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

this is starting to feel like a salvo of info. intelligence comm goin' ham

Where is that Digby stuff coming from?

i think some of that appears in the nytimes headline from earlier tonight but not sure

2 of the items do, the last one is the one I can't find

same here. points 1 and 2 also appear here: https://www.bloomberg.com/politics/articles/2017-03-02/sessions-spoke-with-russian-envoy-during-trump-s-2016-campaign

Ted Lieu also - obv all Dems but he's on Judiciary Committee

George W. Bush's ethics lawyer calls Sessions's talks with Russia: "Good way to go to jail" http://hill.cm/4Pyf7nx

Aw, come on, it's only the AG lying under oath about contact with Russia, nothing to see here. Besides, Sessions seems like a pretty chill guy.

not just anyone in russia, the fucking spymaster!

LOL at the defense: I didn't speak to Russia, but if I did it wasn't about important stuff, but I forget what it was about anyway.

jeff sessions looks like evil bilbo baggins

I hope they all have heart attacks

Alberto Gonzalez 2.0

i hope i don't have a heart attack

this feels like the start of something big

seriously I'm afraid to go to sleep and wake up to CNN reports saying "ALL IS FINE - PLEASE GO ABOUT YOUR BUSINESS"

it's that third digby piece driving me nuts that I can't find a source for - that's the first real thing serving as tangible proof of the contacts (not proof of collusion outright but it's a start)

i'm enjoying this late night revelation because there are fewer ilxors on hand to let me know how everything is actually not a big deal. during the sober moments of daytime, yes, perhaps, yes. but in the 11:00 hour i say that this is surreal and weird and unforgettable and feels like something big.

And minus the naysayers, I say you are absolutely correct!

Get to know your likely number 2. Seems like a step up.

Rod Rosenstein, the U.S. Attorney for Maryland who is on track to become the deputy attorney general in Donald Trump’s Department of Justice, announced a stunning indictment Wednesday against seven Baltimore police officers. In a press conference, Rosenstein said the police officers were “involved in a pernicious conspiracy scheme” to steal large sums of money out of people’s homes and cars and to receive thousands of dollars in bogus overtime pay.

The racketeering indictment comes less than one week before Rosenstein’s Senate confirmation hearing to become second in command to Jeff Sessions—a cheerleader for law enforcement who has signaled a reluctance to bring troubled police departments under federal oversight because doing so is “almost disrespectful.”

xpost i tweeted at her to ask for the source but she didn't respond. she may have blocked me a few years ago when i criticized her for something else that she did that i thought represented poor journalism. she responded with unkind words.

lol i saw your tweet!

out of context etc

it's hard to read all this and not feel at least a little hope. sessions getting forced out would be a major victory, every day he has power things are getting worse for someone

hey man i am out there on the internet

it is the 11 o'clock hour and anything goes

So this is almost certainly an intentional 'okay, release the hounds' moment on the part of someone(s), right? No way does this much insane shit drop at once without a guiding hand.

I want to go to bed, but ... I don't want to go to bed.

Project Make Jeff Sessions Stay Up Late, Too

this is Marco Rubio getting revenge for Little Marquito

based off of the dutch/british surveillance of russian/trump campaign meetings in europe, i would guess there is about to be much, much more

**furiously adds Kislyak to Death Pool 2017**

it wouldn't surprise me if whomever is flinging all this stuff at the press takes a little break to let Sessions keep saying stuff, then release more stuff that contradicts that stuff, rinse repeat

i feel like a 3 am trump tweet would be a nice addition as well. i really like he speaks his mind. he says what i'm thinking

White House already made a statement calling this a 'partisan' attack and taking potshots at Franken.

Trumpie himself will probably not be far behind

A thing of beauty that just occurred to me: the same GOP spinelessness that has the GOP currently in loyal lockstep with Turnip for the sake of political expediency is the same spinelessness which, if things reach a tipping point where the shit has undeniably hit the fan, will ensure that they leave his sinking ship in droves and probably do everything in their power to hasten its sinkage as they swim away.

I mean, fuck every last one of them and may they all ultimately drown together, but I encourage them to fuck one another over on their trip to the sea bed.

re: manafort & putin, I'm surprised I haven't heard more about Antonio Sabato Jr's flacking for Russian mail order brides

I still want to hear more about this. why aren't there more Sabàto truthers out there

xpost yeah art I liked how that detail was added, lest anybody said "oh EVERYBODY was talking to the Russian ambassador, it wasn't just Jeff"

The irony is that Jeff Sessions will be purged from Alabama voter rolls once he's a convicted felon.

richard engel on MSNBC is saying that russian media coverage of trump, which was massively pro-trump around election day, conspicuously stopped mentioning him entirely recently.

yeah there was an article on that earlier too

I have been doing the same google search for about 90 minutes now, over and over

a thought just struck me

now is the perfect time for trump to release their revised muslim man EO

Captain EO rushes it out without proper legal review, written in crayon and with clipart from Microsoft Works 95
