Flynn won't honor congressional subpoena

Graham called the whole investigation, now a criminal one after the rosenstein meeting.
House ethics chair getting the hell out of congress.

and everyone is like, man none of these are mega stories.

This is why I now have to watch midget transgender pee porn. You become immune.

Is Trump trolling with the use of "peoples" lately?

FBI Director James B. Comey prepared extensively for his discussions with President Trump, out of concern that the president was unlikely to respect the legal and ethical boundaries governing their respective roles, according to associates of the now-fired FBI chief.

The associates recounted how worried Comey was about meeting with Trump and recalled conversations in which they brainstormed how to handle moments in which the president asked for details of an investigation.

Quote:

Before going to the dinner, Comey practiced Trump’s likely questions and his answers with a small group of his most trusted confidants, the associates said, in part to ensure he did not give Trump any ammunition to use against him later.

Did Trump get to him overnight? Are his lawyers suggesting this as damage control? Is his life in danger?

It might be a good move for the FBI to grab him ASAP. Flynn is kind of important to the story.

of course his life is in danger

how many people does Putin have to kill to make that obvious

No way he takes questions, right? I mean, maybe he won't be able to help himself, but the smart move is to walk out after the statements.

I seem to recall that at least two dead Russians were on US soil.

Was he also the guy who ruined the original ACA by voting against some part of the bill?

I guess I have to go with the basest assumption: Trump wants to cut out some middle men in the cocaine smuggling game.

Yes, lieberman is the reason ACA doesn't have the public option.
