Trump's America, March 2017: Using His Inside VOICE

It should be noted that Spicer is apparently next level even for him today.

hope no one asks poor spicey about APT28 and APT29 :(

part 2 ^

this shit is nuts!

don't trust the B in APT28 or APT29

Oh!! God this was killing me all day. Comey's voice sounds exactly like Bob Odenkirk.

Couldn't place it.

It should be noted that Spicer is apparently next level even for him today.

uh yeah that whole "Manafort had a very limited role in this campaign" thing is completely nuts

lol at his "Why aren't you guys looking into Hillary's collusion with the Russians?"

reporter literally yelled out "BECAUSE YOU WON"

yea i've watched a number of these dumb press briefings but that was definitely one of the testier ones

admin still trying to win over hearts&minds by reminding us all that hillary

without anyone to compare themselves to or denounce they are nothing.

I cannot recall any elected official who was ever so obsessed with their opponent post-defeat. It must be love.

but it's over now

lmao

they have no interest in governing.. trump loves to fight/campaign and he's probably mad that he actually won. its why he still does the rallies.

Waiting for either side of a standard press conference to address the other as "hey dumbass" repeatedly

This hearing, counter or at least parallel-productive GOP stuff aside, is like watching a surreal sequel to the Trump roast.

I cannot recall any elected official who was ever so obsessed with their opponent post-defeat. batshit insane. It must be love. challops.

Not buying that. More like less interest in the process. Supreme Court nominee hearing is going on now too. He wants credit for that if the guys gets selected and for other stuff he is signing.

guy- Gorsuch

He needs it. Has he accomplished anything in his two months in office beyond sowing fear?

(And, tbf, steadily chipping away at his support?)

The role of Rick Santorum currently being played by Zosia Mamet on CNN right now

gained a few million twitter followers iirc

@elivalley
Alan Dershowitz pals around with the hero of American Nazism at Mar-a-Lago

He asked a number of visitors over the weekend what they thought of Neil Gorsuch, his Supreme Court nominee. He asked others about North Korea.

And he complained about leaks coming from inside the federal government, saying they were the bigger story than his recent claims about being wiretapped by former President Barack Obama at Trump Tower and “even going into the statutory authority of how to deal with them,” according to Alan Dershowitz, who was at Mar-a-Lago and spoke to the president at length there.

Trump told Dershowitz he’d seen him on TV saying that the reframed travel ban had a chance in the courts, and called him a “man of integrity,” with the two hashing out strategy to move the ban forward. (The Department of Justice is appealing the most recent injunctions.)

“He had some ideas on the Middle East he wanted to test out with me,” Dershowitz said, adding the president jokingly called him a “liberal Democrat” several times during their conversation.

did anyone take in the full hearing today? i'm waiting for marcy wheeler's writeups. sad to say my eyes glaze over with this intel stuff

wtf is up with the times lately? the public editor got suckered by another patented right-wing smear campaign and chided one of their reporters for a twitter joke about bow wow. and they just ran an op-ed by complete moron -- to call her "unhinged" would be to suggest she was at any time attached to any recognizable frame -- louise mensch. because she's set herself up as the a-1 russia paranoid. it's fucked up.

(i've been skipping this thread, no doubt you've talked about this shit)

Hi, goole!

I don't read the Times anymore tbh

the public editor is actually a block of wood. the times has previous w louise mensch and never reveals her background afacit (i.e. tory mp and professional weirdo)

add murdoch fluffer

I read the Times and Post but not op eds and columnists.

I saw a hunk of of the hearing. Or rather, I saw enough of it to know that many of the same points were made again and again. I think the big takeaway:

1) Yes, there is an ongoing FBI investigation into Russian interference and people in Trump's circle.

2) After a whole day of this, the only way any of this Russian stuff could be dismissed by Trump Inc. is in the most literal way possible, i.e. "yes, they are investigating, but there is no proof yet." Even the GOP goobers grousing about leaks acknowledged all this other Russian stuff is also important.

3) If the point was to get all of this on the public record, mission accomplished, because hearing all the same stuff we've been talking about for months laid out in a public and official forum was I think an important step. That and concessions from both sides that this will go on for months, so no worry it will get swept aside.

So Ivanka's getting a West Wing office and wants a security clearance.

but NOT a government employee.. kushner must not be getting the babysitting job done properly.

Eh, isn't this the same arrangement Hillary had?

And she wasn't even a feminist fighter for women's rights, like Ivanka is.

bill and donny might both be creeps with no impulse control but at least bill could do his fuckin job amirite

Who wants another "you stupid voter, you deserve everything coming!" rant?

I can see why theres a therapeutic use of just screaming a lot, but some of these get real close to the idea of "only good things should come to Good People" which is some rightwing shit.

hi alfred!

oh and fuck frank rich.

mensch has said that the russians killed breitbart. bipartisan credibility!

I liked the Frank Rich piece. Nothing he said wasn't true
