•That's according to special counsel Robert Mueller's office, which says he faces seven counts,
including witness tampering, obstruction of justice, and false statements.

It is and nothing is done about it because the RINO party is complicit. Two years holding both houses and the WH and the people who SHOULD be arrested are not and instead innocent people are set up and arrested. Read the charges against him. Witness tampering? Obstruction? False statement? That could mean he said he had corn flakes for breakfast when he had eggs. Meanwhile Hillary who violated the espionage act 110 times, who has hardcore evidence against her gets not so much as a parking ticket. Is it going to take a Civil war to stop this BS?

Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s health must have taken a turn for the worse in the past week. First, target some Catholic schoolkids at the March for Life with the most heinous of lies, tarring their faith and not giving a drat about the consequences to them or their families. Second, stage a raid on Stone and invite your allies from the press to film it as though you are arresting El Chapo, instead of contacting his lawyer and telling him to present Stone at a hearing. That way, the Hillary aides and contributors on Mueller’s team get to silently tar Amy Conen Barrett, the most likely nominee to replace Ginsburg and a devout Catholic, and to tar Trump as someone who has no right to nominate a Court replacement for Ginsburg since the Justices may have to hear his impeachment appeal. It is all cooked up, just like something out of the KGB/Cheka/Stasi - no matter who gets screwed, its the protection of the Establishment that matters - in the words of VI Lenin, “you can’t make an omelet without breaking a few eggs”. If the “eggs” are some kids from out in the hinterland or someone indicted and publicly shamed over pure process crimes, well so what?

He has played the national emergency card for 5 weeks. It’s just like his threat to declassify all those documents that are still secret. All talk. Nancy and Chuck won folks, deal with it. If you think Nan and Chuck are going to negotiate on the wall keep drinking the Kool-Aid. They won this time and they will win in 3 weeks, and 6 month and 2 years. It was a nice run, but no republic last forever. In 5 years you won’t even recognize this once great country. There is already a judge ready with a restraining order in hand against using a national emergency declaration to build the wall.
I’m not going to say Trump lied about the wall. I just don’t think, as an outsider he understood how unlikely it was he could deliver. The power in this country belong to the Left and their supporters in both parties, the media and schools. That is a hard coalition to defeat.

And we have had, in 2018, a preview of the massive fraud they will employ to take every single seat won by Republicans, and if they don’t take the seat via “vote harvesting” they dem majorities will simply refuse to seat the Republican winner, citing voter fraud. Mr. Trump failed to do anything about the voter fraud before this congress was seated, and now it is too late. We have a short time left to make our souls right with God and place lives under his protection. Do not be blind about this. I do not say we should give up but recognize the battle is lost.

Are you listening to his speech? “We have no choice but to build a wall”. If no funding, “I will address this emergency”
declare a national emergency after three weeks and is strongly hinting he will. That will not be a cave, and it will be up to a conservative majority Supreme Court to decide if he acted lawfully.
You need to look beyond the issue of who is winning the day’s news cycle. The Dems win today, but I see no reason why he won’t declare a national emergency- the worst that can happen is the courts stop him, but, if that happens, he can still say he tried.
THIS IS THE NEXT STEP. NO COMPROMISE FROM THE DEMS ON A BORDR SECURITY/BARRIER SYSTEM FOR THE NEXT THREE WEEKS. THEN A POSSIBLE FURTHER SHUT DOWN AS THE SUPER BOWL IS OVER (AND THAT IS AN INDICTMENT OF JUST HOW UNSERIOUS AND SHALLOW AND FECKLESS A LOT OF THE AMERICANS THE DEMS WANT TO ‘REPLACE’ ARE)
Sorry I am not yelling. I hit the drat ‘caps lock’ key accidentally
With the SB out of the way another shutdown even longer and a clear threat of a national emergency declaration. In spite of this being within the President's powers several prog judges on the 9th Circuit or somewhere else will issue an injunction to stop this. Will the President refuse to recognize the injunction as an improper and unconstitutional infringement on executive powers and push ahead. I hope so, but the excrement will hit the fan and parts of the federal bureaucracy including parts of the military departments will either refuse to act or stall by malicious compliance tactics. The dems will certainly use these events as a basis for voting Articles of Impeachment. After that who knows other than it will be a hot summer inside the beltway with huge amounts of media screaming 24/7.

Yeah, as though day one was simply a walk-through.
Here is a street fighter with
- no legislative experience,
- little political negotiation experience pertinent to the Hill,
- a Congress that either was deceptively and flatly against his agenda or wasn't yet willing to support him in anything verging on the dramatic (i.e., RINOS),
- doubt as to who of those in the WH that he could trust were actually politically savvy
- doubt as to which of those could/would work comfortably with his style of management,
...etc., etc.
Finally, you and I have little or no idea of any larger national or global problems he may have been working on.
Try being the new guy in an unfamiliar profession who is charged with directing the labor efforts of several hundred strong-minded personnel and get back to us.

The problem is that perception is reality.
And it’s hard to come away with a different interpretation that Trump caved.
Pelosi is being praised to the gills, and not just by liberals. People like a leader, even if they don’t agree with them on issues. And Pelosi came out of this looking much more like a leader than Trump.
And it really pains me to the core to say that.

