As some of the smarter rats are starting to flee the sinking Trumptanic, Trump can't new ones to jump on board. Nick Ayers just turned down the Chief of Staff job and as par usual there's no plan B to replace Kelly.

In other news :
In each of the five years preceding Paul Ryan's speakership, annual deficits fell. In each of the three years since he's been speaker, they rose. And that's entirely due to policy decisions Ryan made:

You know the Republican Party is in deep trouble when the Dems are “seen” as the party of fiscal responsibility even though over the last quarter century or so they HAVE been the party of greater fiscal responsibility. Just look at decreasing deficits over the Obama and Clinton administrations vs the increasing deficits under all the Republican administrations from Reagan forward. Just that finally the GOP can’t “snow” the public anymore when they don’t walk the talk.
How did I do?

Even stalwart Trump defenders are beginning to let a bit of reality intrude. Last week, Andrew Napolitano, the New Jersey judge turned Fox News commentator, informed his FNC flock that, actually, this Mueller thing is real. Attacking the president’s efforts to pretend that it’s all fake news, Napolitano explained, “I am not of the view that Mueller is on a fishing expedition or is about to go home,” adding that news about Cohen and Manafort was bad indeed for the White House. “Federal criminal prosecution is not beanbag,” he concluded ominously, warning of more indictments to come.
Bwa ha ha

Then another Fox News talking head decided to level with his audience. Andrew McCarthy, a onetime DOJ prosecutor turned right-wing pundit, and a stout defender of the White House in its travails with the Special Counsel, stated that, in fact, [b]Trump is likely to be indicted by the feds. With the latest Cohen memo, McCarthy explained that Team Trump’s 2016 violations of campaign finance laws seemed real, adding “the Cohen case in New York City is not about Cohen. The president is in peril of being charged.”
Bwa ha ha
PS sounds like a something 🍔

The snow job comes from the liberal media. Here's reality.

Andrew McCarthy, a onetime DOJ prosecutor turned right-wing pundit, and a stout defender of the White House in its travails with the Special Counsel, stated that, in fact, [b]Trump is likely to be indicted by the feds. With the latest Cohen memo, McCarthy explained that Team Trump’s 2016 violations of campaign finance laws seemed real, adding “the Cohen case in New York City is not about Cohen. The president is in peril of being charged.”
"Cohen pleaded guilty in August, prosecutors induced him to make an extraordinary statement in open court: the payments to the women were made “in coordination with and at the direction of” the candidate for federal office – Donald Trump.
Prosecutors would not have done this if the president was not on their radar screen. Indeed, if the president was not implicated, I suspect they would not have prosecuted Cohen for campaign finance violations at all. Those charges had a negligible impact on the jail time Cohen faces, which is driven by the more serious offenses of tax and financial institution fraud, involving millions of dollars.
Moreover, campaign finance infractions are often settled by payment of an administrative fine, not turned into felony prosecutions. To be sure, federal prosecutors in New York City have charged them as felonies before – most notably in 2014 against Dinesh D’Souza, whom Trump later pardoned.
In marked contrast, though, when it was discovered that Barack Obama’s 2008 presidential campaign was guilty of violations involving nearly $2 million – an amount that dwarfs the $280,000 in Cohen’s case – the Obama Justice Department decided not to prosecute. Instead, the matter was quietly disposed of by a $375,000 fine by the Federal Election Commission..... do campaign finance violations qualify as “high crimes and misdemeanors,” which is the constitutional standard for impeachment? It is hard to imagine an infraction that the Justice Department often elects not to prosecute is sufficiently egregious to rise to that level, but the debate on this point between partisans would be intense."

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostBy increasing taxes on the middle class. The BS about upper incomes not paying their "fair share" is BS. According to Pew Research those people making above $250,000 paid 51.6% of all individual income taxes, though they accounted for only 2.7% of all returns filed. The taxes that Dems are going to hit Americans with are going to hit the middle class. The next highest income level already paying the biggest share is the $100 - 199K level who are already paying 21.9% of income taxes though they only represent 11.8% of returns filed. To put that into perspective, that income level would represent a teacher married to a police officer. And here we're only speaking of income taxes, not all the other taxes Dems will be whacking us with.
Explain.
