    If and when Mueller delivers indictments, I look forward to YF channeling Paul Muni as Emile Zola in the Dreyfuss Affair.

    I don't understand why this legislation is necessary. I was told by all the right people that to not pay these was to sabotage the ACA. But how can not doing something that's not legal be considered sabotage? I get so confused with all these rules.

    He’ll likely get a couple of indictments. Flynn and Manafort maybe. But they won’t be for campaign related activities.

    Though, they also would never have been indicted except for their involvement in the campaign.

    I wouldn't make assumptions about indictments. It wouldn't surprise me if you are right and it wouldn't surprise me if members of the Trump family got indicted, too.

    A 9-minute unedited video is still not enough sourcing for YF.

    Are y'all doubting the ability of a two-man shop whose largest job to date was running five miles of power line to successfully repair 2,400 miles of downed lines more than 3,300 miles from its home base!?! Well, Ryan Zinke doesn't doubt them - after all, he let his son work for them!

    Did you watch the video?

    She goes on and on about her role in rushing through the naming of the building. She provides a full timeline.

    She certainly did make it all about herself.

    Kelly did get the details wrong. He should clarify. It wasn’t the funding she was claiming credit for, but the naming of the building.

    We definitely should have zero tolerance for people who make things all about themselves.

    Can you imagine if the Clintons were in some way involved in that contract? YF would be bouncing around like Tigger.

    As to why I'm not giving you progress reports on the Russia investigation, Mueller runs a tight shop. There are not many leaks to talk about unless they come from Congress. Most of us seem to have processed this idea and are waiting for his report to be released or for indictments. You seem to enjoy playing "Are we there yet? When are we gonna get there? ".

    Be careful what you ask for, you might get it.

    You don’t really think the kind of firms that do this have crews just sitting around, do you? It’s a contracting gig. Whatever firm got the job was going to be merely making a market between other firms and the Puerto Rican power authority.

    I've seen people posthumously exonerated.

    Trump apparently is on the way to being posthumously convicted. America will get its pound of flesh, if it hasn't decomposed by then.

    Jesus, do you REALLY think all these people holding their breath waiting for the Mueller investigation to come to fruition will be satisfied if THAT is the outcome?

    Cue the sound of 70 million people giving a collective sigh before breaking out into melancholic song . . .
