The general feeling is that May's plan is going to be voted down heavily, and the likely result if she loses by 100 or more is an early election, a government of unity, or a referendum to accept the deal or stay in the EU

Doubt it’ll be Big Chris.

quote:

"The language in the sentencing memo is different from what we've heard before," Christie told ABC's "This Week," noting that Trump's former attorney Cohen has previously said he violated campaign finance law at the president's direction. "The only thing that would concern me if I was the president's team this morning about this sentencing memo is the language."

"The language sounds very definite," Christie said. "And what I'd be concerned about is, what corroboration do they have?"

"Because everyone knows that Michael Cohen is not going to be the most effective or trustworthy witness on the stand, given some of his past statements," Christie said. "When prosecutors sound that definitive they've got more usually than just one witness."

No, think Trumpier. Trump goes the rest of his term without a CoS because that’ll be one less person telling him no and making him mad. It’s the fantasy of every scolded child ever: no adults to tell you what to do anymore. When it comes to Trump, always think like a toddler.

This has to stay with them just staying, right? They don't have to do any of this nonsense as the EU holds all the cards. There's no good deal to get when you leave the deal.

Well, sure, but removing him depends on some percentage of GOP legislators acting responsibly. I think you and I both know that isn't going to happen.

Anyway, this thread on Cohen is pretty fun https://twitter.com/metroadlib/status/1071395678306344960

This is amazing. A black lady lawyer getting drunk on Dogfish Head and making fun of Cohen while giving non-lawyers a look in to the legal system is such an awesome change of pace from the mostly-staid white man lawyer analysis that even PopeHat does.

And that was 14-loving-years ago. It will never cease to amaze me when right-wing pundits act aghast at having to sleep in a bed they've spent decades making.

Edit: love the bit where Tuck calls Stewart "John Kerry's butt-buddy" on national television.

Meanwhile, It will never cease to amaze me that that performance did not instantly kill Tucker Carlson's career and was instead the impetus for him to fail upward so hard that he went from being the second-string host of a debate show that aired at noon and no one watched, to one of the most influential voices on cable television.

I mean, how else do you get fired from two separate 24 hour networks for being ratings poison only to land in the captain's chair of a third one? (The answer to that involves a lot of sexual harassment and being lucky enough to be one of the last guys left standing after Fox threw down the Hannity Phalanx, aka the "we've lost so many hosts now that the remaining ones could murder a child live on air and we'd never fire them" doctrine.)

Well, being a right-wing media personality requires two things,

1. zero scruples
2. the ability to go more than twenty minutes without sticking your dick somewhere it doesn't belong

#1 makes #2 a bit of a challenge.

Edit: I suppose implicit is 1a. must have a dick, because no way Fox would ever give the center square to a woman.
