I understand the impulse to blame Putin, fake news or any number of other culprits for electing Trump. But the fact is, before the general election even happened, millions of primary voters decided that an idiotic reality show host with a glaring personality disorder was a worthy nominee for the White House. The buck stops there. #Sad - Andy Borowitz

Drip drip drip

Podesta: 'Something is deeply broken at the FBI’
A top aide to Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton said Thursday the FBI’s response to Russian meddling in the U.S. presidential election shows the agency is “deeply broken.”
“The more we learn about the Russian plot to sabotage Hillary Clinton’s campaign and elect Donald Trump, and the failure of the FBI to adequately respond, the more shocking it gets,”...


I find it interesting that the CIA confirmed the Russians hacked the election while the FBI is still standing around stepping on its ________.

Huma Abedin, the longtime aide to Hillary Clinton, asked a U.S. judge on Wednesday to allow her to review a search warrant the FBI used to gain access to emails related to Clinton's private server shortly before the Nov. 8 presidential election...In their letter, Abedin's lawyers said she was unable to evaluate the issue as neither she nor Weiner was provided the warrant itself, despite federal rules requiring authorities to provide a warrant to a person whose property was taken.
