I admit to having a "thing" for Roger Stone. He fascinates me. He's bad. He plays dirty. And I can't stop watching him. When he was banned from Twitter I was heartbroken. His meltdowns were epic. In his most recent interview he says that 8 of his associates have been interviewed by Muller, but the public only knew about of them. Roger seems to be a target, and I expect the Muller team to squeeze him as hard as they have Manafort.

Reach out to every single person you might know and encourage them to vote in November. Donald Trump is surpassing unfit. He needs or be stopped. Our institutions are being stretched more than they have ever been stretched before. We are indeed in the midst of a constitutional crisis.

Rex Tillerson just majorly trolled Donald Trump (CNN) Rex Tillerson may be gone, but he hasn't forgotten. Speaking to soon-to-be graduates of the Virginia Military Institute on Wednesday, Tillerson dropped this truth bomb: "If our leaders seek to conceal the truth, or we as people become accepting of alternative realities that are no longer grounded in facts, then we as American citizens are on a pathway to relinquishing our freedom." Woof. Double woof. You may remember that Tillerson was removed as Secretary of State by President…

A Charade of Diplomacy covering the end of any possibility of Real Peace between Israel and Palestine!

Even though it has been only a couple of days since Trump removed the United States out of the Iran agreement, gasoline and oil are already increasing. I just got back from filling my car with gas. I generally use the same gas station. To fill my tank today was about 20% more than I usually pay. That increase will not hurt me. However, I resent having to pay more money because of a lunatic that has power to influence prices of items that I purchase. Here is a short excerpt from "Money Watch" a publication that is highly regarded: "With the U.S. abandoning the Iran deal, Americans can prepare for higher prices at the gas pump -- and a hit to e…

You know who unveiled his 2020 campaign slogan to a recent rally of his brainwashed supporters.... "KEEP AMERICA GREAT" he strongly chanted.....

Nothing Great here anymore.... LET IT GO !

But the firm announced on Thursday that he no longer worked there as of a day earlier. “After recognizing that this work is all consuming and is lasting longer than initially anticipated, Rudy has d…

A White House official mocked Sen. John McCain’s brain cancer diagnosis at an internal meeting on Thursday, a day after the Arizona Republican announced his opposition to President Trump’s nominee for CIA director, Gina Haspel. Special assistant Kelly Sadler made the derisive comments during a closed-door White House meeting of about two-dozen communications staffers on Thursday morning. “It doesn’t matter, he’s dying anyway,” Sadler said, according to a source familiar with the remarks at the meeting. The White House did not deny the account of Sadler’s remarks, which came amid a discussion of Haspel’s nomination and McCain’s opposition to it. “We res…

When will it STOP ? In his recent address to the NRA, besides flip-flopping on his position on gun control, Trump claims that due to his recent support from Kanye West, his African american support has doubled... The mind boggles as to HOW this can be possible since because of his recent comments about Slavery, almost the entire African american community has turned their backs on Kanye.... Trump continues to live in his own alternate Universe.

Skip to the end to see this funny comedian! Truly amazing to watch!

So, it was time for another White House correspondants Dinner, and Trump of course did NOT attend, but encouraged ALL the puppets on his team to do so, and "enjoy themselves".... Well Trumpy is grumpy today and tweeting up a storm, attacking the event and its host comedian Michelle Wolff. Of course Michelle took the usual shots at Trump regarding Stormy and all the other crazy shit he says and does, and he, of course took issue with it and HER, demeaning and degrading her in usual Trump style, and then calling for an end to the event. If HE can call for and END to things, WHY cant we ? (like an END to his presidency ?) FYI: Kathy Griffin and Omarosa wer…
