A true American Hero and Patriot.... exactly the opposite of Trader Trump, who's own Aides testified to his crimes by the dozens in this investigation as in the Impeachment Investigation.

But I'm betting there's even more crimes here than those in that report.

Traitor NOT Trader. I wouldn't trade ANYTHING with Trump. Just sayin

I blame my Editor.

And the Drudge Wheel Operating System Hamster... aka DWOSH. They have always hated me.

He's trading away our nation for a seat on Putin's lap.

I hope Trump's media writer is ready for another hysterical lie-filled early morning post fest from the Orange Criminal... he's gotta be livid that he can't now Fire Smith.
You know, like on his TV show.

I always like reading BFreaking News.

Really brings the freak out of me.

Biden should pre-emptively Pardon Smith and a 1000 or so others. At least 1000. Maybe millions.

#6 Ask Corky about the DR hamster.

"Trump pleaded not guilty in 2023 to 40 criminal counts related to his handling of classified materials after leaving the White House, after prosecutors said he repeatedly refused to return hundreds of documents containing classified information and took steps to thwart the government's efforts to get the documents back."

You should look up JPW more often. The ---- he's said around here looks like you and him together would land you two in the emergency room.

I mean, your mom and the cucumber was sad, but damn.

Pardons are only for people who admit that they committed crimes. I wouldn't accept one. A better tack would be to simply identify everyone he wants to protect from the impending clown show of Kash Patel (or whomever) as working closely with him on official acts. Roberts said that is immune from prosecution.

Anyone else getting the nagging suspicion that Trump just clumsily drove home the reality of how obscene money can completely trump justice now? Pun intended.The man lives in a house made of playing cards, each a lie told ad nauseum until it became "true." I also keep entertaining the eventuality the cheese completely slips off his diaper-wearing cracker long before his term is up, given his bizarre pontifications spewed just over this past week.

Might happen before it starts.

Trump DOES have a history of being his own worst enemy.

It wouldn't be unusual for him to blow himself out of proportion and self-destruct.

Political hacks and DOJ don't mix except when radical Ds are in charge. Then they will use political attack dogs like Jack Smith and corrupt lawfare to go after their political opposition.

Democrats are on their way out as a viable party as every entity they rule fails. They are schemers who use rheir cousins in legacy media to cover up and gain crony power and spoils for the "family". No better example exists than the failure of California.

Robson is still oblivious to the fact that almost all of the people who testified against Trump in all his cases ARE TRUMP Loyaltists.

All long time Aides and Employees who witnessed and or participated in his crimes in both the Insurrection and Documents Theft cases.

Guess they must all be Dem Crisis Actors, eh?

Donald is a criminal, ROBSON. He's been one for all of his sorry life; and for all of your sorrier one.

ROBSON isn't oblivious. ROBSON is perverse.

California is not "failing".

In fact this may have the weird effect of goosing the economy.

There was a lot of wealthy people living in those areas.

All that stuff has to be replaced and rebuilt now.

Here's hoping that really pisses you off.

"There was a lot of wealthy people living in those areas.

interesting choice of words......"HAS to be replaced and rebuilt now".

It's an automatic acceptance that they HAVE to re-create the same exposure that was in the path of this horrible fire which they KNOW has a high probability of occurring again and again......

and why? because the wealthy people should get what they want.

MAGA filth need to tell themselves lies to justify their hatred for others

"It's an automatic acceptance that they HAVE to re-create the same exposure that was in the path of this horrible fire which they KNOW has a high probability of occurring again and again......"

It's great that you assume that all people are idiots like you.

When I say they HAVE to be replaced I mean they will all need a place to live. They will need new cars clothes refrigerators washers and dryers and food. Etc. And not necessarily in the same places they were before. Though I would bet many will just rebuild.

If they recreate the exact same exposure in the exact same places then they are truly fools. But I would rather hope that they learn some lessons and apply them when rebuilding than hope they will be stupid enough to set themselves up to go through it all over again someday. You know. Like they do in Florida.

I believe it's called capitalism?

What good is all that money if you can't buy stuff you want with it?

What bothers me is that if THEY can't be safe with all that money what chance do you or I have if things go badly where we are?
