Somewhere on planet Y there is a Hill opinion piece that this stimulus funding foolery is some kind of owning the Dems. They really don't know what to do with his mastery of political judo on this. The SOB is just flopping around like a fish plucked from the sea.

Secretary Pompeo tells Fox he’s working to get more of
@HillaryClinton’s emails out before the election.

PERINO: Will that happen before the election?

POMPEO: Doing it as fast as we can. I certainly, I certainly think there'll be more to see before the election

A guy I know who votes republican in PA posted on Facebook that the stimulus package lost Trump his vote. He said that if the republicans are going to give out a ton of welfare and drive up the deficit (making him less likely to get social security) then voting republican or Democrat doesn’t make a difference to him. He’s sitting out the election.

The different groups making up Trump’s base for different reasons (rich people who don’t want to pay taxes, broke people who are just racist) are now having their interests collide and whatever Trump does is going to alienate someone.

Seems like the type of work that the Secretary of State should be undertaking. I guess I am just a throwback thinking that its about diplomacy. I've only ever see the SoS as a political position in a book (It Couldn't happen Here - which reads like the playbook for Trumpism)

It is amazing that Social Security has been around for nearly 90 year and people still have no clue how it works.

So wild that they're going to confirm Barret somehow still. Election day is 25 days away and they haven't started the comittee hearing yet.

Harlan Hill, president of the D.C.-based Logan Circle Group, which describes itself as a boutique public relations firm, tweeted that Harris "comes off as an insufferable, lying bitch" as the Democratic senator debated Vice President Pence on Wednesday night.


He’s got a bunch of big company names on his website claiming that he represents them, and the companies are systematically lining up to deny that and say that he will never work with him.

President Trump on Friday expressed outrage at reports Attorney General William Barr has communicated to lawmakers that the Durham report will not be released until after the presidential election.

"I don't know that he made that statement, I would be very disappointed in him," Trump said on "The Rush Limbaugh Show."

RATCLIFFE SAYS ODNI HAS PROVIDED NEARLY 1,000 DOCUMENTS TO DOJ TO SUPPORT DURHAM PROBE

U.S. Attorney John Durham is investigating the Department of Justice's (DOJ) handling of the investigation into Russian interference with the 2016 election and potential collusion between Russia and the Trump campaign. Axios reported Friday that Barr was telling top Republican lawmakers that the Durham review was not going to be completed before the election and that Durham is aiming to win prosecutions.

"I will be very disappointed if that Axios piece that you read to me is true" Trump added. "Because they've had plenty of time to get this done"


I left the ODNI bit in there, it’s another story, but it’s kind of a tragic headline. Trump goes on to say that Republicans are just too weak and want the status quo because the Democrats would have 25 people in jail for life at this point.

So the plan is to have hundreds on the grounds of the White House tomorrow apparently give them some Rona, and then head on down to Sanford Florida on Monday to wipe out the villages
