When Mueller does his final report, will he be covering all of his conflicts of interest in a preamble, will he be recommending action on all of the crimes of many kinds from those on the other side(whatever happened to Podesta?), and will he be putting in statements from.....

....hundreds of people closely involved with my campaign who never met, saw or spoke to a Russian during this period? So many campaign workers, people inside from the beginning, ask me why they have not been called (they want to be). There was NO Collusion & Mueller knows it!

At her concession speech, Love recalled that Trump had attacked her for a lack of loyalty to him following the November midterms.
Mia Love gave me no love, Trump complained at the time.
What did he have to gain by saying such a thing about a fellow Republican? Love told a crowd of supporters on Monday. Mr. President, well have to chat about that. However, this gave me a clear vision of his world as it is. No real relationship just convenient transactions. That is an insufficient way to implement sincere service and policy.
This election experience and these comments [from Trump] shines a spotlight on the problems Washington politicians have with minorities and black Americans, Love continued. Its transactional. Its not personal. Politicians claim they know whats best for us from a safe distance. Yet, they are never willing to take us home.
Because Republicans never take minorities communities into their home and citizens into their homes and into their hearts, they stay with Democrats and bureaucrats in Washington because they do take them home, she added. Ive seen the cost to conservatives for not truly taking people into their hearts. Democrats saw newly-elected black members and women to Congress in this election. This is a matter of fact that Republicans lost in this regard.

Trump's Personal Aide Karem Is Said to Intend to Resign Post

https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-11-26/trump-s-personal-aide-karem-is-said-to-intend-to-resign-post
President Donald Trump is losing his personal aide, Jordan Karem, who plans to resign after less than a year on the job, according to people familiar with the matter.
Karem serves as Trumps so-called bodyman, an aide who accompanies the president on travel and looks after his personal needs. Hes also a Trump confidant, familiar with his moods and thinking. The president relies on him for advice and to relay messages between Trumps advisers inside and outside the White House, the people said.
Karem is often the first aide Trump sees in the morning and the last to see him at night. He joined the Trump campaign in July 2015 as an advance staffer before becoming press director for then-vice presidential candidate Mike Pence. He became Trumps personal aide in March.
TRAGIC! Trump's personal aide bails after less than a year. Who shall wipe his majesty's bottom now?

Democrats Learn a Big Lesson for 2020 Vote About Taking on Trump
Democrats Learn a Big Lesson for 2020 Vote About Taking on Trump
https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-11-26/democrats-learn-a-big-lesson-for-2020-vote-about-taking-on-trump
The lesson for 2020 is that when he does and says outrageous things, assume that its on purpose and remember that you dont need to fight every battle that he chooses, said former Clinton campaign spokesman Brian Fallon. In 2016, we thought a lot of the fights he selected for himself were so obviously disqualifying that we were happy to lean into them and indulge some of the controversies he stoked.
We underestimated how much turnout he was able to generate in white rural areas by having extended fights on the issues he wanted, Fallon said. In the midterms, though, people didnt give in to the conversation about the caravan. Democrats successfully sidestepped Trumps attempts to make that the all-consuming issue.
The uncomfortable lesson for Democratic strategists is that large areas of the country embrace Trumps bluster and nationalist message centered on fears of illegal immigration, crime and globalization.
Engaging with him on those terms, they say, merely helps that message break through to rural and working-class white voters -- and prevents Democrats from reaching the more diverse and less-frequent voters they rely on.

SiriusXM experts...please explain the cheapest / easiest way to listen in my home, not my car.
I've been thinking about a Roku stick...I know I can access it that way, but I'm not sure I want to listen to it on the TV.
I am a 100% novice in the ways of Alexa and Echo Dots, and don't want to invest a small fortune in them. All I know about this "phenomenon" is the name, nothing else.
I am not an "audiophile"...I currently don't have a stereo system. My "stereo" is my laptop, attached to some reasonably nice Altec Lansing speakers with a sub-woofer.
I just want to listen with the minimum of expense and equipment and hassle, so if you are a SiriusXM user, your thoughts would be appreciated.

The Canadian pop singer, 24, who married model Hailey Baldwin in a hush-hush civil ceremony in September, told his 102 million Instagram followers that Thursdays U.S. Thanksgiving holiday was the first he had hosted.
First thanksgiving as a married man, first time hosting thanksgiving, Bieber wrote in a posting on Friday.
Relationships are hard and love isnt always easy but thank you Jesus for showing me how! Every day is a learning process, trying to be more like him, patient, kind, selfless, boy I got a long way! But gods grace is sufficient! he added.
Bieber and Baldwin both attend the evangelical Hillsong Church, which was founded in Australia in 1983 and now has branches worldwide with a big youth following.

Mexico should move the flag waving Migrants, many of whom are stone cold criminals, back to their countries. Do it by plane, do it by bus, do it anyway you want, but they are NOT coming into the U.S.A. We will close the Border permanently if need be. Congress, fund the WALL!
