		<description>&lt;I&gt;it&#039;s always the tendency to exaggerate the positives or negatives of the current president when compared to a more remote past. &lt;/I&gt;

Granted..

&lt;I&gt; hell, maybe against all odds it will end up working to our country&#039;s benefit.&lt;/I&gt;

It certainly has in the short term...

&lt;I&gt; it seems like the president tried and failed to collude with russia,&lt;/I&gt;

Could you quote the part of the Mueller report that leads you to this conclusion??

Because, based on my own reading, it appears that there were minions under the President, far down the food chain, who might have showed some desire to get dirt on Hillary via Russian sources..  

That is not at all illegal, doesn&#039;t really amount to &quot;collusion&quot; and all of it was done without the direction or knowledge of then-Candidate Trump..

&lt;I&gt;donald may not be a great president, but he certainly has been a great president for comedians.&lt;/I&gt;

As was Obama if more Right Wing candidates existed..

I mean, seriously.. Those dumbo-ears alone would be a comic&#039;s dream if said comic wasn&#039;t joined at the hip to the Demcorat Propaganda machine..

The full measure of Saint Ronald Reagan&#039;s greatness wasn&#039;t measured til long after he left office.

President Trump will likely follow the same pattern..</description>

		<description>it&#039;s always the tendency to exaggerate the positives or negatives of the current president when compared to a more remote past. plus, many of the policies a president pursues don&#039;t really see their full impact until at least ten years after the fact. therefore i&#039;ve learned to be more cautious about making comparisons. hell, maybe against all odds it will end up working to our country&#039;s benefit.

still, i&#039;m hopeful that things aren&#039;t as bad as they currently appear. based on my read of the mueller report redacted, it seems like the president tried and failed to collude with russia, tried and failed to obstruct justice to prevent anyone thinking he&#039;d colluded with russia  (even though he hadn&#039;t!), and was accidentally saved from  betraying the country by underlings who generally refused to follow his cockamamie orders, for their own selfish reasons.

donald may not be a great president, but he certainly has been a great president for comedians.

		<description>&lt;I&gt;&quot;Just go the fuck away. Just go away and leave us alone. Don’t tweet, don’t talk, don’t appear on TV. Go away. Get out of here and we won&#039;t put you in jail. In fact, we got you your own island, and it&#039;s great. And everybody chipped in—Canada, Mexico, the EU—everybody chipped in and it&#039;s great. You&#039;re gonna love it, Donald. It&#039;s beautiful. You can do whatever you want there—have Diet Coke and McDonald&#039;s, and fuck other men&#039;s wives. And we&#039;re gonna pay robots to tell you how awesome you are 24 hours a day. And everything&#039;s gold! Gold chairs and gold towels and golden showers, you&#039;re gonna love it! Just go. Get the fuck away from us. Take your shitty fucking criminal family with you and get the fuck out. Leave us alone, and let America become a decent place again.&quot;&lt;/I&gt;

Ya&#039;all COULD have accomplished that at the ballot box..

But that wasn&#039;t good enough for ya&#039;all..  Ya&#039;all had to lie and bullshit and try to engineer a coup...

And, ya&#039;all FAILED...

Which is a good thing... I hate to think of all the death and destruction if ya&#039;all succeeded...</description>

		<description>&lt;I&gt;Michale fell hook, line, and sinker for the fake Nancy video.&lt;/I&gt;

Except that it wasn&#039;t a fake Nancy video..  It WAS Pelosi..

Further, the video I posted has NOTHING to do with the video that President Trump posted..

Once again, yer fact-less..  As in not a single fact you have to be found...</description>

		<description>Another amusing observation:

Trump, who boasted about how he&#039;d run into a school unarmed to confront an active shooter, only managed to last three minutes with Nancy before running away and complaining she wasn&#039;t being fair to him.

