Hats off to Mr. Mueller


Don't know why there's no sun up in the sky....Stormy Daniels.

It's ironic. The biggest hero that will emerge from the most devastating political scandal in United States history will be a Republican. There are so many things that Robert Mueller is uncovering - things that have nothing to do with Russian "collusion" - but which he is obliged, nevertheless, to pursue as a prosecutor. It's a lot different from Republican Kenneth Starr's persecution of Democrat Bill Clinton twenty years ago (Where does the time go?) In 1998, when Kenny Boy was unable to uncover crimes committed in the Whitewater deal or the Paula Jones affair, he went searching for them. The only way he was able to nail Bill was by questioning him about Monica Lewinsky, whose affair with Clinton he knew about in advance thanks to information given to him by a woman named Paula Tripp. Naturally Bubba fibbed. 

BINGO: PURJURY! 

Fooling around with Monica was not a crime. Lying about it was. Starr knew that the president would lie in response to so embarrassing a question. He was determined to bring Clinton down, come heck or high water. It was political persecution, pure and simple.

Nobody can accuse Robert Mueller of political persecution. 

There's never been anything like this situation in American politics before. No one ever thought that there would ever again be anything that even came close to Watergate. Truth be told, Iran Contra was, I believe, far worse than the crimes Dick Nixon and his gang committed against the American people. Unfortunately, Ronald Reagan was able to elude justice. The same is true for the Bush Mob when they illegally invaded Iraq based solely on information they knew damned well was false. How many people died as  result of those lies? We'll never know the answer to that question.

What is happening now is different. This time evasion will not be possible. People are talking. Don't be surprised if, two or three years down the road, we see a former president of the United States hauled off in shackles to Leavenworth. This is an extraordinary moment to witness. I cannot believe my good fortune.

Perhaps the people will finally wake up to the damage conservatism has historically done to this nation. Perhaps not. To be honest with you I'm not optimistic. In the first televised interview Nixon gave six years after leaving the White House in utter disgrace, he famously complained to Barbara Walters (and I'm paraphrasing here): "The trouble with the history books is that they're mostly written by liberals". He was absolutely correct - and there's a dandy good reason for that, too. In order to write about American  history, you must have a broad and comprehensive knowledge of that history. Once one has obtained that knowledge, one begins to notice a pattern: Every time the right wing has been able to seize control all three branches of our government, they have destroyed this country economically. When George W. Bush appointed Samuel Alito to the Supreme Court in 2006, for the first time since the thirties, the conservatives had a firm lock on all three of those branches. What happened? Within two years we experienced the worst economic catastrophize since the thirties. 

Are you seriously under the delusion that that is merely a coincidence? Have another sip. That's the biggest problem, in my opinion, with the American people. Their knowledge of the history of the country that most of them profess to love so well is almost non-existent in most instances. In my experience, whenever I have asked people who the president  was during the first world war, the overwhelming majority of them have not been able to correctly answer that question. That's pretty pathetic, don'cha think?

The coming year promises to be a rolling constitutional crisis. A situation this volatile and toxic cannot continue; and in fact, I don't believe that it will. By the time 2018 is mercifully over, Donald Trump will no longer be president. Either he will be impeached or he'll resign - or the stress will kill him. I know that is a horrible prediction to make but, let's face it, he's a relatively old man who is  obviously not in the best physical shape. And according to almost every anonymous source from within the Executive Mansion, he is consistently stressed-out and is becoming unglued by the pressure of being chief-executive.

Donald Trump's profound flaw was his complete ignorance of the constitutional role of the president. Think about it: For his entire life he had no board of directors to answer to. He was, in effect, a board of one. For all of his adult career he made decisions and barked orders - and was answerable to no one. His fatal mistake was in assuming that the presidency would work in the same manner. That is why it is a blessing that billionaire Ross Perot was not able to win the White House in 1992. He had the identical, perfectly goofy notion. Trump may not understand it as of this moment, but he'll understand it soon enough: He is answerable to us. We are the board of directors. 

