Lindsey Graham Goes From Donald Trump's A 'Jackass' To Full MAGA | The B...

Wnhen asked about Trumps comments, Bette replied: "I am pleased to report that I am quite happy with the fact that I provoked this presidential response,  most especially since all Americans are hated by Trump, if you don't like him he curses you, if you like him he screws you!" Hahaha...[of course she never said that... yet! lol]

Representative Rashida Tlaib Unveils Bold New Policy For America's Poor ...

They didn't mind bailouts to big businesses.  Not all people are ambitious or money hungry, there are people who are satisfied just to raise their children and guess what?  The nation needs those people just as much, if not more than anyone else.  Or has anyone noticed that as the costs of living rises the birth rates fall?  That says that most people are responsible and will not bring children into the world unless and until they feel they can live up to the responsibilities it entails.  This happens around the world,  it's not just some strange phenomenon restricted to the U.S..  The fact is that it's always that next generation that produces the most for the nation,  not the one managing things now because they're largely satisfied with the status quo. 



Of course when we did have that old "welfare state", the reality was that no one really wanted to be on welfare, but there were few if any ways off.  Nor should you believe that blacks were the only ones who suffered this problem,  most of the people on welfare were white.  At least blacks had an excuse; they were discriminated against.  Some sociologist needs to illuminate the how and why's of "trailer trash","crackers" and other poor whites, often known only by the pejoratives that followed them.

The New 'I' Word: Imprisonment | Deadline | MSNBC

Right, but giving unqualified people high security clearances, giving Russians daily briefings and campaign polling data, while welcoming Russian efforts to help them defeat an American challenger, there's nothing wrong with all of that?  Trump is a sad joke who needs to be imprisoned for undermining our nations unity and trying to revoke the U.S. Constitution, you know, that document, which, when observed, protects all of our rights to be free of rampant and idiosyncratic government intrusion and manipulations.  Whoever you may be, my guess is you don't really want the government to have the power to operate death camps, do you?  Well, a government without checks and balances can do whatever it wishes. We knew that when our founding fathers lived under the auspices of the Merry ol' King of England. If you don't know about that, google for it,  I'm sure there's a video on youtube.com that you can watch, about it.

Doctor With Dubious Past Decided On Unnecessary Pelvic Exam Rule | Rache...

This is a Republican thing right? I mean does anyone remember Christy Todd Whitman and Rudy Ghouliani and their "The air is safe to breathe", just to open the stock market back on 9/11?  They have a history of killing people for profits, why doesn't anyone catch on?

Arrest Calls As Donald Trump 'Prison' Debate Erupts On The Left | The Be...

Again: Politics differ from law enforcement because the rules are not written but felt!  In law enforcement you follow already codified laws.  In politics you must have the agreement of the diverse parties to write law and/or sanction "offenders".  Riding roughshod over the opposition works, in politics, only when the issues are small, esoteric and hard to create populous interest.  When the issues are large and at hot contest,  you must be extremely careful,  if -- and only if -- you are trying to preserve a democratic republic. Otherwise you are fomenting for dictatorship and risking civil war. 

History has a lesson for Americans and that is that dictatorships are not difficult to create,  all you need is to have people at odds with one another and for one side to get the upper hand.  So, while all these moral arguments can be made about how Trump and his cohorts should be resoundingly impunned and punished "now or never", to do so now,  would simply be accessing the current powers of one party over the other.  That "breaks the dam" of democracy and the republic,  things begin rolling downhill from there.  America is and has been made "great" because it is a land governed by debate and persuasion,  and not by the heavy hand of popular rule.  A dictator may be popular and still be a dictator.  So too, a president may be unpopular and still be president. 

Pelosi is saying what the Republicans already know, a free country, and therefore their own positions, require that both sides come together or everyone fails.  Remember the vote to strike down the filibuster?  Did you note that the Republicans paid careful attention to the fact that they might very well need that rule, if they should be out of power?  Well,  eventually they will see that by not holding this President accountable, they might just as well forget about everything they stand for.  Because once they create an imperial President,  no one can stop insanity and the eventual carnage that will ensue.  The Congress and the Courts all become mere "rubber stamps".  That's what keeps the Courts from allowing unitarian rule.  No matter how the courts are stacked, they realize that they must either jealously guard their own powers or become mere useless "rubber stamps".  The same will happen to the Congress, but it takes both parties working together or it cannot be practically done.  Not that it cannot be done, but that it cannot be done and have the desired effect of preserving the Democratic Republic.  Thus they will all suffer a severe loss of power and status and practically everything else they've worked for as the regime changes for the worse. 

President Donald Trump Measures Up To The Moment In Speech | Morning Joe...

After all his insanity, venom spewing and lies, he finally gives a speech where he sticks to the prepared text.  I'd say that's not a sign that he's become presidential, but rather it's a sign that he's become petrified, scared and terrified, knowing that a mistake here could have consequences he'd rather not deal with at all.  His advisors were also equally terrified and it's probably their terror that infected him.  My guess is that, they were edging towards the door each time Trump offered a suggestion or when they thought he might go off script.  He knew it was serious when his staff was threatening to run like hell if he didn't go straight down the line.  That's because nothing else but sheer terror has ever stopped him before.  

