The reason Sessions gave for firing McCabe was “lack of candor.” Lack of candor? Lack of fucking candor!? This coming from Jeff “I do not recall” Sessions is fucking rich. The coming from the administration of a guy who openly bragged about lying to Canada’s PM and not even being able to sell the lie.

It blows my mind that financial advisors not only don’t have to have their client’s best interests at heart, they fought the rule trying to get them to, and somehow people are still using them.

Zinke’s horribly pronounced “Konnichiwa” was not only an example of racism, it was the same kind of racism (though with less dire an outcome) as what led to the internment camps Hanabusa was talking about in the first place. Answering a question about a racist atrocity using the same brand of racism takes a special

What the heck does Stormy know? Trump is now threatening her with $20M in damages if she doesn’t keep her mouth shut. Sing, Stormy, sing! You’ve got a good lawyer.

It’s also very possible there aren’t any emotional fissures between them at all and this is simply a business transaction to move their assets into her name before they’re frozen or seized. Neither is contesting anything which means they probably had everything worked out before hand. Now that’s not terribly unusual

Yeah, that’s probably what scares me the most. That and voters who, even after this circus, will refuse to vote for someone who’s “okay” but not perfect. Shows up here in the comments a lot, and I completely get the frustration because decades of compromises on important things has moved the entire country enough to

Pence has Flynn’s dirt all over him, so don’t worry!

Pence is already dirty— don’t worry about him, he gets dragged down into whatever Russia drainhole Trump & Bannon & Flynn go down.

Why is Bannon fascinated with a historical loser like Mussolini? The idiot rose to power, then was hung because he was such a fat idiot.

She’s allowed to testify against him even if they are married.

That is even assuming Trump doesn’t decide he’ll just, y’know, stay in power. He’s president, right, can’t he just pardon himself?!

The thing is that it’s usually not so brazen as whipping it out. The rich and varied ways we get harassed is mind blowing.

Hot take: if Vanessa Trump didn’t know anything, she wouldn’t have filed for divorce until AFTER Trump got kicked out of office.

To use the sophisticated political analysis of Dungeons & Dragons, Trump is Chaotic Evil, Pence is Lawful Evil. Chaotic Evil rages and rails all over the place, achieving very little on purpose but potentially causing great harm by accident. Lawful Evil knows what it wants and it knows how to get it. It’s dangerous on

I think that if Pence is implicated and or resigns there will be a palace coup by the republicans to put Ryan in power to avoid a democratic president as a result of impeachment. As for what happens after all the dust settles, our differences will become bottomless chasms. 

We lost all integrity electing bush twice. Obama tried to get it back but that ship has long since sailed.

This comes as absolutely no surprise as Trump has the mindset of a Mafia Don...an incompetent one but still like a Don.

After Hawaii Rep. Colleen Hanabusa told a moving, disturbing story about her grandparents’s experience in internment camps, Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke decided to respond by saying, “Konnichiwa.”

You know, before #MeToo, I thought whipping one’s dick out in front of women absent a specific request to do so was something only creeps in trench coats did in public parks and on the subway. I thought it was, you know, somewhat rare. Now I find out, to my amazement, that it seems there isn’t a single profession
