Ok, Trump is under investigation for corruption.

Well. Then stop saying he is corrupt until it is proven. After 3 years I do not think it is going to happen. Repetition does not make a lie a fact.

@Region Philbis,
It's probably easier not to tell him he's being impeached, see if he can figure it out for himself.

All partisan hacks with a uniform. And proven to be so. Fail, as usual.

Good news for the country and every citizen.

Fox News host: 'I thought Americans would cheer,' not boo, Trump

Aldous J Pennyfarthing

This is what happens when you spend your entire life inside a hermetically sealed couch cushion fort, and the only people allowed inside are Sean Hannity and Lou Dobbs. You act genuinely surprised when Donald Trump gets heckled and booed at a baseball game.

Yesterday, during Fox News’ The Five — which is apparently five times as meretricious and stupid as any other Fox show — the panel discussed the gruff reception Trump received at game 5 of the World Series Sunday night.

First came the obligatory appeal to civility — because the “office” of the president deserves respect, even if the person occupying that office shits on it every day like an industrial pressure-wash hose.

Newsweek:

Commentator Capri Cafaro criticized the fans that booed for failing to show respect for the president. "Everybody has their First Amendment right to express themselves however they want, but I would say this, regardless of whether or not you agree with President Trump or not he is the President of the United States and this is the World Series," she said. "I may not agree with pretty much anything President Trump does, but even if I felt that way, I would refrain from booing and just be silent and that's what you should do."

Uh, that’s not what you should do. If the criminal pr*sident wants to step out of his bubble, he should be prepared for this. If the DOJ weren’t protecting him he’d likely be locked up by now. The last thing he deserves is immunity from public shame.

The funniest, and most head-scratching, take was this one, though:

Co-host Dana Perino admitted that she never expected that Trump would get booed by the crowd. "I'm proved completely naive," she said. "I was the one who thought the president should go to the game. I never thought he would get booed. I thought Americans won't do that, Americans would cheer."


Ha ha ha ha ha! Americans are fed up with this 20-clown-car pileup, Dana. There are a lot of Americans who don’t get their news exclusively from Fox, and who would gouge their own eyes out with an ice-fishing auger before they’d ever attend a Trump rally.

Most Americans voted against the ocher abomination. And for the past two and a half years, most of us have disapproved of him — many of us strongly.

You expected cheers why? And in Washington, D.C., no less?

Yeah, you are naive. At least you got that part right.

Is Trump still singeing your sphincter? Dear F*cking Lunatic: 101 Obscenely Rude Letters to Donald Trump and its breathlessly awaited sequel Dear F*cking Moron: 101 More Letters to Donald Trump by Aldous J. Pennyfarthing are the salve you need! Reviewers have called these books “hysterically funny,” “cathartic,” and “laugh-out-loud” comic relief. And you can get them for less than the price of a cup of coffee ... or a black-market Xanax ... or five minutes of therapy. It’s time to heal, my friends. Buy now!

Democrats win full control of Virginia's government, paving the way for a voting rights expansion

Democrats flipped both chambers of Virginia's state legislature on Tuesday, giving them full control over state government for the first time in a quarter century—and opening the door to a wave of reforms that would make voting easier and protect the right to vote. When lawmakers convene in early January, these are just some of the issues they’ll be poised to tackle:

Automatic voter registration
Same-day voter registration
True early voting (instead of just one week of in-person absentee voting)
Removing the excuse requirement to vote absentee by mail
Extending Election Day polling hours
Curtailing the disenfranchisement of voters who have felony convictions
Legislators in several other states have passed many of these policies, but there’s still more that Virginia Democrats can consider:

