Hypocrisy is the water that he swims in

Let's hope he drowns.

'The White House has been briefed on the Mueller report and "there is significant concern on the president's team about what will be in this report," and "what worries them most is what Don McGahn told the special counsel," @jonkarl reports on @ThisWeekABC.' abcn.ws/2VyOgpQ

McGahn spoke to SC for more than 30 hours? Shock

Oh Brother.

From lionheart's ABC News link, Barr stated on 9 Apr that he'd release his redacted version of the Mueller report "within a week".

cozietoesie · 14/04/2019 18:53

He changed his mind. Grin

'Many of President Donald Trump’s tweets backfire, but not his tweet attack on U.S. Representative Ilhan Omar. That one tweet succeeded to perfection. Trump wishes to make Omar the face of the Democratic Party heading into the 2020 elections—and now he has provoked Democrats to comply.'

Got a few days yet, cozie!

TheNorthWestPawsage · 14/04/2019 19:53

That's rich coming from SHS - who got a degree in political science and communications from that "well-known Ivy League establishment" - Ouachita Baptist University! Over 160 members of Congress have law degrees and others have MBAs and so on.

lionheart · 14/04/2019 19:59

Good for her ... Smile

cozietoesie · 14/04/2019 21:40

Just wait, Perking! Grin

cozietoesie · 14/04/2019 21:41

Yes. Good for her. Smile

TheNorthWestPawsage · 14/04/2019 22:05

So jealous Rousette! I bet it's an amazing atmosphere in the O2. Let us know what your daughter thought of it. Smile

Roussette · 14/04/2019 22:41

Yes, me too NorthWest. She'd tried to get tickets and couldn't, then one of her work friends had someone drop out, so she's lucky. Other DD loves Michelle and is v jealous!

TheNorthWestPawsage · 14/04/2019 23:03

Re lionheart's Guardian link above - I think there are definite parallels between the Fox brain stories and what seem to be comparable 'Brexit brain' stories here in the UK. Thankfully, DH's family and friends in the US are seemingly immune to Fox's 'charms'. I would find it very difficult to deal with any of DH's family if they were to succumb in the slightest to the Fox and Trump mantra.

A ridiculous tweet from Seb Gorka. (remember him? given marching orders from the WH?) He’s still stirring plenty of extreme right-wing garbage along with some questionable friends. The problem is they do have reach and followers. So even if their statements make little sense or aren’t backed up with genuine sources, it doesn’t matter. The statements will be repeated verbatim.

The Left has normalized violence.

Congratulations to @realDonaldTrump
for convincing the Democrats to side against America on the issue of 9/11.

Well, technically they always side with America's enemies, but the president has a unique ability to get them to say it out loud.

DD texted saying Michelle was really funny, lots of brilliant stories and she loved it.

Is it April 1st???

The Trump administration is proposing to monitor the social media accounts of veterans, and if the veterans are “too happy” their disability pensions for PTSD will be reduced. What a fucking joke.

When you have Trump-Russia laid out like this it is something to behold:

Highlights from Timothy Snyder's 'The Road to Unfreedom.' Shock

'Why we do think that Mr. Trump owes a debt to Mr. Putin? Here are fifty reasons. All of the facts are a matter of public record, and all of the sources can be found in my book The Road to Unfreedom.'
