Titled with Across in mind

May all the Oaf's problems be big ones, and the events of this week at least be the beginning of the beginning of the end.

Arizona’s Voters Have Spoken and Rendered Joe Arpaio Irrelevant
Maybe, but still, 42,000 of them voted for him. 42,000 wanted this criminal, sadistic racist to represent them in the Senate.

Similar on CNN and Fox, I imagine. A weekend of genuine, widespread remembrance and mourning for most of the US, excluding it's POTUS, who will be roiling with bitterness and grievance.

'This story has been corrected to show that President Donald Trump's upcoming campaign rally in Evansville, Indiana, forced the cancellation of a concert for bagpipe band the Red Hot Chilli Pipers, not the rock band Red Hot Chili Peppers.'

'Under Trump’s policy, roughly 1.8 million people wouldn’t get an automatic pay boost next year, including Border Patrol and ICE agents. ....

' ..... It’s the latest example of the Trump administration’s ongoing battle against government employee unions.
This spring, Trump signed executive orders to make it easier for managers to fire underperforming federal employees and to order the renegotiation of collective bargaining agreements.
This week, a judge struck down key parts of those orders, arguing that Trump exceeded his authority by intentionally seeking to hamstring unions’ ability to negotiate.'

Let's hope they make good and effective use of it:
'The DCCC has bested its total digital fundraising mark from the 2016 election cycle, passing $75.27 million raised with months still to go in the 2018 midterms.
The committee passed the milestone early Tuesday morning, 10 weeks before the polls open on Election Day, a DCCC aide said. It is possible the DCCC could pass $100 million raised online by Nov. 6, since online giving rates grow so rapidly in the final weeks of an election.'

Here it comes, Trump suggesting to his followers anything negative toward him “may have been altered”. Fake audio, fake video will soon be a cover for getting away with anything.

He didn't do it, if he did do it it isn't a crime, if it is a crime he can't be indicted, if he can be indicted he didn't do it. So there. xoxo Rudy

At the risk of this phrase becoming an evergreen tweet, this is astonishingly dangerous. The entire Holt interview is online. It's not altered. He's never claimed that until now. And he's telling people not to believe their own eyes.

That was a fine speech by Joe Biden. I think that he must have loved John McCain very much.

President Donald Trump said Allen Weisselberg, the chief financial officer of the Trump Organization, didn’t betray him when he agreed to cooperate with prosecutors in their investigation into Michael Cohen
Begs the question, what does he have to betray Trumpty with? The Oaf always reveals his consciousness of guilt.

Asked whether he'd comply with a subpoena to answer questions from special counsel Mueller, Trump told Bloomberg he views the Russia probe "as an illegal investigation."
