“I knew it. I knew this would happen to me,” [Hillary Clinton] said, now within a couple of inches of Mr. Mook’s ashen face. “They were never going to let me be president.”

I know this is going to make me sound like a lunatic, but I don't want Trump to be judged by his long history of illegal actions, known or unknown to the public. There was enough of that during the election to disqualify any man. I want him to be judged for his actions in the present, as president, and whether those are illegal or not, ethical or not, presidential or not.

Okay, James Comey. ::)

Morning Joe calls it: It’s becoming clear that Trump won’t run in 2020
Quote
But while the president and his team of misfit lawyers have reason to tread carefully under stormy legal skies, Republicans on Capitol Hill can relax. It’s becoming clear that Trump will not be running for president in 2020.

...

Which brings us to Nikki Haley, the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations. The former South Carolina governor announced last Sunday that the United States would impose additional sanctions against Russia and President Vladimir Putin. Haley’s declaration enraged Trump, despite the inconvenient fact she was only following White House policy and GOP talking points. Still, the president went behind his ambassador’s back to assure the Russians he would kill any future sanctions. Other White House officials played down Haley’s remarks, describing America’s representative at the United Nations as “confused.”

Haley’s response to the charge was as sharp as it was telling.

“With all due respect, I do not get confused.”

With those nine words, the ambassador declared that, unlike most other members of Trump’s Cabinet, she would not allow herself to be humiliated by a political day trader, whose fitful 15 minutes of fame will come to a close long before a new president takes the oath of office in 2021.

Still, another scenario came to mind this week: How wonderful would it be for our daughters to see this woman — this daughter of immigrants — take a debate stage to coldly cut the Donald down to size, revealing to the world once and for all that this bloated emperor has no clothes?

What a sight that would be.

Now before you start cracking jokes like you write for The Onion or Vox, consider this supporting evidence:

My piece in next week’s print issue: Reluctant Trump supporters and lukewarm Trump approvers may balk at four more years for Trump. The key date: Nov. 7, 2018, when the issue becomes a prospective choice, not a retrospective justification.

According to the Saudi police a toy drone came close to the palace and they shot it down.

Wikileaks, along with Julian Assange, are listed as defendents in the DNC's lawsuit, so there's no issue with them counter suing the DNC.

One-dimensional chess seems like it would be pretty frustrating, all the pieces except (maybe) knights would have no way to get out from behind the line of pawns and the pawns wouldn't even be able to capture. I guess you'd have to maybe start by spending a lot of time getting your pawns into a staggered formation so the knights could hop through the gaps.

Sean Hannity apparently owns a ton of real estate:

Hannity’s chosen investment strategy is confirmed by thousands of pages of public records reviewed by the Guardian, which detail a real estate portfolio of remarkable scale that has not previously been reported.

The records link Hannity to a group of shell companies that spent at least $90m on more than 870 homes in seven states over the past decade. The properties range from luxurious mansions to rentals for low-income families. Hannity is the hidden owner behind some of the shell companies and his attorney did not dispute that he owns all of them.

Dozens of the properties were bought at a discount in 2013, after banks foreclosed on their previous owners for defaulting on mortgages. Before and after then, Hannity sharply criticised Barack Obama for the US foreclosure rate. In January 2016, Hannity said there were “millions more Americans suffering under this president” partly because of foreclosures.

Hannity, 56, also amassed part of his property collection with support from the US Department for Housing and Urban Development (Hud), a fact he did not disclose when praising Ben Carson, the Hud secretary, on his television show last year.

That was about as non-aggressive as possible.

One of the worst things about milo is how he keeps talking about his black husband and his status as a fekkit as a defense of his racism. It’s so incredibly transparent.

I will say I’ve never seen his husband nor him kissing a dude.

Also, notice the way he phrased “supported trump in 2016” is he signaling that he no longer support him? If so, LOL.
