Top U.S. Diplomat Paints Damning Quid Pro Quo in Testimony

Top U.S. Diplomat Paints Damning Quid Pro Quo in Testimony:  Senior U.S. diplomat to Ukraine William B. Taylor Jr., painted a devastating portrait in testimony on Capitol Hill of White House-directed efforts guided by Rudy Giuliani, to pressure the government in Kiev to “publicly investigate” a Democratic political rival and his son or face a cut-off in aid - in effect, subordinating national interests to Donald Trump’s political prospects.
Now, if there’s one thing that’s as predictable as Trump’s golfing weekends or his affinity for Eastern European women - it’s Trump cultists insisting this is just another nothing burger.  And I can kind of see their point.  I mean, all he and Rudy did was form a secretive shadow government which withheld taxpayer money Congress allocated to prevent the Russians from overrunning Ukraine - until they agreed to publicly investigate Trump’s likely election rival over some phony conspiracy theory which they were warned early on was completely bogus.

Then, a little later - they simply decided “oh hell, let’s just turn all that Syrian territory which US soldiers fought and died side-by-side with the Kurds to defend - over to Turkey and the Russians - and so they did.  Now, with that little task completed, Trump then decides to award himself the contract to host the G-7 Summit.  I mean, as acting chief of staff Mick Mulvaney so aptly put it - the President has a business to run.  Who could possibly fault a fellow for that?

Trump Using Divisive Topics Like Plastic Straws to Energize Base

Trump Using Divisive Topics Like Plastic Straws to Energize Base:  Using tactics such as plastic straws, wind turbines, bogus conspiracy theories and race-baiting, White House aides freely admit that Donald Trump has been deliberately attempting to amplify public tensions in America by seizing on divisive issues as a means to energize his explosively angry base. Now, I know what some of you are thinking - you’re thinking “now this, is the last straw!”  Well, before you attack the “straw man,” remember that Donald Trump was that kid in school who thought it was simply hilarious to jam two straws up his nostrils.  Straws were an important part of Donald’s childhood, so it shouldn’t be a big surprise they remain so today.     What all you “elites" don’t understand is that Trump folks are all about fighting for “freedom.”  You know, the freedom to be morbidly obese, the freedom to destroy the environment, the freedom to live without affordable healt...

Green-Haired Turtle that Breathes Through Genitals Added to Endangered List

Green-Haired Turtle that Breathes Through Genitals Added to Endangered List:  The Mary River turtle of Queensland, Australia, which breaths through its genitals and sports a punky green Mohican hairdo, has been placed on a new list of the most vulnerable reptile species on the planet.  Now, of course, we’ve all known people who talk out of their ass, but come on - breathing through your genitals is quite a feat.  http://www.johnnyrobish.com Study Finds Flat Earth Believers Tend to Be Young:  A new survey found that 34 percent of 18- to 24-year-olds entertain some doubts about whether the Earth is actually round.  Good grief, sounds like we flat out need to see that these millennials get a more well-rounded education.  http://www.johnnyrobish.com Huge-Nosed Dinosaur Found in Utah:  Paleontologists have discovered a new dinosaur which had a humongous nose that lived 76-million years ago in what is now Utah.  Ironically, if ...

Trump Commutes Old Pal Roger Stone's Sentence

Trump Commutes Old Pal Roger Stone's Sentence:   After declaring Roger Stone a victim of the “Russia hoax” perpetuated by the Left and its allies in the media, President Trump has commuted the three-year prison criminal sentence for the Republican operative and dirty trickster, who was due to report to federal prison on Tuesday after being found guilty of obstruction, witness tampering and lying to Congress. Good grief, is it my imagination, or has Trump actually just pardoned the real-life version of the Monopoly guy?  I mean, Stone is a villain right out of Charles Dickens.  Why, this is an act so corrupt, it’s almost enough to make Kim Jong-un and Vladimir Putin blush. Now, I’m no legal expert, but it appears what the Trump Administration is basically arguing is that - someone shouldn’t be punished for committing a crime which “they really should’ve gotten away with.”  And while that may sound a bit odd to the rest of us, that kind of thinking makes go...
