Breaking news!

Lol at that being the thing he regrets. He is as much of a scumbag as the rest of them.

No way Fredo would ever lie under oath

My favorite people are the "adults in the room" that keep telling us this whole Rusher thing is a big distraction. Like, oh man, was that a bad reading from the carbon monoxide detector of this_is_fine dog.

yawn

good thing Brett Kavanaugh defender Ben Wittes is all over this! fire some cannons while you're at it my dude

if anyone ever brought an indictment against any of the kids they would get pardoned so fast your head will spin

We got him? Seems like they have lots of corroborating evidence from Trump Org. Would love to see JR in handcuffs tomorrow.

Commentator on Lawrence just said “Mueller knows everything”

Good to point out that Stormy and Avenatti set in motion Cohen and trump co in SDNY.

We've had like 4 "we got him" stories this week and it's not even Friday yet. Nothing matters.

RUDY!

In a sane world Rudy Giuliani would be thrown OFF the Brooklyn Bridge.

The defense when Mueller's report comes out: "We knew this already. It's old news. Nothing to see here."

Sen. Amy Klobuchar, two days ago: “You wrote... a president persuading a person to commit perjury would be obstruction. Is that right?”
William Barr: “Yes.”

The reporters of that Buzzfeed story (Cormier and Leopold) are really good.

Buzzfeed has been consistently killing it.

I disagree and think we'll see the art of the stall right up to the point that one of them is about to spend a night in jail.

Mitch McConnell: Behold the Democrat Politician Protection Act

House Democrats won’t come to the table and negotiate to reopen government, but they’ve been hard at work angling for more control over what you can say about them and how they get reelected. They’re trying to clothe this power grab with cliches about “restoring democracy” and doing it “For the People,” but their proposal is simply a naked attempt to change the rules of American politics to benefit one party. It should be called the Democrat Politician Protection Act.

Why else would the bill scrap the neutrality of the Federal Elections Commission and set it up for a partisan takeover? Since Watergate, the commission has been a six-member body so neither party can use it to punish political opponents. Apparently, Democrats have grown tired of playing fair. This bill would weaponize the FEC with a 3-to-2 partisan makeup.

It would also empower that newly partisan FEC to track and catalogue more of what you say. It would broaden the type of speech the commission can define as “campaign-related” and thus regulate. Many more Americans would have to notify the feds when spending even small amounts of money on speech or else be penalized. That partisan FEC would also get wide latitude to determine when a nonprofit’s speech has crossed that fuzzy “campaign-related” line and then forcibly publicize the group’s private supporters.

Apparently the Democrats define “democracy” as giving Washington a clearer view of whom to intimidate and leaving citizens more vulnerable to public harassment over private views. Under this bill, you’d keep your right to free association as long as your private associations were broadcast to everyone. You’d keep your right to speak freely so long as you notified a distant bureaucracy likely run by the same people you criticized. The bill goes so far as to suggest that the Constitution needs an amendment to override First Amendment protections.

Democrats aren’t only coming after free speech. They’re also taking aim at your wallet. Pelosi and company are pitching new taxpayer subsidies, including a 600 percent government match for certain political donations and a new voucher program that would funnel even more public dollars to campaigns. Maybe that’s why every Democrat opposed our tax cuts for middle-class families and small businesses. They’d rather use your money to enrich campaign consultants.

I’m as firm a supporter as anyone of vigorous debate and a vibrant political discourse — but I don’t think Americans see an urgent need for their tax dollars to be used to bankroll robocalls and attack ads, including for candidates they dislike.

Democrats would also like you to pay for generous new benefits for federal bureaucrats. Their bill proposes making Election Day a new paid holiday for government workers and six additional days’ paid vacation for federal bureaucrats to work the polls during any election. This is the Democrats’ plan to “restore democracy”: extra taxpayer-funded vacation for bureaucrats to hover around while Americans cast their ballots.

**** OFF MITCH

The policy of your party for the last 60 years has been everything you are talking about. Republicans really are the masters of projection.

They do not want election day to be a federal holiday, take that back.
