It is now standard operating policy of the DOJ to present manufactured, false, and misleading ‘evidence’ to Grand Juries in order to obtain indictments. Consequently, it should now be standard defense tactics to automatically demand transcripts of Grand Jury proceedings involving their clients’ indictments. On the same vein, yesterday a U.S. DOJ case brought by First Assistant U.S. Attorney Bill Essayli against David Huerta, the president of SEIU West, was dropped. However, it was done with obsequious strings attached. Huerta must be a good boy and stay out of trouble. Which is a bit of a joke, considering that ICE and the DOJ have determined that any opposition to ICE is a criminal act, and Huerta is a staunch defender of immigrant rights.
Clearly, all of Rump's lawyers are seriously out of their depth. Their rush to prosecute someone is leading to sloppy work in hopes that some GOP judge will go, ok. Hell, even THOSE judges are like, please cut the crap. How many cases have they won? Maybe it's 1 but most likely zero. Any lawyer that brought this shit, would be fired from the firm. Maybe Boxwine can take a vacation in rehab and leave us alone.
I wonder if they realize that any trump-directed argument is going to make them look like a moron or if they're too stupid to realize it. Neither is a good choice.
OT: Republicans can't win elections, so they'll steal them.
"Increased armed guards at U.S. Postal Service facilities may signal an effort by President Donald Trump to control the mail before the midterms, scholars and union leaders warn."
I remember one of the rare times I got 86d it was a violent thing, almost killed me. Marched me out of the bar at gunpoint and threw me to the sidewalk. And I didn't even do anything wrong. It was Jeanine reaching over the bar and pouring from the bottles when the bar keep wasn't looking!
I've been 86ed from a bar or two. And as a doorman/bouncer I've 86ed numerous drunks and weirdos, like the woman who went around finishing people's drinks. I did not kill them, just put them out and didn't let them back in.
This story is *extremely* sad, I understand if you can't read it.
Kentucky teen Da'Jon Anthony Hayes-Burr, who defended a girl from sexual harassment, and who survived being stabbed in that incident, was shot and killed
C-SPAN is replaying historical Lindsey Graham speeches all day today in case someone you know finished last in their fantasy football league and still needs to be punished for it
I remember when Jesse Helms passed away. He was a national figure and known internationally for his racist, homophobic bullshit. The press rolled out a similar kind of hagiographic salute to that sack of shit. But, a week or two later, and absolutely no one was mentioning his name ever again. Lindsey's memory will undergo the same fate.
And now for something completely different. Melania Trump behind the wheel of a Cadillac Escalade in 2007. I wouldn't have guessed it was her. The smile threw me off.

With Lindsay Graham gone, the Sunday talking head shows are going to have to run a test pattern for an hour.
Oh I'm pretty sure Ron Johnson will clear his busy schedule to show up and show out. Watch this space.

She said no, no, nooo!

Great assessment! I find them all in contempt!! (The DOJ lawyers, I add parenthetically...)

Guard against who, exactly?
The old people who like to buy collectible stamps. They can get unruly when certain highly sought after sets are released!
The legitimate electorate, silly.
86 47. Come at me, bitches.

Trump: "The fake news goes, 'affordability, affordability.' I say, what's affordability? What's that all about?"

Says the man who's never seen the inside of a grocery store.
no wonder he has to ask that question
"I don't think about Americans' financial situation. I don't think about anybody."
COMMENT: "“Affordability” is LITERALLY what you ran on."
Team Taco, he got your vote. Consider yourself like one of his contractors.
Trump (paraphrased): "I don't know what the word 'affordability' means."
"I have no clue as to what's going on."
"Who are all you people and what am I doing here?"
Towelly?
I'm so high right now.
Paying for your private jet? Your new fleet of Escalades? Your weekend golf outings?
That's our fucking money!

With as many pairs of shoes as Don Snorleone is handing out, Florsheim should rename their company Cement.
They just cannot tear their perverted little gazes from other guys' peepees.
Hunter Biden calls it the "Closetocracy" ... the cabal of gay people working in the administration and in Congress.

I'd rather watch a marathon of My Mother The Car episodes!
Jerry Van Dyke!!
One of the many reasons I don't watch TV.
They should play speeches of him saying one thing during Clinton's impeachment, and then saying the exact opposite thing during Trump's impeachment

NAACP remembers. He wanted to put us on the Gold Standard! He wanted Art Police!
Just like Saint Charlie Kirk.
I have got to wash my 15 year old barn cat that has never been bathed. Might take a while.

Reminds me of Ken Paxton’s shit-eating grin!
Before the Botox froze her face in a permanent rictus.
No key.
It's a modeling gig so that would be understandable.
She smiles when she's not around donald
Like all women.
Somebody should tell her she needs to put on a dress over that slip.
Kidneys much in evidence.
