DeVos forced to cancel $150M in student loan debt after losing the court battle over the “closed school” loan discharges.

Now about those teachers, civil servants and nonprofit employeees he are getting jammed by bad lending practices impeding Perkins Loan cancellations...

The "so what" defense is in full swing

“Nobody got killed, nobody got robbed… This was not a big crime,” Giuliani told The Daily Beast, re alleged violations of campaign finance law.

Yeah, scheming with multiple entities (including a foreign government) to win an election is definitely equivalent to letting your parking meter run out.

Well, at least you've got the president's attorney admitting that a crime was committed and his client is on tape ordering it (if my memory serves me correctly).

Mueller is expanding the Russia investigation to the Middle East. This should be interesting. Bye Jared.

People are already flooding their snorkel over the length of time the investigation is taking (while professionals are continuously saying that this thing is speeding along). So what happens next?

I did overhear the crazies talking about Jim Jordan stating that the FBI is a political organization obsessed with toppling the administration. I am not sure their source. Fox or Facebook would be my bet.

@ZoeTillman

The DC Circuit is about to hear arguments in the sealed grand jury matter. They've sealed not only the courtroom, but the whole floor, so we've been moved away. Haven't recognized anyone going in earlier as being connected to Mueller's office, now we won't be able to see

Sen. Jon Kyl will resign from the Senate on December 31. What will Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey do? Will McSally's play nice strategy pay off?

Fl. Rep. Matt Gaetz said that Trump should pardon Michael Flynn.

What would bring this on, and because of what circumstance you ask? We he said, "I think that when you look at the testimony that Jim Comey gave where he said there was no indicia of lying from Flynn." Yes, the exoneration would be based on Trumps villain Comey.

Hmmm.

I found myself traveling around the Ukraine politicing for the support of a 50-100 year lease of Crimea by Russia.

I am Cohen, sent by my boss the Donald to do the bidding of the Russians.

That is common knowledge.

That is collusion.

In the law they call that conspiracy. The quid pro quo was money

The money the Donald would make on his trump Moscow tower.

Christie says no to being Chief of Staff.

He would have been an odd choice anyway, seeing as wouldn't have gotten along with Jared.

whoever posted the Pence and Christie photo shop in the dead thread made me think that there was an inside track. At least I laughed when I saw the Christie name drop on WH Reality channel.

Response to Flynn's legal team filing from Mueller out. Lying to the FBI is a crime no matter if you know it is or not seems to be the gist.

@GovWalker Signed Senate Bills 883, 884, & 886 into law in Green Bay. Despite all the hype and hysteria out there, these bills do nothing to fundamentally diminish executive authority. The bottom line is the new gov. will cont. to be one of the most powerful chief executives in the country.

I was taught that the Republican Party stands for limited government and less power in the hand of a single executive. I was taught that the Republican Party is most in line with the principles of the Founding Fathers who fought against tyranny and a King. Can someone please explain this?
Do you think April is too early for a Roger Dorn night?
