April Ryan has been getting death threats due to her asking SHS if Trump has considered stepping down. I guess she should get a security detail?

Remember the good old days when Michael Cohen was just a creepy freak for posting a highly suggestive picture of his daughter in lingerie?

Comey states in his book that John Kelly called Trump dishonorable for firing Comey. I'm sure this will play well in the White House.

Jacqueline Alemany @JaxAlemany
A source tells me that Trump called yesterday and asked source to go on TV to call for Trump to fire Mueller.

Looks like Rod Rosenstein was at the White House today - just left. Fancy that!


Can't wait to read the memo!

A Trump Tower doorman claims that Trump has an illegitimate child. :lol:

Apparently, the National Enquirer bought the story from him before the election and never used it. Hmm...

I wonder if the NE bought a lot of exclusives in order to keep them secret. We already know they paid Karen McDougal to silence her.

Yeah but...

“The number of jobs and amount of wealth and income the United States have given away in so short a time is staggering, likely unprecedented. And the situation is about to get drastically worse if the Trans-Pacific Partnership is not stopped.” - March 14, 2016

“[The TPP] would make it easier for our trading competitors to ship cheap subsidized goods into U.S. markets — while allowing foreign countries to continue putting barriers in front of our exports.… The TPP creates a new international commission that makes decisions the American people can’t veto.” - June 28, 2016

“[The TPP is] a deal that was designed for China to come in, as they always do, through the back door and totally take advantage of everyone.” - November 10, 2015

“The Trans-Pacific Partnership is an attack on America’s business. It does not stop Japan’s currency manipulation. This is a bad deal.” - April 25, 2015


Why would our president want to get us back into such a "bad deal"?

There was that knife sharpening over Hill, who also decided to nix it at one point, calling it the gold standard.

One of my favorite things is the media taking pics of John Kelly during Trump speeches or meetings. This one is from today:

Over at scandal corner east, Scott Pruitt has 4 different email addresses, but there is not a good answer, if any, as to why. pruitt.scott@epa.gov looks normal and official, but there there are these: esp7@epa.gov, adm14pruitt@epa.gov and sooners7@epa.gov. Some are concerned that it might be a FIOA dodge attempt. I think he should just get the personal email server that Pompeo is lined up on. they can get a group rate.

Mean while out side of PruDog7's privacy enclosure, lifelong Republican and former Trump aide Kevin Chmielewski,who was the EPA’s deputy chief of staff until he got kicked to the curb for questioning the administrator's life style of the rich and famous act, presses publicly that his former boss's actions are unethical if not illegal.

Pruitt was unavailability for comment as he is overseeing the opening of an open pit mine on the 1300 block of Constitution Avenue outside of the William Jefferson Clinton West Building
(he must love going to work there every fourth day).

Which is stupid, because very few FOIA requests are limited to a particular user account. They are almost always tied to an individual. So in this case, the EPA would be illegally withholding (or failing to identify for exemption purposes) a subset of Pruitt's emails. And if the production results seem suspiciously low or silent as to a topic, the requester will press the agency and/or file suit.
