What is wrong with you?

He wasn’t really thinking of his daughter when he pulled that shit. I really think vengeance is a solipsistic bullshit move. 

This is a late comment, and I’m by no means a Klobuchar fan (because she’s weirdly cruel). But I’ve had a number of women bosses. And the most effective ones were cutthroat and stingy with praise or recognition, and absolutely programmed to shield themselves from blame for their mistakes. I had a boss who shamed and

Who would he pardon? Giuliani? Pompeo?

Stone? Seriously? He’s absolutely toast. His efforts for the MAGA campaign were too esoteric for Donald. With his unfortunate tattoo and headshape, he will be seen as a bad pawn. DJT is going to forget he existed.

Well, there were dozens of things ostensibly done for poor straight white men...

What you just said, PUT IT ON A BILLBOARD.

I’m never going to buy a gun, but I’m willing to learn about them and how to use one just to shut these idiots up about why assault weapons bans are bad. It’s a real point of pride for them that libs don’t understand their weapons. I just want to rob them of any claim to expertise.

You’ve been listening to Robert Evans? 

THIS. IS. BULLSHIT. Oh my god, this judge sucks—I dread hearing what kind of sentences he’s been doling out to young black plaintiffs if this is what he does to a tardy 21-yr-old juror. I served on a jury a few years ago, and one time I overslept. While speeding to the courthouse on my bike, I panicked a bit over how

Not exactly. I think he was just an army NCO in charge of communications for Trump at Mar-a-Lago. Absolutely disgusting and very bad for security, though.

“For no reason.” So much barf. From day one, the Trump transition was essentially a bunch of baffling instances of sincere cabinet officials getting blown off by clueless, arrogant Trump people, who closed themselves off for secret meetings. They came in with a siege mentality, not wanting anyone to learn anything

But according to the linked article, it’s up to the ICIG *alone* to determine whether the complaint is of urgent concern. Why were Barr and the OLC privy to it at all? I have to think Maguire was knowingly subverting the law.

What I don’t understand is why the ICWPA requires the IG to submit a credible, urgent WP complaint to the DNI before sending it to the appropriate congressional committees. Why doesn’t the statute anticipate/include contingencies for this very type of subversion when the subject of the complaint is the person who

Which, in my understanding, is illegal. What is the remedy for this? 

For millionth time, no! Money will be useful to them until well after they and their heirs pass peacefully in their tropical compounds.

I think it’s two things. 1) She drives ratings by being utterly loathsome and creating drama. And 2) this being America, there are enough people who support her shit viewpoints (and the “relatability” of an heiress drinking Jack Daniels at the shooting range after a massacre), she helps draw a variety of daytime

The brain may be the sexiest organ, but guys like these do not have or understand emotional intelligence.

I think it’s more likely that Mattis naively tried to talk him out of something by citing an ammo shortage. Then regretted it. Everyone who stepped into the Trump administration thinking they could be a force for good was absolutely deluded. 

He hates being president, but it’s his fig leaf. I’ve never seen anything so pathetic.
