The Trump-Putin Summit in Helsinki, coming so soon after Trump’s ally-crumbling display in Britain and at the EU, is still sinking in. Let’s just say: he’s in all kinds of shit. All the kompromat.

Absolutely BB. And if you take just the one thing... emoluments, they would be screaming from the rooftops if, for instance, Obama had gone golfing as regularly as 45, and the game was at a property he owned.

And then there's everything else.

mimi yes indeedy. The swamp gets murkier and murkier. I notice he hasn't been shouting 'drain the swamp' any more as he's filled it with his own swamp creatures. It's good to see lock her up has come back to bite him on his expansive arse though...

Sorry, Roussette, I missed it as I've been doing my ostrich impression - where did "lock her up" come back to bite him in the arse?

Roussette · 26/07/2018 10:47

At Lafayette Park (outside WH) where they appear to have a 24 hour demo going on, with mariachi bands, bagpipes etc... they've been shouting 'lock him up' and I think something similar when a Senator was giving a talk somewhere..

Not with you on that student t-shirt apology thing there, ohmymimi? Looks like right-wing pro-Trump discrimination to me.

Two law groups representing the case — the Benbrook Law Group of Sacramento, California and Lynch Conger McLane of Bend, Oregon — pointed out that Liberty High School had allowed one of their own teachers to hang a placard promoting sanctuary cities, areas that promote prolonged residency of illegal aliens and seek to shield them from legal deportation efforts.
Oh, it was quite deliberately goading, Bolleaux, but First Amendment rights cut both ways.

'Republicans are trying to conceal records from 3 of the 5 years Kavanaugh worked in the White House for President Bush. I want to know what exactly is in those papers that they don’t want the American people to see. We won’t stop pushing on this.'

'The man who used a pickax to vandalize President Trump’s star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame this week will reportedly be bailed out by a man who vandalized the star years ago.

Los Angeles Police said that Austin Clay claimed responsibility for vandalizing Trump's star early Wednesday and turned himself in at the Beverly Hills police headquarters later in the day. Clay had called police right after damaging the plaque, according to the Los Angeles Times.'

Ah, gotcha, omymimi, thank you!

Of course Vlad isn't coming for another bilateral. Yet.

ohmymimi · 26/07/2018 13:36

ohmymimi · 26/07/2018 13:47

Word is, cozie, he just ignored the invitation. The old tempt, tease, then freeze routine. Vlad is a bad boyfriend Wink

Slight miscalculation on the part of the WH.

Thanks for those two pics , lion, a much needed laugh!

Blessed are the damn-givers, for they will right-side the world. Let us hope it will be so.

BolleauxtoBankers · 26/07/2018 14:13

Sorry, Roussette - I missed your reply about Lafayette Park - I hadn't realised they were calling "Lock him up" - I just have 36 mariachi bands performing all night outside his bedroom window, in my head, for some reason!
