I'm not shocked by anything he does. Obviously it is all horrifying & shocking but none of it surprises me.

Thank you @Spandauer

I've been a bit absent with real life taking over, but catching up when I can. These threads are my go-to place to come when I want sensible comments 🙂

Thanks @Spandauer

Just when you think that orange dribbling excuse of a human can stoop no lower.

When it comes to trumpet, I won't be wasting time, fine wine or energy. Though I may.

Limeys. 🍋🤣

Like they'll give a shit.

Thank you for the new thread, @Spandauer, back to the bad old days of one or more a week, sadly.. As many others have said, I did prefer the calm times of Biden where we could carry on our daily lives without waking up every morning in fear of what crime the current US President had committed overnight.
In the hope of raising spirits, this is the latest report from Greece today:

Is it right that Robert Mueller has died and Trump has actually said 'I'm glad he's dead'

I can't google, it's too depressing.

Unfortunately yes.

Yes, exactly correct.

Robert Mueller, ex-FBI chief who led Trump-Russia investigation, dies at 81

Yes he did.

In case anyone tries to push MAGA's false claims that Russian interference in the 2016 election was a hoax or that the Mueller report exonerated Trump:

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c8dlj6gv0q6o
The investigation resulted in multiple indictments and plea deals with former Trump campaign manager Paul Manafort, as well as national security advisor Michael Flynn.
In the end, the 448-page "Mueller report" was thorough but ultimately inconclusive. It found that Russia interfered in the 2016 election in a "sweeping and systemic fashion", but did not establish that members of the Trump campaign conspired or coordinated in these activities.
His findings noted: "while this report does not conclude that the president committed a crime, it also does not exonerate him".

@Spandauer on a meme you posted at the end of the last thread it said about a guy who has never driven a car... What is that about please?

And in case anyone wishes to refresh their memory on the Mueller report's full contents, it's downloadable from here:

Report on the Investigation into Russian Interference in the 2016 Presidential Election (Mueller Report)

Category: Executive Agency Publications
Collection: Additional Government Publications
Publication Name: Independent Counsel Investigations
SuDoc Class Number: J 1.128:R 92
Date Issued: April 18, 2019

The one PDF contains both Volume I & Volume II of the report. The prose is very readable and clear.

I'd have told the reporter to hush! The more MAGAts that think stupid things about a stupid man the better!

I wonder how many magas that were threatening to get people who said Charlie Kirk reaped what he sowed, will be calling out Trump for his post which is so much worse?

My best guess- zero

RIP Mr Mueller.

He was considered a straight-shooting public servant with a high degree of integrity. Wish we had more like him these days.

Says all we need to know

How can anyone say someone is glad a person is dead??.

You can be across the divide but still have sympathy

Remember on the other thread, posters were coming over to berate us for not mourning enough? I bet they stay silent.

When Scrotus pops his nasty clogs I'll be dancing in the street and singing:

Well, there are just some people who ask for that.

See my post above.

It was referring to Trump but I don't think it's true that Trump has never driven a car as I believe he did used to have a Rolls Royce at one time. However presidents are normally 'forbidden' from driving themselves (even after they leave office) due to security logistics. So I guess whoever made the meme was being 'economical' with the truth...

Thanks for the thread.

Those Iranian missiles that have been destroyed have just hit 2 towns in south Israel.

I’m guessing that the winding down plan is about to be reversed and things are about to get significantly worse.