Softening or repealing the state’s voter ID requirement
Setting campaign contribution limits in place of the existing system that allows unlimited donations to candidates
Establishing public campaign financing
Setting up vote centers where any voter within a city or county may cast a ballot instead of just at their local polling place
Joining the National Popular Vote Compact to help elect the president by popular vote
Enacting a constitutional amendment to reform redistricting
Ending prison gerrymandering by counting prisoners at their last address for redistricting purposes instead of where they're incarcerated
Enacting a constitutional amendment to move state and local elections from odd-numbered years to even-numbered years (and thereby improve turnout)
Enacting a constitutional amendment explicitly guaranteeing the right to vote in free and fair elections
Adopting instant-runoff voting (aka ranked-choice voting)
Letting voters opt into permanently receiving absentee mail ballots
Establishing universal voting by mail with prepaid postage
Mandating barcodes on mail ballots so that voters can track the status of their ballot to ensure it gets counted
Notifying absentee mail voters of any problems with their signatures on their ballots and giving them a chance to correct it
If reforms like these were to become law, Virginia would go from being one of the worst states for voting access to one of the best. Now that Democrats have won, they can transform this dream into reality.

@Region Philbis,
Mc Connell saw an election where the Republican was down over 20 points. Trump came and made that election as close as it could be. Mc Connell is probably pretty happy seeing Trumps power in getting the vote out. So, like usual, another fail. Your spin is spin and nothing more. Laughing

Trump-backed 'conscience' rule for healthcare workers voided by U.S. judge
Jonathan Stempel NOVEMBER 6, 2019 / 11:18 AM / UPDATED AN HOUR AGO


NEW YORK (Reuters) - A federal judge on Wednesday voided a White House-backed rule that would have made it easier for doctors and nurses to avoid performing abortions on religious or moral grounds.

U.S. District Judge Paul Engelmayer in Manhattan said the so-called “conscience” rule was unconstitutionally coercive, by letting the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) withhold billions of dollars of federal funding from healthcare providers unless they complied.

“Wherever the outermost line where persuasion gives way to coercion lies, the threat to pull all HHS funding here crosses it,” Engelmayer wrote in a 147-page decision.

The judge also said the rule conflicted with federal laws governing the obligations of employers to accommodate workers’ religious objections, and hospitals to provide emergency treatment to patients who could not afford it.

Engelmayer’s decision covered a lawsuit by New York state and 22 other states and municipalities, as well as two lawsuits by Planned Parenthood and other healthcare providers.

HHS and the U.S. Department of Justice did not immediately respond to requests for comment. The rule was scheduled to take effect on Nov. 22.

U.S. President Donald Trump, a Republican, has made expanding religious liberty a priority, and the conscience rule has drawn support from abortion opponents.

Neither the office of New York Attorney General Letitia James nor Planned Parenthood immediately responded to requests for comment.

The states and municipalities have said the rule could undermine their ability to provide effective healthcare, and upset their efforts to accommodate workers’ beliefs while ensuring that hospitals and other businesses treated patients effectively.

Opponents of the rule have also said it could deprive gay, transgender and other patients of needed healthcare because providers might be deemed less worthy of treatment.

HHS countered that the rule would help enforce “conscience protection” laws that have been on the books for decades.

Engelmayer said these provisions “recognize and protect undeniably important rights,” but the government’s rulemaking “was sufficiently shot through with glaring legal defects.”

The state and municipal plaintiffs are led by Democrats or often lean Democratic.

They also include New York City, Chicago and Washington, D.C.; the states of Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Hawaii, Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, Virginia and Wisconsin; and Cook County, Illinois.

The states’ case is New York et al v. U.S. Department of Health and Human Services et al, U.S. District Court, Southern District of New York, No. 19-04676.

@Region Philbis,
And states like Kentucky elected Republicans to every other state level office. Other states still have Republican majorities in the State legislatures. Reich is a hack and a liar. He has failed, and the meme has failed, AGAIN. Shocked Reich is the idiot that wanted Trump's election annulled.

Convicted, fined and guilty.

The wheels of justice may turn slowly but they eventually roll over those it the way...

One of many more of Trump's corrupt, criminal convictions to come...

Martha Stewart went to jail for a much lesser offence than this.
