    Bush and Cheney did this after 2001. They particularly wanted raw intel related to Iraq. Worked out fine iirc.

    Obamacare is dead. Long live Obamacare.

    Trump publicly colluded with the Russians during the campaign. It's as though we'll only believe it when we learn he did it in secret too.

    "This was not a thug. ... He was highly intelligent and he was at the peak of his career."
