Color Me Suprised!

John McCain's actions finally intersected with his words!  Thank you Senator, thank you.  And big "thank yous" to Senators Murkowski and Collins as well, and of course, every single Democrat.

What A Maverick!

Mavericky Mavrick John McCain blasts McConnell's shitty, secret bill, says he wont vote for it, and then votes for it.  Toes the party line, maverickly, just like he always does.

I've Often Said...

If you don't want to be called an ignorant,  racist bigot, stop acting like an ignorant, racist bigot. 

Frankly, The Shame of Butler County deserves more than having papers thrown in his pig-ignorant face.  He really thinks he can insult, question the patriotism of,  and belittle people he doesn't like with impunity.

BOIIINGGG!!!

Up pops ANOTHER Russian!

Ike Kaveladze’s presence was confirmed by Scott Balber, an attorney for Emin and Aras Agalarov, the Russian developers who hosted the Trump-owned Miss Universe pageant in 2013. Balber said Kaveladze works for the Agalarovs’ company and attended as their representative.

Well, ok, technically, not a Russian, but a Georgian (and not the kind from Atlanta).

In 2000, Kaveladze’s actions as the head of a Delaware company called International Business Creations were the subject of a government investigation into how Russians and other foreigners were able to launder large amounts of money through U.S. banks.
The GAO report, which had been requested by Congress, concluded that it was “relatively easy” for these foreigners to use shell companies to open U.S. banks accounts and route hidden money through the American financial system.
The report described the activities of IBC’s president, who Balber confirmed was Kaveladze.

And yet has links to Russian money laundering.  Got it.

According to the GAO, Kaveladze opened 236 bank accounts in the U.S. for corporations formed in Delaware on behalf of mostly Russian brokers. Kaveladze told officers of two U.S. banks that he had conducted investigations of the Russian companies for which he opened accounts. However, he told GAO investigators that was not truthful.
“He admitted to us that he made such representations to the banks but that he in fact had not investigated the companies,” the report said.

And a liar to boot!  Fits right in with this den of thieves.

 

Whack-a-Mole

And I mean "mole" in its undercover sense.  It seems every time you turn around, up pops another Russian!

 

They Really Are This Stupid

Donald Trump Jr. made public on Twitter the e-mails that could very well pull down the administration and send him, Kushner, and Manafort to prison.

The email exchange showed clearly that Trump Jr. understood he was taking the meeting as a way of channeling information directly from the government of a nation hostile to the United States to his father’s campaign. It is the most concrete public evidence to date suggesting that top Trump campaign aides were eager for Russia’s assistance in the campaign.

No lawyer would advise a client to make such damning evidence available to the public.  This, coupled with everything else we've learned over the past year shows there is no smoke, the blazing flames from this tire fire of an administration are so hot its combusting with 100% efficiency.

The Smoking Gun

All doubt is now gone.

Donald Trump Jr., the president’s son, said in a statement Sunday that a Russian lawyer with whom he met in June 2016 claimed she could provide potentially damaging information about his father’s likely Democratic opponent, Hillary Clinton.
He said he had agreed to the meeting at Trump Tower in New York because he was offered information that would be helpful to the campaign of his father, then the presumptive GOP presidential nominee.

So Trump Jr. admits in public that he and other campaign officials met with a person close to the Russian government and lobbying on its behalf in order to obtain damaging information on Hillary Clinton.

This is game, set, match, except for just one thing...IOKIYAR.

Your Asshole Of The Day

Chris Christie.  What a freaking asshole.
