Why is it taking so long?’: Lindsey Graham calls out Trump for delay in providing ‘wiretap’ proof

For Trump Tower to have been surveilled in any way by the federal government, Graham said, there would have to be a warrant, which would mean a judge found probably cause of a crime or that a target of surveillance had been deemed to be an agent of a foreign government.

“I don’t think there’s a warrant,” Graham said, “but I wish they’d tell me one way or the other.”

Trump’s White House is reportedly in turmoil as competing players vie to foist their agenda to the top of the president’s list of priorities.

“(E)veryone has become paranoid and suspicious,” said one aide to Politico.

Or Trump was deceived by the RWNJ press to believe a lie? Or Trump was high on his own propaganda and wanted to spread the story, but was too stupid to allow the RWNJ press to do it's job?
 
Dan Rather sees through Trump tax return ‘smoke screen’ as distraction from Russia and health care debacle

Legendary journalist and former CBS News anchor Dan Rather took a look at the surprising leak of the first two pages of President Donald Trump’s 2005 tax returns and declared it more of “a smoke screen” than “a smoking gun.”

The morning after MSNBC host Rachel Maddow hyped up a reveal of Trump’s taxes –with some calling it the “Holy Grail” of Trump financial information — Rather stated on Facebook there was no “smoking gun,” in the leaked documents and the leak was intentional.

“Well the Donald Trump tax returns released last night seem more smokescreen than smoking gun. What started with suspicion of what was in them has now becomes suspicion of whether the Trump team leaked them as a diversion,” Rather wrote.

He then continued, “It bears reminding that we still haven’t seen any detailed filings for Mr. Trump from recent years, but in my reporter’s estimation, as important as that is, there are bigger stories to which we need to be devoting attention.”
 
Wiretap covers a lot of different things’: Trump tries to walk back phone tapping claim on Fox

The president will also comment on his allegations that former President Barack Obama wiretapped Trump Tower ahead of the election, in an attempt to walk back his phone tapping claim.

“Wiretap covers a lot of different things,” Trump tells Carlson. “I think you’re going to find some very interesting items coming to the forefront over the next 2 weeks.”

Oh I'll bet we haven't see anything yet!:eek:
 
New Travel Ban Blocked ha ha ha ha ha

It is essentially religious discrimination, HA!

US District Court Judge Derrick Watson concluded that the new executive order still failed to pass legal muster.

"The illogic of the Government's contentions is palpable. The notion that one can demonstrate animus toward any group of people only by targeting all of them at once is fundamentally flawed," Watson wrote.

"Equally flawed is the notion that the Executive Order cannot be found to have targeted Islam because it applies to all individuals in the six referenced countries," Watson added. "It is undisputed, using the primary source upon which the Government itself relies, that these six countries have overwhelmingly Muslim populations that range from 90.7% to 99.8%."

"It would therefore be no paradigmatic leap to conclude that targeting these countries likewise targets Islam," Watson added. "Certainly, it would be inappropriate to conclude, as the Government does, that it does not."
 
‘No such wiretap existed’: Paul Ryan slams the door on Trump’s Obama wiretap conspiracy

"Bovine excrement," was not the phrase he used.:eek:

While taking questions from reporters on Thursday, House Speaker Paul Ryan (R-WI) slammed the door on President Donald Trump’s theory that former President Barack Obama wiretapped Trump Tower.

“The intelligence committees — in their continuing, ongoing, and widening investigation into all things Russia — got to the bottom, at least so far with respect to our intelligence community, that no such wiretap existed,” said Ryan.

Ryan was then asked by a reporter about Trump’s interview with Fox News’s Tucker Carlson in which the president insisted that the wiretap had occurred.
 
Trump leaked classified CIA intel to Tucker Carlson on live TV: ranking House intel member

It's only Thursday of Weak Eight and Trump is doubling down on the leaking he's doing!

Pres. Donald Trump either leaked classified intelligence information to the world or told another whopping fib on Tucker Carlson’s Fox News show Wednesday when he said that the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA)’s servers were hacked under Pres. Barack Obama.

TheHill.com reported that Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) said in a press release, “In his effort to once again blame Obama, the President appeared to have discussed something that, if true and accurate, would otherwise be considered classified information.”

“I just want people to know, the CIA was hacked, and a lot of things taken — that was during the Obama years,”
claimed Trump Wednesday night. “That was not during us. That was during the Obama situation. Mike Pompeo is there now doing a fantastic job.”
 
Irish PM shames Trump with stirring tribute to immigrants – as the president stands right next to him

Since no one brought it up.

Irish Prime Minister Enda Kenny used his time spent at the White House on St. Patrick’s Day to issue a subtle rebuke to President Donald Trump’s immigration policies.

Speaking at the White House with Trump standing right next to him, Kenny relayed the long history of Irish immigrants who came to America and thrived there, despite being resented and hated by many.

“It’s fitting that we gather here each year to celebrate St. Patrick and his legacy,” Kenny said. “He, too, was an immigrant. And even though he is, of course, the patron saint of Ireland, for many people around the globe, he is also the symbol of — indeed, the patron of — immigrants.”

Trump missed the irony.;)
 
WATCH: Stephen Colbert mocks Trump’s Irish proverb blunder: ‘Irish, Nigerian it’s an honest mistake’

Late Show host, Stephen Colbert, took time on Friday night to wish everyone a happy St. Patrick’s Day, and particularly President Donald Trump, who celebrated by reading an Irish proverb during his visit with Irish Prime Minister Enda Kenny.

Colbert pointed out that the proverb read by the president was, in fact, not Irish. He played the clip of Trump reading his favorite Irish proverb and said, “That’s very nice, that’s a very sweet thought. Only problem — Trump’s favorite Irish proverb is not a proverb, it’s a poem and it’s not from Ireland, it’s written by a Nigerian poet named Albashir Alhasssan.”

“I’m surprised Trump even allowed that poem into the country,” he quipped. “But Irish, Nigerian, it’s an honest mistake. As the Irish say, ‘que sera, sera.'”

Trump even hyped it hard too, but he was WRONG Biggly!
 
Trump Budget Dude Fails To See How ‘Starving’ Is A Bad Thing


The Trump administration’s budget director, Mick Mulvaney, really kicked the New Cruelty into a higher gear in a White House press briefing Thursday, explaining that sure, there may be a lot of things government does that might give you good feels, but don’t really have any demonstrable results. Useless fripperies like Meals on Wheels, let’s say, or after-school nutrition programs for poor kids. These things don’t make a profit or kill our enemies, so what good are they, really?

The alleged human being even spoke at length about how eliminating funding for such wasteful spending was actually a great act of compassion to U.S. taxpayers, none of whom we actually heard chanting “starve the grannies” at Trump rallies, but who will certainly appreciate the small savings from nutritional programs, to be diverted to tax cuts for the wealthy and a $54 billion defense buildup.


Trump has pockets to stuff and needs every Dollar to pay off his contributors. Grannies don't contribute much of anything to Trumpsters. And Kids, Pfft who needs those poor kids?
