The Loofah-Faced Shit Gibbon (LFSG) is upset because, when discussing illegal activities, he partner-in-crime decided if the shit hit the fan, the partner wouldn’t take the fall for the LFSG. I guess he isn’t the “Don” the LFSG thinks he is. Or maybe he is…the mob has had many, many high ranking turncoats.

And now for the part that really bothers Trump, because he doesn’t give a fuck about Cohen either — Meuller has all the tapes Cohen had. Who knows how many ,and what is on them, and who else they might implicate.

Oh, there are tapes. It’s just that Mueller can’t issue a subpoena on Putin that has any teeth.

What if Putin, wanting to “stir the gumbo”, contacted Mueller and asked if he’d like copies of some interesting tapes?

We’re living in interesting times, who knows what’ll happen?

The agreement is not for the countries to spend 2% of their GDP on defense now. The agreement is that the countries would work on ramping up their defense budgets and reach 2% by 2024. Which they are doing.

The fact is, Putin does not want NATO. Since Traitor Trump is Putin’s flunky, it’s now his job to dismantle it, any way he can and facts/truth be damned.

According to Donny Jr. and Eric, a couple of billion in “loans” and a loose line of credit. I’m not sure the idiots in waiting read the fine print in their agreements.

This is Mike Pence, not Trump, but he’s been tweeting the glorious the numbers of people who have gotten pay raises since the Republican tax cut. For example, he said that 73,000 Pennsylvanians have gotten raises since the cut. Joel Berenson, former Hillary and Obama pollster, is following along behind him, pointing out, for example, that 73,000 Pennsylvania workers represents 1.2% of the entire Pennsylvania work force.

I’ll bet 25,000 of those workers are blue and white collar employees of the city of Philadelphia, who both just got new contracts.

On a related note, I wonder how many of the pay raises being hosanna’d from the mountain tops are annual raises that are part of contracts negotiated by the unions which TrumPence _et. al._ are trying to destroy?

My sister and her man friend live in PA and are self-employed. I’ll have to remember to ask them whether they’ve given themselves a raise this year.

No, I wonder what the price tag was for the Republicans who support Trump. Is there _kompromat_ on them as well? Or do they just want to accept Russian FSB money laundered through the NRA and other conservative organizations?
