Here’s an odd thing. The FBI is headquartered in the J. Edgar Hoover Building in downtown DC. If you’re not in the area, you’ve seen images on TV for years. Iconic as it is, it’s old and broken down. The phase “falling apart” gets a lot of coverage. They’ve been looking to move to a new, modern building for a decade now. They’ve done the...
Donald Trump, Jr. characterized the meeting with the Russian lawyer as a meeting about Russian adoptions. They only talked about Russian adoptions, which sounds benign, and nothing explicitly criminal. That’s a thin dodge. When the US implemented sanctions against Russia and the Putin oligarchs — because Russia invaded and annexed Crimea — Putin stopped all the US adoptions of Russian orphans in retaliation. This meeting...
So we’re at an inflection point. Oddly, the question isn’t what happened up to now. We know Donald Trump, Jr. knowingly colluded with Russian sources to interfere in the 2016 election, because he told us so. He gave us the emails. There are questions about so many broken laws that it’s hard to pick which to follow first. The question is about what Republicans do...
Things are moving along the way you’d expect. The White House is minimizing the Russian collusion news, saying…. Eh, who cares? They’re liars. Sarah Huckabee Sanders defended the… Such a bad liar, it’s painful to listen to her. Kellyanne Conway responded with…. No. Don’t even start. Trump tweeted…. Trump lies like most people breathe. Leading Republicans? Please. Where next? Al Jazeera? RT? Better than waiting...

Republicans… well, older Republicans, anyway… huh. Let me start again. There were people who became Republicans because they believed in the articulated Republican principles. A central Republican principle was that the best government was small. They felt that government, while necessary, wasn’t efficient. They used to talk about how competitive markets were always better and more efficient than centrally planned economies. Government, they argued, never...
The latest spout of Trump Crazy tweets — the ones that leave me shaking my head — leave a third of us delighted. They see Trump as a fighter. “Look at him hit back against those snobby elites!” they tell each other, as if Trump ever actually won a fair fight. Here’s a quote from Washington Post opinion piece by Hugh Hewitt: The rest of...
As part of his extensive preparations for the G-20 summit and his one-on-one meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin — easily the most important meeting in his Presidency so far — Trump took the time to tweet this thoughts: Everyone here is talking about why John Podesta refused to give the DNC server to the FBI and the CIA. Disgraceful! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump)...
