OMG. I was just raging by myself over on the Week of Oct 23 thread, wondering where the hell you all were and why you weren't losing your minds online with me. Of course there is a new thread that is already 4 pages long.

Eta- the case was just unsealed. Happened Oct 5. Thoughts are he took a deal.
Assumed he is in custody, but not confirmed.

Ohhhh Jeffery Toobin (not Shimon) on CNN is saying Gates has tremendous incentive to flip and cooperate.

So... their defense is "We hired shitty people, not our fault"? "We have terrible judgment and don't mind associating with criminals once in awhile when they're useful" does not seem like a good defense.

Here's my thing, sorry for word vomit. I am laughing so hard at the defense of Trump on Fox and social media, and the WH. Oh, it has nothing to do with Trump you say? Okay, maybe today it directly doesn't. But you know what? It still shows the absolute gross incompetence this man has to lead a campaign, let alone a country. JFC your campaign was RUN BY A CRIMINAL. THIS HAPPENED ON YOUR WATCH. YOU SUCK AT YOUR JOB. GET A FUCKING CLUE YOU MONUMENTAL ASS CLOWN.

Well, we weren't. At least we have that going for us? We knew he was bad news bears from the get go. But people will still defend this shit.

There goes Fox News' talking point that the charges had nothing to do with collusion. Holy balls.

Yup, the defense is "They were bad before we hired them." Moron.

But I will be like "Oh, honey, let me tell you of the resistance..." And he'll be like, "Moooom, I knooow. Your protest posters were framed all over the house. I don't need this story again."
