Say what?!?! Former president Donald Trump issued a statement Saturday suggesting that unnamed members of Hillary Clinton's 2016 presidential campaign staff should be put to death. *** Trump was responding to allegations put forth by Durham in a court filing this week. Trump said in the statement from his Save America PAC. "This is a scandal far greater in scope and magnitude than Watergate and those who were involved in and knew about this spying operation should be subject to criminal prosecution. In a stronger period of time in our country, this crime would have been punishable by death. www.rawstory.com/donald-trump-2656646993/And he is being investigated for taking classified document, top secret at that!!

He's an arrogant, pompous entitled ass. Does he realize only 55% of Americans actually own stock? And the wealthiest 10% own almost 90% of US stocks. Comparing his net worth to the growth of the S&P is obnoxious. He didn't put his stocks in a blind trust when elected nor did he sell them as promised. Another reason to pass legislation requiring the legislature, executive and judicial branches to put their investments in a blind trust or divest. According to this, he financially benefitted from an addition to the tax bill that he negotiated. congressionalintegrity.org/memo-how-ron-johnson-has-enriched-himself-while-in-office/In 2017, Johnson cast the deciding vote for the Republican tax bill — but only after winning changes to the bill that lined his own pockets. Before providing the crucial 50th vote, Johnson successfully pressured Senate leadership to lower taxes for passthrough businesses, or businesses whose owners report profits on their individual tax returns. Those changes significantly lessened the tax burden on companies like Pacur, still run by Johnson’s brother. That, in turn, would be expected to increase the value of Johnson and his family’s stakes.And not surprisingly, he paid little in taxes www.usnews.com/news/best-states/wisconsin/articles/2021-09-30/sen-ron-johnson-paid-little-in-income-taxes-in-2017www.opensecrets.org/members-of-congress/ron-johnson/summary?cid=N00032546&cycle=CareerI really hope he loses the next election.

NYT Giuliani might be talking to the Select committee!! In what could be a major breakthrough, Rudy Giuliani is reportedly in talks with the House Jan. 6 committee about responding to its questions. Giuliani, Donald Trump's personal attorney, helped lead the former president's efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 election. www.rawstory.com/rudy-giuli/

I'm posting a link to a facebook post - Heather Cox Richardson posts a daily political summary usually 6 times a week. Pretty good read! Maybe you can't see it on mobile? I can’t see it when I am on my iPad, isn’t that weird? It shows up on my phone though, and for some reason in the quote box, but when I look at it in the thread when you post it is just the d=n bit. Super odd. Thank you for explaining, I thought it was some code I wasn’t cool enough to know! Weird!! You are definitely in the cool kids club!! 😂😂

Is she reading a different Bible than I read? And who wrote the Ten Commandments? Has she gotten her Testaments mixed up? Speaking on Jenna Ellis’s podcast, the Republican explained that she believes that Reagan was a great president, but that she's a real Christian, so she only believes in the Ten Commandments.Greene went on to say that she believes that it's her job to push Republicans to be who the party's voters want them to be. That appears to include absolute fidelity to Donald Trump. Two of the House conference has broken that devotion by serving on the House Select Committee investigating the Jan. 6 attack. www.rawstory.com/marjorie-taylor-greene-ronald-reagan/