As of today, people are fleeing this disgusting administration by the scores. It's all a case of getting out while the getting is good, with their reputations hopefully only marginally damaged. Isn't this interesting?

Ten Democratic senators are defending their seats in states President
Trump won in the 2016 presidential election, and five of those
lawmakers are at risk of losing to their Republican opponents, according
to a new Axios poll.

Sens. Jon Tester, D-Mont., Joe Manchin, D-W.Va., Claire McCaskill,
D-Mo, and Joe Donnelly, D-Ind., are the most vulnerable, and have
approval ratings of about 50 percent in their respective states. Trump’s
approval in these four states is well above that of these four senators.
Sen.Heidi Heitkamp, D-N.D., also narrowly trails her Republican opponent,
and all five are at risk of losing in these states, all of which have
Trump approval ratings above 50 percent.

The poll is a reality check of sorts for Democrats, who have designs
on taking back the House and Senate this year. Losing five of their own
seats would make it much harder for Democrats to tip the balance in the
Senate, which is now commanded by Republicans with a narrow 51-49
majority.

"That's the biggest problem, in my opinion, with the American people."

So the "biggest" problem Tom, is the American people don't know as much as you claim to know and aren't as far left as you are. Correct?

How very elitist of you, how very un-diverse of you, to believe you have the "true" knowledge on everything. Knowledge that allows you week after week to make claims about our elected President, without offer one bit of evidence to support your claims except your faith like belief that leftism is the only government that works and HRC would have been a liberal president..
When are you going to offer proof not speculation for your position that President Trump has violate the Constitution?

Why under a President who you hold in such low regard is it

unemployment for Blacks and Hispanics at a record low

the overall unemployment rate 4.1%, a 17 year low

applications for SNAP are dropping

North Korea is now talking about disarming it's nukes

America no longer needs to import oil and is exporting it

the Islamic State is defeated

the Consumer Confidence Index at Highest Level Since 2000

if we owe federal income tax, the amount owned has dropped

US steel mills are being fire back up after years of being shut down

41 percent decline in illegal southern border crossings

we now have an FDA director who is facilitating generic drug competition

that foreign firms are now building plants and creating jobs in the U.S.

we have a President who is calling for the banning of "bump stocks"



Aren't these things MAGA? Could it be you don't want America great, as you believe America is the source/cause of the world's problems?

It would seem that often times "revisionist history" is written by leftists, not objective history. Unfortunately that also includes you, Mr. Degan. Simple facts have been omitted, forgotten, or gotten wrong over the years. Lets start with the fact that it was Linda Tripp and not "Paula Tripp" that turned over information to Mr. Starr. Paula Jones was the lady that President Clinton sexually harassed and had to pay a settlement to for that harassment. Further, there was clear evidence that Clinton friend Vernon Jordan tried to hide evidence and get another job for Monica Lewinsky to keep her from testifying against Bill. So not only did Bill Clinton perjure himself, he suborned perjury from Monica. It is always the cover up...

As for White Water, and all of the shenanigans going on with Hillary and the Rose Law firm, there was hardly "nothing" there. Ask Mr. Hubbell, who went to jail, if there was nothing illegal there. Ask then-sitting governor Jim Guy Tucker who had to resign after being convicted of fraud in the White water affair. Ask Judge Norma Holloway who disbarred Bill Clinton from practicing law in Arkansas due to his perjury and suborning perjury. Ask Hillary about the subpoenaed and subsequently "missing" Rose Law Firm billing records on White water that mysteriously were found by White House staff years later in the executive residence. Yeah, nothing to see here because their intentions as progressives were good, right? That excuses their lawlessness.

