Comey coming across as honest, straight forward and professional and speaking highly of Bill Barr. Desperate last gasps of repubs trying to change the focus back to Hillary’s emails.
The momentum is beginning to shift in the right direction. Those disappearing headlines won’t be disappearing anytime soon. 2019 is going to be a very interesting year in politics.
Rename Airforce One to Individual One? I wonder how the folks who own condos in Team Trump Treason branded parties are feeling? Oh wait, fine, they’re all Russians. Never mind.

Fox News host Tucker Carlson said this week that he believes President Donald Trump is “not capable” of achieving his campaign promises, a stinging assessment from a conservative pundit who is better known for defending the president than criticizing him.
“I don’t think he’s capable,” Carlson told Die Weltwoche, a German-language paper, in an interview published Tuesday. “I don’t think he’s capable of sustained focus. I don’t think he understands the system.”
The Fox News primetime host went on to say that Trump had not accomplished much because he didn’t understand the legislative process.
“The legislative process in this country by design is highly complex ... In order to do it you really have to understand how it works and you have to be very focused on getting it done,” Carlson said. “He knows very little about the legislative process, hasn’t learned anything, hasn’t and surrounded himself with people that can get it done, hasn’t done all the things you need to do.”
“It’s mostly his fault that he hasn’t achieved those things,” Carlson said. “I’m not in charge of Trump.”
Carlson has been among the most vocal supporters of the president and enjoyed strong ratings as a Fox News host alongside other pro-Trump voices Sean Hannity and Laura Ingraham. While Carlson has been critical of Trump in the past, his most recent comments are among the first to take aim at the president since Democrats scored a significant victory in the midterm elections.
The Trump White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment regarding Carlson’s remarks. Fox News declined to comment.
While Carlson has been critical of Trump before, particularly on issues including his handling of Syria and his attacks against former Attorney General Jeff Sessions, the criticism is a notably at odds with much of the pro-Trump rhetoric that appears on Carlson’s show and across Fox News in prime time.
Elsewhere in the Die Weltwoche interview, Carlson suggested that Trump may simply have a different role than that of conventional presidents, crediting him with bringing renewed attention to immigration.
“I’ve come to believe that Trump’s role is not as a conventional president who promises to get certain things achieved,” Carlson said. “I think Trump’s role is to begin the conversation about what actually matters. We were not having any conversation about immigration before Trump arrived in Washington. People were bothered about it in different places in the country. It’s a huge country, but that was not a staple of political debate at all.”
Has anyone gotten McConell’s comments on today’s news? How about Sheldon Adelson’s? Koch brothers’? The Graham evangelical fellow’s? Paul Ryan’s? Where is the repub leadership and talking heads on all this?

How about Randy Paul? Surely he’ll vote to convict, right? How about Tom “I’m a Warrior, Hear Me Roar” Cotton? Is this what he fought in Iraq for? Somebody should ask him that and watch his head explode.

If Team Trump Treason isn’t impeached and gets re-elected, the US has become a larger version of Russia, China or Saudi Arabia. Who’s fine with that?

Brilliantly disappearing headlines of brilliance in all their brilliancy. Just tapped Team Trump Treason wires because Cohen was an Obama and Hillary plant.
Follow the money from Russia with Love and a PTape all the way to impeachment.

I saw Randy "Bong Hits" Paul on MTP this morning just dismissing and excusing everything away
Must have ripped a few hits before sitting down with Chuck lol

Still angling for SOS or HHS. Or just a man crush on putin on the ritz and thus carries his water.
Investigation isn’t even done yet and Fox News is already talking about him being indicted. The cracks are starting to appear, folks. Stay tuned...
I like the membrane analogy. Yup, it’s the beginning of the end and we’re not even finished with all of the indictments and court filings. It’s going to get a lot worse when the indictments for Jared Dear Boy and Donny, Jr. are filed.

It’s intereting at which points the media get more onboard. Don’t they know there’s still layers of shit to go through. Wait til we get to exchanging US foreign policy for the big $$
