Dictators for life get to be honored with massive military parades. He wants a military parade SO BADLY! Moreover he deserves not just one military honors parade but many many because HE would run into a school being shot up with military assault weapons, even without a bubble gun, and YOU would not! So orange soda jerk doesn't need any steenkin' elections, just declaration that he's the One, the Only One, and forever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheKitttenGuard Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 As thoroughly repugnant I find Jeff Sessions and have no sympathy when the Stable Genius tweets insults, I respect that he mainly utterly ignore them and continues with his work. It mostly work I do not want to be done but he ignores the covfefe and continue on with his work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fez Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 There hasn't been much news about New York State working in conjunction with/parallel to Mueller's investigation, but it looks like that may be changing. No presidential pardons for state-brought charges. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fragile Bird Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 3 hours ago, Tywin et al. said: @Fragile Bird The fact that Jared is Jewish is not what makes this story interesting. It’s the fact that Jared’s family is really close to Netanyahu. So close that he once slept in Jared’s bed. It makes me wonder if Bibi knows that Jared is an easy mark. https://forward.com/fast-forward/362898/when-bibi-slept-in-jared-kushners-bed/ Ty, I think I knew that, somewhere in the back of my mind. Which is why it felt so weird, so particularly cold, to hear the story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No presidential pardons for state-brought charges. I am glad to see some movement on this front, state charges are definitely a key piece of leverage for the special counsel's investigation.

Fragile Bird Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 I am watching this live broadcast at the White House on gun control. and while Trump is nuts about expanding the number of places where there are going to be guns available, if he gets this passed he's gonna save a lot of Republicans butts in the mid-term election, I think. But my God, I always shudder when I go to the US thinking about who has a gun near me, I'm just sickened at the thought of there being no gun free zones in the US. Your whole fucking country awash in even more guns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe Kalbear and I were discussing if Trump was merely narcissistic or if he suffered from narcissistic personality disorder, and you weighed in, though I can’t remember your opinion, and I took it a step further and said that he also showed signs of ADD/ADHD, sadism and the Dunning-Kruger effect. Trump is absolutely a collage of personality defects IMO. Why don't we keep things simple and just refer to Trump as the lying idiot. Doesn't that encompass his many personality faults?

Red Tiger Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 Everytime I see a picture of Jared Kushner, I wish to punch him in the face. It's not even that I dislike him, I barely know anything about him (well besides being Trump's advisor and son-in-law), but he has one of those faces.

Maithanet Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 Politico: Hope Hicks is resigning. Quote White House communications director Hope Hicks, one of President Donald Trump's longest-serving aides, plans to resign, press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said Wednesday. Her announcement came a day after she declined to answer many questions during an appearance before House Russia investigators. Uhh...that's surprising.

Shryke Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 Also, leaks from people Mueller has been interviewing suggest he's working over people trying to get statements from them about when Trump know of the hacking of the DNC by the Russians. https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/mueller-asking-what-trump-knew-about-hacked-emails-n851941 The answer is almost certainly "before the public did because Trump was communicating with Russians to trade for dirty on Clinton".

It's going to be a feeding frenzy in January as every Committee Chair is out for scalps. Is it far fetched to think she might be trying to get while the getting is good?

There's been consistent chatter since the Porter scandal that Trump felt she demonstrated disloyalty. That seems to be Trump's bugaboo. I imagine her resignation has more to do with that than testifying to Congress, which you don't get out of by resigning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
