Who Is Felix Sater, and Why Is Donald Trump So Afraid of Him?

This mob-linked operator and ex-con could be the key to the Russiagate investigation.

Trump review leans toward proposing mini-nuke

It would be a major reversal from the Obama administration, which sought to limit reliance on nuclear arms.

Thanks Pain. The Firtash connection might prove very interesting.

This is horrible and looks like Kamela was spot on to press him about inclusion.

I, too, casually arrange photographs of my 100 children to face outwards so I can only see the backs of frames.

And there is now an Obama tartan! Commissioned for his trip to Edinburgh.

It's a really smart one. I'm jealous.Grin

Any suggestions for a Trump tartan? Grin

Something like orange and gold. Lots of white too.

TheNorthWestPawsage · 09/09/2017 18:51

Yes McTrump tartan! The best and bigliest tartan ever. Tho' I guess he already has a tartan through his mother's lineage? But it won't be a TRUMP tartan... so dismissable.

badbadhusky · 09/09/2017 18:59

Meanwhile, Obama does what Obama does best

More leadership evident in that 1 min clip than the last 9 months of Trump's presidency...

lionheart · 09/09/2017 19:27

Trump will be livid. Does he or his family have a tartan already?

badbadhusky · 09/09/2017 19:29

Trump will be livid. Does he or his family have a tartan already?

You're so right, a stripe of puce (livid) and some green (envy) in the Trump tartan as well as gold, orange and lots of white.

OuaisMaisBon · 09/09/2017 19:30

Trump tartan

badbadhusky · 09/09/2017 19:36

Obama's is nicer. Much nicer. Grin

lionheart · 09/09/2017 20:08

He'd look a picture if he had that made up into some golfing trews.

SenecaFalls · 09/09/2017 20:27

Y'all do know that Trump is half-Scottish, right?

badbadhusky · 09/09/2017 20:31

Yeah, sorry Seneca. But for God's sake, don't send him back DACA-style.

lionheart · 09/09/2017 20:32

Yep. Smile
