Yes, all Syrians are not the same.
Is why all refugees and immigrants must be identified and background-checked before being allowed into the 'Christian' west.

Sufficiently staff your borders is actually a decent pillar of a functional policy.

NY gets to compare the DB records to the state returns for the organization and the grotesque molester himself. They can forward what the find to congress at the same time they file indictments.

Another lawmaker leaves the GOP for the Democrats.

Mercy!  What will we do?

Nothing, I imagine, same as you did while the Dipshit-in-Chief has been undermining the government and preventing us from dealing with Russia's efforts to subvert our voting process.

What a principled member of a party would do (and a principled party) is listen to what the man is saying and work to understand what they are doing wrong.

Just keep on being you, Kiiid.

No doubt with a straight face.

I'll take Mueller's word on it over Jared "I don't qualify for a security clearance" Kushner's.

(reply to Red's last post - quote function is glitching FSR)

Politics, obviously.  Dems want to win in 2020 and push a positive agenda of progressive policy-crafting.  They are anxious that an impeachment trial (which would only result in censure, due to the Senate) would shift focus off that.  I would have agreed, before seeing the M report...and this:

https://www.nytimes.com/2019/04/24/us/politics/russia-2020-election-trump.html

45 is essentially blocking cyberdefense of our democratic process.  That is blatant grounds for ejection from office.

You and Oily posted the same link this a.m.  That's frightening.  I mean what's reported, not that you both posted it.

It may be politically expedient, per Pelosi, not to go right for impeachment, but I'm not sure the Democratic party can really claim to any integrity if it doesn't pretty soon.  Part of the basis of representative democracy is that we elect people who are expected to know more than we do (or most of us, anyway) about how to secure the common good and protect democracy and the constitution.


This reminds of something an elder friend trump led me when I was a young political operative demanding we attack the county GOP head on regardless the consequences. He said, “Son, there are two bulls on a hill watching over the herd and the younger one says, ‘let’s run down there and fuck some of those cows!’ The older bull replied, ‘Let’s walk down there and fuck them all.’

Most folks around the country don’t have the Mueller report at the top of their list of priorities so like the SOS Band sang, “Baby we can do it take your time do it right!”

By essentially forcing Democrats to keep filing lawsuits to try to enforce their subpoenas, Mr. Trump will be fighting what he can portray as “presidential harassment” and to stall the inquiries themselves.

No  collusion and no criminal obstruction.
It is a political battle now. And dems seem to b blinking.

You’re looking at the wrong tea leaves and they aren’t even in the right cup. Bud.
That strategy will only work with that core support group... dupes and suckers, like you.
You’re banking on all the employees being subpoenaed hanging tough and not showing up. That calls for total loyalty and commitment from his subordinates... pardon me as I get back off the floor from laughing my ass.

The Mueller Report is the script. The House hearings will be the TV show.
