    You read the part in the transcript where it says Fusion wanted to protect its sources because the Russians have a habit of killing people .... right?


    No. Of course you didn't.

    I love the part where he declares that Feinstein "Must have tough Primary!" as if he has any pull in Democratic primaries in California, or anywhere else. Does he think he'll motivate a credible candidate to primary her from the right? Because by tangling with Trump she's protecting her left.

    Doesn't he know that a threat from him to "primary" a political opponent to keep him/her in line only has potential teeth when levied against a Republican?

    OK, I guess that's a rhetorical question.

    No, you've just gone from genial board doofus to a liar and hypocrite of the first order. You're like the lead member of a cult. It's been sad to watch, but we all make choices.

    I'm not talking about DACA. I'm talking about the border wall.

    It's hard to read James Risen's piece in The Intercept about how he fought with his Times editors for a year to get the NSA-is-spying-on-is-without-warrants story into the paper, and also read yesterday'a Fusion testimony of how willing the Times was to print "FBI sees no collusion with Russia" based on lying FBI sources (which led to Steele walking away).

    I'm a big believe The Times is doing their best, and trying to get a lot of difficult decisions right, but I also sure wish they'd do a better job.

    A. What's the evidence that a source has "already been killed".

    2. If there was some concern about releasing the transcript, maybe Feinstein should have not taken the grandstanding move of releasing it, claiming it was in the interest of transparency, and then redacting it selectively.

    It's posts like this that show you're just here for the trolling.

    No sane - let alone a very stable genius - could see that performance yesterday as a win for Trump. He looked idiotic and confused. He didn't even know his own stance on the issue.

    I'll take it over the spectacle you've made of yourself.

    They're both part of the immigration issue. If you're going to talk about the cost of one, don't lie to me and tell ma that DACA is going to be a net gain.

    So, come on folks, now that you've seen the CBO score, who'd like to answer the question, what does DACA cost?

    No penalty for looking up the answer before replying.

    “Dirty Dianne” would’ve been a better nickname by Trump. He obviously never listened to Michael Jackson.

    I didn't lie to you. Please find anywhere where I said DACA is going to be a net gain. I was talking about the border wall. Stop putting words in my mouth.

    Your judgments mean zero to any of us anymore. I wouldn't trust you to preheat an oven.
