And Spicer’s comment at press briefing “From what I’ve read, he has filed appropriate forms with the Department of Justice” 

From the header photo all I can see is classic SNL - it may have been something like “Jane, you ignorant slut”. And the retort “You pompous ass” also looks like it would’ve applied lol

There is a significant component of emotional abuse that is part of the CO$, just as in cults...and in abusive relationships. Your question touches on an important causal factor that is also related to the common “why do abuse victims stay?” (besides financial reasons or fear).

I also find it interesting that while Sessions volunteered that convoluted statement, Franken’s actual question at the 3.30 mark went unanswered: “If there is any evidence (of communications) what will you do?” Not only did he not ask if Sessions had communications himself, he wasn’t even asking if Sessions was aware…

“It’s the wearing of the mantle that causes my suspicion.” and your other post “Be cautious of people who advertise anything too much.”

wtf. I’m at a loss for words at that link.

Stars for 45*

It was fascinating for the truth-hiding from both perspectives - the atrocious acts committed by the COS (and similarities to Trump & Co)... and also individuals, faced with such cognitive dissonance that they willingly hide from truth and avoid it. It is so sad the dependence that Scientologists have, the idea of…

Potus is the guy who talks about “the cyber” so I speculate that dialup might actually be a novelty for him... At press conferences he refers to what will be written up “tomorrow” - the concept of the immediacy of online reports (or even tv?) seems to elude him. His myopic view of the world is staggering.

Yeah it was a mess. I read about the official plan being to flag someone down from production - those guys are so task-focused, we could see them taking charge on stage, no care about the people or the lights. And Kimmel was lost in the surprise of the moment.

Oh I understand that - though in press interviews last week the “what if” topic came up and he acknowledged it would be their responsibility to manage as expediently as possible. If he’d been properly doing what the firm is hired for, the rescue-mission in front of millions wouldn’t have been needed.

While they’re both still generally accountants, in actual fact he is fairly senior within the organization - Chairman of their US Board and a Managing Partner. I don’t know what her title is. But his level of seniority would certainly suggest that he has more than enough experience and authority to handle that…

It’s incredible, tremendous, terrific, yuuuge. Those people aren’t in intelligence for nothing, they know what they’re doing. I was so impressed reading that piece with the multi-level plants and leaks. And then contrast with all the old-school shady Trump associates - Lol

This is a fantastic article on the leaking - some of which is part of coordinated preservation tactics to ensure the intelligence isn’t lost  https://www.nytimes.com/2017/03/01/us/politics/obama-trump-russia-election-hacking.html

That’s an interesting point. And then, whether it was her choice or a Hollywood woman/age thing, in the 90s she had a slight downturn - whereas he directed a few features (Bulworth was great), hooked up with Madonna and married Annette Bening. The 90s were a fresh decade for him, despite both being in their 50s-60s.

He also has a tone I call ‘wisdom of benevolent buddha’, it’s slow and saccharine. I grew up listening to the vocal stylings of a sociopath & pathological liar and can’t last long with POTUS.

I think that’s the cat adopted by her husky pack, they go everywhere together lol

It makes complete sense if you’ve known sociopaths/malignant narcissists. They get off on ‘duper’s delight’ - walking a very fine line that would seem brazen beyond all comprehension, and also basically telling people to their faces exactly what’s going on, yet still being able to pull off a con. One could say they…

I believe it. But I don’t think they counted on just how much of a loose cannon he is...even if they pull him out soon, I’m afraid his rhetoric has created such unrest that it’s past the point of no return.. And of course this lowlife still hasn’t mentioned his unhinged fan who took out 6 people with the attack at a…

Thanks for the link, somehow I am not surprised though I am unsettled at how much his “empire” resembles the charade behind the charlatan Wizard of Oz.
