Perhaps less bombshells will occur even as badgering by Rubio and Cotton will try to trip Comey up.

It’s might be harder to prove the cover-up if it’s not run on public property, so Trump won’t be relocating his #TrumpRussia “war-room” from the White House to Qatar.

More interesting is how recent this blownwhistle may have occurred … within the last month, but more importantly it signals how much information was known in 2016 and how much information is available at the NSA.

Whenever Carter Page appears for interview he is nervous and grinning like a drug mule trying to reduce his sentence. He certainly does not look like a criminal master mind and one can be forgiven for a moment to think that he is there in public for...

The third Menendez brother sits at his Oval desk/throne and signs another proclamation. This weak attempt to remind us of Reagan’s screwing the ATC union is also another GOP meme of privatizing everything … toll roads and pay toilets.

Republicans declare war on the media for 2018. Because declaring war on facts doesn't sound so good. Donald Trump has pushed the media to shake up its long-standing routine of reporting whatever Republicans say in news stories and intermittently calling out their lies in fact-checks. Now, Trump’s constant stream of blatant lies sometimes gets called...

The weirdest, dumbest and most negligent thing among the press today is to ask and re-ask whether Trump believes in climate change science . . . . and, worse, characterize it as an on-going “secret.
