WHAT I'M HEARING FROM THIS IS THAT WE'RE RUNNING LOW ON COCAINE.

PERHAPS WE SHOULD BUY SOME MORE COCAINE?

In other words, they can trace the cash, and they have the admission of detained Talibanis, but they don't have a verbatim transcript of the deal with the Russians, so WHO CAN EVEN SAY?

Chrissake, defendants are convicted in criminal courts by the beyond-a-reasonable-doubt standard everyday on less.

Wasn't this numbnuts Ratcliffe a prosecutor once upon a time?

That isn't, wasn't and never will be a "pull-rope". Why? Because it's a running knot that if you stick your hand in it, will close on your hand and you'll fight to get it out. So you would never use one in this situation, and if you did, it'd close up within a day of use, and have to be re-tied. Therefore, this is recent, and deliberate. It has emphatically NOT "been there for months". A bowline or stopper knot would be there for months quite happily. I call bullshit...

They have to make sure the idiots and the racists show up at the polls if they want to get even close to stealing the election, so look for the campaign to keep them fired up until election day.

Intel isn't bazeball. It's bassettball, as in slam dunk on WMD, from Medal of Freedom winner, George Tenet.

Right. They might squeak by convincing people that there was a reason why Trump didn't know up until now. But now he knows. He could probably end most of this by just a statement condemning Russia and telling them to stop.

Which just makes the case for him being beholden to Russia even stronger, because it looks like he's going to just continue to deny it's happening and go ahead with shit like cramming Russia back into the G7.

"Hello Vladimir, hello. So, we are both great leaders so I will get right to the point. Can I get some of that money, for what the fake press is saying are dead Americans? Look the way I see it, I told them about using cleaning products to fight The Covid, and surely many many Americans did, because I am a very respectable leader, one of the best, not as good as you of course, but one of the great ones, and so that should count for something, right? I mean, look at all the deaths happening here, those numbers are great. Really coming up. Which could be worth quite a lot, to you. Hello, Mister Putin? Did the call go bad? Hello sir??"

The problem here is that if we had adults in charge, they wouldn't be an issue, just an annoyance. Republicans by caving into Trump have given him power over us

... yeah yeah yeah, ok, whatev. I get it.

YOU get it.

EVERYBODY gets it.

So some low-rent β€œI was a College Republican so I never got laid in my twenties”* intern screwed the pooch.

ALERT THE MEDIA!!!

All that means is that She/He/It (pronounced β€œSheeeeHeeeeeIttttt”) google-image-searched for β€œmonuments /christian/significant” and came up with the world's most famous, and voluminous DIME-STORE DASHBOARD FLUORESCENT JEEEBUS.

(Well, DUH? Aren't most of our β€œI don’t care if it rains or freezes” Jeeebus’s made in Vietnam anyway? (Stole the contract form South Korea (trust me on that)?)

Then point, the significance, the meaning of this particular TRUMPFAIL?

That the GOP, desperately Remora-ing Trump, just can’t take the time, invest the energy, nor pay the attention (not to mention the money) to do some simple FACT-CHECKING on what they put out to support The Bastard.

Obvious? Very.

But, then, what is the significance of that?

Well ... the significance of THAT is that the Trump Regime’s people - from campaign intern to Member of the Cabinet - are selected to the same standards and with the same care and consideration as was the intern who screen-grabbed* that particular Iconic Jeebus shot.

So ... among a thousand, thousand other matters, this you can rely on ...

... THAT process is, essentially, the process by which, for one horrible example, Betsy DeVos formulates Public Education Policy.

Dig it.

And ...

Be Afraid. Be Very Afraid.
