There you go again with those facts and truth and reality and other deceptively clever ways to try to bully and intimidate the president and his sycophants & enablers.

I hope they shave his hair off when he’s arrested. At least he’ll finally look like what he is: a skin-head.

…Someone might want to let the IG know how telling an alternative truth from the one trump has already stated worked out for the weather folks…

This brings to mind Woody Allen finding Marshall McLuhan conveniently standing behind a lobby card and bringing him out to directly refute a ticket-line blowhard. Of course in the film Allen’s character is lamenting ‘If only life could be so easy…’. Well, guess what, sometimes life comes very close to being this easy.

Barr has discovered that the IC IG appointed by Trump is really a deep state operative empowered by Obama, or maybe by Clinton. Regardless, he will be removed retroactively, the illegitimate WB complaint will be stricken, and the now former IC IG will be prosecuted for Trump treason.

Even though justice is lacking in our Justice Department, at least in Texas a jury did the right thing:

The Dallas police officer who killed her neighbor after she walked into his apartment thinking it was her own has been convicted of murder

This is ridiculous. If we allow second hand reports of crimes to be used against criminals then you’d have situations where people were convicted of murdering people where the only possible witness, was, you know, already dead.

One is forced to wonder: What the actual fsck is wrong with these people? Second hand reports are great when it comes to Hillary Clinton’s alleged crimes, or Hunter Biden’s imaginary crimes, but for Trump, nothing is ever sufficient evidence, up to and including his own damned admissions.

Glad to see that - I couldn’t believe it when it initially happened and she was allowed to wander around the crime scenen and then go home

Blow that whistle today.

Everyone knows Trump is a crook. A hundred Republican Presidential candidates told us in 2016.

Jury deliberated less than a day. She really went into sobbing mode on the stand. Looked phony to me and I guess the jury thought so too.

I’m guessing they jury may have been slightly more sympathetic if she’d tried to perform CPR and not texted her boyfriend/partner after she did it.

Never let facts get in the way of a good narrative. He’s fundraising on this and raking it in, to boot,
