Are you idiots trying to split hairs on who actually dialed the phone??

This has been part of the story from the get go. People have tried to explain it to you multiple times. Why are you just figuring this out? It's not splitting hairs. It's the difference between bugging/'wire tapping'/spying on the Russians or bugging/'wire tapping'/spying on Trump. That's what Nunes walked back on his claims a day after his public leak to the press.

If there is a warrant to search my neighbors house for drugs, and I'm over there shooting up or just eating dinner, I can't say that the police are targeting me when they show up.

"Hey Romney Democrats, the 80s called. They want their foreign policy back."

Of course, back then half the Democrats were skeptics about the USSR=Evil Empire thing.

How about testimony for a fewer ass rapes a week in prison?

Is this the same Paper that "outed" Pew Die Pie as a Nazi because they were butthurt he has more views on his one-man channel than the WSJ has on their social media?

Well, lets see what he has to say.

Not bad for a first day . . . After getting stopped out of my silver I was looking for another entry in something.

Wasn't too interested in getting into ARLP given its topping out at ~$24 late last year, but yesterday's pop piqued my interest.

Seems like the Trump people taking over energy policy hasn't been priced in yet, or maybe it has -- as other coal suppliers will be given a new lease on life, increasing ARLP's competition perhaps.

I don't know anything, but I think this week was a good entry (yesterday especially!)

Media dragged out the RICO Act the laughable "Logan Act" bullshit

Do you support the law or not? or only the laws the you like?

WaPoIsHitler Lipsovitch says

Even so, there was miscommunication and Trump had to let the incredibly capable Flynn go

Capable of lying to the VP?

WaPoIsHitler Lipsovitch says

We MAY need a dictator, as the Establishment and their Court Historians and Heralds will always smear a reformer until they're removed.

Be careful what you wish for, you may get it. Trump is a reformer of what? With his koch brothers wet dream cabinet? Really, you want to play that hand? I would fold if I were you.

WaPoIsHitler Lipsovitch says

Now, do you believe that Trump is a Russia agent, and after more than a year's time, including not only most of the Media and Oppo Research, but ones driven by the FBI executing FISC wiretaps, do you have any evidence (not unverifiable anonymous claims about Hookers and Golden Showers, or Real Estate Deals for which there is absolutely not a shred of evidence, even circumstantial) that justifies further investigation?

Apparently the FBI believes it does. Could you give them a call and tell them to stop because you believe there is nothing to investigate?.

I'm going to call this monkey business "a shred of shadenfreud hope for the hopeless losers" which will shortly turn out to be a Trump orchestrated media coup whereby the establishment Russia phobes will be made to look even more foolish, if that is possible.
I'm waiting to see! And I have popcorn.
IWRONG hasn't been right once these last two years so what's your chances of banking on him this time? LOL

Immunity from assfuckution! Every ass needs this kind of protection.

When your ass is on the line, every hair, bristle and dingleberry is sacred!

Another possibility is the DNC holds back the hacker server because they wiped that sucker clean right away the moment they thought the FBI would ask for it - or even after.

You mean, with a cloth?

Given the Koch Brothers hate his guts, opposed his candidacy, and funded #NeverTrump, his Primary competitors one after the other in an attempt to stop him, and the fake "Freedom Caucus" whose members promise immigration reform yet always finds an excuse not to do anything of substance when it comes to a vote, you can forget them.

Given that something like half of his cabinet and pence are big parts of the koch bros network I don't think they are too unhappy with him any more. Trumps commitment to environmental deregulation, privatization, corporate tax cuts, etc., etc. gives the koch brothers their first hard on in years. They spiked the health care bill because they only wanted a repeal and nothing else was acceptable. They will spike any serous immigration reform because there is no way they want cheap labor shut down. After that the money tap is on full force to implement trump policies.

Jump over the deep state chasm to the conclusion of your choice.

Why? It seems we are neutralized and divided by fake news and manipulations. Speaking of fake news: Why did Trump carry on for so long about Obama being born in Kenya?

Why does no College student know who William Wilburforce is?

He only kinda ended a universal inhumane practice that has been going on since the dawn of Agriculture.

But they all know who Maya Angelou is.

I'm much more worried that there are college educated, middle aged professionals, many of them in roles of authority, many of them in the Media, who are gobsmacked a male employer (worse, politician) won't meet with women after hours without his wife present and can't think of any valid reason why that might be.

That's a real sign that America is doomed.

That sure wasn't what RyanCare was about. It was about keeping Obamney Insurance Subsidies alive, still without any cost control mechanisms, with a little extra sweetener of transferring the penalty from the IRS to the Insurance Companies themselves.

