Sociopath

by Bob R/CA

Jul 28, 2017

"Dennis Burnham, who lived next door, was a toddler when his mother briefly put him in a playpen in their garden. She returned a few minutes later to find the current U.S. president, then aged five or six, standing at his fence throwing rocks at the little boy."

Even as a child Donald Trump was a horror

According to Trump Revealed, a new biography compiled by Washington Post journalists who spoke to people who knew Trump as a child, he’s the same character now as when he was in junior school.

Maxine refuses to allow answers to her questions

by Tim Finnegan

Jul 27, 2017

12 times! Would she have interrupted a Democrat that many times? A woman? An African-American? Such disrespect shown by Maxine Waters. She really didn't want answers to her questions ... she just wanted to wield her "power" despite the rules of the hearing. But, that's the Democrat way. I wonder what Kamala Harris would say about someone not listen...See More

Maxine Waters was more interested in grandstanding on Thursday than actually getting answers to her questions. While the California congresswoman was able to ask Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin questions during a Financial Services Committee hearing toda

Unmasking the un-maskers

by Tim Finnegan

Jul 27, 2017

Seems that an Obama admin official made hundreds of requests for unmasking, despite not being involved in a position with no intelligence related function.

Was this proper? Were these the people involved in the leaking? Hopefully the leakers will be held accountable to the full extent of the law. Who knows how much this hacking of intellig...See More

What are the Democrats worried will be said?

by Tim Finnegan

Jul 27, 2017

Seems the Dems want to block the testimony of Browder against Fusion GPS (Those behind the infamous Trump dossier that has been largely discredited). I thought the left wanted to investigate things thoroughly and quickly, not use parliamentary procedures to draw things out. Or do they really want to get to the bottom of things at all? What are they...See More

Russia probe: Democrats block key witness against shadowy firm Fusion GPS

Senate Democrats used a parliamentary maneuver Wednesday to cut short a high-profile hearing, where a key witness was set to testify on Russia's misdeeds and also raise fresh allegations against the company behind the infamous anti-Trump dossier.

The fraud charges for the former IT employee of DWS may just be a placeholder. It'll be interesting to see what comes of this, what the other charges may be, and how high up the party it goes.

Lawyer for Wasserman Schultz' ex-IT aide: Fraud count might be 'placeholder' for more charges

The attorney for a House IT staffer arrested this week as he was trying to leave the country fired back at the feds in an interview with Fox News, while also speculating that the bank fraud count he faces could be a “placeholder” for more charges.

Modern day vocabulary

by Bob R/CA

Jul 25, 2017

We've learned that "modern day presidential" means bragging about grabbing women by the *****, blaming everyone else for your failures, and pretending that truth is subservient to the office.

Now we've learned that modern day "loyalty" means you betray your country for me, and I turn on you the minute it helps me.

Any questions? N...See More

Tim Finnegan Well, Hillary was almost presidential. She did blame everyone else for her failures this election season. Russia. Comey. Sexism. Trump.

Modern day vocab for dems ... cutting spending means increasing spending.

Voting to fix Obamacare means repealing Obamacare when Obama is president, but is on the table to make it better now.

Long Time Lurker Apparently, when you put a child in a leadership position, his followers will behave in kind. The "but she..." defense doesn't work in court or even in second grade classrooms, but otherwise adult-seeming defenders will reduce to this tactic with a rather high consistency.

Trump’s Sessions Abuse

His demand that his AG prosecute Clinton crosses a red line.

EasTexSteve HA! Session's should indeed prosecute Clinton if there is any criminal activity involved. Why should she get a pass? Do you think you or I would get away with what she did?
