Someone needs to make a little rap song... when Acosta gets accosta'd... accosted... I dunno there's a bar somewhere in there.

I love when Trump is up there waving his hands around with his index finger out constantly I cannot get over how tiny his hands really are... I thought they were exaggerating all this time but it's actually comical

Not quite t-rex level ridiculous with short little arms, but somewhere in between.

The ability for both "sides" to throw something so inconsequential like this into the biggest news story of the moment or even day is getting incredibly tiring.

Makes me wonder if there are any voices out there who speak with common sense.

Footnote to the midterms:

https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/...ns/1915457002/

Quote:
Notably, four senators out of the five voted against Kavanaugh's appointment to the high court. Only West Virginia Sen. Joe Manchin voted for Kavanaugh. Manchin was the only among the five to hold onto his Senate seat and fend off a Republican challenger.

Not sure if this is as disgusting as it gets or not, since her boss is known to be a pathological liar, but I'd say it definitely ranks right up there in the ugliness scale:

https://www.washingtonpost.com/techn...st-jim-acosta/


Quote:
White House press secretary Sarah Sanders on Wednesday night shared a video of CNN reporter Jim Acosta that appeared to have been altered to make his actions at a news conference look more aggressive toward a White House intern.

The edited video looks authentic: Acosta appeared to swiftly chop down on the arm of an aide as he held onto a microphone while questioning President Trump. But in the original video, Acosta’s arm appears to move only as a response to a tussle for the microphone. His statement, “Pardon me, ma’am,” is not included in the video Sanders shared.
I hope Acosta and the CNN sues Ms. Press Secretary for libel. Without a doubt, she will lose the case and get punished (by the court) for it.

The incident can arguably be interpreted as a man being physically assaulted by a woman. What is funny is the snowflake right trying to use the left tactic of female victimhood and claim Acosta is the aggressor while the snowflake left, in defense of Acosta, is forced to acknowledge that men can be the victims of assault by women. Civil discourse and rational discussion is dead, scoring political points is what matters. That is the state of politics right now.

Regarding Press Secretary Sanders possibly posting an altered video: it doesn't matter because #believewomen, right? I'm mean that's what the left wants, right?

Fake news!!!

Video has been sped up and it's not the full video.

This is worse then the time Trudeau was accused of elbowing a MP in the tits.

Downloading / converting / compression can cause frame drops and quality issues which can present the illusion of sped up video.

But anyway, this whole story is fucking retarded but of course it trends higher than anything else worth talking about.

Rosenstein still should be overseeing the investigation...

In line of succession it will go to Rosenstein

Whitaker just went on social media saying he is acting AG with Trumps approval... it never went to a vote or anything lol..

The timing of everything seems weird, Sessions must know Trump is fucked now that the mid terms are over. Trump got desperate and needed the investigation to stop.

As of right now Mueller is free to ignore anything Whitaker says or does and free to continue on.

Nope. Rosenstein will be next out.
And Whitaker will take charge.
Goodbye Mueller funding.

Surprise surprise
Suspected election fraud in Arizona, Georgia, and Florida.
Looks like days after the polls closed they're still counting "found" votes. Almost all of them Democrat too. How odd.

Look who the governors are in those states. It is a Jeb Bush appointee who is having problems in broward county florida. Rick Scott we is running for senator is also the current governor. It's under his watch this is happening.

I actually wouldn't mind, I think it is dragging on way too long. Wrap this thing up and let's start seeing some heads roll already ... starting with Trump Jr.
