SO...., Paul Manafort and his legal team are so incompetent that they accidentally handed the smoking gun that proves that the Trump campaign colluded with the Russians during our 2016 presidential election to try to prove their innocence?? [who is on his legal team?? Rudy Giuliani??] well,maybe they will be able to take some classes in prison so that they can learn how to properly use Microsoft Word? |

Manafort Accused of Sharing Trump Polling Data With Russian Associate WASHINGTON — As a top official in President Trump’s campaign, Paul Manafort shared political polling data with a business associate tied to Russian intelligence, according to a court filing unsealed on Tuesday. The document provided the clearest evidence to date that the Trump campaign may have tried to coordinate with Russians during the 2016 presidential race. Mr. Manafort’s lawyers made the disclosure by accident, through a formatting error in a document filed to respond to charges that he had lied to prosecutors working for the special counsel, Robert S. Mueller III, after agreeing to cooperate with their investigation into Russian interference in the election. The document also revealed that during the campaign, Mr. Manafort and his Russian associate, Konstantin V. Kilimnik,who has ties to Russian intelligence, discussed plans for the situation in Ukraine. Throughout the campaign and the early days of the Trump administration, Russia and its allies were pushing various plans for Ukraine in the hope of gaining relief from American-led sanctions imposed after it annexed Crimea from Ukraine. Prosecutors and the news media have already documented a string of encounters between Russian operatives and Trump campaign associates dating from the early months of Mr. Trump’s bid for the presidency, including the now-famous meeting at Trump Tower in Manhattan with a Russian lawyer promising damaging information on Hillary Clinton. The accidental disclosure appeared to some experts to be perhaps most damning of all. |

not necessarily,but when the republicans are so UTTERLY DESPERATE to try to discredit their opponents that they dig up 'dirt' from her past and try to use it to embarrass her as a political strategy,but they are SO INCOMPETENT that all they can do is post videos that show her dancing and being cute,and adorable,i think THAT says A LOT about them,PLUS,it ALSO says A LOT about HER,if that is the best that they can come up with on her to try to discredit,or embarrass her!! sorry to disappoint you,but the difference between kavnaugh,and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is that when they dug into kavanaugh's past,THEY FOUND SOMETHING in his past! [several somethings,actually!!] in Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's past,all hey could come up with was the video of her dancing!! so,your comparison is basically the equivalent of trying to compare mother Teresa with Adolph hitler. [or,should I say,mother Teresa with donald trump?] so,once again... would you rather have a politician who is so morally,and ethically above reproach that a video of her dancing when she was in college is the most embarrassing thing that they can find on her,or somebody whose whole life has been nothing but an ethical,and moral train wreck? it is REALLY a VERY simple question,with a VERY simple answer! |

And we need politicians who can dance... right Dave? **** the country... if you can tap dance... your in.? not necessarily,but when the republicans are so UTTERLY DESPERATE to try to discredit their opponents that they dig up 'dirt' from her past and try to use it to embarrass her as a political strategy,but they are SO INCOMPETENT that all they can do is post videos that show her dancing and being cute,and adorable,i think THAT says A LOT about them,PLUS,it ALSO says A LOT about HER,if that is the best that they can come up with on her to try to discredit,or embarrass her!! [trump would KILL AND EAT HIS OWN CHILDREN to be THAT free from embarrassments from his past!!!!] so,the question is.....would you rather have a politician who is so morally,and ethically above reproach that a video of her dancing when she was in college is the most embarrassing thing that they can find on her,or somebody whose whole life has been nothing but an ethical,and moral train wreck? BUT,when you find the evidence that she is a sexual predator,has paid hush money to porn stars she slept with,cheated everybody she has ever been in business with,or been in a relationship with,discriminated against people of color,and has been sued so many times that she needs a whole staff of crooked lawyers to keep track of them,let me know,cuz THOSE are the things that should really matter! |

