Whew! You did yeoman’s work today Ron. Excellent reporting. Couldn’t not comment on this little gem;

“… Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY): “Putin has spent the entire year trying to play Trump for a fool.”

Trying? For only this one year?

Nancy hit it on the nose years ago. Putin owns the dictator, lock, stock and barrel.

If he did what he’s been accused of by Katie Johnson, he should be removed from office, tried, and convicted. We cannot allow a pedophile to continue to sit in our Oval Office.

I recently heard Katie's account of what took place with Pedo Prez. Totally sincere and completely believable. Some of what she says Trump said to her and another girl are so like him. I felt ill after and my heart ached for this woman whose childhood was stolen from her.

Of course this peace plan has come from the Russians. It's no peace plan--it's a surrender plan. Putin wants all of Ukraine back, and he won't go for any peace plan unless it includes THAT in it.

Lady, maybe you saw Conor Lamb's 11/21 Meidas guest article " A Few Good Dems Told the Truth and Trump Couldn't Handle It" where he wrote of his own military experience and used the film "A Few Good Men" to exemplify the point the six dem veterans were making with regard to the dilemma of illegal orders. His work is really well written and perfectly outlines the issue.

Some political analysts on Ali Velshi's MSNOW Sunday program today discussed the furor and issue at length, both coming to the inevitable conclusion that if such orders weren't (or may already have been in Venezuela) elemental to DT's intent he'd not have made such an ongoing tirade in response to their speech. A chilling sobering realization. One has to wonder.

i've said this before but i'm going to say it again; at some point, Trump will absolutely order troops to do something highly illegal. My guess he will order troops to kill US citizens. I suspect that the Democrats who made that video feel he will commit a crime using our military and are trying to remind them that an illegal order is illegal and can be disobeyed.

Sweet baby Jesus! Now that I know what THAT word means, I am not the least bit surprised RFK Jr. partakes.

Utter heartbreak. Poor Tatiana Kennedy Schlossberg. Nobody wanted to listen when Caroline, who is very private, made a video and said what a horrendous mistake it would be to make him.Secy of Health, as did his own sister!!! When these people.tell you something like that listen to them. Bill Cassidy thinks he can tap-dance away from his fatal mistake of voting for him. I hope he is primaried, and loses his Senate seat. RFK promised him he wouldn't change the wording on the CDC website about vaccines and autism, and so "he got his vote". Well he just changed the website. Take.responsibility Bill Cassidy, and if you can't, you don't deserve your job.

He's his grandson. Plus he not only a Kennedy, but his mother Ethel's family (The Skakel's) were no bargain either. Her nephew is the one who was arrested and went to trial and was convicted for killing his neighbor Martha Moxley. Joe P was an absolutely horrible human being and his entire family has suffered for his sins and why they call it the "Kennedy Curse" but RFK Jr is so awful and horrible on his own I hope HIS kids are careful they don't have to pay for HIS sins. His wife (their mother) hung herself from the rafters of their home after she found his diary of the women he cheated with, how he rated them, etc.

teresafbrooks's avatar

And McConnell could have prevented this all had he himself been enough of a patriot and had he upheld his own oath of office by leading the indictment of Trump in the U.S. Senate after he (Trump) had been impeached for causing the January 6 insurrection against the constitution.

I’m sure he has plenty of ways of justifying his lack of integrity at that crucial moment on other forces. But he failed the nation in a way we may never recover from. In view of that his comment now almost seems hypocritical.

That is, unless he uses his remaining influence now to support Rep Al Green’s articles of impeachment, and then support indictment. Trump is breaking his oath every day. He is a criminal president. Rep. Greene gave a powerful speech at a rally to impeach, convict and remove Trump which was held at the Washington Monument on Saturday Nov 22 and attended by thousands.

See the video of the rally on DRM News on YouTube. Also reports on it by a lead organizer, Jessica Denson Lights On.
