Per the Dossier, Cohen went to Prague in August/Sept to payoff the Russian hackers and clean up Manafort’s mess.

Subsequently, a top Russian hacker was arrested in Prague in October of 2016 by the Czech.

Two weeks ago Paul Ryan went to Prague to get the Russian hacker extradited to the United States.  Russia was also fighting to get the hacker extradited.

All these events are related IMO

I can't fathom the reaction from Fox News if Obama had granted a pardon to someone because "people told him the defendant was treated very, very unfairly." 

The tiny scandals within the daily barrage of bullshit from this administration are just mosaic pieces within an avalanche of scandal that would otherwise be a nightmare for any other administration on an individual basis.  The media and the public have been conditioned to ignore the fetid mosquito pond in the corner of the yard and instead focus on the tsunami wave that's curling over the entire coastline.

The same people who were using an electron microscope on the seal on Obama's birth certificate.

Fox would be calling for the FBI and Delta Forces to raid the Oval Office with a kill order if a fraction of this shit storm happened under Obama. 

I never thought the word "leak" would have so much relevance in American political discourse with so many levels of meaning.  Leak.  Leaker.  Leakers.  So much leakage.  

Trumps constant concern with leakers is yet another projection and perhaps also a tell.

Huh? That is like deep and shit man. But we still have to fix this republic. Hopefully the bullshit tax cut that gave everything to the 1% can be fixed and we can finally work on fixing the ACA or do whatever we need to do to fix healthcare. Maybe we need to all re-study the Perot Charts for how to get ourselves out of this mess. Mainly listening to him about term limits, PACS, and other shit that should have happened at least 2 decades ago. We need to fucking quit being depressed fat and lazy and  get off the couch and do the right thing to right the ship. We have to stop making fun of the dumbshit that voted from Trump and bring them along somehow. Perot mentioned spending a lot of money on re-education and training. We need to do that. Fucking hell, we need to fucking take the bitter hard pill of real work! Or this fuckhead is going to keep happening over and over and over again. FUCK THAT!

The first thing this country needs to do is stop hating poor people.

Just my opinion.

I agree, but the CBO prediction that the national debt will rise by $1.6 trillion in June isn't on the tip of anyone's mind right now.  In any normal scenario, the GOP would be scrambling to explain these policies and results.  They'd have huge problems with their own constituents. 

The possibility of the president having an illegitimate child was like 9 hours ago.  That story has been washed over 3 times since.  The bar has been lowered in a way that is way beyond how intensely America focuses on individual issues.

Let's hope no Russians or Iranians do.

War, uh, what is it good for...distracting the country from the President’s various scandals. 

Reports from a few mins ago say decision to strike has been made, trump will speak on it soon.

SPB stated a couple of days ago that they have been cooperating with the special counsel. 

Now Cohen's computer when he had an office at SPB would be SPB property and they could have allowed the investigators come in and mirror/copy that hard drive and whatever was found is the basis of the warrant.

I know they say they are cooperating, but being the lawyers for Cambridge Analytica, I very strongly doubt they actually are.

Cohen had his own office, own equipment and his own key. Supposedly, SPB couldn't open his office. We'll see.

I think we are definitely approaching an end game here.  Trump was about to sit down with Mueller and would have perjured himself by the end of his second sentence.  That opportunity is now out the window after Cohen getting raided.  Mueller had to expect something juicy as fuck from Cohen's files given that he chose to move forward as though Trump's interview no longer held any importance.

Trump was NEVER going to sit down with Mueller. That was all TALK.

President Trump is preparing to support far-reaching legislation to reform federal marijuana prohibition so that states can enact their own cannabis laws without interference.

"Since the campaign, President Trump has consistently supported states' rights to decide for themselves how best to approach marijuana," U.S. Sen. Cory Gardner (D-CO) said in a statement. "Late Wednesday, I received a commitment from the President that the Department of Justice's rescission of the Cole memo will not impact Colorado's legal marijuana industry. Furthermore, President Trump has assured me that he will support a federalism-based legislative solution to fix this states' rights issue once and for all."

In a briefing with reporters on Friday afternoon, White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders confirmed the development, calling Gardner's statement "accurate."

"We're always consulting Congress about issues including states' rights, of which the president is a firm believer," she said.

Bolton has barely been on the job for a few days 

Today:

1. Trump hires new attorney, argues for temporary restraining order against his own DOJ in court

2. It's revealed that Trump's attorney, Michael Cohen, brokered another hush money deal for a top Trump fundraiser

3. Trump pardoned Scooter Libby

4. Trump bombs Syria

Over/under on how long it takes for him to deviate from the script and start talking about Comey or Hillary?

How much of a heads up did they give the Russians this time???

Enough time to allow Assad to move all his good shit to Russian bases.

3 minutes. And smart money’s on the under.

Trump sounds like an aggy that has been screaming at his television all day.

He also has the sniffles again.

Lawyers for President Donald Trump and his longtime personal attorney Michael Cohen went to court Friday trying to stop federal prosecutors from getting at private material — but wound up with a judge ordering them to disclose Cohen’s client list in public.

U.S. District Judge Kimba Wood on Friday ordered attorneys for Cohen to hand over a list of Cohen’s law clients and proof of their relationship by 10 a.m. Monday, so she can decide whether materials seized from Cohen’s office by federal law enforcement agents last week should be protected by attorney-client privilege.

That list will be a public record, Wood said, because the identities of an attorney’s clients are not subject to attorney-client privilege unless the mere name itself would reveal the kind of advice sought or given.

Wood’s order raises the possibility of further embarrassing disclosures involving Cohen, who is already at the center of a legal dispute involving adult-film actress Stormy Daniels, who is suing the president to void a nondisclosure agreement negotiated by Cohen concerning a sexual encounter Daniels says she had with Trump in 2006.

This.  Seriously.

Ten years from now, when the miniseries (do they use the title "Downfall" again?  Because the wink wink aspect would be hilarious) telling the story of this admin, and its epic insanity, fuckuppery, and the vast swath of rubble it created, is aired....there will be people who simply cannot believe that it's a work of truth, not fiction.  Hell, I might be among them.  This administration is an exponentially larger shitshow than I even have the ability to comprehend.  Truly...it bottles the mind.
