Treasons I'm Coming for You (The Mueller Investigation Part 72) (January 3, 2019)

First one. I’ll be a legend when they publish these in the Ny Library.

OP, marry me NOW, dammit. Perfection!!!!

R5 I can't accept until I know what state you're in.

Thanks OP

[quote]I can't accept until I know what state you're in.

Intoxicated, I think.

R8

It would be delicious if the next round of indictments were Republican members of Congress and not Jr, Erick and Vankie Pankie.

Look at me.

LOOK at me.

LOOK AT ME!

LOOK! AT! ME!!!!

I will not be denied. Either you look at me or I will destroy the Democratic Party!

If this business about 22 corrupt Senators is correct, it’ll require widespread demonstrations by the public to make sure they don’t sweep the whole thing under the rug. Because there will be a lot of pressure to do just that.

And I am telling you this now, so I don’t have to tell you later.

I wasn't sure if that was AOC or Sanders.

Why can't you give me the respect that I'm entitled to.

Why can't you treat me like I would be treated by any progressive on the street?

Because I am NOT. ONE OF YOUR FAANS!

Same OP from a different browser?

Or different OP?

Because we are not ONE! OF! YOUR! FAAANS!!

Who are the lowlife Senators, I suspect that they are all Republicans.

Great title OP!

Thank you, OP

Something like this?:

I think it's way more than just 22. How many of those fuckers took NRA money knowing it was from the Russians?

Goddam useless bag of shit rob Portman gobbles up every cent if that blood money he can get his grubby hands on but he wasn't on that list.

Just knowing that Mueller can fuck with that two vote majority in the Senate will make me happy if this is anywhere close to being true.

Cjs3827 on twitter seems to have sources for his information. Could be crap. He says 56 republicans tied to Russia.

Can the “February! February!” Troll fuck off and leave this thread alone?

Did you notice that he would NOT let it go? He wants to build up and then smash the spirits of people here.

Just know that bribery, extortion and blackmail is a big part of how Putin operates and is how he gets what he wants.

How many European politicians were in the Hapsburg group?

So - the most surprising thing to me about the Cheeto over Christmas - is that he does appear to have stayed put in DC and not decamped to Florida. I know someone was saying there wasn’t a marine stationed outside his door or whatever as if to prove he’d gone - but surely if he had gone - we would have heard. And they flew his whore back from Florida - so it seems unlikely he managed to get there...?

So here’s the thing:

Will he refund the people who paid to have ‘presidential time’ with him there over the New Year? Or will they get invites to come again and a chance to see him later? Or did they just pay their money and took their chances - and now just have to suck up that it’ll just be treated as a donation to the trump organisation now? Do you think any of them actually mind if this is the case? Or do they all have so much money that it’s not even an issue - and they’ll probably somehow use it as a deduction next tax time?

Any thoughts?

[quote] Will he refund the people who paid

tRump issuing a refund??? Ha!! Like that would ever happen. He's a "take the money and run" kinda crook.

Someone needs to sit that Congresswoman down and tell her she has two choices: She can shut her fucking mouth and learn how to be an effective member of Congress and really do something for her district, accomplish something, or, she can keep being an attention whore, daily demonstrating to people how unsuitable she truly is in this job, and, like her mentor, Bernie Sanders, accomplish nothing. Does she think she won't be primaried if she gets too outrageous?Because the Democratic leadership is giving her some room to grandstand, but she is in for a very rude awakening.

R27, he sent Melania and there were other family members around. There are no refunds at Trump events.

Nancy Pelosi said there is a possibility that special counsel Robert Mueller could indict President Donald Trump while he's still in office. Pelosi voiced the opinion in an NBC "Today" show interview broadcast on Thursday, hours before she is due to be confirmed as the speaker of the House of Representatives, a position she held from 2007-2011.

She said that Department of Justice guidelines, which say that a sitting president should not be indicted, are not "conclusive."

When asked about the guidelines by "Today" co-host Savannah Guthrie, Pelosi said: " I do not think that that is conclusive. No I do not."

Republicans win because they have discipline in the ranks. Republicans would not tolerate an upstart like AOC for a second and would hand her her ass in a basket if she tried any of the bullshit AOC is trying to pull now. Why do Democrats put up with this crap?

R31 also defends Rump so...

What time is the swearing-in at the House?

Apologies if this was already posted but .... wow.

3 PM swearing-in. Thought it'd be in the morning.

What are the chances of AOC interrupting Pelosi's swearing-in to say a few a words?

R36, I could kind of see her pulling a Kanye.

[quote]I could kind of see her pulling a Kanye

Pics please.

R32, I already had R31 on block.

Pelosi is deeply stupid, flip side of the Trump coin. Your country is doomed. Consequently, so is ours 🇨🇦

R40, you’re no more Canadian than I am from Kazakhstan.

R25 I am no troll. The stupid poster I was going back and forth with (you perhaps?) couldn’t understand what I was saying. You don’t own these threads bitch, most of us have been here since the beginning.

How is Pelosi stupid? Have you seen her speak? Her IQ is clearly very high. Examine her sentence structure. It's clearly indicative of high IQ.

[quote] Let me say this: What the President is representing in terms of his cards over there are not factual. We have to have to an evidence-based conversation about what does work, what money has been spent, and how effective it is. ... This is about the security of our country. We take an oath to protect and defend, and we don’t want to have that mischaracterized by anyone. ... So let us have a conversation where we don’t have to contradict, in public, the statistics that you put forth but instead can have a conversation about what would really work and what the American people deserve from us at this uncertain time in their lives, where they have apprehension.

Sure, R42... the OP is stupid.

Seems to be the responses to you quite understood what you were saying and disagreed. You didn't seem to understand that so you actually sound stupid... and like a troll.

R35 I thought the swearing in was at noon EST.

lol. Mr. February February begs to marry OP then turns around and calls OP stupid.

How classy to call people stupid because you don't understand they disagree with your opinion.

R45, yeah, I guess it's "live" at 3 PM supposedly:

Ms. Nancy is kicking ass and taking names.

Um r44, if r25 is the OP, and I don’t care enough to check, then that’s great because my response at r5 shows what I really think of OP.

R46, I was told to fuck off, so I think calling someone stupid is no biggie. All we were arguing about is if Mueller leaks and my point was we both agree he DOES NOT. Again, I’ve been here the whole time, so maybe it would be a better use if your energy to save it for real trolls and not someone there was a stupid bitch fight with. Or keep attacking people here who contribute to these threads? I don’t give a fuck honey, do what you want to as will I.

Carry on.

Anyone else find it odd that Seth Abramson hasn't said a word since 12/31?

Children should be seen and not heard.

Nope, R49.

[quote] Or keep attacking people here who contribute to these threads? I don’t give a fuck honey, do what you want to as will I.

Which is what you did. And you apparently do care as you responded each time.

You called someone stupid that disagreed with you - not the person that told you to fuck off. And again, the disagreement wasn't that anyone in Mueller's camp leaks it was anyone who has any dealings with what Mueller submits leaks.

So if you're going to call someone stupid than you should probably make sure you're referencing the right thing/person.

Blahblahblah

Very interesting interview with Pelosi about indictment etc.

R53

Rating

Did someone post a link in the last thread that said Dems in the House could pull a card against people refusing to testify and have them arrested?

Jill Stein---- they're coming for you!

R52, the argument was that it was possible the leak came out of the AG’s office. And you couldn’t accept that that is a possibility. That’s it!!! So you’ve started a huge thing over the fact that you don’t think that’s possible. Holy shit, are you doing cocaine?????

I care enough to respond, that’s how these “boards” work. I’m saying I don’t give a fuck if you want to go back and forth with me all god damn day, THAT is what I don’t give a fuck about, get it now? All that’s going to happen is you and I will shit all over the thread. I don’t want to do that. But if you keep challenging me in an effort to have the last word, you might actually (gasp!) get a response from me. So go ahead again.....I know you need to quote me and dissect.

"When you're negotiating with someone, you have to know— you stipulate to some fact. It's hard to do that with the president, because he resists science, evidence, data, truth… It's hard to pin the president down on the facts."

R58, no you're on crack because you keep thinking that you're talking to ONE person. I am not the one that even responded to ANY of the posts talking about February so I'm not someone that "couldn't accept the possibility..." And further, the people who WERE responding didn't say they "couldn't accept the possibility," they stated they didn't agree.

And if you are OP, this is even more a shame because obviously we are on the same side lolololol! I live on these threads, I’m here to share and mostly read! Not fight. Fuck I haven’t even had my coffee yet. Here is my olive branch — I have no vested interest in a month or a leak or anything of that sort, so if my posting made you feel trolled, I sincerely apology. That was NOT my intention.

Sounds like a troll.

Well r60, I haven’t even had my coffee and I awoke to being told to fuck off, I’m too sleepy to figure out who is who, my bad, sorry.

JFC R61 learn to figure out who you're talking to.

I wish Romney would run again. He might end up the hero of this whole thing, among the Republicans.

He gets Russia.

That said, I'd still vote for Beto.

Pool boy lover.

Isn't Romney saying he isn't sure who he's going to support in 2020 an admission that they expect to primary Dotard (or that they don't expect him to be running again)?

I am currently imagining that the fighting posters on this thread are (R) House members with nothing else to do today.

Romney is being a speculator again, putting in a stake early in the game, and seeing how things turn out for Trump. If Trump's approval plummets and the GOP starts to disapprove of him, Romney can show he was among the first to make a clear stand.

Dow is down 500 as tariffs and repulsion with Trump in China affect Apple sales in China. His trade war is devastating.

R32 & R39, This is what R31 thinks of MSNBC as well as the bloggers and Twitter who are working hard to keep us informed:

[Quote] So many stupid assholes sticking their head in the sand, all the while parroting the "experts" on MSNBC (the same MSNBC "experts" who featured Michael Avenatti as a constitutional scholar ) and internet blogs.

Hating on MSNBC for their efforts.

Dow is down 650. The market finally knows what we have in the the White House and where this is leading.

Wall St is criticizing his latest absolutely idiotic tweet.

Interesting to note that the "February! February!" Troll at R42 is also the same "What nudies?! Where are the nudies?! HUH? WHAT NUDIES?!?!" disruptor as well.

Also interesting is how he denounces hall monitors and "thread owners" in this thread but is monitoring the content in the Pelosi thread and attacking others left and right.

Please stay on topic and stop wasting posts on attacking trolls, AOC, or Nancy Pelosi. If you don’t like AOC create another thread and post there.

Ok r74, now I KNOW you’re a troll.

Everyone, I am Your Cunty Mother, and yes, I have been a CUNT to posters attacking Nancy. If you look at the Liz Warren poster, I’ve done the same to those who attack Warren. In addition, I extended an olive branch here and yet, we have r74, looking to fuck up our thread by derailing it.

Block r74. Today is a special day, and this thread should be filled with what’s happening in Congress.

R74, go fuck yourself!

Love......Your Cunty Mother

Thank you r75

Rudy Giuliani, tweeting last night:

According to CNN witches favor Democrats and they are offended that the Meuller investigation is described as a Witch Hunt. There is no reason for the witches to be offended because Witch Hunt derives from, for example, the Salem Witch Hunts where people were executed unjustly.

(If I were a better person, I might feel a twinge of pity for Trump having such a buffoon as a lawyer. But I'm not, so I revel in it.)

R74 has no other posts in this thread. How suspicious!

Not R74, I meant R75.

