Do you mean they are big booty Russians? Clarity missing here. 

Big booty Latinas - from pretty much everywhere - Cuba, Colombia, Spain, Mexico

Russians (with most signage also in Russian) that are skinny and blonde.

I read a nice writeup of how russia uses disinformation to muddy the waters of objective truth, and it really rings true when applied to trump as well:

Trump and the GQP have succeeded in making truth finding a painful and frustrating, borderline impossible task. The result is a huge demographic that doesn't care about truth anymore because it's all so frustrating and upsetting, and so they just accept whatever they hear first or makes them feel best. MAGA all the way, baby

Yeah, that sounds about right.  Preemptive what-about-ism.  Yeah, I'm a traitor who rapes people and provokes insurrections that get cops killed, but see how they manhandled my sock drawer??

I'm also wondering what kind of creative editing they could do.  Not to change anything, but to remove context.  Anything that makes the FBI look like jackbooted thugs would serve his purpose.

I hope he releases the part where they find a penis pump in his sock drawer.

He said 'probably' guys.

You can't get in trouble when using a modifier like that. It's give you ironclad reasonable doubt.

Just like when you wink when you object to someone offing your wife.

And that there 'wouldn't' be an extra $25K in an offshore bank account that may / may not numbered 12346367748.

I mean, it's full proof logic.

AP on Weisselberg: https://apnews.com/article/allen-weisselberg-trump-cfo-plea-deal-e36dbd47ee3b0323e1fa102117718011

Quote

The plea bargain also requires Weisselberg to testify truthfully as a prosecution witness when the Trump Organization goes on trial in October on related charges. The company is accused of helping Weisselberg and other executives avoid income taxes by failing to report their full compensation accurately to the government. Trump himself is not charged in the case.

A. Shivved at Rikers?

B. "Falls" down stairs while free on bail and awaiting sentencing?

Um, that seems like a big deal.  Like Chopper said, pay no attention to that tweet from the guy who doesn't know what's up.

While this is clearly correct, I would like to say that it doesn't take much effort (or even intelligence) to be able to suss out the bullshit.  This approach works best with lazy people, which we have a fuck ton of.  Listen to NPR or watch network news and you'll get actual truth, or at least a lot closer to it.  It's the dipshits that live their lives on social media soundbites and obvious bullshit "news" like Fox that are the most susceptible to this tactic.

Eh, it's worse than just the dipshits. I know a number of incredibly intelligent people that are only smart when they turn on their brains. When it comes to politics, they just turn off their brains and stop thinking about things because "it's all just so unpleasant with the lying". Sure, when you press them on a specific issue they're usually reasonable, but they'll happily and mindlessly repeat whatever the fox news talking point is - even though they'll swear up and down they NEVER watch fox

My point being - people who fall for this are no longer willing to engage on facts as the first step in a discussion. They just assume ALL facts are bullshit because they were able to find an instance of #bothsides being wrong, and start to decide things based on "what people are saying".

The bolded.  Here's the fundamental conflict.  As an attorney, one has two inviolate duties:

1.  Allegiance to the Constitution.  It's literally the first line in the oath:

2.  A fiduciary duty to the client (that is, to put the client's interests above all else).

When the client's interests are patently opposed to the Constitution (as well as other duties, such as candor to the court/tribunal), you literally cannot do both: follow your oath and represent Trump in many of these matters.

And unstoppable Dotard meets an immovable Constitution.  And here we are.

Not too many attorneys want clients who will easily lie to them.   Seems like it’d be a nightmare to work with them.

Right, so they are lazy.

If it weren't for the Emperor coming along and shooting lightning out his fingers at Luke Skywalker, everyone would still think Darth Vader was the worst.

Not sure if this is the right thread for this, and it’s probably been addressed elsewhere (or in this thread, sorry - replying to a page from yesterday). But Cheney’s statement today that she would never vote for Democrat undermines everything she is doing, and might be more disappointing than all the things Trump did. We knew who Trump was. We didn’t know that everyone in the Republican party save for a few (Cheney included) would become part of the Trump cult. For her to say she’d never vote for a Democrat - in the face of what the Republican Party is today - proves that this is all bullshit and American lives are nothing more than fodder for partisan politics. 

