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 Lawyer Schoen Threatens America With Civil War

Trump Lawyer Schoen Threatens America With Civil War: In a fiery speech, arguing that impeachment would disenfranchise Donald Trump’s supporters, defense lawyer David Schoen is being harshly criticized for his thinly veiled threat - warning that impeaching the former president could very well result in even more violence from Donald Trump’s easily enraged base. So, if I understand Schoen’s argument correctly, it sounds as if he’s implying that “if you bring Trump to trial, then that angry, violent mob who attacked the Capitol, wanting to hang Vice President Pence and kill various members of Congress, might get really, really mad again - and there will be reprisals.” You know, we’re talking stuff like ”Nice country you have here - be a damn shame if something were to happen to it!” In other words, Schoen’s trying to incite violence, in defense of a man who’s facing trial - over inciting violence. They don’t teach you that in law school. Now, is it jus...

Trump Returns to Do White House Coronavirus Briefings Solo

Trump Returns to Do White House Coronavirus Briefings Solo: Three months after he abandoned the daily virus briefings and attempted to turn the country’s attention to what he described as the “great American comeback,” President Trump took the lectern in the White House briefing room alone on Tuesday, free to say whatever he wanted without any distractions from the usual bunch “sciencey nerds” behind him. And, in a rare moment of candor, Trump reluctantly admitted that the spread of the coronavirus will likely get worse before it gets better, and that people should probably wear masks. Well said Mr President! The fact is, most of us are already rather optimistic things will begin to get better - sometime after November 3rd. Ironically, now that Trump is finally admitting the virus is spreading fast and that people should wear masks, you’d think most of those armed militia thugs, whom Trump egged on to to out and “liberate” those Democratic run states from t...

Former Trump National Security Advisor Warns ‘Deep State’ Putting COVID Vaccine in Salad Dressing

Former Trump National Security Adviser Michael Flynn, who was fired and then prosecuted for lying to the FBI about his contacts with Russia before being ultimately pardoned by Trump, is now sliding further into the QAnon conspiracy world, telling the hosts of an online show dedicated to COVID and election fraud conspiracies - that he has heard the “Deep State” is attempting to “sneak coronavirus vaccine into salad dressing.” Now, I have no idea where Gen. Flynn got this information, but my guess is it was probably a text from Mike Lindell or Rudy Giuliani, alerting him to the “hidden dangers of salad dressing.” Or, it could have been Nicki Minaj for all I know. After all, she does have another cousin who has a friend in Timbuktu. Word on the street has it the “Deep State” will initially start with “Ranch Dressing” to vaccinate the cowboys, then move on to “Russian Dressing,” to get the rest of Trump’s supporters. Anyway, I hate to rain on Gen. Flynn’s conspiracy the...
