Cohen says that Trump knew about Trump Tower meeting with Russians to get dirt on Hillary, and is willing to provide this information to special prosecutors.

Just one of many today:
The only explanation for today’s appalling performance by @realDonaldTrump is the Russians have high value compromising intel on POTUS. Something that would have been discovered during any serviceman’s background investigation. @realDonaldTrump is unfit to command our troops.

C'mon SLC...you know people aren't swayed by actual arrests or indictments on this board. Nor are they concerned about Russia influencing our politics.
It goes like this:
I'm having shortness of breath, my jaw hurts and so does my left arm...I can't, catch...my breath. I think I'm having a heart attack.
Oh yea? I see no proof of a heart attack. Show me some proof! We have zero evidence. Obama, Obama, Obama....

Speaking of vacuum, can you link one person on Trump’s team that’s been indicted for anything related to Russian interference/hacking in the election. Just one.
You're completely oblivious.
Did you even read the latest indictments? Do you have any idea of what's unfolding right now? It's massive.
Among MANY bombshells, it specifically said that the Russian government was communicating with somebody who was in "direct contact with Senior members of the Trump campaign." What do you think is going to happen next genius? Mueller has laid the ground work for the next batch of indictments, which will be Trump officials in a conspiracy with Russia.
We're going to see obstruction charges, probably a variety of financial crimes an conspiracy with a foreign government against the United States.
Trump knew all of this was about to be released and still planned on meeting Putin anyway. Once he was abroad he attacked our allies again at NATO, our law enforcement agencies, our journalists and stood beside the man who orchestrated a massive cyber attack against our country and defended him.
This is beyond the pale. I've never seen anything like this in my life. He's a total fucking traitor. Today sealed the deal. The Republicans are complicit and so is every little sycophant and partisan hack in this country asking for "proof."

What Trump did today with Putin is unbelievable. Literally stood by an defended Putin for attacking our country while attacking the FBI and the Democrats.

On today’s chopping block:
Peter Strauk should be fired
Jeff Sessions should be firedAlso I don’t like what is going on at the border, but, MSNBC calling the centers holding the kids “concentration camps” is so fvcking offensive to Jews who were held in concentration where most were killed. That word is too fvcking powerful to just throw around Willy nilly just based off historical context.
Look, the Nazi thing gets thrown around by both sides too often, but in this case it applies. Taking children, some as young as 4 months old away from their mothers and sending them god knows where, is evil. It's what Nazis did. Telling parents that their child was taken to the showers, and then realizing they aren't bringing them back...Nazis did the same thing.
The detachment is appalling here. Even if you don't have children, how can anybody think terrorizing and traumatizing children is necessary when a family seeks asylum?
Watch Sanders on this, what a disgrace:

Trump's former campaign manager, Paul Manafort, had his bail revoked today and he's headed to jail. That should be a huge news story, but as usual there is so much chaos going on, it's just one story of many.
The clock is ticking on Cochen's indictment...
The state of New York also filed a 41 page lawsuit against the Trump Foundation. It is alleged that they took money into this "charity", often given by the public for veterans, and funneled it to his campaign. Which of course is illegal.
Then of course hell froze over:
So the #IGREPORT proves what?

1. The FBI was right to decide not to charge Hillary with a crime.
2. That decision wasn't motivated by political bias or improper considerations.
3. James Comey made mistakes.
4. Those mistakes helped Trump win.
Sounds like Hillary got screwed.

I’d take Axl and Bucket. The rest can fuck off. Axl was like a different person altogether. Weird how a few years can make such a drastic difference.
I'm seeing Bucket tomorrow at Hard Rock.
