You LOL, but Northern Ireland is going to be a tricky location due to Brexit. No doubt he was sent there to make sure Ireland doesn't decide to reunite. Putin would hate that.


”If you’re going to cough, please leave the room,” Trump chided him in a caught-on-camera scolding. “You just can’t, you just can’t cough. Boy oh boy. Okay, do you want to do that a little differently … ”


Mick Mulvaney didn’t jump from his position as acting White House chief of staff — he was pushed

Nonsense. He jumped at that plum position in Northern Ireland.

I thought about this too. Isn't it technically illegal?

It may just shift who has to pay for it, but we know it’s the public and not the campaign like it probably would have to be.

That's honestly the best thing he could do. What else is the President going to do on Saturday?

Betsy DeVos is brother Erik Prince is running operations in the US to infiltrate organizations deemed liberal and opposed to Trump. That's been pretty heavy-duty s***

Erik Prince, the security contractor with close ties to the Trump administration, has in recent years helped recruit former American and British spies for secretive intelligence-gathering operations that included infiltrating Democratic congressional campaigns, labor organizations and other groups considered hostile to the Trump agenda, according to interviews and documents.

One of the former spies, an ex-MI6 officer named Richard Seddon, helped run a 2017 operation to copy files and record conversations in a Michigan office of the American Federation of Teachers


I can't get the link to post cleanly from my phone, but this is from The New York times.

That smells a whole heck of a lot more like Watergate than anything else so far. Of course he's probably just doing it out of the goodness of his own heart.

Days after Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) wore an enormous gas mask during a House floor vote on an emergency funding package to manage the response to the coronavirus pandemic, the congressman announced that a resident in his district in northwestern Florida had died of covid-19.

Latest 538 model has Biden at 89% for a majority and 95% for a plurality.

Hope Bernie doesn't go scorched earth.

If Biden wins Michigan and it’s not competitive, I hope Bernie considers dropping out before the 3/15 debate. I obviously much prefer Bernie, but if Biden’s going to be the nominee we don’t need Bernie trouncing him in a debate and raising more questions about Biden’s cognitive functioning. Joe was bad enough in the big debates where he only had to talk for limited stretches and he seems to get less lucid by the day.

As someone who may win a chance to go to that debate I disagree