Report: Pelosi told Democrats she wants Trump in prison

Yes, we need to jail him to send a message, loudly and clearly to future Presidents for all time, that America will not tolerate imperial presidents!  Trump is in violation of his oath of office and he's shredding the U.S. Constitution that special code at law, that gives us our rights to be free of abuses of power by a would be tyrant.

Despite Donald Trump's Promises, Midwest Jobs Leave For Mexico | All In ...

Trump is the product of a failing educational system.  Had these people been taught how to think critically and not to trust single source news,  they would have easily figured out that someone without political skills would not be able to deliver on his vast array of promises.  Things would have gotten even worse when they discovered that Trump was a liar. A collection of ignorance, hate, Russian interference and stupidity put Trump in office.

The Senate Intelligence Committee found evidence of IMPEACHMENT of TRUMP...

Trump is no fan of Democratic Republics, or democracies,  he is a fan of dictatorships because that's all he understands. Because that's all a small mind can understand is simplest most ancient form of governance.

Senators Attempt To Block Trump On Saudi Weapons Sales | Morning Joe | M...

Nuclear Proliferation anyone? This is sure to make America great, right? Giving nuclear tech to murderous dictatorships.  Then the Saudi's can transfer nuclear weapons to Palistine, right?  Oh what a merry world Trump will make.

So, Trump has, in effect, reduced farmers to being welfare recipients.  How's that for making America great?

Dem Rep: Mueller Must Testify 'Immediately,' Will Be Subpoenaed | The Be...

Unfortunately impeachment really is a political thing.  "Moral High ground", etc., and other ideological arguments do not hold anymore than there is the consensus sufficient to enforce the law. This is where Germany screwed up.  They continued to observe the law, even as the laws were being used to change what was to be observed.  It was the emotions being driven against any opposition, that allowed Hitler to ignore any laws that should have constrained him and the people were so blind, in favor of their leader, that they simply forgot that they ever had a republic.

Like the civil war before, if we cannot get the Republicans to join in the support of the legal system we have, over the partisan ideals of their leader, then the "tree of liberty", either becomes a blood drinking vampire again, or we become a dictatorship.  When you have a political problem you must employ political means to achieve the goal.  In this case "the goal" is to preserve the republic, not to simply oust the President.  The reason the President must be removed from office is; he no longer supports or observes the U.S. Constitution and will destroy anything that he doesn't like.  We cannot have a president like this and still remain a free country.

Prosecutors want to move Paul Manafort to Rikers Island

He'll be alright in  segregation.  This is much ado about nothing.

Trump Adviser Says Mexico Would Pay For New Tariffs. He's Wrong. You Wou...

This is the kind of policy you'd expect to see in comedies.  It's classic Marx brothers stick and what a routine it would be on film you'd laugh for days.  Problem is this is not a comedy.

Erin Burnett: Kushner has his job for one reason

In "The H dorrible Trump Presidency 5" page (at the top of the home page here) you will see that I've added a video where, a journalist has information that Kusner told MBZ that he should have the entire Kashogi murder team killed. Wow, that's an American official? If we don't get these people, not just out of office, but securely locked up in jail for very long periods of time, then it is us who is the laughingstock of the world.

Child Porn Charges For Donald Trump-Tied Mueller Witness Raise Questions...



You remember Qatar, the country that Trump Jr. had his 1.2 billion dollar loan application rejected, until Trump's visit to Saudi Arabia where he berated Qatar for being a terrorist supporter. They subsequently reconsidered and gave Trump Jr. the 1.2 billion dollar loan he needed to bail out his losing investment in 666 Fifth Avenue. See anything wrong there?

Fox host tears into Trump administration for hiding USS John McCain

The entire Trump administration is full of pathological liars. It's high time they give us a break.

Medical Devices: Last Week Tonight with John Oliver (HBO)



Why rely on "big government" eh? We can all do our own product testing at home. Hahaha, go ahead and drown a shrunken government in a bathtub,  corporate America will love you so keep voting for small government conservatives.  In fact, I'm pretty sure Trump has already gone to work on the FDA, appointing someone like Carson or DeVos to not do the job.

Hahaha, what a joke Trump has become on the world stage. So sad.

Republicans Have Now Taken The Lead On Impeaching Trump


There is a very good reason the Democrats couldn't do it, that reason is; Republican control of the Senate.  A political exercise like an impeachment, which risks being called a partisan effort without merit and which cannot "convict" the President,  gives him the "moral high ground".  All of which calculations are playing out on a field where a good portion of the nation is not paying attention to truth and facts, but are allowing themselves to be swayed by mere emotional pleadings and rhetoric.

Thus, the only rational way to both bring the nation back together and convince the Republicans highly charged and partisan following,  without further polarizing the electorate, or running the risks of inciting more partisan fighting,  was to try to provoke the republican base to reject Trump on their own.  That means, since no amount of reasoning,  no amount of failure, was turning Trumpists away from him, it had to be done by Republicans. 

It's a mistake to paint this as "us against them" or who is winning or losing, it is the division that we are fighting against for the survival of our democratic republic.  

Cooper: Why is Trump now so angry over Mueller?

Republicans are trying to destroy the democratic republic by turning it into a dictatorship.  They can succeed if we the people let them.  It's beginning to look like that "tree of liberty" will have to be refreshed with the "blood" of patriots as the founding fathers predicted.
