Day and night, boy don't sleep. See if you can post all night and all day. It's all up to you, allowing us all to see the light.

Another wacko

It would seem that serious people would be writing their representatives and asking them this question. "Exactly what is it you have been doing for me lately?"

The "people's business" is no getting done while the battle of egos continues in Washington.

The progressives are obstructing important legislation because their feelings got hurt when they under estimated the voting public.

Trump certainly does not help with his Tweeter outburst.

We are going down in flames and its all over pettiness and childish behavior

Personal Best Regards

We're going down in flames because whites are being bred out by Hispanics. There's a new majority in town and it's dragging the country down.

ALL.......EVERYTHING that is happening in Washington is DIRECTLY and totally and completely the fault of Donald Trump.

The man who "steers" our ship is the President always.

Trump has been dishonest and untruthful his entire and complete life.

People kept asking you people how you expect a 70 year old crook and liar to change.

He never had any morals his entire life.

To blame anyone else for this is a graphic example of total "head in the sand"

You and he were warned. You were told clearly he was a crook. You were told clearly what would happen. This is not shocking that it happened.

To deflect blame from this one single man is unforgivable. To think the blame for all of this belongs anywhere but at the feet of Donald Trump is plain stupid.

I, and others, warned even on this little forum about this man...every person who wrote about him for his entire life expressed their feelings, even fear.

Yet, you and others are so full of yourself, so self indulgent as your hero is, that you could possibly blame someone else is a monument to your total and complete "sellout"

Even if Comey's memo is accurate to the wording, there was no violation of law. So, once again the left gets hysterical and perverts the truth with exaggerations.

Does it make you proud to say, yeah but it is not a direct violation of the law.

You are speaking about the President of the United States

If President Trump asked then-FBI Director James Comey to drop the criminal investigation of General Michael Flynn, this would constitute obstruction of justice under 18 U.S.C. section 1505. Section 1505 makes it a crime to "endeavor to influence, obstruct, or impede" "any pending proceeding … before any department or agency of the United States." Obviously, Trump had knowledge that Flynn was the target of an FBI investigation. The FBI investigation was a "pending proceeding . . . before [a] department or agency of the United States." Further, if Trump had knowledge of a pending grand jury investigation targeting Flynn, his conduct would constitute an attempt to influence or obstruct a grand jury investigation. The FBI was an active participant in the grand jury investigation.

Also, 18 U.S.C. 1512(c)(2) punishes "Whoever corruptly . . . obstructs, influences, or impedes any official proceeding, or attempts to do so." A violation of section 1512 imposes a maximum sentence of 20 years

What brought down President Richard Milhous Nixon. And this looks far more serious than Watergate.

Yesterday I heard the media described as a bunch of squirrels on crack. Perfect. This can be said for many of the democratic members of congress and their supporters as well. They are all just waiting around for some comment that they can twist into something that it's not.

"ALL" "EVERYTHING"


YOU consistently say the stupidest things, you are actually, 100% ....a squirrel on crack.


Are the tards going to get out and enjoy the day, or will they post all their bitter day long?

All over an alleged memo to himself (Comey).....THREE MONTHS AGO, read over the phone to some reporter by someone. And then grabbed by the media and the congress as if 100% valid information.

BS!

Not sure if it rises to the real high level you give it but it is very close.

To the other stupid poster who suggested this "aged" memo to file means nothing, I suggest that he, if he can read, review the 2004 NSA case relative to Ashcroft, .Bush, etal.

These notes were the determining factor. Actually in another leak from the WH that criticizes leaks, it is said when this news broke, aides rushed in and asked Trump what he said, and he couldn't recall.

That is anecdotal and means little, but here is hoping Trump is actually taping people so we can actually determine truth.
