I think he's going to sack Rosenstein on Friday night. My spidey senses are tingling. This is where I'm at. The whole Friday Night Massacre aspect, and that there's literally NO adults in the room to tell him that he should absolutely NOT do that. Bolton will probably tell him to do it

I think you make good points.
I have always been afraid that the Dems will screw up midterms by going all in on Trump, without being able to paint a clear picture as to who they are, and their ideas to fix the country.
In spite of this though, Barack Obama is a voice that the party needs. I am certainly not saying that he needs to stump for a shit load of candidates, no. My God, there's a lot BEHIND the scenes he can do to help develop young candidates.
The guy, and his people, know a thing or two about grassroots organizing. Not having him involved at all in the midterms at this point in our history to some extent would be a gross oversight on the Dems part. Its not like he comes with the same baggage they feel HRC does. Lets be real here. Barack is a very popular politician.
Isn't that exactly what his new foundation is focusing on? I thought it was about the census

In a shocking turn of events, FB says my data wasn't compromised. Mine said it was if friends played a certain game. It also said none of my friends did, so I guess that means I'm good?

I read somewhere this morning that it was a personality quiz or something called This Is Your Digital Life, Which according to Facebook I had a friend take which then exposed my info. I guess if you haven’t heard, you’re good?

I read an interesting thing about how we've been in an extended Saturday Night Massacre since Comey was fired. IDK if I agree with it entirely but it made me realize how wild this admin has been, starting with Yates' firing a few weeks into the administration and continuing right up through now. God I remember freaking out when Sally Yates was fired. And I didn’t think it could get worse. LOL ME

I just saw a clip of SHS and legit wondered to myself “was she his only press secretary? I can’t remember if there was someone else...” I was just about to google when I remembered. There has been so much happening I completely forgot about Spicey!

There has been so much happening I completely forgot about Spicey! AND The Mooch for 10 whole minutes. I said something to someone yesterday who was here from our CO office about her (much like shes such a bad press sec) and the return was first who is that and then shes only bad if you arent conservative to which I replied no shes a condescending bitch. The reply was why are strong women always called bitch, I was she isnt a 'strong woman' shes a lying snake and then I went to taco bell. Like you didnt even KNOW who she was, dont tell me you think shes doing a GREAT job.

Reports are coming in that its Bolton pushing out Bossert. ITS ONLY HIS SECOND DAY JFC. The only thing I really remember about Bossert was that he was seemingly not terrible at press conferences. Why keep a guy like that around? Competent people are overrated.

I don't know why this is bothering me so much, but I've been thinking about this tweet all day. Is it the Hillary "stamina" insult that was thrown around? Or is it the sheer whining? Or maybe why would you take a job where you hate a major compoment of the expected work?

Remember in December when there were tons of rumors that Trump was going to fire Mueller but McGahn stormed in with his resignation letter, and Sarah screamed, "FAKE NEWS?!!!!"
Yeah. The NYT is reporting tonight, with even more sources, that that's exactly what transpired.

Just landed back in Portugal, haven't slept in 24 hours and freaked out because I get back inobile network and move on had texted and I immediately thought Mueller had been fired! Thankfully was just them asking me if I would march if it happened.
Heart attack in the making!

I know I'm a sane individual and all but I can't imagine the thought process of firing Mueller. It would look worse than bad. It would be his dumbest move so far. Like there is no other explanation for it other than obstruction.
You know, Hannity can get fucked. I'm so fucking sick of his propaganda. (That was a side note)
