I have accepted that we live in a World where Trump, in spite of all the completely incompetent things that he has done, might remain POTUS until 2025. It's fucked up!!

yes friend.

steel yourself and hang in there

anything less than that horrid future will be a great windfall

Rep Clay Higgins quotes scripture to Cohen, then unleashes some "cop wisdom," then goes back to not understanding the concept of handing over boxes to investigators and then getting them back. He is literally everything I'm afraid of when my taillight is out. Also married four times, was once sued for $140,000 in unpaid child support, and resigned from two police agencies after brutality, breach of ethics allegations.

Big fail in Hanoi.

Mike Penice chief of staff then:

gay people are “dishonest,” “homosexuals are eager to be defined as heterosexual”, “ homosexuals’ repugnant practices of frequent anal intercourse nor should we consider them brave for coming out of the closet.” “ efforts to educate the public that HIV and AIDS do not only affect gay people are a “propaganda campaign,” a “distortion campaign,” and “intentional deception.”
“The campaign’s purpose is both to lobby Congress for more federal funding of AIDS research and to destigmatize the perverted lifestyles homosexuals pursue,”


Mike Penice chief of staff now:

“We have all learned a lot about AIDS over the past 30 years and my heart goes out to all the victims of this terrible disease.”

At the End of a Long, Tedious Cohen Hearing, AOC Was Sharp and Crisp

Wow. That was mindblowing. (Which is sad. She merely did her job.) Two or three bombshells within 200 seconds.

The other idiots just wanted to make good TV and didn't say or do anything of any importance or consequence.

Maybe if Team Trump did some prepwork first, instead of Amateur Hour....,

Ladies and Gentlemen, The President Of The United States Of America:

"He knew the case very well. But he knew it later. And, you know, you’ve got a lot of people. Big country. Lot of people. And in those prisons and those camps, you have a lot of people. And some really bad things happened to Otto. Some really bad things.”

Agreed. By the by, the New York magazine video which immediately follows is "Radical Beauty: Inside a Naked Yoga Class"... which unfortunately does not feature AOC.

This Trumps every other unfathomably stupid fucking thing ever said on this thread. No, you're not, you homophobic FUCK.

washington guv inslee enters primary race

But her emails. Lock her up.

(So, anything else come out of CPAC?)

oh they’re having one now?

lol

so i just caught a brief clip of cpac on reuters tv and it was a deformed sweaty orange blob making fun of warren and o’casio

as much as he makes me wanna puke some of his words rang true:

1) that the mean green machine would shatter individual rights and replace them with government control and a senator stands behind her as nods in agreement

2) that he should have saved the pocahontas slur for next year so that he could have run against warren, but now he can’t cuz he already destroyed her political career (ouch)

sure, a disgusting buffoon, to think of him is to vomit, but an effective buffoon regardless in at least his self-promotion skills and landing punches. shit...

he’s right about the “federal jobs guarantee” green hallucination though. o’casio (of casio) is already making lists of democrats who don’t fall in line to purge them for 2020. fucking shit.

don’t know who is worse anymore... only positive i have for of casio is that she is not president—because she’s just like trump, a demagogue, only a different color stripe.

CPAC, isn’t that one of those things unhealthy people need for brain apnea?

Poor flag. I wonder if he popped a TicTac before he groped it?

hickenlooper joins the fray

thank fuck

Up next in the demorats hamster and gerbil show is Felix Sater, who just happens to have been Loretta Lynch's undercover FINTECH spy for the past 10 years, and took home $39,975,000.



Felix Sater has been described as a career criminal due to his links to organized crime. In 1991, Sater got into an argument with a commodities broker at the El Rio Grande restaurant and bar in Midtown Manhattan. He stabbed the man's cheek and neck with the stem of a cocktail glass, breaking his jaw, lacerating his face, and severing nerves, creating a wound that would require 110 stitches to treat. Sater was convicted of first degree assault, and spent 15 months in minimum security Edgecombe Correctional Facility in New York City before being paroled. In 1998, Sater was convicted of fraud in connection to a $40 million penny stock pump and dump scheme conducted by the Russian Mafia involving his company White Rock Partners. In return for a guilty plea, Sater agreed to assist the FBI and federal prosecutors as an informant in organized crime. In 2009, he was sentenced to pay a $25,000 fine and served no prison time. As a result of his assistance, Sater's court records were sealed for 10 years by Loretta Lynch, then the United States Attorney for the Eastern District of New York. Lynch's decision to seal his records was discussed at her 2015 Congressional confirmation hearings to become attorney general; she stated that Sater provided "information crucial to national security and the conviction of over 20 individuals, including those responsible for committing massive financial fraud and members of La Cosa Nostra."

N Korea has continued its hacking attacks since the last meeting - did N Korea think we'd not know what they were up to?
Trump did the right thing, bargaining from strength, and not giving anything up, other than a commitment to continue to talk.
