I would like to see this happen. If accountability means anything in politics or this country they will do what needs doing.

My avatar has changed from that so what is wrong with my new one? It’s a picture of Tesla’s Energy Tower I think. Is that bad too?

It’s actually a telephone tower in Stockholm, Sweden in 1890.

Thanks for the heads up. I had done a search for Tesla and for some reason this was one of the photos google brought up and I thought it looked cool.

I read the article, though not twice, as you posted it. I don’t agree that it’s as black and white as the Harvard Law Professor says. I have no idea what went on in any possible meetings with the President and Comey and I have no idea what was really said.

If nothing else, it just brought more attention , to a battle that was brewing before Trump got elected.

There are a lot of people here that say Trump is ignorant, stupid, unqualified, stupid, ignorant, incompetent. They have a right to echo what others are saying if they believe that. Though I may not like Trump, he is not as ignorant, stupid, unqualified, and incompetent as some really want to give him credit for. There is a method to his madness and it serves him well no matter what any of us might want to say.

He has changed the playing field in American politics. This isn’t entirely his doing but he saw an opportunity to raise the stakes while getting support for it from all the Americans that were ready for change. The status-quo doesn’t have any experience in an atmosphere such as this and that is why they try to beef up the old tactics. It won’t be enough. They will have to evolve, they will have to come down and get in touch with the people before they have a chance in hell at turning the tables.

You quoted me correctly. Thank you for that.

Jeff Sessions also lied under oath.

It’s a dog and pony show all around.

Yet this man is going to double down on mass-incarceration, when we are already the most imprisoned nation in not only the world, but in history.

This remains to be seen frevious. There is so much garbage floating in the water right now that it’s hard to see the bottom.

I place no statement of fact or fake on either of these articles. They are not written by me nor do they verify any belief or opinion I might or might not hold. They are being presented for discussion purposes only.

Condoleezza Rice refuses to take Trump-bashing bait on ‘The View,’ gives Putin perspective.

Hysteria, overblown hooey part of the fake news cycle.

We’re wrapping up our live coverage of the cyber-attacks now but here’s a summary of what has happened so far:

The total number of NHS services which have been affected stands at 39 hospital trusts with GP practices and dental services also targeted across England and Scotland
Some 74 countries including the UK, US, China, Russia, Spain, Italy and Taiwan have reported being affected by a virus

Theresa May said the attack was not targeted at the NHS, it was part of an international incident, NHS Digital has said there is no evidence patient data has been compromised.

http://www.dailykos.com/story/2017/5/9/1660355/-James-Comey-lied-under-oath-will-congress-do-something

It is being widely reported that James Comey lied to congress last week. He widely misstated the number of emails that Huma Abedin forwarded to her then husband Anthony Weiner. This is, of course, being characterized as an exaggeration, but saying under oath that “hundreds and thousands’ emails were involved when in reality there might have been dozens is like a cop exaggerating a cell phone into a gun and using it as an excuse to shoot a black kid. In both cases the exaggerations are for the purpose or providing cover for law enforcement to engage in unlawful acts, like murder or swaying an election.

The question then is what is congress going to do. Congress has shown in the past that disrespecting them with a lie, even an ancillary lie, is grounds for serious penalties, up to impeachment proceedings. Are the going to tolerate our top FBI man making up facts to support his belief that some people are just crooks and even if there is no evidence, that evidence should be manufactured? Or are they going to take a stand and begin proceeding against this person who himself seems to be a criminal.

The only downside to removing Comey, is, of course, that Trump will likely put someone in at the FBI who is even a more blatant criminal.

http://www.dailykos.com/stories/2017/5/12/1661688/-Sen-Chris-Murphy-Trump-law-firm-that-shows-no-income-in-Russia-named-Russia-Law-Firm-of-The-Year

Sen. Chris Murphy points out that Donald Trump’s law firm that he used to show no income in Russia, but with few exceptions, won an award.

Trump’s law firm won, Russia Law Firm of the Year in 2016.

Like Sen. Murphy ended his tweet, unreal.

Morgan, Lewis & Bockius, the law firm advising President-elect Donald Trump on handling his business conflicts, won the Russia Law Firm of the Year award in 2016.

The law firm announced the award in a press releaselast May, noting it was recognized in the Chambers & Partners’ 2016 Chambers Europe guide. According to Morgan Lewis’ website, the firm’s Moscow office staffs more than 40 lawyers who are well known in the Russian market and “have deep familiarity with the local legislation, practices and key players.”

Lawrence Tribe, constitutional law professor at Harvard said something interesting: By claiming Comey had told him that the FBI wasn’t investigating him, Trump waived executive privilege with regard to Trump/Comey exchanges.

Samuel Buell, law professor at Duke (and former federal prosecutor), said that while it’s ambiguous at the moment if firing Comey qualifies as obstruction of justice, threatening him later on Twitter makes the case for obstruction much clearer.

So basically: All the levers of power are Trump’s to lose, so keep tweeting!

Funny, because Comey probably waived his legal rights too, by discussing them openly as well. Weird, I know, a horse a piece. He said, she said … not a lot to go on there.

UFO's & other anomalies ... do you believe?

My mother and grandmother both saw a UFO in West Virginia when my mother was very small, and they both still remember it. They were walking down the street one afternoon and a bright light seemed to follow them, and when they stopped at the corner and turned onto another street the light did a 90 degree turn as well. They started to get scared and run, and the light followed them, apparently disappearing before they reached home. Neither of them has any idea what it could have been.

Btw, this never happened.
DWI.

Read the rules of the thread please. If you guys can’t I will let the moderators handle it.

Thank you.
