Trump Calls Impeachment a ‘Dirty, Filthy, Disgusting Word’
President Donald Trump renewed his assertion that Robert Mueller’s report exonerated him of wrongdoing, claiming that the special counsel "would have brought charges" if he could, and adding that he “can’t imagine the courts allowing” him to be impeached.

This is the Nancy Pelosi I want to see

Pelosi Neither Deterred Nor Spurred By Mueller Statement: ‘Congress Will Continue to Investigate’
Speaker Nancy Pelosi issued a statement on Wednesday in response to retiring Special Counsel Robert Mueller‘s big news press conference...The Special Counsel’s report revealed that the President’s campaign welcomed Russian interference in the election, and laid out eleven instances of the President’s obstruction of the investigation. The Congress holds sacred its constitutional responsibility to investigate and hold the President accountable for his abuse of power.
The Congress will continue to investigate and legislate to protect our elections and secure our democracy. The American people must have the truth...


Given that Special Counsel Mueller was unable to pursue criminal charges against the President, it falls to Congress to respond to the crimes, lies and other wrongdoing of President Trump – and we will do so. No one, not even the President of the United States, is above the law. - Rep. Jerry Nadler tweet

And it's only Wednesday!

Remember, Barr said that there was no strong case of obstruction and that he and Rosenstein decided there was no obstruction. That is NOT what Mueller just said. - David Corn





My God.
 A man set himself on fire Wednesday on the Ellipse in downtown Washington, across from the White House, the Secret Service said.


Mueller said basically- I spent two years writing a report and gave you my findings, you did nothing. 
So, I had to come out here and spell it out for you. I couldn’t do anything, but you can. Here’s the football. - David Yankovich

Imagine if we started with this statement instead of Barr’s. - Jon Favreau tweet






I Guess Steve Bannon And Trump Aren't Friends Anymore
While Steve Bannon’s last time talking to author Michael Wolff for a book resulted in him receiving a round of condemnation from Donald Trump and his allies, Bannon is back to insulting the president in Wolff’s new work — this time labeling him “just another scumbag.”

He will also not participate in a carriage ride to Buckingham Palace, a decision attributed to ‘security concerns’.
And Mr Trump won’t stay in Buckingham Palace during his three-day visit due to renovation work.

Trump is back in the USA

More Americans say Trump has presidential qualities: Gallup
More Americans now say President Trump has the personality and leadership qualities a president should have than they did two years ago, according to a new poll.
Forty percent of Americans surveyed in the Gallup poll released Tuesday said that Trump has presidential qualities. That percentage has risen from 33 percent in 2017.

Subject: Memorial Day

Memorial Day has a special meaning to those of us who served, and I for one don’t see it as a gleeful occasion.

But then “Happy Memorial Day” is one of those perfunctory, unthinking, and largely-meaningless greetings, like “Hi, how are you?” asked by a person who does not actually give a rat’s ass how you are.

As a culture, we have adopted the lazy habit of prefixing any holiday with “Happy.”  Sometimes it works: Happy New Year, Happy Valentine’s Day, Happy Birthday.  But for Memorial Day, it just doesn’t.

There is one exception: if Trump is sentenced to prison on May 30, 2022, THAT will be a Happy Memorial Day.

I too am glad Cadet Bone Spurs was out of the country for Memorial Day.  The day would have no meaning for him and his presence would only diminish the day’s importance.

Cadet Bone Spurs.  I remember the day of my first draft physical, in March 1968.  It was the month after the Tet Offensive and the Army needed bodies.

I was one of 178 guys who got their physicals on that day and we ALL passed.  There were people wheezing; people limping, people with arms in slings, people strung out on drugs, people with communicable diseases and festering sores but none of that mattered: we all passed our physicals.

I remember one guy in particular who had bright purple scars up and down both knees where cartilage had been removed.  He was told, “If they give you trouble in boot camp, we’ll issue knee pads.”  He passed.

And yet Cadet Bone Spurs was able to sashay in and out only months later with a draft classification of 1-Y: “Registrant qualified for service only in time of war or national emergency.”  If memory serves, there was a war going on at that time.  Three months after that, he got a 4-F classification.

What a f*cking loathsome slimeball the guy is.  In fact, I have never used the adjective “f*cking” more freely than I have when describing anything related to Donald Trump or his f*cking snakebitten presidency.

Rick.



F*ck, yeah!

Thank you for your service, Rick and your email.

I, along with millions of others cannot comprehend how Trump can remain in office. 

I blame the main stream media. They keep interviewing these malignant Trumpsters and giving them and their nutty ideas exposure every damn day. 

That piece in the New York Times Maggie Haberman did on Hope Hicks was appalling and is exactly what is wrong with DC journalists. It reminded me of NBC's David Gregory dancing and rapping with Karl Rove as two wars were raging and the economy was collapsing in 2007 due to Dubya. There was hardly a kerfuffle from the main stream media. 

Republicans have almost completed their slow-motion coup d'etat. God help us all. Or Nancy Pelosi.


Three years ago, three million more people voted for the Email Lady than the Nazi Moron. can our worthless corporate media please please PLEASE stop asking if America is ready for a woman president. what America is ready for is a media that stops asking stupid f*cking questions . - Jeff Tiedrich

Trump Wants To Diminish The Navy's Power Because -- Steam
President Trump criticized plans to overhaul some U.S. aircraft carriers' catapults while speaking to sailors aboard an assault ship stationed in Japan on Tuesday.
During his remarks, the president once again took aim at the Navy's plans to overhaul traditional steam-based catapults used for launching aircraft with newer electric systems, calling it a "wrong" choice..."I think I’m going to put an order," the president continued. "When we build a new aircraft carrier, we’re going to use steam. I’m going to just put out an order: We’re going to use steam. We don’t need — we don’t need that extra speed."


A moron who doesn't know how to use a computer or send an email, who can't even fold up his own umbrella, is giving design criteria for an aircraft carrier. Seriously. - Alex Cole tweet
