Perhaps - but he won't let that report come out - rather his appointees won't and McConnel won't - for some reason.

One thing we do know is Mueller said No Collusion. And we can bypass proving there are no orbiting teapots in L3.

It's a game, and the Dems are falling into it.

One of the best things the Trump Admin has going for it is that his opponents honestly believe he is inept.

MisterLearnToCode says

his opponents honestly believe he is inept

As a leader - yes, he is inept.

As an honest person able to tell the truth on a routine basis - yes, he is inept.

As a con man and grifter - no. This is the one area he excels in.

The Media becomes more and more unhinged and untrustworthy; their credit is now at an all time low.



I disagree - I think Brennan abused his former office more than anybody else.

The prosecution had no other choice- what do you think would become of a gay black man in prison? Terrible things?

Kakistocracy says

In the meantime, though, this is turning into exactly the sort of scandal Trump loves.

It’s about a black person, so he can be racist.

It’s about a political opponent, so he can be conspiratorial.

And it’s about a celebrity, so he knows there’s a lot of press interest.

Is it a good use of the president of the United States’ time? Of course not.

Will his supporters cheer him on anyway for dipping his totally unbiased fingers into this situation? Probably.

Do I deeply wish I hadn’t gotten out of bed this morning? You know it.

Do you think, given the Police Report and Prosecutor's Summary and Grand Jury Indictments, that Smollett is innocent?

Do you think Rahm Emmanuel and the Chicago Chief of Police are working for Donald Trump?

How long before Smollett dedicates his time and resources to tracking down the 2AM White MAGA Hat wearers, just like OJ's attempts to find the real killers.

Should not have allowed Smollett to get off - now Trump holds moral high ground. As it looks now, raycist is not Trump, but people who allowed a black celebrity get off from a well-deserved punishment.

We all know the left cant help but play the racist card, even when it is pure projection. Take that forecast to the bank

This is gonna play out just like Broward after Parkland.

All the minority superintendents, commissioners, etc. "You questioning our management, unspent school security money, etc. IS RACIST!!!".

Ah yes - fake news meme again - round and round it goes, where it stops, no one knows but it sure won't be at the Oval Office - for anything - ever.

When is that famous "buck" going to make a stop at the desk in the oval office at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue again ? Sometime before November of 2020 I hope.

God only knows it has not been for lack of need or want or deserving.

Justice Department insiders just dropped a massive bomb on Robert Mueller, revealing his Special Counsel team concluded MONTHS BEFORE the 2018 midterm elections there was no proof linking Donald Trump or his campaign to colluding with Russians during the presidential election.

Yet Mueller did not divulge his team’s findings until this week, five months after the 2018 midterm elections.

“The most important portions of the investigation were concluded in August (2018),” a high-ranking Justice Department official said. “(Rod) Rosenstein was briefed and it was common gossip and well-known nothing had been pinned on Trump and it was wrapping up.”

August 2018, in fact, is three months before the Nov. 2018 elections, where and when all of the Democrats running against Republicans for House and Senate seats used Trump’s fabricated ties with Russia as campaign platforms. And they won and won big at the cost of the Republicans. And on the back of a massive lie.

Meanwhile, Mueller sat on his team’s intelligence that cleared Trump of any and all allegations involving Russia and colluding or working with Russia to facilitate the defeat of Hillary Clinton. And likewise, Rosenstein and former Attorney General Jeff Sessions also did not push for Mueller to release the results of his team’s probe.

Here's an interesting leak : Mueller concluded no collusion before the Midterms.

Kakistocracy says

Ah yes - fake news meme again - round and round it goes, where it stops, no one knows but it sure won't be at the Oval Office - for anything - ever.

And the Russian Collusion Conspiracy Theory won't die.

As soon as the report is released, I suspect the Deadenders will pivot to "Well, Mueller is a Republican After All! Cover Up!"

MisterLearnToCode says

just dropped a massive bomb on Robert Mueller

Is that like the "Nune's Memo" that someone on here described in Hysterical Terms as going to end the investigation many many months ago ?

Notice on the interesting leak it say nothing about no obstruction etc.

MisterLearnToCode says

As soon as the report is released

Plenty of time to ponder the contents - plenty of time.

Kakistocracy says

Is that like the "Nune's Memo" that someone on here described in Hysterical Terms as going to end the investigation many many months ago ?

The investigation into Collusion ended in August 2018, according to leaks.

Kakistocracy says

Oh yes, the Hoax Queen's followers will be writing books and posting on Democratic Underground for many, many years. It will still be a truth among hardcore Democrats when I go to collect my first Social Security Check.

MisterLearnToCode says

Is sure as hell didn't end within weeks or even months of the hysterical post now did it ?

Don't rush for the Social Security Check - I'm part of the group that is draining it before you get any and we don't need any more competition.

Kakistocracy says

The scenario will play out exactly as I described

When has that ever happened? lol

You were SURE that Trump was colluding and Muellar would prove this for months.

Latest Excuse: "Dey was wearing WHITEFACE!"

