Jeff Flake not seeking re-election in Arizona. That is the second GOPer after Corker in the senate combined with 8 GOP house members not running. I do wonder if Dean Heller from Nevada might be next?

Hillary Clinton's campaign and the Democratic National Committee helped bankroll research that led to the 'golden showers' dossier on Donald Trump.

Clinton's campaign lawyer Marc Elias hired research firm Fusion GPS back in April 2016 to look into allegations of Trump's ties to Russia, according to the Washington Post.

Fusion GPS, the Washington-based research firm, then hired former British intelligence officer Christopher Steele to dig up the unconfirmed dirt on Trump.

Clinton's lawyer and his law firm Perkins Coie continued to fund the research until October 2016 - just days before the presidential election.

The research was previously funded by an unknown anti-Trump Republican donor during the primary, but Clinton's campaign then paid for it to be finished.

Sources would not confirm how much was paid to Fusion GPS, but said the campaign and DNC shared the cost.

Newt Gingrich would love to see Trump punch Maxine Waters

 

Just filth. Is there no low for these people? They already helped put a sexual assailant in the CIC seat. Now that want that same man to get physical with a woman? Let me shut up before I say something that'll have the Secret Service knocking on my door...

So in new released FBI docs, apparently a resident warned Police that Adam Lanza threatened to kill his mother and students before  the Sandyhooke massacre. The local police claimed they could not do anything and told her to contact the state police. Seriously they couldn't organize it? Doesn't sound like the local police took it seriously

And have learned nothing IMO. The party cannot govern and their decisions wildly unpopular with the American Public and is based on overturning anything that helps the average American. He’ll likely vote for the tax cuts for the 1% which is a tax bill only supported by 25% of the American Public per Reuters and just last night in the darkness and under wraps, voted to take away the rights of consumers to sue banks in mass. Every protection consumers have from predatory practices of big business are being taken away.

So this village administrator who hates Rohingya admits to not knowing a single Muslim person yet thanks Facebook for giving him the "true information in Myanmar".

 

Now that Mark Zuckerberg no longer claims to be an atheist, does he observe Yom Kippur? Because it seems that he has much to atone for these days.

Remember the Black woman who came for Jeffrey Dahmer in the courtroom?  If not for the bailiff and others restraining her, she would have given that sick mofo the beat-down of his wretched life.

 

My point being: if it ever did come to blows between Trump and Mother Waters, I've a feeling that Mother Waters could more than hold her own.

Authorities are told that a Caucasian male resident has threatened to kill and all they can do is shrug.  However, let these same authorities get wind of some "suspicious-looking" African-American teenagers hanging out in front of a convenience store, and before you can say "probable cause," they're there, at the scene, armed to the teeth with weapons and protective gear, with helicopters flying above, and SWAT team members, agents from the ATF, CIA, FBI, and NSA, and even troops from the local National Guard, all standing by.  THAT is the America we live in.

 

Yep.  He and Bob Corker want to pretend that this is not the Republican Party they know.  However, the truth is that this IS the Republican Party they know.  They just did a better job of hiding the fact.