		<description>It is also funny to see the gullible right get all excited over a fake Nancy video, yet they don&#039;t know about, or have forgotten, the &quot;oranges&quot; episode from their &quot;stable genius&quot; :)</description>

This just further illustrates how not being allowed to disagree with grand leader destroys your ability to think rationally.</description>

		<description>&lt;I&gt;So they sat down with Democrats from both the Senate and the House and hammered out a &quot;clean&quot; disaster relief bill. &quot;Clean,&quot; in this instance, means &quot;with no money for Trump&#039;s frivolous border wall.&quot;&lt;/I&gt;

&lt;B&gt;Railing against the &quot;swamp,&quot; Roy objected to speeding the measure through a nearly-empty chamber, complained it wasn&#039;t paid for and challenged a decision not to include President Trump&#039;s $4.5 billion request for dealing with the migrant crisis on the U.S.-Mexico border.&lt;/B&gt;
https://www.foxnews.com/politics/lone-gop-rep-blocks-disaster-aid-bill-in-surprise-move

&lt;B&gt;&quot;Just a fly in the ointment, Hans.. A monkey with a wrench..&quot;&lt;/B&gt;
-John McClane, DIE HARD

Once again, if Dumbocrats would work WITH President Trump instead of trying to kill his Presidency with lies and bullshit...

These things wouldn&#039;t happen..</description>

Thank you for proving my point..

Oh I do.. Your bullshit is nonsense.. Like the Russia Collusion delusion.. FACTS prove it was nonsense..

Reality PROVE it was nonsense..

So, whatever ya&#039;all spew??  That&#039;s nonsense..

		<description>&lt;i&gt;Yea.. Just like Hillary&#039;s relationship with the Russians and their uranium is a &quot;whole story, right??&lt;/i&gt;

The whole story is that there is no story. 

You have to distinguish between reality and nonsense Michale. There are whole organizations dedicated to making that task harder for us, but there are some key principals you can adhere to if you want to have integrity in your approach to these issues.

Blacklisting NPR, the Washington Post, etc. is throwing out well researched journalism. Doing so and subscribing to a well documented biased source is just reading what makes you happy.

We&#039;ve been through this several times. Your motivations are more concerned with you &quot;winning&quot; and the left &quot;losing&quot; than adhering to integrity, because winning and losing silly flame wars is more important to you. You know that is why you continually spam a left wing blogger&#039;s comment section with cut and paste stuff nobody reads.

Every baseless claim you make about me being &quot;party before everything&quot; is really just a reflection of your worldview. 

Every time you invent some position I am meant to have held (e.g. I thought the Russians and Trump actively conspired to commit illegal acts) are required by you to win some point in your head, because you know that since early 2017 I&#039;ve been saying that the Russians are too smart to trust Trump with anything they wanted kept clandestine.

That doesn&#039;t mean that the Russians didn&#039;t engage in clandestine activities, it is clear from the Mueller Report and many, many other sources that they did. However you can&#039;t admit that because, like Trump, you think it would mean that Trump only won because of Russian interference - something I think is a distinct possibility, given the small numbers he won by in some key states.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;Hillary commissioned the dossier from a foreigner.&lt;/i&gt;

No she didn&#039;t - it  was the Republican &quot;Washington Free Beacon&quot; looking for dirt on Trump that started the Steele investigation.

Michale only gets the right wing version of any story - you have to look for independent sources for the whole truth (and sometimes to identify the lies he either deliberately or, most likely, unwittingly, spouts) if you are going to discuss these things with him.

Remember, Michale fell for Trump&#039;s con and still believes in him, despite Trump being caught lying over 10,000 times since Jan 2017.</description>

		<description>&lt;I&gt;Sorry, I don&#039;t even know what the &quot;Horowitz&quot; thing is.&lt;/I&gt;

Michael Horowitz is the Inspector General of the DOJ..  He is investigating the infamous dossier and it&#039;s use as justification in FISA warrants..

It&#039;s a pretty neat racket that Obama and the Dumbocrats had..

Hillary commissioned the dossier from a foreigner..(Collusion!!???) The guy, a scumbag named Steele used his Russia contacts (MORE COLLUSION!!!) to obtain stuff on Trump that was outlandish and total bullshit..  Hillary gave that report to Odumbo and his minions in the FBI...  The FBI leaked the report to Buzzfeed (or Daily Beast.. One of those rags) and to WaPoop..  These useful fools promptly reported on the bullshit as if it were facts and then the FBI took the dossier AND the news reports that &quot;confirmed&quot; the dossier to the FISA courts to obtain warrants to spy on the Trump campaign..

You see, they figured that once they had the warrants, the would find out all sorts of stuff on Trump.. Stuff so horrendous that no one would care it all started fraudulently and illegally...

This was their &quot;insurance policy&quot; to prevent Trump from being elected and, if that failed, to illegally remove Trump from office..

