I have been authorised by the Department of Justice to confirm that the FBI, as part of our counterintelligence mission, is investigating the Russian government's efforts to interfere in the 2016 presidential election, and that includes investigating the nature of any links between individuals associated with the Trump campaign, and the Russian government, and whether there was any coordination between the campaign and Russia's efforts

That, and the the FBI had no information that the Obama administration wiretapped the Orange One.

First Obama wiretapped Trump Tower.  Then the British.  Who next, Martians?

Spin Zone / The Cheeto Jesus' first fatality
« on: February 10, 2017, 01:12:10 PM »
So the Orange Manatee has a fatality from his first authorized mission, which sounds like a disaster according to everyone except, well, the Cheeto Jesus himself.  Not a peep for all those who couldn't stop screaming at the top of their lungs, metaphorical or otherwise, "Bhenghazi!".  I guess I highly trained member of a SEAL team just isn't as valuable as a US Ambassador in the view of the Trumpkins.  Or perhaps that is the the Man boy can do no wrong.

Spin Zone / Executive orders
« on: February 09, 2017, 03:09:15 PM »
Obama made the fewest Executive Orders of any President since Cleveland, according to the Pew Research Center (http://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2017/01/23/obama-executive-orders/) yet he was derided for his use of the mechanism as being unconstitutional.  Cheeto von Fuckface has come out the bat using them left and right, but the Trumpkins all applaud.

Spin Zone / Repealing Obamacare
« on: February 06, 2017, 08:34:39 AM »
The GOP did it six times during the Obama administration.  They control both Houses of Congress and the Executive, yet the law still stands, and according to the Cheeto Jesus is likely to do so for a couple years.

Spin Zone / Trump would abandon NATO allies to Russian attack
« on: July 21, 2016, 10:49:19 AM »
In an interview with the New York Times (http://www.nytimes.com/2016/07/21/us/politics/donald-trump-issues.html Donald Trump claimed defense of NAO allies would be conditional:

Quote
Asked about Russia’s threatening activities, which have unnerved the small Baltic States that are among the more recent entrants into NATO, Mr. Trump said that if Russia attacked them, he would decide whether to come to their aid only after reviewing if those nations have “fulfilled their obligations to us.”

Spin Zone / GOP senator stopped 7 times in one year
« on: July 14, 2016, 01:46:33 PM »
GOP Senator stopped 7 times in one year.  Driving while black.  Link:http://www.npr.org/2016/07/14/485995136/watch-black-gop-senator-says-hes-been-stopped-7-times-by-police-in-a-year

No such thing as racism in America.  Nope.  Of course, its from NPR and brought to you by a useless academic, so it must not mean a damn thing.

Spin Zone / Democracy in action
« on: July 14, 2016, 01:43:21 PM »
My little one-horse town is holding a special election!  Set up in late May, the election is set to take place during the first week of August.  The Republican backers of the initiative want to change the city council of the Steinholme Metropolis from 7 at-large members to a ward system, with something on the order of 25 members.  Looking forward to voting this trash DOWN.

Spin Zone / Brent Scowcroft endorses Hillary
« on: June 24, 2016, 11:59:16 AM »
Yup, the National Security advisor to Bush the Elder and Ford, has endorsed the Hildebeast, along with Richard Armitage, who those of you with short memories will have forgotten worked in the administrations of Bush the Younger and Reagan.  Said Scowcroft: "She brings deep expertise in international affairs and a sophisticated understanding of the world, which I believe are essential for the commander-in-chief."

Story on CNN.

The judge called him a serial child molester.  Delay called him "a good man that loves the Lord".

Spin Zone / Ohio votes to legalize weed today
« on: November 03, 2015, 02:41:57 PM »
A really funny election.  There is an issue basically starting a monopoly for the cultivation of marijuana.  10 sites to be run by a cabal of investors.  You can have one ounce or pay a license to grow the stuff (four plants) and can have 8 ounces from your cultivation.

At the same time there's another issue that bans monopolies form the state constitution.  Fun election.

I hope the legal ganja passes, I really do. I'd like to see another nail in the growing coffin for the War on Drugs.  I suspect it'll take awhile for the Feds to catch up to it though.