It’s not over., Next shut down will be on chcckie and nans head. Watch, they will get totally blamed for it now.
Trump can go in and honestly say he has tried everything and nothing could get by these idiots.
He can now build the wall and give up nothing to DACA or anything else. DACA kids can blame nan now and will. More votes will swing over to Trump.
I just hope he gets around to publishing all her trips expenses with her family on the taxpayers dime.

I know it's because of countless years of rightwing media conditioning, but I still can't get over, how they think Chuck & Nancy are super left wing communists.
If you sat them down and worked through it they'd probably admit they are not (but maybe they wouldn't). Dems = bad. Communists = bad. Chuck and Nancy = Dems. Therefore, Chuck and Nancy = Communists. There's no deeper thought process involved than that and whatever Rush said over the last week.
I've actually gotten a few people to back off that rhetoric by pointing out that if they were actual communists Pelosi would have had much easier time with the speakership election.

And we have had, in 2018, a preview of the massive fraud they will employ to take every single seat won by Republicans, and if they don’t take the seat via “vote harvesting” they dem majorities will simply refuse to seat the Republican winner, citing voter fraud. Mr. Trump failed to do anything about the voter fraud before this congress was seated, and now it is too late. We have a short time left to make our souls right with God and place lives under his protection. Do not be blind about this. I do not say we should give up but recognize the battle is lost. God will win the war for us, but for now, it is time to recognize the times for what they are.

We’re not the ones with veto power. Trump is. Could he have held up the tax cuts over the border wall by threatening a veto? Yes. Did he? No. Remember - the globalist wing of the GOP needs immigration restrictionists to get their agenda through.
And yet, when he had majorities in both chambers, he failed to make the wall his #1 priority. The result of Trump failing immigration patriots? He may not be re-nominated, let alone re-elected. This is why he’s flailing around with this theatrical shutdown, which will achieve nothing, because the Democrats don’t have persuadable Congressmen in the house. Whereas, for two years after his election in 2016, Trump could have at least threatened to primary any recalcitrant GOP House members the way he forced Corker and Flake out of their seats. But he never did.
I’m a results-oriented person. I judge people by their results, not by their explanations or excuses. By that measure, Trump has fallen flat on his face re immigration. He has put immigration restriction last on his list of priorities. And that will haunt him in 2020 with the voters who believed his promise to put it first.

Trump worked his rear end off to win a very tough election. The stakes couldn’t have been higher, as Hillary would have killed what is left of our Republic. Trump is as good as we will ever get. These losses and the assault on him, his friends and family must be highly demoralizing. He needs a show of support from his base.

We've been vocal and we've been supportive. This goes back to the beginning of his administration when he reluctantly signed Paul Ryan's budget which didn't address the deficit and didn't include Wall funding. He should have sent the Republicans back to include the wall and cut the deficit. He failed us when he didn't issue the EO when the House and Senate took Christmas vacation, showing they had no intention of negotiating a reasonable agreement.
We're BEGGING President Trump to get it right. The nation won't survive if he doesn't get going on border security.....there just isn't any time left. We're being over-run and the gov is being taken over by a new breed of pols that doesn't have a clue about "what could go wrong".

As far as I am concerned, we have far greater problems than the wall. The enemy is already here. Many born here but educated in the public school and college systems. The borders on all coasts have been sieves, and the democrats have taken full credit for allowing them in and then giving them sanctuary, homes, food healthcare, these people will never vote Republican. Our federal, state and local governments are laced with Obamaites from the top down. There is so much wrong with this country and I don’t ever see it ever being repaired. Sadly, with what has happened to Donald Trump, I honestly believe the war is over and what Is happening now is mopping up, indicting stragglers and burying the bodies. The real perps like Clinton are walking free and they are not even trying to hide it.

Trump was elected to stop the USA from becoming Mexico.
Instead of prioritizing that, he lets the GOPe first get their precious tax bill through. And then their failure theater on Obamacare. Then the House flips.
Nothing significant was or will be achieved regarding campaign promise numero uno. No reduction in third world legal migration. No reduction in illegal migration. No wall.
So we become Mexico.

Yeah, we'll just ignore that whole slavery thing
How does any of that poo poo thought work?
The cotton gin made cotton so much more profitable that slavery increased because of it
Blacksmiths were put out of business by automation, not cars.
Scanners didn't reduce the amount of checkers, it just changed the fact they didn't have to punch every item in manually.
How the gently caress does this moron survive?
I mean, less time per item does speed up checkout which does require fewer cashiers (which, with increased accuracy was the whole point), but your point stands.

There real reason there are only so many cashiers at chain stores is the same reason every grocery store has practically the same layout- they have been rigorously studied to maximize profit. They want you in line long enough to impulse buy stuff, either the small items lining checkout isles or by thinking “well, might as well get x while I’m here” after you see there’s a short wait, but not long enough to be annoyed enough to go elsewhere.

I haven't waited in a line at the supermarket in many years thanks to the self checkout lanes, which further optimize things by letting one cashier monitor six lanes at once.
