3. Oh for Christs Sake

6. Kasie Hunt just reported lots of activity by Gang of 8, Comey

something is happening. Gang of 8 went to Langley to view documents instead of having them brought to Congress' safe room, b/c documents are so important to investigation.

Cross your fingers impeachment or resignation soon.

14. be careful

the gun nuts are really nutty. In my state they're going crazy b/c gov proposes to raise the gun registration fees up from $14/yr to $60/yr tops so maybe somewhere in the middle.

The gun nuts are raising holy hell over the fee increase. My mmj registration is $100/yr. and I don't complain.

17. Gun nuts support treason against the USA?

That's mighty scuzzy? I mean, if they are ok with the russians skanking about with republicans to muck up America, are they also ok with republicans selling America out to the Chinese?

What are the criteria nutters are applying here? Are you suggesting that if the illegitimate republican regime gets outed for f*ucking over the USA by colluding with Russia, that gun nuts will have a freaking hissy fit?

18. Wait until Fox news and RT merge.

4. Is McFarlane officially associated with the Trump administration?

I know he visited Trump tower following the election, but does he have an official role?

9. I wonder if someone has confused Robert McFarlane with KT McFarland,

who is in fact a Trump security advisor.

[jmg257]

13. He was at trump tower in Dec...maybe looking for a job?

National Security Advisor to former United States President Ronald Reagan Robert Carl "Bud" McFarlane talks with retired United States Army lieutenant general Michael T. Flynn in the lobby of Trump Tower on December 5, 2016 in New York City. U.S. President-elect Donald Trump is still holding meetings upstairs at Trump Tower as he continues to fill in key positions in his new administration.

7. McFarlane's review wasn't so positive at the time though

Trump’s speech was “lacking in policy prescriptions,” and its “strident rhetoric masked a lack of depth,” said Robert “Bud” McFarlane, a former national security adviser to President Ronald Reagan who attended the speech.

But Kislyak was a bit more ambivalent:

One notable figure sitting in the front row as Trump repeated his call for better relations with Moscow — “I believe an easing of tensions and improved relations with Russia, from a position of strength, is possible. Common sense says this cycle of hostility must end,” Trump said — was Russia’s ambassador to Washington, Sergey Kislyak. (Trump “made some intriguing points, but we need to understand what is meant in the implementation,” Kislyak told POLITICO after the speech. “It needs to be started carefully.”)

Politico

(I was trying to figure out where that apparent sword came from)

16. "It [implementation] needs to be started carefully"---Kislyak

Very important point. Back then, Kislyak is considering how to get Russia's plan implemented and need to start carefully.

The evidence keeps mounting. Get this dfricking fucking president Orangeputin out of the WH!

10. One of the people George HW Bush pardoned

Thanks, Poppy! Your middle-of-the-night lame-duck pardons on Christmas Eve 1992 continue to befoul our nation, you fucking blood-gargling ghoul. I hope you die alone and in agony, as so many of your victims did.
