I have no idea if the CIA did that - it was clearly an just an example of a far deeper level of interference that the sort of proxy-war shenanigans the went on during the Cold War. And if you’ve done even a cursory study of that region, you might’ve noticed how they responded when Hitler invaded - the mind-boggling…

To address your second point first, the cynic in me thinks Fox News & Breitbart & Rush, et al would rally the rednecks and racists and neo-nazis to arm up & literally go to war to keep power, but I may be pessimistic on that.

I don’t think we’ll _ever_ get to that particular level of throwdown on Trump, no matter what the investigations reveal. Why? Well, let’s say the investigators or leakers actually drop evidence that Russians - either direct gov’t forces or contracted black-hats - really did rig our election. What then? First, the…

Why? Because those billionaires then give some fraction of that money _back_ to the council members. The council can’t _directly_ steal the taxpayers’ money & put it in their own pockets, so the billionaires perform a needed service and launder that theft, for a small percentage of the gross.

Holy shit, what a failure of a human being.

Was this... supposed to be... funny?

Call it what it is:

Trump is exactly who we (and _he himself_ for that matter) told you he was all along - an emotionally crippled man-child whose single talent is selling himself. The very idea that he would take advice from a subordinate - who couldn’t _possibly_ know more about any subject than Trump himself, otherwise _he’d_ be the…

Seriously. This is the 21st goddamn century.

I don’t know that Trump’s got “bigger” things to worry about here. When you get caught scamming Republicans, they either sue you or double down to avoid admitting they made a mistake by ever trusting you in the first place. When you get caught scamming Putin, you get a nice cup of Polonium Tea...

Sadly, the simple answer to your headline is:

So, how is the lawyer going to play off his beating the crap out of the other guy?

Wow, defensive much? And writing so far into the wee hours of the morning... you’re clearly a busy adult doing busy adult things. Actually, no - you’re an arrogant douchecanoe with know-it-all syndrome. Guess what? Other people do also know things and have experiences too. And while I’ve stated real-life possible…

Tuck your penis back into your shorts, pal. The damage here has _nothing_ to do with any specific problems in the F-35 program, nor does it have to do with FAR violations. I have, in fact, read government contracts, and even PM’ed a few. And I know how ridiculously easy it is for even an honest misunderstanding to…

For someone who values “real” military blogs (whatever that means) you clearly know very little about the the sort issue that crop up in military contracts. From now on, if the government so much as blinks at Lock-Mar - or ever tries to dump the F-35 for Boeing’s alternative - they can go immediately into civil court…

The entire Lockheed-Martin legal staff just had a collective mass orgasm. The lawsuits from this will probably double the entire program cost... Trump is such a fucking amateur.

So does that mean if a pregnant woman walked up to the state capitol and shot this idiot in the face, would it be the fetus that gets prosecuted for murder, since the woman can’t be held responsible?

Just a pet peeve, but if it’s magnetic, then it’s probably not “solid” wood...

Wow. This wouldn’t even get a passing grade from an undergrad journo school. Breitbart really does take everyone who couldn’t get a job _anywhere_ else...
