Members Juliajms Posted March 29, 2018 Members Share Posted March 29, 2018 This seems so naive to me. This guy seems really on top of the Russia probe, but I don't know how anyone is sure that justice or democracy will prevail. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JaneAusten Posted March 29, 2018 Members Share Posted March 29, 2018 (edited) I never believed he wouldn’t pardon anyone but I do think with several such as Kuschner and Trump Jr. who would be the most,likely to be pardoned, will be up being prosecuted in New York if it happens, where Trump has no pardoning authority. There has been rumors that Mueller is in fact working with AG Schneiderman in NY. On another topic So crooked Scott Walker in Wisconsin backed into a corner decided he actually needs to hold special elections in Wisconsin, after attempts to delay knowing seats may goto Democrats. There was talk that the Wisconsin legislature was going to change the law in lieu of the courts order here, but apparently they dropped that as well. A minor victory but every battle matters. http://www.wbay.com/content/news/The-Latest-Wisconsin-DOJ-appeals-special-elections-order-478177563.html Edited March 29, 2018 by JaneAusten 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members marceline Posted March 29, 2018 Members Share Posted March 29, 2018 I see a lot of this on Twitter and I think it's just an attempt to keep people's hopes up and try to push back against despair. It doesn't help but it doesn't hurt either. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted March 30, 2018 Members Share Posted March 30, 2018 Scott Pruitt may be the Trump Cabinet member I dislike most (which is saying a lot). And this is a very odd story about him: http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/exclusive-pruitts-epa-security-broke-door-lobbyist-condo/story?id=54129080 Another story, not about Pruitt, but federal workers talk about the atmosphere. https://www.politico.com/story/2018/03/30/trump-washington-civil-servants-492347 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Khan Posted March 31, 2018 Members Share Posted March 31, 2018 We don't care for him much either, here in Oklahoma. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted March 31, 2018 Members Share Posted March 31, 2018 I keep reading he's mostly EPA so he can get connections to become governor of Oklahoma. I'll say sorry in advance if this is what OK ends up being stuck with. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted March 31, 2018 Members Share Posted March 31, 2018 (edited) Honestly...? Although I'm sure to eat my words sooner rather than later, even Scott [!@#$%^&*] Pruitt couldn't be any worse than what we've got right now. Things are so bad under our current, lame-duck governor that a teacher and state employee walkout over education funding, or the lack thereof, is set to happen on Monday (4/1), cutting the current school year short by over a month, with NO way of knowing when the state legislature and the educators' union will arrive at some consensus. (And given the fact that every year for the past several has seen this state in a HUGE economic crisis, with the legislators unable to come up with anything beyond a mere Band-Aid to remedy our situation...well, let's just say, something tells me that the new school year is going to begin with our teachers STILL on strike.) In fact, now that I think about it, I'm hard-pressed to think of even ONE governor in our state's history who wasn't incompetent on some level. But, it never really matters, because no matter WHO is in charge here, or on which side of the political aisle they stand on, the fact of the matter is that they're still presiding over the state of Oklahoma, which has been hanging on by a proverbial thread for DECADES.

Members DRW50 Posted March 31, 2018 Members Share Posted March 31, 2018 Trump is freezing money that would have gone to help Syria. I guess he really will be pulling troops out soon. http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/trump-freezes-200-million-aid-promised-syria/story?id=54140183 I saw a comment somewhere saying he had a phone call with Putin a week or two ago... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
