Long-time customer Deb caught a good one:

I’m certain it’s just a coincidence that the FBI interview where Papadopoulos lied about his Russian contacts came on the same day, Jan 27, that Trump asked Comey for his loyalty pledge.

I am thinking how easy it would be for Papadopoulous to get word to Trump about what questions were being asked.

I’m waiting for Sarah Huckabooboo’s press conference.

I dunno, maybe I’m missing the point here, but it seems to me that the George Papadopoulos story isn’t getting enough attention.

So, Papdopoulos, a foreign policy advisor to Trump, admits lying to the FBI about his connection to the Russian government and Hillary’s emails. You know, how the Russian government influenced the United States election.

The plea represents the most explicit evidence connecting the Trump campaign to the Russian government’s meddling in last year’s election.

Papadopoulos was arrested last July at Dulles International airport. “He pleaded guilty on October 5 and now appears to be a cooperating witness in Mueller’s investigation.”

He knows about the Russians trying to influence the election.  The question is – who knew it was happening and how high did it go in the Trump campaign?

I predict this guy is gonna flip like a gymnast with an Olympic itch.

Okay, this is interesting.  On page 8 of the Papadopoulos Statement of Offense, this appears.

“We need someone to communicate that DT is not doing these trips. It should be someone low level in the campaign so as not to send any signal.”

Flipping like the fry cook at the Waffle House.

The game ended about 1:00 am in Houston.  The entire city rocked.

Today’s a day off before the series ends in El Lay on Tuesday.

So, as soon as I understand what happened, I can pay attention to Paul Manafort.  I would like to thank major league baseball for a day off and Robert Mueller for some entertainment.

Here ya go —

Thanks to Carol for the heads up!

The weekend in Nashville, Tennessee, a group held a rally protesting a statue of Nathan Bedford Forrest.  The statue is on private land but is on the interstate highway and can’t be avoided.  It is damn ugly.

The statue was designed by the founder of the The League of the South, a white nationalist organization, and is a grotesque work of art 25 feet in height.  The owner of the statue, Bill Dorris, says the statue is not racist and calls slavery a form of “social security” for African Americans

Okay, I think people have the right to put whatever they want on their property.  I’m saying this as a woman whose husband put a professionally designed 25 foot banner in front of our house in a very Republican neighborhood when Barack Obama was elected president.  Both times.

I also understand why someone would want to protest something this racist and this damn ugly.  Honey, this thing is so damn ugly that just walking by it will make your clothes wrinkle.

But, liberals just don’t know how to do this stuff.  This is a rare case where there’s a more productive solution.  How ’bout protesting with signs that say Nathan Bedford Forrest honest-to-God was really that ugly and was probably some kind of space alien on cocaine but white people love him even though he obviously did not have one pure gene in his body.  And we need to honor deformed horses in Tennessee, by gawd.

But, I need to show you how it’s being protested by a man who is obviously after my own heart and means oh so well, but ends up being … huh?

You can see the big one here.

Ok, I get that you welcome African Americans, people from Mexico, gays, Jews, Christians and transexuals.  You don’t welcome the Klan, Nazis, confederates, statues to Nathan Bedford Forrest, and … Tom Brady?

Tom Brady?

Really?  It’s kinda like, “Oh hell, while we’re at it, Tom Brady can go screw himself.”

Oh yeah, this really happened.  Greatest Twitter ever.

Yes, they were out shooting peasants.

Louie Gohmert, who was along with them for the peasant shooting, commented on Trump, Jr. …

“Guy’s a great shot — he knows what he’s doing, he knows ammunition, he knows weapons, and I’m very impressed.”

Other things Junior knows all about: collusion and treason.

Thanks to everybody for the heads up.
