Trump, May 2017: 100 days of [unintelligible]

"there's a certain irony that the former CEO of exxon mobil is advocating against pulling out" they are thinking the deal sucks anyway so it looks great for them to pretend to want it

Asked about the “covfefe” tweet, Sean Spicer says: “The president and a small group of people know exactly what he meant."

Please, share with the class, you choad.

!!!! @PressSec on Russia/Comey: "Going forward all questions on this matter will be referred to outside counsel."

I can imagine some part of Spicer is very happy to be saying "Gotta talk to the lawyers." And that the lawyers will now be awake 24-7.

sweet, sweet, unlimited billable hours

Can't wait for Trump to try and stiff those guys on that bill too.

do taxpayers pay presidential legal fees?

They're going to use taxpayer money to pay for them, I don't see why he'd even try to stiff them.

xp: lol

I retain faith he'll try and find a way.

I feel like any self-aware person getting involved with Trump in any fashion would be well-advised to put an attorney on retainer pretty much immediately.

You are quite right, Trockasturm Hoar The Ramming Battle Ceraton !

Trump approval rating at 39%, 43% now support his impeachment

It awesome it's been 39 percent or lower for a while.

He hasn't had a single poll with a net-positive approval rating in forever either. Not even Rasmussen, where he's like -14 now.

I wouldn't be surprised if he goes his entire presidency w out ever getting a net positive

It awesome = it seems

I worship Jesus, not Mother Earth. He calls us all to be good stewards of the planet, but doesn't mean I have to care about global warming.

ugh Andrew Weissman was head of the Enron task force, who fucked up every single case they had under his leadership. Skilling and Lay were convicted after Kathy Ruemmler and co took over for him. xp

hey maybe he'll get it right this time lol

The committee has subpoenaed the National Security Agency, the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Central Intelligence Agency for information about what is called “unmasking.” Republicans on the committee have been pushing for a thorough investigation of how the names of Trump campaign officials became exposed in classified intelligence reports based off intelligence community intercepts.

Those subpoenas seek information on requests made by former national security adviser Susan Rice, former CIA Director John Brennan and former United Nations Ambassador Samantha Power for names to be unmasked in classified material.

Barron Trump saw a very long necktie on a heap of expired deli meat in a dumpster. He thought it was his dad & his little heart is breaking

Better to leave Barron out of the donnybrook.

hmm, what else does al franken have on his plate that's possibly even bigger than the question of whether to share a stage with kathy griffin in July? i guess there are the trump investigations with the senate judiciary committee, but...nah, kathy griffin should definitely be his priority

This whole thing is so dumb. I mean yeah it's in bad taste and I agree she should've been fired for it but this whole "will the liberal violence ever end!" thing is so irritating, especially when white supremacists emboldened by Trump are literally murdering people on the street right now. I thought this was the party of "fuck you and your political correctness", the party who gleefully voted in a man who bragged about sexually assaulting women? Are you really so fragile to be trigged by Kathy Griffin, of all people?

of course not, they just see an opportunity to attack the enemy and get some more of those sweet sweeeeeet librul tears

And put a woman out of a job!

it's a win-win!

Pfft.

Intel Cmte aide says subpoenas on "unmasking" would have come from Nunes "acting separately" from Russia probe w/o consent of minority

I suppose that's his way of doing something while recused?

Uh, Portland gonna be fun on Sunday:

Yay, the Feds will be here

Kathy Griffin should be fired for being unfunny, not for the bloody head.

a 'free speech' rally in defense of someone who murdered innocent people in cold blood is going to end well

local media keeps pointing out a guy who has been too fucking tired to be governor of Iowa is now our ambassador to China

good luck usa

these free speech rallies are just straight up trolling/librul tear gathering exercises

that being said I agree w the tactic of countering them with (hopefully larger) anti-fascist rallies

the head was the only funny thing she's done since Newsradio went off the air
