Trump's Swamp

  It seems this case should have closed years ago-- but this isn't a TV show like The Balcklist and well-connected, crooked multimillionaires have a way of drawing these things out forever. No doubt Broidy expects to be eventually pardoned by Trump. Broidy is going to plead guilty to relatively minor crimes involved in failure to disclose that he was a lobbyist attempting to stop a US criminal investigation into a multi-billion dollar fraud at a Malaysian investment fund, while protecting Trump and the Mercer family from far more serious charges involving the Saudis and Emeratis.

Can this crooked, rich, ugly man with an obscene watch give Trump 4 more years via the USPS?Louis DeJoy personally contributed over a million dollars to the NRC and to Trump's campaign, $32,300 to the North Carolina Republican Party, tens of thousands more to Republican congressional candidates and thousands to official Republican Party committees in Florida, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Michigan, Wisconsin, Missouri, Arizona, Minnesota, Iowa,

I believe the first time I heard of Elliott Broidy was when the NY Times revealed him to be working with a very right-wing shady Mercer family SuperPAC, Secure America Now (SAN), which Broidy was using to leverage the Trump regime into filling key positions with individuals favorable to-- meaning, like Broidy himself, bought off by-- the Saudi and UAE governments.

by NoahIt's clear to any sentient human that Donnie Head Case's recent pardon spree is a blatant attempt to officially normalize criminal activity by the upper class, its henchmen, or anyone who happens to have committed a crime that he finds inspiring. Trump sees himself as judge and jury now.

On Tuesday evening, Trump held one of his lunatic rallies for the pigs in the Wildwood, New Jersey area who support him and his newest puppet, former DCCC-Blue Dog Jeff Van Drew. Trump asserted, absurdly, that Van Drew was a symbol of the future.

by NoahThe Republican Party has now officially quintupled down in its alliance with Russia and its leader Vladimir Putin. They would have us believe that there was no Trump abuse of power in the matter of Ukraine or anything else, no obstruction, and that their Dear Leader Trump has done nothing wrong.

Last year USA Today columnist Paul Brandus reminded his readers that "We’ve had presidents who were used by members of their own family for personal gain, like Ulysses S. Grant. We’ve had presidents who stocked their Cabinet with greedy, self-serving mediocrities who took advantage of the public trust, like Warren G.

I was happy to see a George Washington University Politics Poll Tuesday morning showing Biden cratering. The two progressives in the race are tremendously outpacing the 3 corporate Dems still in contention:
