Memory issues?? Mulvaney: Trump regularly asks why Roy Moore lostBY JOHN BOWDEN - 09/08/18 05:06 PM EDT White House budget director Mick Mulvaney said Saturday during a closed-door meeting with Republicans that the president asks him "all the time" why Moore was unable to defeat now-Sen. Doug Jones (D-Ala.), according to The New York Times. “The president asks me all the time, ‘Why did Roy Moore lose?’” Mulvaney said, according to audio obtained by the Times. “That’s easy. He was a terrible candidate,” he continued. Jones beat Moore by 1.5 percentage points in December. More at link: thehill.com/homenews/administration/405724-mulvaney-trump-regularly-asks-why-roy-moore-lostHow many times have some caretakers mentioned the repeated questions, over and over again?!?!?!?

K A R M A !opps missed your KARMA!
ETA: OH...... would Garland have to recuse?!?!?!?!??! Please tell me no. I've read no because Gorsuch took his seat not Kavanaugh. Garland is also Kavanaugh,s boss so he can look into his behaviours. Ah, ok that must be why they filed the papers with Garland. Although Kavanaugh said nice things about Garland, that he was an excellent judge etc........ Just on MSNBC it was mentioned that Kavanaugh has a very good friend who works at the law firm, Kamal Harris asked him about.... Kasewich(sp) firm, dt's personal lawyer....... Sorry mind is a bit fuzzy tonight..........

Nunes memo all over again.”
If there was no collusion why not want for the investigation to conclude and show there was no collusion?
My guess is trump is afraid Mueller & Co will find what trump is hiding so he is doing everything he can to shut down the investigation before they do. Personally I think it’s money laundering for Russian Oligarchs he is hiding.

Duke stores its coal ash in pits near plants where it still burns coal and those where it formerly burned it. At many Duke Energy sites, including Allen, the coal ash is mixed with water and stored in unlined pits—essentially ponds—where, environmentalists say, the mixture seeps into the groundwater. Area wells then act like straws, they say, pulling up the polluted water into households like the Browns’.

linkFrom The NY Times Editorial Board.. “Confirmed: Brett Kavanaugh Can’t Be Trusted”
—-> A perfect nominee for a president with no clear relation to the truth.
In a more virtuous world, Judge Brett Kavanaugh would be deeply embarrassed by the manner in which he has arrived at the doorstep of a lifetime appointment to the Supreme Court. Then there are the persistent doubts about his truthfulness in telling senators in 2006 that he had no knowledge of Mr. Bush’s warrantless wiretapping program or his detainee treatment policy — claims that have been called into question by yet more emails, which showed he knew about both of those things years before they became public. As Senator Dick Durbin of Illinois told Judge Kavanaugh on Thursday, “You say that words matter. You claim to be a textualist when you interpret other people’s words, but you don’t want to be held accountable for the plain meaning of your own words.”Judge Kavanaugh was quick to provide lawyerly explanations for all of these discrepancies, but they paint a pattern that’s hard to ignore: He misstates facts under oath, and Republicans cover for him by making it hard, if not impossible, to get the documents proving it. With the help of the White House and a personal lawyer for Mr. Bush, Senator Chuck Grassley, the chairman of the Judiciary Committee, has subverted a long-established, nonpartisan process and hidden more than 90 percent of the material pertaining to Judge Kavanaugh’s time in government. It’s only thanks to Senate Democrats and others that we’ve been able to see important pieces of the judge’s lengthy paper trail. There is far more that was never even requested. Far from being embarrassed by all this, Judge Kavanaugh is acting like someone who knows there is virtually nothing he can do to imperil his nomination.Instead, he’s followed his own cynical advice to a 2002 judicial nominee: “She should not talk about her views on specific policy or legal issues,” he wrote in an email then. “She should say that she has a commitment to follow Supreme Court precedent, that she understands and appreciates the role of a circuit judge, that she will adhere to statutory text, that she has no ideological agenda.” That is more or less how Judge Kavanaugh got through his hearings. But his ideological agenda is well known, which is precisely why he’s been on Republican Supreme Court shortlists for the last decade. That agenda includes, for starters, a well-established hostility to women’s reproductive rights and a stunningly expansive view of presidential power and impunity. He was nominated by a president who undermines daily the nation’s democratic order and mocks the constitutional values that Judge Kavanaugh purports to hold dear.Now he’s being rammed through his confirmation process with an unprecedented degree of secrecy and partisan maneuvering by Republican senators who, despite their overflowing praise for his legal acumen and sterling credentials, appear terrified for the American people to find out much of anything about him beyond his penchant for coaching girls’ basketball. Perhaps most concerning, Judge Kavanaugh seems to have trouble remembering certain important facts about his years of service to Republican administrations. More than once this week, he testified in a way that appeared to directly contradict evidence in the record. For example, he testified that Roe v. Wade is “settled as a precedent of the Supreme Court.” But he said essentially the opposite in a 2003 email leaked to The Times. “I am not sure that all legal scholars refer to Roe as the settled law of the land at the Supreme Court level since Court can always overrule its precedent, and three current Justices on the Court would do so,” he wrote then. Judge Kavanaugh’s backers in the Senate brushed this off by pointing out that his 2003 statement was factually correct. They’re right, which means that his testimony this week was both disingenuous and meaningless. As we’ve learned with each new trickle of previously withheld documents, Judge Kavanaugh didn’t start misleading senators just this week.
At his 2004 confirmation hearing before the Judiciary Committee, he denied any involvement in the vetting of a controversial judicial nominee while serving as one of President George W. Bush’s White House lawyers. The nominee, William Pryor Jr., had among other things called Roe v. Wade “the worst abomination of constitutional law in our history.” In fact, Mr. Kavanaugh was more than a little involved, as emails from that period — which Senate Republicans had withheld until early Thursday morning — made clear. In that 2004 hearing and again in 2006, when he was being considered for a seat on the federal appeals court in Washington, D.C., Mr. Kavanaugh told Congress, under oath, that he knew nothing about the extensive theft of secret strategy documents from Democratic senators’ computers by Republican staffers. As it turns out, he did in fact receive those documents or summaries of them. But he now claims that he had no reason to believe that they had been stolen, even though one email he got had the subject line “spying” and began, “I have a friend who is a mole for us on the left.” Republicans defend their steamrollering by saying that most Democrats have already made up their minds to oppose Judge Kavanaugh. That’s rich: In the months before the 2016 election, multiple high-ranking Republican senators openly vowed to block any and all Supreme Court picks by Hillary Clinton, period. It’s also irrelevant. The people deserve to know everything possible about nominees to a lifetime seat on the highest court in the land, and they depend on their senators to seek out that information and share it. The Constitution calls this process advice and consent. Until the last few years, Republicans claimed to take that responsibility seriously. Now they are making a mockery of what is meant to be a careful and deliberative process by playing three-card monte with the American people. They did the same with last year’s tax bill, rushing it through in the dead of night with virtually no debate or review. The Republicans engage in this sort of subterfuge for an obvious reason: While they hold unified power in Washington, most of their agenda is hugely unpopular. So they hide as much of it as possible out of a fear that if more of it came to light, they will pay at the polls. Come November, voters can make that fear come true.”

