    Trump has been ordered to turn over his taxes. The judge said no president, or their family, or their business is immune from criminal prosecution. YIPPY!

    LOL, tell that to Tricky Dick. Either a presidential pardon has meaning, or it doesn't, and congress writes the fucking laws, not some dumb ass judge. The minute Donald Duck resigns, Pence will pardon him for any previous crimes he may have committed. If he is prosecuted, every Libertarian in the country will stock up on ammo. Their wet dream is to destroy the US government, and they have been succeeding for the last twenty years.

    In West Virginia, a wealthy man grew tired of receiving slap-on-the-wrist fines for dumping toxic waste in the nearest ditch. The money didn't phase him, he was just tired of all the media attention, so he funded the next judge's election. When judges start spouting smack like that, you can be sure they are looking for funding or political patrons that can put them in a higher court.

    Note that Donald Duck has accounts in even the Caribbean, and is far from the only billionaire in the US who doesn't pay any taxes. If the US were to crack down on them all, they would simply take their money to someplace like Lithuania, which advertises as a tax shelter for the wealthy. I'd love to hear the Swiss banks laugh in that judge's face.

    Even Moscow Mitch opposes Trump on his Syria pullout.



    Republicans slam Trump's Syria pullout: 'Disaster,' 'Betrayal,' 'Mistake'
    Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., said the "withdrawal of U.S. forces from Syria would only benefit Russia, Iran, and the Assad regime."

    'Disaster,' 'Betrayal,' 'Mistake': Republicans slam Trump's Syria pullout

    excerpt:

    "A long list of Republicans — including several top allies of President Donald Trump — lined up in vehement opposition Monday to the president’s decision to withdraw U.S. forces from the northern border of Syria and allow a Turkish operation there.

    The announcement marked a major blow to the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces, or SDF, which the U.S. relied upon heavily as the most effective fighting force against the Islamic State militant group in Syria — and prompted outrage among GOP lawmakers.

    Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., said in a statement that "a precipitous withdrawal of U.S. forces from Syria would only benefit Russia, Iran, and the Assad regime.""

    Trump tweet October 7, 2019:

    "As I have stated strongly before, and just to reiterate, if Turkey does anything that I, in my great and unmatched wisdom, consider to be off limits, I will totally destroy and obliterate the Economy of Turkey (I’ve done before!)."

    Nobody can eat their own words and backtrack faster than McConnell.

    Rather Bizzare given the timing, and seemingly after one phone call to Erdogan

    Chaos in Syria, Washington after Trump call with Erdogan unleashed Turkish military
    U.S. forces in Syria got an urgent alert Monday morning to pull back. "They were told, 'We're departing the field,'" senior U.S. defense officials said.

    Chaos in Syria, D.C. after Trump-Erdogan call unleashed Turkish troops

    excerpt:

    "He wrote on Twitter Monday that "it is time for us to get out of these ridiculous Endless Wars."

    But later, after an onslaught of Republican criticism, Trump struck a different tone toward Turkey on Twitter: "As I have stated strongly before, and just to reiterate, if Turkey does anything that I, in my great and unmatched wisdom, consider to be off limits, I will totally destroy and obliterate the Economy of Turkey (I've done before!)."

    "Even Trump is starting to realize that maybe he didn't handle this too well, and is maybe trying to walk it back," the official said. "I think you're going to see some backpedaling."

    Last December when Trump abruptly announced he was withdrawing all U.S. troops from Syria, then-Defense Secretary Jim Mattis quit and other senior members of the president's national security team convinced him to reverse the policy. Some of those officials, including former National Security Adviser John Bolton and the former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Joseph Dunford, recently departed the administration."

    I never said Trump was a moron, I said he was a fucking moron-Jim Mattis

    I believe that Dunford's term was up.

    Would you believe he already changed his mind about removing troop from Syria? The stable genius is not what he claims.

    I just saw an article which says he changed his mind again. He's about as stable as a … looney bin resident!

    Polls begin to signal rising impeachment threat to Trump

    Polls begin to signal rising impeachment threat to Trump

    excerpt:

    "Tribal loyalty in contemporary politics makes that a high hurdle. In the Monmouth Poll, for example, only 40% of Republicans said they believed Trump requested a Biden investigation even though the White House-released transcript of his call with Ukraine’s president shows that he did.

    “There are a lot of people who will go to the ends of the Earth to give Donald Trump the benefit of the doubt,” Ayres explains."

    The party of "Hear no evil, see no evil, speak no evil" is rather deaf, dumb, and blind, explaining the state of the world today. Notably, the older and more senile you are, the more likely to vote republican. Fear not, modern science holds the cure to collective stupidity, its just harder than you might think to make everything idiot proof. AI is the future, because there never was any intelligent life around here.

    There's a reason immortality has not been invented yet. Nature has certain demands that must be met first, such as people actually having a life worth preserving.

  15. So long as Republicans have any kind of control, politics are complete bullshit. They are liars, and they don't give a shit about anybody but themselves, and the same goes for their base. They're absolute shit.

    Trump has caved in before when he was heavily criticized by his republican supporters in the Senate – look for him to back away from his decision to leave Syria in the hands of Turkey.

    Donald Duck will either resign within two weeks, or be dragged off by the men in white coats. Firing the NSA department that stores your phone calls is like Tricky Dick attempting to destroy the evidence, by smashing his tape recorder. Somebody in congress must be capable of breaking the news to him gently, that obstruction of justice is an impeachable offense, and destroying our national security in a fit is not going to save him from being raked over the coals over his taxes either. McConnell spouted the obligatory "Never! The South Shall Rise Again!" and immediately back peddled, indicating the asshole is doomed in the senate.

    Republicans don't discuss these things in public, so they don't confuse their members, but you don't need a weatherman or the NSA to know this idiot cannot possibly survive much longer.

    For republicans, denial is only the name of a river in Egypt, and they never bend in the slightest, but break in half completely and decisively. Democrats are going to keep pounding away at this for the next year if they have to, and we can all watch the republican party split in two. You don't need a weatherman to know, when there's trouble in Libertarian Paradise. Nobody acts more indignant than a fucking chicken, and McConnell's blank eyed stares when he's left speechless are priceless. The roaring silence of republicans is their "tell", and the only warning that something is amiss. Like chickens all looking up at the same time to see if the sky is falling. A republican without an opinion, is someone who might actually think for themselves and vote democrat once in a while, so the rest of them scream louder until it becomes pointless.

    When they stop screaming for the most part and just mildly protest and spout absurdities, they already know they've lost. I've got dozens of poems describing the collective behavior of chickens, including one that is 22 pages long. Sesame Street will never be the same again, not when I get through describing American politics. Big Bird has a lie detector in his cellphone, and the judge called him a traitor, accusing him of supporting the Mickey Mouse Club.
