All Hat No Cattle: I for one welcome our new Turnip Overlords

Study: NY Times, Wash. Post quote more than twice as many Republicans as Democrats in political coverage
Throughout May and June, two of the nation’s leading newspapers, The New York Times and The Washington Post, quoted Republicans at more than twice the rate of Democrats in their political news coverage.
In an analysis of the papers’ news and political coverage during May and June, Media Matters found that the Times quoted 1,466 Republicans and 611 Democrats, a ratio of approximately 2.4 Republicans for every Democrat. The Post quoted 1,403 Republicans and 615 Democrats, for a ratio of approximately 2.3 Republicans for every Democrat.

It was the same with the coverage of Bill Clinton during his presidency. Tim Russert led the way during those days.

Bill Clinton almost lost his job as POTUS for lying about an affair.
Trump has lied about several affairs, and Michael Cohen had a tape that proves it.
Dear GOP: Practice what you impeach. - OhNoSheTwint

The World Is A Safer Place Without ~~Saddam~~ Trump

I think the Russians have infected our government to a far greater degree than anyone suspected. Come to think of it, they're kinda like syphilis: by the time the first symptoms appear, the disease is already well established. - Rick Wise

White House Staffers Are Depressed
White House staffers who initially planned to leave their jobs after the midterm elections are considering getting out sooner because of President Donald Trump’s performance during a press conference with Vladimir Putin Monday, and his fumbled attempts to clean up his remarks ever since.

What if we're looking at it wrong? What if it isn't a case of Republicans refusing to stand up to Putin? What if we've already been invaded and conquered and Putin has installed Trump and GOP as the ruling power, meaning from here on out, democracy is an illusion.- Sally Albright

Republican Shenanigans

If goofy Michael Cohen has incriminatory recordings of Donald Trump, just imagine what cagey Russians have. -Mrs. Betty Bowers

I don't get it. Are Republicans in Congress so scared to lose an election that they will go along with a traitor? - Bette Midler

Don Jr.'s New Gal Quits Fox To Stump A Trump

According to ABC News, Guilfoyle is expected to join America First, a pro-Trump Super PAC.

Senator Strongarm
The Senate GOP leader is vowing to squeeze Democrats with a vote on Brett Kavanaugh right before the midterms if they don’t back down on their demand for documents.

When I got started as a reporter covering the police beat in Houston, a grizzled homicide detective once told me - "I don't believe in coincidences". Seems like apt words of caution for what we're witnessing today. - Dan Rather

The National Football League has announced that they’re putting a hold on their previously announced new policy that would penalize players for taking a knee during the national anthem. The league released a joint statement Thursday with the NFL Players Association (NFLPA), saying “no new rules relating to the anthem will be issued or enforced for the next several weeks while these confidential discussions are ongoing.”

I guess Trump didn’t realize when you keep attacking the FBI they will attack back. - irishygirl

I'd like to remind all of America's remaining allies that the GOP officially refuses to increase voting security, thereby giving a green light for any of you to attack our election systems should you desire an America not run by lying treasonous illiterates. - John Fugelsang
