my guess on the mar a crapo case....trump gets hit hard with a major obstruction charge but only some minor 'stolen classified documents' charges. there are just too many people who get away with a slap for having classified stuff at home for trump to get the book thrown at him for that.
But obstruction seems to be open and shut, and he's been obstructing heavily.
If he showed people the classified documents then he might get hit with espionage act violations.
Dems delivering for their natural constituency: blue collar workers. Who in turn vote wil for Republicans b/c culture war trumps economics. Oh America. Manufacturing construction spending at all time high, spiking up.
(but this poster is wrong to say there is a white collar recession - there isn't)
It is a Bifurcated Economy. White Collar entering a recession. Blue Collar absolutely booming. Tech bros preach doom and gloom and are the loudest on this platform. But, anyone working in a trade is more busy now than they’ve ever been.
It's no cosmical coincidence that Rever. Pat Robertson was summoned to his heavenly trinity on the same day that Donald John Trump is busted. Both men have been tireless warriors for J. Christ, bringing a lifetime of Salvation and the Amero-Christian way of life to the spiritually parched masses. Both men are Leviathans in the Christian fight against secularists who seek to lay torch to everything decent, tax-paying, J. Christ-fearing Americans have amassed.
Campaign launch - these are fighting words. No fan, but on this one occasion he did and said the right thing.
Pence: "On that fateful day President Trump's words were reckless. He endangered my family and everyone at the Capitol. The American people deserve to know that on that day President Trump also demanded that I choose between him and the Constitution. Now voters will be faced with the same choice. I chose the Constitution and I always will."
Republicans can't govern. They can only function as an opposition party. Usually Republicans oppose Dems, but when they actually control the House, like now, they will oppose themselves. It's all about the pleasure of opposition, not the satisfaction of getting things done.
M'aga is killing McCarthy right now.
Hard-right Republicans pressed their mutiny against Speaker Kevin McCarthy into a second day on Wednesday, keeping control of the House floor in a raw display of their power that raised questions about whether the speaker could continue to govern his slim and fractious majority. Mr. McCarthy, who enraged ultraconservative Republicans by striking a compromise with President Biden to suspend the debt limit, has yet to face a bid to depose him, as some hard-right members have threatened. But the rebellion has left him, at least for now, as speaker in name only, deprived of a governing majority. “House Leadership couldn’t Hold the Line,” Representative Matt Gaetz, Republican of Florida and a leader of the rebellion, tweeted on Wednesday. “Now we Hold the Floor.”

Oh. A deep red state was found to use unconstitutional racial gerrymanders to disfavor African Americans. Can you hardly believe it? What's next - giving money to pay for the defense fund of a right-wing criminal and coup plotter?
The Supreme Court, in a surprise decision, ruled that Alabama had diluted the power of Black voters by drawing a congressional voting map with a single district in which they made up a majority. Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. wrote the majority opinion in the 5-to-4 ruling. He was joined by Justice Brett M. Kavanaugh and the court’s three liberal members, Justices Sonia Sotomayor, Elena Kagan and Ketanji Brown Jackson. Voting rights advocates had feared the decision would undermine the Voting Rights Act, which instead appeared to emerge unscathed. The chief justice wrote that there were legitimate concerns that the Alabama law “may impermissibly elevate race in the allocation of political power within the states.” He added: “Our opinion today does not diminish or disregard these concerns. It simply holds that a faithful application of our precedents and a fair reading of the record before us do not bear them out here.” The case was part of a pitched battle over redistricting playing out across the country. Civil rights leaders say the redistricting process often disadvantages growing minority communities. Republican state officials say the Constitution allows only a limited role for the consideration of race in drawing voting districts.

Roberts and Kavanaugh are morons.
African-Americans vote 95% Democrat. The gerrymandering has nothing to do with skin color and everything to do with politics. Just like every other gerrymandered district in the country.

Fascinating that everyone who disagrees with you is a "moron"

"Trump proudly does and says what he damn well pleases. I LOVE that about him!"
Hmm, it looks like he did and said what he damn well pleased and ran afoul of the law or policy or regulations.
"No, NEVER! Not Trump!"
You guys see yourselves as "strong patriots." You don't see how you really look like weak, dumb Trump patsies. It is interesting, if nothing else.
Not being blindly partisan morons with rampant TDS we're just not dumb enough to pretend that Biden stealing documents and leaving them with a crack addict isn't worse than Trump stealing documents and leaving them in a secure compound guarded by secret service.
Tell us more about patriotism Mr. Stolen Valor.
Another day, and the guy who spends all of his time on this site can't do a simple search to prove his point. 100% transparent dishonesty.
You're a bitter DB sitting in your basement making up lies about veterans and using middle school/Trump nicknames while at it.
Your supermodel wife (and/or embarrassed mother) must be SO proud of you.
Some on this site MIGHT just be "trolls." You're just straight up loser, liar, AH. Congrats.

Who wrote those words for Pence? Not Pence. That I know
It's pretty common for politicians to have speech writers. Even Churchill had a few on the payroll. How the fusk do you not know that? Jesus Christ, your naivety and ignorance continues to be astounding. It's like bubble world, with poncey angels floating all around.
And you still haven't answered those legitimate questions I asked you thricical (at least) about why you believe someone in the federal government is obligated to inform you every time a law enforcement officer's injury is an issue in a federal criminal proceeding.
The reason that nobody is gaining ground on Trump is because Trump gets a bump in the polls with each indictment. M-ga loves the criming by their big orange bad boy. And more indictments are on the way.
all these GOP hopefuls are banking on Trump going away and not being electable. They don’t understand the Trump base

The GOP hopefuls definitely understand Trump's base. All of them except DeSantis are probably just trying to promote a book or something. DeSantis, for whatever reason, decided to torch his own political career.

A respected reporter says trump ordered meadows to remove 1000 pages of classified documents. Which would be why meadows is (probably) working for the Feds now.
This seems to be a separate cache of documents than the mara a rubbisho documents but I'm not sure.
LMAO! Marge says she read the document with testimony from a guy, who was told from another guy that another guy knew that Biden was paid a 5 million bribe in working to oust Shorkin. Who was widely accepted as corrupt and counter US interests. And this action was already known US policy.
And how does our resident Right winger view this information?
"Joe Biden took a $5M bribe, full stop"! Yeah. Full stop alright.
These are the same wackos that can look at boxes, sworn testimony under oath of the closest Trump associates, signatures of Trump and documents of solid Proof of Trump's crimes and say "fake news".
