I had someone I know tell me she thinks Muller is the one who charges were filed for and the rest of the democrats are going to all go down like dominoes. I asked, with all sincerity since I thought she was saying the wrong name by mistake, “You think Muller is filing charges against himself?” “Oh, he’s being investigated too. He’s one of the most corrupt. I think he’s getting arrested and that one at the airport with Bill Clinton.” I’m not joking. This exchange happed. It really happened. Rest assured, a conversation with this person is no longer possible.

You should have played along, and asked who is investigating Muller, & where did she see the proof?

I bet she loves FOX news, & just believes what they all say lol
 
What is taking Trump so long to start the war he wants.... Just get it over with

It needs to be ongoing and not already massively unpopular during the next Presidential election or it does him no good.
 
Man calls his son a Nazi, son then kills him. So tragic. I would assume one would have to be mentally ill to kill their own parents. But this goes to show how dangerous the Alt-Right rhetoric is and Conspiracy Theorists like Alex Jones.

It's sad, but it's kind of the natural evolution (or intelligent design might be the appropriate term) of the 'conservative' media organization for the past decades. People who spend much time at all listening to folks like Limbaugh / Beck / Hannity etc. have been essentially trained through sheer repetition to consider liberals, non-Americans, non-whites, non-Christians, non-homosexuals, etc. as something less than human - and if you do that long enough, you start to think they're not human and if it's time to round them up and throw them across the border or into an oven, it's just the same as fumigating a house to kill termites.

It always, sadly, reminds me of Asimov's works. I don't remember if it was late in the Foundation sequels or in a separate Robot book, but essentially there was a story about how they were able to get robots to violate the Three Laws and to kill people by redefining what was considered human, so that the targets would not be considered human and therefore okay to kill.

John Boehner unleashes.....

https://www.politico.com/magazine/s...lican-party-retirement-profile-feature-215741

Breaking the ice, I mention some news of the day—that Trey Gowdy appears likely to become chairman of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee. The previous chairman, Jason Chaffetz, had abruptly announced his resignation from Congress; House conservatives had hoped that Jim Jordan, a senior member on the committee, might pursue the chairmanship. Boehner grins. “Gowdy—that’s my guy, even though he doesn’t know how to dress,” he says. Then Boehner leans back in his chair. “f*** Jordan. f*** Chaffetz. They’re both a******s.”

And away we go.

Boehner’s beef with Chaffetz, who would later join Fox News as a paid contributor, is not personal—just that he’s a “total phony” who possessed legislative talent but focused mostly on self-promotion. “With Chaffetz,” Boehner says, “it’s always about Chaffetz.”

His problems with Jordan, the founding chairman of the ultraconservative House Freedom Caucus, run much deeper. To Boehner and his allies, Jordan was the antagonist in the story of his speakership—an embodiment of the brinkmanship and betrayal that roiled the House Republican majority and made Boehner’s life miserable. Although he would tell me in later conversations that he holds no grudges against anyone, today Boehner unloads on his fellow Ohioan. “Jordan was a terrorist as a legislator going back to his days in the Ohio House and Senate,” Boehner says. “A terrorist. A legislative terrorist.”

It's not at all about what you do, it's what uniform you wear while doing it. And while I'm personally against desecrating the flag, I don't think I'd have a problem if anyone went the full Lewinski route on that dumpster.
 
What do Paul Manafort, Roger Stone and Roger Ailes have in common?

They all worked closely with the guy that gave you the Republican's "Southern Strategy":



and it's still working

And the brain dead sheeple will be posting it all over Facebook. The "uranium deal" is literally nothing. Since they realized they couldn't tie Killary to it, they go to go after the black man.

Campaign official suggested 'low level' staff should go to Russia

Papadopoulos lied to FBI agents "about the timing, extent and nature of his relationships and interactions with certain foreign nationals whom he understood to have close connections with senior Russian government officials," according to the complaint. Mueller signed a 14-page statement regarding Papadopoulos' offense, which lays out of the facts of the case.

In May, Papadopoulos sent an email to a "high-ranking campaign official" with the subject line "Request from Russia to meet Mr. Trump." The email said Russian officials were eager to meet with the candidate and had been reaching out.

In a footnote, the FBI statement notes that the email suggesting a Russia visit was forwarded from one campaign official to another. "We need someone to communicate that DT is not doing these trips. It should be someone low level in the campaign so as not to send any signal," the email read.

The FBI statement does not explain to whom the campaign officials were concerned about sending signals.
In the affidavit connected to the case, there is a reference to a July 2016 email Papadopoulos sent to a foreign contact regarding setting up a meeting with what appears to be Manafort (described in the email as his "national chairman"). Papadopoulos writes the meeting has been "approved from our side."​
 
My dad just texted me that hillary and obama are next for the uranium deal and that Manafort stuff happened before he joined trump so it doesn't matter. smh there's just no reaching out to these people. :sad:

31 times presidential approval was lower than Trump's (and 256 times it wasn't)

President Donald Trump just finished his ninth month in office and the reviews are in -- and they're not good.

The President's approval rating during his third quarter in the White House was just 36.9% in daily Gallup tracking polling. That means Trump's number marks the lowest third-quarter approval in seven decades of surveys.

To make matters worse, it was also lower than 9 in 10 presidential quarters measured back to 1945. In fact, in the history of modern polling, this low of an approval rating has never been seen so early in a president's tenure.

Out of the 288 presidential quarters measured by Gallup over more than half a century, only 31 of them have been worse than Trump's latest — putting it in just the 11th percentile. Keep scrolling for an interactive list of all 288 approval ratings.​
