Trump says that he will "demand that the Department of Justice look into whether or not the FBI/DOJ infiltrated or surveilled the Trump Campaign for Political Purposes"

https://www.cnbc.com/2018/05/20/trump-to-demand-an-investigation-into-fbi-probe-of-2016-campaign.html

If he follows through, this is a Big Fucking Deal. This should be impeachable (though, of course, it won't be). Fuck him.


Been a LONG fucking time coming.

I've asked for this since day 1.

If they were found to do so. Put them in a noose for treason, because it was 100% that.

People too many times are calling outrage over things that have no justification, which lends doubt or questioning of cases in which such outrage is justified.

This is why it is always important to wait til details emerge.

"Once I got a copy of that bodycam, it's as if he made the whole story up. And I felt like he set us back 100 years because think about all of the racial profiling cases [that] are true," Waters said.


Thats why we keep fighting, and yes, its important to call out people like this guy trying to take advantage of real injustice to make bad faith accusations

Sounds like a personal problem if you can only get your news from one side of the spectrum. Are you going to debate the video shown?

Donald's complaining about Democrats moving on to other countries about his funding and support when it's been known for two years he was illegally soliciting funds from other countries.

http://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/288031-trump-campaign-solicits-illegal-foreign-donations-despite-warnings

This article calls out Australia and the United Kingdom during the summer of 2016, and a Washington Post article around then also said Mexico (of all places) was being pitched to too. I'm guessing there were more countries.....

But none of that could have actually paid off, right? Well forgive me for making a jump based off the new Saudi news about Trump Tower, but here's a thing from one year ago today:

5/20/2017
TWITTER - Rebecca Ballhaus (Wall Street Journal reporter)

Trump pilloried Clinton for such donations to the Clinton Foundation on the campaign trail

*IN RESPONSE TO*

Saudi Arabia and UAE pledge $100 million to Ivanka's Women Entrepreneurs Fund, per @carolelee:

https://twitter.com/rebeccaballhaus/status/866145787750871040


It wasn't clear to me if that fund was truly run by Ivanka, but there's still an obvious connection there: they gave money because of a Trump.

It was easy to laugh when Donald was floundering as a candidate and illegally begging other countries to chip in...but this may have been pretty public proof of payments as President.

I really do wonder what it would take to convince some of the Rs at this point.

My guess is MWC is closer to the mean than people want to admit - he knows Trump is a piece of shit, but Democratic policies would be BAD because <insert favorite Republican doomsday scenario>. Therefore Trump is a more acceptable evil.

When someone asks you a question and you do not answer it, that is your decision. I asked "If you had kids". It is yes or no. The answer is no, apparently.

Yes, the kids I am referring to that are mostly going to be delinquent at the ages I am talking about are the kind of kids that are NOT going to just hand their phone over because their parent told them to or give a fuck if their parents stop paying the bill. They just do not give a fuck. The students you are talking about, that follow the rules, are not the ones that for the most part are going to fall into the category I am talking about.

Sure, taking the phones of a 12 year old girl who always follows the rules mostly is going to matter a lot them, especially the social ones who go to school primarily to see their friends and socialize.

It is not going to work to the rebel against authority, I do not give a fuck type. It is questionable whether even the penalties I am suggesting would even work either, but it does take the responsibility to the party at fault.

TLDR: Any party that would be affected by taking their phone, would be similarly impacted by personal accruement of penalties or driving privilege suspensions against them. Any party that wouldn't be affected by taking their phone, would questionably be affected by personal acrruement of consequences, but it would alleviate the parent from said consequences that they can be rendered helpless to control and shift them to the responsible party.

The point is, which who didn't know when I was asked a question it was just going to be the same group as always trying to pick a part out to argue against until blue in the face, that at a certain age, we need to shift that responsibility.

Say a kid keeps skipping. Parent says go to school. They say fuck off. Parent says I will take your phone. Kid says I don't give a fuck. You take phone (assuming you can even get it -turn off it's service otherwise). Take electronics. Etc. Kid still won't go to school. At this point you are rendered helpless. You cannot physically force your child to go to school. Maybe in the old days you could grab your kid by the hair. Toss him in the car. Toss him out at the school. And he is there and embarrassed in front of the school. However, that definitely is not going to fly in this day and age.

Thus, there is a situation in which you are rendered helpless and why should said parent be held responsible for that?

Luckily, the ages I am talking about where the responsibility would be transferred over to the student is also the ages where I think a student can legally drop out of school (I think).
