Probably because Mattis was memified and if there's anything Donnie hates it's having to read and perform critical thinking. In that particular case it worked out but in others like Clarke and Sheriff Joe idiots like Donnie are more than willing to take their branding at face value.

Anecdotally, I'm starting to see a lot more such TVs with either CNN or MSNBC on. Or waiting areas with multiple TVs have a mix of Fox and CNN/MSNBC. Or they just say "gently caress it" and put on ESPN.

Mueller got briefed on the Comey memos.

http://www.cnn.com/2017/05/22/politics/mueller-comey-russia-investigation/index.html

Donnie is close to naming a legal team, and of all people, he wants to bring in Corey Lewandowski and David Bossie, campaign people, to run a crisis shop.

http://www.politico.com/story/2017/05/22/trump-crisis-bossie-lewandowski-238689

Comey postponed Wednesday testimony to Chaffetz's House Oversight Committee because he wants to talk to Mueller first. No change to the big one, Senate Intel, likely next week or in two weeks.

The poo poo I don't get is why in the gently caress is the US allies with the House of Saud instead of Iran? Like, why in the gently caress would you become buddies with arguably the worst bunch of fuckheads in the gulf and burn your bridges with Iran? There's a lot of poo poo the US can do and could have done to normalize relations with Iran but lmao no we're gonna stick with the Sauds even though their ogliarchs have kicked off most of the islamic terrorist groups in existence.
Caveats included the past two election cycles have proven that Iran has a lot more chance of changing than Saudi Arabia will barring something incredibly drastic. 2009 too if the Imams hadn't interfered. Behind a lot of government window dressing your average Iranian is sick of the bullshit and wants better. What they want doesn't entirely align with our interests but far more than with the Sauds.

The Saudis will never want change because they have such strong cultural control.
Iranians can remember before things got super hosed up, the Saudis don't have that benefit. Just for fun here's an example of the kind of pop music that was popular in pre-revolution Iran. It's a Dolly Parton cover.

In regards to the CIA losing a bunch of China operatives, do the spooks have to go through OPM with a regular SF86? Wasn't it around 2010ish that OPM discovered they had a huge problem?
I imagine there's a completely different process for them for just such an occurence. Or maybe not since this is the worst timeline.

What happens if we reach the point where a sane president and their staff is unable to undo the damage from Trump?
I think our biggest advantage is that people in other countries realize that Trump is despised by more than half of the voting population. This isn't like Iraq where people were still behind Bush or the idea that they were supporting the troops. If we had a repeat of 9/11 tomorrow I doubt any significant portion of Donnie's critics would get behind him because he's an idiot and the worst possible person to handle any scale of crisis.

Ourside of starting a war more unjustified than Iraq I don't see any dipolomatic damage that can't be largely mitigated over 8 years of repair.

Everything is "historic", and they're always focusing on his "legacy". Unfortunately for them that's already in the trash heap.