Rudy is as dumb as he looks r78

And I do think the tide is turning. This week and next week will be filled with goodies.

Have Trump’s comments about India’s contribution to Afghanistan been in the news there? It seems a minor thing but I imagine comments like his create further aminosity between nations.

The Trump administration is considering a far-reaching rollback of civil rights law that would dilute federal rules against discrimination in education, housing and other aspects of American life, people familiar with the discussions said.

A recent internal Justice Department memo directed senior civil rights officials to examine how decades-old “disparate impact” regulations might be changed or removed in their areas of expertise, and what the impact might be, according to people familiar with the matter. Similar action is being considered at the Education Department and is underway at the Department of Housing and Urban Development.

Civil rights advocates said diminishing this tool could have sweeping consequences.

That’s all he does is shit out words that divide, whether it’s here at home or with our allies.

No, R83, just his comments supporting the USSR's invasion of Afghanistan and his comments that Mattis and the rest of the military hasn't done a good job in Afghanistan.

And his other strategy is to keep our key players in the government so focused on correcting problems he’s creating that they can’t get to all of them. See that above WaPo article.

R87, the tactics of a true sociopath.

Since Speaker Pelosi knows the language to use with a sociopath, it looks like she's done her psychological research. I take heart in all her new hires. It looks like they are planning to meet him on multiple fronts.

Usually victims get so exhausted and confused that they shut down. As we've seen in these very threads, being able to take a break to refresh--while others step in to carry on--is a luxury most victims don't have. It is important that anyone going up against someone like Trump knows what they're dealing with. Hillary had his number, but would not go for the jugular.

Speaker Pelosi will.

[quote] Republicans would not tolerate an upstart like AOC for a second and would hand her her ass in a basket if she tried any of the bullshit AOC is trying to pull now. Why do Democrats put up with this crap?

Yes, let's be envious of the Republican party where everyone knows their leader is a traitor and a huge detriment to their future, but no one says anything because their rulers wouldn't be happy.

[quote] Someone needs to sit that Congresswoman down and tell her she has two choices: She can shut her fucking mouth and learn how to be an effective member of Congress and really do something for her district, accomplish something, or, she can keep being an attention whore, daily demonstrating to people how unsuitable she truly is in this job, and, like her mentor, Bernie Sanders, accomplish nothing. Does she think she won't be primaried if she gets too outrageous?Because the Democratic leadership is giving her some room to grandstand, but she is in for a very rude awakening.

Ocasio-Cortez is my congress person. I hate to break this to you but Ocasio-Cortez doesn't owe Nancy Pelosi or you anything. When people in our district voted for her it was not because they hoped she'd quietly tow the party line and maybe in twenty years she'd get to play a bigger role. She's doing exactly what she was sent to Washington to do. And as for this mythical Democrat leadership stepping in to primary her? How is that going to work? The national DNC as well as the vaulted party machine couldn't even save Joe Crowley after twenty years of fealty.

And right now, r89, she is one of 237 Democratic Congresspeople.

In order to not be a flash in the pan, she needs to keep the focus on her.

We will see how that goes, won't we?

Yes, R88, hopefully Nancy will accomplish a lot as long as someone like Ocasio-Cortez doesn't stab her in the back first.

R89, how would you like it if some dumb ass recent college grad with no real world experience came to your job and started telling you how to do your work. This is what AOC is trying to do. Nancy has more knowledge of politics and the ins and outs of DC and how to get things done in one of her finger nails than AOC has in her entire body. I love when AOC trades barbs with Republicans, but she needs to can it with the internecine warfare.

"She's doing exactly what she was sent to Washington to do"

And that job is to split the Democratic party into two separate factions, and if she doesn't get her way she'll take all her marbles and her supporters and go home? Sounds like a sound plan to me!

R27, I'm sure the people who missed out on seeing Donny Moscow at Mar-a-Lago New Year's Eve will be first in line to apply for visitor passes to see him in 2020.

Interesting in R91's logic how AOC is both powerful enough to take down the leading Democrat in the land BUT also has no idea what she's doing.

Which one is it gramps?

[quote]Can the “February! February!” Troll fuck off and leave this thread alone?

I must have this troll on ignore already.

“You’re on cocaine!”

“YOU’RE doing CRACK!”

“Get the fuck out!”

“I DO WHAT I WANT!!”

“Who are you talking to?!!! “

“NOT SURE, SORRY!”

I look forward to seeing Junior in handcuffs, crying.

R95

Yeah, can it with the in-fighting or get a room. Trump* and the GOP are the enemies.

.

Hey, asshole at R93: if you think for one minute that AOC is going to make a difference in your life or the lives of any of her other constituents just because she got elected to congress, you really are stupider than a box of rocks. Any progressive action she attempts to take will be thwarted by Trump and the Republican led Senate, so she's just tilting at windmills at this point if she thinks any of her progressive platform is going anywhere.

AOC's main job, and every other Democrat/Progressive is to present a united front to the Republicans, and work to get Trump out of office before he does any more damage, then effectively neuter the Republican party so it dies a slow, painful death. Sniping at Nancy Pelosi and other Democrats is a sure fire recipe for disaster, but by all means, if you're satisfied with the status quo, carry on.

Oh, and R71, go fuck yourself.

You sound very jaded R99.

Thank you, R86. It is on the main BBC news here in the U.K. His odious behaviour beggars belief.

You sound like a Trump/Republican ass kisser, R100.

R100 here. Not going to keep this going, but please keep in mind that one of the major reasons we have Trump right now is the Democratic party ordained a candidate that did not excite a lot of their voters and was an anathema to GOP voters . And every time we said "hey what about our views" we were told to shut up and vote. A lot of us did. I certainly did. Please consider that when you keep advocating that AOC shuts up and toes the party line.

And you are out of your mind if you thought/think the US electorate would elect a Jewish socialist to be POTUS, R103.

With either Hillary or Bernie, you got Trump. Deal with it, move on and let people with just a tad more political expertise than neophyte Berniebros handle the situation.

[quote]Trump right now is the Democratic party ordained a candidate that did not excite a lot of their voters and was an anathema to GOP voters . And every time we said "hey what about our views" we were told to shut up and vote.

Oh more of this bullshit. Hillary didn't "excite" voters which is why she had 3 Million more votes than Dotard. Yeah, keep preaching this false bullshit and ignore that the actual reason we have Dotard is because of Russia.

Nice try though.

AOC voted Pelosi.

r100 the reason we got Donald Trump was Gerrymandering, Vote Theft, and Russian Intervention due to Collusion by a Raft of Republican Traitors. Hillary Clinton won the popular vote by millions of votes. Can it with the "she wasn't exciting" talking points dribbled straight from Putin's mouth into your brain

[quote] AOC voted Pelosi.

Poor trolls. AOC fucks with their narrative time and time again.

As of 2:06pm ET, Trump is fucked.

I am quivering, vibrating with excitement. Maryyyy!!!!!!

AOC announced she would vote for Pelosi days ago, dipshit

What's the difference between AOC and HRC? AOC actually got into the office she ran for.

Cocaine Mitch McTurtle strutting about, vibrating his turkey wattle, as if he just snapped, chewed, and swallowed a plump beatle.

😂 lol

[quote]as if he just snapped, chewed, and swallowed a plump beatle.

Which one’s the plump one?

R112, AOC won in 2018. HRC was not running in 2018. HRC won U.S. Senate election before in New York.

Then why were there gasps in the chamber, cunt @ r111 ?

Not to mention AOC didn't have to deal with gerrymandering, vote theft, collusion, Russian interference... etc. But you know, let's just continue to ignore all that and create our own alternate reality where none of that happened

Because you’re not the only idiot, r117

GO NANCY!

Days ago? We knew weeks ago that AOC was voting for her.

R118

R115

I always thought Ringo packed the biggest “beetle”.

^^^^^^^

These threads are boring. I know it’s one hysterical obsessed queen doing it, probably 60 years old in a rent controlled apartment in the W Village with a tiny white poodle with a rhinestone collar.

[quote] Days ago? We knew weeks ago that AOC was voting for her.

Don't tell that to the trolls. They work so very hard to make AOC look like she's going to destroy the Dems and that it serves them right for letting someone like her join their ranks.

Hillary attended a diner honoring Nancy Pelosi last night.

In other news, AOC already voting against first Pelosi bill.

[quote] I know it’s one hysterical obsessed queen doing it, probably 60 years old in a rent controlled apartment in the W Village with a tiny white poodle with a rhinestone collar.

If it's one queen, doesn't that make it you, you hysterical obsessed thing, you?

Any "news" relating to AOC or any of the progressives trying to "undermine" Pelosi or the Dem party needs to be taken with a huge grain of salt. Yesterday there was a push on the Part 71 thread to spread the word that the progressive caucus was going to kill Pelosi's paygo rules. Once again, it's all overblown. The dispute is one over strategy, not substance, and it's not that big a dispute anyway since the progressive caucus isn't trying to whip votes against Pelosi and has already accepted her word that she won't let the rule impeded progressive legislation. The real problem is a LAW that is beyond mere House rules. The people voting against Pelosi's rule package are repping the wishes of their deep-blue districts and they're not actually undermining anything. WHICH PELOSI HAS ALWAYS BEEN DOWN FOR. Pelosi is known for telling fellow Dems to turn on her if needed to win.

Remember: major media has a preexisting narrative about Dems that it pushes regardless of reality. Dems are always losing, weak, in crisis or infighting. You NEVER get this kind of obsessive CRISIS! coverage when some tea party idiots from deep red districts sandbag popular bipartisan deals. McConnell does it all the time and gets begrudging praise for his brilliant "leadership."

Who are these fuckers who keep up this talk about the new idiot in the house? Let her do her thing and let us ignore the ta Truman child. We have very important work to do.

R129 speaks the truth.

There is no reason to go on and on about the child having a tantrum...we can ignore her. We have enough votes.

[quote] There is no reason to go on and on about the child having a tantrum...we can ignore her. We have enough votes.

And yet you are contributing to it. And attempting to bait people with your language. Not going to work Boris.

Huge implications:

"This is big and underrated. There has never -- never! -- been a House Democratic majority without a powerful bloc of southern conservatives. And now there is."

Unable to post for two days now.

R135, And we care...why?

The whole AOC is an idiot/child/etc. narrative is wingnut trolling. She's green (in terms of experience as well as her politics) but she's not stupid. She has media savvy and good instincts. That will carry her as she learns what she needs to know.

GOP men who can't do math (Ryan), who think the internet is a series of tubes (Stevens), and who don't understand female anatomy (pretty much all of them) are heralded as "policy wonks," head committees on science and technology, and are taken seriously about their feelings on abortion and rape. AOC, even with her few gaffes and mistakes, is a fucking genius by comparison.

AOC will crash and burn, just like Avenatti. Of course she wants to split the democratic vote. That's what Bernie and Stein knowingly and deliberately did in 2016.

Those deranged AOC hatemonger trolls get immediately on my ignore list.

Pelosi has been speaker for HOURS now. Why hasn’t she impeached Trump yet?!? What’s taking so long?!?

Can we refocus please...we are taking the bait and being divided. Let's focus!

I am happy to block R139!

R138

My post don't show up but a half hour later, there they are? It's kind of annoying because I will end up posting the same thing twice.

When the House passes a bill to get the government started, will the Senate pass that bill or will they cave to the batshit crazy, lowlife president?

Tony Bennett in the House!

Among the guests in the House gallery for @NancyPelosi : Tony Bennett Mickey Hart of the Grateful Dead Tim Gunn

McConnell already said hes rejecting the bill r144.....