The great negotiator bombed again it appears…
From the article…
”It just doesn’t get any better than this," President Donald Trump proclaimed in January 2020 as he signed a partial trade deal with China. Mr. Trump heralded the pact as “historic” and “momentous.” He touted his dealmaking abilities for getting China to commit to purchase an extra $200 billion of U.S. products in the next two years.
The results are in: China didn’t buy anything extra from the United States. The purchases of U.S. exports that China did make in the past two years barely got back to the amount China was purchasing in 2017 — before Mr. Trump started his trade war, according to calculations by Chad P. Bown of the Peterson Institute for International Economics. U.S. exporters will never get back the sales they lost, and few have seen any meaningful growth in their sales to China under the “deal.” “The only undisputed ‘historical’ aspect of that agreement is its failure,” said Mr. Bown.
The main result of Mr. Trump’s bluster on trade was higher costs to the American public. Numerous studies have shown how tariffs were mostly passed along to American consumers, causing prices to rise on thousands of popular everyday items. It was a debacle that was easy to predict. Business leaders, economists and former trade officials from both parties warned the Trump White House repeatedly that the nation would have been better off without the trade war and the tenuous agreement that was ultimately reached (and not adhered to) with China.
The smarter move would have been to keep the United States in the Trans-Pacific Partnership, the big trade deal with other nations in the Pacific, including Vietnam, Singapore, Canada, Australia and Chile. The whole purpose of the TPP was to boost trade among other nations and lessen reliance on China, which was excluded from the deal. But Mr. Trump pulled out of the TPP in his first week in office, and other nations went ahead and completed the trade pact on their own. In an ironic twist, China is now petitioning to join.”
I read one of the main reasons that President Obama pushed the TTP was China would be excluded.

Profiting off his part in the insurrection!! Josh Hawley caught selling campaign merchandise featuring his Jan. 6 fist-pumpDavid Edwards February 14, 2022 Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) this week was found to be selling campaign gear featuring his controversial fist-pump encouraging violent protesters on Jan. 6. Although Hawley has faced intense criticism for the gesture, a coffee mug with an image of the senator's fist-pump showed up on his campaign merchandise. The ceramic mug sells for $20 and includes the slogan "Show-me Strong." Hawley's hometown newspaper, The Kansas City Star, has concluded that the senator has "blood on his hands" because he helped incite the riot at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6.www.rawstory.com/josh-hawley-fist-pump/

NEW YORK — A judge on Monday indicated he will dismiss Sarah Palin’s libel case against the New York Times, saying she had not met the legal standard showing that the newspaper acted with “actual malice” in publishing a 2017 editorial that included an inaccurate claim about her.

Former's long time accounting firm has severed ties with trump. Mazars USA says they can no longer stand by all the years worth of financial statements being reliable that they have prepared for former. Former and Melania's too.(Due to be filed, tomorrow, Feb 15, 2022. *** Mazars letter 'amounts to a declaration' that Trump 'repeatedly misled' them about finances: legal expertBrad Reed February 14, 2022 Attorney Luppe Luppen has written up an analysis of the Mazars letter, and he believes that Mazars is indicating it believes that the Trump Organization engaged in financial fraud. "The determination by Mazars that Trump’s financial statements over a full decade are not reliable through no fault of its own amounts to a declaration that it has been repeatedly misled by its client," he writes. **** "Mazars informed Garten that it wouldn’t be able to complete some tax returns on behalf of the former president and his wife that are due tomorrow," he explains. "According to the date on the letter, February 9, it only gave the Trumps six days to find substitute accountants to finish the job on time." *** "Mazars chalked up the delay in preparing these returns... to some unspecified information about what it called 'the Matt Calimari Jr. apartment' that it had been asking for over a period of months and had never received," he writes. "The Trump Org’s security chief is Matthew Calimari, and he and his son reportedly oversee the vast surveillance apparatus at the former president’s commercial properties." www.rawstory.com/mazars-trump-2656664202/

Oh oh I see lawsuits coming… From the Guardian. linkDonald Trump’s longtime accountancy firm cut ties with his business last week, saying that nearly a decade’s worth of Trump’s filings should “no longer be relied upon”.The move comes amid ongoing criminal and civil investigations into whether Trump illegally inflated the value of his assets. In a letter to the Trump Organization dated 9 February, William Kelly, US general counsel of the accountancy firm Mazars, said Trump’s financial statements for the period 30 June 2011 to 30 June 2020 “should no longer be replied upon and you should inform any recipients thereof who are currently relying upon one or more of those documents that those documents should not be relied upon”.Mazars added it would no longer “provide any new work product to the Trump Organization”. The statement was disclosed in the new court documents filed on Monday by the New York attorney general, Letitia James, who, along with the Manhattan district attorney’s office, has been investigating whether Trump used false financial statements to defraud lenders.
