Well, Pepe, I'm glad you asked me that. Bill Clinton was 20 years ago. If Bill Clinton were in office today, his own party would be forcing him to resign in disgrace. Times have changed, Pepe, and maybe it's time for you to change along with them. - Jeff Tiedrich

This Is Wrong. Right?
Chief Justice John Roberts stepped in Saturday to halt a federal judge’s order that a conservative politico group said threatened to discourage so-called independent expenditures by broadening the circumstances in which anonymous donors could be exposed...It is not clear whether Roberts’ order is a short-term measure intended to allow further consideration of the issue by the justices, or whether it will remain in place through this fall's midterm elections.

From Mueller, With Love

Manafort to cooperate with Mueller as part of plea deal
The plea deal calls for a cap on prison time and dismisses deadlocked charges from an earlier trial pending cooperation with the Mueller probe.

The lack of empathy from Republicans is not shocking, it is who they are.







Trump Increases Cruelty To Children On A Record Breaking Scale
The number of migrant children being detained by the government has reached its highest level ever, according to a report by The New York Times. Data obtained by the Times showed that 12,800 children were detained in federal custody this month, compared to 2,400 children detained in May 2017. Federal shelters housing migrant children have remained filled at around 90 percent capacity since May of this year.





12,800 children at $775 per day means taxpayers are paying $9,920,000 a day for this madness. My tax money should be going to putting kids in classrooms not cages. - irishygirl
