Lots of Serious People sending out trial balloons that they will be good apologists for when they eventually start shooting live rounds at the migrant crowds. poo poo like this is why Never Trumpers need to be rejected along with any Democratic politician that supports conservative stances on immigration. They are poison and rot the barrel from within.

They also cannot comprehend that just because Franken didn't do what Bill Cosby did it doesn't make him not a goddamn sexmonster.

apparently Corsi is still just basically blabbing to everyone he can https://twitter.com/kylegriffin1/status/1067076795219017728 it may actually be time for an indictment finally. no way can "defiantly telling the media he doesn't accept the deal you confidentially offered him" not expedite things

It ended up not mattering. Tina Smith has turned out to be a pretty good Senator, and she just won election in her own right--all of which we tried to point out to the "but you can't kick him out cause he's a member of the triiiiiiiiiibe" crowd. I remember feeling genuinely angry during that whole affair that so many people around me who I thought were supporters of women's rights were so willing to look the other way because Franken was a Democrat. As far as I'm concerned, Kirsten Gillibrand earned my support for that move alone the day she called for Franken to be ousted, even though she knew it probably wouldn't win her a lot of friends and it was a politically risky thing for her to do. In a way, I think she was even right about Bill Clinton. He should have been punished for that bullshit with Lewinsky--for wasting everyone's time lying about it when telling the truth from the start would have left the Republicans holding their own dicks and bleating about him being a bad husband.

Groovelord Neato posted:kavanaugh is on the supreme court. Kavanaugh was always going to get onto the loving Court barring some sort of miracle where Jeff Flake grows a spine and Susan Collins grows a conscience. The point is that we'd have spent weeks relitigating Al Franken pretending to grab Leeann Tweeden's boobs on that USO tour if he'd still been a Senator and it would have obfuscated any of the coverage about Kavanaugh's rapey, drunken antics.

eke out posted:apparently Corsi is still just basically blabbing to everyone he can This suggests strongly that Corsi provided Mueller with something implicating bigger fish and that is the exciting part. Corsi is a relative nobody (though a piece of poo poo, yes) and I am very curious as to what he had on whom that Mueller felt was worth a plea deal. Roger Stone is the obvious choice but I wouldn't be surprised if he isn't the only one involved (Don Jr?).

Yeah the GOP is the party of mysogynists and racists so their voters don't give a poo poo when they are. The Democrats billing themselves as the counter to that means they are held to that standard. It's not fair but it's the right thing to do and builds credibility. You can't claim to support women when you only do it if they are accusing Republicans. It's why the attacks on Monica Lewinski are so absolutely gross. Democrats taking a stand there was absolutely the right thing to do.

Also moderately interesting they keep saying perjury specifically. Could just be imprecise usage, but if it's true it'd mean Corsi lied to the grand jury under oath, not just FBI agents a la papadopoulos

Being worried is simply the smart state to be in if you've got the FBI looking even remotely on your general direction. Doubly so if you are guilty as poo poo like Trump is.
