So what is the big deal about 'Anglo-American'? The roots of our legal system in English common law? That the term Sheriff is a early medieval bastardization of two Anglo-Saxon words meaning 'land' and 'guardian'? What's the big deal and why the hrummphing from the snowflakes on both sides of the aisle?

I mean really, we have the Anti-Christ sitting in the Oval Office and people are worked up about a speech that Sessions gave?

It's not a big deal. Unless you think Anglo-American is a dogwhistle for white supremacy.

The Antichrist will appear as a person/man who can speak quite eloquently, will be loved, but fool everyone. Sound familiar? I know personally people who really do believe this is 0bama, he fits the bill perfectly.

Trump is blustering bombastic loudmouth who has many laughing and hating him, farthest thing from the Antichrist.

Good grief.

I thought he was just a demon. (according to Alex Jones and half of the state of Alabama)

The stupid shit people believe...

17 dead, many more wounded. Awful stories from students. This is the 12th school shooting of 2018.

How does this guy still have a job? (No not Kelly)

Also, Talent's boy Pruitt has quite expensive travel tastes. Pruitt's staff claims he must always travel first class or busines class for 'security reasons'.

Its comedy hour in Washington. Chump's lawyer paid off the porn star, just because.

"In a private transaction in 2016, I used my own personal funds to facilitate a payment of $130,000 to Ms. Stephanie Clifford," Michael Cohen said in a statement. "Neither the Trump Organization nor the Trump campaign was a party to the transaction with Ms. Clifford, and neither reimbursed me for the payment, either directly or indirectly."

When asked why he made the payment, Cohen told CNN: "Just because something isn't true doesn't mean that it can't cause you harm or damage. I will always protect Mr. Trump."


Golly, I can't even acknowledge (due to an NDA) my extramarital affair with Putin's cock holster back in 2006. Since truth doesn't matter, where's my $130k?

Jon, note the lawyerly phrasing of his denial of his reimbursement denial...he only denied that neither the Campaign nor the Trump Org paid him back. That's not a denial Trump or one of the kids paid him directly.

This all happened just a week after the Access Hollywood tape came out when the Trump team was reeling.

Also an update...Stormy Daniels' manager says Cohen violated the terms of their NDA and Stormy's free to talk about Trump's sexual escapades all she pleases.

Of course he had a fling with Stormy. I am not sure it matters, though.

At least 130 people in the White House can't get permanent security clearance, 47 of whom report only to Trump himself

If you have Showtime 'A Life in 12 Bars' (Eric Clapton) is now showing. Well worth the watch.

[AlabamAlum]

A lot of that stuff is silly. Like to be excluded because you took a hit off a joint 6 years ago.

I would never push this as an issue to debate... but it is completely hilarious.

The amount of edits on Kusher/Sessions/Flynn SF86 has to be such a F****** headache. Just plead ignorance with every amendment.

"Oh. Well, ya I guess he is foreign." - said probably 1000x now.

Oh the games politicians play.
