I’m in that top 5% income bracket. The point is that as a progressive I routinely vote against my own financial interests. As much as the tax cuts benefit me directly I am vehemently against them. I think a surprising amount of people in this income bracket feel the same way. The trick is getting the corporations away…

Which “conservatives” does McFartle actually represent? Her point of view doesn’t actually reflect modern conservatism or the republican party. Williamson, Shapiro, McFartle, they’re all part of a group that claims to represent a large fraction of the population, but in reality no one really thinks like they do. MAGA…

Can anyone clue me in on what Trump’s tweets are in reference to? There’s no context whatsoever!

I’ve also seen it speculated that this is the one thing Trump absolutely did not want to ever happen, because he and Cohen believed that if Cohen was his fixer/dealmaker while also acting as his attorney, anything he and Cohen did or said to one another was protected by attorney/client privilege. If that privilege is…

this is hilarious.

Oh, I hope the money fraud charges are that Trump’s lawyer was stealing GOP campaign funds. Let the old-guard, quietly-racist members of the GOP deal with that mess and see who doesn’t get burned.

My deep conspiracy theory? The Trump campaign was designed as a money laundering enterprise with no real belief it would succeed. Until it did. Now they are in deep shit.

From a lawyer’s perspective it’s pretty jaw dropping. For them to get a warrant for documents that are presumed to be privileged, they need to make a pretty compelling showing that the privilege doesn’t apply because the lawyer is helping his client commit a crime or a fraud. I’m so freaking excited.

It’s also significant because it’s a different US Attorney handling it. Ordering Mueller fired doesn’t fix this for Trump, nor does canning Sessions.

WaPo now reporting Cohen being investigated for bank fraud and campaign finance violations.

if he’s not acting as his attorney, then his communications aren’t protected by attorney-client privilege.

Trump is definitely gonna bomb Syria, isn’t he?

What’s almost as disturbing as having such an ignorant viewpoint is thinking that those memes are so insightful that you just have to share them.

Yes! Because people don’t point this out to gain significance, they point it out to MAKE IT STOP. If you point it out, you can prevent it from happening to others. Tony Robbins made a really dumb argument here.

I’m putting a crisp tenner on the table, by next week, we’ll hear from at least one or more women who’ll have a story about their “interactions” with this poor excuse for a human-person...

What is this coveted status Tony Robbins and George Will seem to think accusers enjoy? These turds think Anita Hill or Rose McGowan or Andrea Constand are walking around with a #MeToo punch card where if you accuse nine high profile men of sexual misconduct, you get a free mani/pedi with the tenth accusation.

F this guy. Seriously. Your boy can’t hire a women because she’s too pretty and he thinks she’ll sue him for harassment? Maybe don’t be a lecherous creepy boss. Problem solved.

One of the quiet daggers to the US influence on the world stage: Everybody else views him as weak and thus sees no consequence to doing what they want.

So pretty much: “Maybe she shouldn’t have said it, but she certainly shouldn’t have suffered any consequences because she did say it!”
