Steve Scalise took to the baseball diamond this morning for practice. That's a remarkable recovery in just a year. This makes my heart happy.

Bringing a little pettiness to your morning: What's really amazing is that she wasn't fired for the comment about McCain. She was fired for being mean to Mercedes Schlapp.

McConnell's decision to cancel the August recess keeps 10 Democratic senators in DC instead of going back home to campaign:
I really can't stand him.

Someone on Twitter suggested McConnell's choice was possibly to defend against Trump firing Sessions and making a recess appointment. Perhaps that reasoning is too generous to McConnell. McConnell's decision to cancel the August recess keeps 10 Democratic senators in DC instead of going back home to campaign: I really can't stand him.

He might be higher up on my shitlist than the orange one. Apologies to turtles. I'm glad to see others coming to my bench. I hate him more than anyone except one person and that person isn't POTUS. 45 is dangerous in that he is stupid and no one seems to be telling him his whims are not genius. McConnell, though, knows how to play the damn game along with being a heartless jackass. He's up for reelection in 2020 and sadly, if he runs, I can see Kentucky sending him back to DC.

VA ladies, there is a new law taking effect July 1 that allows elementary schools to count recess towards instructional hours, basically allowing about twice as much recess per day as is currently given (at least based on current NOVA recess allotments). It is up to each school board to determine the amount of recess given. Our PTA was asking for parents to write to the school board to ask for almost the maximum increase in recess time per day, basically going from 20 minutes to 40 minutes. Something to consider writing to your school board about! ETA some legislation info morerecessforvirginians.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/04/VA-Recess-Bill-Explanation.pdf

Paul Ryan stood up for the FBI today saying that they did nothing wrong by sending a CI into Trump's campaign.
He also made it clear that POTUS shouldn't even consider pardoning himself.

I want to think he said it because it's the right thing to do. The cynical side of me thinks he's worried about GOP chances in the midterms in purple-ish districts.

I'm rubbing my hands together with glee***. I knew she wasn't innocent in all this, no matter how much she pretends to be. ***And by glee, I don't mean that these assholes sold our country for power and to increase their own coffers, but that since they did, they might all go down for it.

When 45 complains that Germany wont buy our cars but Germany has its own luxury. Its not that they wont buy our goods they dont need to
K: I dont agree, we need reciprocity. WE have the lowest ave tariff rate in the world, much lower than our 'competitors'

AYFKM?!
Trump accuses Canada of burning down the White House. Of course, that was Britain. In 1812.
EVEN IF that's a joke, wtf? This was a serious call with one of our closest allies. Stop trying to perform for the cameras and actually do your goddamn job.

These emails *could* implicate @ivankatrump in the following felonies: A. Conspiracy to bribe/attempted bribery, if Trump Tower Moscow deal was part of sanctions quid pro quo. B. Conspiracy against the United States, 18 U.S.C. 371, under Hammerschmidt. See Gates plea. @rdeliason

His lawyers aren’t trying to fuck around with his plea deal. In a joint statement, Papadopoulos’s lawyers Thomas Breen and Robert Stanley said: “The most accurate account of Mr. Papadopoulos’ plea agreement and plea of guilty is contained in the publicly filed court records and the transcript of Mr. Papadopoulos’ guilty plea.”
