Members ReddFoxx Posted February 25, 2017 Members Share Posted February 25, 2017 After the issue with the White House wanting the FBI to falsely refute reports about the campaigns links to Russia, it seems likely that there is something solid there that the administration doesn't want found. Plus, there is the fact that certain media outlets have been banned from the White House. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ponds Posted February 25, 2017 Members Share Posted February 25, 2017 The chairmen of both the house and senates committee on foreign intelligence has just admitted to coercing the media to stop reporting the Russian connection. If there is nothing to find, why are they fighting so hard? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted February 25, 2017 Members Share Posted February 25, 2017 I really can't stand Bill Maher atm, but what Darrell Issa says here re: Sessions is a big deal - the dam is breaking for the GOP, much sooner than Nixon. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Faulkner Posted February 25, 2017 Members Share Posted February 25, 2017 Issa's district is a swing district so I'm sure he's feeling the heat. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted February 25, 2017 Members Share Posted February 25, 2017 Democrats worry (rightly I'd say, especially given how much this DNC chair has become a personality contest/proxy war and not about leading the party) that anti-Trump efforts will do nothing to strengthen their operations. http://www.politico.com/story/2017/02/democrats-dnc-chair-angst-235382 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members I Am A Swede Posted February 25, 2017 Members Share Posted February 25, 2017 Of course they would write something like that. They represent a party which has its roots in neonazism! They believe that everything that is wrong with society today is because of immigration. These statements from Trump are like Christmas and birthday presents at the same time for them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DramatistDreamer Posted February 25, 2017 Members Share Posted February 25, 2017 Yeah, a more thorough investigation was somewhat of a foregone conclusion from what I've read over the past month and a half. Just read this article about a hate crime in Kansas and you cannot convince me that having white supremacists in the White House does not embolden people like these.

Members DRW50 Posted February 25, 2017 Members Share Posted February 25, 2017 Yeah I saw the wife of the dead victim said her husband always believed only the best happened in America. We sure proved him wrong, didn't we. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Wales2004 Posted February 25, 2017 Members Share Posted February 25, 2017 And guess who will tweet feigned concern over violence in Chicago and whatever in Sweden, but remain silent on these kinds of crimes... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Roman Posted February 25, 2017 Members Share Posted February 25, 2017 Republicans IMO want Pence in. I wouldn't doubt Pence is slowly placing his own people in certain positions so when te hammer falls on Trump he's off on day one...and that's when the real fight begns, because he is DANGEROUS. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JaneAusten Posted February 25, 2017 Members Share Posted February 25, 2017 (edited) Not trying to make light of this tragedy and no doubt it's awful, but you mentioned yesterday about doubting tourism will be down due to a Muslim ban. I actually agree to an extent but it's not about that. It's about the fact that this country is becoming non welcoming to anyone not Anglo white. My sister in law is here as a permanent resident with a green card from the Philippines and even she is now afraid to go home for a visit in fear of what will happen when she returns. I think there are plenty of people who are non Muslim but " look different" than a so called "real American" that feel the same way.

Members marceline Posted February 25, 2017 Members Share Posted February 25, 2017 (edited) They stopped a NASA scientist born in this country at the border and demanded he unlock his phone just because he had brown skin. This kind of thing always finds ways to include new "others." Case in point, Muhammad Ali Jr. got detained and asked about his religion.
