The thing that confuses me (and I certainly dont know anything about geo-politics) is how many people are saying "look you cant cause an international incident over one murder, you cant tick off the Saudi's or they will crush us".  Why is the US so beholden to Saudi Arabia?  Is Saudi Arabia not beholden to the US?

You know what would happen if they turned off the oil for a week?

Trump only cares about wealth and in his mind he is trying to set himself up by using the name of the POTUS to do business with all these countries after they throw him out of the WH 😂

Interesting coincidences detailed here 

At this point, I wouldn't doubt any of it. 

The unpacking of this administration, following all the indictments, pleas and convictions will be remarkable. 

I'm not sure how anyone will be able to explain this.

 

I've been watching the Ken Burns Vietnam documentary and we're well into the Nixon administration. The corruption that eventually took Nixon down, pales in comparison to the corruption we've already seen with Trump, his administration and the GOP AND we're less than 2 years in. Incredible.

The Republicans are really, a proto fascist organisation. 

Quote

Last weekend, the fancy Metropolitan Republican Club, on Manhattan’s Upper East Side, hosted the Proud Boys’ Gavin McInnes. The ex-founder of Vice magazine, failed stand-up comic, and current leader of an alt-right “Western chauvinist” group gave what was, according to a witness, a bizarre and disjointed speech. McInnes dressed up as a Japanese assassin who killed a Socialist politician with a sword during a political rally in 1960, re-enacting the event with the help of a fellow Proud Boy.

This guy is a plain racist, whose followers fight on the street.

Republicans  have been completely taken over by Trump, and his  followers.

Spoiler alert - these are Republicans. Have been for over 50 years.

No, disagree. The Republicans were nothing like this 50 years ago. They were pro business with low taxes, like now. But their congressmen & senators  for the most part were decent individuals.

Both sides of the table can be pretty scummy....

CNN reporting that two "suspicious packages" (reported to be IED's - a.k.a. bombs) were found, one outside Bill and Hillary Clinton's home, and one that was addressed to Barack Obama. This comes two days after a pipe bomb was sent to George Soros' home. Also, police called to investigate a suspicious package sent to Time Warner offices (the parent company of CNN) that led to a building evacuation.

At first glance, someone seems to be declaring war on Democrats in a very literal sense.
