Thursday, July 12, 2018

And another day proving that no, the two parties are not the same comes to a crazy close:

“I have the utmost respect for Congress in its oversight role, but I strongly believe today's hearing is just another victory notch in Putin's belt and another milestone in our enemies' campaign to tear America apart.” — Peter Strzok

The Peter Strzok Hearing Was a Total Fiasco, but One Moment Was Particularly Unreal.

Republicans finally got their chance Thursday to publicly question senior FBI agent Peter Strzok about his politically charged text messages with Lisa Page, a former FBI attorney he was personally involved with. It did not go exactly as the lawmakers hoped.

“Do you need your medication?” — Representative Bonnie Watson Coleman said to Representative Louie Gohmert after he brought up Strzok’s affair.

So today we learn the GOP is back to believing infidelity says something about one’s character. I’m sure it’s only because the person they attacked, Strzok, did something they didn’t like. Or they’re hypocrites. Or they’re just horrible people that prove the GOP has gone off the rails on the crazy train.

No one gives a flying fuck, Representative Gosar, that you’re a dentist.


Jose and his young son (age 3) made a claim for asylum when they got to the border, the “legitimate” route for families to take if they didn’t want to be separated under Trump's zero-tolerance policy — they were still separated for almost 3 months.

The Trump administration is implementing a new asylum policy at the border that will result in potentially thousands of asylum seekers being turned away before they can plead their case in court.

Obama Tops Public’s List of Best President in Their Lifetime, Followed by Clinton, Reagan. While not perfect by any stretch, the Obama presidency was a good one.

"O'Rourke, who has sworn off money from political action committees, also was able to outraise Cruz in the first three months of the year". Ted Cruz is s horrible person. Go Beto!

Ted Cruz campaign runs into issues with FEC. Federal campaign regulators have three times in the last year sent notices to the Cruz campaign - more than any Senator running for re-election this year - for taking tens of thousands of dollars more than legally allowed from dozens of donors. Three times. Ted Cruz is a horrible person. Go Beto!

Kushner cut off from viewing sensitive information because he doesn't have highest level security clearance. Jesus. Christ. Really? It took this long?

Records obtained by the Miami Herald suggest that during the tenure of former chief Raimundo Atesiano, the command staff pressured some officers into targeting random black people to clear cases. “If they have burglaries that are open cases that are not solved yet, if you see anybody black walking through our streets and they have somewhat of a record, arrest them so we can pin them for all the burglaries.” Absolutely disgusting.

A man, whose harassment of a woman wearing a Puerto Rico flag shirt was captured on video, has been charged with two felony counts of hate crime, a spokesperson for the Cook County prosecutor’s office said. Good.

John Schnatter is an asshole. He may have resigned, but I still encourage you to not eat at Papa John’s.

Stormy Daniels was arrested for allegedly allowing a customer to touch her while she was performing — her lawyer calls the arrest a “setup” that “reeks of desperation”.

"Mistake was made" in Stormy Daniels' strip club arrest, Ohio police chief says.

Miss Massachusetts contestant resigns her title over pageant’s MeToo mockery. A sexual assault survivor, Maude Gorman took a stand over a joke about the cancellation of the Miss America swimsuit competition. Apparently there are still a few people that have morals in this country and stand up for what is right.

Trash piles up in US as China closes door to recycling.

Is DEA Being Forced To Reschedule The CBD Compound? It has been said that 2018 will go down in history as one of the biggest years in the grand scheme of cannabis reform.

“Patience is bitter, but its fruit is sweet.” -- Jean-Jacques Rousseau

Life’s short. Live, love, create, and help others.

Until next time, my friends. Good night.
