I know Manafort is the big story here, but I like the confirmation that Ecuador doesn't want Assange any more and is looking for a face saving way to ditch him.

It's ridiculous. Hell, Wohl still haven't faced any consequences, has he, for another person who's blatantly criminal and supremely incompetent (though not part of the administration)?

That was for the security fraud and a while ago. I mean, has he faced consequences for the Mueller stuff? Legal consequences, not the public humiliation he's too stupid to recognize.

Honestly? There might not be one. It was so poorly considered and executed that pursuing it would hurt Mueller's reputation more than the original slander.

I mean, it got shut down almost immediately on the fringes of fascist Twitter. Mueller might not even know who Wohl is, let alone what he did.

It strains credibility that he wouldn't know, if only since it was all over the news for a day or two, but that's fair.

As we see with Mueller, the feds don't really move on suspects until they can already feel their hands around their necks.

Wohl could very well be already up poo poo creek but they want everything possible done first.

5.1 Million Pounds of Beef has been recalled due to salmonella

This recall is an expansion of 6.5 million lbs of beef in October.

246 infected and 56 have been hospitalized across 25 states. The FDA was the one that issued the recall and not the company which raises the question...wtf were they doing eh? Also, funny how we get a back to back recall of beef and romaine lettuce for contamination with the Deregulator in Chief at the helm making GBS threads into our food supply.

Stay safe goons!

I don't care how he arrived at that decision (which I suspect involved a lot of yelling), all I care about is that he arrived at it.


I'm a bit shocked that Stormy has kept with him after the billing poo poo and him apparently going with that defamation filing without her explicit ok.

Russia has been pushing the treaty boundaries for a couple years at this point. Dissolving the treaty isn't the right answer through, it is to penalize Russia for breaking the treaty.
