    Fetuses aren't children. I'm not sure why you have such trouble forming coherent thoughts, but that's for you to figure out.

    Crimea was taken BACK by Russia.

    Kinda like MLB took back its donation to Cindy Hyde-Smith.

    If the recipient of a gift is no longer deemed worthy of said gift . . . you take it back.

    Crimeans by and large are HAPPY where they are. The number of Americans who actually care about that fact is . . .

    We will NOT give Alaska back!

    I keed, I keed.

    Say, speaking of which, did Sarah Palin leave Alaska? Saw something fairly recently about that I thought. Could be mistaken.

    Anyway..

    Noted Liberals keep saying things

    Here's another Klown Klassic ...

    President Trump said he’d fix the debt.
    It’s now at its highest level since World War II.

    Became aware of Jesse Kelly over the last 24 hours and Twitter banned him today, I guess.

    I didn't see anything that would warrant that.

    Jesse Kelly - KPRC AM 950

    I don't agree with many, many things he posted, but didn't see anything that was bannable.

    I miss something? If he didn't cross a line he should still have an account.

    I think this is worth pondering:

    All of this is a reminder that the premise that presidents will keep their fingers off the scales of justice is a relatively recent development in our history, dating only as far back as the outrage over Richard M. Nixon’s abuses that were uncovered during Watergate.

    Nixon was far from the first to see no barrier between the White House and the Justice Department. Theodore Roosevelt stage-managed antitrust prosecutions. Lyndon B. Johnson had the FBI spy on rival factions in his own party at the 1964 Democratic convention. And, most famously, John F. Kennedy appointed his brother as attorney general.

    What grew up after Watergate was an informal policy, initiated by President Gerald Ford, under which presidents limit the number of White House officials who could communicate with the Justice Department about active investigations, and the circumstances under which they could do so.

    But presidents do not have to make those policies public and can change them at will.

    Among the many things that will have to be addressed by law after Fucko is dragged off to the pork sausage factory of history.

    One of the real root causes of our current crisis situation is that the Founders, as well as succeeding generations of lawmakers, never anticipated even the possibility of a serving president acting openly and unapologetically as a criminal.

    It was always presumed that an unethical president would be a shifty manipulator fiddling around with technicalities and trivia.
