16th Weak of the Trumpanzy

Bad news. Hillary still lost the election and Trump just nominated 10 more judges.
 
Sen. Lindsey Graham wants to investigate President Donald Trump’s business dealings with Russia

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) wants to open a congressional investigation of President Donald Trump’s business dealings.

The Republican chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee was intrigued by James Clapper’s refusal to answer a question about the president’s business dealings with Russia, which the former director of national intelligence suggested could jeopardize an ongoing investigation, reported CNN.

Graham asked Clapper if he had any concerns about Trump’s business ties with Russia when the intelligence committee put together an assessment, and the former official said he had not at that time.

But Clapper declined to comment, citing a possible investigation, when Graham broadened the time frame in a follow-up question.

O..kay, go get him Lindsey. :D
 
‘I actually kind of felt bad for him’: Condi Rice shocked Trump admitted the job is harder than he thought

Former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice revealed Tuesday on “The View” that she “felt bad” for President Donald Trump when he admitted the job of president was more difficult than he anticipated.

Co-host Whoopi Goldberg wondered how someone could force a president to “heed a warning,” talking about retired Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn. Rice refused to discuss it saying she doesn’t know what people said or didn’t say to Trump about Flynn.

“We have a different kind of president, alright? Let’s — he’s different,” Rice told the women. “He had never been in government before. And when you haven’t been in government before it looks kind of easy in there, until you get in there. When he said, you know, ‘This job is a lot harder than I thought,’ I actually kind of felt bad for him. It is a really hard job. It’s a lonely job. And you want people around you that you trust.”

Who do you trust in the White House today? Ahaha ha ha ha:D
 
Impeachment would make America great again’: Furious internet nails Trump with #ImpeachTrumpNow

If we really want to Make America Great Again, impeach President Donald Trump. That’s the take from some online Wednesday after he fired FBI Director James Comey on Tuesday. Comey’s firing is the latest in a series of firings of people who were investigating Trump, his campaign or his allies.

Just 110 days into Trump’s presidency, Americans are concerned that the leader was compromised either by Russia or by his own mental instability and paranoia. Others are questioning why Republicans are so resistant to act in opposition to Trump. One person even wondered if Comey’s firing was done to distract from the disaster surrounding the Trumpcare legislation.

Come on, Mikey. The 25th Amendment is your friend. Do it to him before he gets impeached as you will fall with him if he is.

Trump excludes US media from meeting with Russian ambassador — but Russian state news allowed in

One day after firing the man overseeing the FBI investigation into his presidential campaign’s ties to the Russian government, President Donald Trump spent Wednesday morning meeting with Russian government officials in the Oval Office.

However, no American media outlets were allowed to cover the event — and only photographers from Russia’s state-run media were allowed to snap photos, such as the one posted by the Russian embassy’s official Twitter account.
 
With James Comey’s firing, Democrats move closer to ‘impeachment

"We should maybe have an impeachment clock," Rep. Mark Pocan, D-Wis., said on Wednesday. "And if we did, I think yesterday moved us about an hour closer to having that need."

Pocan said he had thought Democrats in the House of Representatives needed to use the threat of impeachment as a "tool" to make the administration follow the law.

"I would argue this has got to still be on the table as an option, especially if, indeed, there was obstruction of justice by the firing of the FBI director," said Pocan, first vice chairman of the Congressional Progressive Caucus.

His colleague, Rep. Ruben Gallego, D-Ariz., said Democrats would call for impeachment "when there is no longer any other recourse."

"When you follow the facts to where the facts lead you, I think it's going to be clear that there was collusion between the Trump campaign and the Russian government to affect the results of this election," Perez said. "It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out why Comey got fired."

Asked whether he was declining to support impeachment, Perez demurred.

"I'd like to know what the facts are," he said. "And the best way to know the facts is to have an independent investigation."

Perhaps we need to appoint a qualified lawyer to head up the investigation, someone who has broad support and experience in government, but has opted out of further ambition for office.

Someone like Hillary Clinton? :D
 
I keep reading the excuse, "Trump is no ordinary President" to provide context to his actions and statements.

I would agree, but without the word "ordinary."
 
Senate Dem grills Trump officials about Russian ties — and reveals investigation of money laundering

Sen. Ron Wyden (D-OR) grilled the CIA director and director of national intelligence over President Donald Trump’s possible business and campaign ties to Russia.

The Oregon Democrat asked CIA director Mike Pompeo during a Senate Intelligence Committee hearing why the president had not immediately fired national security adviser Mike Flynn after the White House counsel was notified that he was vulnerable to blackmail.

Pompeo declined to comment, and Wyden asked if he was aware of those concerns by then-acting Attorney General Sally Yates — which the senator said presented a global threat.

“We hear stories about Deutsche Bank, Bank of Cyprus, shell companies, Moldova, the British Virgin Islands,” Wyden said, offering a glimpse at possible targets of the Senate committee’s investigation. “I’d like to get your sense, because I am over my time, Director McCabe, what should we be most concerned about with respect to illicit Russian money and its potential to be laundered on its way to the United States?”

