The warning not to attack any NATO countries would not have been necessary if Trump hadn't shown such contempt for NATO suggesting to Russia that the US was not 100% in lock step with its allies. Trump and his the people around him are such shallow thinkers. Its as if they act on impulse without giving any thought to 2nd and 3rd order effects of their actions.

He didn't have a choice. He was in a war that he couldn't win and therefore had to "declare" victory. His next move is to escort a few ships through the strait but to eventually withdraw allowing Iran and Oman to collect tolls all the while continuing to declare "mission accomplished". Enough of the faithful will believe him so satisfy his ego.

I hope all of those files have been digitized and the server(s) they are stored on backed up frequently. That will make it a bit more difficult for Trump to cart them away when his term ends.

Its the spending, anyone with half a brain can tell you that.

Spending is only half the problem. The other half is revenue; something conservatives don't want to discuss!

I heard some of the Q&A with Blanche this journalist failed in the response to his answer. It's as if the journalist was provided with a list of questions and was determined to get through the list without digesting the implications of the response. In this regard, the journalist is acting like a reporter. Journalists need to be more lawyerly when questioning members of the Trump administration. Not only must they anticipate a hostile "witness" they must be prepared with incite full follow up questions. In this case, then Blanche said that he can't proclaim that he would be independent of the president because the president may propose that he prosecute criminals and by being independent, he (Blanche) would not be upholding his oath of office. The immediate follow up should have been to site the failed prosecutions of Trump's political enemies, the former Olympian accused of vandalism, etc. Blanche should have also been queried as to whether or not the DOJ has a review process to determine if a person should be prosecuted (which of course they do) and to follow up with a question as to whether or not Trump's political enemies were subjected to the same process.

Journalists doing these interviews need to "game out" the various questions and responses so that they are better prepared to deal with the "to clever by half" lawyers for the Trump administration.

Both these women belong in prison along with their boss.

Has either Bondi or Pirro done anything criminal yet? If not, they don't have to worry about kissing Trump's behind to get a pardon. If they have, they've got to go all in on EVERYTHING he tells them to do to preserve their chance at getting a pardon.

Trump is a pathological liar and fraudster. I trust Iran and lot further than I do Trump.

Amen!

Why would ANYBODY but an ignorant fool believe ANYTHING that Trump has to say!!!

ICE Will Not Reveal Body-camera Footage Unless in Agency's 'best interests'

As long as the video exists, the courts will be able to gain access.

He was told that demographers have predicted that within about twenty years we whites will no longer be in the majority, and that is intolerable for a racist like Donald Trump.

Although not the topic of this page, that way of thinking is also behind the movement to get American women to have more babies!

You wished the ills and harms off on others and surprise, surprise, NOT, It landed on you as well,

That's the point that ALWAYS gets overlooked in these interviews! The interviewer NEVER asks the interviewee why they are surprised that they are personally feeling the pain of Trump's policies when he told them IN ADVANCE what he was going to do!

Also, these middle class people feeling emboldened by the trajectory of their 401Ks that think they are immune? Just wait until their loved one has to be hospitalized or placed in a rehab/nursing home! What those 401Ks disappear as they try to find and pay someone to care for their loved ones. A lot of immigrants were employed in those fields and with them being deported, who is going to take those jobs?

You do not hand them their favorite poison and look away.

Of course you do; well maybe not look away. If someone wants to use drugs, that's their decision. If they can't pay for it, society should provide it FREE if it will prevent them from having to rob, steal, assault or even kill someone to get money to pay for it. FURTHERMORE, giving that sh.. away will rob the gangs, mobsters, etc. of their primary source of income. Let them look for some other method of "earning" money.

Trump Wants the Power to Stop Public from Suing Polluters

Even more reason for the next democratic government to act very aggressively when it comes to polluters. Get them to pay up/fix up before a succeeding republican government can come in and stall the pay up/fix up effort.

President Trump on Wednesday filed an emergency motion to stop the British Broadcasting Corporation from gaining broad access to intimate details about his finances

How could his legal team not advised him that this was likely to happen? Or did he say: "To hell with it, I am going to do it anyway. If necessary, I know that I can appeal and my buddies in the SCOTUS will take care of me."

Let the suit go forward. Force the Trumps to defend their business practices as per the claim of money laundering.

Then let them defend themselves.

EXACTLY!!!. It might help them realize that a two state solution is better than annihilation.

US support has emboldened and enabled Israeli aggression since its founding.

America's unwavering support of Israel has emboldened and enabled them to take the aggressive actions that they have taken. Had not America been so willing to write them a blank check, they may have been able to make peace with their neighbors.
