In our inevitable dystopian future, when Sergey Kislyak is the President and lives in The Red House, we better hope we get a hero like THIS GUY. Alexey Navalny, your new boyfriend, is the Russian Jason Bourne. Except he's real!!!! As an activist, lawyer and leader of the Progress Party, Navalny has spearheaded Russian opposition to Vladimir Putin. This week he was sentenced to yet another 15-day stint in jail for resisting arrest.
Possibly Rep Walter Jones. His district is coastal North Carolina, with pretty old fashioned small communities. Hangs with the Freedom Caucus but he's an old-fashioned conservative, supported by locals. Fought off a Bushite GOP challenge last election who tried to call him a liberal. Always votes against budget bills. Among first to disavow Iraq. Constitutional crank. Often breaks with party. Demanded that congressmen who've committed "misdeeds" withdraw from leadership positions. Held Jeb Bush responsible for the Iraq War. Actually said Trump should "follow Clinton" in getting rid of Citizens United. Has worked with Dems on campaign finance reform. Voted nicest congressman by DC staffers and one of the hardest workers.
There's a lot to object about the old kook, but he'd have no problem at all attacking corrupt Republicans. Kos summary: http://www.dailykos.com/sto...
I don't think so. I mean Tillerson is god knows where and doesn't take the media with him, so even if we knew where he was he couldn't say anything because no one could report it.
Her name is Svetlana, but the yachts are named "Fotinia". Svetlana is a pseudo-Slavic name invented by a 19th century poet (means "the fair one"). Fotinia is the church name the bearers of that dirty pagan name get when christened. The Medvedevs, are, of course, major Christianist wingnuts.

Funny how guilty it makes you look, isn't it? He can't even pretend he was doing important things, because he hasn't done anything.
> in #Russia today
Or should I say Russia Today? Nice job Tillerson, I'm sure Putin got the reference.
That's the big question.
Thank you, Lamash! He sounds like the kind of old-fashioned Republican my Dad would have liked.

Baby kitties!!!!!1!!111!!!!!!
Do they need taller chimneys, like the Copper Cliff superstack?
The wall is going to keep out diseases, including those with hereditary origins, so there's really no need for research for medical cures anymore.
Sigh. Why am I not surprised that the people who stand to lose everything by this godforsaken wall aren't being talked about.
I wonder if that makes an acronym in the original Russian?
You took the drawn out pronunciation right outta my mouth...
Is this the earliest any administration has invoked "executive privilege"?
Thanks, I needed that. :)
So. WTF!? Twitter is now our Secretary of State!? Fucking Twitter??
