Just when you think Tapper couldn't be more dishonest and disingenuous, he does something like this to prove you wrong.

You Europeans and your spellings... ?

The man is insufferable.

Me! Me! Me!!

White Edmunds Poyer

Yup!

Fixed ? That was my guess for the season. I hope I am wrong and we are 12-4.

10-4 and playoff bound! ?

WEEEEEEEEEEEE! ?

Rudy is bringing some truth...

Holy ***** what a difference a play makes in the Tennessee/Houston game.

Ratcliffe has an excellent point ... what would a prosecutor do if this was a Georgie P or someone "lesser" like him? And that is exactly what gets the average schmoe pissed off; there are two tiers of justice in this country. That needs to end.

If it ends up in the Senate (I am still not certain the House has the votes) I would not be shocked to see her, and Joe Manchin (who I have been saying for years that I have no idea why he is still a Democrat), vote against impeachment. Anyone think anyone else might be a "no" vote on the D side in the Senate?

Byproduct of a stronger economy, although the "msm" will probably spin it as people are starving on the streets and #OrangeManBad (assuming they report it at all). More than 5.9 million individuals dropped off food stamps since President Donald Trump assumed office in February 2017, according to the latest data released by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA). The most up-to-date USDA data shows that 5,975,736 people discontinued using food stamps, also known as the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), between February 2017— when Trump completed his first full month in office— and September 2019. </snip>

I think Boris is in a league of his own.

Well, at least Jill believes him! She also thinks Trump is afraid to run against Joey-B.

$900,000 paid to Joe Biden from the Ukraine for "consulting services."

I'll put this here too... Some are reporting he is switching parties, some are reporting he may... Anti-impeachment Democrat poised to switch parties Democratic Rep. Jeff Van Drew (N.J.) will switch political parties after voicing opposition to impeachment, sources told The Hill. Van Drew has begun informing his staff and fellow New Jersey delegation members that he will leave the Democratic Party, Democratic aides said. His decision comes after a lengthy Friday meeting with President Trump. Van Drew is one of just two Democratic lawmakers who voted against launching an impeachment inquiry into Trump. He is a member of the centrist Blue Dog caucus. </snip>

Is there a thread for this? If so, plmk and I will move it there (I could not find it via search). Anyhoooo.... this may be the only way to get rid of the bureaucracy (deep state or otherwise), and let people choose whether to quit or move and then just hire people on a true need basis. It happens to private sector employees every day, especially in the last 30-40 years. When a private sector employee closes up shop in an area, you either move to the new location (if offered a position) to continue on with the company, or move on to other another employer. Everyone has children, parents, spouse, schooling, housing, etc., issues that come into play with a job relocation. Opponents warn of staff exodus as US breaks up lands bureau The deadline for most staffers to notify the land bureau, which is overseen by the Interior Department, whether they intended to move was Thursday. But the bureau had not yet compiled a count for how many staffers had so far agreed to relocate, spokesman Derrick Henry said. The bureau oversees about 388,000 square miles (1 million square kilometers) of public lands, the vast majority of it in the U.S. West. It issues permits for oil and gas drilling, mining and ranching, manages outdoor recreation and enforces environmental protections. Bernhardt has called for about 300 positions to be switched from Washington to other offices in 11 Western states, including Nevada, Arizona and Utah. About 25 will be going to the new headquarters in Grand Junction, Colorado. </snip> ”I think, frankly, it’s going to cripple the bureau for a long time,” said Henri Bisson, a former deputy director for the agency. With fewer career staffers in Washington to weigh in on management of federal lands, “it will result in decisions that are more political than they are resource-based,” Bisson said. Employees who agree to move have 120 days to report to their new posts. Bisson and other former bureau officials who are talking to employees said it appears the majority of reassigned staffers will leave instead. “Many of them are in families that have two careers, and their spouse can’t move. They have kids in high school. They have ailing parents they are taking care of,” said Kit Muller, who retired last year after 38 years with the bureau and is one of those projecting that fewer than half of reassigned staffers would move. “You can imagine the reasons.” </snip>

Another one - cell phones are more prevalent than landlines (and who picks up an unfamiliar number on a cell?)