Where did she say this?

Murrow said, “to be persuasive, we must be credible. To be credible, we must be believable. To be believable, we must be truthful.” Unfortunately, he was wrong.

He wasn't wrong; that shit just don't pay the bills these days.

She’s been an honest, rational, firm stool in a morass (heh heh) of GOP diarrhea mired in a factory farm waste containment pool whose environmental regulations she probably hobbled during the Trump presidential occupation period. A high bar to be sure, but I for one am appreciating her apparent principles.

Well, you stupid cunt.  In your lolsuit, you have more than a dozen defendants:

HILLARY R. CLINTON, HFACC, INC., DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL COMMITTEE, DNC SERVICES CORPORATION, PERKINS COIE, LLC, MICHAEL SUSSMANN, MARC ELIAS, DEBBIE WASSERMAN SCHULTZ, CHARLES HALLIDAY DOLAN, JR., JAKE SULLIVAN, ADAM SCHIFF, JOHN PODESTA, ROBERT E. MOOK, PHILLIPE REINES, FUSION GPS, GLENN SIMPSON, PETER FRITSCH, NELLIE OHR, BRUCE OHR, ORBIS BUSINESS INTELLIGENCE, LTD., CHRISTOPHER STEELE, IGOR DANCHENKO, NEUSTAR, INC., NEUSTAR SECURITY SERVICES, RODNEY JOFFE, JAMES COMEY, PETER STRZOK, LISA PAGE, KEVIN CLINESMITH, ANDREW MCCABE, ROD ROSENSTEIN,

Any of those could have posed a conflict for Magistrate Judge Reinhart.  And he did it after the amended complaint added Rosenstein.  Oddly enough, he was like the third or fourth magistrate to recuse himself from that case, when he did, and there have been at least a couple more magistrate recusals.

And lo, it appears that both Reinhart and Rosenstein were prosecutors in the Public Integrity Section at Main Justice in the early 90s.

Vapid twat.

https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/63184300/trump-v-clinton/

So by listing 20-30 or so people/entities she hoped that Reinhart would have to bow out due to a conflict/previous contact with these parties?

What would that accomplish?  Wouldn't someone else just take his place?

This is my father in law.

Amazing business man and business owner. Had made incredible choices in business. Amassed incredible wealth.

But now he’s high in his own supply. He fails to see how he was born on 2nd base… well rounding second.

He has become incredibly lazy in his world view as most boomers have. Global warming is a hoax / the worlds climate has changed throughout time…. Just look at the dinosaurs and Pangea. He says that un ironically and also with out realizing that plate tectonics  isn’t climate.

He laments that we aren’t tough enough on drug addicts and we should go back to the war on drugs.

He constantly talks about the homeless problem when we are almost at full employment. 
He complains about taxes constantly when he’s paying the least amount of taxes he has in his entire life.

the man is divorced from reality. But he can be because all his golfing buddies, his entire vacation home summering crowd feel the same way, and his Fox News + WSJ IV morning mainline support his pickled worldview.

This is the problem with him and all Boomers really. The successful ones … even if they had a niche talent / success … feel as if they are an expert on EVERYTHING or they are chasing that brass ring with only days, hours, or seconds left on the clock. The reason they had vent gotten that prize is because of the Libs, immigrants, blacks, browns, welfare moms, gays, and trannies. 
 

I’m done. I just don’t engage. Why would I.
i mean, the farther I go down the rabbit hole the more likely we end up on how I’m not doing my daughters any favors by the way I discipline them and how I’m doing something wrong bc my 6 and 4 year old can’t sit in a restaurant for 3 hours without getting fidgety. Mind you they sit there for 2.5 hrs with no incident but the last 30 minutes when it’s past their bedtime and after cake they spill the water. 
 

God dammit. What are we talking about again?!

About how conservative, oblivious, New Deal socialist-beneficiary Boomers are the worst people to inhabit Earth.

Friendly reminder that using a slur ironically—or through an implied bigot's perspective—if you aren't a part of the group the slur is aimed towards isn't much better than the people who use it seriously.

Here are some beautiful women to take the sting off of anyone who feels scolded.
