Well, the part of the truth is also out now after Vindmann's testimony. It is on record now that Trump fudged the record of the call and placed it in a top security computer to keep Congress from knowing anything. I suspect the same was done with parts of Mueller's reports and other discovery. Trump and Barr just asked an appeals court to overturn the lower court ruling concerning Mueller's Grand Jury documentation. Last night Rachel Maddow exposed some outrageous criminal activity by Lev Parnas going back to 1995. He was involved in a boiler room stock rip off operation that stole millions from unsuspecting Americans. They beat and threatened people who wanted their money back. One man was killed and put under a concrete parking lot. Now this dude is claiming he works for Trump and Giuliani and deserves executive privilege. And the part of law and order is still backing Trump and attacking Vindmann?
Don't forget what Donald Trump said *repeatedly* about the Ukraine call transcript Chris Cillizza Analysis by Chris Cillizza, CNN Editor-at-large Updated 11:36 AM ET, Wed October 30, 2019 Don't forget what Donald Trump said *repeatedly* about the Ukraine call transcript - CNNPolitics excerpt: What's very clear here is that Trump is hanging a lot -- a whole lot -- on the idea that the transcript released by his White House was a verbatim recording of the conversation he had with Zelensky. Which, well, never made any sense because stamped right at the bottom of the transcript -- which the White House released! -- was this warning: "A Memorandum of a Telephone Conversation.· (TELCON) is not a verbatim transcript of a discussion. The text in this document records the notes and recollections of Situation Room Duty Officers and-NSC policy staff assigned to listen and memorialize the conversation in written form as the conversation takes place. A number of factors can affect the accuracy of the record, including poor telecommunications connections and variations in accent and/or interpretation. The word "inaudible" is used to indicate portions of a conversation that the notetaker was unable to hear." It's right there in the transcript! That this is not a transcript. So you have to ask yourself this basic question: Why, given that it was made very clear that this was never a verbatim log of the Trump-Zelensky conversation, did the President invest so much rhetorical firepower in trying to present it that way?
So Trump is a stable genius ten steps of everyone, except when he commits a crime. Then he can't be culpable because he is too stupid to know how to commit a crime. As the Church Lady would say, "How convenient!"
A used car salesman will say anything to get you to buy the car. Sometimes it is , "a little old lady drove it." At other times, "she's a cream puff." Then the warranty is 50/50 … fifty feet or fifty seconds whichever comes first!
A forensic pathologist who has looked into the Jefferey Epstein death has said publicly that he thinks is was, "death by homicidal strangulation." If true that means he was moved from a city jail to the federal jail to be killed. All the cameras were turn off on purpose. Maybe Epstein's lawyers could explain why they went along with moving him from one jail to another? Maybe William Barr has done something else to protect Trump? Barr did go to Epstein's island resort to confiscate all materials. So what happened to all that?
It gets swept under the rug and quickly forgotten, because the money is doing all the driving. If you're looking for justice, the Ringling Bros clown court still sits in judgment of their own.
The republicans definition of right and wrong is different than dictionary says. An innocent person does everything they can do to prove innocence. Trump's idea of proving himself innocent is to incriminate himself.
Money is a curse, which the sciences are now rapidly proving. A study of Wall Street traders concluded, no matter what their espoused beliefs, their ethics went up and down with the stock market. You can see the same effect on someone like a wino in the gutter where, after awhile, there's nobody home anymore. Just a bundle of bad habits and worse attitudes. Their idea of friends is anyone who gives them a bottle and drinks with them, even if they beat them up and steal from them once in a while. Such people tend to live shorter lives and reproduce less often and, you could say, they are sacrificing their futures as families and societies for temporary gain. Soon enough, the computers will take much of the gambling out of Wall Street, compelling people to invest more in each other, and the same computers will show them the advantages of paying it forward, and make them pay even more for being selfish. Instant karma, or metaethics, can be said to rule even the laws of physics, and eliminate extremes such as the world economies today. Over a trillion dollars was invested in AI last year alone, because the money is about to take on a new life of its own.
