Barr: No evidence of fraud that'd change election outcome

Source: Politico

Attorney General William Barr said Tuesday the Justice Department has not uncovered evidence of widespread voter fraud that would change the outcome of the 2020 presidential election.

His comments come despite President Donald Trump’s repeated claims that the election was stolen, and his refusal to concede his loss to President-Elect Joe Biden.

I think Barr is trying to clean up how he will appear in history. He's going to be out of a job come January, so he has nothing to lose by telling the truth now. Nevertheless, I believe he will go down as one of the most corrupt attorney generals we have ever had.

Trump trashes CDC school-reopening guidelines -- then CDC updates them

I don't understand...I just don't understand the power this guy has not only over people but entire organizations! Who will stand for the citizens of America?

(CNN)After President Donald Trump tweeted Wednesday that he disagreed with US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention guidelines for safely reopening schools because they are "very tough" and "expensive," the agency said it would issue new recommendations next week.

The move came as the Trump administration makes a concerted push for schools to reopen by the fall, even as cases surge in some parts of the country.

I guess I don't understand the impeachment process

If impeachment doesn't come with removal, and it is the senate who has to vote to remove a president, why are the republicans all in an uproar about this? Just let the process continue and don't vote to remove. Is that the way it works?

President Clinton was impeached and stayed in office because of the senate.

So I don't understand all this hand-wringing, and Faux News trashing American heroes who tell the truth. The real future of #45 is in the hands of the republicans, right?

Thanks for any enlightenment you can provide.

Stormy Daniels Offers to Return $130K

Her attorney said in return the "agreement" would be null and void.

This is what it means to be between a rock and a hard place. If Trump's attorney accepts, Daniels will be free to sing like a mocking bird. If he rejects it, then that says he was complicit in the agreement.

Trump embodies every one of the Seven Deadly Sins

Vainglory/Pride

Trump’s ego drives him. Donald Trump has been consistently inconsistent when it comes to policy ideas, but his commitment to Donald Trump is absolute.

Vainglory derailed his agenda with distractions and defeats. He made the Boy Scouts speech about himself, rather than about serving others. He couldn’t handle the slight from Alaska Sen. Lisa Murkowski’s vote against the GOP health bill, so he threatened all of Alaska — thereby cementing her fateful opposition. And he held a rally in Ohio — not to build support for a vote he already had or to make the case for a policy agenda — but because he can only recharge with the adoration of a cheering crowd. Then, he left the chanting multitudes and tweeted about crowd size — the 252nd time he has done so. (For comparison, he’s tweeted 36 times about Afghanistan). Governing is about others, but Trump hasn’t been able to bury his pride.

As Congress touts spending deal, Trump calls for shutdown

https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2017/05/02/congress-touts-spending-deal-trump-calls-shutdown/101191806/

Lawmakers in both parties celebrated reaching a spending deal that would avoid a government shutdown this week, but President Trump took to Twitter on Tuesday morning to argue that the country "needs a good shutdown" to fix Senate rules that require him to negotiate with Democrats.


Trump says in a tweet that the rules need to be changed to 51% majority vote instead of 60%, that way Republicans will not have to depend on Democrats to get things done. He's mad because the money he wanted for "the wall" was not included in the budget.

I don't know how much more of this man his non-supporters (of which I am one) can take. He has got to be the most ignorant man to ever "serve" as president. He doesn't even know basic American history. He is the biggest liar I've ever seen. At the last rally, he touted all the things he'd accomplished in his first 100 days. All a lie and they ate it up! They KNEW he was lying but kept feeding the beast with applause and adulation anyway.

I pray he doesn't bring this country to ruin in his quest to obliterate the legacy of the Obamas and to further his own personal agenda. Why can't the Deplorables see what we can see so plainly? He doesn't care about us - America. It's his fragile ego that's controlling him. It's all about him and what he wants, not what America needs. Why can't people see this? I just don't understand. Can somebody please help me to understand what they love about this creature.

Trump believes Susan Rice committed crime, declines to provide evidence

Source: USA Today

WASHINGTON — President Trump on Wednesday floated the possibility that former national security adviser Susan Rice committed a crime, but he provided no evidence.

He told the New York Times that it was “going to be the biggest story” and said he would explain further “at the right time.”

Why do they even publish his garbage when he has nothing to back it up with. They should be used to this by now. All he's trying to do is throw journalists off the Russia scent. They take the bait every, single time!

Obama Officials Made List of Russia Probe Documents To Keep Them Safe

Source: NBC News

Obama administration officials were so concerned about what would happen to key classified documents related to the Russia probe once President Trump took office that they created a list of document serial numbers to give to senior members of the Senate Intelligence Committee, a former Obama official told NBC News.

If I read this right, the "list" with the serial numbers was given to the Senate Intelligence Committee, not the documents themselves. If true, then when the committee request documents and documents from the "list" are not there...BOOM!
