Well, at least Trump didn't propose building a wall around Wisconsin to keep all the badgers in. (Although since they voted for Trump in 2016, I guess it wouldn't be that big of a loss.)

I didn’t even know that badgers had the vote in Wisconsin.

GOd, what makes you think I like Barr?
I just point out he must be frustrated by Trump's stupidity.

I didn't say anything about you liking him.

This
I think it's more Barr is just sick and tired of having to put up with Trump's stupidity.

To me I saw, "I think it's more" as saying you didn't agree with this:

Barr is just covering his ass and Trump is undoubtedly pleased.

Even if they have been able to get women out of dangerous situations... If the money wasn't going to the Hookers for Jesus group, the money wouldn't necessarily have been lost... it would have gone to other groups dealing with sex trafficking. (The difference is, those other groups would not have had an anti-homosexual agenda.)

Do you have evidence Hookers for Jesus promotes homophobia? Or are you just going by the fact they are using god beliefs to lure women away from situations they are trapped in?

I think it's important that measuring success is the criteria here, not religious beliefs.

I am just going by what the article said:

From the article:
Hookers for Jesus is a Christian organization founded by former sex worker and sex trafficking victim Annie Lobert in 2007. Lobert's organization...is controversial due to its strict rules in the safehouse, banning "secular magazines with articles, pictures, etc. that portray worldly views/advice on living, sex, clothing, makeup tips," and mandatory attendance of the organization's religious services. Its staff manual also says homosexuality is immoral...reviewers said Hookers for Jesus had little experience with male victims, minors or foreign victims of human trafficking.
 
If Obama had claimed the right to interfere in the Justice System, I wonder what the GOP reaction would be?
 
Trump ain't gonna like this:

From: https://www.cnn.com/2020/02/14/politics/andrew-mccabe-justice-department-investigation/index.html
The Department of Justice is dropping its criminal investigation of former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe without bringing charges, it announced on Friday....McCabe, who is a CNN contributor, has been perceived by President Donald Trump as one of his foes for his work on the early Russia investigation for the FBI....McCabe is also suing the Justice Department and FBI after he was fired last spring, and he has accused the President of politically retaliating against him.

I hope he manages to actually win any sort of law suit he has going against the government.
 
Yeah right. Just like the DOJ was totally going to recommend that sentence for Roger Stone until Trump told them not to.

I expect a retraction hidden as a clarification any minute.
 
From a Tweet sent to Donnie:
He is fighting for our right to exist free from DEM tyranny! We are the real Americans.

A little bit more on this:

From: https://www.rawstory.com/2020/02/ba...cabe-investigation-to-help-trump-politically/
...Justice Department attorneys were met with “mounting frustration and skepticism” from a federal judge regarding documents related to the investigation of former FBI deputy director Andrew McCabe...According to federal judge Reggie Barnett Walton, President Trump’s involvement in the McCabe investigation was “disturbing,” a “mess,” and reflected a “banana republic.”

Trump Tweets

It is happening again to Crazy Bernie, just like last time, only far more obvious. They are taking the Democrat Nomination away from him, and there’s very little he can do. A Rigged System!

If any former president had claimed that an election was rigged it would have been front page news because everyone would know it was the result of a serious investigation. With Trump it's just another day.

Well, I wouldn't say ANY tree...

Macron's oak was the sessile oak tree that was given by the French president Emmanuel Macron to the United States in 2018...The tree was ceremonially planted by both presidents on the White House lawn, and then put to mandatory quarantine....According to Le Monde the oak tree given by Macron has died in quarantine

And the isolation of the U.S. continues...

From: https://www.businessinsider.com/bor...ld-trump-slammed-phone-down-apoplectic-2020-2
UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson has canceled a trip to the US planned for next month...Johnson had been due to visit Washington last month but repeatedly delayed the trip after a series of rows with the president over Iran, Huawei, and a rejected request by the prime minister to extradite the wife of a US diplomat.

The UK used to be one of the United States biggest allies (remember, they were one of the few countries to support their Iraq invasion). And Johnson is seen as a British version of Trump. Yet such is the nature of Trump's incompetence that even friends are abandoning him.

Maybe they were too similar to each other. We tend to dislike people who remind us too much of ourselves.

He was claiming 2016 was rigged long before the election actually happened.

No need, I'm sure they have some trees there.
 
The Trump impeachment did not follow the intent of founding fathers
https://www.brookings.edu/blog/fixg...riginal-intent/amp/?__twitter_impression=true
"Impeachment, in other words, can start, not when the President has been formally charged with a crime; he can be impeached if there are “grounds to believe” that he might “shelter,” that is to say, protect with a pardon, someone with whom he is connected “in any suspicious manner.”