Trump is a populist struggling with a Republican Establishment who never wanted him, against a Democratic Establishment that also doesn't give two shits about the middle and working class, only a different set of Oligarchs. I can't imagine the Democrats of the 50s, 60s, 70s, or 80s doing anything but trying to the current H1Bs entirely.

Republicans: "Muh Resource Extractors"
Dems: "But Muh IT Corporations"
Both: "Muh Finance, Insurance and Real Estate!"

If the Dems were "Really" worried about Russian Hacking, they'd turn over the DNC Server (provided it isn't wiped beyond recovery with 10+ passes each using a different method and mechanically destroyed after that) to the FBI, AND great Flynn immunity to talk.

Their interest is to keep their evidence-free, but only effective, smear going.

The reason the Republicans who have total control are allowing the hearings to include Russia is that they'd much prefer Pence than Pesky Populist Trump.

Moral of the story is to never fall under the mercy of another man who can do as he will with impunity because you will find out, as did the jews, there is something deeply wrong and hypocritical inside people who will run a murderous racket if left unchecked. --and feel perfectly justified about it too.

This is unfortunately very true.

I doubt that the self-righteous assholes who virtue-signal by calling for all criminals to die would apply their sentences to those criminals who murdered the slave babies by feeding them to alligators. Somehow, I think they would let those criminals off the hook.

After watching that video, I'm spending the next hour watching cat and rescue videos on YouTube in order to get the taste of barf out of my mouth.

Oh wait it's CNN, poison the well! Oh and the reporter is black too! Obviously fake news.

"And Waiter, the food is awful!"
jazz music says

When fact checking got involved they found the newspaper: it was the National Enquirer!

"And there's not enough of it on my plate!"

Has CNN been busted with fake news? YES.

Has the National Enquirer ran scoops that are 100% true? YES.

RIght, that was exactly what I said. Only a total repeal would be acceptable to the koch brothers machine. Who do you think the freedom caucus is and who do you think paid to put them in office?

Is that Renee Zellweger?

Give it up. Trump was 100% behind the new healthcare bill and 100% on board with the Establishment.

Please tell me how his tax plan is populist.
Please tell me how gutting the EPA is populist.
Please tell me how giving up people's privacy (Internet history) is populist
Please tell me how increasing civil forfeiture is populist.

You fell for a shyster in populist clothing.

Donald Trump gets worse marks than Barack Obama at the start of their presidencies

Wow really? You mean in america where nobody will publicly criticize a black person and where it's highly popular to criticize rich WHITE men?

IDIOTS!
It's easier to HATE everyone than focus on a small group.

Yeah because Paris is so much better.

Just think of all the "terror bucks" we are losing, not to mention free demolition of crusty old infrastructure.

Reinstatement of pistol dueling to resolve issues between couples and restore honor to the process.

That all doesn't matter as long as you think he is pretty, really really pretty!

What the fuck do they have against dogs?

>Why on Earth would the GOPe repeal Heritage Foundation legislation?

The GOP effort in the 1993 period (the GOP's counter to the Clinton reform proposal) foundered on how to pay for the premium supports for people having to buy insurance.

here's the tax cuts in the AHCA:

It's those splooging dick selfys, you'd think O'Reilly would learn.

These "accusations" are professional get rich quick schemes. Cell phone recordings should be required for proof, everybody knows how to turn on their mic on their phones. Also who takes anonymous calls anymore? Don't take them and you don't have to "suffer" from anonymous phone wankers. Boo hoo.

PCGyver says

Then why did they settle out of court with NDAs?

Because the publicity in the tabloids and "media" for any trial of that nature is far more damaging to a large company than paying a settlement. These extortions happen regularly also in high-tech companies, paying off females that have worked close enough to higher management. Rarely there is any substance to those claims. In fact these payments are already factored in by companies in their expense forecasts depending on what the quota is.

The issue that we are all divided on is you are either for slavery or against it.

If you are against slavery that atuomatically puts you in the category of being a John Locke LIBERAL Since you are subscribing to his philosophy and I quote:

Slavery still exists?
Please, no-one remind Jazz what century we live in. You can't even buy this kind of entertainment.

Marxist commie propaganda. The Demcorats were the slave owners.

Hey Jazzhands, Read the Bottom Capitalized part of the Caption.

Where in Dixie is Ceylon? And why are the Negro Slaves wearing Indian-style Sari-type things?

jazz music says

You right there are actually trying to normalize the fact that Trump saw Cruz' father involved with JFK murder AND REPEATED THAT publicly, knowing that he read THAT IN THE ENQUIRER? And he even covers it by saying "I read it in the newspaper?"

How many Journalists repeated the lie that Russia hacked the Power Grid? And that to deny that was to deny a proven fact?

America just had it's first Black President, and gave him 2 terms, proving that we're a Racist Country.

Truth about Immigration and Refugees: It's about crushing wages and using a Strategy of Tension.
