Try to keep up.
One if the nice things about being the President is setting foreign policy. This means you get to decide who our allies are. Apparently Trump has decided Putin is more trust worthy with that info than Germany, UK, Israel. Deal with it.

There is nothing "obvious" about that at all. According to the articles Comey documented what he found to be disturbing conversations or requests, so that they would be memorialized if. There is no evidence these occurred under the Obama adminstration.

That better be an assistant/secretary position where he makes coffee and xeroxes documents.

Trump administration plan to cut $10.6 billion from federal education initiatives.

It's as good as it sounds.

And the deck stacking continues. Sure, why not? The Trump email calling supporters to fight in the trenches also said how he would be purging much more of the government and filling those positions with loyalists. BAD HOMBRE loyalists. The kind like Sheriff Clarke that kill their prisoners by withholding water for 7 days.

Luckily the 5pm anti-Trump bomb will be hitting the airwaves soon.

Seems like Sheriff Clarke, noted most of all by being a Fox News pundit/commentator principally, is also or more importantly symbolic of Idiocracy America. The melding of the Fox News/right-wing infotainment industry and government is a fascinating phenomenon. It's frankly an under-reported phenomenon and people already talk about it a lot; that is, not only the influence of FNC/AM Radio/etc. on the rank-and-file and the masses but how the modern GOP and the entire ideological movement is highly, highly wedded up to the highest offices and elites to its entertainment and propaganda arm. It's not precisely a new political phenomenon at all (see the role of Pravda and Kamenev/Stalin in the early days of the Soviet Union) but it's seemingly largely been unremarked on that Fox News and the right-wing entertainers aren't just theater for the masses but are increasingly informing elites in the party.

When you're in business as an ex-spy I don't think you go by Trump's mantra that all publicity is good publicity, in fact, quite the opposite.

the best thing trump can do now is probably to come out big league for single payer, and let mike pence come out big league for war in north korea.

This might make him wildly popular with the masses but sink him with the party true believers.

Inso0, is what you posted today the best you've got? How does it feel knowing Trump outdid all of it in the last week alone? Maybe even in the last 2 days.

Also, LOL hard if you think what we're seeing is all there is to this iceberg.
05-17-2017 , 04:58 PM
It turns out R's just want comey's memos from the obama administration, which he probably didn't really do, there weren't many convos + obama probably didn't lie his ass off or tell him not to stop investigations.

That's not gonna stop the Republican narrative police.
05-17-2017 , 05:05 PM
The Republicans, upon hearing that Comey takes copious memorandum, will issue requests only for the Comey memos related to either Obama or Hillary Clinton would be something else, I mean I am sad I didn't consider that as the the obvious play, but that's gotta be it right there. "Oh you have tons of documents? What kinda **** do you have on Democrats!? Send those over to us, burn the rest."

we saw this coming but every trump supporter coming into this thread can only think of pointing fingers and being furious at imaginary president hillary clinton. the entire campaign primed them for it; that was the goal.

Please. These Senators talk the talk but when it comes to action, they all vote party line. They're spineless twits puffing out their chests to make themselves look like they aren't.

The only way they jump off of the Trump ship is if their constituents do it first because they know that if they jump off, it won't take much effort for their supporters to vote in somebody who will fall directly in line with Trump, making their sacrifice a futile decision.

If the GOP wants to save their ship, they would be better off working to overthrow the leader and replacing him. They know that if they repair the ship and save everybody from sinking that their supporters won't jump into the water to try to find a different boat. They've been on the same boat for decades and are nice and comfortable on it. Plus their legs hurt. They haven't exercised in a long time. Their eyesight is fading. It's just easier to stay on their boat then search for one that has a captain like Trump.

Gotta create more lil republicans. I'm not a conspiracy guy but I swear it seems republicans actively try to keep as much of the population as stupid as possible.

CNN says Cornyn was first choice for new FBI Director. Luckily, he's already withdrawn from consideration, but tells you where Trump is going. Guess that's exactly what we expected.

They're already asking for Loretta Lynch memos. Probably saving Susan Rice for when they need another big deflection.

they also reported that trump called senator cornyn back after cornyn turned down the job initially to try to change his mind. trump really wanted a republican politician in that job so he could further influence the fbi investigations against him

Four people, including a newborn baby, have died at the Milwaukee County Jail since April. One man, a 38-year-old with mental health issues, died of “profound dehydration.” For a facility with a population cap of 960 that previously averaged a couple of deaths per year, the string of deaths is concerning.
Liberals: That's terrible!

Conservatives: Stop, I can only get so erect!