Of course that doesn't excuse lawlessness by other presidents, but like your incomplete or faulty recollection of the Clinton scandals, you seem to be embroidering with things that didn't happen during other Republican presidencies. Take George W. Bush for example. There is plenty to criticize him for legitimately, and one can indeed make a case for why we shouldn't have gone to war in Iraq, but the leftist nonsense that it was based on lies is utter bovine excrement.

Our own intelligence and that of allies like the U.K. all supported the notion that Saddam had weapons of mass destruction and/or was trying to acquire them. Indeed, we shamefully gave such weapons to Iraq and for which not all were accounted. If you will recall, Bush went to congress and got bipartisan approval for using force in Iraq, including from Hillary Clinton. Were all of the left-wing politicians that supported this just a bunch of dupes, or did they believe the intelligence reports from us and our allies?

I love the revisionist narrative we tell ourselves to propagate our own political agendas.

If Trump is truly guilty of colluding with the Russians, then I hope Mueller finds out and that Trump is removed from office. What I suspect though is that the Russians are laughing their asses off at us tearing ourselves apart as a nation on rumor, innuendo, and fabricated dossiers. I wonder what the "tolerant" left will say if Trump is exonerated and then eventually gets re-elected?

Tom, I sincerely hope your prediction is correct -- 2019 at the latest.

I'm currently reading a book written by two Harvard professors, Levitsky and Ziblatt, who have studied and researched failed democracies, turned authoritarian, around the globe. The book is called How Democracies Die.

There are four key indicators of authoritarian rule that have been compiled from their research, and only Trump meets all four in the history of our nation: 1. Rejection of (or weak commitment to) democratic rules of the game; 2.Denial of the legitimacy of political opponents; 3. Toleration or encouragement of violence; and 4. Readiness to curtail civil liberties of opponents, including media.

We're in uncharted waters, as you know, and we have to reach a safe harbor before it's too late. Our nation's future depends upon it.

Resist.

Clucky, deflecting to the irrelevant and then posting something he cut and pasted from a conservative site, giving Trump credit for Obama's work.

But we see you "major", or whatever name you are using today. The subject is the Russian investigation. Try and keep up.

But a couple of them..

"The Islamic state is defeated" REALLY? Last I heard the Muslim faith is going strong.

"if we owe federal income tax, the amount owned has dropped" REALLY? Funny how anyone with an income LESS than $250,000 went up. We made less money than last year by about a grand, and paid $275 MORE in federal taxes. Any savings people do manage to see are going to be deducted from NEXT year's refund. That's how that works. OUR savings are temporary, the MILLIONAIRS is permanent.

Stop getting your info from Trump.

...the leftist nonsense that it was based on lies is utter bovine excrement.

Mr. Paine regurgitates this LIE every time Iraq is mentioned. He is correct that his beloved Reagan Administration aided Saddam in illegal chemical warfare. That would make Saint Ronnie guilty of supporting war crimes.

But, but , but “WHITEWATER!” Amirite? (Mr. Paine along with state media FOX(R) are somehow far less concerned about Trump’s ignorance, dishonesty and corruption than they are about attacking the Clintons.)

Time for facts.

Bush and Cheney LIED about a fictional meeting in Prague between Iraqi officials and al-Qaeda.

Bush and Cheney LIED about Saddam having ties to al-Qaeda. They LIED about Saddam training al-Qaeda.

Bush and Cheney LIED about Saddam having aluminum tubes for an active “nukular” weapons program.

Bush and Cheney LIED about active chemical and biological weapons programs as well. UN inspectors found no such programs. No “huge stockpiles”. Some depleted remnants of old stocks were found and destroyed, but others were even abandoned by US occupation forces. Yes, we went to war over something that the US military left behind.

The fact is Saddam did NOT use them against Bush’s invasion. Period. Then ISIS grew from the disbanded Iraqi army. Mr. Paine wants to blame Obama for ISIS of course.

Tragically and predictably, most Americans bought the lies. Mr. Paine STILL believes all these lies.

