I admit to feeling, since Barr's statement was posted, similar to how I felt on election night in 2016.
That Trump went Radio Silent when the Mueller report was confirmed delivered tells me he wasn't so sure about his vindication. Now, seeing reports of the gloating is like reliving election day-after.
It makes me ill, wondering if when these cases pending in other jurisdictions come out, the same thing will happen.
Meanwhile Trumpublicans are gleeful that DT is *exonerated,* and could care less that he got elected through the machinations which he has.
God I hope there will be trials that wipe the current smirks off the faces of do many. If not, I don't think this country has much is a chance at avoiding a fall into the kind of corruption we despise about so many other countries.

“Our Democratic colleagues have taken all the debunked philosophies of the last hundred years, rolled them into one giant package, and thrown a little ‘green’ paint on them to make them look new.”
Well said, Mitch!
Speaking of the Green New Deal...
And like that..
It's gone.

So what is Mitch et al.’s plan b to address climate change?
Crickets...
I’m not a fan of the gnd, but their self righteousness over the matter is a bit rich considering they basically obstruct everything.

Indeed. Can anyone give an example of a feasible idea that Republicans have put forth about climate issues or healthcare?

Awwww...I'm flattered, Werner. As you know, I'm not nearly smart enough to do such a thing, though. I'm going to stay right here and learn from the rest of these fine people.

New book claims former first lady Barbara Bush kept a Trump countdown clock at her bedside
By CAITLIN OPRYSKO 03/27/2019 10:53 AM EDT
https://www.politico.com/story/2019/03/27/barbara-bush-trump-countdown-clock-1238787
The late first lady Barbara Bush disliked President Donald Trump so much that she kept a jokingly gifted clock counting down to the end of his presidency by her bedside until the day she died, according to an excerpt of a new book about her.
According to Susan Page, USA Today Washington Bureau Chief and author of “Matriarch: Barbara Bush and the Making of an American Dynasty,” the former first lady received the red, white and blue digital clock after the 2016 election as a joke from a friend in Kennebunkport, Maine, who knew how deep her disdain for the president ran.
“She parked it on the side table in her bedroom, next to the chair she would sit in to needlepoint or watch television,” Page wrote of the clock, which counted down to the second the end of Trump’s term. “She liked the countdown clock so much that when the Bushes returned to Houston that October, she brought it with her. It sat on her bedside table, where she could see it every day.”
The new book set to be published next week was compiled from interviews with the Bush matriarch before her death last year as well as decades of diary entries from the former first lady. It shows that Bush’s dislike of Trump goes as far back as the 1990s, when she wrote of the then-real estate mogul that “Trump now means Greed, selfishness and ugly.”

Steve Bannon predicts Harris-Beto ticket has 'best shot' at beating Trump
By REBECCA MORIN 03/29/2019 09:15 AM EDT
https://www.politico.com/story/2019/03/29/steve-bannon-harris-orourke-2020-1243426
Former White House chief strategist Steve Bannon on Friday claimed a Kamala Harris-Beto O'Rourke ticket has the "best shot" against President Donald Trump in the 2020 elections, but he also contended that the president will likely win reelection.
"I think the best they're going to have, and I don't think these people will defeat him, I think a combination ... of [Kamala] Harris for president and Beto O'Rourke for VP is a way to mobilize their base and give it the best shot," Bannon said during an interview on CNBC's "Squawk Box."
The guy just might have a point...Dems tend to lose when they offer up the same ol' same ol', and win when they rally around a new, fresh, diverse face. Harris has a reasonable amount of gov't experience and is smart, diverse....Beto is quite captivating, and can get the base excited....that's not a bad combo.

Well ok so the Mueller thing didn’t go quite according to plan, but if I hold my breath long enough I’m sure Trump will do something stupid that will lose him support and the election.
I’ve got kind of a nagging feeling that I’ve thought this before, but if hold my breath long enough I’ll prolly be able to forget. Who knows - maybe there’s an access Hollywood tape in his future? I’m pretty sure we’re in the Querencia phase at this point. I’ll show him - our POTUS underestimates how long I can hold my breath!

It would be nice if people actually read the report—or, whatever is left of the report after redactions—before jumping to conclusions about what it means.

Just what are you trying to say here.
Trump's own AG told us that the report completely exonerates Trump.
Surely, somebody Trump appointed would't try and spin the truth now.

Yes, trump will eventually say/do something that will cost him the election, but he will still have the support of the undesirables.

If this doesn't hammer home what utter piles of cr@p the mainstream media have become... nothing will.
People will still pay attention to the teevee/NYtimes/Wapo and all the other garbage propaganda outlets out there. Spoon-fed garbage 24x7x365

ATLANTA, GA—While Empire actor Jussie Smollett has been having a tough week so far, there appears to be a silver lining: cable news channel CNN has offered Smollett a job as an investigative reporter and on-air anchor after witnessing his skills at fabricating a story entirely out of thin air.
CNN producers were reportedly impressed throughout the ongoing saga of Smollett's apparent hoax attack on himself. They realized early on the facts didn't add up but were fascinated with how well the actor kept the narrative going. An HR rep quickly reached out to Smollett to see if he'd be interested in taking on a position at the news organization after news broke that the entire thing was probably fabricated.