Tim Gunn? Aw, that warms my little, gay heart.

Where's the press/pundits and their agita over McConnell DIVIDING HIS PARTY for refusing to reintroduce a funding bill that first passed with 100% bipartisan support?

Oh, right, he's just being strategic.

Buckle up bitches! Trump is giving a press conference!

Reminder: Pelosi was AOC before AOC.

"A showdown over the House majority leader's post today has Democrats bitterly divided only a week after their party took control of Congress and has prompted numerous complaints that Speaker-designate Nancy Pelosi (Calif.) and her allies are using strong-arm tactics and threats to try to elect Rep. John P. Murtha (Pa.) to the job.

Murtha, 74, a former Marine who was among the first on Capitol Hill to call for a U.S. troop withdrawal from Iraq, may have hurt his own chances Tuesday night when he derided the Democrats' ethics and lobbying package before saying he will push for its passage anyway out of deference to Pelosi. His statement, at a gathering of conservative "Blue Dog" Democrats, was cited by backers of his rival, Rep. Steny H. Hoyer (Md.), as further proof that Murtha's controversial ethics record disqualifies him to lead the party in a new political era."

Trump is surrounded by skinheads! Holy crap. He's crying out to his base.

And MSNBC moved off of it. CNN still broadcasting. I'm sure he's throwing bombs to try and capture the news cycle.

Of course, R152. Nancy was getting all the media attention today, so Trump had to do something to get the spotlight back on his needy self. This was a hastily arranged and called press conference -- though it wasn't really a press conference, because neither Trump nor Sanders took any questions.

Tom Nichols: This is like a casting call for the next Lex Luthor.

Reactions from around the world to Trump's presser yesterday, courtesy of Daniel Dale:

"Afghans blast Trump's praise of the Soviet invasion."

"Indians outraged, mystified by Trump's Afghan library taunt."

"Israeli official 'in shock' as Trump says Iran 'can do what they want' in Syria."

So if the HoR passes a budget and McTurtle brings it to the floor and they pass it, Trump can veto..is there any chance that we could get a veto proof majority to open the government? What say you?

[quote]I'm sure he's throwing bombs to try and capture the news cycle.

Now I imagine Trump being Donkey Kong throwing barrells and Nancy jumping over them swiftly.

Do you think Trump is itchin' to hold another of his rallies? He must be *dying* without the attention.

The news shows fell for his bullshit again. Why do they always turnip to listen to his lies. If I were the president of one of the networks, I would wise up and tell my people to stop showing up.

What is Drumpf's incentive for ending the shutdown? If he ends it now how will he ever get the longest, bestest, shut down in the history of the US? He HAS to at least beat 16 days so he can one up Obummer!

Everytime I hope and believe the Repugs will do what's right, they never do. Republicans never did care about our government or care about workers. They really never, ever cared about workers.

Bad news for Donald, as one domino falls:

Sen. Cory Gardner (R-Colo.), who faces a potentially tough re-election in 2020, says Congress should re-open the federal government, even without a deal on funding President Trump’s border wall.

Gardner is the first Senate Republican to call for ending the partial shutdown even without a deal on President Trump’s demand for $5 billion to fund a border wall.

“I think we should pass a continuing resolution to get the government back open. The Senate has done it last Congress, we should do it again today,” he said.

The Secret Service are working for free so, hopefully he will have another of his Nazi rallies and maybe a miracle will happen?

He ran into my barrel. He ran into my barrel ten times.

R155, they have it if GOP members stick to their votes before Trump's must-have-wall tantrum.

Do these threads ever include any intelligent discussion of the Mueller investigation? For that matter, do they ever include intelligent discussion of anything? Or on-topic, Mueller-related discussion of whatever quality?

Why don't you read some of them r165 and find out for yourself?

You obviously haven't read any of them if you have to ask R165. Check out some of the threads when there was heavy Mueller activity in the courts and press.

And when there isn't we keep them alive with other Trump-fail discussion. Because we know there's lots more to come.

Yes, R165, when we're not waiting for the next round of indictments. There are plenty of potential posters lurking who don't actively participate but passively monitor. We know who the trolls be.

R165

You’re joking, right?

Type this in the search bar: First Charges Filed in Mueller Investigation (10/27/17) This thread is part 1 of 72

Absolutely valuable/ educational information.

Now get going!

R113 Hilarious! However I don't get the "cocaine Mitch" reference; please enlighten me!

[quote]Why don't you read some of them [R165] and find out for yourself?

I read all of this one and was deeply unimpressed and sorry for the time I wasted. But my question was sincere. If people think previous Mueller threads were actually worthwhile, and not just a lot of silly bickering and people creaming themselves over the supposed cleverness of the thread titles, I may take the trouble to go back and browse some of them.

So... you're unimpressed with a less-than-a-day-old Part SEVENTY TWO of a thread series about the Mueller investigation that started on a day with little to no publicized Mueller activity. And have to ask whether it might be worth browsing any of the other ones.

You don't seem too sharp, R171. Either those prior SEVENTY ONE threads must have something of substance for this topic to keep going so long, or... the people contributing to them are just keeping "silly bickering and people creaming themselves" alive. So why would you ask those very same people if the other threads were worth your time?

Don't feed the troll. This one comes back and says the same thing each time.

Yup this same troll always enters these threads, says they're boring, makes the same comment about the titles and clears its cookies and starts over.

Obviously a very concerned little troll we have.

If Pelosi knew that their were enough votes in the senate for impeachment, she would bring the vote tomorrow. She's waiting for more ammunition from oversight and from Mueller, If there's enough overwhelming evidence, some of the repubs in the senate may think about jumping off the titanic.

Svetlana is missing a sock. колики (koliki).

These threads are fun to read and appreciated.

did anyone catch on Rachel last night that Roberts asked for the briefs regarding that mystery subpoena Mueller issued and that the company has been fighting?

Apparently, Roberts asked for those briefs on Sunday.

Think they will take it up? Or just let the lower courts ruling stand?

What are the odds this remains secret?

Bless you R168

A reminder on my one inside scrap of information for any newbies, the WH CFO was the vp of finance for IDT (technology to mask where phone calls originate) a decade ago. He made many trips to Russia where he was involved in the sale of their Russian holdings to Russian oligarch Vekelsberg’s (sp?) company Renova in a deal brokered by Deutsche bank. In between among other things a “non-traditional” loan company in Queens.

How’d he get that job?

Rick Wilson: Trump spends his mornings "hoovering rails of Adderall and rage-tweeting"

Pres Bone Spurs did not seem to have a good day today.

Ooh! filed on 12/19, but with a deadline for response on 1/11. Seems that La Pelosi and committee chairs have been busy, and that crowding the platform today with children was for a reason--bitch does not like the child separations.

These are the kinds of things that would be getting media airtime if Trump wasn't doing everything except pole dancing to capture headlines.

The Russian trolls have a new target AOC. I block each and every one of them. Easy to spot you, Boris!

R156 should have been numbered r420

[quote] R83: Have Trump’s comments about India’s contribution to Afghanistan been in the news there? It seems a minor thing but I imagine comments like his create further aminosity between nations.

It was a minor thing like the above that led Saddam Hussain to think that the US would not interfere if Iraq invaded Kuwait. Turns out, it did matter.

Words matter. Tweets, too!

R112, Excuse me?

R158, They can't beet him at the Presser game. Of course, the reporters could cause a rhubarb, but that would cast asparagus on their profession.

In that Oval Office press event, Trump occasionally pointed across the table to make a point. I think he was pointing at a television set, as if to reference something he heard from some Fox “expert”.

What r177 asked.

What motivates Chief Justice Roberts to reach down, only a couple of days before Christmas, into the mass of cases which await a decision on certiorari, to pluck the one where an unnnamed bank (Deutsche Bank is the best guess) is asking to be exempt from a Office of Special Counsel subpoena?

Four rulings from both US District courts and US Court of Appeals denied the requests of this bank.

Well? Hmmm?

These threads remind me of crazy Laofalang from the old ATKOL boards, off meds and going off the liberal deep end. Hysterical.

And you, r189, remind me of the of the phrase "whistling past the graveyard."

I feel safe again. We made to January third and we have both Pelosi and Mueller.

R175: If Pelosi knew that their were enough votes in the senate for impeachment, she would bring the vote tomorrow. She's waiting for more ammunition from oversight and from Mueller, If there's enough overwhelming evidence, some of the repubs in the senate may think about jumping off the titanic.

I mostly agree but think Nancy will wait for the Mueller report because, if she acted before then, a lot of people will call it a coup. There has to be a revelation to the public of the high crimes committed by Trump, with he kind of evidence that most people will find convincing. Once she has more of the Public behind her, she will act.

I agree, she needs to wait for Mueller's report. I just hope trump stays alive long enough to be held accountable.

The only person who seems hysterical is you r189. Do you think we can't see you for what you are? Of course you are hysterical, you see your criminal heroes are going to be indicted and it upsets you. Most of us recognize the truth.

The thing is, Republicans have shown themselves for what they really are. Only the worst humans will support them now.

Trump will live a long life...he is filth and filth just goes on and on. He should go to prison but who will send him there.

Did Justice Roberts break the law, did he do a little grafting because Putin ask him too.

R189 's history shows its really bothered.

Its tactics don't even work but that's all it's got.

It's worried.

[quote]What motivates Chief Justice Roberts to reach down, only a couple of days before Christmas, into the mass of cases which await a decision on certiorari, to pluck the one where an unnnamed bank (Deutsche Bank is the best guess) is asking to be exempt from a Office of Special Counsel subpoena?

Here's some analysis of that question:

Merci

Next goal: get Republican senators to vote for resuming the government.

Thank You, r198.

From the article at R198:

So, from the D.C. Circuit's decision we learned that a foreign government was actively involved in blocking Mueller’s investigation. That fact is intriguing enough. In the ordinary course, that should have been the end of it. The state-owned Corporation filed an appeal with the Supreme Court, which receives roughly 7,000 petitions a year but acts in fewer than 200 of them. There was unanimity below — all four judges (the District Court judge and the three Circuit Court judges) had agreed that the Corporation and Country A’s legal claims of sovereign immunity and of contrary foreign law were without merit. There was little reason for judicial watchers to expect anything beyond a quiet return to the grand jury and further proceedings there. We headed off for the holidays.

And then came Roberts’ surprise Sunday decision. He is the “circuit justice” for the D.C. Circuit, meaning he is the justice assigned to receive emergency and other petitions arising from that circuit. Under Supreme Court rules, the circuit justice may act without consulting his or her colleagues to dispose of routine rulings. So, we should not read too much into the fact that it is the chief justice in particular who acted here.

But we can read a good deal into his decision to intervene at all. Although every judge below agreed there was ultimately no merit to the Corporation’s legal claims, Roberts evidently harbors some doubt. Something in the Corporation’s papers caught his attention. So rather than consigning this appeal to the discard pile with thousands of others, he has blocked the lower courts’ decisions until he can receive the government’s briefs defending those decisions. Those papers must be filed no later than New Year’s Eve. Once he receives the full briefing, he can reject the Corporation’s appeal or he can advance the matter to the full court for consideration.

Until then, we can only wonder at the remarkable circumstance that the chief justice of the United States has personally intervened, at the request of a foreign government through its corporate entity, in Mueller’s investigation. Only two days before, court observers noted that in a high-profile asylum decision, Roberts had sided with his four liberal colleagues against the Trump administration. Many observers took that as evidence that Roberts was carefully seeking to preserve the court’s institutional neutrality, integrity and balance.

