Wonder if its related to this: “A lot of us are hearing similar chatter-that a certain US ally has a ‘compromising’ tape of Trump and is debating if/when/how to release it.”

As Teh Rick Wilson noted: Everything Tr*ump touches dies.

It is quite the sight to see all these allegedly highly regarded men, one by one, get exposed as either craven opportunists, or at least not the “men of integrity and blah blah blah”. They’re all just shitty people who want to prove those high praises to have been wrong.

There is no political calculation going on here. There is no secret desire to save X department and its employees from the staggeringly unfit, unqualified, incompetent scumbag in the Offal Office. They are not playing 12-dimensional chess.

They’re just assholes and they always have been.

I think this might be about the Russian lobbyist who claimed, yesterday, that he had two dinners with Sessions… and Sessions then ordered his underling to “clean that shit up.”

Mmm, good call.

Anonymous sources report that Donnie is the greatest American President, ever?

When the information given by these anonymous sources starts turning out to be incorrect, then he’s got a legitimate case to make. But, for the most part, they’ve been spot on.

How to say “Fake news!” in legalese, preemptively.

It is an odd statement for him to make because he knows the major media organizations know their sources.

Right, because look at all the times that anonymous sources were wrong.

“An anonymous Justice Department official told a CNN reporter Friday morning that Trump did not order Rosenstein to issue the statement on anonymous sources.”

One of the most beautiful sentences I’ve read about this entire affair.

Perhaps PM May. She’s desperately trying to hold on to power. Mebbe release the tape and get some breathing room.

Exactly. I hardly think WashPo or NYT is being sloppy on this story.

Though they don’t deserve to, it looks like Chris Christie and Rudy Giuliani both dodged a bullet, could it be that they both were US Attorneys at one time?

I am being investigated for firing the FBI Director by the man who told me to fire the FBI Director!

Wut? Unless I’m missing something, either Trump is directly pointing the finger at Rosenstein, or he’s saying that Mueller told him to fire Comey.

The person who told Trump to do it.

Was that a Democrat? Oh, a Republican.

Is there anybody Trump is not at war with? Besides Russia?

Orange Pustule Hitler ordered Dignity Wraith Rosenstein to say something far worse but he, Rosenstein, couldn’t go there and instead put out this silly POS.