McCabe told the senator he couldn’t speak about the investigation in a public setting, but he agreed those issues also concerned FBI investigators.

:D:D:D

This guy’s a mobster’: Investigative reporter suspects FBI probing Trump’s ties to Russian mob

“There’s one camp that says there’s nothing to this, which I think is garbage,” James Henry, a lawyer-turned-journalist who writes for DC Report. “There’s another camp that Trump was a mole, is a puppet, it’s all about collusion with respect to last year’s election. And I say the jury is out on that.”

Henry said he would need more information about the FBI investigation and details from FISA warrants to see what was happening — but he has already been exploring Trump’s ties to organized crime.

“There’s a third camp, which is stuff I have been working on, is the organized crime,” Henry said. “This guy’s a mobster. He has all these dodgy business partners. He knew or should have known that they were involved in organized crime, money-laundering, racketeering. That’s pretty hard to deny. We see the people he’s been in business with. We see the deals over and over again. It’s in plain sight. That’s the theory I’ve been working on.”

“You could make a case on good old-fashioned criminal law — if you had a prosecutor,” he added.

Maybe an independent Prosecutor? HRC, has a law degree and I'm sure she's under employed. :):):D
 
Reading the posts on here is very heartening in that many people are willing not only to dedicate and sacrifice their own freedom, but their lives for the cause. The no longer belief that family and country are important, but that a one world, one leader benevolent police state that works hard to make sure we all conform to the new order and that if required by those great leaders who we worship as true Gods, we will surrender our own freedom and the lives and freedom of our families. You have to truly respect those of the Resistance, the Revolutionaries of the New or more correctly Old world belief that only those who rule do so by divine right and not by the right of man.

Just as we rewrite the dictionary, we rewrite the history books. As our former Great Leader said when he went before the United Nations, we need a world Police Force. The Living God Soros believes as we all do in a one world, one leadership where all are citizens of one Nation under one rule. Our leaders know what is best for us and that wealth should be dispersed fairly. Cuba shows us that all people can live on $29 a month and survive on food rations provided by the government. That the leaders should and do by right own all property and land and that we are privileged to live where and how they provide for us. That education, religion, press, speech, and choice of labor are the responsibility of our leaders and not us. They know what is best. That is why they must live like Kings (the Great Leader of North Korea, the Peoples Leaders of China, the leader of Russia (one of the wealthiest men on earth) all must be provided for by the willing generous labor of the people.

You are not required to think or understand the ways of our leaders. If they lie, if they are corrupt, if they are cruel it is because they have the right and duty to do so. The people on here follow as sheep, allowing themselves to be roped like the so called news media were roped and led like cattle by the Great and Wise Leader Secretary Hillary Clinton. You didn’t hear those sheep complain and you won’t either. That is your duty, your purpose in life to obey and surrender your life if necessary for the Leader.

Most people on this post are just short of being completely loyal and worthy of true trust of the State. Just short of being ordered by Soros, Obama, Clinton of strapping devices to their chest like our peace loving brothers and sisters and walking into a mall, hospital or school and bringing our “religious” justice to the criminals who put human rights before the rule of the State. We are truly proud of the people on this post as they in the near future will prove their worth.
As for me and some of the others, we will not be taking part in the revolution. We are the Second Line. The ones that our Leaders, once in full power, will call forth to complete their rightful journey of world rule. Most of you are poorly educated (which is one of the rules of slavery, never allow education or religion or free thought to people who should be treated as beast of burden for the state) and don’t recall the proper ending to such wonderful revolutionary groups that brought former dictators to power such as Hitler’s Brown Shirts, Stalin and Lenin’s Bolsheviks, Mao’s and Castro’s Old Guard for example. Once a revolution is won the worst enemies of the state after doing away with teachers, students, intellectuals, media, gays, unions, criminals, drug users and anyone who might in the least have a brain, is to do away with the turn coats and traitors that brought down the former government. For they are the type that might turn on our Beloved Leaders, so great minds like Hitler, Mao, Stalin, and Lenin to mention a few charged their old guard as counter revolutionaries and stood them up against a wall. That is where the second line comes in. It is we who have the wonderful privilege to destroy the counter revolutionaries such as the people on this post and ensure the rule of our Great Gods, our Cesar’s like Clinton and Obama. But of course you must do your sheep dung duty so that we can do ours.

Remember the rules of the Dark Ages: Lies are the new truth, violence the new peace, criminals the new police, corruption the new rule, slavery the new freedom, weakness the new strength, destruction the new ecology, bigots the new civil rights, conform the new life, and most important the Old Establishment the New Order.

Remember, Resist, Destroy, and Violate the Laws and Human Rights of the People for the Cause.

