That'd be lovely but Kava-rape and the corroded SCOTUS have their eyes on pardoning state charges. I'm not sure the GOP will do anything but brush it off and continue on their way at this point.Another Bear said:
It sure is quiet on the Mueller front but that's by design, respecting the protocol not to throw out something potentially disruptive during an election (Labor Day until Voting Day).
Trump is still going to get it. The Hill is reporting Mueller isn't going after obstruction charges like many thought. Nope Mueller is following the money and it appears there was plenty of foreign campaign donations (illegal), including from Saudi Arabia and Russia. Just like how Trump gave Putin a public BJ in Helsinki, the denial that the Saudis did anything like execute a journalist seems from the same page.
It appears the big target is Roger Stone, the man with a Nixon tramp stamp on his back. (9 individuals have been subpoenaed related to Stone.)
So, it looks like a nothingburger now but after the midterm, there's talk that Mueller is ready to drop the hammer.

That ad is very funny. One only wishes there was a radical left- as opposed to Schumer and Pelosi, the "radical" losers . Fact is, there are no demonstrations, no general strikes, no people in the streets, no student unrest. Only people tweeting pictures of themselves with a "resist" sign next to the heirloom tomatoes at the farmer's market.
Those things have happened, just not to the extreme the Republican ad claims. The great majority have been orderly marches and demonstrations, with only isolated instances of violence.Anarchistbear said:

Once again, can't make this stuff up.Quote:

The crowd cheers at the word "Nationalist." These people have no idea what that word connotes or that it is part of what forms "NAZI".B.A. Bearacus said:
Grand Wizard Mushroom Dick at Texas rally tonight:
"You know, they have a word. It sort of became old-fashioned. It's called a 'nationalist'. And I say really, we're not supposed to use that word. You know what I am? I am a nationalist. Use that word."

Maybe they don't want to get shot. Mushroom Dick would grant a pardon to the shooter from the podium.