Her priorities were no secret during her campaign. She was elected by voters in her district. Seems indicative of her constituents being in agreement with her agenda. Passionately working towards stated goals that those she represents voted in favor of by electing her should be commended. It's the level of performance that should be delivered by all elected officials, in my opinion. PLUS,as the video of her that her opponents dug up,and posted online to 'TRY' to embarrass her shows,she is also cute as a button,and is an EXCELLENT dancer!! |

after a lengthy investigation by the new york district attorney's office,the 'charitable' trump foundation was forced to shut down by the courts after 'a pattern of shocking illegality' was discovered,including unlawful coordination with the Trump presidential campaign. trump's 'charitable' foudation was nothing more than a tax shelter,and piggy bank for the trump family to illegally siphon money out of for their own personal uses,including illegally funding part of donald trump's personal campaign expenses,legal expenses,and court judgements against donald trump and his private businesses,and lavish purchases such as a football helmet autographed by tim tebow,and a 6 foot tall portrait of himself that currenetly hangs in one of his golf resorts,all the way down to the $7 dollars that was paid to the boy scouts of america for don jr's membership fee when he was 11 years old,and claimed by the charity as a charitable donation. the now 'out-of-business' charitable organization's assets will be accounted for,and overseen by the state of new york ,to be distribted by them to reputable charitable organizations,and the state of new york's attorney general is filing a suit against donald trump,and his three eldest children,asking for almost 3 million dollars in restitution. the trumps wil also be banned from being on the board of any other charitable orgaqnizations. |

trump supporters can stick their heads in the sand to try to pretend that their posterboy isn't as big of a joke as he actually is,but the fact that the other leaders of the world PUBLICALLY LAUGHED AT HIM is irrefutable evidence of what the rest of the world REALLY thinks about Donald trump.

UNITED NATIONS — President Trump has long argued that the United States has been taken advantage of by other nations — a “laughing stock to the entire World,” he said on Twitter in 2014 — and his political rise was based on the premise that he had the strength and resolve to change that. But at the U.N. General Assembly on Tuesday, Trump got a comeuppance on the world’s biggest stage. Delivering a speech that aimed to establish U.S. “sovereignty” over the whims and needs of other nations, the president’s triumphant moment was marred in the first minute when he was met by laughter — at his expense. The embarrassing exchange came when Trump boasted that his administration had accomplished more over two years than “almost any administration” in American history, eliciting audible guffaws in the cavernous chamber hall. The president appeared startled. “Didn’t expect that reaction,” he said. He has always been obsessed that people are laughing at the president. From the mid-’80s, he’s said: ‘The world is laughing at us. They think we’re fools,’ ” said Thomas Wright, a Europe analyst at the Brookings Institution. “It’s never been true, but he’s said it about every president. It’s the first time I’m aware of that people actually laughed at a president. I think it is going to drive him absolutely crazy. It will play to every insecurity he has.” For Trump, the moment wasn’t just embarrassing. It also punctured one of the core fabulist assertions of a president who has, according to Washington Post fact-checkers, made more than 5,000 false or misleading statements since taking office. As the midterm elections approach, Trump has begun boasting of a long list of accomplishments for his administration, at one point reciting them at a recent campaign rally from two pieces of paper that he pulled from his suit jacket. In doing so, the president typically has claimed sweeping success and placed himself favorably in historical comparison to the nation’s greatest leaders. At a rally in Springfield, Mo., last week, Trump was wrapping up an hour-long address to supporters with some flowery teleprompter prose about the courage of America’s founders when he strayed from the script to assert that his election in 2016 was “the greatest movement in the history of our country.” At the United Nations, Trump’s claim to have done more in less than two years than most of the 44 previous administrations defied any bounds of reality — or hubris. The difference was that he was not talking to a room full of excited, red-hat-wearing “MAGA” supporters who cheer him on. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ well,trump HAS said that the rest if the world is laughing at us!! and,NOW,we all know WHY,dont we??? [its because we elected Donald trump!!] |

Isn't tape recording private conversation and meeting in the white house like Omarosa did unethical? I mean. This is where foreign policy and country security is discussed and you have a person secretly tape recording it? Doesn't that speak volumns for the character and ethics of this person No? Go to work and secretly tape record your boss then publish the tape and see what happens SO..... out of ALL of the ILLEGAL,and EXTREMELY UNETHICAL stuff that trump has done in the white house,and THAT is what you are complaining about?? I think THAT speaks volumes about SOMEBODY'S character,doesnt it?? |

