Don’t worry everyone. “Truth isn’t truth” anymore.
So we can now go back to the world being square.

Well it looked like the jury in the Manafort case were nearing the end of their deliberations today because they asked the judge to stay more than an hour longer. But alas they did not finish and will continue tomorrow morning. The jury has not asked any questions about what they are discussing since the first day or asked for any testimony to be re-read, so no clue what's going on here.

I am not even surprised at the ignorance that comes out of this idiots mouth anymore. And the irony of Trump even making the comment when he struggles daily stringing a coherent sentence together.
Trump calls on Hispanic-American immigration officer to speak, saying he 'speaks perfect English' |

Man the Manafort verdict and a possible Cohen flipping on the same day? Wow, Trump's Twitter will explode
Cohen may plead guilty around 4 today Edit: It may not be a cooperation deal with Mueller.

Also a good day for Christopher Steele, the author of the now infamous Steele Dossier. A federal judge threw out a defamation lawsuit brought by three Russian oligarchs he mentioned:

Not sure why no requirement for cooperation. Seems as if there is alot of evidence to convict Cohen of something (non-Trump collusion related)?

I'm thinking that the government got all the information they needed when they raided his office. Also how much would you really trust Cohen at this point? Still it seems like he's pleading guilty to some pretty heavy charges. I wonder what Cohen gets out of it.

Cohen's plea deal says he did illegal stuff "at the direction of the candidate." I ain't no lawyerin' type, but I'm thinking that doesn't sound good for whatever candidate that may have directed him to do that...

Cohen also pleads guilty on eight counts, lincluding two campaign finance crimes, involving paying off McDougal and Daniels

The President's campaign manager, national security advisor, and personal attorney are now all convicted felons.
Let that sink in.

I would also think, as a non cooperative deal, the prosecution has a more effective witness if there is testimony that implicates someone else, higher up. If he's cooperative, there's reasonable suspicion that he might be lying to get a better deal. I mean, that's just pure speculation, but perhaps?

I think you have to give Trump a lot of credit on this one: another one of his campaign promises is being fulfilled before our eyes.
He promised to drain the swamp: he personally identified three high profile shysters, and has overseen them being brought to justice. I can only see more to come, further proving him to be a man of his word. Another tick in the box for the world’s favourite President.

LOL at Trump’s defense: This isn’t related to “Russian collusion” so you must ignore these other crimes that have been uncovered along the way.

Jokes about “the best people” aside, imagine any CEO who has THREE of his or her hand-picked execs convicted of felonies. That person would be resigning in disgrace immediately.

And Trump now has the perfect deflection to0 the Manafort trial in that he can rail against illegal immigrants since it has now been revealed that Molly Tibbets killer is here illegally. And he will exploit the hell out of it.

And... GOP Rep. Duncan Hunter and his wife are indicted for using campaign funds for personal expenses.
So Collins(indicted for insider trading) was the first GOP congress member to endorse Trump and Hunter was the second. Rick Wilson is right, everything Trump touches dies.

Had to double check to make sure I was reading PC Gamer here. but apparently Rep. Hunter is a gamer-surely we can't send him to jail for spending campaign money on Steam can we?

Which would be a great defense if no US citizen ever committed murder. I realize he'll try and latch on to that, but c'mon. It's not like all murderers are illegal immigrants, and all victims of murder are citizens.

No to veer too far off course, but the guy accused of killing her evidently passed the E-verify process and had worked for the past several years at a farm owned by a prominent Iowa GOP family.

Not only will 40% of the country passionately and loudly not care, but the majority of the house and senate won't care either. It can't be a scandal that brings down a presidency if everybody knew it was true months ago and there's literally nothing the guy could do to lose the support he has anyway. Now if somebody can point to a realistic legal path that doesn't involve the Dems controlling both houses that ends up in Donald Trump not being president anymore, maybe this isn't the same as all those other times CNN has been beside itself with giddiness at the latest Trump scandal. I'm not holding my breath until then though. |