What are we to make of his pre-Christmas intervention on behalf of Country A and the Corporation, and against Mueller’s office? We may know soon. Mueller’s office filed its submission early, on Friday evening. We’ll keep our eyes glued to the docket.

I still had to see republican, professional liars on CNN today. It isn't fair, they just tell one lie after another and when the commentater tries to correct them with the facts, they just talk over the pundit.

Gowdy: "I will not be on the ballot ever again"

So will we ever get the answers to the mysteries surrounding Gowdy? Like what is the real reason he left politics, kompromat? And what the hell was going on with his hair?

I believe he is a traitor to his country. I hope he will go to prison.

Apart from Adam Schiff's restrained glee of being in charge, the best part of the day was watching Kevin McCarthy have to escort Pelosi to the Speaker's rostrum.

Girls, girls. You're all cunts.

In legal news today one of Trump's tax attorneys was indicted today for extortion.

Did he post that sad sack picture on his farewell tweet, himself?

Did he borrow Trump’s tiniest Christmas Eve violin, too🎻 ?

R209, here, referring to TreyTrey

If Trump relents on the demand for the wall, it will end his Presidency.

So declares Miss Lindsey, mad as a wet hen.

Oh, how I wish that were true, r211.

R211 As if the Dems investigating his corrupt finance and administration wouldn't end his presidency! And hopefully, it will destroy the GOP as well.

I saw one Republican today, insisting that Trump should not have to show his tax returns, if he didn't want to. Poor little Trump, big bad Democrats trying too get their hands on his tax returns.

R214 Remind the dim-witted Republican that their dear leader agreed to show his tax returns during the campaign...

Did someone post somewhere in these threads that there was a belief that Bone Spurs was trying to keep the shutdown going because it somehow benefited him in preventing the Mueller investigation from going anywhere, i.e, it was buying him more time?

I heard that on Mueller, she wrote, r216.

Interesting theory but I doubt fat Donnie thinks that strategically.

Regarding Justice Roberts intervention in the secret case....Some of you, reporters included, are way over thinking this.

1. Roberts did not out of the blue decide to intervene in the case. He is the Justice that oversees the DC Circuit.

2. The mystery corporation lost the last round at the Circuit and THEY APPEALED TO THE SC. It is standard procedure.

3. Roberts will either let the Circuit decision stand, or he will refer the matter for the full court.

R217 do you remember how specifically how it supposedly benefited him?

The truth is, Trump does not care about our democracy and he has never, ever cared about other human bee gas. He will allow his three adult children to tak7er he rapp, rather than tell the truth. Trump cares nothing about government workers.

Nancy’s got great tits

R221 is right. She does! I’ve been staring at them all day.

She had those boobs fixed. I mean 5 kids? That ruins your boobs.

Nancy works out. Or something. She wears those five inch stiletto heels too. My Ma is 67 and she can't wear heels anymore. Scared she'll fall. Betcha Nancy gets vitamin B 12 shots.

Nancy was moving at a pretty fast clip with her grandkids today too. She can certainly move for a 78 year old.

Interesting. I recall a time right before an indictment when all of a sudden these threads were filled with random posts that were "sort of" on topic but actually nonsense. It became clear it was an obvious tactic to make the poster look like they were regular contributors staying on topic but in reality it was just a way to fill up the thread with distractions and nonsense.

Regulars in here should go ahead and take a minute to check the previous posts of some of those posting here and see how "random" they are - especially for posters who have no histories posting in any of these threads.

Every breath you take Every move you make Every bond you break Every step you take She’ll be watching you!

[quote] Did someone post somewhere in these threads that there was a belief that Bone Spurs was trying to keep the shutdown going because it somehow benefited him in preventing the Mueller investigation from going anywhere, i.e, it was buying him more time?

I think that you may have it a bit confused. The shutdown will not stop the criminal cases from going forward. Mueller's office is exempt (as are almost all federal criminal prosecutors). The shutdown has, however, stopped any of the Trump civil lawsuits from going forward (like the Emoluments Clause case) because the Justice Department's civil attorneys are furloughed and not exempt from the shutdown.

Thank you, R220.

“Human bee gas” is my new favorite phrase.

Rachel tonight is a must-watch. The Poland-Belarus story is chilling. Of all things Trump brought up early in the administration, he brings up an obscure story made up by Russia.

Creepy as fuck.

Rachel also noted that Trump also said the people of Montenegro are unusually aggressive and could start WW3. He said it on Fox News.

Montenegro. Of all countries.

Where the fuck did that come from?

Russia.

It was inspiring to see the new Democratic congress sworn in today. It gives me hope. Truly the work of the people and not a bunch of hateful, jaded billionaires inciting the feral instincts of dummies.

It was a sight for sore eyes and ears seeing and hearing the Dems officially take the House.

r198, you are wrong. Read the last thread for what the company could be. Deutsche Bank does not meet the criteria.

Today was a great day. Gives me a lot of hope.

My God we've had dark times the last two years. This was a wonderful breather.

So now Trump has pushed out three Russian propaganda stories:

1] Poland and Balarus.

2] Montenegro and WW3

3] Russian invasion of Afghanistan history rewrite.

Three stories he could have only gotten from Putin.

THANK YOU RACHEL!

I LOVE these thread!! 14 hours ago, it had 51 posts, now it's 235. It was a BIG day for Dems, so lots to cover. Thanks again OP, these threads helps so much!

R236, totally creepy, right? He talks with Putin often.

I think Dotard and Putin do nightly circle jerks.

yes, it was a big day but we are not out of the woods yet. We won this battle but we need to prepare for the coming war in 2020.

Also of note, there are several governors up for election this year. Specifically the carpetbagger Bevins in KY.

If Grimes (I think is her name - Allison) or Brashears runs against him, the other will probably run against turtle. So keep an eye on that one.

This morning this thread had numerous trolls. We should pay attention to when they’re more active, I also agree with the earlier poster that it “felt” like that prior to other big indictments. We can all feel this looming, impending dread (and hope) at what’s coming. I am thankful Nancy is in charge right now. This will be EPIC.

I really want all the Democrats to remember how happy they are about Pelosi today when she does something we don't all agree with or like too much. At some point she's going to have to do something like that and I don't want the fair weather Dems bitching and moaning and ranting and raving. We have to stand together right now. Pelosi always has a plan or a good reason for what she does. We just have to trust her and have the Dems' backs because the alternative is pure, fucking evil.

R242, when they do that again, and they will, just type in all caps, “THIS IS WHY WE CAN’T HAVE NICE THIIIIIIINGS!” I scream that at my kids all the time.

Public broadcaster ARD television said earlier on Friday that hackers had posted personal data from hundreds of German politicians from major parties, including credit card details and mobile phone numbers.

Deutsche Welle reported that all political parties have been targeted apart from the far right AfD party.

Turtles do eat beetles.

What do you think - any indictments today?

R195, Roy Cohn was the filthiest of the filthy and he didn’t live to be an old man. Thanks to AIDS. Trump will die relatively soon due to his horrendous diet and not doing exercise.

Didn’t Trump elbow the President of Montenegro at some gathering in 2017? Funny he brings up Montenegro as a hot spot.

Is AOC foreign plant? If she would criticize republicans at least once, then I would feel better.

So far she has exclusively attacked democrats. And when they are most vulnerable. We need democrats that are taking the fight to repugs. Not fellow dems.

When AOC gets invited to one of Jane Sander's four lake houses for a slumber party, she'll finally understand the real merits of socialist activism.

"Thank you, [R220]. “Human bee gas” is my new favorite phrase."

During the last thread, I mentioned how I felt that trolls had changed tactics because posters were oddly thanking people I had blocked.

It's happening in this thread, too: see quote of thanks above. It's the repitition of thanks that piques my curiosity. Said "human bee gas" doesn't appear in my blocked posts so it was out of there as quickly as it was posted.

I only blocks obvious Russian (read Trump defenders), concern or we're all doomed trolls.

R249 & 248 -

Soooooooo bored with your AOC nonsense.

Seriously - what is your problem? I tend to think you’re just super misogynist & the thought of a young, savvy, attractive non-white success story in the corridors of power is somehow your worst nightmare.

Or - you’re just some troll and it’s after the afternoon tea break now - it’s around 4.15pm in Moscow! - and today’s instructions are to smear her - till your next target is posted. In which case - please just fuck off back to the samovar.

If you’re just some racist, misogynist POS however - just fuck off in general. You’re full of shit and profoundly irritating.

Haha, r229! I was just about to post the same thing!

"Human bee gas!" It will kill us all!

The emoluments case despite being a civil case is actually really important imho because;

1) There is settled law that the President can be the subject of civil prosecution.

2) It’s very specifically an activity a sitting President is not allowed to as per the constitution. As such a finding against could lay the groundwork for impeachment charges in a way that would be appealing to people who take the view that the President is generally above the law.

Yup. Like I said r252, it's the repitition that piques my curiosity.

We need to build a wall to keep the illegal killer bees from crossing our border. They bring crime, drugs, some of them are rapists. And, of course, they threaten us with their deadly bee gas.

Human bee gas & Beatles

The joys of smartphone predictive spelling.

R251 has stated her boundaries.

"Tow" the party line, R89? You have the Rep you deserve, all right.

R230 & R231... yes it is creepy.

The potus is spreading disinformation on behalf of Putin’s propaganda campaign.

What secrets has Trump betrayed to Putin?

What if Putin does manage to engineer sophisticated weaponry that can overpower us?

I never liked Reagan but at least I felt safe from the fucking ruskies under him.

R259, that is so chilling. It makes the Manchurian Candidate seem quaint in comparison. Fuck this reality.

Bump for Friday updates!

I totally agree with you. However, some of the "regulars" here are the ones filling up the threads with several useless posts of them masturbating on Nancy Pelosi's breasts. Talk about "'sort of on topic' but actually nonsense."

Of course, the main one jacking off while looking at and thinking about Nancy's tits is the same guy who violently intones: "I've been here for over 20 years, bitch! I've been here since Day One, bitch!"

New Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib: "We're gonna impeach the motherfucker"

Hello, R250.

I'm R229, thought the Autocorrect was funny and said so. Period. Currently I don't have anyone blocked, and made that post from my cell phone while reading in bed. It was late, it struck me as funny, and I posted with good intention and in good faith.

I also witnessed the AOC trolls talking to themselves yesterday, and appreciate your efforts to keep these boards clean. I also try and do my part. In fact yesterday when we were swirling a bit I posted at R181 to try and get somewhat back on topic.

So no harm, no foul--but you are mistaken if you think I'm engaging in the troll tactics you have loosely attached to me and my post.

It is my fervent hope that when Donald leaves us he will be oined at the hip to Vladimir Putin in the 9th circle of Hell. I keep thinking about the fact that the two of them obviously talk regularly and I have to laugh. Can you imagine Vlad, now one of the wealthiest men in the world, with all that power, and he is consigned to working his main asset, Donald, by playing psychotherapist to him on the regular. Constant exposure to Donald's thoughts and ruminations might drive Putin insane. He may even get suicided. LOL!

Yeah, I forgot to mention that when you check some of the past posts of these trolls, look at the pattern. We talked long ago that one of the new troll tactics was to make themselves look like, "regulars." They post slightly on topic, a few comments here and there that look like they're participating in the conversation -- but if you actually read their posts, they have nothing to do with any actual topic being discussed. Generic posts that quickly devolve into talking about breasts and trolling.

