I don't see how putting Trump and Putin in the same category works ... but whatever floats your boat, makes you happy and sane, have at your fantasy ...

You don't see how the philandering P-Grabber-In-Chief would fit in the same category? Ya ok...

Ah yes the American Justice System - the finest judicial system a multi-billionaire can buy.

You guys can dump the -ski since they aren't talking about Poland. They are talking Russia so it's -sky.

This is the bar the Dems are setting. The next Dem that gets near the whitehouse is going to be so investigated it's going to be crazy. Give them no peace.

Seriously? The BAR was set in the 90s investigating Clinton.

Nice trivia piece there Zed. I would have never guessed.

I know this is happening all the time the last few year and I am beating a dead horse but how can people watch things like this and side with idiots like Chaffetz?

"I feel" sounds like something right wing trash would just absolutely fry anyone left of them for saying when discussing a factual situation. Yet time and again things like this translate to "fact" when it is them talking. If this isn't clear attempts at manipulating the narrative I don't know what is. You want to discuss SLANT? How about making things up over and over?

She won't appeal on the National Stage - yet. In 20 years someone like her will definitely appeal and there are a lot of reasons why. Bernie has appeal but he doesn't have enough to win the presidency IMHO. Today he is too easy to attack as Socialism is a dirty word to too many uneducated voters.

Ok, what you babbled about is kind of funny actually. I don't think she is using partisan politics for hate at all - want to see the expert on that then just look to the white house. She is exposing systems that are completely biased against the vast majority of people of this country rather than just coddling them like so many. As already pointed out with the wave of tea partiers who were going to "tear it down" - why didn't any of them complain about this same stuff? Well mainly because they were fake and just seeking to profit but that's another story. I am curious what liberal institutions you are talking about though.

And Barack let the banks get away with crashing the economy without a slap on the wrist.
Is that the kind of learning curve she needs?

Frankly speaking, it wasn't up to Barack to give the banking industry a swift kick it was up to congress. And what started out as a swift kick to the cohones resulted in weak watered down legislation once it made it out of congress. And even that legislation (which greatly favors big banks over small to mid-sized btw) is something the GOP is working on doing away with.

Non-crime? Sort of. There's also mention of the meetings with Russians and Trumps with Cohen. You know the "political synergy" bit...

I'm sure he'll get a new job in the employ of some fine neo-nazi. I mean there's pretty much no way he will keep his current position as I am sure he is breaking all sorts policies of his employer and possibly laws...

How unfortunate for those on SNAP today not to mention Florida and the rest of the country.

I don't see any of them refuting it either...

You mean pre-WWII and during the great depression? No kidding. The top tax bracket jumped to 90% during WWII

This is why Grassley (Iowa) wants to limit Trump's powers on Tariffs. Funny really.

I have an account but I never do anything unless I have to. I never use the Facebook or Google Login option either. That's just 100% stupid.

What does that have to do with paying interns? She is 100% correct on that. Interns and Staffers should be making a living wage because it excludes far too many people from government otherwise. In other words it just opens doors for the rich.

Completely and deliberately misquoted and out of context. Grow up kid.

Wow - that's some serious BS happening in NC. Shouldn't be surprised though the way they passed laws to strip the Governors power once they lost. Oh wait isn't Wisconsin and Michigan doing that right now? Why yes they are... Seriously GOP motto "If you can't win, just cheat."

Security is only as good as the weakest link. That is people 99% of the time. If I had to guess - weak passwords and no 2-factor authentication. GOP is better at Security - ya right.

IKR Crowd Strike... Where are all the Righties who demonized and doubted them over Democratic hacks? As I said then - they have an impeccable reputation in IT security. I recall some people foo-fooing that then. Are they here today? I mean years later and the GOP uses them in a similar case? It's funny those emails haven't seen the light of day. Wonder if the FBI has their hands on the "server"... LMAO...

Its odd really, Liberals can't seem too wrap their mind around the fact that OpenBorders lowers wages, their response is to FORCE companies to pay more, the result ... not what they expected. I find Healthcare suffering the same phenom; Liberals trying to "engineer" society and economies to be "perfect" ends up a disaster, everytime.

What does open boarders have to do with this? Conservatives are the core reason for the issues with undocumented workers. They replaced people making a living wage with the undocumented they can hire for peanuts starting back in the 80s. That simply encouraged the influx and drove wages lower. That's why they don't want a solution on immigration - Because if people are documented they will expect more because they don't have to live in fear.

Healthcare is suffering from the phenom of Big Pharma and Insurance Lobbyists getting what they want and racking the people over the coals. If the GOP concentrated on fixing the ACA (GOP legislation by the way) instead of wrecking it we would be better off. Yet somehow it's better to fool the ignorant followers than do that. Single payer healthcare isn't not nearly so bad if you just look a little north to Canada. And why yes "engineering" things tends to provide improved results vs "using your guy". Lobbyists and big business have been doing their own engineering of society for decades. I don't think anyone hopes for the economy to be perfect, more equitable would be nice. We as a nation saw some of our best growth and equity when the top tax rate was over 70%.

Empty prattling.