This is what Horowitz is investigating and his report should be released any day now..

Couple that report with the Mueller Report and Dumbocrats are going to be grounded into dust.. :D

And THAT will tide everyone over until the DOJ Special Prosecutor (Dunhill??) starts indicting Democrats left and right..  :D

It&#039;s going to be a fun rest of 2019... :D</description>

		<description>Hi CRS:

There are a couple of deals that Trump was involved in that are decidedly &quot;interesting&quot; from an AML perspective.

First is Trump Soho - the dirty fingers and cast of characters involved (including Felix Sater and Tevfik Arif who ran the Bayrock Group) are a whole litany of material ripe for investigation.

The second is a $100M sale of a scantily improved property Trump bought for $41M four years earlier. The Russian, Dmitry Rybolovlev, is of interest for a range of reasons. This sale came just as Trump was in the middle of yet another bankruptcy and no regular lenders would work with him.

You also really want to look into the cosy relationship Trump had with DB - that is a whole story in its own right.</description>

		<description>It&#039;s clear that Pelosi and the Dumbocrats&#039; goal is to remove a freely, fairly and legally elected President Of The United States..  

Given this fact, do ya&#039;all REALLY find it strange that President Trump refuses to co-operate??

And, remember what I said before..

Russia Collusion is the **ONLY** legitimate reason to remove President Trump..

Since President Trump has been totally, completely and unequivocally exonerated on that, there is absolutely NO CAUSE for removal..

Democrats continue down this path towards a coup at their own peril..  President Trump enjoys 98% approval amongst Law Enforcement and the Military..

Democrats try a coup, they will be in for a world of hurt..</description>

They fact that they will accuse Trump of ANYTHING...  Even if it contradicts all the other stuff they accuse Trump of...

It&#039;s called delusion..</description>

		<description>&lt;I&gt;Trump is running really scared at the moment and Nancy is making him look like a buffoon in front of his own people and family (an &quot;intervention&quot; har har).&lt;/I&gt;

Like I said.. Your own delusional little world.. :D

&lt;I&gt;As he gets closer to the end of his four year circus act, we should expect the finale to be even more outrageous than anything we have seen before - making a fool of himself is all Trump has, so he will go all out for the curtain call.&lt;/I&gt;

&lt;B&gt;“did not establish that members of the Trump Campaign conspired or coordinated with the Russian government in its election interference activities.”&lt;/B&gt;
-Mueller Report

Yea.. Cuz yer predictions are sooo credible.. :D

heh

&lt;I&gt;I only hope nobody get&#039;s harmed, apart from what is left of the Trumpistas self respect of course :)&lt;/I&gt;

If that&#039;s a concern you should be advocating impeachment right now..

How come yer not??

Because you know it would go very very bad for the Dumbocrats...</description>

I&#039;m curious what relation &#039;money laundering&#039; could have to Trump?

As I understand the concept, somebody (presumably crook type) figures out a way to make money by illegal means (pedaling drugs, accepting bribes, etc.).  He then cycles the money thru foreign banks, shell corporations, or some such, who then transfer the money back to the crook thru legal channels, causing it to appear to be &#039;clean&#039;money, right?

But my understanding of Trump is that he rarely to never has actually MADE any money, legal or otherwise, so where would money have ever come from that needed to BE &#039;laundered&#039;?

He has talked countless people, investors and banks into loaning him huge amounts of $ in (futile) hopes of making a profit, but that kind of $ doesn&#039;t NEED to be &#039;laundered because it never was illegal in the first place, right?

It is a shame for America that the President is a clown, but since I have on blame for him being in office, at least I get to laugh at him and help to vote him off the island at the first chance.

As he gets closer to the end of his four year circus act, we should expect the finale to be even more outrageous than anything we have seen before - making a fool of himself is all Trump has, so he will go all out for the curtain call.

		<description>[11] Michale 

&quot;Not factually accurate..&quot;

We KNOW YOU AREN&#039;T Michale, quit stating the obvious!

&quot;FL recovery from Hurricanes is the finest in the nation... Compare FL recovery to PR&#039;s non-recovery and to NOLA&#039;s tortured recovery..&quot;

Bullshit. I double dare you to come to the panhandle and see for yourself!

