    I don't think Paul Ryan is old enough to have served ten terms. He still has zits?

    More than $40,000 donated to GoFundMe for Alabama man charged with felony for stabbing ‘Baby Trump’ balloon
    Posted 1:39 pm, November 11, 2019, by Web Staff, Updated at 01:41PM, November 11, 2019

    More than $40,000 donated to GoFundMe for Alabama man charged with felony for stabbing ‘Baby Trump’ balloon

    excerpts:

    "“I don’t know how many of ya’ll Republicans out there got any balls about yourself, but they got that Baby Trump balloon down here on campus right now and I’m going down here to make a scene, so ya’ll watch the news,” he said in the video. “… I’m fixing to get rowdy, so ya’ll pay attention. I’m shaking, I’m so mad right now, but I’m fixing to go. I’m fixing to pop this balloon without a doubt.”"


    "The page aimed to raise $6,000, but by 1:30 p.m. Monday, it had raised more than $40,000. That is, until the GoFundMe reportedly said those donations could not be used to help the defendant.

    “We have been reported by the sympathizers,” the creator wrote. “Apparently we didn’t read the fine print. Gofundme is not going to allow these generous donations to help Hoyt. They will soon likely refund all your support. Apologize for the inconvenience folks.”"

    Another court has ruled against Trump. That fat orange buffoon filed a case in Washington DC to stop New York from acquiring his tax records. The judge threw the case out. I remember Republicans saying, "What are you afraid of? What are you trying to hide?" During the times when my friends and I were protesting police searches of cars, protesting police telephone surveillance, and other trespass of our civil rights. The Republicans always claimed they were for law and order and called for drug testing in employment. They wanted to keep pot smoking Hippies from good paying jobs in the computer industry among others. The Republicans always argued, "What do you have to hide?"

    Well people, the Republicans always supported police searches where Probable Cause and Reasonable Suspicion exist. Now we know they supported it when the police were searching others. Now we have a new situation. And the authorities want to look into Donald J Trump. They want to examine his tax records just like they examined Al

    Capone's books for tax evasion. So … what does he have to hide?

    The same goes for the Deutsche Bank … What does he have to hide?

    The same goes for subpoenas to his employees from Congress … What does he have to hide?

    If everything is on the Up & Up with that secret bank which is owned by another government … what does he have to hide?

    Why doesn't Trump want the American people to know?

    After push from Perry, backers got huge gas deal in Ukraine

    After push from Perry, backers got huge gas deal in Ukraine

    excerpt:

    "KYIV, Ukraine (AP) -- Two political supporters of U.S. Energy Secretary Rick Perry secured a potentially lucrative oil and gas exploration deal from the Ukrainian government soon after Perry proposed one of the men as an adviser to the country's new president.

    Perry's efforts to influence Ukraine's energy policy came earlier this year, just as President Volodymyr Zelenskiy's new government was seeking military aid from the United States to defend against Russian aggression, and allies of President Donald Trump were ramping up efforts to get the Ukrainians to investigate his Democratic rival Joe Biden.

    Ukraine awarded the contract to Perry's supporters little more than a month after the U.S. energy secretary attended Zelenskiy's May inauguration. During that trip, Perry handed the new president a list of people he recommended as energy advisers, including his longtime political backer Michael Bleyzer.

    A week later, Bleyzer and his partner Alex Cranberg submitted a bid to drill for oil and gas at a sprawling government-controlled site called Varvynska. Their proposal was millions of dollars lower than their only competitor, according to internal Ukrainian government documents obtained by The Associated Press."

    Fingerprints from right-wing media figures are all over the Trump impeachment depositions
    By Brian Stelter, Oliver Darcy and Marina di Marzo, CNN Business

    Fingerprints from right-wing media figures are all over the Trump impeachment depositions - CNN

    excerpt:

    "New York (CNN Business)The seeds of the Ukraine scandal were planted in the fertile soil of right-wing media many months before most people ever heard about an alleged "quid pro quo."

    In fact, many of President Trump's shadow foreign policy maneuverings happened in plain sight, on the pages of The Hill website and in the prime time hours of Fox News.

