Oops. lion.

Yes. A forked tongue might be the thing.

While everyone was focused on Mr. Mueller, North Korea fired off some “projectiles”.

I really didn’t think propaganda was the Press Secretary’s job. Isn’t the position supposed to be, I don’t know, more bipartisan? Reporting on what the Government does? Not spreading misinformation and crowing, “You’re wrong, losers!”

Dems, didn’t you learn your lesson? Stop lying. Mueller was just explaining that, generally speaking, a President can be charged after leaving office – not addressing this case. Mueller and DOJ have made clear no more indictments are coming from this investigation.

cozietoesie · 25/07/2019 02:21

Except, as we know, you don't always need an indictment.

TheClaws · 25/07/2019 03:31

Indeed, cozie. And not at this time, for this case.

POTUS is very busy right now thanking all his syncophants and saying he’s completely cleared and how embarrassing it was for the Dems etc. He’s completely ignoring the fact he was not cleared it any at all - far from it. Those syncophants are working overtime on all kinds of media to discredit Mueller and his testimony - like slavering wolves.

Taken from this article...

eu.usatoday.com/story/opinion/2019/07/24/mueller-testimony-trump-misconduct-points-to-impeachment-column/1817564001/

And even though the facts came out at the hearing in halting fashion, they were devastating. Among them:

►Mueller’s investigation did not exonerate President Donald Trump

►Russian interference was not a hoax and the investigation was not a witch hunt

►Russia interfered in our election in sweeping and systematic fashion

►Russia worked to benefit Trump as a candidate in the 2016 presidential election

►Trump developed messaging strategies around the release of stolen emails

►Trump lied and directed others to lie to hide those facts

Jeffrey Epstein 'found semi-conscious' in prison cell
www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-49108627

The 66-year-old, who is awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges, was reportedly found sprawled on the floor with injuries to his neck on Wednesday.

Roussette · 25/07/2019 10:00

Prison doesn't treat paedophiles too kindly. I read on Twitter he wants to be moved to another prison and staged this. Hasten to add, I have no idea how true this is.

PerkingFaintly · 25/07/2019 10:07

I really want him to stand trial though.

For many reasons.

Whosorrynow · 25/07/2019 10:23

That's looking like a suicide attempt from Epstein although I suppose it could be staged?
As for Meuller, I thought he looked as if someone had slipped him something beforehand, he looked like a confused old man who had forgotten to put his teeth in

Roussette · 25/07/2019 10:36

Mueller has a slight hearing problem. Certainly not helped by Repubs talking indicipherably very fast and not letting him answer.

Between someone trying to silence him (or sending him a message) and other inmates/guards not treating paedophiles kindly, via suicide attempt or staged, who knows?

Whosorrynow · 25/07/2019 12:40

Jeff is in a very dicey situation, hordes of very powerful very wealthy people are strongly incentivised to make him shut the fuck up

Whosorrynow · 25/07/2019 12:42

Oh Jeff your chickens are coming home to roost, what a massive flock they are
Did you think there would never be a reckoning did you think you could do a Jimmy savile and die quietly in your bed with your fingers crossed before everyone found out

Whosorrynow · 25/07/2019 13:01

Trump has degraded and anti-intellectualised the USA such that all is now in black and white simplistic terms
the nuances subtleties and complexities of the Meuller report have nowhere to land

lionheart · 25/07/2019 13:09

A 'last minute audio visual mistake'.

Woah he's trying to use symbolism to reprogram our unconscious minds, conflating and confusing the symbols for Russia and the USA
Tinfoil hat alert 😲

Bwah ha ha ha ha! Looks like Scrotus and Turning Point got well 'punked'. Mistake, my eye! Good on whoever did this.

"45 is a puppet", indeed!

Thanks for cheering up my morning!

Heads will roll. Or bodies will be thrown out of windows.

Occasionally, and sadly, KAC crawls out of her sewer to deliver pearlers like this.
