I'm sure the CBS interviewer must've used the word "appalling"...with a questioning inflection in her voice.

I can't believe what I've just heard in a BBC24 interview of Lewis Lukens, who is apparently still a senior US diplomat but was Deputy Chief of Mission at the London Embassy until Jan 1st 2019...
It is not showing on the BBC website yet but here are some rough quotes:
"There are about 700 US people involved in a presidential visit... it's a LOT of work."
"I don't now why he's bringing his family... that's even more work! There's no reason for them to come! They probably just want to meet the Queen!"
What do you think of the tariff's imposed on Mexico yesterday?
"It's more MADNESS than METHOD!"
That's a pretty amazing statement for a senior US diplomat... Lewis shrugs shoulders as if to say "And???"
Seeing this made me look up his Wiki (link above) and I found this interesting bit:
From 2008 to 2011, Lukens was Executive Director of the U.S. Department of State’s Executive Secretariat, directing management support and overseas travel for Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. Lukens testified under oath in a legal case related to the Hillary Clinton email controversy

Damn written words. Transcript should have a question mark in that case.
Mary, Princess Royal and Countess of Harewood (Victoria Alexandra Alice Mary; 25 April 1897 – 28 March 1965) was a member of the British royal family. She was the third child and only daughter of King George V and Queen Mary and was born during the reign of Queen Victoria, her great-grandmother.
Princess Mary's public duties reflected her concerns with nursing, the Girl Guide movement, and the Women's Services. In the period leading up to her marriage, girls and women in the British Empire called Mary and its variants (including Marie, May and Miriam) banded together to form "The Marys of the Empire," and donated money toward a wedding present.[11][12] This fund she presented to the Girl Guides Association for the purchase of Foxlease, and following the exhibition of her wedding presents, she also contributed half the proceeds to the same cause, for upkeep, a total of £10,000, which enabled the project to go ahead.[13][14]
May grew up in Oxfordshire and attended St Hugh's College, Oxford. After graduating in 1977, she worked for the Bank of England. She also served as a councillor for Durnsford in Merton. After two unsuccessful attempts to be elected to the House of Commons, she was elected as the MP for Maidenhead in 1997. From 1999 to 2010, May held a number of roles in Shadow Cabinets.
The Official Opposition Shadow Cabinet (usually known simply as the Shadow Cabinet) is, in British parliamentary practice, senior members of Her Majesty's Loyal Opposition who scrutinise their corresponding Government ministers, develop alternative policies, and hold the Government to account for its actions and responses. Since May 2010, the Labour Party has been Her Majesty's Loyal Opposition, and its leadership therefore forms the current Shadow Cabinet.
The other issues he's been working on relate to Hillary Clinton. Those are winding down and hopefully we'll be in a position to bring those to fruition.

Did you notice this comment from Barr?

Clinton's illegal server? The Clinton Foundation?

Since Hannity does a deep State show every night, there might be some news to be made this evening.

What a strange situation. Are the tweets still available anywhere? I have been reading all of her tweets this morning. There could definitely be some sort of coded information in there.

So Horowitz did not find anything to refer to the justice department of a criminal nature.
Very disappointing, but Not surprising.
So he has not been active on this front in recent months and so Durham is taking over that role. The other issues he's been working on relate to Hillary Clinton. Those are winding down and hopefully we'll be in a position to bring those to fruition.