&quot;FL had (and has) a GOP government who knows how to take care of business and get things done..&quot;

REALLY??? Talk to the STILL angry people stretching from Panama City to Marianna who STILL have not received recovery help from the hurricane YET.

&quot;PR and NOLA have Democrat-ish and Democrat governments and all they can do is frak things up and blame others for their own mistakes...&quot;

Sounds like you are talking about Republicans to me!</description>

		<description>&lt;I&gt;No, I said all along that:&lt;/I&gt;

And you also said just the opposite.

I recall one comment where you said some author had &quot;proven&quot; the case for Russia collusion..

In other words, you hedged yer bet and spoke out both sides of your ass so you could crow how prescient you were...

&lt;I&gt;he has good reason to get concerned when he hears that Mueller is collecting records from Deutsche Bank and Cyprus based entities.&lt;/I&gt;

And yet President Trump didn&#039;t have a THING to worry about..

You were wrong.. AGAIN...

		<description>&lt;I&gt;PR was in a financial crisis well before the hurricane. &lt;/I&gt;

Exactly..

&lt;I&gt;On the other side of the equation, the Jones Act is a huge import tax on Puerto Rica which is a massive headwind for their economy.&lt;/I&gt;

Not if they actually ran their economy right...</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;Says the guy that bought into the Russia Collusion delusion hook line and sinker.&lt;/i&gt;

No, I said all along that:

1. No Russian espionage agent would be stupid enough to involve Trump or his dumb family in any conspiracy - and I was proven right.
2. The Russians interfered with the 2016 election - and I was proven right.
3. Trump&#039;s real problem is money laundering and that Deutsche Bank were involved - and I&#039;m being proven right.

&lt;i&gt;I also have said all along that the real problem 45 has is the money trail. Russian money laundering activities are all over 45&#039;s business dealings. He might not have broken any laws, but given the scope and flexibility of AML (Anti Money Laundering) laws, he has good reason to get concerned when he hears that Mueller is collecting records from Deutsche Bank and Cyprus based entities.&lt;/i&gt;

		<description>&lt;I&gt;Oh yes they do. &lt;/I&gt;

Not according to the polls you revere and swear by..


&lt;I&gt;They want to know if their President is a crook and what is going on with the Putin bend overs.&lt;/I&gt;

That question has been answered.. You lost..

&lt;I&gt;He ripped up the Paris accord with nothing to replace it.&lt;/I&gt;

Good.. It was useless and nothing but a UN-inspired transfer of wealth..

Smart move, President Trump..

&lt;I&gt;He ripped up the TPP and now we are cut out of the largest new free market created in the last 25 years.&lt;/I&gt;

And we are completely free of all the rules and regulations that favor everyone BUT the US..

Again, smart move by President Trump..

&lt;I&gt;Yet his minions claim he is playing 4D chess. You can fool a lot of the people a lot of the time, so long as those &quot;people&quot; are the extremely gullible ones.&lt;/I&gt;

Says the guy that bought into the Russia Collusion delusion hook line and sinker..

Again.. I have to ask..

Don&#039;t you get tired of LOSING??</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;The island allowed their infrastructure to deteriorate for years, and everybody recognizes it but you.&lt;/i&gt;

PR was in a financial crisis well before the hurricane. Their bonds were getting towards junk status and they were on the brink of asking for a bail out from Congress when the major credit agencies downgraded the bonds in 2014. It is usually an expectation that if you are propping up public spending with low grade bonds, there isn&#039;t much in the way of extra money to put into infrastructure maintenance or updating out-of-date equipment.

On the other side of the equation, the Jones Act is a huge import tax on Puerto Rica which is a massive headwind for their economy.

I&#039;m fine with disaster funding going to PR in this bill, but excepting them permanently from the Jones Act (a protectionist law from 1920 for Pete&#039;s sake) would do more long term good.</description>

You missed the most telling step of all.  Following &quot;Place tariffs&quot;, should be &#039;Claim China is remitting $billions into the U.S. treasury to pay the tariffs.&quot;

The dumb bastard thinks tariffs are paid by the exporters, when everybody knows they are paid by the importers.  He demonstrated his ignorance way back, when he declared on TV that &quot;Trade wars are easy to win&quot;.  It never occurred to him that his &#039;weapons&#039; for winning trade wars were available to the other sid also.</description>

