No thoughts of your own, huh?

I do.

I’m sick of the people acting like Trump is actually going to get in trouble (not that he even did anything wrong), being all like “oh he’s losing it!”

I’ll leave this message board forever if something big actually happens with him. It just won’t. If anything, Hilary is the one who should be locked up.

Maybe instead of making Facebook posts you might try discussing things a bit. I think you'll find your experience here better if you don't assume what everyone means and feels. Whatever radio station and Facebook pages you frequent have conditioned your brain to react as if everything is gold or dogshit.

Well then tell me what will happen?

Where did you get $48 million? Is that before or after they possessed Manaforts millions?

Trump had an interview with the daily caller in which he claimed to have “hundreds of photos of Muller and Comey hugging and kissing”.

South Africa is well on its way to becoming a third-world country. The other day I saw a GIF on Reddit of a couple coming home to their house, and kidnappers immediately pulling in behind them. The lady had the presence of mind to jump back in the car, and what I assume was her husband slammed on the gas and reversed out of there. Quickly headed the way of Zimbabwe.

South Africa has set a date for when its much-criticized land expropriations can begin after a politician declared: “Your time is up, white people”.

The country’s National Assembly approved a proposal to change the constitution to make the so-called reforms legal in a vote of 183 to 77.

This paves the way for land to be taken from farmers without giving any kind of compensation.

And now lawmakers have agreed to set up a committee that will write and introduce a new bill for land expropriations.

One of the funny things about South Africa is that the ruling majority African tribe arrived in South Africa after the boers came. Basically genociding the indigenous African tribes to that part of the continent.

We see the same here all the time.

There will be a hundred and fifty thousand people on the mall in a couple months holding a pro-life rally and there will be almost no coverage.

10 Proud Boys show up on a corner somewhere and it will lead the Nightly News.

I'm aware, believe me. That said, we both spend way much time on the Twitter.

All nice, neat and tidy. A constitutional amendment makes it so, so what's the complaint? "Representatives" "voted", so it's perfectly right, reasonable and moral.

Tillerson is all cattle, no hat. President Trump is correct here.

Successful businesses sometimes need to trim a LOT of fat in order to succeed. Not sure many people out there really get this. Not that I’m surprised by that.

You're reaching a Guinness level of arrogance now.

Guinness is intellectually sound, even if you don't agree with him.

My comment had nothing to do with intellect but with presentation.

The lack of self-awareness in your posts is something to behold. Congrats.

Well, both are examples of right-wing groups, so it is apples-apples.

We could use two left-wing groups as well.

Antifa gets press, while peaceful vagina hats also get coverage.

Kudos to @AndrewCMcCarthy who has often defended Trump, for publishing this straight take that Trump is likely to be indicted.

Jeff Flake on the the GOPs current response to the investigation closing in on Trump:

“It’s like the party is a frog slowly boiling in water, being conditioned to not be worried, to not think too hard about what’s happening around them,” Flake said. “They feel at a loss about what to do because it’s the president’s party, without any doubt. So, there’s a lot of whistling by the graveyard these days.”

Giuliani dismissed Flake’s criticism in much the same way he and the president have taken on Mueller — with a barbed character attack rather than a measured rebuttal.

“He’s a bitter, bitter man,” Giuliani said of Flake. “It’s sick. Nobody likes him and they would like him gone.”

Jeff Flake is a doofus.

His "bravery" is entirely meaningless as these judges will just be approved by the new Senate and his legislation is understood to be unconstitutional.

My dog would be with me when I was evacuating.

This is the only response I can muster for those stories.

[tifosi77]

It's not reported in the Post story, but the dog's owner was not home when the evac order came in. They were prevented from returning to their house.

They had another dog that was picked up and taken to a shelter out of the line of fire (pardon the phrase) around 100 miles away.
