I could have used this list when I was a supervisor at a call center.

I thought that Crurivastator was Leon Phelps' favorite brandy.

Such a graph would probably have a pretty strong overlap of his tweets being within 5 minutes of a Fox News show ending.

It's @drvox if you want to track them down; it's a pretty good case he makes.

I think the evidence is leaning that it just emboldened people; there's leaks coming almost simultaneously with whatever this hour's cover story is. There's the leak about Rosenstein threatening to quit for being made point on firing Comey, and that Comey had asked for more resources last week, right when Trump

Did you see the tweets by David Roberts yesterday? He lays out a pretty plausible explanation very similar to what you're saying. Basically it's not that Trump's covering up the investigation, it's that any time Comey was on TV, and it was alot, it was to talk about a scandal that made Trump look bad. So basically the

He was goin through some stuff, man.

Well, technically somebody had to write "JUST IMPROV THIS SHIT" on every page of the script.

That really should be the response to any time a pundit has the vapors about something untoward done in protest of Republicans.

Modern Republicans want to dismantle government and privatize everything.

Pioneers in "going green", many chose to walk instead! Like in Birmingham!

I believe it was right across from or near Apple Studios. They needed a cover, ran out, did a walk across the street and got that pic. It's been replicated other places as well.

Yeah I definitely forgot that. So really it's go over to a News channel while they still have recognition, then when they inevitably say something out of line, leave for a think tank job, parlay that into an editorial column, then hitch a ride on the next administration.

Whew, I need a smoke after that. Kudos.

"Just imagine what Hillary would have done. In fact, let's investigate her some more."

There's something so infuriating about how Pence just calmly lies. Probably because the media buys it. "What a nice man! How dare you say he's lying! He's just simple country folk!"

This debacle has convinced me that if Trump does resign it's going to come completely out of the blue, just some random afternoon he disrupts scheduled programming, announces he's quitting, and then boards a jet to Russia. And it will be because he couldn't get the cap off his ketchup bottle or some shit.

Yeah, "inner circle" here means "Jeff Sessions". Also I thought it'd pretty much been moving forwards for just one week, basically since Comey's testimonial last week. And I said this elsewhere but I guarantee this overreach was spurred by the AHCA "success" last week since that's perfectly within Trump's cycle of

The problem there is will it shift to the left for the 2018 wave, but then burn itself out in time for the 2020 elections?

My take is that he decided to do this, discussed it with his very narrow inner circle, none of whom opposed it, and then acted on it, catching his extended circle—including, apparently, his own spokespeople—offguard. That's how it's being reported.