&lt;I&gt;Nancy&#039;s daughter said that this Nancy is ninja level at this sort of thing, that she could outmaneuver everybody. Looks like Nancy has another child to humiliate into learning decency.&lt;/I&gt;

A ninja who can&#039;t speak coherently..  Yea, whatever you have to tell yerself. :D

&lt;I&gt;Now he is on a witch hunt for &quot;spies who spied on him&quot; and is ripping up legal restraints on the A.G. so he can &quot;prove&quot; there was &quot;spying&quot;.&lt;/I&gt;

		<description>Trump has not completed a single deal. NAFTA is basically the same but with steel tariffs that are causing Ford and other large consumers of steel to lay people off and send jobs overseas where the cost of steel isn&#039;t taxed to the hilt.

He ripped up the Paris accord with nothing to replace it.

He ripped up the TPP and now we are cut out of the largest new free market created in the last 25 years.

He is fighting with the #1 market in the World and losing.

He is fighting with the #3 market in the World and not only losing, but accelerating the bankruptcies of American farmers.

He has ripped up a functioning nuclear deal with Iran and has prodded them to restart the centrifuges and unleash their terrorist proxies.

He can&#039;t even spend 5 minutes talking about an infrastructure deal without getting in a huff because somebody claimed he was conducting a &quot;cover up&quot;.

Yet his minions claim he is playing 4D chess. You can fool a lot of the people a lot of the time, so long as those &quot;people&quot; are the extremely gullible ones.</description>

Very amusing - the best bit was when Trump called her &quot;crazy Nancy&quot; then immediately apologized. She is whipping his &quot;calm&quot; ass up and down Pennsylvania Avenue.

He totally lost it in front of a delegation of farmers and ranchers yesterday, announcing nine times that he was &quot;calm&quot; and didn&#039;t throw a tantrum, then made his staff come out one-by-one to insist he was &quot;completely calm&quot;. The farmers and ranchers were &quot;bemused&quot; by his behavior.

Now he is on a witch hunt for &quot;spies who spied on him&quot; and is ripping up legal restraints on the A.G. so he can &quot;prove&quot; there was &quot;spying&quot;.

Very. Stable. Genius.

		<description>&lt;B&gt;Marc Thiessen: Americans don&#039;t want impeachment, but Democrats aren&#039;t listening

The American people are sending a pretty clear message to Washington: They are sick and tired of the investigations into President Trump and don&#039;t want Democrats in Congress to impeach him. But the Democrats aren&#039;t listening.

A Harvard-Harris poll finds that 65 percent of Americans say Congress should not begin impeachment proceedings against Trump. Sixty percent agree with Attorney General William Barr that &quot;the facts and public actions of President Trump did not amount to obstruction of justice, especially since there was no underlying collusion.&quot; And 58 percent believe that &quot;Given the Mueller report ... we should turn the page on investigations of President Trump.&quot;

To put that in perspective, Trump&#039;s job approval averages 42.9 percent. So there are millions of Americans who don&#039;t approve of Trump, but also don&#039;t approve of the Democrats&#039; endless investigations.&lt;/B&gt;
https://www.foxnews.com/opinion/marc-thiessen-americans-impeachment

The facts are clear...

The majority of Americans DO NOT want these endless investigations of President Trump..

The majority of Americans DO NOT want President Trump impeached..

Move on, Democrats..  If not for the sake of your Party, do it for the sake of your Country..</description>

		<description>&lt;B&gt;The Rise of Trump, the Fall of Prejudice? Tracking White Americans&#039; Racial Attitudes 2008-2018 via a Panel Survey&lt;/B&gt;
https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=3378076

So, ANOTHER prediction of ya&#039;all&#039;s, that Trump&#039;s election would foster and increase racial hatred and hatred against minorities, has been proven completely and utterly bullshit..

Again, I have to ask..

Don&#039;t ya&#039;all get tired of being wrong??  :D

		<description>&lt;B&gt;It was interesting to watch both of those people. Adam Schiff is someone who claimed in the previous two years that he had evidence of treasonous collusion with Russia to steal the 2016 election which obviously is not true because we just finished the Mueller report and Mueller who had all the same capabilities and more than Adam Schiff did not find treasonous collusion. 