NONE of these LIES were supported by UN inspectors, or any intelligence agency, ours or allies. In fact the Brits’ Downing Street Memo declared Bush’s intelligence was “fixed around the policy”

C reported on his recent talks in Washington. There was a perceptible shift in attitude. Military action was now seen as inevitable. Bush wanted to remove Saddam, through military action, justified by the conjunction of terrorism and WMD. But the intelligence and facts were being fixed around the policy. The NSC had no patience with the UN route, and no enthusiasm for publishing material on the Iraqi regime's record. There was little discussion in Washington of the aftermath after military action... It seemed clear that Bush had made up his mind to take military action, even if the timing was not yet decided. But the case was thin.”

Bush later admitted, “Now, look, I didn’t — part of the reason we went into Iraq was — the main reason we went into Iraq at the time was we thought he had weapons of mass destruction. It turns out he didn’t...”

What he didn’t admit was the cherry picking of what they wanted to believe and outright rejection of what they didn’t want to believe. Con-servatism’s MO.

It’s both hilarious and terribly sad how Mr. Paine whines about liberals’ so called “revisionist history”. Talk about projection.

The big Con is part and parcel to con-servatism.

Mr. Mueller will take care of this...and find the treasure on Oak Island?

Interesting. Trump kept saying he was only going to lose because the Democrats would let lots of undocumented aliens vote and steal the election, and in October '16, Obama said

"There is no serious person out there who would suggest somehow that you could even rig America's elections"

back when it was certain St. Hillary was sure to win. By November, Obama knew that, while no Democrat could possibly have rigged the election, or would have wanted to, he hadn't counted on the KGB with tens thousands ( maybe millions?) of agents in the US, many working in the State Department and for the Election Commission and in the Electoral College.

After Trump tweeted Putin passwords to voting machines in 21 states, Putin only changed a very few votes, just enough to give Trump the Electoral College. The fact that Obama said that Trump and Putin colluded to steal the election, without giving a slender shred of evidence, is irrefutable proof of that collusion, since the New York Times assures us that Obama cannot lie, and even told the truth about that cherry tree.

Will Mueller look into reported sightings of Big Foot in DETROIT. MI? Stay tuned to this leftist blog for updates.

Tom,

Alas, I am not so confident that Trump will be — poof! — gone by 2018, or 2020. If things seem to be going badly enough against him, he can simply pardon all the witnesses, thus deincentivizing their willingness to testify against him. If they rat him out anyway, he'll pardon himself. If self-pardoning fails (with our current Supreme Court? Not likely.) he'll distract us, by nuking, say, London. Or Paris. Or North Korea. Or even by pulling yet another bright shiny sex object out of a hat and waving her in front of the press while denying she exists.

I'm afraid our goose — well, actually, all of our geese — are cooked.

Reading the comments from your conservative readers lets us know what we are up against. Those comments directly reflect the conservative attitudes and positions of the national conservative agenda.

America has been marching towards bankruptcy for decades now due to Republican policies and now their new policies and laws are adding trillions more in debt, while the public continues to swallow the no new taxes position. On top of all that the Republicans now want to start a global trade war.

Americas biggest checks are being cut for public programs such as Social Security and health benefits that the public has supported for 80 years by their approval of higher taxes and representation that have supported these programs in Congress. There are very few elected representatives who have voted not to fund these programs over the decades and conservatives have never (including up to today) had the votes to terminate these public programs.

Yet, Republicans continue to call for tax cuts for decades now creating the deep debt we have and showing total irresponsible financial management at the federal level. Trickle down economics has never worked and will certainly not work now as our workforce numbers go down and our retiree numbers go up.

The illogical insanity of the Republican position is certain financial suicide for America. They have even stated publicly that they want to drown the government in a bath tub. That equals an attack on America. That is treason to the people and the government we have. The people have to take blame for continuing to vote for a free lunch, while expecting their benefit checks to keep coming.

