Sheriff Clarke divorcing wife over affair with Muslim woman Freddy Gray?Verified account @Freddygray31 In Trumpland, an inmate dying in one of your jails might not be enough to destroy your reputation. But being seen to have an affair with a Muslim woman is pushing it. Read @SpectatorUSA’s @Cockburn_DC on the amazing story of Sheriff David Clarke. Hedieh Mirahmadi Mirahmadi’s appearance has changed over the years. As late as August 2016, she wore a head covering. However, in her earliest photographed appearances with Clarke, she is not wearing one. In Colorado Springs, she wore a blazer; by CPAC, a dress with bare arms. Why the change? And why would Sheriff Clarke, who once talked up the idea of regular police patrols through Muslim neighbourhoods, allow a woman whose business is selling the kind of soft rhetoric about Islamic extremism that drives conservatives crazy to run his personal brand? What’s more, as late as 2016 Mirahmadi was retweeting Hillary Clinton, and worked for the FBI under Obama. Then, all of a sudden, she was being invited to some highly sensitive off-the-record events in the conservative world. In November, Mirahmadi also changed her Twitter background photo to one showing herself, Clarke, and two big-dollar GOP donors, Harold Hamm and Hal Lambert, as well as Jeff Miller, a finance chair of the Republican Governors Association. Clarke has been squiring her around as his date on his travels, all of which are unrelated to his alleged job as a Wisconsin sheriff. There goes his chance at playing on White House Apprentice Survivor.

Gowdy: ‘Russia Had Disdain’ For Clinton, Wanted To ‘Harm’ Candidacy By Matt Shuham \| March 13, 2018 5:57 pm Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-SC), a member of the House Intelligence Committee, wrote in a statement Tuesday that the committee’s probe of Russian election meddling made clear “Russia had disdain for Secretary Clinton and was motivated in whole or in part by a desire to harm her candidacy or undermine her Presidency had she prevailed.” That statement, flagged by CNBC, seems to be at odds with the one-page summary of committee Republicans’ draft report on the probe released by Rep. Mike Conaway (R-TX) Monday. That document said in part that the committee had concurred with the intelligence community’s January 2017 assessment of Russian meddling “except with respect to Putin’s supposed preference for candidate Trump.” Conaway announced Monday that the committee had completed the information-gathering portion of its investigation and would share a draft report with Democrats Tuesday. Democrats on the committee, led by Ranking Member Adam Schiff (D-CA), have long complained of Republicans’ handling of the probe. Schiff said in an interview Tuesday that Democrats will release a minority report on Russian election meddling, including both evidence of collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia and details on “the investigative steps that were never taken to answer further questions about the Russians and the Trump campaign’s conduct.” CNBC noted that committee Chairman Devin Nunes, who stepped aside from his role leading the Russia probe over an ethics investigation, thanked Conaway, Gowdy and Rep. Tom Rooney (R-FL) by name for their work on the investigation in a statement Monday. Gowdy, who chairs the House Oversight Committee, announced in January that he would not seek re-election to Congress. talkingpointsmemo.com
