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, maybe an assault rifle. Fondle them a bit, load and unload, then swagger in manly confidence again. It works for all the others. Anyway, while spraying more word salad at today’s press conference with the Romanian president, […]
I can’t claim I thought of this, but once my wife mentioned it, I had to agree. Unless Trump was wearing a bugged carnation in his lapel, he doesn’t have tapes or recordings of the Comey conversations. The dinner was in the President’s residence, not the oval office. I kind of doubt the President’s personal staff were drilling bugs into the historic woodwork. But…. Imagine […]
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. Trump wasn’t especially specific about his counter-charges. And yet Trump (and his sleazy lawyer) were […]
This is a paraphrase from Paul Ryan as reported in the Washington Post: [Rep. Paul Ryan] added: “I would just say that of course there needs to be a degree of independence between [the Department of Justice], FBI and the White House and a line of communications established. The president’s new at this. He’s new to government, and so he probably wasn’t steeped in the […]
Lots of people have compared the Republican questions for James Comey yesterday to the 1991 Clarence Thomas confirmation hearing, where Sen. Arlen Specter grilled Anita Hill mercilessly about her testimony. Even with the awful bits, I think I was lucky to have watched both. I agree that the parallels are striking. “Why didn’t you confront your ultimate boss — an alpha-male who controls your fate […]
The Comey testimony had so many bombshells it’s hard to summarize it, but I wanted to touch on Sen. John McCain. He was listed as an ex officio member, which means he isn’t a voting member, but they let him ask questions. He was the last questioner. The most charitable interpretation I’ve got is that the GOP leadership shipped him in to tar Comey. I’m […]
I’m still a little shocked at how casually the White House lies about stupid stuff. When NBC asked the White House spokeswoman about the Comey hearings, the press corps could hear every TV in the White House playing the Senate hearing. And yet deputy press secretary Sarah Sanders insisted that it was just an ordinary Thursday at the White House, and nobody was making a […]
I’m watching the Comey hearing, but thinking about yesterday’s testimony by DNI Daniel Coats, Acting FBI Director Andrew McCabe, NSA Director Michael Rogers and Deputy AG Rod Rosenstein. Sorry not to give the direct quote, but here’s a CNN description: “I am not going to discuss the specifics of interactions that I may or may have not had with the President. ” Rogers said, adding […]