The Democrats would do well to remember the Republican Patron Saint-Ronnie Reagan- also said "Mr. Gorbachev Tear down this wall!" But, of course, it's Donnie "Two Scoops" party now. Unbelievably about 98 % worse than Reagan.

I say "Mr. Trump you motherfucker. No wall for you, you insane POS"

I would imagine the Trumps have squirreled away a good deal of money into Switzerland and the Caymans. In case they have to escape.

Trump mentions the i-word in a tweet this morning:

How do you impeach a president who has won perhaps the greatest election of all time, done nothing wrong (no Collusion with Russia, it was the Dems that Colluded), had the most successful first two years of any president, and is the most popular Republican in party history 93%?

Former RNC chairman Michael Steele in response:

It’s what a master manipulator does. If the impeachment trigger gets pulled we’ll question its legitimacy. After all, impeachment is another partisan act weaponized by Democrats to undermine his “success”. In short: he’s reminding us what to think about the idea of impeaching him

I love you all dearly (as much as you can love anonymous posters on a website), I’m proud of all the work done on these threads. I’ve contributed bits and pieces, but I’ve taken far far more than I could ever give. Thank you to each of you!!!

If I wasn’t on DL, I never would have understood the tactics being used online to break us apart. I’m very very hopeful, there could even be a break in all this TODAY.

Regarding the post up there sent by the House with the 1/11 deadline, anyone know if there are any others like that out there, requests for information submitted during December with deadlines in Jan? I am very curious about that, because *that* is when the subpoenas start. Remember how much Nancy emphasized transparency yesterday? She’s going to let the People know what their government is up to under Trump, let the People take it all in. Hallelujah!

R267, the Dems will not give a penny for that retarded wall. They WOULD give huge funds designated for border security — just can’t be for a wall.

R247, currently, Montenegro is polling at a paltry 1.7% in our July poll, “Who is the Enemy of the People?”

Jeeze, R255, some of them, I assume, are good bees.

I wonder how these gassy bees' honey taste like? Could be the latest foodie trend and push manuka honey off the top spot.

R273, they taste like farts. Bee farts. Capish?

R204, Trey has some set of those big ole' birthin' hips on him. Never knew that since all I ever saw was his pinhead.

GOOD reminder

Well, the wall may keep out the Chupacabra.

CNN: "Some in GOP Break With Trump Over Shutdown's Fate." Won't that just kill him knowing that there's still a Republican majority in the Senate, but it's not a majority for him?

The man is a fool, no one believed anything he has pushed that came directly from Putin. Putin feels like he has a perfect spokesman but the truth is, he chose a clown.

R263 Hear this lol

I bet Trump has shared with Mitch the kompromot that the Russians have over Mitch. Occam's Razor.

So poignant, he is.

Pres Bone Spurs defenders, and he himself, believe and have studied the effect of Republican's attacks on Clinton during his presidency. They fully believe all things are equal in the two cases and the more attacks on our "leader" the more it will backfire on Dems. They believe things are exactly equal as if conspiring with a hostile nation and a million other things are equal to a BJ from an intern. So for them, all the negative stories he gets are ok because he will rise like Clinton did and come out of this popular.

They are that insane.

Okay, Miss Cheeto gurl, whatever you say

George Conway has been stunning on Twitter today even as his wife does her usual repulsive spinning and Gish-galloping.

Cheeto in Rose Garden

Jerry Nadler (D-NY), Senate Judiciary chair, says Democrats will publicly release Mueller report.

Lies, lies and more lies.

What is he saying in the Rose Garden?

He's spewing bullshit.

He's talking about the wall.

Now we have a dog whistle.

ok I'm hoping by tonight we get a new investigation bombshell. I'm so thirsty for SOMETHING. The last 2 weeks of holiday shit have slowed the news

More lies he cannot back up or produce hard evidence of his 'claims.'

Now he's saying a wall would benefit "the children"

And "the women"

I want to punch Pence in the face.

Pence looks bored and uncomfortable

Now he wants a steel wall "which will cost more"

[quote]Pence looks bored and uncomfortable

His laxative hasn't kicked in.

Now he's claiming a "former president" told Trump he regrets not building a wall.

Was it Bush Sr or Reagan, from beyond the grave?

Mike Pence stepping up to the mic

Trump said at the meeting with Congress a little while ago that he'll let the shutdown go on for months or even years.

The line about "children" was in direct response to Pelosi surrounding herself with children yesterday and taking her oath in the name of America's children. Yes, he really is just that easy to read.

If the wall is THAT important then why did he sit on his fat ass playing excessive golf and stuffing cheeseburgers in his mouth instead of pressuring his own party in Congress to fund it?

this bullshit will last until President's day at the latest.

Once these fuckers can't reach the IRS or get their refunds, there will be hell to pay.

Trump looks pissed as Pence speaks

Trump is sniffing again. Noticeably.

He needs to be sedated.

remember the original promise that Mexico will pay for the wall!!!!! Funny how repub media and some repubs are OK with the idea that US taxpayers should pay and it should be part of Congress' budget.

He needs to be guillotined.

MSNBC cutting away during Pence!

Good, because if they're not bringing out The Dancing Festers again, I'm not having it.

Some federal employees are working and not being paid, isn't that illegal?

So if he gets this shit, this means I'm going to receive "the best healthcare, and free" and a new, 'high paying job' and clean air and water?

NOT A CENT for that damn monstrosity and that means I'm not paying my taxes if the gov't is still shut down in April, bitch.

The traitor needs a wall built around him. Decorated with some nice steel bars. And would still be too good for him.

Trump looks like a bored toddler as Pence speaks

Looks like?

r319 THAT should be the new talking points- we'll give you a wall alright! A wall made of steele around YOU!

I will not waste time watching one word that filthy liar says.

I still can't believe that a single person can be so full of shit.

He promised Mexico would pay for the wall, now he wants U.S. taxpayers to foot the bill...dems need to use the "term bait and switch" ...he scammed the voters.

He is a con man through and through.

It's so obvious that he is more willing to talk over/down to female reporters.

"Who else to you see out there that has been very fair to us" when deciding on whom to call next.

What a piece of shit.

Who's *this* blonde manager-asker?

He needs to stroke out on live TV. I hate him and his corrupt family. Please let them all die.

I hope the wall is his downfall.

how can this be happening? So many treasonous repukelicans have decimated our country and let a foreign power take over the United States. Sickening.

R342 that's a less covered topic. Trump is ADDICTED to fame and attention. He's so insecure and needy that he doesn't feel important if he's not being talked about. Yes he's a puppet of Putin etc but another major factor in him running for President was the fantasy that he'd be the center of attention 24/7. Now he's got what he wanted. He loves attention and the dumb networks keep giving it to him. We don't need to see him babbling nonsense and insulting people while displaying arrogant ignorance on every topic. He is a sick man who should have gotten psychiatric help decades ago

[quote][R342] that's a less covered topic. Trump is ADDICTED to fame and attention.

I'd hardly call it a "less-covered" topic, but yeah, Trump is a huge attention whore. Right now, I'm sure it's driving him crazy that Nancy Pelosi and the Democratic freshmen in Congress are getting so much attention, so of course he has to put his fat, orange ass on TV.

Oh darling, while most of him is orange his ass most definitely is not.

Think about that for awhile.

Many celebs suffer from this need for attention because they know they're not that intelligent or talented and have lied about their accomplishments. Starting in the 80s is when it became more "acceptable" to be famous for negative reasons which is coincidentally when Trump started being known nationally. Trump and others like him of course prefer positive attention but they'll take negative too as long as it means they're being talked about. People who are happy with themselves and their lives do not act this way.

Her popularity SOARS!

Stunt backfires on Republicans!

He is obviously unconcerned about federal employees not being paid.

MSNBC should run case-study after case-study of federal workers being fucked by shut down. Just how they gave the migrants faces and stories, they need to tell the human stories here, much more in-depth. That will hurt him, just like the immigrant children’s faces crying hurt him.

Show the pain, pictures are stronger than words.

And if a federal worker is a former migrant ...

Mueller grand jury gets 6 month extension

Washington (CNN)Special counsel Robert Mueller's federal grand jury has been extended by six months.

The grand jury, based in Washington, DC, was seated for an 18-month term that began in July 2017 and was set to expire in the coming days. Under federal rules, the court is able to extend a grand jury's term for another six months if it is "in the public interest." House Judiciary chair says Democrats are 'not going to wait for the Mueller report' to investigate Trump House Judiciary chair says Democrats are 'not going to wait for the Mueller report' to investigate Trump Grand jury activity is secret, except following the 23-person group's approval of criminal indictments. Chief Judge Beryl Howell of the DC District Court, who oversees the Mueller grand jury, granted the extension. She does not sit in on its sessions. This story is breaking and will be updated.

George Conway and Kellyanne know the dirt on DJT. Kellyanne is tied to the Mercers. Trump used Junior and Eric to troll George Conway, but they are nitwits not in George's league. George and Kellyanne can say whatever they want, when they want, as long as Kellyanne doesn't attack Trump before the cameras and does her spin and deflection routines. And note, Kellyanne, as a senior advisor, gets lofty, regular paychecks from the government with good benefits. Plus, she is building her exposure for Republican clientele for her polling and consulting business when she leaves her government job. Her speaking fees will shoot up along with a new book deal.

Washington Post:

While federal workers go without pay, senior Trump administration officials are poised to get $10,000 raises

I find their whole act boring and inane, R361. They know the dirt and do nothing for this country because if they did - if they actually DID something about it - they'd be ruined.

if there wasn't a deep state before, there will certainly be one now.

Agreed, R363. Time for those two deadbeats to get another meal ticket.

Pence and Mother are poor AF so you know they’re psyched about the $10K bump.

Those idiots trying to harm AOC are having as hard a time as those fucking losers on Cruz’ campaign when they put those vids and pics of Beto.

Assholes, the whole lot of them.

Exactly r365 (I’m not r363). If KellyAnne actually quit and completely denounced him and confessed her sins — THAT would be something. I’ll always despise her, but at least that would reduce her prison sentence and give creedence to the fact that her boss is a fucking traitor of the highest order. For all her tough talk, bitch doesn’t have the balls.

Honestly can you STFU about AOC. No one cares about her. Others, good socialists like me, are disgusted by her attacks on amazing leftists like Nancy Pelosi at a fragile time and suspect that she, like Stein, is a Russian asset (at best a useful idiot). Time will certainly tell, but the fact that you’ve posted fifteen comments about made-up outrage concerning her (when no one gives a fuck) makes me suspect you’re a Russian troll too trying to drum up fake drama between Pelosi and AOC. No one gives a fuck about AOC and no one should.

Six month Grand Jury extension?

Cue the February trolls.

The grand jury received a six month extension.

I think AOC is a cutie

My God, I was called the February Troll, but I have apologized 10,000 times. Obviously my sources on that were shit!!! I am happy for whatever Mueller does here.

Yes, r372. She's growing on me.

What are the implications of this extension? Can a lawyer chime in? Thanks.

You don't get a six month extension unless you have big heads to roll into those juries.

Okay thanks, R376 — excellent!

Drip drip drip.....

MORE like tick tick, motherfuckers, R378!

Are extensions automatically six months or did he specifically ask for six?

So Congressional investigations are going to get their day in the sun. Will be interesting. Will subpoenas get the job done and who will fight them?

