There appears to be a “Deep Throat” with direct information about the actual collusion and he sang like a bird.

a big nothing burger indeed

my main concern at this point is the issue of pardons.
My hope in that regard had been that the prosecutors would find
state laws to file charges on that would be immune to the possibility-ies
of presidential pardons.

At some point however, Congress critters may wake up to what their
historic legacy could wind up being if they don't start acting on behalf
of the country first instead of the party first.

:lol: :lol:

bruh, it aint that serious. you are a solid contributor here and I especially enjoy your posts. learn from them in fact. No need to appologize to the board for calling me an azzhole. no need to appologize to me either. but i do take some slight offense to you not recognizing my true political affiliation

and hopefully for the last time:

Spoiler:
I'm an independent!!!!

Just a random observation: The reason people doubt your independence are your own words. I post on a few other boards with far right posters and to be honest, except for an issue here and there, your words sound like typical GOP talking points.


For instance, the way you use the term "far left".

You clearly don't care for the far left and yet you supported Sanders. What American politician is currently more "far left" than Sanders?

Also, a few pages ago you criticized myself and other posters for alienating those on the right with our Trump bashing.

Now that was odd.

Why would any liberal care about that in regards to Trump?

Heck, I wouldn't expect a Republican to consider my feelings when criticizing President Obama.

Really wouldn't expect an independent to care much either.

Now I WOULD expect a fellow republican/conservative to possibly feel that way.

Just something for you to ponder.


you may sense some disdain in my posts for the left and for the right because both are essentially obstructionists to each others agendas. Most americans dont follow senatorial, house, or even gubernatorial elections. they do follow presidential. for example, when Obama won, it was the basic will of the people to see Obama's camapign pledges through. Now Obama and dems dont really "run" on much these days. they dont do policy issues. they dont name names on the campaign trail. But still i despised the right for not working with Obama more to see his agenda through and I despised Obama and the left for not working with the right. and the same thing goes right now.

This past year trump won. his message resonated the most. and he named names on the campaign trail and is now attempting to see those campaign pledges through to become laws. and I just despise his own party at times for obstructing as well as the left.

so thats the source of disdain you mat sense in the "left or the right." I just dont like politicians. if you stand up before the people and make them campaign pledges and they vote for you, you win, you push like heck to get your agenda through and you compromise where need be to get it through.

otherwise the can just keeps getting kicked down the road. nothing gets done. we are at a point where id rather just see things turn to direct democracy where the people vote directly on all issues.
like i said, its a full rebuild.

Even if I want to believe #Russiagate is nothing but BS I keep coming back to this:

Members of Trump's inner circle had meeting with Russians...which isn't a crime.

So why lie about it? Repeatedly.

And when I said "Russians"...some of whom were intelligence agents (or connected).

Here is a link to the timeline from Seth (click on photo), these people are ALL going down. Papadopoulos will be able to testify to the collusion, but Mueller will need a few more to flip otherwise the others will stick to lying.

I agree with the first part but disagree with the second part. These two statements are subtly very different.

This is why Fox News is a complete joke and should never be put on the same level as other news outlets.

That's because they have literally been brainwashed by right wing media and special interests. I don't say this lightly or in a joking way either. Read this link it explains alot:

I really hope that Pence, Ryan and Mcconnell get wrapped up on this as well. I want to see those **** go down because there's no way that they weren't aware of what was going on.

You know, there *is* a block function. You are in control of what you read in this thread, no one else.

Good advice for life in general.