You have Nancy Pelosi claiming that the obstruction is right in front of us and you can see it with your own eyes. And I think what they are really trying to say is we&#039;re very frustrated that Donald Trump is president and we really wish he were not the president and we really have an angry base who would very much like to see him go. That&#039;s fine. Impeachment is a political process. If they think they have a political case to make for removing him they should go forth with that. But, really this is a difficult situation for them because they have a base that got whipped up into a frenzy through false reports that they participated in and now they are wondering what happened. They put all their cards on this Mueller probe and came up with nothing and it&#039;s very difficult for them to deal with.&lt;/B&gt;

And, apparently, it&#039;s very difficult from the people in here (NEN) to deal with as well..  :D</description>

		<description>&lt;B&gt;Continuing plunge of CNN, MSNBC ratings reveals that fake news is a bad business strategy

The catastrophic ratings decline for both CNN and MSNBC was no temporary blip following publication of the Mueller report. Both cable news outlets had heavily promoted the hoax of Russian collusion with the Trump administration, teasing the hopes of Trump-haters for impeachment and prosecution for treason. Now, those disappointed viewers have gone away, and continue to stay away.&lt;/B&gt;

		<description>&lt;B&gt;When it comes to their make-believe ‘investigation’ of President Trump, the Democrats seem to be employing the same strategy being deployed by the Dems in the presidential race: run all the candidates! Investigate everyone Donald Trump ever spoke to!

Both are signs of desperation. And both will achieve the same end with respect to Donald Trump: nada, rien, nichts, zilch, nothing.

Appearances are not always deceiving, you see. The appearance of Democratic fatuousness and panicked desperation that you see across the fruited plain is not deceptive. You see it everywhere, in their public relations firms — The New York Times, The Washington Post, CNN, MSNBC — as well as in the sudden chaos in the narrative emanating from the Democratic pols and, above all, in the hysterical accusations being traded among Deep State actors like John Brennan, the two Jameses — Comey and Clapper — Andrew McCabe, and others. As Victor Davis Hanson observed, the ‘higher loyalty’ crowd is now behaving like a bunch of school children caught in some naughtiness: ‘He did it, not me!’ It is sad, really. But one would have to be a more upright soul than I not to take some satisfaction in the spectacle. Which brings to mind another mot of Oscar Wilde: ‘One must have a heart of stone to read the death of little Nell without laughing.’&lt;/B&gt;

The Democrat&#039;s comical pursuit of removing a freely, fairly and legally elected President just HAS to be embarrassing to free-thinking Americans here...</description>

		<description>&lt;B&gt;Democrats have positioned themselves well outside the mainstream on the abortion issue.

In Virginia, Gov. Ralph Northam expressed support for legislation that would allow babies who survived an abortion to be killed outside the womb.

“If a mother is in labor, I can tell you exactly what would happen. The infant would be delivered. The infant would be kept comfortable. The infant would be resuscitated if that’s what the mother and the family desired, and then a discussion would ensue between the physicians and the mother,” he specifically said.

Resuscitate the infant only &#039;if that’s what the mother and the family desired’?

That’s infanticide, pure and simple.&lt;/B&gt;

		<description>&lt;B&gt;Hispanics still thriving with the economic growth of Trump era

Democrats are desperately trying to downplay the booming economic success under President Trump. This includes arguing that the economy is not benefiting Hispanics, who will be the largest minority voting bloc in presidential election next year for the first time in American history.

Representative Joaquin Castro said last week, “Wall Street doing well does not mean that a vast majority of Latino families are doing well.” Moreover, Representative Donna Shalala said, “Everybody has to be lifted up, and the president is not lifting everybody up. He is forgetting about the working stiffs that need an increase.” She added, “He is not putting out a message that resonates to people in my community because they know they are not better off.” Representative Raul Ruiz claimed that the constituents in his heavily Hispanic district “are getting by” but “not getting ahead.”

As Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan famously said, “Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but not their own facts.” The fact is that Hispanics are flourishing in the Trump economy. Democrats asserting the contrary is a mere partisan talking point to try to deny Trump the Hispanic support he has earned and which may decide the presidential election outcome next year. Expect Democrats to increase their identity politics attacks in an effort to skew Latinos against Republicans over the next year and a half.&lt;/B&gt;

		<description>&lt;B&gt;Trump impeachment debate &#039;torturing&#039; Democrats, Matt Gaetz tells Sean Hannity

Democrats are &quot;tortured&quot; by the issue of whether to impeach President Trump, one Republican congressman said Thursday in reaction to news that Trump has given Attorney General William Barr the authority to declassify documents regarding the origins of the Russia investigation.