The above statement has been approved by the Democratic Slave Party and all other stupid anti Freedom Groups including Attila the Hun and Ivan the Terrible co chairmen of the Bring Back The Dark Ages March. Any use or copying of these words of wisdom shall be cause for Isis to spank you. (Oprah for President)
 
Trump’s approval rating falls among white voters

The Quinnipiac University survey found that just 36 percent of voters approve of the job Trump is doing, while 58 percent disapprove. That's a "near-record" negative rating and a drop from last month, the poll noted. In its April 19 poll, Quinnipiac University found Trump's approval rating stood at 40 percent with 56 percent disapproving.

Perhaps even more troubling for the president: The folks who made up his base in November's election appear to be growing weary. White voters are fleeing.

Forty-seven percent of white voters with no college degree approved of Trump's job performance, while 46 percent disapproved, the survey found. That's a steep drop in support from last month, when 57 percent approved of Trump, and compare that to exit polls in November that found 67 percent of non-college-educated whites voted for Trump, the highest such figure for any candidate since 1980.

The good news for Trump is that he is still ahead of Congress for approval ratings. Although that could change if Congress Impeaches the Donald.
 
‘No one can talk sense into him’: CNN guest says even Ivanka seems to have lost control of President Trump

A CNN panel on Friday debated why President Donald Trump has behaved so impulsively over the past week when it comes to the firing of former FBI Director James Comey.

Their conclusion? The president is simply out of control — and there’s no hope of reeling him in.

Real Clear Politics editor A.B. Stoddard told the panel that she was stunned at how badly Trump had botched the Comey firing, and said that it demonstrates that there’s no one in the White House capable of getting Trump to check his impulses.

Stoddard reiterated that all of the supposedly calming influences in the White House — from Vice President Mike Pence to son-in-law Jared Kushner to even First Daughter Ivanka Trump — seem powerless in the wake of the latest chaos.

“No one can talk sense into him,” she said. “Not Vice President Pence. Not Reince Priebus. Not Steve Bannon. Not the kids. Nobody.”

It seems they have lost control of their puppet!:eek:
 

They never had control over him. Either he does flip-flops from what he has indicated to his staff from the beginning is the chosen spin on issues (which is quite possible), or they can't get into their heads to just not voice a WH position on anything until after he's going to do what he does to screw up the issue. The only way those on his staff who aren't related to him can now hope to save their skins is to resign (especially Sean Spicer). There would still be hope for them that people will understand that the egg on their faces was mostly put there by the frenetic con artist.
 
‘It’s complete bananas’: FBI agents rushing to complete Russia probe before ‘orange blob’ can kill it

“It’s complete bananas,” one FBI source told The Daily Beast. “Management in counterintelligence are insanely concerned, worried about the overreaching obstruction and political influence from the White House.”

Trump blurted out in an interview Thursday that he fired Comey over the Russia investigation, which he dismissed as “a made-up story” to excuse Hillary Clinton’s election loss.

The bureau’s interim director, Andrew McCabe, told the Senate Intelligence Committee on Thursday that the investigation would continue — but there are a lot of ways the White House could hobble the investigation.
 
Veteran journalist who covered Watergate says Trump’s Russia scandal is even worse — here’s why

“Based simply on what is known so far, this scandal looks worse than Watergate,” Fallows wrote. “Worse for and about the president. Worse for the overall national interest. Worse in what it suggests about the American democratic system’s ability to defend itself.”

But what concerns Fallows the most is that today’s Republicans have shown no sign they’re willing to stand up against their party’s president.

“On the merits, this era’s Republican president has done far more to justify investigation than Richard Nixon did,” Fallows wrote. “Yet this era’s Republican senators and congressmen have, cravenly, done far less. A few have grumbled about ‘concerns’ and so on, but they have stuck with Trump where it counts, in votes, and since Comey’s firing they have been stunning in their silence.”

Oh now it's Congress' fault our President is a traitorist dickhead?
 

It's gutless Republican Congress' fault he continues being that, yes. It would even be in their self-interest for Pence to become president (theirs, not necessarily mine). They are just gutless and totally dishonest--and traitorous--in their own actions, especially the party leadership in Congress.
 
Where are all the Trumpsters nowadays now that EVERYTHING we predicted about Trump is coming true?

Are the coal jobs back yet?
 
Democratic Rep calls for commission to ‘seriously address’ Trump’s ‘incapacity’ to do his job

Congress has never used the authority the 25th Amendment gave it to create a permanent body for determining presidential fitness to execute the responsibilities of the office.

Freshman Representative Jamie Raskin (D-Maryland) had been in congress less than 100 days when he introduced legislation to remedy this with the Oversight Commission on Presidential Capacity Act. Since he introduced H.R. 1987, it has garnered twenty cosponsors from fourteen states.

Such deference to a new member on such a weighty issue is rare, but Congressman Raskin is highly respected in this field. Before joining Congress, Raskin spent decades teaching constitutional law at American University’s Washington College of Law. He also rose to Senate Majority Whip during his three terms in the Maryland State Senate.

“The 25th Amendment was adopted 50 years ago, but Congress has never set up the body it calls for to determine presidential fitness in the event of physical or psychological incapacity,” Raskin said. “Now is the time to do it.”

So Congress failed to follow through for 50 years? :)
