Wonder what happened that Chafednutz is now turning on Trump, after protecting him for so long. Somebody has something on him.

Big trouble with a capital T! Love it. Now let’s move on up the ladder to the big orange blob.

And what’s happened to Jasoninthehouse? Amazing turnaround. Just, um, amazing.

Uhm didn’t we know that Flynn, former Army officer, took money from Russian TV and Turkey like 4 weeks ago? “Jason do you really read that slowly?”

Again why was it the Obama administration’s job to vet candidates for Trump? Where/What was Mike (holier than thou) Pence as head of the Trump Transition Team?

He might not fault the Trump administration for the complete lack of vetting of Flynn and the rest of the deplorables in this administration, but others won’t be so forgiving.

I don’t know. Life has become so hard lately it just feels dangerous and letdown-genic to get excited because Chaffetz says Flynn is in Big Trouble Mister. I’m kind of in an Indictments or GTFO place right now. I suppose it’s a step in the right direction. Sorry to be a big Eeyore about it. : (

How is it that Mr. Benghazi (aka BENGHAZI!!!) has thrown in the towel in investigating Flynn? Why should the matter become an administrative one for DOD? Sounds to me like more cover-up. If the matter is adjudicated administratively by the Trump-led DOD it gets “lost” in the bureaucracy, that Trump decides it’s a confidential matter and we never hear about ir again.

But back to Clinton’s e-mails and the years worth of “related issues” to be investigated…

I’m at my daughter’s in Berkeley for 2 weeks. Just saw that Coulter is going to speak at Sproul Plaza, famous for many protests over the years.

This has disaster written all over it.

Intense disappointment—he was looking at four years of big fun torturing Hillary some more—can really cause an upheaval with people. He might be feeling all sulky and ready for some investigatory kicks and he doesn’t care who of anymore, he’ll just do some investigatoring and let the chips fall where they may! Hell yeah! Gonna scratch that itch till he feel bettah! You really never know. People are strange, I swear.

I actually started laughing at “…certainly I wouldn’t fault the the Trump administration”.

“I do have some questions for the DIA,” Chaffetz said, referring to the Defense Intelligence Agency. “But certainly I wouldn’t fault the Trump administration.”

Of COURSE you wouldn’t… sigh

It will be interesting to hear Sally Yates’ testimony in early May. If she also told the transition team that the investigation into Flynn’s activities with foreign governments included undisclosed payments then this whole “gee whiz, we didn’t know we was supposed to be doing the vetting, too” argument goes out the window.

You gotta remember that PP is only about one hundred days into a new administration after eight years of a D president (who is black!!!). Republicans should still be taking numbers to decide who gets the rapture of fellating him next. The best many can do is say, “Aw, nah, the president didn’t know. He was tricked!” “I was catfished” is not really a good defense in politics. Still, Republicans are backing away slowly.

So the President hires a National Security Advisor who is on the payroll of a hostile government and gives him access to our most sensitive intelligence.

Where is the outrage from Republicans? Where?

And remember this happened just a week after Trump took office:

The Russians got their money’s worth, but why isn’t anybody else connecting the dots?

It’s hard to watch how slowly this all develops in the MSM and general public for those of us who read up on this stuff much more deeply. I just took a break from patio gardening and popped on the TV and the Gen. Flynn news and thought to myself, shit…I’m so way far ahead of this shit Flynn seems like chapter one and I’m on chapter 10 in this horror story. Patience is running thin for me too, but all we can do is watch and hope it picks up speed. I believe it will but damn…hurry the fuck up.
