Dolash posted:Trump is going to flat-out pardon his son for unspecified and not-admitted wrongdoing, with the explicit justification of "He's my son, how could I not? I'm just protecting him from the FAKE NEWS by the DEEP STATE anyway!" and Republicans will embrace this as a totally fine use of executive power.

I recall a bunch of times during the campaign where he promised to give a speech where he was really gonna attack Hillary with new dirt, and then they would pretend he never promised to do it.

https://twitter.com/yashar/status/884221661012267008 Don’t get ahead of the reporting. That’s one of the first lessons you’re supposed to learn as a novitiate in the church of journalism. Don’t assert what is not yet established by the facts. The consequences can be dire. In the rare case when Woodward and Bernstein stumbled during their Watergate reporting, it was because at one point they got a little ahead of their carefully established web of facts when it came to who was running the conspiracy. In the end, they were right, but the stumble allowed the Nixon Administration to charge, in modern parlance, #fakenews. “Shabby journalism” is what Ron Ziegler, the Sean Spicer on the Nixon era, called it. The Trump Administration should not win any moral or political plaudits even if it turns out, in the end, that there was no collusion between the President’s campaign and the Russian government. Its countless sins of lying, conflict of interest, shady business transactions, character assassination, and so much else assures it a place in history as a uniquely grimy Administration. And we are not yet a half year into its reign.

Baloogan posted:well, I'm pretty sure its against the law for the US military to fire nukes at US cities just by posse commitatus Actually, the Posse Comitatus Act only refers to the army and the Air Force. So he could only target navy nukes at US cities. Also, violating the Posse Comitatus act is a loving misdemeanor punishable up to two years in prison or a fine of up to ten thousand dollars.

The Glumslinger posted:Like, you keep trying to claim that nothing happened, but its getting more and more obvious that something happened not really. my core beef has always been with the "evidence" that the DNC and Podesta hacks were directed by Russia. it's always been obvious that Russia was trying to influence the election and that people like Flynn were lying about it for some reason. if this Don Jr thing turns out to be the reason, that'll be pretty funny, since the timeline for it makes a lot of the other parts of the conspiracy that people have floated seem silly, like the Steele dossier (piss tape is still 100% real)

The Glumslinger posted:Joe, real talk, if the campaign chair is a clear russian plant, and his son (jr) and chief advisor(Kush) are all getting in bed with russians on multiple occasions, something was probably going on. There is clearly an exceptionally sloppy coverup and more and more of it points to them trying to trade dirt for sanction relief. *breathlessly charges in with a very suck zone voice* rural voters don't care that the president colluded with a hostile foreign power.

it's kind of insane that the NYT can release a breaking story showing Don Jr, Kushner, and Manafort secretly meeting with Russian agents, that the story is corroborated by five separate sources, that Don Jr has admitted that the meeting happened, that journos have dug up info on Goldstone's social media and confirmed it through his posts That after all of the above, Glenn Greenwald (who deliberately nuked a source for the crime of sending Greenwald proof that Russian interference happened) trudges onto Twitter to claim that people are just being hysterical about Russia