&quot;It&#039;s really strange to hear the speaker of the House question the president&#039;s mental state. What I see is the question of impeachment is torturing the Democratic Party,&quot; U.S. Rep. Matt Gaetz of Florida said on Fox News&#039; &quot;Hannity.&quot;

&quot;If the president needs an intervention I think Nancy Pelosi and the rest of her caucus need to go on &#039;Dr. Phil&#039; and talk about their feelings and figure out how to deal with this question.&quot;&lt;/B&gt;
https://www.foxnews.com/politics/rep-gaetz-impeachment-torturing-democratic-party

It&#039;s really simple...  If President Trump is the threat to this country that Dumbocrats claim he is, then Dumbocrats have a DUTY to impeach...

But Dumbocrats WON&#039;T impeach because they know they have nothing to impeach over and they know that they will get KILLED in the PR war...

So, like the Party slaves they are, Dumbocrats put Party before Country..

Hell, even PAULA agrees with me..  :D</description>

		<description>&lt;B&gt;Trump gives AG Barr authority to declassify documents related to 2016 campaign surveillance

President Trump on Thursday night issued a memo giving Attorney General William Barr the authority to declassify any documents related to surveillance of the Trump campaign in 2016.

Trump also ordered the intelligence community to cooperate with Barr. The memo read: &quot;The heads of elements of the intelligence community... and the heads of each department or agency that includes an element of the intelligence community shall promptly provide such assistance and information as the Attorney General may request in connection with that review.&quot;


&quot;Today, at the request and recommendation of the Attorney General of the United States, President Donald J. Trump directed the intelligence community to quickly and fully cooperate with the Attorney General’s investigation into surveillance activities during the 2016 Presidential election,&quot; White House press secretary Sarah Sanders said in a statement.


&quot;The Attorney General has also been delegated full and complete authority to declassify information pertaining to this investigation, in accordance with the long-established standards for handling classified information. Today’s action will help ensure that all Americans learn the truth about the events that occurred, and the actions that were taken, during the last Presidential election and will restore confidence in our public institutions.&quot;&lt;/B&gt;

		<description>&lt;I&gt;This issue is more of the same: lies and more lies.&lt;/I&gt;

You mean, like the Russia Collusion lie??

Like ALL the lies ya&#039;all have told about President Trump??

Are THOSE the lies you are referring to??

&lt;I&gt;Don&#039;t let Trump bend reality to his false narrative about Democrats not being able to get anything done, because in actual fact it is the Republicans who are guilty of precisely that.&lt;/I&gt;

And that lie as well...

Odumbo and the Dumbocrats had 8 years to fix the economy...

They limped it along and couldn&#039;t do crap with it.

Hell, the Stock Market exploded to new heights JUST ON THE BASIS OF TRUMP WINNING THE ELECTION!!!

You can&#039;t win, Balthy.. The FACTS and REALITY are all against you..</description>

<p><i>Don't let Trump bend reality to his false narrative about Democrats not being able to get anything done, because in actual fact it is the Republicans who are guilty of precisely that.</i></p>
<p>And that lie as well...</p>
<p>Odumbo and the Dumbocrats had 8 years to fix the economy...</p>
<p>They limped it along and couldn't do crap with it.</p>
<p>Hell, the Stock Market exploded to new heights JUST ON THE BASIS OF TRUMP WINNING THE ELECTION!!!</p>

		<description>This issue is more of the same: lies and more lies.

&lt;i&gt;Don&#039;t let Trump bend reality to his false narrative about Democrats not being able to get anything done, because in actual fact it is the Republicans who are guilty of precisely that.&lt;/i&gt;

Yep.</description>

		<description>&lt;B&gt;Trump moves to escalate investigation of intel agencies

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump on Thursday granted Attorney General William Barr new powers to review and potentially release classified information related to the origins of the Russia investigation, a move aimed at accelerating Barr’s inquiry into whether U.S. officials improperly surveilled Trump’s 2016 campaign.

Trump directed the intelligence community to “quickly and fully cooperate” with Barr’s probe. The directive marked an escalation in Trump’s efforts to “investigate the investigators,” as he continues to try to undermine the findings of special counsel Robert Mueller’s probe amid mounting Democratic calls for impeachment proceedings.

