All Hat No Cattle: Fired FBI Director, James Comey Writes A Book

Lordy, Tickets to James Comey's Book Tour Are Going for $850
James Comey's upcoming book, for which he received a $2 million advance, achieved best-seller status a month before its release. If that wasn't a clear enough indication that people are eager to hear what the former FBI director has to say, then this surely is: Tickets for his book tour are going for as much ...

New documents show that former Trump deputy campaign chairman Rick Gates communicated with a former Russian spy before the election, who "has ties to a Russian intelligence service and had such ties in 2016." And I'm guessing this spy is still on Putin's good side because, as of show time, no one had served him a nerve gas burrito.- Stephen Colbert

Trump Slaps Russian Sanctions In The Face
President Donald Trump has formally invited Russian President Vladimir Putin to a meeting at the White House, despite the continued furor over Russia’s alleged poisoning of an ex-Russian spy in the United Kingdom.

When Trump said neither he nor anyone in his campaign had anything to do with Russians, it must have slipped his mind that his campaign manager and his deputy campaign manager were in communication with a Russian intelligence agent. I guess it’s just another mulligan. - Rob Reiner

Woman who grabs her own pussy while singing the National Anthem is praised by Trump, an admitted pussy grabber.

Makes sense to me.

Roseanne doing what 99% of women wouldn't do.

The whole Stormy deal is a squalid side show. But watching her very sharp, audacious, media-savvy hot dog of a lawyer joyfully torment Trump-world, it occurs to me that he’s giving them a taste of their own medicine. - David Axelrod

Newspeak Has Arrived At Sinclair Broadcasting
Sinclair Broadcast Group's corporate mandates are exacerbating tensions between the company's local stations and its management.
Journalists in local US markets are chafing at the company's requirements, including a new promotional campaign that echoes President Donald Trump's anti-media rhetoric.
The promos, first reported by CNNMoney last month, went viral over the weekend after Deadspin edited dozens of them together to show how anchors across the country were told to read the same script.

Hi Lisa.
Thoughts -- Trump was the manipulator of the media in NYC for decades. Not anymore. Since he can't control the media he calls whatever he wants FAKE NEWS! Even my fav news station CNN, has these right wing *ss kissers on. IMHO Trump is setting up the public to not believe the Mueller investigation. Trump's base already believes anything he dribbles from his mouth. Comey is coming out with a book. What?
I live in NYC and watched this idiot for decades. He's unpredictable!!! And crazy!!!
Thank you for the humor relief. It helps a lot. Happy Easter!!!
Meg

Thanks for writing.

I believe that reporters and the FBI, all law enforcement for that matter, have much in common. Both search for the facts of a case. It sickens me how both professions have been besmirched. But facts are facts and even Comey realized that he had nothing on Hillary, so what did he do? He interfered in the 2016 election, not once, but twice. That had never been done before. IMHO Comey hurt the reputation of the FBI with that act. And now he's coming out with a book? Ay yi yi.

I often wonder what Robert Mueller thought of what Comey did during the election.

I agree, Meg, CNN needs to raise the bar on hiring right wing analysts, if that is even possible.

Keep the faith. Mueller has already begun kicking the money changers (launderers) out of the White House.

With Fox as state run TV and Rosanne spouting insane conspiracy theories, truth in journalism is fighting gale force headwinds. Democracy will not survive if ignorance becomes currency. - Rob Reiner

Costa Rica also elected as vice president,
Epsy Campbell Barr who will be the first female,

Costa Rica Elected A Pro-Gay Rights President Instead Of An Evangelical DoDo Bird On Easter Sunday!
The centre-left’s Carlos Alvarado Quesada decisively defeated a conservative Protestant singer in Costa Rica’s presidential runoff election on Sunday by promising to allow gay marriage, protecting the country’s reputation for tolerance.