I’m glad the Democrats are grilling Kavanaugh hard. If he has lied under oath again, they have set the stage for impeaching him if they take control.
Then that can pull the Mitch McConnell card and refuse to approve another nominee until after 2020.

“The Woodward book is a Joke - just another assault against me, in a barrage of assaults, using now disproven unnamed and anonymous sources. Many have already come forward to say the quotes by them, like the book, are fiction. Dems can’t stand losing. I’ll write the real book!”
I’m not sure what the Democrats have to do with the book. Is Woodward a Democrat?

“The Woodward book is a scam. I don’t talk the way I am quoted. If I did I would not have been elected President. These quotes were made up. The author uses every trick in the book to demean and belittle. I wish the people could see the real facts - and our country is doing GREAT!”
How he talks and acts in public when giving a speech can be used as examples of what not to do.
Ever notice how how many times you see him sitting with his arms crossed or his arms dangling between his legs?

The painful truth is that Americans are about to be hit with a devastating natural disaster and we know from past experience not to count on any genuine words of comfort and support from the white house.

Raw Story...
“Fox News host Jeanine Pirro opened her Saturday night show with a broad condemnation of President Barack Obama’s “full-throttle savage attack” on Donald Trump.
“It has never happened in the history of this country, an ex-president viciously attacking his successor, trashing our commander-in-chief, his party, and all those Americans who put him in the Oval Office,” Pirro said.
“Donald Trump is one of the biggest threats to our democracy?” Pirro said. “How dare you! This man is the president of the United States, someone we put in office, and he is to be respected!”
Pirro then told her audience to not listen to the many Trump administration officials who have complained about the president’s incompetence and poor character in a variety of mediums.
“If you’re a patriot and you like the course America is on, just ignore them, get behind this president, and vote,” she told her viewers.”
So even though trump has proven over and over how unfit he is to be president, we are suppose to respect him. And if we don’t then we are not patriots. Well ok.
Bill Pardy’s response....
“Perhaps Obama should show exactly the amount of respect for Trump that Trump showed for Obama.
Among other things, that would included leveling false charges that he wasn’t actually American.”

Today Omarosa said that she heard the tape of Trump using N word. She thinks it will be released closer to November. Do I think he said it? Absolutely. Do I think there is a tape? Who knows. Of course this is a carefully scheduled attack, but that doesn't mean it isn't the truth.

It’s a scheduled test of all the current senators and representatives who are up for re-election. You can continue to ignore Trumps antics and not say or do anything your choice, your right, but there may just be consequences or there may not. Only time will tell.

There is a difference between “ strong” and being a “bully”. It’s clear those 57% who think trump is “strong” don’t know the difference.
As far as his intelligence goes, my fake flamingo on my balcony is more intelligent than trump.

Frankly the rest of the world is trying to decide how many of us are gullible I heard a piece on the radio yesterday (relating to which candidate, I can't remember) but it was one of his supporters commenting on poll numbers. Her comment was "who are they polling?" "I've never gotten called; are they even polling real people?" So I'm sure his die-hard supporters are out there STILL believing everything they're being told, no matter how far-fetched it is, and believing the rest of what they hear- like these poll numbers- truly IS all fake and made up.

Rep Jim Jordan - you know they guy who knew boys were being sexually abused and did nothing.
“At the same time that Kris Paronto, Ty Woods, and Glenn Daugherty were fighting for their lives in Benghazi, Clinton and State Dept were spinning a narrative blaming the attack on a video.
This must be the “wild conspiracy” that @barackobama was talking about.”
The entire attack by the Republicans was always about that video. I couldn’t figure out why. Then in reading a report from a hearing it hit me. It was because they didn’t want to publicly address one of the main reason people died that day. It’s because the United States had an agreement with Libya that their law enforcement/military would protect our embassies if they were attacked. Which they didn’t. This is type of agreement I suspect we have with all foreign countries where we have embassies, just like we protect their embassies in this country.
But Lbya sat on the sidelines that day until after deaths occurred. They kept a team that came to help at the airport until after the attacks.
Not much was said about that, but plenty was said about that video. Even today.
