Donald Trump has persuaded Republicans to doubt the intelligence on Russia's hacking
Donald Trump this week finally came around (kind of) to the intelligence community's conclusion that Russia engaged in hacking in an attempt to influence the 2016 U.S.

Trump had paid staffers at his press conference cheer and clap for him. He still thinks he's campaigning. It's just so damned unseemly. - George Takei

Republicans Had 8 Years To Come Up With An Obamacare Replacement

Paul Ryan Is Trying To Spin Himself Out Of This Self-Imposed Chaos
Speaker Paul Ryan is urging the GOP-controlled House to pass a 'critical first step toward delivering relief' from President Barack Obama's signature health care law.

Meanwhile, in our nation’s capital, our elected officials had a late night of work. After seven hours of debating, they voted to approve a resolution that would rid the country eventually of Obamacare. Can you imagine, the senators finally worked until 1:30 in the morning, and it was for this? How would Congress like it if we all met in the middle of the night and voted to take THEIR healthcare away? -Jimmy Kimmel

The FBI Needs To Be Investigated, Namely Comey, And A New Election Must Be Held.

If true, this salacious dossier on Trump was gathered by a very experienced intel man, Christopher Steele, hired by Republicans opposed to Trump before he won the nomination. Let that sink in.

Below are the last two paragraphs of an article by the Guardian.

...In the US presidential campaign Steele was initially hired by a Washington DC political research firm, to investigate Trump on behalf of Republicans opposed to his candidacy. He was kept on the assignment after Trump won the nomination and his information was circulated to Democratic party figures and members of the media, Reuters said.
Eventually he began dealing with the FBI regarding the dossier, sources told Reuters, but he became frustrated at the bureau’s slow progress and cut off contact. The material then circulated in political and media circles before ultimately making its way into the public domain.

So the FBI Director, James Comey, knowing of this dossier decided to intervene in the presidential campaign days before the election inferring that Hillary's emails were once again a problem.

How many more dots need to be connected that there was direct interference by the FBI and Russia all in favor of Trump?

UPDATE: Justice Dept is going to "review" the FBI

I am taking the day off. My friends have come by to paint the inside of my house. 😊

Peace and love to all.
