But how awesome can hate fucking a desiccated hag who’s nothing more than a skeleton with a polyester wig be?

It would be all dry and rickety and sound like a cup of Yahtzee dice rattling around.

Shortly before the holidays, I received a call from New York Times reporter Michael Schmidt asking me to meet with him about some reporting he had done. Schmidt did not describe the subject until we met up, when he went over with me a portion of the congressional interview of former FBI General Counsel James Baker, who was then my Brookings colleague and remains my Lawfare colleague. When he shared what Baker had said, and when I thought about it over the next few days in conjunction with some other documents and statements, a question gelled in my mind. Observers of the Russia investigation have generally understood Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s work as focusing on at least two separate tracks: collusion between the Russian government and the Trump campaign, on the one hand, and potential obstruction of justice by the president, on the other. But what if the obstruction was the collusion—or at least a part of it?

Late last year, I wrote a memo for Schmidt outlining how I read all of this material, a memo from which this post is adapted.

Today, the New York Times is reporting that in the days following the firing of James Comey, the FBI opened an investigation of President Trump. It wasn’t simply the obstruction investigation that many of us have assumed. It was also a counterintelligence investigation predicated on the notion that the president’s own actions might constitute a national security threat:

Well, there goes the argument that the investigation is "limited in scope."

I'm a federal employee (forced to work without pay) and live in an area dominated by agriculture.  These past couple of weeks have been eyeopening for me.  People who I thought were good friends have shown me their true selves with this shutdown. Granted, I know I live right in the middle of Trump country, but never would I have imagined people I've known for two decades, whom I've shared meals with in their home and in mine, whom my wife and I have donated money, groceries and supplies to when they've hit hard times, or were isolated from their homes due to the Milk River flooding them out.....they have completely flipped and actually happy about this situation.  

And I dont wish this on anyone, but situations like the people in the article above are what its going to take to break this insanity.  Farmers and ranchers are going to have to miss their ag welfare (farm subsidies, CRP payments, etc) before they turn on this hack.

They'll still blame Democrats. "If they had just listened to Donald..." Besides, Hillary would have just taken it from them anyway.

This is exactly it.... It's not about the wall, it's about the theatrics of the fight and being able to shift "blame" to someone.  Now one can argue if this fight is effective to his cause and overall GOP causes, but this has never been about "The Wall".  It's symbolic behavior.

And this highlights it..... He tries to sell it however he can, it reeks of desperation and it's the stench of being without principle.  He's simply a carnival barker. 

And why all of this.... why exert this much bullshit into a silly fucking wall?  Because it gets morons like this to think he's fighting for them, when he's really killing them.

Congrats!  Reading this made me laugh out loud which does't happen often because of the sheer sadness of stupidity.  There are tiers of stupid and this is a simplified tiered system.  First tier is perhaps naive--teach them by whatever means and they can fish for themselves--generally called an education.  Second tier may look like somebody pushing a door that is clearly marked pull--pull the handle and nobody is the worse off but in general, they're going to need some help.   Third tier may be something like I'm doing what's best by burning you and your neighborhood down along with my own home because somebody I trust started the fire and I won't be as wrong if we all don't have homes--we're all just fucked.    Tier 3 doesn't just want to lose all they own with their bad gambling habit but wants to take everything you have as well.

Really hope the Democrats aren't congratulating themselves during a shutdown with all their cards still in their hands.  Really hope they're not congratulatory at all--the whole lot.  We've come real close to losing everything through foreign and corporate interests, polling station fraud and gerrymandering.  Like Wiley Coyote, we're standing perilously close to a crevice and all we need is an anvil, TNT, loud scare or celebratory back slap to send us over.

Hopefully he'll get his walls with bars real soon.  Would be nice if his crew were sent to separate detention centers for long periods of time as well.

I would love to see this treasonous and completely in the bag Russian clown see the four walls in Leavenworth. That won't happen. All of us who want to see our country come back from the hell he has drug us through know it. 

What will drive him nuts and cause him the most pain is seeing everything he has in Manhattan taken from him. You want to hurt him you take his tower. You take every last damn thing he values. Seeing his name erased from Manhattan and any other building near it will be the final nail in his vanity coffin.

I lived in Stamford for a year. He has a building there. Saw the damn thing every day after I got off the Metro North from Manhattan. His footprint is all over the Northeast. You want to kill his spirit then you go after the physical properties. Thankfully, I believe, Robert Mueller and the SDNY (As well as other.jurisdictions) are far ahead of our public knowledge in what they are doing. I honestly believe we know a small percentage of what those men and women do at this juncture.

So where have @Johnny Sack and @Onboard 2.0 and their ilk slinked off to?  That fake dimension where they can blame Democrats for not building a wall when the republicans had both the senate and House for 2 years....

How human beings work is odd at best. I will feel a certain sense of satisfaction the day he either resigns, is impeached or get Mondaled in 2020 if the dying Republican Party continues to stand down. 

The two guys you mentioned will not admit they were wrong. Millions of our fellow citizens will never admit they were wrong in their continued support of Trump. It is going to be hellish in trying to reunite this country once Trump is gone and having to put adults back in positions of power who have to repair our once rightful standing in the world. You just kind of hope that a few of the Trumpkins will show a modicum of decency in the process. I doubt that, but one can hope.

If not, oh well. They'll just be left behind to wallow in their sorrows where they will belong at that point.

Wrong ?  Nothing wrong with Hillary Clinton not being president.  Everything in fact is very right that she's not.  That the democrats now change their tune about a secure border is typical politics.  

Trumps never been my guy, but Hillary has  been someone who I have stated quite clearly should never be president of the United States. Fucking slimy crook who gamed the system her entire career in Washington politics.  That democrats could support someone like Hillary makes them the same people who can't admit they're wrong they claim republicans are.

So whoever the fuck you are piss off.

Yeah, but, I mean, how is telling (checks notes) the Russian FM and ambassador that he fired the FBI director to (checks next page of notes) take the heat off of the Russian investigation in ANY way connected to Russia? Huh? Checkmate, libtards!

Everyone in America should watch this four minutes of testimony now.  Probably the most concise and comprehensive take on the big picture.

Secure border does not equal wall.

Very true, but a wall in locations that are dangerous or hard to patrol is a good idea for both the border patrol, and the people who risk crossing at those locations. And a secure border is a good thing (funny how all the democrats felt that way just a few years ago).  Funnel the crossing attempts to smaller, easier patrolled areas, and a physical barrier system becomes effective.
