Look closely at the phone Tom Selleck is using. It appears that it is a regular old land line handset but it ain't connected to anything!
It isn't a cell phone. Fitting selection of a photo-old technology and useless too.

...since according to Hollywood conservatives the reason they don't get more work is that the evil, eeeeevil libruls won't hire them for ideological reasons.


Which is funny in its own way, because in Conservative Paradise blackballing anyone you want for any reason you want is fair game, a prerogative that comes with power, and if you don't like it, sucks for you.

the "Bowling Green Massacre."

Kellyanne Conway should be subpoenaed to tell congress the truth about this wire-tapping/Bowling Green conspiracy. Not to mention, what does Donald Trump know and when did he know it?

"I have people that have been studying it and they cannot believe what they're finding," Trump said an interview that aired Thursday Morning.

Asked if he has assigned people specifically to search in Hawaii, Trump said, "Absolutely."

That would be about a different sort of dysfunction, I'd think, and possibly more likely.

about your wire tapping scheme..

When you and your lackey's from all appearances committed treason, you really are a wet paper f***ing bag, and really need to put one over your face, you really are full of BS, time again for the infamous BS meter.

Just like your f***ing "birther " investigation, not this time ass****


Here take you one you treasonous fascist

Making wild accusations without evidence is, in fact, McCarthyism, although McCarthy at least pretended to have evidence. ("I have in my hand 57 cases of individuals who would appear to be either card-carrying members or certainly loyal to the Communist Party...&quot

I wonder if Trump knows that McCarthy was a Republican.

Hallucinogenics anyone ?

(PS -saw Selleck a couple of weeks ago on the view -I don't think he's a Trump fan - seemed to be put off by Trump- I was happily surprised. )
