Heck, I did that last week. We were eating out and started with salad. When the entree showed up sooner than expected, I still had a bite of salad to finish, then just naturally started in on the venison ragout with the same fork. Oh the SHAME, the EMBARRASSMENT, the DIFFICULTY of getting a decent sized forkful of dinner. Oh. Wait. Geeze. So I swapped to the larger fork. I’m not sure anybody noticed at all.
The progressives willfully ignore that Trump was indicted twice on less. After seven years of chasing Trump and they call the Hunter Biden investigation a witch hunt. Comer has at least released what they have found instead of Schiff always claiming there was more than had been disclosed (and there never was).

CIA admits to losing dozens of informants around the world: NYT
Leading counterintelligence officials issued a memo to all of the CIA’s global stations saying that a concerning number of U.S. informants were being captured and executed.
The CIA’s counterintelligence mission center investigated dozens of incidents in the last few years that involved killings, arrests or compromises of foreign informants. In an unusual move, the message sent via a top secret cable included the specific number of agents killed by other intelligence agencies, according to The New York Times.
Officials said that level of detail is a sign of the significance of the cable. Announcing the specific number of killings is rare as that figure is typically held under wraps from the public and even from some CIA employees, the Times noted.
The cable, which also cited the issue of putting “mission over security,” comes amid recent efforts by countries like Russia, China, Iran and Pakistan to find CIA informants and turn them into double agents, the Times reported.
Kinzinger — who has previously fallen for false information about the war in Ukraine himself — went on to accuse Carlson of promoting lies:
This is a massive blow to the Russian republic, and a massive blow to their military effort, and I will also say it’s a massive blow to the people here in the United States, like say Tucker Carlson, who have been parroting Putin talking points, to have Prigozhin, the head of Wagner himself, say those have been lies. There have been a lot of people parroting those Putin lies, and the head of Wagner even just said those are lies.
PMC Wagner marched towards Moscow on Friday after its leader Yevgeny Prigozhin vowed to “punish” the Russian military leadership he has feuded with since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Prigozhin accused the Russian military of killing his men and claimed the war had been justified by lies.
Eastman’s plot to subvert the 2020 election and defraud millions of American voters will almost certainly be central to the next two indictments facing Trump, those being conspiracy charges likely to be filed this summer by prosecutor Fani Willis in Georgia and special counsel Jack Smith in Washington, D.C.
Like so many other attorneys, advisers and aides who have fallen under Trump’s spell and done his bidding, Eastman must now face the consequences of his actions. Last week his trial before the California Bar Court began in Los Angeles, with prosecutor Duncan Carling arguing that Eastman should be disbarred as “the architect of a legal strategy aimed at keeping former President Donald Trump in power, [who had] concocted a baseless theory and made false claims of fraud in an attempt to overturn the 2020 election.”
“No experience”: Judge rejects John Eastman’s “expert” witness at disbarment hearing
All of Eastman’s legal misconduct, Carling continued, “was done with one singular purpose: To obstruct the electoral count on Jan. 6 and stop Vice President Pence from certifying Joe Biden as the winner of the election.” Furthermore, the prosecutor argued, Eastman knew exactly what he was doing, and was “fully aware in real time that his plan was damaging the nation.”
As silly as this toon is, there does seem to be a good bit of truth to it. With their party, they have an ex-president, twice impeached, largely responsible for killing off tens of thousands of Americans with Covid with his stupid cures, lying almost incessantly, and on and on it goes. But, with the other party they have an honest man as president, whose son is well less than perfect, but owns up to his faults, and the Repubs figure daddy Biden has to go. That’s fair.s/ So with the Dems you have maybe 3% evil compared to the Repubs with their 33% evil, a 10:1 ratio of evil. So, yeah, that 1 is big enough for a Dem death.
Definitely not an impeachable offense, but Biden looked like an idiot placing his hand over his heart during the national anthem of India! Eventually he realized it, and slid his hand down slowly, as if no one would notice.
Amateurs! Democrats already impeached President Trump once by his 3rd year in office. Also, on their way to impeaching him a 2nd time about a call he made re Biden having any connections to Ukraine.
What must not be overlooked, those behind the republicans are familiar and have operatives expert at manipulation of facts and people. They have people writing bills and laws for republicans to present, and people manipulating the republicans and the general public. They are working for the long game, and few know what they plan to Achieve.
I would hope it was for some advancement of humans and society and benifits to the planet, but my experience with humans and power makes me conclude that is not the case.
I endured 4 years of anguish as I watched helplessly while TFG exposed and capitalized differences in our country for his personal and financial benefit and while he dismantled our overseas relationships with our long-standing NATO partners. All the while, breaking laws and admitting to them. It’s as though he thinks he’ll get the same pass Ford gave Nixon. IMO, he had a 50/50 chance until he was indicted under the Espionage Act. I don’t think, if convicted, any convicted traitor would get a Presidential pardon.
