  1. Mueller said he would of exonerated the President, if he could........but stated that he could not.
  2. We will have to disagree. A good deal of Obstruction going on: https://www.factcheck.org/2019/04/what-the-mueller-report-says-about-obstruction/
  3. Not my source. Btw, try reading the Mueller Report itself. That way you will know what a snow job was put out by Barr
  4. Masks, crooks.....certain symmetry there, anyways...
  5. Given the way Barr distorted and misrepresented the Mueller Report, Trump certainly knew what he was doing when he hired this guy - a unethical flunky..... to be the highest legal official in the land. His current "job" is to provide cover for Donald Trump
  6. Must protest. Jeb wouldn't of let anything like that happen...
  7. Pretty accurate summation....
  8. Asked by a reporter whether he considered wearing a mask around a group of elderly people who are at a higher risk of the virus, Trump said no. “I was very far away,” he said. “I would have loved to have gone up and hugged them because they’re great. I had a conversation with everyone but we were very far away. And the wind was blowing hard in such a direction that if the plague ever reached them, I’d be very surprised.” Good Gawd...
  9. Fake news. Everyone can get one. And they are beautiful.
  10. While I cower indoors, with my reduced immune system (cancer treatments), and ongoing pulmonary condition......would like to give a shout out to the bold fighters for freedom down south, and the heroic social commentators, who would make Jack London proud, and truly understand the laws of nature, and why people like me must simply be resigned to our fate. I can, however...live with that shame...and plan to inconvenience some people for a while yet..
  11. You mistakenly took the President's comments literally....
  12. https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2020/05/michael-flynn-learned-to-play-by-trumps-rules/611332/
  13. Trump just said he had no idea, that this would happen......after screaming for it for months
  14. Flynn was just being sarcastic......
  15. Of course, but a lot of pretty deluded people think otherwise. And Trump has a track record of making life easier for certain corporate concerns (tax cuts, massive deregulation)
  16. Big part of this is a lot of the MAGA folks, caught in a intellectual and emotional cul-de-sac. For years, they have been bombarded by right wing media, telling them that are "victims" of many insidious forces - Immigrants, foreigners, media, and the traditional institutions of government, (deep state) that have banded together to deny them, what they truly deserve. This also ties in well with the general xenophobic and racist thinking in certain quarters on the Right Hatred of the "elites", also is handy for resisting environmental concerns, and debunking higher education and science. On the surface, pretty strange that some working people still look to Trump - who manly fights for the 1%ers, dividend holders and other "elites", to protect their interests. But, Trump has to be right.....or every thing they have been told, and believe is a total lie and a giant fraud. Too bad.....it is.
  17. The White House has shelved an extensive report by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) meant to provide local officials with step-by-step instructions for re-opening public spaces during the coronavirus pandemic, according to an Associated Press report released Thursday. The 17-page document, titled “Guidance for Implementing the Opening Up America Again Framework,” was set to be published last Friday, but agency scientists were told it “would never see the light of day,” a CDC official told the AP. https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/496528-white-house-shelved-cdc-reopening-guidance-report So giving local officials specific and detailed information about re-opening, is squelched, simply because it runs counter to the vague Administration directives, which Trump himself, has already tacitly ignored. They want things keep vague for a reason folks......and responsibility be dammed.
  18. It's common knowledge....
  19. Well, the COVID-19 outbreak was identified in South Korea and in the United States on the same day. After struggling with previous responses to SARS and MERS, the SD government had drawn up a specific pandemic playbook based on test, trace, isolate - high tech contact tracing, massive amounts of tests produced quickly, and Zero-Tolerance Isolation measures. As well, the activation of consistent messaging - daily briefings by scientists and medical experts, only .....to update the public and promote best practices,such as social distancing and hand-washing, regardless of location. Today, South Korea has fewer than 300 deaths.....the U.S. more than 70,000. Not even going to belabour the sorry specifics of the Trump Administration's efforts in dealing with this crisis. Posted a couple of months ago, that thousands of Americans would die needlessly. Hoped I was wrong, but.....here we are.
  20. Jared Kushner's shadow coronavirus task force used a spreadsheet called 'VIP Update' to procure PPE from inexperienced Trump allies over legitimate vendors https://www.businessinsider.com/jared-kushner-coronavirus-task-force-prioritized-ppe-trump-associates-nyt-2020-5 An example of this: After One Tweet To President Trump, This Man Got $69 Million From New York For Ventilators The Silicon Valley engineer, who had no background in medical supplies but was recommended by the White House, never delivered the ventilators. https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/rosalindadams/after-one-tweet-to-president-trump-this-man-got-69-million
  21. The irony, of course.....it will be a lot of the MAGA types taking the brunt, of it.....
  22. Unfair. How could Trump ignore warnings that he never received? Or know about a dozen briefings that he never attended? The Lamestream Media has simply gone too far this time...
  23. Joint Chiefs of Staff chairman says evidence suggests coronavirus was not manmade or released from lab https://thehill.com/policy/defense/496241-joint-chiefs-of-staff-chairman-says-evidence-suggests-coronavirus-was-not You realize, that we will now have to wait a day or two, until Trump and his megaphones roll out the next phony baloney narrative. Or perhaps until later this afternoon......
  24. This could bring on yet another tantrum: RATINGS RACE SUNDAY: CBS '60 MINUTES' SCORES 9,108,000 VIEWERS FOXNEWS TRUMP TOWN HALL 3,820,000...
  25. GOP leaders stepping up to the plate: Chris Christie: We have to reopen country and 'allow that there are going to be deaths' https://thehill.com/policy/healthcare/496112-chris-christie-we-have-to-reopen-country-and-allow-that-there-are-going-to GOP Ohio state lawmaker refuses to wear face mask because faces are the 'likeness of God' https://thehill.com/homenews/state-watch/496086-gop-ohio-state-lawmaker-refuses-to-wear-face-mask-because-faces-are-the
