The Death of Politics
Just out: The Death of Politics: How to Heal Our Frayed Republic After Trump by Peter Wehner.
“Any nation that elects Donald Trump to be its president has a remarkably low view of politics.”
It's Possible Trump Gets Crushed In 2020
Josh Marshall: “The 2020 presidential election is an election with everything on the line for the United States. Four years of Trump is a national disaster. Eight years is a confirmation that it was no fluke. It embeds his degenerate style of government in the fabric of the Republic for the future. For those of us who believe in civic republicanism and a liberal future, no stone can be left unturned to ensure his defeat. It’s not just that the stakes are so high. He has big advantages in the electoral college. Incumbents usually get reelected. And let’s be frank: he already did once what many of us thought was all but impossible.”
“But we’d be lying to ourselves if we didn’t recognize another possible scenario, one which a lot of the factual evidence suggests is not at all unlikely. That is that Trump is a historically unpopular president; he routinely polls over 50 percent of the voting population saying they will definitely vote against his reelection; and he is likely to be crushed in his bid for reelection in 18 months.”
This news is too good for the left to handle.
Americans Win today.
@mattgaetz
Identifying someone as a Russian spy who was actually an American spy seems like a major problem in the #MuellerReport
What else did they misrepresent?
Mueller should be compelled to testify under oath
What a beautiful week
Democrats are crashing
Stock market had its best week of the year.
Trump gets action on the border without any help from democrats.
Tremendous trip overseas.
Reagan is giving Trump a standing Ovation

Mueller seized and searched his star "collusion" witness Nader's computer in January 2018, yet never charged him w child-porn trafficking or referred such charges to US attorney. A federal criminal attorney told me: "There's no way he could not have known"
Cowardly King Obama , a very good post.
I am waiting on the details of the agreement.
1. The Comey firing. Last week, in an interview with Jan Crawford of CBS News, Barr claimed that Trump’s firing of then–FBI Director James Comey in May 2017 couldn’t be obstruction. The attorney general told Crawford, “We don’t believe that the firing of an agency head could be established as having the probable effect, objectively speaking, of sabotaging a proceeding.”
That statement contradicts Mueller’s report. The report says that Comey’s firing could have reined in the investigation by “providing the President with the opportunity to appoint a director … more protective of his personal interests” or “discourag[ing] a successor director or other law enforcement officials” from pursuing the president. The report presents extensive evidence that Trump, prior to firing Comey, pressed him unsuccessfully for personal “loyalty” and favors. In particular, Trump asked Comey to drop the investigation of former national security adviser Michael Flynn, who had been caught lying about his contacts with Russia. That request exposed Trump’s explicit intent, through the FBI director, to obstruct the investigation.
Put a sock on it Roger.
Yes, this is a win for Trump. He finally convince Mexico that having illegal immigrants flowing unimpeachable through their country is not in their best interest.
And he stuck to his guns despite the "free trade" critics getting wobbly in the knees.

Now that the Mexico Government has acted will the Socialist Democrats do the Same at home?

except for two very explicit things -
one, trump appointed wray, who is as much of a fucking hack as comey and mccabe, so saletan's hypothetical fails on THAT level.
then there's the constitutional authority. the director of the FBI serves at the pleasure of the president, and can be fired anytime, for any reason, or for no fucking reason at all BY the president. no one, including some fucking pinhead from slate gets to second guess this. NO ONE.
once again, a slate article so fucking ludicrous it should've been written in crayon.
good job, alky.
The New Green Deal is not about the environment, it is about Socialism . The control and money .
"Green New Deal advocate Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) told reporters on Capitol Hill on Wednesday that any considerable climate change program must come with a minimum $10 trillion price tag to have a real “shot.”
“I think we really need to get to $10 trillion to have a shot,” she told the Hill."
Roger has a very bright white new flag flying this morning.

In a key finding of the Mueller report, Ukrainian businessman Konstantin Kilimnik, who worked for Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort, is tied to Russian intelligence.
But hundreds of pages of government documents — which special counsel Robert Mueller possessed since 2018 — describe Kilimnik as a “sensitive” intelligence source for the U.S. State Department who informed on Ukrainian and Russian matters.
Why Mueller’s team omitted that part of the Kilimnik narrative from its report and related court filings is not known. But the revelation of it comes as the accuracy of Mueller’s Russia conclusions face increased scrutiny.
The incomplete portrayal of Kilimnik is so important to Mueller’s overall narrative that it is raised in the opening of his report. “The FBI assesses” Kilimnik “to have ties to Russian intelligence,” Mueller’s team wrote on Page 6, putting a sinister light on every contact Kilimnik had with Manafort, the former Trump campaign chairman.
What it doesn’t state is that Kilimnik was a “sensitive” intelligence source for State going back to at least 2013 while he was still working for Manafort, according to FBI and State Department memos I reviewed.
Kilimnik was not just any run-of-the-mill source, either.
He interacted with the chief political officer at the U.S. Embassy in Kiev, sometimes meeting several times a week to provide information on the Ukraine government. He relayed messages back to Ukraine’s leaders and delivered written reports to U.S. officials via emails that stretched on for thousands of words, the memos show.
The FBI knew all of this, well before the Mueller investigation concluded.
