Yglesias is good now because he wants desperately to go on Chapo, but ever since like the inauguration he's been a top flight pundit

Seriously I cannot ****ing believe these idiots keep on saying that the leaks are crimes. That can only be the case if the **** they leak is true! STOP SAYING THAT, for christ's sake, as a lawyer this is hurting my soul.

Not to mention that DJT's tweet on the same subject and Grassley's both confirm it's not the fake news story Trump called it (in the very next tweet lol).

Self fulfilling magic tweets. If trump isn't exonerated it's because leaker hasn't leaked the whole thing. :eyeroll:

john oliver did this. he bought airtime on fox news in the D.C. area and hired some old cowboy actor to mimic the catheter commercials while explaining basic concepts of being president

This is great.

Obviously NPR should be WaPo.

But TRUMP should be driving. The GOP elephant should be holding the gun.

How have reporters not asked Trump to throw a spiral through a tire at this point? That's literally all I'd be able to think about.

Imagine if one of those kid reporters who wins a contest to go ask a question or whatever stumped him with something like that?

I can't find much info on Robert Mueller's all star roster, but he definitely has (at least) one prosecutor known nationally for converting guilty parties into solid informants.

Time for people to start "disappearing".

Fun sendoff for Spicey at NYT.

Mr. Spicer’s relationship with the press got off to a bad start. Just one day after President Trump’s inauguration, our boy Sean issued a bizarre statement claiming the crowd was the biggest ever. His sagging suit indicated that perhaps he was not the greatest at gauging the sizes of things.

6 months into the presidency of donald j trump and this is a real headline:

Trump Says He Has ‘Complete Power’ to Pardon

Mr. Trump suggested in a series of early morning messages on Twitter that he had no need to use the pardon power at this point but left the option open. Presidents have the authority to pardon others for federal crimes, but legal scholars debate whether a president can pardon himself. Mr. Trump’s use of the word “complete” seemed to suggest he did not see a limit to that authority.

lol awval, so this is how you're going to play it? As long as we go through the proper steps and respect the process to eventually remove Trump from office (btw, we're not!), everything is fine?

WE WOULDN'T HAVE TO GO THROUGH THE GOD DAMN PROCESS IF YOU HADN'T PUT HIM IN OFFICE IN THE FIRST PLACE
