kiidcarter8 is very concerned that his sources not have any bias, particularly suspect outfits like the New York Times or CNN.

Trump's a fucking evil amoral traitor.

Not news.  None of this is.

We spent two years investigating his soliciting a foreign power to interfere in an election on his behalf, and he got by with a little help from obstruction.  So after getting away with it once, he sees no problem in doing it again. 

His whole career has been pushing the limits of criminality, and just paying the fines when he goes too far.  He thinks he can do that as President of the United States.  Amazingly, Republicans do too.

He’s been a puppet all his life.

When Roy got him to pose in negligee for some intimate glossies, you knew all you needed to know about donald trump. He’s been passed around a whole bunch since then.

Too many attacks on too many fronts. They can obstruct through bullshit only for so long but until public opinion turns on him there’s nothing to be gained by going all in right now.

Trump is going down along with the GOP and it’s a matter of when, not if.

Warren would ban fracking. Not only is that economically stupid it is a power not granted  the federal government, least of all the President, because it is a power that rests with the states.

It seems to depend on who sits in the White House. The guy in it now doesn't seem to acknowledge those pesky limits.

You only do when it suits you, too.

About those coal plants...

I don't agree that we need fossil fuels to make concrete, but I also think it is largely moot when it comes to coal. Ward should stick to "windmills cause cancer."

You might be right if MIT research proves viable. Or we use Nuclear.
Otherwise you have no argument.

The federal government is buying homes on the Florida Keys to encourage folks to leave instead of building and rebuilding what will just be knocked down by the increasingly powerful storms.
