Oh deary me Shammy, you Trumpers will say or do anything to justify your choice of a putrid, narcissistic sociopath, a morally, ethically and politically  corrupt incompetent NY hood as President, because he got you judges and tax cuts. 

Like other Republicans who bought into this corrupt bargain, you will drop off him as soon as you face the realization that Democrats will destroy your party, because of him.

I'll agree with the judges bit.

Bizarre goings on in Wisconsin and other states Shammy. Republicans are so corrupt and bad losers.

This is another area you could take advice from us. When the PM calls an election, the government moves into caretaker mode and effectively hands the keys to the Governor General to mind, where basic functions continue but no significant stuff can be enacted. Mainly just paying bills and keeping the lights on. If the govt is retained at the election it goes back into normal function, if it loses the opposition takes over immediately.

None of this using an 8 week period to wreck the joint and remove powers from the incoming administration.

And there we go again making light of the most significant threat to the western democratic world order, the corrupt Trump and his autocratic leanings.

Trump's about as much threat to world order as any other passing comet in history. Old things always matter more in the end than passing things.

They are both anti globalization movements. This one is just the morphing of Nationalists and anti globalists. They are based on rising inequality and a  failure/refusal of govt/the system to deal with it. Trumpism is just another iteration.

August: Trump asks John Kelly to stay on as COS. Kelly announces he will be there till at least 2020

November: Melania clashes with Kelly

December: Revealed Kelly interviewed by Mr Mueller.

Donald: Goodbye John.

Shammy, do you think the big subpoena battle going on behind closed doors I asked you about last month was John Kelly, and Trump trying to claim executive privilege over him testifying to Mueller? 

That would certainly fit.

I wondered how long Kelly would last at the kindergarten. Trump lovers must like revolving doors.
It's amazing how donald talks up his appointments then tips it on them when they leave. What happens when an already dumb as doc chit old man enters his dotage?

And it seems that everyone who leaves/is fired goes straight to the Special Counsel's office. 

Nobody trusts pardons. 

The two big Mueller filings today will be interesting They really have Trump worked up. I will be looking for references to Pence and Preibus as well as the well documented targets. 

I think Bannon will prove to be the cockroach in this nuclear explosion. He will have been very early in flipping and will survive. He is the ideologue who used Trump as his vehicle, not the other way around. He is all about 'his' movement.

How bad are these 3 sentencing reports Shammy?

Individual 1 is an undicted criminal many times over. 

This will really test you Trumpers 'I dont care what Trump did, lock her up' stuff.

How bad was that Comey stunt today? These shameless Republicans will do anything to appease the Orange Traitor.

I have no idea. If Kelly is under subpoena, IMO it is unlikely he is resigning. He is probably wornout though. Don't doubt he thinking about it. It's a busy Friday.

There has been a secret legal case going on for 2 months behind closed doors between the SC and the Trump administration that a Trump judge recused himself from. It has gone up and down and through appeals. It is due for another closed door proceeding on the 12th(I think).

It is a busy day, and a bad one for Cohen with SDNY and SC seemingly playing good cop/bad cop routine on him, looking for more info out of him. SDNY have recommended 4-6 years with no leniency. Mueller says he wants whatever is decided upon concurrent, SDNY have opened the door for more cooperation.

Interesting section around Cohen's testimony, him lying publicly before it presumably to send messages to others then he coordinated lies with the WH. That is pretty damning if true, and a lot of people are looking for lawyers tonight.

Trump is taking full control of The Federal Reserve.
Trump is legally allowed to do this.
He can even start an entire new Federal Reserve, also an Act that is legal, written into the constitution.

Forget the Mueller stories, the biggest story coming is Trump taking control of the Fed Reserve.

There have been murmurs about him doing this for a while, but I have just been advised he is going to completely alter the Fed. It is going to rock world markets. 
Here is one story of many, written a few months ago.