I think the bigger question is how to force them to submit to subpoenas when they refuse — and they will. I’ve heard this mentioned in these threads, but can’t remember. Let’s say, the XXX Committee subpoenas Trump’s tax records. He refuses. Then what happens?

A subpoena is issued by the the Court. If refused, the judge has a couple options, but basically Individual -1 can be compelled to comply, either by fines or jail time. He won't be getting out of handing over his taxes. The Orange Idiot has it on public record that he would show his taxes. Now he doesn't want to. The Judge will ask him why he won't. His answer may indict himself as well!

Trump is really stupid to do all his tweeting and giving his dumb opinions. If you want to do well in court you really don't want written or taped record of anything shady. It's all his own doing and he can't stop himself and he has the worst personal attorney giving bad advice.

R382, I’m talking about House Committees issuing subpoenas, not judges.

R251 R367. You fragile thang.

R369 is giving you good advice.

And R249 and R248 are two different people.

And calling people Russian trolls because they are not obsessed over AOC is quite odd.

DL Fave Louise Mensch thinks that either AOC or Bernie should be the Democratic candidate for President in 2020.

[quote]Let’s say, the XXX Committee subpoenas Trump’s tax records. He refuses. Then what happens?

They won’t be subpoenaed from Trump. They’ll go straight to the IRS. He’ll have to fight the IRS to not have them released.

He won’t win. We will see those fucking tax returns.

Did she really R385? Well, shows why she's a DL fave since AOC isn't constitutionally old enough to run in 2020.

But since when does Mensch know anything?

How many weeks ago did Giuliani say Mueller was wrapping it up in 2 weeks?

[quote] R334: He claims Nancy said "we're not looking to impeach you".

He also has said that Putin called him brilliant. A better translation is that Trump was glowing. Maybe from tanning. But Putin didn’t call him brilliant.

Likewise, Nancy might have just repeated earlier comments that she “is isn’t looking to impeach him”, at this moment, with the existing evidence that she’s seen, and a that she’s waiting for the Mueller report, and that may change things; or maybe, Trump made the whole thing up.

If Trump names Jim Webb as Defense Secretary, Lindsey Graham will not like that. The two had an intense clash in 2007.

We've seen Lindsey showing a hissy-fit at the Kavanaugh hearing.

Webb won't put up with her drama. ,

Nancy Pelosi knows A LOT MORE than she lets on publicly....remember, she one of the Gang of Eight that get top secret security briefings.

I don't see Trump seriously considering Webb. No way Trump is going to bring in someone who won't take his shit. I think the name was floated to rescue Trump from the chaos narrative. "Oh look, he's considering another serious respectable person!"

I had hoped Mueller would be dropping some indictments today. Seems like endless foreplay and edging. I hope we see some orange jumpsuits in the near future. There’s only so much Rachel I can watch.

[quote]And calling people Russian trolls because they are not obsessed over AOC is quite odd.

I do think it's strange that there seems to be an adamant belief that someone who doesn't like AOC must be a troll. On the same hand someone could say that the posts pushing for AOC are troll posts.

I do find it even more interesting when there are claims that anyone saying they don't like AOC is a misogynist and the same people then bash and make up lies about HRC... but that's not misogynistic?

I also meant to say all the posts defending AOC are the ones actually continuing the conversation about AOC more than anyone who has said they dislike her.

[quote]If Trump names Jim Webb as Defense Secretary, Lindsey Graham will not like that.

The guy who wrote MacArthur Park? That’s a curious choice.

As for trolls, I recall DL being deluged with pro-Trump messages before his election, then, there was a noticeable drop off from Trump supporters/trolls immediately afterward.

Reuters -

Trump denies media report he is considering Webb for Pentagon chief

Who is AOC?

damn so the federal courts run out of money by January 11th next Friday! Now I'm wondering if Trump wanting to extend the government shutdown is yet another way to try interfering with the Russia investigation.

R399 Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez

r341, he has a tenuous grasp of reality.

r410 You're both being generous.

Not to change the subject but Nancy has man hands. Trump must be traumatized at the thought of those mitts around his balls. He doesn't stand a chance.

Louise Mensch is an idiot who has never read or understands the U..S. Constitution. AOC is not old enough to run for president (you have to be 35 or older), isn't she only 29 or something?

I wouldn't take my cues about our country from Louise Mensch.

Do not doubt Nancy. At all. She may say some things to him but she absolutely will do that right thing when it comes to impeachment. Shit, she probably knows it won't come to impeachment. His ass will probably be marched out in cuffs! Or resign. She know A LOT!

r404 was in response to r385.

I sleep better at night and feel more safe knowing Pelosi is in charge now.

I know this is just a regrouping of the blue army and we are gearing up for the real battle but I feel more hopeful now than I have in the last 3 years.

Watched the Town Hall interview of Nancy Pelosi by Joy Reid at Trinity Washington University. Truly inspiring. I'm starting to hope. America does not have to be pushed around by billionaires. We own this country, they're trying to steal it and make us all serfs. Not going to happen.

***BREAKING****

Mueller Grand Jury extended for 6 months. This cancels the mid-February deadline. SHIT! We really need to get the impeachment ball going....not to mention get the govt running again.

r412, you're a little late to the party.

The news media must challenge him. There are not two sides to this. There is no threat to our southern border. This needs to be emphasized. It is not a matter of opinion. It is a fact. There are no terrorists flooding our country at this time. The only terrorists are in the fucking White House. Trump and his enablers. IMO he's manufactured this crisis and has been heading down this road for many months. He wants to declare an emergency. That's where this is going. He has been saying this and attempting it for months and months. Jennifer Rubin wrote a column in the Post that made so much sense. She said if only four or five Senators Republicans, told McConnell they would approve nothing, and give him no support until he brought the Budget reauthorization to the floor for a vote, they could force him to do his job. They'd also have enough votes to override a Presidential veto. Trump has demonstrated he is perfectly happy violating the Constitution. He isn't inventing this by himself. He is being guided in this. Advised.He has a natural inclination towards authoritarianism, but he wouldn't have the sense to figure out how to get there. We are in a crisis right now and Pelosi isn't going to get us out by herself. She is a strong leader and she has massive support, but the fucking Republicans in the Senate hold the key right now and they absolutely must step up.

R412 here. OOops, my bad. Well, then maybe they should not allow congress to go home until they hammer out some kind of deal. Lock them in. Dump is getting all the media coverage with his blustering. Dems will earn votes if they can get workers out of this quagmire.

The media consumers should decide with their media consumption. Tell these news media stations why you watch / don't watch them.

If these media station, and other media outlets, are stupid enough to listen to Russian bots and trolls and then find out that nobody watches them anymore ... well, sucks to be them.

The lowlife fucking president needs to come around. That fool is completely insane and he needs to be impeached right away.

R417 I'm there. I agree. Like, NOW.

Make the turd and his dingleberries squirm and suffer dems! ITS A NEW FUCKING ERA NOW.

So, the grand jury has been extended for 6 months. That's too late to help any Republicans who want to primary Trump. I think they would need to announce by June at the latest. How does that change the Republican establishment's game plan?

Well if they let that motherfucker declare an emergency we'll be the ones squirming. He needs to be stopped right now. The crisis they keep claiming is around the corner, has arrived. The whole "If he does X then blah blah blah..." is over. It's here. It's right now.

[quote]I know this is just a regrouping of the blue army and we are gearing up for the real battle but I feel more hopeful now than I have in the last 3 years.

I don't think I'm hopeful, but I am relieved. Things aren't going to get better, but at least they should stop getting worse.

I also think we're much more likely to get an impeachment this time. There was no way they were going to try GWB because they wouldn't get a conviction, but there seem to be enough GOP Senators whose corporate overlords are sick of Trump to get to 67 this time.

Six months is routinely how much a grand jury is extended. It means nothing in terms of where the case is, other than there is at least a short-term need for it to continue its work (e.g., possible additional indictments).

Jeffrey Toobin was on yesterday with Wolf, and they discussed the whole "emergency" thing and he said legally it gets very crazy, that the courts may not be able to do anything to stop him on legal grounds, and honestly, the court would probably rule cautiously on any matter where national security is invoked. I found that very scary. They can't keep waiting until the next worse thing happens. They need to act now. I understand the unions are suing him because workers are being forced to work without pay. I don't know if that goes anywhere, but the fucking government needs to open.

Maria Butina may not want to be a part of a prisoner exchange. If she has cooperated with U.S. judicial authorities as conveyed, she may not want to be interrogated in Moscow; then she disappears.

Butina may ask for political asylum.

[quote]legally it gets very crazy,

It certainly does. I haven't seen anyone discuss yet the fact that the budget funds appropriated to government agencies each year can't be used for some other purpose. I guarantee the Defense Department received no authorizations to build walls. The defense appropriations bill passed in September for the fiscal year we're in right now is a fucking LAW, signed by the Fake President, with specific language about how it the defense budget is to be spent.

TSA workers are all calling in sick now. Blue flu.

Once plane flights are grounded and IRS refunds canceled they'll reopen.

Hey, I know where they can find cheap scab labor! They got all those illegals in NJ just waiting for a new assignment from their 'boss'

I never thought I'd say this, but bless the TSA. If their refusal to work is creating more urgency and necessity for the government to reopen, not to mention the IRS factor, then we'll really have something which trumps (sorry for the pun) a phony national emergency.

I'm making it a point to call in and complain to my Senators, my reps, and the WH. This psycho is holding up the whole country for his own selfish agenda which is not wanted by the majority of the people.

Impeach him for this. It's outrageous.

Dump is again blatantly lying about the border security national "emergency"! His press conference was absolutely nuts!!!

Thank you R431 for doing that; hope others will take a few moments to do the same.

Let us know how calling the White House goes. It is closed. Its budget is one of the ones that has not been passed.

I say EVERY DAY the House should send the Senate the same fucking bill the Senate approved 100-0 two weeks ago . . . with one difference.

Each day, there should be $1 million less appropriated in the General Services bill for the White House operations.

The daily bill going to the Senate will put the pressure on the remaining half-dozen Republican Senators in their home states that need to jump ship. Then send it to Individual-1, let him veto, and then Congress will override the veto because by then 70% of voters will have had sufficient of this circus.

I like your style r433

Thanks, R427 it has been mentioned on MSNBC, but it hasn't been highlighted nearly enough. There is also something else to consider. Since the moneys have been appropriated and the spending bills signed into law, it is illegal to block these funds and prevent programs already approved by Congress from being implemented. There have been other instances when a POTUS has refused to spend money allocated for something he disagreed with and he has been taken to court by 3rd parties with an interest. I guess we need one of our government experts to discuss this intelligently, but we have to be more aggressive with this turd. We have to stop him now. And honestly all his bullshit in the rose garden runs completely counter to the facts. The main thing is that we have to have a sense of urgency about this. And I think pressuring some of the GOP Senators to withhold their votes from McConnell until he puts this to a vote is the way to go. We need to find out which Senators are waivering and pressure them....even Susan Collins.... I know. But I think at this point we need to stop running to the WH to negotiate. He is loving that spectacle and it makes us look like supplicants. I think we need to isolate him and shift attention to McConnell and the Senate. THose fuckers passed a bill just before Christmas with 90 votes. Bi-partisan. Pelosi got the House to vote...again...bi-partisan... on the same fucking legislation yesterday and the Senate rejects it? Bullshit. Fuck Trump. Let's go after McConnell by robbing him of his power to deliver votes.

R433 Yes! Get your message out there!

OK, a bit of levity... I nearly pissed myself. Trump speech slowed.

