"My guess is a heartfelt apology is in Mitch's future. "

He can't do that. He's already on thin ice with Trump.

Trump has already called for a boycott of dozens of corporations, with about 200 more on the way as his enemy list grows.

This is Trump's war. McConnell has decisions to make.

SPEAKS

"Why are terrorist insurrectionists going unprosecuted in congress?"

All in good time. Trust President Biden to work it all to his advantage. At the moment Biden's political capital is being used for more pressing issues.

BTW, how do you know the DOJ isn't building their cases as we speak, in preparation for 2022 and 2024? Just because you don't see it, doesn't mean it isn't happening. The best way to get them out is bullet proof evidence when they try to run for office again.

If Weissenberg has a funded pension plan with Trump Org. I suggest he retire now before the Manhattan DA gobbles everything up.

And why not? Trump used him like a rented mule. His pension is the least he can expect once he gets on Trump's enemy list for testifying.

Now who would ever thought that telling your primary source of income that they're irrelevant would come to this? ~~ LOL

Let them wear out their own shoe leather. Their glorious orange leader has lost his bully pulpit.

Political cartoons are starting to portray Trump in a polka-dot suit and a big red clown nose.

Not withstanding the fact, of course, that Boehner himself was one of the early enablers of what later became known as 'political terrorism' out of fear of losing his job as Speaker.

He speaks the truth now but sadly, his words are a "day late and a dollar short."

Compared to Nancy Pelosi, John Boehner is the Mr. Milquetoast of House Speakers.

Naw, I think he'll spill his guts. At age 73, who would want to die in prison?

It's very unusual for a lawyer to undermine his client's case, even after the fact. Maybe Trump never paid him.

"I have no doubt that Amazon data centers have better physical security than the Capitol did on 1/6."

I should hope so. Jeff Bezos knows from years of Trump's harassment to watch his back.

Trump may not be president any more but he still has the knives out.

I'm sure Trump begged Mr. Putin for another chance. If he fails again, prison may be safer for him than Mar-a-Lago.

With all of Trump's court cases relegated to a dumpster, all the way up to the Supreme Court (which Trump calls traitors), there's little left for these ne'r-do-wells to do to show their support. I'm not surprised one of Trump's arch enemies, Jeff Bezos, owner of both Amazon and the Washington Post, was a coded target in many of the right wing extremists publications who dote on Trump's every wish.

Re: #2

Opps, sorry. My fault. Wrong link.

What ever happened to this:

I agree with GAL

Trump was at the end of his rope and Martial Law (suspending the Constitution) was his only option even if he had to murder everybody who stood in his way.

I've often wondered ~ is Trump really that demented? Or was he more afraid of what Vladimir Putin would do to him for failure to open the pathway through Ukraine that Putin needed for Russia's expansion. Keep in mind, Putin voted himself to stay in office until 2036 just for that very purpose. It was his top priority. It was his claim to fame and glory.

I'm thinking that's the only reason behind Trump's desperation to get back in power. He's terrified of Vladimir Putin ~~ who is renowned for settling his grievances in the most unpleasant ways.

"Prerak Shah, the acting U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of Texas"

I suspect Shah going to face some serious headwinds from Governor Greg Abbott(R) if the FBI tries to put one of their Texas homeboys behind bars.

Trump put a bullseye target on Pence because Pence refused to scuttle the confirmation. I truly believe Trump wanted him killed.

That's the kind of criminal entitlement mentality that permeated the Trump administration. He was willing to kill the Vice President in a fit of revenge. There aren't any words disgusting enough to spell it out.

I would've loved to be a fly on the wall the next time the two of them met face to face.

NIXON

By "cut" I think we all know that means feather their own nest at taxpayer expense just like Donald Trump was doing.

Secede to where? A no-man's land of empty space and armadillos?

Wait ~ maybe they can apply for foreign aid.

DANNI

I'm not sure who owns whom. There was a lot of reciprocity going on, especially about that Ukraine business.

I've always felt Mr. Putin was holding something over Trump's head ~~ and NOT the pee tapes with prostitutes in a Moscow hotel room. That would barely make a ripple among Trump supporters.

There has to be something worse that would ruin Trump financially because money is all he cares about.

I know it sounds unlikely but Mr. Putin could have copies of Trump's tax returns ~ maybe as a pre-requisition for that 'Trump Tower Moscow' he was lusting after for years.

THOMEWOOD

Not just for that. I think there might be a subtle plan afoot to systematically, over the next 4 years, bring the GOP to it's knees in 2024.

Not that there's any cause for complaint about that. The intended targets are many and certainly of their own making.

I've also been thinking that Matt Gaetz might be in line for a 'career adjustment' as one of those swarmy televangelists. He has the look of one.

Better off?

Most definitely but mostly her.

But an ego-buster for the Dude nonetheless. No guy likes to hear the words "I'm tired of you so buzz off" no matter how politely.

Now he has to go back to haunting the pickup joints. Bummer!

TOR

Have you ever heard the expression "The South Shall Rise Again?"

Well, they're still trying.

Is it my imagination or, since Biden has been in office, am I noticing a concentration of investigations lately of Trump supporters both inside and outside of Capitol Hill?

"I suppose there are good reasons for the wait. Maybe trying to squeeze any and all info out of them."

One good reason is to avoid that pesky "Right to a speedy trial" thingy while they doin' the squeezin'.

LEGALLY

"I think he gets paid by the letter."

Probably. But we don't earn a dime for helping him stay in business.
