Tatters
He’s frantic.
So General Flynn lies to the FBI and his life is destroyed, while Crooked Hillary Clinton, on that now famous FBI holiday “interrogation” with no swearing in and no recording, lies many times…and nothing happens to her? Rigged system, or just a double standard?

Many people in our Country are asking what the “Justice” Department is going to do about the fact that totally Crooked Hillary, AFTER receiving a subpoena from the United States Congress, deleted and “acid washed” 33,000 Emails? No justice!

Many more “people in our Country” are asking how this terrible man got elected president.
Congratulations to @ABC News for suspending Brian Ross for his horrendously inaccurate and dishonest report on the Russia, Russia, Russia Witch Hunt. More Networks and “papers” should do the same with their Fake News!

I never asked Comey to stop investigating Flynn. Just more Fake News covering another Comey lie!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 3, 2017
The guy who can’t open his mouth without lying accuses the FBI director he tried to bully into ignoring a serious crime…of lying. You couldn’t make it up.
Such a total miscarriage of Justice in San Francisco! https://t.co/MSIkBCKF3t

Taking a break from his own legal problems, the president of the US complains about the outcome of a trial.
Tainted (no, very dishonest?) FBI “agent’s role in Clinton probe under review.” Led Clinton Email probe. @foxandfriends Clinton money going to wife of another FBI agent in charge.

After years of Comey, with the phony and dishonest Clinton investigation (and more), running the FBI, its reputation is in Tatters – worst in History! But fear not, we will bring it back to greatness.

Returning to his own legal problems, the president of the US attacks his own FBI.
People who lost money when the Stock Market went down 350 points based on the False and Dishonest reporting of Brian Ross of @ABC News (he has been suspended), should consider hiring a lawyer and suing ABC for the damages this bad reporting has caused – many millions of dollars!

Report: “ANTI-TRUMP FBI AGENT LED CLINTON EMAIL PROBE” Now it all starts to make sense!

Frantic.
Fox news hates Clinton as much as Trump does. And they get people frothing at the mouth over her, salivating over the idea of locking her up. How dare she go into politics with her female form, then stick around as an OLD WOMAN, when we all know OLD WOMEN have no socially redeeming qualities.
By the way, if Trump was in my class, he would be getting his assignments dinged on points for frequent use of random caps. I don’t tolerate that in freshmen students, I don’t think we should tolerate it in POTUS. He should be impeached for crimes against the English language (and if he ever tries to speak any other languages, I imagine he commits huge crimes against them, too!)
Fat chance. (I mean the last parenthesis.)
Hey, did ya hear about the Distinguished President of Belarus?
Oppressed folks like to make jokes about their betters, and what better subject, heh?
So, Lukashenko boasts: “I can speak three languages!”
— Ooh, Excellency, please tell us more!
— Well, I can speak Belarussian, and Russian, and English!
— Ooh, Excellency, can you give us a sample of English please?
— No problem: “Hände hoch!”
— Ooh fabulous, Excellency. But that’s not English, it’s actually German.
— Hah! So now I can speak FOUR languages!
(From a reliable source acquainted with the facts.)
Where’s he getting acid washed from? I remember comments about bleach but not comments about a process used to make new jeans look worn out.

You know, this is the thing that pisses me off with the ANC too.
For the Trumpies:
You’ve got the Whitehouse, you’ve got congress, you’ve got the Senate, you’ve got the majority of governorships, hell you’ve probably got the local dog catcher. You are the fucking system.
And you know what, this is the same thing I found a little off-putting about Bernie Sanders. Okay I thought he was the best option in the last elections, he had genuine grass-roots support, his popularity rose the longer he was in the race, and he was capable of delivering Democratic policy in a soundbite format.
It also didn’t hurt that in a nation so proud of its Christianity he was a Jewish failed carpenter with a messiah complex.
Also he didn’t have the mountain of baggage Hillary Clinton had, but still, his message was essentially revolution, tear down the system.
But in the absence of some system of governance there isn’t a whole lot the government can do. Everything that has gotten built into the system by prior presidents was built so that there would be one more sphere of automation in government, one more thing that they wouldn’t have to think to hard about because it would be taken care of by the civil service.
One more thing to make their jobs easier. Bureaucracy doesn’t exist in order to hold government back, it exists to pump the brakes on bad decisions and make implementing the good ones easier. It exists to give government the information it needs in order to run.
In the absence of a system, inertia reigns supreme. You don’t get less corruption by cutting out your internal controls, less injustice by weakening bodies designed to bring about justice. In order to achieve anything, it takes people, and competent ones at that.
Well, what has your guy been doing since he got into power? He’s been trying to tear those systems down – whether it is the EPA or the diplomatic corps. Has he actually achieved anything?
No because his entire regime has been about “fighting the system” – the very thing he’s supposed to be running. He’s essentially been taking the wheels off the car he’s driving and wondering why he isn’t getting anywhere.
And you’ve been along for the ride. If you want to achieve stuff have some respect for what the system is. Stop pissing and moaning about how hard your job is, while unsolving the problems of the past and thus making it harder than it needs to be.
Republicans, stop whinging and start doing.