There is no debating the illogical, idiot positions of these conservatives. The only solution is to rid the government of the treasonous rebels (conservatives) who have stated publicly they want to destroy our government.

So go ahead and have fun debating your conservative readers, but don't expect that to change our situation, or their brick wall, treasonous minds.

Never mind he wouldn't read the article anyway, amirite?

This was not saying Mueller's investigation into contacts and charges against Trump's lying friends of Putin are not valid. Low information types like MajorMAGAt would reach that false conclusion, of course.

The point being that there is an ongoing contest of geo-political influence between the US and Russia. And that would support, not undermine, the fact of ongoing political machinations from both sides, including election tampering and shady dealings with those who value power and profit over country.

Let's try this one. The whole American thing is bullshit.

The American government does not exist as a democratic representative republic, that is of, by, and for the people.

It is a system of rule bought and paid for by corporate wealth and economic elites.

It is a corporatist oligarchy of, by and for the rich.

Watch as they exert their totalitarian rule by demolishing voter rights. Watch as they exert their totalitarian rule by demolishing unions, and workers' rights to negotiate fair pay, benefits and workplace conditions.

MajorMAGAT and his Party of Trump and Kochs show their ideological sympathies lie with their fellow union haters below:

List of famous labor union haters:

Hitler: Dictator, German NAZI Party
Stalin: Dictator, Soviet Communist Party
Mussolini: Dictator, Italian Fascist Party
Mao: Dictator, Chinese Communist Party
Kim Jong Un: Dictator, North Korean Communist Party
Kim Jong DON: Would-be Fascist Dictator, US Republican Party
The entire Republican Party, including MajorMAGAt, our sniveling servant of the elites.

Anti-union Authoritarian personalities, all of them.

America WAS made great by expanding voter and labor rights, and ending the first Gilded Age of inequality, and with the advent of unions and a middle class. This greatness has been systematically destroyed by the Republican Party and its owners.

This week, Congressional Democrats released a detailed tax hike plan that they promised to implement if given majority control of the House and Senate after the 2018 midterm elections. So much for the crocodile tears about the deficit--Democrats want to raise taxes not to reduce the debt, but rather to spend that tax hike money on boondoggle projects.


Where are the cuts in spending Paul? In fact Paul list times Democrats have cut spending on anything except our military!

Chuck, you made a nice list but most of it is exaggerated or wrong.

The oil companies export oil because they can make more money than selling it domestically but most of the fracking wells are drying up and the fracking industry is about 1 1/2 trillion in the red because it is a very expensive process.

Chuck, ISIS is not defeated and Russia gets the credit for kicking them out of Syria. Since ISIS was working for the last six years to take over Syria and get rid of Assad they had our illicit support.

Israel also supports ISIS as they also want Syria defeated and broken into several parts. We are on a base building spree in Syria with the aim to partition Syria and give the Kurds their own country. This puts us on a collision course with Iran because they do get along with the Kurds and Russia does not want a failed state where ISIS can launch attacks into Russia.

At some point all this destroying countries willy nilly is going to bite us in the ass.

Woodenman,

Are you saying that Obama was giving ISIS illicit support for the past 6 years?
Are you blaming the black guy?

Major Clucky, you went back to the "pencil" line? LOL Gotta love conservatives and their "original thinking".

How about you TRY and stay on subject? Russia, Mueller, Remember?

Oh, sorry, you don't hear about that on Fox Entertainment do you?

ISIS had CONSERVATIVE support.

And stick with one name. You aren't fooling anyone.

Of course, Einstein. When are you (and "the skipper") going to acknowledge that the military-industral-complex (i.e., the "corporate state") controls the shots (pun not intended)?

Stop living in 1954. It's a different world now. Yours, and Skipper's, inability to grasp the undeniable facts is absolutely amazing! Where do you live?...in a hole? [head shaking]