'They could have worn white face': Jussie Smollett lawyer offers bizarre explanation as to why the Empire actor told police his Nigerian assailants were white - and points to old video of one of them wearing make-up to play the Joker as potential proof

Wait a sec: the guy hires two black dudes to stage an attack on a certain day at a certain location but when attacked on said day at a said location by two dudes "in whiteface" he assumes that these are two completely different dudes attacking him "for reals"? Nobody can be THAT stupid, even fucking male bimbo from some soap opera cast.

Remember @Kakistocracy, the wise words of the Golden Child & Savior



I'd advise Clinton, Schiff, Maddow, etc. to stop whinging. Case Closed!

The middle class is vanishing

This is impossible by definition.

Pretty convincing white face, looks Caucasian to me, probably Irish.

You got us, you caught Commandant Tatter.

I almost wish we were just to see a bullet hole put in Colbert and Soros's head.

Without due process of course!

MisterLearnToCode says

OK Jazz here's my definition of Fascism, presented as a factual representation through an illustration devoid of any hyperbole.
Now show me yours!

Ah get some of that Facist.

It's a shame the Liberals in Washington are a bunch of Animal Godless cretins that don't know how to behave, and are only there to obstruct Democracy.
That it has to come down to this.

https://dailycaller.com/2019/03/28/senate-nuclear-option-trump-nominee/

Fuck em in the Ass Commandant Tatter!

And Democrats are St. Mother Theresa

People bitching about FOX news really scare me. They are quite content with the fake news institution as a single cohesive unit bought and paid for by a Nazi Soros.
These are the same people that bitched about the Koch brothers mind you. But as it turned out, those two sorry cock suckers are just one of them. So in the past when they were bitching about the Koch brothers and the FOX news being beholden to them. They were bitching about their own guy, doing their own shit, for their own party.

When will Liberals ever figure out we're not trying to make them happy.

All titles -

Extinction Of The Middle Class
Militarized Police
Corporate Money Rules Politics

are correct in that all these are serious problems. However, explanations under them seem hyper-partisan. For example, why are Koch's singled out? Why not so-called "green" energy businesses which receive subsidies and are not very green and may contribute to hunger in world (corn ethanol)?

jazz_music says

Look at the rest of the article. Click on the link.

Did that. Analysis of police militarization, Secret Trade Agreements and Corporate Media Ownership are the only one that seems to be written without hyper-partisan ventilating.

Edit: if anything will change, it will be if reasonable people on left and right will find common ground and work together on what they agree. For example, left and libertarian right both dislike police militarization and secret trade agreements. Why not work together against those?

jazz_music says

Other people are rapists to so what’s the big deal with having a rape club?

Screaming "A is raping" while B is raping as well seems like a wrong policy. Perhaps we should scream "A and B are raping, arrest both of them".

Actually said today by Smollett's lawyers:

“It is the Mayor and the Police Chief who owe Jussie - owe him an apology - for dragging an innocent man’s character through the mud. Jussie has paid enough.”

They actually said this.

jazz_music says

It turns out General George S. Patton was right in 1945 to compare the Nazi Party to the Republicans and Democrats, because there isn’t as much difference between them as we would like to believe.

Patton was reprimanded, but who knew, after all, that in just a little more than half a century, the Republicans would themselves become Nazis?

Patton thought we fought the wrong enemy after overseeing the Germans and getting to know them. Many think he was killed for his later views.

Quigley says

Dude, have you even ever heard of logic?

DOn't accuse me of logic problems. I wasn't suggesting anything you think I might have been thinking with your logic "skills."

I was just observing a pattern and a coincidence.

First I saw many right wingers posting memes comparing Trump to SMollett. For reasons totally beyond me. No connection, No reason to compare. No reason for meme, I guess other than possibly right wingers think liberals are as embarrassed by Smollett as you guys are by Trump ? (but Smollett is just a dumb actor....Wait...)

Then about a week later, both are suddenly declared to be exonerated of many crimes that many believed they had committed.

It's an ironic coincidence. I now understand a reason for a meme involving both of them.

Except in Trump's case, there is no 66 pages detailing evidence from Uber rides to Check #1063 signed by the defendant to the assailants.

Nor a CONFESSION by the assailants.

I didn't say it was identical. The crime Smollet was suspected of committing was a hoax attack against himself. With Trump it was treasonous conspiring with Russia in the 2016 election campaign. That's why I originally didn't get the comparison, unless it was the guy we are embarrassed bout versus the guy you are embarrassed about.

Very different yes. Quite an astute observation.

MisterLearnToCode says

no 66 pages

Today it came out that the Mueller report was 300 pages, that Barr summarized with very few patial sentence Mueeler quotes, in 4 pages.

marcus says

Today it came out that the Mueller report was 300 pages, that Barr summarized with very few patial sentence Mueeler quotes, in 4 pages.

But since there were no indictments, it's pretty much safe to say there was no Check #1063 written out to the Trump Organization signed by Putin.

Just observing an ironic coincidence. In a period of less than a few days they are both exonerated.

We could probably find others similarities.. Trump says Obama wiretapped him. His own highest level security experts say that's bullshit.

A President lying about another President wiretapping him without ever disclosing why he thinks its true (reminiscent of what he said about Obama's birth certificate for a couple years). Trump is notorious for his lies. Some of them quite huge.

But yeah, it's not as bad as some small time actor I've never heard of hiring some guys to do a fake attack (assuming that's true).
