Dammit! I Had Money Riding That Mathis Would Be Next
Rex Tillerson went out with a blaze of glory.
On Friday, Trump asked Tillerson to step aside. Early this morning, Tillerson made this headline.
Tillerson calls the poisoning “a really egregious act” and says it’s “almost beyond comprehension” that a state actor would use such a dangerous substance in a public place.
I guess Tillerson’s non-disclosure document did not include Russia.
Bye, bye, Rex. I hope this public humiliation loosens your jaw a little.
UPDATED: Now that I’ve had my second cup of coffee, I am beginning to understand that Tillerson’s jaw wasn’t loosened by being fired. He committed suicide.
Tillerson claims that he’s not even spoken to the president, but apparently Putin has. Tillerson made the statement before the firing.
Tillerson said he was not informed on Friday and hasn’t spoken to Trump. Did Putin order this?
1Trump has not got word yet from Putin on what he is to say.
2Puppet Trump will dance and sing.
When Puppet master Putin master pulls his strings.
Another singer for Mueller’s choir, maybe? Rex will have more than enough material for a book. Count on it.
3Tillerson did his job: dismantle the State Dept.
4Without the ties to the rest of the world, our govt. is blind and deaf…
Russia deployed a military grade nerve agent in a city of 40,000 people. Chemical warfare experts were sent to the scene and hundreds of people may have been poisoned. In England. In 2018.
Further proof that, (in the words of the great Preet Bahara), “Vladimir Putin could stand in the middle of 5th Avenue and shoot somebody and he wouldn’t lose Donald Trump’s vote.”
5Old Fart:
And yet, all we hear crickets from the GOP. Not one comment from Eddie Munster Ryan, Mitchy McTurtle, et al…No one. Not one seems distressed, horrified or even remotely concerned about the dismantling of the US government. When is someone within the government going to say ENOUGH and do something?
6Prime Minister Theresa May showed what a real leader does when her citizens are attacked. She came out right away and condemned Russia for the unconscionable attack. As far as I know, Dump has not issued a statement backing her up and condemning his puppet master. What a pitiful excuse for a president!
7Rex Tillerson, Putin whisperer, Trumpov buttboy, and dripping with oily Russian connections, seeing a blatant, dangerous, bio-hit in a British city (one of our closest allies, and Conservative-led), finally has enough and speaks out about deadly Russian ‘diplomacy’.
Just hours after Rex speaks out, apparently without a heads-up to Dear Leader, Trumpov and his Russian Mafia-saturated regime decide to summarily fire Tillerson. Graciously advising Rex of his termination days later by twittergram.
Advocating hate and violence against Americans of every kind, remaining silent or spinning propaganda on dozens of actual attacks on US citizens, just SOP for GrOPers.
But badmouth one of the US’ most dangerous, but very well-connected to our White House, enemies, Putin and Russia, and Rexy has crossed the only limit that these traitors have.
Like former VP Joe Biden stated, if this stuff is true, it’s treason, a very BFD.
Except that 30-40% of so-called Americans see and hear about all of this treasonous activity and want more of it.
Are y’all prepared for whatever may be necessary to rid our nation of these treasonous elements if last-chance Mueller should falter or fail to cleanse our government of these traitorous vermin?
8There’s only one way to correct this. Vote! They won’t change. We need to change them.
9I would have bet good $ on Mattis, too. He’s the only person in the Cabinet worth a spoonful of spit. He stood up for transgendered troops. He tried to prevent the idiotic parade. I can only surmise he’s got something on Cadet Bonespurs that makes him untouchable.
10The bodies are piling up in merrie olde England.
Another Russian expat Putin critic, Nikolai Glushkov, former head of Aeroflot (the Russian national airline), was found dead in his home under suspicious circumstances.
I sure hope that Robert Mueller has bulletproof 24/7 protection.
Outside of the nearly powerless Congressional Democrats, possibly a massive number of Democratic voters in November (an overvote is needed just to barely break even in the face of the surely huge vote tampering coming), Mueller is all that’s left to prevent this slow-moving coup-de-etat from destroying our nation.
I’m not even sure our military is now uncorruptible enough to avoid this (I have known, and know a number of mil who are just peachy-keen on Comrade Donnei).
We’re just one Reichstag Fire, one Krystallenacht, one false-flag ‘terrorist’ event, one nuclear ‘accident’, one intentional biological agent pandemic, away from our Erste Amerikanische Diktatur Regime.
11To what do we owe the pleasure of Rexit? While speaking blaspheme about Uncle Putie leads the Speculation Sweepstakes, there are other considerations. Rex did commit the familial perfidy of taking neither of the Javanka on his latest and last diplomatic mission. And, of course, having called Donnie a ****ing moron has been festering for months. Probably an accumulation effect combined with the atrocity of taking a day off during the trip to nap after Donnie called him in the middle of the night. Yes, after further thought, it was the nap that did it.
12“Will no one rid us of that tumultuous beast?” an apropos misquote from W. Shakespeare.
All we need now is the green coveralls to appear strolling down our streets with no insignia, the way they did in the Crimea.
13The USA — We — just replaced our top diplomat with our top spy. I knew this presidency was bad. I knew it was really bad. I didn’t know it was this bad.
14Nancy, “I didn’t know it was this bad.”.
With all due respect, where have you been for the last two years, in a coma?
Comrade Donnei has smelled like the bottom of my septic tank/cesspools ever since he was a toddler. Our Dear Leader had a very long sordid history, known by many (I barely knew who he was a few years ago also too).
Dear Leader Pendejo Trumpov is also soon going to get rolled by his Rocketman nemesis, the DPRK’s Dear Leader Kimmy. Who, while also an heiritable POS, is quite intelligent, was educated in some of the best western schools, and excelled in his devious apprenticeship to power.
15Sandridge:
With all due respect, I knew all of what you are saying but it is still worse than that. Not only are we dealing with tRump but we also have Gina Haspel as head of CIA. She is a new level of torture and illegality that is unique even amongst tRump and his friends. This is worst than anyone could have expected.
16And the ides of march claim another victim
17Trump finally criticizes Putin:

Rex Tillerson never impressed me in his role as SecState. For Jeez sake he had six former presidents who earlier had served as SecState, including THOMAS JEFFERSON, for role models. Sadly their are neither statesmen nor diplomats in this administration. Pompeo is just filler for the org chart. Drumpf is his own SecState.
Otoh I’m hoping Gina Haspel is the diamond sometimes found in a goat’s a$$. She’s a career intelligence officer, not a hack looking to enhance her resume.
19@Micr
20Alas she is no diamond though she belongs where you put her.
Her mantra.
“Torture today, torture tomorrow torture forever laws do not apply. When in doubt destroy the evidence”
So is the State Department building now completely empty? that seems to be what this maladministration had in mind to begin with. Every exec dept. sec. seems to have been given one mission only: destroy what you have been appointed to. As for Pompeo, just breathe easy a bit. It won’t be long before all the golden haze surrounding his appointment turns to deadly smog. Especially with the Great Appointer In Chief.
21McMaster on deck; Nikki Haley in the hole.