People are stupid enough and insane enough without money, while republicans are proof that money causes brain damage. Just ask the Pentagon and the NFL, who hid the evidence for decades, because the lawsuits would have been crippling. The damning evidence is overwhelming, but nobody is coming straight out and saying Fundamentalists in particular are their own worst enemy. Sometimes, it really helps to have a theory of everything or, at least, some real knowledge of networking systems logics, which are anathema in western culture.
Trump's Russia Director To Leave National Security Council Amid Impeachment Inquiry Heard on All Things Considered Franco Ordoñez October 30, 2019 5:05 PM ET Trump's Russia Director To Leave National Security Council Amid Impeachment Inquiry excerpt: "Tim Morrison, the top Russia official on President Trump's National Security Council, who is scheduled to testify in the impeachment inquiry on Thursday, is expected to leave his White House post imminently, three sources familiar with the plan told NPR. Morrison, a conservative hawk who has served as the senior director for European and Russian affairs on the National Security Council, will be replaced by Andrew Peek, the deputy assistant secretary of state for Iraq and Iran in the Bureau of Near Eastern Affairs, according to the sources."
Trump's Russia Director To Leave National Security Council Amid Impeachment Inquiry excerpt: "It was Morrison who described having a "sinking feeling" and alerted NSC lawyers after a Sept. 7 call between Sondland and Trump about the alleged pressure, according to Taylor's testimony. "According to Mr. Morrison, President Trump told Ambassador Sondland that he was not asking for a 'quid pro quo,' " Taylor wrote in his opening statement. "But President Trump did insist that President Zelenskiy go to a microphone and say he is opening investigations of Biden and 2016 election interference, and that President Zelenskiy should want to do this himself. Mr. Morrison said that he told Ambassador Bolton and the NSC lawyers of this phone call between President Trump and Ambassador Sondland.""
Highlights: Top U.S. Diplomat In Ukraine Delivers Explosive Statement To Congress Franco Ordoñez October 22, 2019 7:47 PM ET Highlights: Top U.S. Diplomat In Ukraine Delivers Explosive Statement To Congress excerpt: "Sondland told Taylor in a Sept. 1 phone call that Trump wanted Zelenskiy to state publicly that Ukraine would investigate Burisma — the energy company where the son of former Vice President Joe Biden sat on the board — and investigate alleged (and debunked) Ukrainian interference in the 2016 election. Sondland also told Taylor that "he had made a mistake" by telling the Ukrainian officials that a White House meeting with Zelenskiy depended on that public statement. "In fact, Ambassador Sondland said, 'everything' was dependent on such an announcement, including security assistance," Taylor wrote."
Nobody cares about the president putting the screws to some third world corruptocracy and nobody cares that an unelected Ukrainian-American army officer , decorated as he is, (thank you for your service) was ‘disturbed’ by what his Commander-in Chief said in a phone call. Once again, they got nuthin’.
They have the law and the majority of the US population behind them, which both insist roast Duck is the only solution. Donald Duck's fans can go their graves insisting he is innocent, but nobody believes a fucking word they say anyway, just like nobody believes a word Donald Duck says either. The harder they defend him, the faster the republican party splits in half, which is OK by me. So long as Libertarians insist spouting bullshit and nonstop crap is politics, they will get it thrown back in their fucking faces good and hard. Nothing unites Americans, like a good ass whooping!
The governor of Alaska who is in jeopardy of being run out of office is appealing to Trump for advice on how to not get run out ot office. Trump defends Alaska governor amid recall push to oust him BECKY BOHRER, Associated Press October 30, 2019 Trump defends Alaska governor amid recall push to oust him excerpt: "The recall group, among its claims, says Dunleavy violated the law by not appointing a judge within a required timeframe, misused state funds for partisan purposes and improperly used his veto authority to "attack the judiciary." Dunleavy vetoed from the court system budget an amount the administration said was commensurate to state funding for abortions after Alaska's Supreme Court this year struck down as unconstitutional a state law and regulation seeking to define what constitutes medically necessary abortions for Medicaid funding. Attorney General Kevin Clarkson has said the veto was within Dunleavy's authority."
How sad, they obviously never learned how to share their words and play nice. Someone should send them a "Get Well Soon" card.