I've said it before, but I'm just waiting for him to flat out say, "Look, brown people are scary, amiright?" You know he's thinking it and you know that 30 percent base agrees.

He sounds drunk, R437

R437 Wow that seals it: Dotard really is just a dry drunk nutter.

He can't just "declare a national emergency."

[quote]An Act to terminate certain authorities with respect to national emergencies still in effect, and to provide for orderly implementation and termination of future national emergencies.

The National Emergencies Act (Pub.L. 94–412, 90 Stat. 1255, enacted September 14, 1976, codified at 50 U.S.C. § 1601-1651) is a United States federal law passed to stop open-ended states of national emergency and formalize the power of Congress to provide certain checks and balances on the emergency powers of the President.

The Act of Congress imposes certain procedural formalities on the President when invoking such powers. The perceived need for the law arose from the scope and number of laws granting special powers to the executive in times of national emergency.

A federal judge has ruled that the $350 million misconduct lawsuit, filed by Trump ally Jerome Corsi against Robert Mueller, will move forward.

On Thursday, Judge Richard Leon ordered Corsi's case against Mueller to be randomly assigned to another judge. Corsi, a longtime associate of former Trump campaign advisor Roger Stone, is suing Mueller, the Justice Department, and others, for $350m over prosecutorial misconduct, leaking confidential information to press, and unconstitutional surveillance.

R445 However, Senior U.S. District Judge Ellen Segal Huevelle, who was appointed by former President Clinton, will now oversee the case, according to a filing made early Thursday evening.

[quote] R415: [R412] here. OOops, my bad. Well, then maybe they should not allow congress to go home until they hammer out some kind of deal. Lock them in

I think it went about this:

1. Trump says he would sign a particular bill on the topic.

2. The House passes the bill.

3. The Senate passes the bill by voice vote, meaning is was so o erwhelming that a recorded vote was not necessary.

4. Trump is ridiculed by Limbaugh and Colter

5. Trump renegs on signing the bill, and demands funding for his wall.

So, Congress did pass a bill, OP. It was Trump who changed his mind and took “the mantle”. As Nancy said, you can’t negotiate with someone with whom you can’t even agree on the most basic, fundamental things. Likewise, Trump is a “deal maker” who can’t take “yes” for an answer. If an agreement is too quickly made, or his opponent is too happy with it, he concludes that he gave away too much, and therefore wants to renegotiate.

I haven’t read the Art of the Deal, so I don’t know if he addressed this, but one negating tactic it to agree to something, and then after the other side expends energy getting stake holders to support the agreement; you then make new demands. You keep at this until the other side gets exhausted and agrees to the newer demands just to get it over with.

Hitler used this negotiating ploy when negotiating over Czechoslovakia. He also prohibited any smoking while negotiating. The Czech leader was a smoker, and after a long session without a cigarette, he made concessions to surrender Czech lands.

[quote]V.P. Mike Pence and team just left the White House. Briefed me on their meeting with the Schumer/Pelosi representatives. Not much headway made today. Second meeting set for tomorrow. After so many decades, must finally and permanently fix the problems on the Southern Border!

ICE and Trump are out of control otherwise our border is just fine .

Trump won't be at the meetings, he will be watching TV and eating McDonald's.

The most ignorant posters on the thread as Deplorable and they are most certainly deplorable.

You are cruel r453 😁

[Quote] A couple days ago, MSNBC's @maddow presented compelling preliminary evidence that Trump gets intelligence and propaganda from Kremlin sources. Tonight I'll add to her report in a significant way by discussing the meeting pictured below. I hope you'll read on and retweet.

Of course Putin tells him what to think and when to repeat it too Reporters. It is so obvious, why hasn't everyone figured that out?

We are close two figuring it out, R461, but obviously to close too the problem two see clearly.

I think it's incredibly important that Maddow and others are exposing this now. And I'd like more mainstream media coverage of it. The fact that he discusses foreign policy and spouts Putin's line at cabinet meetings rallies and in interviews is very important. It builds the case. And for fuck's sake we now have Trump personally directing the Platform committee at the convention to put the Ukraine policy change into the platform document.That is so important.It's one thing for us to speculate and surmise but this is actual proof. This connect all the dots.

[QUOTE] I should know this, but are there any off-season elections in 2019? We might be able to scare up a few more senators willing to break away from the sinking S.S. Trump.

After black Mike Espy managed 46% in Mississippi, I'm not so willing to write off white incumbent Dem Doug Jones in Alabama as a certain loss next year.

Their Senate map is not looking as promising as it did on election night last year.

What is going to happen to Mitch?

The problem with these political card readers is that I find they use the cards, however they may come out, as shoehorned "validation" of their own opinions.

trumpolini is spending more and more time with the classic " people feel uncertain or insecure" body language of having his arms crossed. it is not new, but it just happens a whole lot more often. this photo also shows his multiple chins, or lack of a chins in all their glory.

Jesus, in the photo at R467 he looks like a toddler that's trying to shit on his parents bed for not giving him a popsicle.

I think the next two years are really going to swing on what the media decides to do. They will shape the narrative. Right now, their ratings are coming from the excitement of the new Dems taking over the House and Trump being fucking evil. As 2020 approaches, we'll see if there's a subtle shift toward:

"Looks like the Dems aren't being very effective."

"The Dems are being obstructionist."

"Trump seems to have mellowed a bit."

"Where's Mueller's report, anyway?"

"We've been attacked, so must stand behind the president."

They've done it before and I'm not sure the American electorate is any smarter now than they were with Shrub.

Maddow needs to expose the $$$ that are going to big business, Russian oligarchs and the kickbacks to Trump for the wall!! It is obvious that Trump stands to gain monetarily for the wall. Investigative reporters need to find out who/what is behind the wall contract that Trump is so desperate to build....

Since Pelosi is a brilliant strategist when it comes to working the multiple factions in the party, I wouldn't put it past her to have the plan be to let the younger, progressive members mouth off and say the things the people want to hear while the older, experienced legislators gently chastise them publicly but support them 100% behind the scenes. It's the best of both worlds. The attacks get out there but the Dems still get to be the party of serious grown-ups doing the nation's business.

Pelosi's answer about that Congresswoman saying "We are going to impeach that motherfucker!" was basically, "Oh, those kids today! Now, let's get back to fixing this mess." It was perfect and played great in the media on both sides. Brilliant.

Why doesn’t CBS News or ABC news ever follow up on Rachel’s reporting? The evening news is getting as soft as anything else. They need to do some work.

Donald Trump is less popular than Nancy Pelosi for the first time during his presidency.

On Miss Hucksbee

there are governorship IP for election this year.

Most importantly In Kentucky. There are two Dems considering running. Whoever runs against bevins will leave the other to run against turtle. So keep an eye open.

Airline Pilots clap back.

[quote]It is obvious that Trump stands to gain monetarily for the wall.

Job One is probably to find out what the fuck was the "contract" he "signed" over the Christmas break. Given the past record of this circus, he probably revealed his hand right there without even thinking about it, and those who have the resources and mandate to find out seem to be doing jack shit.

[quote]Pelosi's answer about that Congresswoman saying "We are going to impeach that motherfucker!" was basically, "Oh, those kids today! Now, let's get back to fixing this mess." It was perfect and played great in the media on both sides. Brilliant.

That's not really what she said, R471.

Forgive me, R477, but what contract did he sign over the Xmas break? Did I blink and miss something?

I wonder what would happen if Schumer and Pelosi simply announced that Mr. Trump doesn't really understand how to negotiate, the need to re open our government is urgent, so we are not going to continue to waste time with Mr. Trump. We will instead focus our attention on working with the members of the United States Senate to do our job and try to get this resolved. Isolate that motherfucker. Stop going to the White House to try to reason with him. The rules do not apply to Trump. So isolate him and deal him out of the plan. There are some members of the GOP Senate who are ready to peel off and vote. Work on that. Pressure them and force the media to focus on McConnell. Don't let McConnell escape responsibility. Sideline Trump. Show him things will get done without him.

R479 I think that R477 is referring to the photo the WH released of PPG pretending to sign a blank piece of paper with a capped pen.

R480 McConnell refuses to bring a budget propsosal to the Senate floor unless Trump endorses it.

Both chambers could agree on something now. Approve it. If Trump vetos it, they should try to override it.

No, I think he signed something else to either extend or augment the contractors who are "housing" the kids who are asylum seekers. There are something like 14,000 kids living in tents in Texas and contractors run those. In fact there are a lot of sub contractors working with the DHS. There has been no oversight of any of the contractors in any of the departments and that is what the House committees are going to get busy on. There is no way they won't find corruption. I think the Evangelicals and a lot of his MAGAs are getting contracts.

Pelosi is already there R480.

She’s planning to pass bills opening each of the agencies (which the Senate previously voted to do) one-by-one, starting with Treasury and IRS.

If the Republican Senate now refuses to pass unless they get Dotard’s wall, let them tell constituents they are withholding IRS refunds from the public in order to satisfy Trump’s whim.

[quote]It is obvious that Trump stands to gain monetarily for the wall.

Nah, its not about money, its about feeding his own ego, The wall is perfect for him--he can wear a hardhat, sit on a bulldozer, pretend to read blueprints, and generally walk around like a big swinging dick while telling everyone this is nothing compared to the massive projects he's handled before.

What if all these bills fail, 484. If McConnell is implacable, refuses to work with her, and simply ignores her attempts, Pelosi will be the one the media focuses on to say, " it's not working. Pelosi can't get it done." It's perverse and wrong, but that may be part of Trump's strategy. Make her look ineffective. That's why, IMO the Democrats in Congress need to outsmart the Republicans and shift the focus to McConnell. Because the Conservative media, McConnell, Trump etc are going to try to put this on her. We know that's ridiculous, but Trump's base will eat it up. I'm angry and I want the Democrats to kick his ass and MCConnell's ass. So I hope they go after McConnell. He's been almost invisible the past few days. News media hardly mentions him. He said, "Hey, I have no role in this" and then did a quick fade. I know. I'm sure Pelosi and Schumer have a strategy, but I worry.

R485: Sure...It is always about the money.

Pelosi WILL pass an IRS Tax Refund bill out of the House.

After that the ball will be in McConnell’s court

Exactly, R488. The House will do their job. She will be effective in the House for sure. But the Media is setting expectations so high that when that shit gets fucked by McConnell, both McConnell and Trump will peddle the bullshit that it was not a good bill, Pelosi can't get it right, etc. and right now the Media is just hoping for some red meat trying to hype real or imaginary "divisions" among Democratic House members. Nancy is brilliant. She is ready for it. But WE need to do whatever we can to keep the focus on McConnell. He absolutely cannot get away with blocking things from coming to a vote.

Pelosi is a cat... McConnell is a rat. Let nature run its course.

[quote] McConnell and Trump will peddle the bullshit that it was not a good bill, Pelosi can't get it right, etc.

She is passing the exact same bills that the Rethuglican controlled House and Senate passed last year -- minus the money for the stupid, fucking wall. She is just doing it one-by-one to get the government open again. It is difficult to see her losing the media / public relations battle in this case. This is a smart approach, and the Repukes in the Senate will cave. Most of them believe the wall is an absurd waste of money. And, even if they don't they can read the polls -- this is a very unpopular idea.

am I stupid? why didn't Trump get his wall when he had full control of the branches ??

r492 The Senate filibuster still applies all votes except court confirmations. When the minority party decides to filibuster, it takes 60 Senators to pass a bill. Last year, McConnell needed nine or ten Democratic Senators to vote to override the filibuster and include Trump's wall funding in the budget. No way that was going to happen.