    Names like Sean Hannity and Tucker Carlson, both of Fox, and John Solomon, a Fox contributor formerly of The Hill, pepper the 2,677 pages of deposition transcripts that have come out of the Democrats' impeachment inquiry.

    Hannity, in particular, appears to have a nexus to much of the shenanigans. Hannity and Fox were mentioned at least dozen times during the testimony of Marie Yovanovitch, the former US Ambassador to Ukraine.

    In her recent testimony, Yovanovitch described how Hannity publicly advocated for her removal and said she could tell, even from half a world away in Ukraine, that the Fox host "appeared to be close to the president.""

    Trump has invited fringe elements to the White House before. One event was a 'star-studded' truther gala that included, among others, Carpe Donktum, Ali Alexander, James O'Keefe, Charlie Kirk, and Benny Johnson.



    Trump invites right-wing extremists to White House 'social media summit'

    Donald Trump invites right-wing extremists to White House 'social media summit' - CNN

    excerpt:

    "Among them are Bill Mitchell, a radio host who has promoted the extremist QAnon conspiracy theory on Twitter; Carpe Donktum, an anonymous troll who won a contest put on by the fringe media organization InfoWars for an anti-media meme; and Ali Alexander, an activist who attempted to smear Sen. Kamala Harris by saying she is not an "American black" following the first Democratic presidential debates.

    Other eyebrow raising attendees include James O'Keefe, the guerrilla journalist whose group Project Veritas tried to trick reporters at the Washington Post by planting a source who told the paper that she had been impregnated as a teenager by failed Republican Senate candidate Roy Moore; Charlie Kirk, the founder of the right-wing student group Turning Point USA who sometimes posts misleading information on social media; and Benny Johnson, the journalist-turned-activist who was fired for plagiarism by BuzzFeed and demoted at the Independent Journal Review for violating company standards."

    I agree, because I listen to an AM station here in Indiana which Carries Hannity. They have two others who push Trump and bash Liberals: Buck Sexton who is a blatant liar, and Todd Starns who claims to be an evangelical and sounds like a Klansman.

    In contrast to Trump's blatant invitation of such elements to the White House, Obama critics were upset that a 60's activist once lived in the same Chicago neighborhood as Obama years before he ran for office.

    Representative Pete King of New York just declared that he would not run again. Republicans are dropping like flies off a barnyard … And Trump must be feeling lonely …

    Lindsey Graham to Trump’s Rescue
    The senator says impeachment is ‘dead on arrival’ unless the whistleblower testifies.
    By William McGurn
    Nov. 11, 2019 6:47 pm ET

    Opinion | Lindsey Graham to Trump’s Rescue

    excerpt:

    "Which brings us back to a Graham-Trump alliance that neither man could have imagined back in 2016. Primary candidates often say things about their rivals that they later regret, but the Trump-Graham exchanges stand out for their rancor. Mr. Trump called Mr. Graham a “stiff,” an “idiot” and a “lightweight,” read out the senator’s cellphone number during a rally, and declared that “he actually probably seems to me not as bright as Rick Perry.”

    Mr. Graham gave as good as he got. He called Mr. Trump “the world’s biggest jackass” and a “race-baiting xenophobic religious bigot” and said that if Republicans nominated him, the party would lose the “moral authority” to govern."

    Who can you trust with the nation's security if not Fox News? I say give the professional wrestling league a chance.

    Good luck with that I wouldn't vote for that POS if he was the last Nazi on earth, and neither would any of my black friends or relatives.

    Conservatives never admit defeat, they just hang their heads like the dogs they are, and you can always tell when their wind has been knocked out of their sails, because they tend to make less noise. Even dogs stop barking when they get caught but, of course, they are just dogs and evolution is a lie.

    That's like saying they win the pissing contest. There is no America left to speak of, get over it already! It is now your patriotic duty to vote for whichever clown advertises the most or vote the bums out office. You don't need a rocket scientist to know what's missing from this picture is any resemblance to a two party system that actually represents the people. A twenty year Princeton study concluded that, no matter who was voted into office, only the wealthy got anything they wanted.

    Americans can be dumber than a bag of rocks. Film at 11:00 on Fox!
