US Politics December 2018: ~very legal and very cool~

whoa there are Wisconsin ilxors

where you from exactly

Illinois ain't exactly deep blue (even if it looks that way on paper), but the only place I've seen actual Trump signs and Republican candidate signs in large numbers has been right outside Milwaukee, between there and Madison.

The entire country is basically the same, rural (red/outer suburbs) and blue (urban areas/inner suburbs)

find the nearest university and walk 20 miles to the left, and you'll find a trump sign

trump is on the far left, claims ilxor dot com poster ‘karl malone’

So...about Bob Barr...

how soon we forget the only actually funny Trump nickname

trump and the republican party regularly 'take hostages' in their domestic legislative negotiations. i guess it stands to reason that they'd start taking real physical hostages

She was arrested in Vancouver BC though... think Trudeau is just gonna give her up to the US?

trudeau should take a hostage before handing over anyone to the US

trade wars are good and easy to win, especially if you convert them into real wars

so thiiiiis is how the apocalypse kicks off, nice

meanwhile, senator elect josh hawley (R-missouri) is now under investigation by MO's (republican) secretary of state. you know it's probably bad if a republican chooses to do their own job at the expense of another republican

Glad I got a new person to learn about

Aside from a brief stint at China Construction Bank, the 46-year-old executive has spent her entire career at Huawei. Her brother, Meng Ping, also known as Ren Ping, works at a Huawei subsidiary, and there was speculation that they were being groomed for succession. The Huawei founder reportedly shot that down in a letter to employees in 2013, saying his children lacked the vision, character and ambition to lead the company.

Anyway this is pretty ominous as Huwaei seems to be closely linked to the Chinese government ans has often been accused of espionage

she was arrested based on charges in the US, so... yes

still feel like Trudeau should take some sort of hostage

Take our president, please!

McCready officially withdraws his concession in North Carolina House race.

good

... 30 minutes later ...

Around 10:35pm, a bomb threat was called into the Time Warner Center & the building was evacuated. The threat has not been substantiated at this time; we’re on scene performing a comprehensive sweep-and-search of the facility. We’ll share more info as it becomes available. pic.twitter.com/VtLL2zmilJ

CORRECTION: Police responded to a call at 10:07 PM.

— NYPD NEWS (@NYPDnews) December 7, 2018

i guess trump tweeted after he placed the call then

whoa there are Wisconsin ilxors

lol

wait are some of you guys not in Wisconsin

"What's Made Milwaukee Famous (Has Made An Ilxor Out Of Me)"

Amazing that NYPD felt compelled to note the time stamp, with good reason ofc

"senator elect josh hawley (R-missouri)" fuck

The dipshit had a big night on Twitter (and he's still going). This was a particularly sad fart...

Does the Fake News Media ever mention the fact that Republicans, with the very important help of my campaign Rallies, WON THE UNITED STATES SENATE, 53 to 47? All I hear is that the Open Border Dems won the House. Senate alone approves judges & others. Big Republican Win!

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 7, 2018

Lol, that's incredible.

I had to check, Dems won 22 races and GOP 11. Twice as many.

wow, he was really on one last night huh, and again this morning

have we ever gotten to the bottom of who the '14/17/however many angry democrats' are btw

bye bye?

Robert Mueller and Leakin’ Lyin’ James Comey are Best Friends, just one of many Mueller Conflicts of Interest. And bye the way, wasn’t the woman in charge of prosecuting Jerome Corsi (who I do not know) in charge of “legal” at the corrupt Clinton Foundation? A total Witch Hunt...

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 7, 2018

He's having a busy morning.

he should eat more bran

or the magazine of a firearm

you're a butterfly, donald, and butterflies are free to fly,
fly away, high away

not a good sign for the trump gang :(

did somebody mention a swamp that needs draining? no?

The Angry Democrats are Mueller's team.

lol Trump will totally deny that any of his friendships are non-transactional if it'll keep him out of chokey.

prison-bound, indemnitized
sweet putin, whisper in my ear

OMG, there are rumors that John Kelly might resign! Stop the presses!

What do you mean these rumors have been swirling for months and months? No, seriously, these are *new* rumors. This changes *everything*. Without his mature, experienced, stabilising influence, Trump is totally going to go off the rails. This is it! This is the moment we have been waiting for! With him gone, with Sec. Nielsen gone ...

What do you mean she's not gone yet? She's been gone for months hasn't she? I could have sworn I read something about that.

Anyway, RIP Maddog Mattis. You put up a good fight. Resist!

RT: "So often, the president would say here's what I want to do and here's how I want to do it and I would have to say to him, Mr. President I understand what you want to do but you can't do it that way. It violates the law."

hmm i wonder what it was about a former exxon man that might have made trump think he would be amenable to bending - if not outright breaking - the law

Leakin’ Lyin’ James Comey

Ooooh, do "One-eyed, one-horned, Flyin' Purple Liberty Eater" next!

Just as I'm reasonably sure Trump has no real aversion to breaking the law, I'm equally sure that in many/most cases he doesn't actually know that what he wants to do actually breaks the law or that there are even any laws pertaining to the thing he wants to do.

well, there is that too, yeah - he's not really known as a scrupulous law-respecter

god don jr is such a shithead
