As the armada appears in waters nowhere near where it was said to be, Trump blusters on in his usual dignified, courtly manner. Easter weekend had us worried about nuclear strikes; DT put a fair bit of work into his golf swing. Business as usual! Carry on, everyone!

If you happen to come across any Dem activists, offer congratulations for their efforts in Georgia. More of that is needed.

Lweji Think Sessions is figuring if he doesn't hire new ones there won't be any prosecutors available to prosecute Trump et al when the shit hits the fan?

I will cozie. That election gave a lot of us here some hope that we'll be able to 'flip' our own district. We haven't had a strong candidate in the last two elections. Hopefully we'll have one this time round.

That is scary because if she's successful, it'll be hard to reverse the changes Sad

I see the US is now at Defcon 4. It may have been for a few days of course - I've only just noticed.

cozietoesie · 19/04/2017 16:33

Sorry. That's only the DefCon warning site that I'm quoting.

catgirl1976 · 19/04/2017 16:46

Defcon 4 is low. I thought it would be higher.

cozietoesie · 19/04/2017 17:00

Sorry. I shouldn't have mentioned it.

I guess that explains why he is not running again when his term is up.

So no official statement yet on O'Reilly?

Outside the box idea; just have the president host the 8pm hour on Fox. I think he'd enjoy it more than presidenting.

War, war, war they're obsessed with the idea of it.
Can't they just all play a game of Risk instead? Or Call of Duty?
45 & his sidekicks could even set up a Wishful War League (like Fantasy Football league/manager.)

(Risk is a board game, if you aren't aware of it.)

Turkish Election Board rejects ALL referendum complaints. Some were about ballots with over 100% turnout so clearly had merit. Farce.

White House @PressSec says Trump was right to say ships were “heading” toward North Korea because it will, eventually.

cozietoesie · 19/04/2017 18:26

Please tell me he didn't actually say that?
