        Call me perceptive, but I think 'loaded' is a euphemism.

        Imagine the transcripts being generated by the current White House...if they're not being continually edited or torn up.

        Can the WH now start saying the president is unavailable because he's corrupt?

        When Nixon came to Puerto Rico when he was a senator, he stayed at the governor’s mansion, with Luis Muñoz Marín as the host. Muñoz outdrank him to the point of Nixon falling asleep...

        Yet Trump is a teetotaler— and 10 times as dangerous as Nixon.

        Scowcroft didn't ask for clarification and didn't comment. The operator didn't put the call through from the PM to the oval or State, but got a military advisor on the horn? What a weird administration

        Yes, the good ol’ days when things in the Oval were just “weird.” I almost pine for those days. 😉
