Ethics aside, telling a person "Hey, I think your dog might have rabies, how about you get yourself all nice and covered in its blood and nervous tissue?" is wildly dumb behavior, even for a cop.

I came to WSU for grad school in 2013 and lived by the university in a kind of lovely apartment that was still $600/month and moved out the next year. By the time I left Detroit this year, it had sold as a condo for something like $200,000.

The fact I'm being priced out of my own city, the city my uncle loving ran, pisses me off. And that's putting it mildly.

Yep. Manafort was already on and replaced by Bannon at that point iirc. He was already up to his eyeballs in it.

Now that I think of it that's sort of strange because they absolutely had to have known everything Manafort was up to so the only way I can read this was they were gently hinting that he had to clean up yesterday. Of course Trump didn't

Manafort came to the campaign and was working for free. To Trump that sounds like Art of the Deal: "My campaign manager has worked on many campaigns, big campaigns, presidential campaigns, and he wants to work with me so much, so much, so much he is willing to work for free."

To everyone else it sounds like Manafort was a Russian plant. And he was!

Like, we were making jokes about it as soon as he joined the campaign, and the jokes increased when we found out he just turned up at Mar-A-Lago one night and offered to work for free

Collins is a blindly loyal Republican that's it.

Like McCain, she is happy to play the roll of 'moderate' in the media but when her vote is needed she is more than happy to ensure some awful poo poo that the GOP wants passed is actually passed.

Fat wads of donor cash are, in their estimation at least, apparently enough of a motivator

Yeah but the others are getting donor cash PLUS other stuff. It's just hard to think of these greedy, stupid, pigs having limits you know? Like, I just picture them all standing around and not freaking out when someone gets a bigger portion than them and I just can't see it.
