It was really treason.” He also claimed he plans to release the classified documents the FBI used to launch a probe of Russian interference in his election.

Barbara Bush blamed Trump for 'heart attack': book


Barbara Bush blamed Trump for 'heart attack': book
Barbara Bush blamed President Trump for what she called her “heart attack” in 2016, according to an excerpt from an upcoming book on the former first lady, "The Matriarch."



Guess who George H. W. Bush, his wife, Attorney General William Barr and Trump admired? Nixon. They all thought he got screwed. Forget the ghost of Barbara Bush seeking revenge on Trump, it's Nixon's ghost who is still haunting us all with his revenge. 






The World Is A Safer Place Without Saddam Trump

Stand proud, America, because if Trump *didn't* collude, that means that Putin was able to manipulate the gullible fucking moron into doing his bidding just by appealing to his bottomless vanity, and don't think that Kim, Bibi and Bone Saw Arabia weren't watching and taking notes. - Jeff Tiedrich




The Latest Episode Of Kellyanne & George!
George Conway, a lawyer married to White House counselor Kellyanne Conway, argued Tuesday that special counsel Robert Mueller's report must have "something pretty damning in it" if it could not exonerate President Trump on the question of obstruction of justice.

Trump Continues To Kick Puerto Rico When They're Down
President Donald Trump, in a closed door meeting Tuesday with Senate Republicans, again took a swipe at Puerto Rico's fiscal management and the size of its disaster relief in the wake of damaging storms last week -- and he brought a visual aid to try and back up his point, according to senators in the room.





There's no dispute that Russia influenced an election where the biggest popular vote loser in 140 years won. There's no dispute that Trump lied about his and campaign's dealings with the Russians as this was happening. The only dispute is whether they should get away with it. - LOLGOP

Attorneys for Jussie Smollett said Tuesday that all criminal charges against the "Empire" actor and singer have been dropped. Smollett had been charged with falsifying a police report by claiming he was the victim of a racist and homophobic attack.

I'll fully form my opinion when I read the Mueller Report but until then...

Trump administration now says entire Affordable Care Act should be struck down
The Trump administration on Monday said the entire Affordable Care Act should be struck down, in a dramatic reversal.
In a filing with a federal appeals court, the Justice Department said it agreed with the ruling of a federal judge in Texas that invalidated the Obama-era health care law.


Donald Trump's proposed Obamacare replacement:

A Republican Congressman quoted Hitler on the House floor yesterday and it barely even made the news. If that isn’t a perfect summary of these past few years I don’t know what is. - OhNoSheTwint




Republican snowflakes are demandin' we apologize to Trump, so here goes....
"Donald Trump, we are truly sorry the interactions with the Russians you lied about don't amount to criminal conspiracy." - Tea Pain



The day after Trump fired Comey, he told the Russians in the Oval Office,“I just fired the head of the F.B.I. He was crazy, a real nut job. I faced great pressure because of Russia. That’s taken off.”

Apparently, I misinterpreted that for obstruction of justice.



Sarah Sanders said that Trump's accusers should be executed: "They literally accused the President of the United States of being an agent for a foreign government. That's equivalent to treason. Thats punishable by death in this country." 

That is terrifying vindictive bravado. They don't want to lock them up anymore, they want to execute them.
