4…………> Puppy Mules: Drug Cartels
Colombian veterinarian Andres Lopez Elorza pleaded not guilty to DOJ charges that he used his surgical skills to turn puppies into drug mules by stitching packets of liquid heroin into their abdomens.
“As alleged in the indictment, Elorza is not only a drug trafficker, he also betrayed a veterinarian’s pledge to prevent animal suffering when he used his surgical skills in a cruel scheme to smuggle heroin in the abdomens of puppies,” US Attorney Richard P. Donoghue said.
“Dogs are man’s best friend and, as the defendant is about to learn, we are drug dealers’ worst enemy,” the attorney added.

5…………> Mueller Illegal Trap: Destination Trump
A New York Times “leaked list” of questions supposedly being on Robert Mueller’s interrogation roster of President Donald Trump tentative interview is like an endlessly rotating 45 rpm phonograph record of all already disproved by Congressional committees Russia-related controversies surrounding his campaign and the early days of his presidency.
The president tweeted that it was disgraceful the questions were made public and claimed that their topics proved there was no “collusion”.
The only question now is for how long Mr. Trump will allow this outrage to continue, order AG Sessions to fire Rod Rosenstein and dismantle Robert Muller’s “snake pit” by finally starting to use his full presidential discretion and power.
