Are his whiny man baby posts from his Twitter account fake news too?

He lacks class, dignity, has shown himself to be a racist, a sexist, misogynistic old man.

Maybe you two have got a bit in common?

He mandated that the US Government would spend millions of Dollars at his Doral resort, in June, in Florida, when bookings tank because no-one in their right mind wants to go there in the middle of Hurrican season.

Even if he didn't "make a profit" - although nobody is allowed to verify his company books - Doral would not be reporting its normal loss it incurs in June with this extra business. So of course he's financially benefiting. 

Just like every time he golfs at one of his resorts the US Government has to spend our money there as well.

Just like he "suggested" VP Pence stay at his Irish resort on the other side of Ireland when visiting Dublin. 

Just like he "suggested" US Air Force crews stay at his Scottish resort when flying between Europe and US.

Today he's ranting about the "so called emoluments" clause of the Constitution. There is more to come out.

US President Donald Trump has called the congressional impeachment investigation that may seek to remove him from office "a lynching".

Well there is hope after all

" POTUS would rather have a 24-hour news cycle with pundits criticizing (rightly so) his use of the word lynching than another 24 hours of the media discussing further testimony/evidence of how he manipulated foreign policy for his own political self-interest "

Why the hysterical "Lynching " comments from the President and some of his Republican supporters?

Ambassador Taylor testifying to Congress today .... one of the people on Ukraine text message string.

 

It's been stated that all these other issues - emoluments, Syria, the "coup" and 'lynching" tweets are designed to be distractions from the core issue of the relegation of US national interests to his own.

William Taylor’s evidence is surely the most damning yet and very hard to characterise a man with his background as a conspirator

You seem to have discovered yet another Trump-phibian...with the emphasis on the phib!


“A newly discovered blind and burrowing amphibian is to be officially named Dermophis donaldtrumpi, in recognition of the US president’s climate change denial.

The name was chosen by the boss of EnviroBuild, a sustainable building materials company, who paid $25,000 (£19,800) at an auction for the right. The small legless creature was found in Panama and EnviroBuild’s Aidan Bell said its ability to bury its head in the ground matched Donald Trump’s approach to global warming.

Trump’s distinctive hair has already led to comparisons to a poisonous furry caterpillar and a golden-plumed pheasant, while a yellow-crowned moth was called Neopalpa donaldtrumpi in 2017.”

Meanwhile - Republican lawmakers (an oxymoron unless it means cutting taxes) and other allies have taken the Presidents plea to defend over the Ukraine investigation him to new lows.

https://www.politico.com/news/2019/10/23/impeachment-republicans-trump-055688

" Laura Cooper’s scheduled deposition has been upended by a group of House Republicans storming the hearing room, members say. Republicans took cellphones into the secure area, which is a huge violation. We’re told the room will need a security sweep before the deposition can continue " 

Laura Cooper is Department of Defense expert on Russia / Ukraine. She is expected to back up the testimony from the Acting Ambassador to Ukraine. Do they want the testimony stopped ? 

The session is occurring in a Secure (SCIF) Facility, so a major breach of security by these guys barging in - there are already Republican lawmakers in the room as they are on the Committee. 

 " Republicans tried to storm a Secure Classified Information Facility (SCIF) where TOP SECRET +++ information is stored & shared? ITS A TOP SECRET FACILITY RUN BY THE CIA/DOD & GUARDED BY TS/SCI CLEARED ARMED POLICE. This isn’t a joke anymore. Charge them with trespass. " 

This follows on the Republicans trying to censure Committee Chairman Adam Schiff on Monday - that predictably failed.

Meanwhile - Republicans have sent video a texts from the SCIF, which in itself is an illegal act, and Congressional privilege may not cover that issue.

Quite a publicity stunt / distraction. 

 " The House Sargent at Arms just walked into the SCIF... "

Can the American people not see what the harm this arrogant, stupid, blinkered, racist is doing to their country.?

Politics is becoming more of a disgrace by the day all over the world and the disenfranchised probably don't know how lucky they are not t o have to make choices on who represents them.

This is also an illegal action if the Presidents tweets hav the same force as his Executive Orders: once more he is only the head of the US Government, the Government does not work for him.

Meanwhile, there is a comment the President has made long the lines of 'I could stand in the middle of 5th Avenue and shoot somebody and I wouldn't lose voters,"  ' hahah ... well in his appeal against a court ruling he has to hand over his taxes to New York State; his lawyer just argued he couldn't be arrested for that either... maybe Boris should lend them Charles and Camilla if they want a King again so badly.

Every week we seem to be closer to the breaking point, but it is a very big country and ill-served by the media failing to explain the news behind the tabloid headlines. Just like the UK.... so UK politics is following exactly the same pattern of apparent tolerance of the lying and cheating.

Is this the impeachment inquiry that is being held in a basement, by the Democrats, who wont let any one else in? The impeachment inquiry that Pelosi said 'isn't an impeachment inquiry'? Is that the telephone call that we already have the transcript for?

You have to admit it, Surfer. The US Democrats are as useless as Corbyn and the Labour Party. They actually drive people to the opposition.

As it involves national security and it's evidence gathering these depositions are being taken in a secure room (which means it's in the basement of the Capitol Building, you at least got that part right) and "in private", as all such indictment phase investigations would be. 

However it's not in secret, there are 48 Republican Representatives who sit on the respective committees that can attend these hearings; if they choose not to do that, well that is up to them. In fact of the 30 who "stormed" the room in protest over "being excluded" , 14 sit on the respective committees... and several have been sitting in the sessions, so spare me the crocodile tears.

Update: So the testimony from Ukraine born Lt. Col Alexander Vindman - who was a direct witness to the phone call - has had three four outcomes: 

- Fox News and some Republicans have been accusing Vindman of being a spy and / or "dual loyalties"

https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/politics-news/lawmakers-both-sides-decry-attacks-lt-col-vindman-shameful-despicable-n1073381

- His testimony directly contradicted that of Ambassador Sunland, who could now face perjury charges. . 

https://theweek.com/speedreads/874993/former-special-counsel-thinks-alexander-vindman-gordon-sondland-deep-deep-legal-trouble

- His testimony places recently resigned Energy Secretary Rick Perry directly into one of the meetings. 

https://www.politico.com/news/2019/10/29/nsc-official-testimony-ukraine-perry-061244

 

as well as : - 

https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/salvadorhernandez/vindman-trump-call-white-house-ukraine-transcript-missing

It seems that the "word for word, exact transcript" of the call provided by the White House may have left out some important details.

So how much exactly has Hunter Biden made from his Dad's connections?
