Is someone in the FBI feeling leaky in the wake of the shutdown? Is that what's happening? I think the NYT story leaked from Congress. That one you posted seems to be from people Trump has fired or still work for him. Eta, wait that article you posted is from 2017

I really want to see Stacey Abrams succeed in public office. I think she would have a good shot in the Senate race IF she gets a fair election process. I'd also like to see Andrew Gillum be successful. He has a lot of good ideas and positive energy.

I shouted "JFC! Again?!" Headline is from 2017. He's still a fucking dumbass for that, though. ETA: I didn't mean to sound snarky towards you. I really did read the headline, yell, and then click on the link before seeing the dateline.

I don't want to further devolve the FFFC so I'll say this here: I can completely understand that this is a challenging time for Conservatives bc of Trump. My question is, "What are you doing about it?" The so called big C Conservatives on the Hill have completely capitulated to Trump and Trumpian politics. Plenty of other big C Conservatives have spoken out against Trumpism and all its trimmings and I don't think anyone is shouting their heads off. The problem isn't with conservatives or conservative principles, it's with the modern Republican party. I had to read the entire fffc to figure this out. I live in conservative wet dreamland and there are a lot of conservatives who despise and denounce 45 on the regular. So I’m not out biting heads off because you are a republican. However if you can support putting kids in cages, taking away basic human rights because of who you love or the gender you identify with, or the color of your skin, we don’t have a difference of opinion we have a difference of morality and I WILL call it out loudly. And I don’t care if you support the current administration or have a bronze statue of Obama in your front yard. So the whole conservatives are afraid to speak up doesn’t hold water for me.

In May? Yes, we appropriately shrieked about it. Then McMaster trotted out to the Elipse snd insisted it was all fine bc sources and methods weren't compromised (which they were) and we all gave a full J Law "OKAY " and mourned our respect for McMaster. You were there, it's just all blurred in the epic 2 year shitshow

Actually this is interesting. This bombshell story weakens the President in the midst of a national crisis of his own doing. Strategic leaking, Mr Baker et al?

I can't see how anyone is blaming this shutdown on Democrats. The Republicans had control for two years under Trump and still never managed to get the wall going. I love Ted Lieu.

I liked Soledad's response: That whole thing with the dumbass SNL guy has made Crenshaw kind of untouchable with the media IMO. He handled it well but it’s completely unfair when it’s open season on the freshmen Dem House WOC members.

The tax cuts suck and are stupid, but we did squeak out of a GOP House, Senate and WH without some of the worst case scenarios.

Just waiting on a Bezos divorce tweet. Did you see his quote about it when someone asked him about it? He said it’s going to be a “thing of great beauty”