Press secretary Sarah Sanders said in a statement that Trump is delegating to Barr the “full and complete authority” to declassify documents relating to the probe, which would ease his efforts to review the sensitive intelligence underpinnings of the investigation. Such an action could create fresh tensions within the FBI and other intelligence agencies, which have historically resisted such demands.&lt;/B&gt;

Dumbocrats are running scared!!

		<description>&lt;I&gt;It didn&#039;t work in 2016 and won&#039;t work in 2020.

Unless the plan is to lose to Trump again in 2020 and then people will really want to vote for Democrats in 2024.&lt;/I&gt;

OR..

If Trump is really Reagan, then we&#039;ll have President Mike Pence in 2024...  :D</description>

		<description>&lt;I&gt;Investigations will only get us so far. We need to develop an independent plan to counteract it before it gets too late to do much at all, or face a very different world sooner than we think.&lt;/I&gt;

Yunno what&#039;s funny??

If, gods forbid, the Democrats ever retain control of government all of this hysterical fear-mongering will disappear..

Putin with be the Dem POTUS&#039;s BFF again and the Dem POTUS will promise to be flexible for Putin again..

Yer so transparent in your Party slavery, Blathy...  :D</description>

		<description>&lt;I&gt;do you view other disasters the same way? was the destruction of andrew the fault of florida&#039;s corruption and failure to invest? was the damage done by katrina the fault of cajun ineptitude? are there any natural disasters that aren&#039;t the fault of the victims?&lt;/I&gt;

Not factually accurate..

FL recovery from Hurricanes is the finest in the nation...  Compare FL recovery to PR&#039;s non-recovery and to NOLA&#039;s tortured recovery..

What&#039;s the difference??

FL had (and has) a GOP government who knows how to take care of business and get things done..

PR and NOLA have Democrat-ish and Democrat governments and all they can do is frak things up and blame others for their own mistakes...</description>

		<description>CRS,

&lt;I&gt;Puerto Rico is not really seeking &#039;disaster relief&#039;, regardless of how the rhetoric is structured.

Puerto Ricans allowed the island&#039;s infrastructure to collapse over the course of several years by refusing to fund maintenance and upkeep, and by refusing to force their citizens to pay utility rates and taxes sufficient to cover the costs of generating electricity, providing clean water, repaving crumbling roads, etc.

The hurricane didn&#039;t cause any of those problems, it just highlighted them, and gave the leaders, and he refuses to a handy excuse to ask the mainland to make up for their years of neglect and corrupt government.

Dumb as he is, Trump recognizes the true nature and causes of PR&#039;s problems, and he refuses to let them get away with blaming the hurricane, when their problems are totally of their own making.&lt;/I&gt;

Exactly..</description>

Right wing parties all over the world have been getting support from Russia, which buoyed by successes in Britain (Brexit) and the US (Trump), have notched up its attacks in Europe, generally.</description>

http://www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddow/watch/russian-agitation-seen-in-european-politics-as-elections-approach-60228165618

Right wing parties all over the world have been getting support from Russia, which buoyed by successes in Britain (Brexit) and the US (Trump) to notch up its attacks in Europe, generally.

And interestingly, everywhere the message is the same: &quot;The media is the enemy, the Right is your friend. Putin isn&#039;t as bad as they tell you.&quot;

And suddenly, former beacons of Democracy like the US and Britain are besieged by nationalist movements. That&#039;s no accident.

We need to see this threat for what it is: a state-sponsored attack, the likes of which we haven&#039;t seen since WWII. Other countries, like China, N. Korea and the Saudis are also jumping in.

So far the Center Left has no response.

Investigations will only get us so far. We need to develop an independent plan to counteract it before it gets too late to do much at all, or face a very different world sooner than we think.</description>

		<description>@crs [3-4],

upon what information are you basing this opinion? i&#039;ve been to the island and have family there - the primary source reports i&#039;ve received differ significantly from yours. places that had perfectly reliable utilities prior to the storm are still crippled years later.

do you view other disasters the same way? was the destruction of andrew the fault of florida&#039;s corruption and failure to invest? was the damage done by katrina the fault of cajun ineptitude? are there any natural disasters that aren&#039;t the fault of the victims?
