Bannon stepping down from Breitbart. Hopefully we never hear from him and his many layers of shirts again.

The United States of America calls its next witness... Steve Bannon
you sure do seem to have a lot of time on your hands to be on this forum? Do you have a job? Are you a shut-in?

remember, it came out last year that his emails were hacked. trump may not be the only one being blackmailed. Graham did an about face after around of golf, so Trump may even be the one blackmailing him. Trump meets with Putin on Asia trip, then plays golf with Graham, then Graham goes cuck.

I mean, she probably violated some committee rule releasing the interview against the Majority's objections, but.. eff them.


When the other side is tearing #$!&@ down and setting fire to the status quo, you have to start doing things like this.

These are not normal times and Dems need to stop trying to always be the adult in the room. No Dem will pay a political price for trying to save the country from Trump and his Kremlin clan (formerly known as the Republican party).

healthcare.gov ended up about 5% behind last year, same with the state exchanges but seven states are still enrolling people because there was no reason to cut the enrollment time short.

this guy is a criminal who has no regard for the safety of his workers or the people who live in the region:
The memo was written by Robert E. Murray, a longtime Trump supporter who donated $300,000 to the president’s inauguration. In it, Mr. Murray, the head of Murray Energy, presented Mr. Trump with a wish list of environmental rollbacks just weeks after the inauguration.

Nearly a year later, the White House and federal agencies have completed or are on track to fulfill most of the 14 detailed requests, even with Monday’s decision by federal regulators to reject a proposal by Energy Secretary Rick Perry to subsidize struggling coal and nuclear plants.

The March 1 memo, which was obtained by Senator Sheldon Whitehouse of Rhode Island and shared with The New York Times, is addressed to Vice President Mike Pence. The sweeping wish list of regulatory overhauls includes ending regulations on greenhouse gas emissions and ozone and mine safety, as well as cutting the staff of the Environmental Protection Agency “at least in half” and overhauling the Labor Department’s office of mine safety.

The Trump administration has had an unusually close relationship with Mr. Murray. He and 10 of his miners were invited to watch the president sign an executive order to rollback President Obama’s climate change regulations. He has met with Mr. Perry to discuss the needs of coal producers. His longtime attorney, Andrew Wheeler, is awaiting Senate confirmation to the No. 2 slot at the E.P.A., and David Zatezalo, the nation’s new top mine safety and health regulator and previously the president of a coal mining company, told his hometown paper that Mr. Murray had encouraged him to put his hat in the ring for the job.

Jeffrey Holmstead, a lawyer with the firm Bracewell and a deputy administrator of the E.P.A. in the George W. Bush administration, called Mr. Murray’s action plan “an ambitious list.” While interest groups always try to influence policy in a new administration, Mr. Holmstead said Mr. Murray’s status with the administration set him apart.

It was always an uphill battle, made slightly easier by Jones win. It is good to keep that in mind, but remain optimistic.

If Sen. McCain decides to retire due to his health issues, than that helps the cause because I cannot see the Republicans winning two seats in a purpling Arizona.

I would say there's a better than even chance that Arpaio gets the Republican nomination for the Arizona Senate, so that would be another Democratic pick up. Republican chances of picking up Ohio have dimmed, as there really isn't a Republican candidate for that office--Josh Mandel dropped out. There's talking about getting the Hill Billy elegy guy to run, but I don't know if a Republican can win Ohio by saying low income whites are to blame for their own circumstances.

Arpaio probably has a 20-35% chance of the GOP nom. Conventional wisdom is that he and Ward will split the crazy vote and McSally will take the nomination. A poll came out recently with 31% McSally, 29% Arpaio, 25% Ward...and a ton undecided.

Donald J. Trump‏ @realDonaldTrump
The fact that Sneaky Dianne Feinstein, who has on numerous occasions stated that collusion between Trump/Russia has not been found, would release testimony in such an underhanded and possibly illegal way, totally without authorization, is a disgrace. Must have tough Primary!


Must have tough primary? Who is he talking to exactly?

It feels like forever since a good Presidential Tweet Storm, sorry he doesn't Tweet Storm.. um, Stream of Consciousness.

Donald Trump wrote:It just shows everyone how broken and unfair our Court System is when the opposing side in a case (such as DACA) always runs to the 9th Circuit and almost always wins before being reversed by higher courts.


See Pac's comment, it's about DACA

I wonder how much Feinstein's tripping him up on DACA spurred this?

Senator Feinstein's seat is up for election in 2018 and she will be challenged by Democrats to take her place.
