So…Manafort client gets sweet deal from Trump Treasury and invests in Senate Majority Leader's home state as pay off. All legal. All corrupt as hell. https://t.co/iig21sSkjG
This also happens to be Trump language. But what they fail to understand is that running to be the leader of the Democratic Party as an anti-Democrat doesn't actually work with Democrats. https://t.co/80GzKybvAi
SO sick of the whining from this guy. Always the victim, everybody's cheating but him, he's being robbed, yada yada yada. We've seen this movie before and we've had ENOUGH.
Trumpâs lawless threat to ship busloads of migrants to SF, NYC, Seattle, and other âsanctuary citiesâ again gives the lie to his ânational emergencyâ claims about needing to wall them out of the country altogether.
Investigators in a U.S. attorney's office were able to watch as a special unit of the Chinese military, sitting in Shanghai, broke into the computer systems of American companies at night. But the U.S. companies didn't want to go public with the news. https://t.co/ImvjleTpYg pic.twitter.com/7FKrxXhTNm

Pete Buttigieg:
âAnd thatâs why Iâm here today. To tell a different story than make America great again. Because thereâs a myth being sold to industrial and rural communities, the myth that we can stop the clock and turn it back. It comes from people who think the only way to speak to communities like ours is through resentment and nostalgia. Theyâre selling an impossible promise of returning to a bygone era that was never as good as advertised to begin with. The problem is that theyâre telling us to look for greatness in all the wrong places. Because if thereâs one thing that the city of South Bend has shown itâs that there is no such thing as an honest politics that revolves around the word again. It is time to walk away from the politics of the past and towards something totally different. So thatâs why Iâm here today.â

Bring it on. Barr and Trump can color code it right onto their criminal arses.
How about we give Barr/Trump Productions a lesson they will never forget. Get ready with the boiling oil scenario. And imo we should take note of exactly which media plays ball with the Trumpettes.

Trump was very quick to tweet about the fire at Notre Dame so I guess itâs safe to assume the fire wasnât started by a white copâs son and Notre Dame isnât a black church in America.

We have a new 2nd Circuit vacancy. Obama appointee Christopher Droney is stepping down. If Trump fills the seat, the Second Circuit would FLIP en banc to a one seat Republican appointee majority. https://t.co/km9GJF0Smo
Trump is actually tweeting at the French how to put out the fire. Whatâs French for âhey, dumbfuck gameshow host, weâll take care of the fire so why donât you turn off the tv and do your damn job?â
Notre Dame is one of the worldâs great treasures, and weâre thinking of the people of France in your time of grief. Itâs in our nature to mourn when we see history lost â but itâs also in our nature to rebuild for tomorrow, as strong as we can. pic.twitter.com/SpMEvv1BzB
For centuries, Notre Dame Cathedral has withstood wars, revolutions, and the test of time. It is a symbol of faith & a testament to history. And even as our hearts break to see it burn today during the holiest week of the year for Catholics, I have faith that it will rise again.
We are very sad to hear about the fire at Notre Dame @notredameparis. First Lady Michelle Obama visited the Cathedral in April 2009. #NotreDame #notredamedeparis #NOTRE_DAME #NotreDameFire #POTUS #BarackObama #MichelleObama #Paris #NotreDameCathedral #POTUS44 pic.twitter.com/jy2n9RsLsb

I remember the grandeur and beauty of the Notre Dame Cathedral. My late husband and I spent five days in Paris in the summer of 1996. After touring the Cathedral, saying prayers, and sitting quietly in the pews soaking in the quiet peaceful surroundings we left the church and sat on the concrete steps outside. We took out our city map and studied it while resting our weary feet among locals that were sitting on the steps eating baguettes and cheeses. So sad to lose such a historical site! Losing the Cathedral during Holy Week is cause for additional sadness.
The loss of the Cathedral of Notre Dame touches the same feeling inside me that I am experiencing with the treatment of the Mueller report. The idea that I will not see the entirety of either in my lifetime is disconcerting.
Just devastating to see the Notre Dame Cathedral burning. Absolutely devastating. The monumentâs history, art, and iconic architecture is irreplaceable. The people of Paris, France, and Catholics around the world are in our prayers. #NotreDame pic.twitter.com/u8qutd3AkR

The majesty of Notre Dameâthe history, artistry, and spiritualityâtook our breath away, lifting us to a higher understanding of who we are and who we can be. Being here in Paris tonight, my heart aches with the people of France. Yet I know that Notre Dame will soon awe us again. https://t.co/p1mIDMbwe1
Art and architecture have a unique ability to help us connect across our differences and bring people together in important ways. Thinking of the people of Paris and praying for every first responder trying to save this wonder.

Hundreds of firemen of the Paris Fire Brigade are doing everything they can to bring the terrible #NotreDame fire under control. All means are being used, except for water-bombing aircrafts which, if used, could lead to the collapse of the entire structure of the cathedral.
One of the first photos from the interior of #NotreDame from Reuters' Philippe Wojazer shows the altar's cross illuminated by spotlight, with the Coustous' PietĂ seemingly unharmed underneath.

No criminal record. He was granted parole in place after his wife died. Trump's ICE re-filed deportation and served him at the wrong address. When ICE took him into custody, his attorney filed to re-open, which triggered an automatic stay-but ICE ignored it and deported him. https://t.co/CPy07RK2eX
You came to visit the cathedral that time and the Notre Dame choir sang for you and your family during your visit. I was part of that choir and I still cherish that moment. Tonight more than ever. Thank you.
wow the most visited monument in Paris…how many human stories since the first new stones (original cathedral ordered demolished) laid in 1163; survived riots, French Revolution, so many restorations, even bullets…my heart is with the people of France and their beautiful city tonight.
TN GOP just voted to criminalize voter registration in TN. A truly criminal bill. Since this new legislature, and more importantly, this new governor, came in, they have been on a rampage.