LMAO! trump TRIED to lie to the United Nations assembly,saying that he was the best president ever,and had gotten more accomplished than any other president in the history of presidents,and all of the OTHER world leaders laughed in his face,when he made that claim!! [it seems like THEY aren't as gullible as trump supporters that he was used to giving speeches like that to!!!] BUT,now that ought to show everybody what the rest of the world REALLY thinks about Donald trump,and his skills as a U.S. president/world leader! |

https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2018/09/21/paypal-bans-alex-jones-saying-infowars-promoted-hate-or-discriminatory-intolerance/?noredirect=on&utm_term=.1bfa78bf3349
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ it see like PAYPAL also decided to exercise THEIR right to freedom of speech by telling alex jones/infowars that they no longer wanted to do business with him/his show because he/his program "was responsible for promoting hate against minorities,and discriminatory intolerance against certain communities and religions, which run counter to our core value of inclusion.”! PayPal’s decision Friday makes it the latest tech company to ban Jones and his content from its platform, following in the footsteps of Apple, Facebook,Twitter and Google, among others. this is sure to hit alex jones/infowars in the place where it will hurt them the most... in their wallets! Research by Columbia University’s Tow Center for Digital Journalism has found that Jones has been successful at turning his hate filled,and discriminantory rants and headlines into e-commerce revenue,but his revenue could completely dry up without an online payment processor! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ but,all y'all infowars fans,dont lose hope... his show might be being shunned now by most of the civilized world because of its hate filled rants,and discriminatory messages,but maybe alex jones can start selling his PLASMA,or something to continue funding his show?? |

Are you in a cult?

Cults can exist in personal residences, but also in workplaces and in politics ... are you in a cult? (I suspect people actually in cults would not recognize it, but just for humor sake) Ten warning signs of a potentially unsafe group/leader 1. Absolute authoritarianism without meaningful accountability. 2. No tolerance for questions or critical inquiry. 3. No meaningful financial disclosure regarding budget, expenses such as an independently audited financial statement. 4. Unreasonable fear about the outside world, such as impending catastrophe, evil conspiracies and persecutions. 5. There is no legitimate reason to leave, former followers are always wrong in leaving, negative or even evil. 6. Former members often relate the same stories of abuse and reflect a similar pattern of grievances. 7. There are records, books, news articles, or television programs that document the abuses of the group/leader. 8. Followers feel they can never be "good enough". 9. The group/leader is always right. 10. The group/leader is the exclusive means of knowing "truth" or receiving validation, no other process of discovery is really acceptable or credible. signs of a safe group leader 1. A safe group/leader will answer your questions without becoming judgmental and punitive. 2. A safe group/leader will disclose information such as finances and often offer an independently audited financial statement regarding budget and expenses. Safe groups and leaders will tell you more than you want to know. 3.A safe group/leader is often democratic, sharing decision making and encouraging accountability and oversight. 4.A safe group/leader may have disgruntled former followers, but will not vilify, excommunicate and forbid others from associating with them. 5. A safe group/leader will not have a paper trail of overwhelmingly negative records, books, articles and statements about them. 6. A safe group/leader will encourage family communication, community interaction and existing friendships and not feel threatened. 7. A safe group/leader will recognize reasonable boundaries and limitations when dealing with others. 8. A safe group/leader will encourage critical thinking, individual autonomy and feelings of self-esteem. 9.A safe group/leader will admit failings and mistakes and accept constructive criticism and advice. 10.A safe group/leader will not be the only source of knowledge and learning excluding everyone else, but value dialogue and the free exchange of ideas. from http://www.culteducation.com/warningsigns.html hhhmmm..... does anybody else notice the strong resemblance between a 'cult',and 'the trump administration/his supporters'? |

How to replace fuses in the car... I hope it is only fuses and not actual lights in the dash... *Ugh* if it is the fuse for the lights in your dash,then you don't have any tail lights/parking lights,either,because they are all on the same circuit,so all you have to do is see if your tail lights work to figure it out. |
