Again, Wittes (Lawfare guy) and Comey are close friends, and he tweeted something similar shortly before news of the Comey memo broke, so something's up.

Meanwhile, Alfred's congressman again

GOP @RepCurbelo says "we need this independent counsel," Congress "also has to allocate additional resources" & "appoint a select committee"

xpost I think he's just worried about lyme disease

(Forgive me if I get a little Shakey, but I'm not exactly shedding a tear.)

When things like this happen, WE ARE ALL SHAKEY.

haa xp

Separately, but of course

Fox News seems to have made brief mention of Ailes' death, but is now doing a human interest story on a woman who married her surgeon.

Michael Flynn and other advisers to Donald Trump’s campaign were in contact with Russian officials and others with Kremlin ties in at least 18 calls and emails during the last seven months of the 2016 presidential race, current and former U.S. officials familiar with the exchanges told Reuters.

The previously undisclosed interactions form part of the record now being reviewed by FBI and congressional investigators probing Russian interference in the U.S. presidential election and contacts between Trump’s campaign and Russia.

Six of the previously undisclosed contacts described to Reuters were phone calls between Sergei Kislyak, Russia's ambassador to the United States, and Trump advisers, including Flynn, Trump’s first national security adviser, three current and former officials said.

Conversations between Flynn and Kislyak accelerated after the Nov. 8 vote as the two discussed establishing a back channel for communication between Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin that could bypass the U.S. national security bureaucracy, which both sides considered hostile to improved relations, four current U.S. officials said.

brace yourself ;;

One last scoop from Gabriel Sherman

Several days ago, Ailes called a friend and said, "Well, if you want to know if I'm suicidal the answer is no."

Sounds like the opening line of a Cole Porter song

ok this seems pretty significant

if significant findings around this issue were dollar bills i'd have uh about $78 i guess

Was thinking about Trump's tweets this morning, and man, his utter inability to shut the fuck up is yet another indication that anything good that has ever happened to him in his entire life has happened despite him, not because of him. No wonder he thinks he's some sort of negotiation genius. He's like Grizzly Man, hanging with his buddies the bears until one day one eats him.

So not a fan of current streams of drip-drip hints and intimations. So much shit is happening every day that it's a bit like predicting warm weather in summer and darkness at sundown.

I should develop a Trump prediction app. It's just a big red button, and when you press it it says "yes."

another beautiful voice silenced, RIP

who WASN'T Flynn a mole for ???

RIP, you fucking asshole.

there's a madcap comedy to be made about flynn's efforts to keep so many masters happy

i'll say one thing for him, the guy had a work ethic

although king kong and roger ailes may have shared some unfortunate opinions on how to treat women i feel like otherwise you're being pretty harsh on king kong, josh

Yeah, sorry, RIP Kong. He meant well.

one was a giant ape who dominated an inward-looking kill-or-be-killed island full of prehistoric monsters and disgusting savages, the other was king kong etc

While his reckless Tweeting at this point seems to fly in the face of everything most people understand about the concept of self-preservation, I kind of admire Trump's apparent intention to go down like Rhodes at the end of Day of the Dead, defiantly spewing bile to his last breath. CHOKE ON 'EM! CHOKE ON 'EM! He's gonna end up being torn to pieces and devoured either way so why not.

It was Bill O'Reilly killed the beast.

Trump is going to be reanimated as "Dead Alive"'s sentient farting intestine.

I hope Trump goes down like the warden in Shawshank

so trump's guilty. what happens next between us and russia?

Drunken duets

presidents pence and putin begin an intense sexual relationship and the blossoming of their forbidden love brings peace and prosperity to the world

No spoilers, I have to step out for a couple of hours.

oval office bullet lunch is a real picture

if only we could convince more republicans to chow down on a bullet lunch

American country singer Toby Keith, known for songs such as "Whiskey Girl" and "Beer For My Horses," is scheduled to perform in the Saudi capital, Riyadh, this weekend in an event that coincides with President Donald Trump's first overseas visit.

Saudi entertainment website Lammt, which is advertising the event, says Saturday's free concert is open to men only. It will also feature an Arabian lute player.
