Lib is getting so pissed.

Weird, now resident Prog-Libs are concerned about the surveillance state again. After 8 years of Obama pumping it with PED's and trying to throw every whistleblower in jail.

Sad, but expected.

Weird I know, given the total meltdown and things like really pissed off Lib taking hearsay as fact.

But it seems real life Sessions prosecuted and got the death penalty for a Klansman which then paved the way towards a $7 million dollar civil judgement against the Klan in Alabama.

Doesn't sound real Robert "Grand Kleagle" Byrd'ish to me. :shrug

holy crap. I hadn't heard a Chappaquidick reference from you in awhile, but looks like you were struggling to find a living Democrat as racist as Jeff Sessions.

Oh, and KK if we're going to off pure hearsay and anecdotal information here, then HRC is a massive racist.

According to a report in the Argentine paper La Nacion, when President Mauricio Macri called Trump to congratulate him on winning the election, Trump used the opportunity to urge him to clear the way for a stalled office building development.

what a rough ridin' buffoon. this won't be a huge story because it involves business instead of humans, but this is actually less presidential than other gaffes involving sexuality or bad word choice.

Does he even know this is illegal?

While unethical, president and VP are exempt from conflict of interest rules apparently. That's what I've read and could be bullshit.

Still can't use the office to profit. Constitution or something states it.

Build a bunch of bldgs, move a bunch of govt agencies to said bdgs, sign stupid long and stupid expensive leases, do something similar in a bunch of countries and use USA friendship, aid, influence to get them built, leased, occumpied, etc. Seems like this could be lucrative for Don.
