Michael Cohen Boston Globe...
“Mr. Speaker, there are alien space craft destroying American cities”
“Later, later, we’ve got rich people taxes to cut”
That’s about right.

trump...
.”...Also, there is NO COLLUSION!“
Does he think if he puts it in all caps it will make it so? Or is this a sign of his frustration ?😁

Andrew Lassner...
“The man who ran for president on his promises that he alone could fix everything is begging his followers on social media to DO SOMETHING.”
Well he kept saying I I I during the campaign....

Andrew Lassner... “The man who ran for president on his promises that he alone could fix everything is begging his followers on social media to DO SOMETHING.” Well he kept saying I I I during the campaign.... Remember he was under the impression that he could single-handedly order a prosecution of Hillary - he promised to do that, too, on national TV. Now he finds that the president of our country is not an omnipotent dictator, and he’s freaking out. My bet: HE will fire Mueller and HE will pardon everyone involved, because that’s what he can do, and congress will do nothing about it. And then there will be an open revolt.

For sure he will pardon his kids. Although somewhere I might have read that dealing with foreign government might no be pardonable, treason? espionage ?

“BREAKING: US court bars Trump from changing military policy on service by transgender people.”
This is not turning into being a good day for trump. Which makes me think he will strike out somehow & soon. He is having lunch with Pence & Sessions today.

It's only going to get worse w/the tech exit.
As this country spirals into violence, greed and apathy, many people w/means who can get out and work elsewhere will start to do just that. I may be one of them in the next 5 years or so. We are going in the wrong direction, imo, and faster than ever. The just-released tax plan kind of cemented it for me.

“Sarah Sanders says "it might not be a bad idea" to investigate Hillary Clinton.“
Wishful thinking on trump’s part but with this “protect trump over country” thinking by the GOP controlled Congress they might do just that to distract from what is important. Sad.

Well................. Clinton's payments for the Russia dossier were legal, but hiding them was notBY ADAV NOTI, OPINION CONTRIBUTOR — 10/30/17 01:40 PM EDT When a presidential campaign and a national political party intentionally mislead voters about how they are raising or spending money, that is no small matter. In 2016, Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign and the Democratic National Committee arranged to pay a company called Fusion GPS to conduct research on Donald Trump. Fusion started researching Trump for The Washington Free Beacon and, reportedly, a Republican candidate whose identity is not yet known. Then, in April 2016, the Clinton campaign and the DNC took over the funding of Fusion’s research. There was nothing inherently wrong with this arrangement. To the contrary, although opposition research sometimes gets a bad rap, it is a perfectly legal — even healthy — practice. Opposition research can provide voters with information about the records and conduct of candidates in important areas that the candidates themselves would often rather not discuss. But to make sure that voters also have the financial information they need, federal law requires campaigns to file reports with the Federal Election Commission. In terms of spending, this requirement is not complicated: The campaign basically just files a report with the FEC listing the people and companies it paid money to and what that money was for. The descriptions can be very simple, such as “advertising,” “payroll” or “research.” The FEC then posts this information online for everyone to see. The Clinton campaign and the DNC did not comply with their legal obligation to disclose their payments to Fusion for opposition research. Instead, they concealed the fact that any payments were made to Fusion at all. Rather than disclosing the spending, the campaign and the DNC told the FEC the money had gone to their law firm, and the Clinton campaign said that it had made the payments for “legal services.” That was not true. The money was not for “legal services,” and to describe it as having been paid to the firm is highly misleading. The firm was a conduit between Fusion and the Clinton campaign and DNC. In other words, money that went to the firm was ultimately paid to Fusion. And Fusion provided no legal services to anyone. To the contrary, what Fusion provided in the end turned out to be the infamous “Trump dossier,” with its smorgasbord of allegations.

I may be one of them in the next 5 years or so. We are going in the wrong direction, imo, and faster than ever. The just-released tax plan kind of cemented it for me. Yep. Our future plans have a lot riding on how this plays out, as well as next year's elections. If the country heads towards the Trump/Bannon style government, it will be quite clear that our views and future do not have much in common with the rest of the country. We have options and we will use them. They don't seem to realize that the ones who will leave aren't the uneducated with no prospects. It's the ones who DO have options elsewhere who will take them.

What sucks is that during that time, the US view (the view that's projected to the world, anyway) won't have much in common with the rest of the developed world, either. Sadly, that isn't the view of the entire populace, but it won't matter at that point, because the US will already be isolated and left behind economically, scientifically, etc..

“FLAG Trump's approval hits a new low with Gallup.
Approve 33% Disapprove 62% NET -29 bit.ly/2gPybth”
The key number is disapprove. That number has been inching up as more of the undecided decide.

Jeremy Diamond....
“Trump is worried special counsel's investigation will "hamstring" his ability to negotiate with world leaders, senior WH official says”
That may be true except even without the investigation his negotiating skills suck because he doesn’t understand what he is negotiating for.
What a delusional twit.
Chris Lu says it better...
“Meanwhile, his inability to grasp policy, foreign business conflicts, erratic tweeting, and undermining of diplomacy pose no problems at all”

“John Kelly says Clinton should be investigated, calls Robert E. Lee "honorable," won't apologize to Rep. Wilson”
So either Kelly has turned to the dark side or he was already a scuzzball hiding behind General stars. In any case it’s clear there is no adult in the West Wing.

Well someone is in a dither this morning....
“The biggest story yesterday, the one that has the Dems in a dither, is Podesta running from his firm. What he know about Crooked Dems is....
.”...earth shattering. He and his brother could Drain The Swamp, which would be yet another campaign promise fulfilled. Fake News weak!”
I don’t know the extent of Podesta’s brother involvement with Manafort. But if he is guilty of something then nail his hide to the wall.
But what tiny hands is trying to do is deflect from the fact that he is the swamp and it won’t be drained until he and his band of corrupt destroyers are gone.

Just trying to be positive tonight. What are the chances Joe Biden will run in 2020? I could see him "executive ordering" like crazy to undo all of what Trump undid. Just my happy thought for tonight. I might just die of happiness if that came true.

“I disagree with David Brooks's historical gloss on partisanship here, but there's something to this: "Trump’s supporters follow him because he gets his facts wrong, but he gets his myths right. He tells the morality tale that works for them." "
Certainly something to ponder but he may be on to something.

“The outsider candidate Trump had to look outside the mainstream for staff. Those hires are coming back to haunt him. politi.co/2zmiK70”
As he has had to do for his cabinet and others that work in The West Wing. And he is doing the same with the judges he is appointing.

This is a mere bump as more and more businesses powered by coal are turning to cheaper cleaner alternatives.
