I just hope the Ethics Committee is vigorously pursuing all the white Christians who have also made use of this FEC regulation.   I mean, I'm sure they will get right on that, right?


Pick one.

Pick ten

See how many took campaign funds to buy steaks.

They use the money to pay for their mistresses’ abortions, their terrible wardrobes, and for illegal voting fraud operations for which they are later inevitably busted.

The lobbyists gaining illegal influence pay for the steaks.

Roger Stone, 7 times guilty, suggests we dig a little deeper into the still obstructed Russian mess considering the CrowdStrike conspiracy came right of the lips of the GRU agent pulling Manafort’s strings. The current bumbling crime spree is a further complication of the Russian hack that goes further back than when an imbecile first started spouting birtherism to mask his sense of white inferiority.

So the Mueller "Witch Hunt" found another witch...

And yet Trump's DOJ is still "investigating" its origins in order to claim the effort was ill founded?

Guess we know what that animated discussion with Barr was about last night.

You can't be that stupid.

She took the money, on purpose, because it was completely legal in circumstances where a candidate has left their regular day job to campaign and thus cannot pay their basic bills.  It's a good law, because it gives the non-affluent a shot at running for office.  The prospect, for a mother with children, of getting into deep debt is a deterrent to participation in politics.

If you have ANY evidence that she used to money to buy a sailboat or a vacation house, PLEASE provide it.  OR STFU.

Oilcan, while you're awaiting that evidence, I would suggest passing the time by working till retirement age, then retiring, doing volunteer work, growing extremely old, and then dying and resting in an incorporeal state until the sun goes nova and earth is vaporized. 

Meanwhile, "president" Trump adding articles of impeachment in real time.



The more cornered Rat 45 feels, the uglier this will get.  If it doesn't meet the technical bar for witness intimidation, it's still reprehensible. 

Democrats need to cast a strong light on what Trump tweets.  I think many shrug, because they've accepted that a lot of Trumpers are in the "we like what he does, not what he says" camp, and really aren't moved by all the slander and lying.  Democrats need to remind voters in the middle that, when you are POTUS, words sometimes function as actions - or spurs to action by others.

There’s that point where you find out a person you were on the fence about but kind of stuck with is really too horrendous of a rat bastard to safely endure. Millions of Americans are entering that moment with their perceptions of donald trump.

The Javelins were approved in 2017, not only as good U.S. strategy, but as a fig leaf for republicans with their new Russian puppet boss, Flynn, Jared, Sergi & Dimitri, Manafort, Slater, and Cohen all already causing heat to build on the stove. Trump’s one change to the GOP platform was the removal of lethal aid to the Ukraine. If anyone gets thanked for holding up those Russian tanks it’s investigative journalists and the open investigations into the Russian warfare, the trump campaign, and transition.

Thank you Comey, Clapper, Iskoff, Nance, et al.

Red’s village voted the Earth was flat. Nothing bogus about that, the Earth being flat. As if one could go round without falling off, imagine that!


Ha!

If the world were flat all the cats in the world would be knocking shit off the edge.

Why?

He is a terrible witness or source for anything because he is a convicted felon.

This is pre-sentencing. Pardoning Stone would be several more impeachment counts right there. He might do it on the day he resigns...

What is certain though is that Roger Stone is getting a “perfect” tattoo of trump at the other end of his spine from the one he has of Nixon.
