    Trump basically admitted to using FAKE NEWS (aka failing New York Times) as his evidence of Obama ordering secret wire taps on him.

    Why isn't this a HUGE story? I guess Donnie and the gang's La La Land is / has become reality.

    the thread killer strikes again, lol

    Indirect, smokescreen comments have that effect.
    a half an hour? I'd say your right or maybe people actually clicked on it and threw up in their mouths a lil when they realized the reward she got for borderline treasonous conduct.
    YAY AIPAC!
    Cut that "think tank" funding! AHORA!

    Spicy still stands by the President's claim of wiretapping by Obama.

    Where are all of the trump defenders now? Why aren't you defending his lies? Why can't you show proof that he's not lying? Several of you people here voted for or supported him. Have any of you finally realized you were fooled?

    funny... I had my trump voting friend forward this to me... proving you guys all hang out in the same fox news echo chamber

    the dude leaks his own tax info... showing very little... from 12 years ago... and you guys all eat it up like a bunch of suckers... this guy is playing you all for some downright fools... this is so transparent its ridiculous... but you guys took the bait and run with it, just like he knew you would... just like the voter fraud... just like the travel ban... just like Obama wiretapped... bunch of suckers
    Well my liberal reaction to it was to laugh, simply because of the way Maddow way overhhyped the news. I didn't read into it at all. In fact, it didn't even occur to me that this was a partisan meme. I think it really is just poking fun at the Maddow flub with the story. The red hat is extra funny, lol. She kind of did play right into Trump's hands on it, after all. Of course Trump leaked that worthless tax form, but this meme isn't about that.... That's my take on it, anyway!

    I don't know about you guys but I've always found the State department, education, science, and the arts to be overrated. Obviously, as made clear by the budget proposal, this president feels the same.

    Bernie's new "summer" pad is ..


    Yeah, his wife's relative died and left her a wad of cash in the will, so they spent the inheritance on this place.

    You sure it wasn't because he only paid 13% federal taxes compared to Trump's 25%?

    I know.. I'm reacting to the comment that you found the State Dept to be overrated. They may be the most important of the major departments. And the Sec'y is the chief diplomat. It is responsible for all treaties and engagements with foreign entities. It was the first department established when the Constitution was signed. That's pretty important.

    Yes. They bought it with an inheritance.

    FWIW, I think people should do whatever they can to use tax laws to lower what they owe. I know I would, and I can't think of anyone who doesn't do that. I think it's somewhat comical how some people, no matter their political persuasion, are acting like they think everyone (or just politicians?) should be paying more taxes than they are required to pay by law. And before you ask, yes, I defended Trump doing the same at length after he made that dumb comment about how he pays as little tax as he can. How much he legally paid or didn't pay in taxes has nothing to do with why I'm interested to see his detailed tax returns from the last 10 years.

    Oh, and btw, in case you're interested, "The Democratic presidential candidate, who has said Jane Sanders files the couple’s federal income taxes, provided paperwork listing $56,377 in 2014 deductions. They paid $24,509 in state and local income taxes and property taxes and $22,946 in home mortgage interest while making $8,350 in charitable contributions." - Bloomberg
