Comey could have known that last year...yet look how he acted.

 

I can't remember if this was already posted but it's a good read.

It appears multiple unnamed sources inside WH & FBI are now leaking accounts that contradict the official WH story of Comey firing.

Politico talks to people who know (and mostly don't like) Trump about what he's done: "To think there's any logic beyond self-preservation is wrong."

My BF seems to think Trump will get impeached.

 

I don't have that much faith in the system.

 

If he does though. Then we are looking at President Pence. Which, will be just as bad.

No it wouldn't.

 

Meanwhile, an important update:

Ol' Joe Scarborough is raging this morning. Calling the entire WH pathetic, lying sycophants and saying "my party is collapsing".

IA...not only as bad but worse. 

The best bet is to have a counterbalance to whatever Republican is in the WH for the rest of the term, be it Trump or Pence by changing the dynamic of Congress.

Can't believe I'm agreeing with someone who used to write speeches for McCain but I believe that the only hope for stability is a Democrat dominated Congress. 

 

Speaking of shock agreements, did that troll Joe Walsh actually call out Trump's abrupt firing of Comey as an abuse of power?  Wow. Does he actually believe this or is he trying to preserve his brand as he sees Trump's "brand" headed for the dumpster?

I will keep repeating this until I'm tired. Voter suppression matters, folks!

This is one reason that the entire WWC narrative infuriates me. There is Michigan and Wisconsin where over 200k voters who voted in prior years were blocked from voting due to new voter ID laws. 80% of those voters were African American. Hundreds of early voting sites eliminated in states like North Carolina and Texas in primarily African American and Hispanic areas. This is THE most underreported story of the 2016 election. Ari Berman is the only one who consistently reported on it and was largely ignored.

 

Here it comes more attempts at Voter Suppression now national as Trump is creating a commission headed by guess who Kris Kobach. The democrats deserve this [!@#$%^&*] for focusing on that bullshit WWC narrative. But you know who doesn't - THE VOTERS who are targeted. I am beyond angry over this.

Trump creating voter fraud commission today with Kris Kobach as vice chair. Will lead to massive voter suppression https://t.co/RneLso5ANS

So he's off the "Trump is really a democrat" train?

Since we're talking about voter suppression, please note that the Census Bureau director resigned because they are trying to underfund the census. The next census will be used for redrawing districts.
