    Security clearances should only exist for those who need them, why should these has been's have security clearances? You will want the Russians to have security clearances next

    One security clearance that should be pulled immediately is the one Donald Trump has. He has little idea what he's doing other than following Obama and trying to negate his legacy. That is the driving force behind his nutty actions.

    Look at Pompeo, an arrogant pig if there ever was one, who couldn't answer the simplest question about Trump at the Senate hearing because Trump purposely keeps him out of the loop. There now is one-man government in the US with Congress being cowed into submission. And that one man is a madman.

    Pompeo never answered any questions, just stated the policy didn't change (At least as far as HE knows). No etling what the Dufus and Putin have concocted together, but Putin is sure telling everybody they did.

    This "Dancing with the Dufus" administration has to go.

    I don't know what you are talking about but then nor do you. Tal, very soon you will have an opportunity to test public opinion once again. I know that mid term the public usually fall out of love with the government, but what will you do if they don't deliver a punishing blow?

    That's your concern from across the ponds? Two years and you loony right wingers still worry about Hillary? If she were president no doubt there would be heads still exploding and even MORE investigations abound, but come on Clete, shouldn't you reserve your hope with the lights staying on, or the roos migrating to Asia.

    More important Tom is the hacking attempts by the Russian operatives on the 2018 midterm elections. This after the Dufus soiled himself in Helsinki, and tweeting just this week how Vlad may HELP the Dems after he has come down so hard on him!

    Sheeez! He is so full of himself. Repubs should impeach the fool forthwith.

    You could hope he will tell you, but it is more likely Trump will tell you something along the lines of fake news, more fake news, or fake news again. I think he has made sufficient mistakes to wind up with a hostile Congress and you may get your wish, Just 100 days, eh? or perhaps he will antagonise everyone with a shutdown

    The vote in 2018 will be decided by the NeverHillary voters (voted for Obama and Trump).Trump best Evita by 17% in this group. 20% of them said they did not like Trump ,but voted for him anyway because they liked Evita less. She is not on the ballot and the smart play by the Dems is to throw her under the bus. BUT they are making a mistake by drifting so far lefty progressive. That may work for them in the Dem primaries .But if the local Repub candidate is mainstream and the Dem candidate a
    Ocasio-Cortez like socialist ;then not only will the Dems not gain seats ;they will lose them .

    On that other hand you might get a mid term flush
  • Jul 30, 2018, 06:13 AM

    I think it will be about local turnout. Dems have been notorious for not voting in mid terms, especially young people. Repubs always vote. Socialist Bernie is pretty popular, and The Dufus said he will be a very active in the campaign, a thing he jumped all over Obama for. Nothing new there. Righties hate the idea of socialism, but progressives can embrace it because AMERICAN socialism is based in equality and opportunity and FAIRNESS as opposed to the Soviet example that The Dufus embodies.

    The deciding factor though is NO electoral college to worry about in the mid terms despite the economy so those midwestern races will be interesting. I imagine a lot of Walmart workers who didn't get those big bonuses, or huge tax cuts might not be as grateful to The Dufus, or repubs. I see a lot more lies coming from the Dufus in the coming months.

    That's what he does. I guess nothing new there either, except Hillary is not running, but I doubt that changes anything for the right. Then we have the wildcard. Will VLAD get in this one too?

    He already is making trouble.

    He is an international criminal gaming the system for many decades. I expect them to have a vast amount of bank records, and documents, and witnesses to his crimes. LOL, he could have been free on house arrest if he had left the witnesses against him alone. They squealed on him! This will be played by the book, as will his SECOND trial.

    If that's a kangaroo trial, then you better explain how when you use such abroad term. What you think he is being railroaded, Clete?

    the fact that Podesta has immunity for committing the same crime says all.

    How do you know that in fact Podesta committed the same crime? Manafort is on trial for bank fraud and tax evasion. Not saying Podesta isn't guilty of SOMETHING, just not the same something. FARA violations vs bank and tax fraud? Not the same thing.

    Lots of wild stuff out there for sure but this was reported last week.

    The recent Russian military personnel indictment does mention witting and unwitting American co conspirators. We'll see what happens but this is the latest:

    Well I wish that were true Tal, but we seem to have them contained to the political wilderness. Our preselection processes seem to keep them out of the major parties and giving some where else to go means we hear from them now and again, but they can't grab much media air. The preferential voting system means that even if they gain some support the possibility of them being elected is slim. Of course, every now an again someone with kangaroos loose in the top paddock is detected, such as dear ole Barnaby Joyce, you remember him from the Depp dogs affair and the brilliant flame out after being found to be a kiwi and inseminating a staff member