Both branches do not want it, R492, and the Senate dares not choose the 'nuclear' option knowing it will be used against them when the tables eventually turn. Down deep they know it's a Trump boondoggle. Unneeded, unnecessary and stupid and unpopular in some marginal states like Arizona and Texas where private property rights are sacred. Ranchers have cross-borderlands they graze. It's anti-environmental, cruel to migrating animals and would require the destruction of many sensitive and unique ecosystems.

It's not a simple build. They'll have to use eminent domain and adhere to state water regulations. I wouldn't trust this asshole with a crayon, let alone something this complicated.

No wall. Increase, modify and expand border facilities and patrols. Create little areas where you funnel them through and catch illegals. You want to come in? Use the gate we've already provided and do the appropriate paperwork to seek asylum. What we've now done is create those who are trying to do this as a 'criminal' class and the enemy. We've created fear around teenagers, children, women and yes, big bad hombres fleeing the horrible conditions of their country; conditions that in some cases we helped create.

We want an end to the carnage this man has created. Get rid of him, now.

Wonder if there is some kind of kickback involved with the proposed "wall" contracts(s)? This administration and it's cabinet need to be watched on everything that is financially related.

[quote]need to be watched on everything that is financially related.

I'm on it.

Holy fuck. He's nuts.

Schiff will release interview transcripts to Mueller. You in danger, gurls.

Was Mueller unable to get those transcripts before?

r499 When the Republicans controlled the House, they refused to release the transcripts of interviews held in closed session to Mueller.

thus us why fat Donnie is unhinged and fixated on drawing g attention to his stupid shut down.

The paperwork is flying behind the scenes and he thinks that democrats can only focus on one thing at a time like him. He is unable to fathom that while Pelosi is writing legislation, salwell, waters, Cummings and schiff are putting together other paperwork to give Mueller what he needs, pull bank records, submit subpoenas, pull people in for questioning and go after his staff's many ethics violations.

He thinks that he can suck all the air out of the room and make nothing else happen.

He is pathetic, weak and scared out of his feeble mind.

Yes, yes, yes, R494!!!!

In other words, "impeach the motherfucker" NOW.

Let me know when they construct a gallows on the Mall.

R503, open a gofundme account. Advertise for an artist to making a fuctional replica. Extra funds could be applied towards pitchforks and torches. Install it, and wait.

A guillotine would be so festive.

Guillotine? This is a witch hunt, remember? Respect the old ways, and start digging a fire pit.

R497 He makes "state of emergency" sound like a coup attempt.

W&W for R506 and R490

With Tiki-torches R506, turn their own iconography against them!

[Quote] She's schooling him.

This entire uproar currently happening is all about trump and his complete and incompetent idiocy. There is no need for a wall, his insistence upon building one is based on blind ignorance. He's created an untenable situation by piling up poor refugees at the border, removing children from their families, and creating a humanitarian crisis.

He closed the border for nothing except he likes to be the center of attention even when it's a crisis of his own making. It doesn't matter what it's about, he glories in being the center of attention all day and every day, no matter who gets hurt or how much money it costs. He is a very sick individual and a traitor to this country. He is wasting our time and resources. He belongs in jail. I am sick to death of his ugly face, along with McConnell's and other Senate Republicans who are putting self before the welfare of this country. What a disgraceful time we're living through. Enough!

I really, really need Treason of the Bitch to get here quickly.

In a nutshell.....

r511......read this thread.

I like how Pelosi asked Trump to pray about it. Surely she knows that he doesn’t pry.

Has the news started to use the word, "lied," when referencing anything Bone Spurs said? Once they start doing that that's when we'll know the tide has turned.

Please Dana Bash, don't be interviewing Rudy Giuliani, Lindsey Graham, Rand Paul, and Kellyanne Conway. You need to confront and challenge these people, not act star-struck.

R516, MSNBC does so more freely now, but not always.

Is there any indication at all that dear Ivanka could be tied to anything that would get her indicted or was she somehow smart enough to keep herself removed from most of it?

Something I heard recently on my local news which I thought was interesting:

They were talking about Mitt Romney's OP ED piece and how he was "tough" on Bone Spurs and how he was "unfit" for the position. They went on to say essentially, "but take that with a grain of salt as Romney has had issues in the past of going back and forth from criticizing to praising Bone Spurs depending on the time of day."

R519, there is a recently-opened criminal probe into how money was cycled in and out of the dodgy Trump Inauguration Committee; Ivanka has been implicated in that.

Thanks, R521, I forgot about that.

Has been two years since inauguration...and nothing will ever be done. I have had it...the prick in the White House is tearing our country apart and all we do is talk, talk, talk. Our end is near and Mueller is dotting his I s.

It took R523 that long to start it's trolling. Nice.

r18 r143 r144 r158 r160 r162 r194 r195 r196 r203 r206 r214 r223 r284 r456 r457 r458 r461 r523

The concern troll has been a busy little beaver.

Is he Russian? The grammar and spelling errors say yes. There must be multiple trolls. Some of the posts make sense. Some of them are just word salad.

Exactly, R525. R523 is the perfect example of what I've been pointing out... how the trolls slowly try to pepper the threads as though their active participants but none of it really ever makes sense. It slowly starts posting "doubt" posts and yes.. the wording and grammar are pieced together poorly.

[quote]Has the news started to use the word, "lied," when referencing anything Bone Spurs said? Once they start doing that that's when we'll know the tide has turned.

One of the anchor guys on CNN mornings has taken was referring to "Donald Trump and his Co-President," Sean Hannity last week.

I'm sure he's been warned to stop.

Do you know which anchor that is, R527?

I keep looking to the media to see when any shifts in their presentation of him and his crime family. I think that's the biggest indicator of when the Rethugs will finally turn on him.

Does anyone know what it looked like with Nixon? When did the media finally turn on him?

R529, I believe the public turned during the televised Watergate hearings. There is s tread on this but the search engine ducks on this site so I can't point you to it.

The search engine here ducks!

The search engine here does duck! So do all the trolls.

I initially (a few months ago) couldn’t decide if I liked Jeffries because I just couldn’t get a good read on him. But after hearing his fly “we’re down with NDP” speech the other day, I finally get him and adore his ass. He seems tough as hell, would love to learn more about him.

What was it about him R534 that gave you pause?

I don't know much about Jeffries.

I just couldn’t get a feel for his real personality because he was so serious. Now that I saw him in a different mood, I am now quite impressed by him.

Daddy! Daddy! I'm being an ass on Twitter once again, Daddy; just like you! Will you notice me now, Daddy? Please??

R540 he looks as mentally ill as his father.

And a face only a mother could love (even after reconstructive surgery).

I'm seeing the wedding ring of course, but in spite of that I'd let Rep. Jeffries do all kinds of nasty, nasty things to me.

Who do I have to pray to in order for Paul Ryan to get an indictment. I don't want him in the clear.

Add the Senatrice and Melty Face McConnell to that list.

Who else?

R543, yes, he’d be hardcore in bed, no doubt.

I'm still waiting for Nunes to get his.

R543 get in line!!!!

Is Nunes still on the HIC? And can they get rid of him?

R548 you get seconds!

On the subject of people who think they're in the clear but still need to get indicted - let's not forget Chaffetz.

Chaffetz!!!! He needs a good nick-name.

Yes, that weasel Nunes is still on the Intelligence Committee. I don't think there's any way for Democrats to kick him off is there?

I go back and forth on who I want them to take down next. Pence would be great.

Do we know any more about him lawyering up?

I feel like he would be the first person to throw Bone Spurs under the bus to save himself and get a Mueller Special, ie, recommendation for no jail time for cooperating fully.

R554 absolutely Pence would do that. I can't think of anyone stupid enough that wouldn't throw Dotard under the bus at this point --- well aside from Jr.

I don't know about anyone else but I've long thought that if anyone was ratting Drumpf out it would be Pence and Kushner. Something tells me if ANYONE was already working to save their own asses it'd be those two.

r554....Pence was THE VERY FIRST to lawyer up.....that should tell you something.

I like to think that Kushner is compelled to sell everyone out because jail time is too terrifying for him --- for no other reason than he can't dream of spending that much time away from his Dermatologist.

Yes, R557 I think that is a point often overlooked by everyone.

And didn't he Lawyer up for seemingly no reason?

Let's please also add Hannity to the list of people we want to see go down. He wasn't working with Cohen on Real Estate.

r559.....He lawyered up as soon as Mueller was appointed.

Yes, Mueller was appointed in May 2017 and Pence lawyered up in June 2017.

Interesting. So he got a Lawyer to respond to requests from the Special Counsel. Is there any way that that can seem like something one would normally do? Is it overreaching to assume he did so because he's afraid of what he'll get implicated in?

I literally want to watch these fuckers get picked off, one at a time. You know, like at a carnival shooting gallery. Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Also noticed that R523 hasn't bothered to come back.

In what order, R565?

The one thing that I look forward to is that I know once there is going to be a moment when they indict one person and whoever that person is is going to start a chain reaction and they're all going to fall like dominos. I have no doubt about that. Once that happens it'll all happen so quickly that we'll be starting new threads everyday.

[quote]With Tiki-torches [R506], turn their own iconography against them!

Does it say something that I read that as Wiki Torches (as in Wikileaks)?

R568 from your lips...

We just need to hang tight. Someone on here has very good sources that Mueller is going to turn everything in in February!!!

You're twisted, R571. I like you.

Thanks for the laugh R571.

I somehow missed this. Collins breaks with McConnell... of course how long will it take her to turn back around and side with him?

Collins is as steadfast as Flake is.

This was 10 years ago, but Hakeem Jeffries (new chair of the House Democratic Caucus) used to come to some of my work events in his district when he was a state Assemblyman.

He's a really smart guy, and I think cares more about people and making things better, more than most politicians. He's more street fighter than you might think, which I hope bodes well for this new role in our new environment. I'm really pleased he's where he is now.

Tish James was at those events too when she was on the city council, and they got along well. Who knew then that they would both end up playing a role in taking back the country from perennial joke Donald Trump as President!

He's much better looking in person; his eyes are beautiful and pretty intensely green. I thought he had a gym body under those suits.

Good tweet from Ted Lieu:

Thank California for: Pelosi, Schiff, Waters, and Lieu.

Not so much for Nunes.

Link to new thread for when this one maxes out:

What is this fuckery? Trump has decided not to withdraw from Syria. I guess Hannity and some of his other butt buddies told him it was a bad idea.

R580 no surprise. Just more of the same - throw everyone in chaos to distract about everything else.

More like no surprise he has no idea what the fuck he's doing and anyone who gets in his ear last is what he ends up doing.

Link to new thread for when this one maxes out:

So will the House Intelligence Committee call them all back and make them testify without those privileges?

Also could they call in the Keebler Elf now?

What would the point be in calling him in, R587? Just to hear him shout over and over that he does not recall?

Oh and add Sessions to the list of people I want skewered.

Link to new thread for when this one maxes out:

Sessions is on my list too. As well as Ghouliani.

I want Conway to go down too.

R592 I'm sure she already does. Has to be a reason she's still there!

But Ill bet Conway will try to pull something with her husband --- and say that she was the one who was actually saving America!

I agree with that actually. I've always believed there's some weird thing with the Conways like they're trying to use George as a cover for KellyAnne after everything falls apart.
