I know, I know. Next time maybe. Also really interested to know how the GOP tax bill fucks any of you or your friends. Where was this concern with the ACA and all the middle class people who had their premiums spiked so 2-3 people out of every million can get their dicks cut off.
But I guess they had to pass it to know what’s in it. Can we at least all agree it was a bipartisan bill since a democrat sat in a single meeting once? I just want consistency in logical reasoning.
Another throw away comment by RF designed solely to ruffle some feathers. Lacking any substance whatsoever.
Did anyone here comment on or give a shit about Flynn’s impact on the stick market?
Totally irrelevant.
The comment was a response to a bunch of people creaming their pants at something that didn’t happen. Flynn is testifying that Trump (or Kushner - I’ve seen conflicting articles) told him to reach out to Russia after the election to start a joint plan on ISIS. No more, no less. Not treason, not illegal.
But those who want to, ignore what was said and fill in the blanks with their own hopes/dreams/wishes.
It’s funny watching some of you fall for it and demonstrate a total lack of reading skills.
You’re right though, there’s not much to discuss. You’re pretending that the tax plan fucks the middle class, which every outlet that isn’t a Vox says is bullshit. The middle class will pay less in taxes unless you have a million itemized deductions, which the GOP is clearly saying they’re trying to move away from. I agree with this. If you’re saving every receipt to mitigate your taxes, I don’t think you really believe in paying your “fair share”. If you really cared about the middle class, you wouldn’t have blind devotion to the ACA. But fuck those families in every day that ends in Y, right?
Nothing is happening to Trump. This isn’t “big news”. It’s sonething we’ve known for a year when the far left wackos were crying “Logan act” last December. It’s a joke, and 12 months from now, the same group will be posting “huge news” while Trump is still in office.
I’m free to post nonsense and laugh when you and others scream the sky is falling and obviously haven’t read anything more than a headline.
Hope your weekend is going swell.
Edit: and here’s Panetta saying “it’s a stretch to say anything illegal happened” https://ntknetwork.com/leon-panetta-its … -contacts/
But I doubt this particular person is of any value to those who want to believe.
I’m free to post every time you show your biases as well.
I will tip my cap to you though...as you’ve plain as day stated that you pay 40 percent income tax in this thread so many weeks ago. You must truly believe in paying your share so much so that you’re willing to pay yours and a bit of someone elses.
True altruism i must say. For someone who truly cares about paying for others you might think RF would be in favor of the ACA.
I’d also like to point out that RF is the only person in this country who writes a check to the government for 40 percent of his income. RF willingly pays European levels of taxation by choice. Maybe he’s a socialist at heart.
So maybe he’s right...maybe RF does deserve a tax cut.
Re: US Politics Thread
Look at this dummy today...his lawyers must be banging their heads on their desks.
I had to fire General Flynn because he lied to the Vice President and the FBI. He has pled guilty to those lies. It is a shame because his actions during the transition were lawful. There was nothing to hide!

SLC...this will go over his head because he’s just not following that closely

That’s what you’re missing, the crime he’s pleading to is lying. Not colluding with Russia to interfere with the election on Trump’s orders, which is what you thought and are hoping it said. He had a legal conversation with Russia about ISIS.
If you want to chase the Logan Act, go for it. But it’s obvious Mueller isn’t. Which you’d know if you read the plea.
You were duped again. Just admit that Trump is a fucking moron whom you hate, but he won the election fairly and without coordinating with Russia. It’ll make your life so much easier, and you can actually post about policies and legislation you dislike, rather than pop in here every few weeks to spread Russian style disinformation. You running with this conspiracy shit is what they want.
I think the point you're missing is that the cover up is worse than the crime. Flynn lied, and Trump's meetings and pressure on Comey, eventually firing him because of the investigation, is still pretty serious, IMO. Will it lead to anything? I don't know. I know my opinion is that he should be removed from office because he's unfit to lead, nothing to really do with collusion with Russia.
In my most deepest desire is that enough is found for Hillary to challenge the election.
Wouldn’t matter. The states validated their EVs. Unless you have proof that not only the real vote tallies in states were compromised, but get SCOTUS to rule that this invalidates the Electoral College results, nothing changes. Since no one has made the first claim, let alone provide any evidence, Hillary becoming President is as realistic as Cleveland winning the super bowl.
Win the mid terms and don’t run Kamilla Harris in 2020 if you want anyone but Trump in the White House.
That's why it was a desire...
And yeah, the latter is what I think will happen.

Except about 40% of my paycheck does go to taxes and my health insurance. I don’t care if you believe me or not. But tell me another story about you and your brother walking through the woods and why everyone else should pay more so he can have healthcare. A real brother would hook him up through your successful business, but I guess I am the only altruistic one. You’re willing to fuck over middle America to avoid giving your brother a job.
Re: US Politics Thread
My new thought is I think that Popadopolous was talking to Kushner a bit during the spring/summer, prior to his coming out as working with Mueller, and was likely wearing a wire. Could've been in touch saying "He's nervous" and "What will we do" to get Kushner to respond. They're both younger & could've had a bit in common being the young guys on the team.
Kushners been in hiding for a while now, and I recall it timing up with the Popadopolous news from a few weeks back.

You do realize this is a Presidential campaign working with a foreign government who hacked into their email database and worked with them to release those emails to the public to damage their political opponent.
Sure, what you posted may be what Flynn is pleading guilty to, but Muellers investigation & Flynns testimony will be about the DNC hacks.

lol, hey Flagg, it's called a 'Graduated Income Tax" and has been in place since Taft. Might wanna check with an accountant on that one.

Yes, I’m aware Hillary payed a foreign intelligence agent to work with Russian intelligence. Do you care about that or are you content to make up stories about Trump. That’s what I find so laughable. You know Clinton violated several laws handling classified information and related to the Logan act. But none of that concerns you. You’d rather make up crimes of Trump. It’s a joke.
