Important thing to keep in mind: Of the charged against Manafort in the badly-redacted document, there seems to be no denial of their factuality by Manafort, his lawyers, or anyone else in Trump's orbit. In fact, most of the charges in the Russia investigation (with the exception of specific times and places, like whether Cohen went to Prague) have not been denied factually. It is just that the campaign, and its supporters, and its detractors, have kept on targeting whether they are relevant, or whether they broke the law. "Yes, Manafort gave polling data to Russia intelligence, who we know were actively trying to support Trump, but is that really a crime?" Also, I doubt Trump parses his words that closely, but notice the phrasing: "Didn't know". Not "Don't know". If a lawyer was saying that, be careful, because it could mean he didn't know at the time, but has found out since. "Yes, I have the garbage top on my neck, but it could have been anyone eating that garbage."

Crow Jane posted:Do you think Trump ever looks at the dumpy lumps who form his fan base and dies a little inside? I hope so. He wants to think that they are just the hired help of his real supporters and they kind of are. Mixed in between the rabble that believes in him so long as he's president/head of the cult.

Haha! You know he's lying because he actually answered the question! "trump did you do this thing?" "No!" *half a beat too long of eye contact to see if they bought the lie* trump is possibly the worst liar I've ever seen.

ATC is already renowned as one of the most stressful jobs in existence. Add to it the threat of losing your house or car, food insecurity, etc., and it could easily get a planeload of people killed. Trump is toying with fire, but he is much too dumb to realize it.

One of the school districts I work for just sent a letter home to all the parents reminding everyone about free and reduced lunch applications for anyone affected by the government shutdown and something about that got me more than I'd have thought. Like, getting a letter from your school being all like "oh hey, we know a bunch of you are worried about how to feed your kids" on this.

Beto isn't instagramming his dental appointment for the benefit of the common voter, duh. It's just normal for a buyer to want to check out the teeth on any workhorse he intends to purchase. This is a routine checkup for the donor class, it's just that he's decided to handle them all at once by streaming it. edit: In all sincerity this might be the weirdest "This is how you humans behave, right?" on the part of Dem pol since we found out about Chilling in Cedar Rapids.

So at what point do the big states start withholding payments to the federal government and redirect that money to taking over essential services the feds aren't providing? vvvvvvv It's also going to gift a ton of unpleasant images of him to anyone working on attack ads/memes haveblue fucked around with this message at 18:43 on Jan 10, 2019 |

tbh my thought on Beto instagramming his dentist appointment is that it's just kind of weird and off-putting and also probably makes his dentist's life harder.

Shimrra Jamaane posted:Would that create a literal constitutional crisis? Not a *constitutional* crisis, it's very clear that this would be illegal and that the states are in the wrong. It would certainly be a political and practical crisis of the highest order if they actually resorted to that or if a court tried to order them to stop because it means the alternative is absolutely certain mass suffering.

I got my teeth cleaned this morning too and sent a Snapchat out of it. It’s not that weird. In other news I FINALLY have insurance as of Jan. 1 and I paid ZERO dollars for my cleaning today and what the cleaning costs is $20 more than the entire year worth of dental premiums will be. I’m loving shook insurance is amazing. I have eight cavities and I’m going to get them all fixed and only have to pay 10 percent for each one! Next I need to start looking into scheduling a million doctor appointments. This insurance poo poo rules and I need to take advantage of it before it goes away.

After the 2016 convention, the site he runs (DailyKos) went full Cultural Revolution and banned anybody who said anything even vaguely supportive of Sanders once Clinton secured the nomination, which is a totally normal thing to do and not all indicative of a belief you can cargo cult someone into a position of popular support.
