Seems like worse than a waste of money; it just riles us up even more!
I'm shopping in the Putin-Free section.
It's important to check the ingredients for anything with an "R" (Russiapublican) in it.
USA Today caught cheating on poll
USA Today breathlessly claims "Poll: Half of Americans say Trump is victim of a 'witch hunt' as trust in Mueller erodes!!!"
https://www.vox.com/2019/3/18/18271441/trump-tweet-usa-today-suffolk-poll-mueller-witch-hunt
...But the poll question on which that headline rests is seriously flawed. The question reads as follows: President Trump has called the Special Counsels investigation a witch hunt and said hes been subjected to more investigations than previous presidents because of politics. Do you agree?
Its true that 50.3 percent of the polls 1,000 respondents said yes to that question. But that doesnt necessarily mean they believe the Mueller investigation is a witch hunt. The prompt packs two different questions into one a poor strategy for a poll question. Respondents simply may have meant to agree that Trump has been subjected to more investigations than previous presidents because of politics a controversial but defensible position without intending to go further and indicate they think Trump is the victim of a witch hunt.
Big Dipper Toilet Guy gets caught lying to Congress
Looks like Wiseacre Whitaker is going to have to wipe that snarky smirk off of his face.

WASHINGTON The former acting attorney general Matthew G. Whitaker did not deny in a private meeting with House lawmakers on Wednesday that he had spoken to President Trump about an investigation in New York that had ensnared the president and his business, the Democratic chairman of the House Judiciary Committee said.
Speaking after the meeting, the chairman, Representative Jerrold Nadler of New York, presented Mr. Whitakers comments as being at odds with his public testimony last month before the Judiciary Committee. In that hearing, Mr. Whitaker generally would not say if he had communicated with the president about the case, which led to charges against Michael D. Cohen, Mr. Trumps former personal lawyer and fixer.
Why are porn star payments getting more coverage than crimes against humanity?
Trump is kidnapping and raping babies and seems proud of it. He's a Proud Boy all right.
Why the hell is this story not the lead every single day? Why are Stephen Miller, Kirsten Nielsen, and Donald J Trump not being prosecuted for human rights violations?

By 40 points!!!
Way to go Loudoun and Fairfax Counties! This is my district and I'm very happy to see we're going firmly blue. I met Jennifer Boysko at the polling place in the primary and she seems very genuine and smart.

Orange County Goes Blue
https://www.motherjones.com/kevin-drum/2018/11/orange-county-goes-blue/Here in Californias 45th congressional district, the heart of Reagan country and home of The OC, congresswoman Mimi Walters went all-in on Donald Trump. You can hardly blame her for that, I suppose, but today at 5 pm, on the seventh day of counting votes, it officially backfired:
Good. I have nothing against Walters aside from the usual (Republican, conservative, etc.), but this is precisely what needed to happen. One way or another, Republicans have to learn that this is the price they pay for allying themselves with a vicious bigot like Donald Trump. As votes continue to trickle in and more and more Republicans go down to defeat, they might finally be getting the message.
By the time this is over, Orange County will most likely be 100 percent blue. Nice work, Donald.
