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...
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...
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...
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...
Update: my original story included Kellyanne Conway. She and Steven Bannen were mentioned by an intermediary offering campaign access, but neither was in this meeting. col·lu·sion noun secret agreement or cooperation especially for an illegal or deceitful purpose acting in collusion with the enemy Breaking News The New York Times...
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...
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 reactions to Trump’s latest… thing — tweet, snot-projectile, whatever — are about par for this terrible course. First, though, since Trump is working so hard to distract us, let me recapitulate with some of the things Trump doesn’t want us thinking about: After the CBO reported that the Senate...
Trump’s tweets are making the rounds: I heard poorly rated @Morning_Joe speaks badly of me (don’t watch anymore). Then how come low I.Q. Crazy Mika, along with Psycho Joe, came.. – Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) June 29, 2017 …to Mar-a-Lago 3 nights in a row around New Year’s Eve, and insisted on joining me....
Trump, who still shrilly insists there was no Russian hacking, issued a string of tweets about the Washington Post detailed, extensive article about that hacking. In his latest tweets, Trump said– Yeah, I still don’t care. Trump remains a compulsive liar; nothing he says has weight or bearing. That makes...
That didn’t take long. Yesterday, I suggested one consequence of the GOP’s decision to go it all alone was that they couldn’t lose many votes, making every wingnut and dipwad the master of the GOP for a day. Every single senator knows that if they make the slightest fuss, they’ll...
Today, Senate Republicans released their draft of Trumpcare. You remember, the one they were going to rewrite from scratch? It’s like the kids who did their homework on the bus into school. Republicans changed a couple of words from the House version, cut even more money from the poor and...
Who here would be surprised and shocked — shocked! — that Donald Trump lied to us? Hands? Anyone? Yeah, me neither. With all of the recently reported electronic surveillance, intercepts, unmasking and illegal leaking of information, I have no idea… — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) June 22, 2017 …whether there...

What do we call a day where there were two mass shootings, with a combined total of five dead and six wounded by two shooters, both of whom were killed or killed themselves? Apparently, we call it ‘Wednesday’. According to the Gun Violence Archive, there have already been 154 mass...
Donald Trump campaigned as the “Law and Order” candidate. Not a big surprise, since every Republican before him positioned themselves as the same savior. And, like the Republicans that came before him, he’s shown a… unique vision of what that means in practice. So far, that’s included Trump firing all...
President Donald Trump speaks at press conference in the Rose Garden at the White House on June 9, 2017. (Erie News Now) Oh, Lordy. Trump still feels inadequate about his election. Again. Why can’t he act like most conservative Americans? Donny. Just go out and buy yourself some big pistol,...
Yesterday, James Comey called President Donald Trump a liar. He did this in sharp,, specific detail. He cited his contemporaneous documentation and the people he spoke to at the time. Comey was specific, detailed, and damning. Today, Trump responded to Comey’s accusations, saying everything Comey had said was a lie. ...
