fighter for freedom.” Ted Nugent calls Greg Abbott his “blood brother.” I call their alliance repulsive. This is an issue for every father, every mother, and every family in Texas.
We will not allow the women of Texas to be treated like this. Help me fight back. Contribute $5 right now to show Greg Abbott and Ted Nugent that their values aren’t Texas values.
I won’t mince words -- I find Ted Nugent disgusting. And I find it disgusting that Greg Abbott is sharing a stage with him.
But this isn’t just about my feelings. Every Texan should be offended by Greg Abbott’s decision to make a predator the new face of his campaign.
Campaigning with a vile character like Ted Nugent is a window into Greg Abbott’s character. And we need to show him that we won’t tolerate it.
You know I think that Ted Nugent just handed the race to the first female Governor of Texas since the 1990's.

Jon Stewart and the Daily Show continue their justified assault on CNBC.
I am in total support of Stewart just ripping these guys a new asshole. They provided cover fire as big business committed Hari Kari and took the money of millions of investors with them.
My only concern is that Jon leave the angel of my investing dreams, Erin Burnett, out of this. She is a delicate flower of business news and she must not have even one of her petals bruised by the snarkiness of the Daily Show. You have been warned Mr. Stewart, if in fact that is your real name.
Just look at how serious she is. She is not a barely housebroken chimpanzee like that Cramer guy, she is the epitome of professionalism and understated sexiness. If I am going to receive bad news about the stockmarket I demand that it only be delivered by Ms. Burnett. If I could but hope for such a thing it might even make me scrape together my loose change and actually buy a stock.
