Senator Orin Hatch says that Trump does, too.  No, I am not kidding.

When the retiring Hatch – oh, and thank God for that small favor – was asked if he thinks that Trump committed any crimes …

“No because I don’t think he was involved in crimes but even then, you know, you can make anything a crime under the current laws; if you want to you can blow it way out of proportion you can do a lot of things.”

When told the federal prosecutors were making the allegations, Hatch said: “OK but I don’t care; all I can say is he’s doing a good job as president.”

And by “good job,” I’m pretty sure Hatch means, “Hell, I’m getting richer and there are no scary black people in the White House.  That’s good.”

I’m wondering if Anthony Scaramucci is looking for seasonal work?  I mean, we’ve got to find someone to be willing to be Donald Trump’s Chief of Staff or we’re gonna end up with a thriving gift wrap to the rich department and zero help in middle class tax cut and appliances.

You know, there’s always Rick Perry.  He’s been laying low, hasn’t he?

Maybe we could get one of those religious guys.  They could end every statement with “or you’re going to hell.”

Any other suggestions?  Customer Kary has this notice from CraigsList

Prince Jared Kushner of the Trump White House has gone into the Saudi Arabia business.  The New York Times offers an in-depth look at how Jared got himself manipulated by the Saudi’s.

According to the Saudis, it wasn’t difficult.  Jared is dumb, in debt, and desperately needs his ego fed.

CNN grabs the best tidbit from the Times reporting —

Kushner offered the de facto Saudi ruler advice “about how to weather the storm” following the death of Khashoggi, the Times reported on Saturday, citing a Saudi source familiar with the conversations.

We are having a cold rainy day just made for naps.  I hope you are, too.

Well, if Mueller is recommending “substantial ” prison time for Michael Cohen, makes you wonder what Manafort is getting.  Oops – federal prosecutors, not Mueller.

Hang on for details.

This is not from The Onion.  Best I can tell it is the absolute truth.

A Denair, California-based company called the Special Services Group, LLC won a $42,595 DEA purchase order at the end of November for a “custom Shop Vac concealment with Canon M50B.” Canon describes the M50B as a “high-sensitivity…PTZ [Pan-Tilt-Zoom] network camera” that “captures video with remarkable color and clarity, even in very low-light environments.”

And I can buy a Ring for $99. that pretty much does the same thing.

So head on out to the garage and put a blanket over your Shop Vac or take it to your next kindergarten Christmas pageant.  The agents will enjoy the entertainment.

Thanks to Chloe Bear for the heads up.
