Him under oath answering questions Mueller asks is lol
From what I understand the DOJ is negotiating terms for an interview without the need for a subpoena. I'm not sure which would be better for him.
By Smoke Dogg Go To PostYou know what's funny to me, I can never look at New York City as this amazing world-city beacon of democracy and diversity ever again.lol blame the Russians for America being America
New York City is now the same city that isn't only home city to all the greatest economic crashes, the city that not only has crumbling airports and subways, it's also the city that gave us the one-two punch of Rudy Guiliani and Donald Trump.
And now California is the state that gave America two all-time great douchebags, Issa and Nunes.
No place in America is safe anymore. The Russians have infiltrated everything. Everything we have, we have only because the Russians are letting us have it.
Holy shit, this is an epic thread. The Fusion GPS investigation was onto some straight up global conspiracy Bourne shit and the republicans spend 10 straight hours not asking a single question about Trump's obvious treason, but trying desperately to discredit these guys and failing.
I don't understand how Trump keeps getting away with this, why Comey broke regulations and announced the Hillary investigation (which amounted to nothing) but did nothing about the obvious five-alarm Trump fire, why the NYT sat on the story (how could they not corroborate if the info was just out there?) or why this is still going on over a year later.
By livefromkyoto Go To PostI don't understand how Trump keeps getting away with this.because trump is a rich white male.
Also Trump is basically indebted to so many people and institutions why wouldn't they want him in in order to trade favors? Like he just did with deutsche bank!
By livefromkyoto Go To PostProjection is... a helluva drug?

Let's face it our democracy is basically a joke because there are numerous conflicts of interest that our politicians can keep getting away with and this has long been a problem well before Trump's super obvious bullshit.

Exactly, if you read that thread, they spend 10 hours going "WHAT ARE YOUR PARTISAN INTERESTS? WHO PAID YOU TO REPORT THE CRIME YOU UNCOVERED TO THE FBI?" Over and over and over.
And then when they get absolutely nothing, they come out of the closed investigation with the exact same talking points to the media anyway as if they did. It's the most transparently partisan attempt railroad a national security investigation imaginable.

A. Trump is getting away with this because he's being protected by congress
B. They're protecting him because:
B1. They like the policy he's proposing / signing
B2. They don't want to alienate his base
B3. They don't want this scandal going into 2018 and 2020
C. Comey didn't come out with this but did the Clinton stuff for a couple reasons.
C1. The GOP was gonna leak it anyway and
C2. The yates plan scandal and emails stuff originated from a source that was known to be fake at the FBI. If they didn't act like they were moving on this the source of the fake material would know they were made.
D. It's still going on over a year later because of A and because of E
E. Special counsel it approaching this like a mob take down. Start with the bottom and work to the top. I feel were' getting closer and closer. Any day now Kushner will be indicted. It will be glorious.
Like, the part where Trump makes tons of trips to Moscow, brags about all the business deals he's doing, but on paper never comes away with a single one isn't even shady, it's right out there in the sun. This dude is carrying on like Fredo while somehow getting away with Kaizer Soze shit. And the US justice system is like "golly, we don't know, give us time here."
Part of this is Hubris on the part of the Trump team too. Had Papadopolous not ran his mouth to some Australian, the FBI may have never started this investigation as it would have only been the Dossier to start off of. They acted like nobody was gonna check on them. It's why Sessions so freely lied under oath. It's why they hold meeting in his hotels and send stupid fucking emails talking about hacks and wikileaks and all kinds of shit.
People refer to it as "stupid Watergate", but I think it's more like "Hubris Watergate"

I just heard a Cali state congressman is introducing a bill that would automatically expunge, reduce or hault people with current pot convictions ...
Hope we pass this

Hubris implies intelligence but a mixture of arrogance and laziness......... this has all been stupidity

By Zeus Ex Machina Go To PostHubris implies intelligence but a mixture of arrogance and laziness……… this has all been stupidity
He’s never been caught before. At least nothing that’s seriously stuck. So he either went from on the straight to colliding with Putin and money laundering, or he’s been getting away with shit for a min. They all act like they’re above it. He goes in and smooth talks comey like he’s developer buying off a local councilman Lol
The thing is, for the most part they ARE above it. Mother fucker is running all his affairs through his hotel like the emoluments clause doesn’t exist. His party is out here running deflection plays for him and Putin while the right runs rampant with conspiracy.
They have reason to have Hubris

Hubris isn't having a second rate aide and your Son organize a meeting with Russians in your Hotel to discuss collusion...... That's stupidity.
Hubris isn't firing Comey when everyone around you is saying "just ignore it we'll let the lawyers deal with it" .......That's stupidity
Hubris isn't what gave him twitter fingers in spite of the many political L's that are based on his tweets..... It was stupidity again
Trump has literally ramped up to the point there is a scandal to one degree or another EVERYDAY........ Hubris can't even begin to describe the dumb shit he does.

Walmart announced "tax cut bonuses" of $1000 today.
What they didn't want you to notice
-You need 20 years of service to get the full amount
-The average bonus is less than $200
-They're closing almost 30 stores and laying off employees

*Rooting for Brutus*
Several stores were abruptly closed Thursday. In some cases, employees were not informed of the closures prior to showing up to work on Thursday.fucking hell
Instead, they learned that their store would be closing when they found the store's doors locked and a notice announcing the closure, according to reports.
