"Why are we not all talking about this? Because it was done to get Donald Trump, is why."

And what will be done to "get" Trump this next time around? And what will be done to "get" Trump's successors, be it this year or in 2028 or whenever?

The forces opposing Trump, the Establishment - fully believing in the morality of their cause - have already signaled they'll basically stop at nothing to keep the Deplorables' grubby fingers away from the levers of power. But what's indeed hilarious is how they turn around and fret about "threats to Democracy" - as if they themselves don't constitute a, if not THE, major threat.

They've conned themselves into believing Trump = Naziism and every effort to prevent Naziism from gaining any ground is morally defensible, because it's all in defense of "democracy," defined as the Establishment retaining power, which in their view is the only moral outcome. And as we're certain to see, it'll eventually go far beyond lying about the laptop story.

Lots of news, but Rod, you missed some good news: Mike Pompeo dropped out of the presidential race, if he was ever really in. He may get reconstituted in future, but that’s one less faux Christian neocon I don’t have to hear/see for a good while. “We lied, we cheated we stole...”. That’s right Mike, lied about war and stole taxpayer money, leaving a wake of broken lives, death, and despair.
