#BannonIndicted He pleaded not guilty. Bond set at $5 million with $1.75 million cash or property to secure with 2 co-signers. Bannon surrenders travel documents. Not allowed to raise/move money from “We Build The Wall.”

Deplorables:

'WASHINGTON — In early May 2018, after weeks of phone calls and private meetings, 11 of the president's most senior advisers were called to the White House Situation Room where they were asked, by a show-of-hands vote, to decide the fate of thousands of migrant parents and their children, according to two officials who were there.

Trump's senior adviser, Stephen Miller, led the meeting and, according to the two officials, he was angry at what he saw as defiance by Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen.'

Bannon. YES.

I have seen footage of DonTrump Jr shaking Bannon's hand and saying his father approved of the GoFund Build the Wall.

I will try and find it and link it.

Deary me. He's now saying Joe Biden wasn't born where he said he was.

Here we go again...

El Paso story where DJT Jr turns up to praise wall built by Bannon money.

This sums up for me why this utterly contemptuous man is unequal to the the position of POTUS and must be voted out.

Trump on fire assistance to California: "Maybe we're just gonna have to make them pay for it, because they don't listen to us."

Very pleased to see that the man pulling the strings - at least initially and for a good while through the Trump's first year in office - has been arrested. I had a look on Breitbart and it was strange to see that even though these are the people that had targeted and ripped off, in the main they are still defending Bannon.

Oh. My. GOD!!!

A 'birther conspiracy' about whether or not someone was born in the city they were born in. And he 'abandoned' Scranton? Yeah, he MOVED as a CHILD!! He's really clutching at straws.

Guess I'll have to tell DC1 he wasn't born where he was born. There was no hospital in our town so he was born one town over.

Come to think of it, I guess I wasn't born where I was born for the same reason!

Wonder where DS1 and I were born then? And existentially speaking then....were we really born at all??

As far as Bannon, I'll take my Schadenfreude with a side order of bacon, please.

Delicious.

'The USPS: Carrying your mail and carrying out justice.'

Across I so adore bacon.

This is awful.

That DeJoy promising he won't do anything else is just too late. It looks like the damage has been done.

Some clips of Julia Louis-Dreyfuss who opened/MC'd 4th night of Dem Convention.

Another endorsement (from a boy called Brayden):

According to Wikipedia
Trump was born on June 14, 1946, at Jamaica Hospital in the borough of Queens, New York City
So can we starter a birther rumour that Trump was born in Jamaica?

!!!

This sounds a bit ominous doesn't it? Is this normal practice?

Trump says he'll send law enforcement officials to monitor voting in November
The president told Fox News’ Sean Hannity on Thursday that he intends to deploy law enforcement officials to monitor polling locations on November 3 for potential fraud. Trump’s telephone interview coincided with the fourth and final night of the Democratic National Convention, during which Joe Biden accepted his party’s nomination for president.

Does anyone ever mention that the reason Joe Biden sometimes seems to get a bit confused when he's public speaking is almost certainly nothing to do with senility and a lot to do with still having to strive against his stutter? They ought to, every time the "Joe's old, he's confused" guff gets wheeled out as a smokescreen over Trump's increasingly strange vocal mannerisms.

How are the (probably anonymous) law enforcement officials going to check for fraud? Tell everyone of colour they are not allowed to vote, maybe?

Naughty. But nice.

That makes perfect sense, and making his stammer more widely known can only be a good thing. My sister's husband has a stammer which persists at the age of 65. He is intellectually brilliant and friendly but comes across as hesitant

Surely Americans of all political persuasion will never forgive trump for his deliberate act of Sabotage against the USPS
Isn't it iconic, isn't it part of what it means to be American?
Trump is a vandal
