Good for her. Put aside her political viewpoints, considered the evidence and voted to convict on all 18 counts. Is there an issue?

Seriously people keep pointing her out negatively when she voted guilty for all counts.
Quick Google shows that GoGo is wrong with regards to the Kiwi and the Banana.

To be candid, I flipping hate it when a juror makes the rounds after a trial to get his/her 15 minutes

I do not know why the Hunter corruption thing fascinates me, but it does. Maybe that’s just how flippant they are with flaunting what they’ve done. There’s literally stacks of paper showing their transgressions, and clearly there is information from inside his campaign warning he and his wife against the very act that they performed, as well as the reason that they were arraigned today.

The political witchhunt, scapegoating, claims that the Justice Department is full of liberal Democrats hunting good conservative, and all those other insanity has to come crashing into some reality wall promptly. I mean it’s so blatant and vile. In the end needing to ask the judge to lower the bail because it would be a burden to make bond as they live paycheck to paycheck. After spending like $30,000 on vacations to Italy, Las Vegas and Hawaii last year. It’s just ridiculous that they even think they can get away with this, much less have the audacity to proclaim their innocence.

By the way, just because something might be politically motivated doesn’t mean you’re innocent.

i think an assumption is that something that is 'politically motivated' would've gotten no attention nor action if not for the political angle. So acceding to the 'politically motivated' flag downplays the transgression.

Understood, but it still doesn’t make him innocent.

At a root level it’s theft. Is it embezzlement, or just some type of misappropriation since it was a con job, not redirecting funds. The politics are because it was political funds, which makes it a public trust issue with other special rules.

Hannity Tears Into Jeff Sessions: Did a ‘Tremendous Disservice’ to Trump

Sean Hannity tears into Jeff Sessions on behalf of Donald Trump is one of those sentences that would have taken an awful lot of explanation a few years ago

I really can't stand people talking over each other but big props to Chris Cuomo for pushing KAC on Trump's lies. Ainsley Earhart can take a lesson on how to actually conduct an interview, ya know, with follow-ups and stuff:

A rather large portion of Ainsley Earhart's job is to enable a propaganda campaign. She has more closely Iva Ikuko Toguri d'Aquino then Elizabeth Cochrane Seaman**.

Ms. Earhart could win my heart if she gave me a little something like this:

“This is your little playmate—I mean your bitter enemy—Ann, with a program of dangerous and wicked propaganda for my victims in Australia and the South Pacific. Stand by, you unlucky creatures, here I go!”

Holy Shirt! Duncan Hunter the Lesser went with the tried and true (as deployed by a former VA Governor), blame the wife:

“She handled my finances throughout my entire military career, and that continued on when I got into Congress. She was also the campaign manager, so whatever she did, that’ll be looked at too, I’m sure,” he said. “But I didn’t do it. I didn’t spend any money illegally.”


This was on Fox last night, of course.

A former prosecutor on this ploy:

“She does seem like she’s kind of the brains behind the operation, but that’s a very qualified phrase when you’re talking about these two. I mean, it’s kind of like a dumb and dumber couple,” Forge said. “She's the dumb and he’s the dumber, so he's calling her for advice on how to do it but it’s pretty poor advice that she's giving him.”

Duncan Hunter really seems like a stand-up guy. I wish I lived in California so I could vote for him.

Suns up, tweets are rolling. Another day, another sack of crazy, especially crazy if your name is Jeff Sessions.

Also amusing is that he seems to be defending the bots an foreign influencers as unfair to take down those accounts leaving only the likes of CNN and NBC... lol

The Enquirer helped hide Trump's secrets like the hush money thing in some sort of actually vault.

Guess that explains the one dude from there getting immunity

guessing the Cohen stuff has been an impetus to more Sessions attacks, while he knows Sessions can't interfere with Manafort (even still he carps about his recusal) he probably fully expected him to "do something" to protect him in the SDNY case
