    I interviewed for 6 hours over 10 days and have concluded "RussiaGate" is scandal from which Trump presidency cannot recover.

  3. In 1988, frightened jurors acquitted 20 members of the Lucchese crime family of dozens of charges. The mobsters stood & applauded for 10 minutes. No one interpreted that to mean the Lucchese family was not dangerous. Quite the opposite.

    This prayer breakfast is not about honoring God & being a prophetic voice, but an attempt to use religious activities as cover for irreligious politics & policy actions.

    Over & over again, any honest look shows that ⁦⁩ has failed on his economic promises & is just running up the national debt and robbing the vulnerable of returns on their savings. Poor and middle class financing a bubble for the rich.

  7. And it is all being subsidized by artificially low interest rates that rob senior citizens, in particular, and all of us of any meaningful return on traditional savings. That’s okay as a shortterm response to an economic crisis. But not in times of abundance.

    (1,2) Tonight was a rough night. I disrupted the State Of The Union and was detained because I let my emotions get the best of me. I simply want to be able to deal with the reality of gun violence and not have to listen to the lies about the 2A as happened tonight.

    Criminal justice reform reality: First Step Act good. But Trump AG’s have tried to dismantle reforms put in place during Obama years that were far more significant and led to simultaneous reduction in both the federal prison population and crime rate for first time in 40 years.

    It’s not just that ’s promises about industrial jobs “all coming back” have totally failed, it’s that, once again, the trend lines of the Trump economy are just extensions of trends in the economy, for good & bad. He’s still just riding Obama’s wake.

  11. And wherever has had measurable effect on economy, he has succeeded only in making something worse than under . Falling factory jobs. Highest govt debt level ever. Farmers ravaged by pointless trade wars. We’re just lucky Trump hasn’t done more.

    Actually the is about selling as many guns as possible for the gun manufacturers who control it. Duping gullible “Confederates” into seeing danger everywhere and linking guns to their sense of self worth—with no regard for the slaughters of innocents—is central to that.

    Every 4 years, people forget how vicious primaries are, claiming you can't win with rancor. In 2016, the GOP mauled one another & Trump won. In 2008, the Clinton/Obama war was the most hateful I've seen. Obama won. Don't forget what Bush/Rove did to McCain in 2000; he won.

    Trump had a Republican House and a Republican Senate working with him his first two years, and the results were so bad the GOP lost 40 House seats in the 2018 midterms. You used to be the House *Majority* Leader, remember?

    Given the Trump ad just aired during the Super Bowl, re-sharing our reporting from last year documenting efforts by Trump’s DOJ to lock back up the people freed by Trump’s First Step Act

  20. Undoubtably true that acquitted (or re-elected) is exponentially more brazen. Also certain that if Dems retain House, he will be impeached again—for new acts or on evidence finally released. There is no double jeopardy if no criminal charge, right ?

    How do we function as a democracy when we acknowledge that our President is allowed to break the law and yet look the other way? Not calling witnesses shows that have lost any moral compass. Shame on you, (4/4)
