It's on Reuters as well.

This guy is going to try to govern for 2 months and then deal with legal issues for 46 months lol.

Not a Greenwald fan but this is a ridiculous statement. Of course he's a journalist.

Someone is saying the White House and POTUS twitter accounts have stopped following KellyAnne. Can anyone confirm?

Ok this is the most I've been offended in awhile.

If she was followed by POTUS before, she's not now.

There's nothing wrong with not being a journalist and commenting on it from the outside.

Being a blogger has the benefit of not having to answer to an editor when writing and not torpedoing your career by insulting the powers that be in journalism. It allows Glenn to be unrestrained in his thoughts and truly independent, especially since The Intercept doesn't rely on ad revenue to operate.

This is the most honest answer anyone in Congress has given about why they won't be investigating.

Trump knew.

I'm noticing the same thing. Especially on Facebook. I have yet to see any conservative friends/family post anything political related in 2-3 days. They may be saying stuff privately, but they sure as hell aren't saying it publicly. Nothing about people having access to national security issues at the "winter white house" either.

of course Trump knew

This. My suspicion wrt my mother is that she's just ignoring it to maintain her positive opinion of Trump. Lifelong GOP supporters with a high school education don't change their stripes when they hit their 50's

And it's still complete CHICKEN ****!

The trick is you have to wait for "the left" to do something they can bitch about. Give this whole "Damn liberal media forced Flynn out for NO REASON!" thing time to incubate, I'm sure they'll have scorching hot takes in a day or two.

I'm surprised they haven't resorted to "Obummer gave Iran $2 trillion and the left is mad that Trump wants to be friends with Russia" yet, since "but Obama" seems to be their go-to.

If this does cause Trump support to drop low enough, they'll change their tune on investigating Flynn.

It's also possible (though optimistic on my part) that they're waiting for more to come out on its own to give them a stronger case for removing Trump from office. I mean you know more will come out given how many leaks there have already been up until now.

Inso's playing dumb act here is actually a pretty typical conservative line here, and it really proves a core ****ing liberal talking point very true.

OK. We all remember the 2000s, where any resistance to Iraq or whatever was cause for an accusation that liberals didn't love their country enough. Loud, jingoist patriotism is a right wing culture trait, right?

But it's not reflected in reality. Democrats love their country, they just disagreed with the Bush administration about what was best for it. Always seemed a little bizarre.

So here we have a man who was literally on the Kremlin's payroll secretly working with the Russian ambassador to assure him that policies more favorable to Russia would be implemented.


And Inso doesn't care. Because he ****ing HATES America. It's full of filthy Negroes who terrify him, Mexicans who steal jobs, gays who offend God, and liberals who make fun of him for not knowing how dinosaurs breathe.

What he loves is WHITENESS, and the idealized America that protects whiteness. Russia isn't a geopolitical foe with interests adverse to American foreign policy in his world, Russia is a white country that has a lot of the same cultural hangups as he does. It may not be great for our energy or security policy for Russia to gain power, but it doesn't hurt our whiteness policy.

P.S. Inso is also gay for Putin, but that's a whole nother story.

Jeez. Someone pointed out that Trump, Potus and White House have apparently unfollowed Conway on Twitter.



Whatever that means.

Fly,
while that is certainly possible wrt Inso it is far from certain and too mean and damaging to actually accuse someone of without any proof and only knowing some of their internet posts

Damn. Having all those unfilled positions already and cleaning house 3 weeks in is not a good sign.

Holt ****. Yes, a rich woman getting a hard time being confirmed to a powerful position in government is exactly the same as a six year old black girl getting death threats because she dared to go to school with white students.

These racists are amazing.

In case people don't get the reference:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Pr..._All_Live_With

Michael Tracey (the... cut rate Greenwald?) is still all in on the 'Russians? Who?' train. Young Turks just picked him up btw.

https://medium.com/theyoungturks/mik...1fd#.yx9g7fik6

Robert Kraft next to Melania?

Resolution 41 is the one that doesn't require financial advisors to not steal money from olds?

Yeah, Tracey is a hack.

Stellar proofreading job too.

It's actually lots of $, lots and lots of $. Specifically, oil. Lots of people would get rich with the sanction removal, including exxonmobil (Sec of State former exxon ceo, no conflicts there) and whoever got 19% of rosneft (russia's big oil company) that putin sold them. (under a bunch of shell companies so it can't be proven yet but we all have suspicions)

anyway, the reported favorite to be the new natsec guy Vice Admiral Robert Harward, worked under Mattis and is the CEO for lockheed martin UAE. Lockheed Martin only has a ****load of defense contracts and would greatly benefit from going to war but no conflict of interest there either obv *facepalm*. Almost nobody's going to obstruct or vote against him tho, his military record is strong.

At least he might not have ties to russia, so there's that I guess.

Do you not see the difference between planting stories in the media as a matter of government policy, and leaking stories to the media against the wishes of government?
