Woah, Kansas finally reached the breaking point. I guess it takes literally years of ceaseless suffering, including years of draconian cuts to education, for Republicans to admit that enormous tax cuts don't bring prosperity. https://twitter.com/HunterMw/status/872283627551412224 https://twitter.com/BryanLowry3/status/872284837062856707

Paradoxish posted:Was there any context to this at all to make it seem less over the top? All of the clips I've seen are just the statement, which is hilarious and comes across as "I support literally killing the poor." There are a lot of well off and "I'm not poor" poor people who fully agree with her. A majority of GA-06 voters, for example.

Tzen posted:And of course Trump tweets out support of the outcome without first letting the intel community do their job. Jesus loving christ. Late but it's even worse than that. If I'm reading right the FBI was already in Doha investigating this when everything went down and Trump opened his dumb mouth. I guess there's a chance the FBI or the NSC didn't think they had enough to brief Trump on the hack yet, but more likely is he skipped or ignored the briefing. Or (comedy option/not comedy option) they're not briefing Trump on Russia hacks because he's compromises.

Josh Lyman posted:2 Karen Handel yard signs appeared in my neighborhood over the last week, an Orthodox Jewish neighborhood. I'm guessing that Handel is throwing her signs up everywhere in some hope that she can make her base of support look huge and drive turnout. Isn't there a statistic out there that people like voting for a winning team, so when your candidate shows a better chance of winning you get higher turnout?

Like Good Ole Edwin Edwards said " In order to lose this election I gotta be caught in bed with a dead girl or a live boy." . At this point the bar has been lowered so far for Republican candidates that it really doesn't matter what they say or do they will still not lose votes.

I mean Qatar has sea access, is KSA going to blow up or stop food shipments into the country? What happens if those food shipments come back with Iranian escorts? What happens if starving people start showing up at our military base or bombs start flying with 11,000 US military right outside Doha? Very messy, and the CiC is going to be too busy tweeting at Comey to intervene.

awesmoe posted:please wait for sourcing before getting all fiestyv KSA is demanding the control of the sovereignty. Either they agree and become a vassal and the current leadership is killed or imprisioned OR KSA invades. This seems to be on the same level as Austria's demands 1914- they want to invade. The Mid East thread is saying it's authentic? Hard to tell phone posting.

Petr posted:Why does everyone have so much hope for the testimony of the man who ruined Hillary Clinton to a legislative body controlled by the Republicans? A man who is known for taking meticulous notes and generally performs very well in front of congress.... is giving testimony about his interactions with someone who is notoriously lax about norms and word choice. The same man has spent the few months alternating between cajoling him and trying to fight him. Comey's an absolute fucker and should have been fired for the reason that Trump gave as a pretext, but I'm not going to blame anyone for being excited for Thursday. It's 50/50 that Comey's public testimony will wind up being the bulk of publicly available information regarding administration interference with the investigations: Mueller is under no obligation to release any of his findings publicly, especially if he decides not to pursue charges.

All the evidence point to Comey being an idealistic naive moron, rather than being a partisan poo poo. He and Mueller once put up a united front and threatened GWB that they would both resign (Mueller was FBI director) and cause a political shitstorm if he did.... something I forget about. But anyway, he thought he was doing the right thing with Hillary. He's wrong and an idiot, but he now loving hates Trump and wants to burn him.

The Saudis have done all kinds of dumb stuff in the region to force their hegemony. The US should be using it's leverage to get the Saudis to back off of a key ally, but loving dumbfuck Trump decided to go all-in dogpiling on Qatar to help his new Saudi BFFs. Jesus christ.
