How Likely is it Trump has Threatened Nancy Pelosi or Her Family?

While the world is giving Republicans a pass for cursing us with Trump, and given Trump's history of ugly threats against anyone who crosses him and, further, given the truly terrible ways the Russians act out against their enemies, I'm guessing there may be more to Pelosi's decision to not open an impeachment inquiry at this particular time. There is always much that happens in Washington behind closed doors. I have every confidence that Nancy Pelosi is doing everything she can given the full circumstances.

It's Time to Retire the Word "Collusion" When Describing Trump's Machinations

It soft-pedals his actual crimes. It would be more accurate to describe his maneuvers as conspiracy.

Yesterday, When Trump Announced, "That's How Business Done," He Clued in America & the World

He is not in the White House to act as president or govern. He’s only there to do business, to enrich himself and his family, and is completely fine with breaking the law to do it. Trump is a loud and proud criminal and has dared us to do anything about it.

He’s daring us to do anything about it.

I Wonder What Would Happen if the Collective Mainstream Media Took an Entire Day...

...away from Trump and his myriad distractions. He truly is a do-nothing President. Other than outrageous tweets and comments, he has nothing of substance to offer. I propose regular media moratoriums from his nothingness. There is an abundance of actual serious news to report on every day. The endless, obnoxious and meaningless infotainment is incredibly boring.

"The Trump Criminal Investigations"

On tonight’s show, Donnie Deutsche made an excellent branding suggestion, “The Trump Criminal Investigations.” Barney Frank, a guest, also made an excellent branding suggestion, “Unindicted Donald.”

These are two excellent branding suggestions we can all use going forward whenever referring to Trump or the multiple investigations into his misconduct and criminal activity. Over time, they will become part of the collective unconscious and they certainly can’t hurt.

The Manistream Media is Giving Republicans a Pass on Trump:

His ignorance, his incompetence, his crimes and on impeachment. For all of Trump’s many shortcomings, Republicans are let off the hook. Apparently, only Democrats took an oath to uphold the Constitution and the rule of law.

Mueller's Statement that He Did NOT Conclude Trump Didn't Commit a Crime Should be Replayed

Endlessly in the media. The obstruction no doubt prevented a conclusion of conspiracy.

The New Abortion Laws Would Grant Government the Authority to Enforce Abortions

Prohibit or enforce abortions—it’s the same authority. I wonder if the lawmakers, in their rush to pass these draconian laws, have bothered to consider that fact.
