Special Counsel Issues 1st Indictments

A bunch of us should form a corporation so we could take advantage of every tax loophole for corporations. We could have millions of people in the corporation.

I’m in!

Michael Flynn, "lock her up"...

Lock who up? Can't believe we are here today.

After all the protests. After all the fake news. After all the lies...

 

[Tripod]

While busily ramming through their despicable "tax reform" scheme which will have a devastating economic impact for decades to come per economists. I guess it's his big gift and payback to all of his 1% supporters before he goes. Everybody else gets f***** for not being the beneficiaries of ill gotten gains and filthy lucre.

If you truly believe that, you need to perhaps start reading a little more about what's really in the tax bills being debated. Do you know that the top income earners get either NO reduction in tax rates, or just a measly one percent reduction in top tax rates? I forget which one is in which bill, House or Senate. As Orrin Hatch has been saying, the "benefit the rich" meme is the only false playbook the Democrats have used for years and years. Finally, we will get a bill that actually benefits the middle class, which no Democrat Congress has given us in ages, and which is sorely needed. My main complaint is neither bill goes far enough in reducing all taxes. Then, what the country desperately needs is for Congress to actually cut spending, and not simply cut the GROWTH of spending. Really try to wrap your mind around what the Fed. govt. actually spends, and what it is spent on. It's the spending that has broken us, and will destroy us. Especially when something like 40% of all citizens pay no income taxes at all, and many actually receive some type of govt. benefit while having no skin in the game. This isn't what the founders ever intended.

I know! I can hardly wait to get my private plane so I can be in that benefit group. And it is so great that small business people no longer get all of those deductions, It is much better that the corporations get all of those breaks!

I love off shore accounts! I am going to get several with my tax savings!

Gotta go read that bill. I bet there are more treats in there for me!

I agree. There is plenty of poverty. There is plenty of sufferIng.

Health care is in a precarious balance here. If you have HC, it could be lousy to great.

If we don't get basic health care across the board in this country, I don't believe we will grow as a country. Can't compete. Sooner or later we will find out the hard way.

If every other advanced society in the world has it. what is wrong with Americans? And we do not have 'basic' health care, we have full health care.

The tip of a prosecutorial iceberg,” Napolitano told @FoxNews “It’s a nightmare for Donald Trump, because General Flynn was his constant companion on foreign policy & national security matters from 6/2015 to the time" Trump fired him in Feb 2017

Mueller’s team says Flynn spoke w/an official on Trump's transition team who was at Mar-a-Lago on 12/29/16 to discuss what to say to Russian ambassador. This tweet the next day from POTUS looks bad for...POTUS.

In Flynn, Mueller unearths more lies _ and a key witness

WASHINGTON (AP) — More smoke but no smoking gun.

Michael Flynn's guilty plea Friday revealed a new layer of lies unearthed by the far-reaching investigation into ties between President Donald Trump and Russia, and put heightened scrutiny on the president's son-in-law, Jared Kushner. But Flynn's admission, and all of the criminal cases thus far, have not resolved the fundamental question special counsel Robert Mueller is seeking to answer: Did Trump's campaign collude with Russia to win the election?

Trump himself was eager to settle that question as he offered his first public response to Flynn's plea, saying Saturday: "What has been shown is no collusion, no collusion. There's been absolutely no collusion." ...

[TMAN2014]

Still nothing on Trump. Of course, Flynn contacted various foreign nations, AFTER the election. That was his job. Too bad, he lied to the FBI, which is the only crime here, a crime of process. As for Trump, GDP UP 3.3% (Obama never did that), STOCK MARKET SOARING!!!

Strike 3, Mueller, you're out!

At last count I believe 42 out of 43 economists interviewed directly dispute everything you are claiming here. The middle class on down is specifically burdened as a result of this tax scam. It's only benefactors are corporations and the 1%. Those are facts. It's not even a debate. And as for the other part of your claim, the amount the Fed spends on social programs in this country in the grand scheme of things is a laughable pittance, and yet you insist on propagating the trope that the recipients of these programs are having any deleterious impact on the national budget or deficit. It's a ridiculous and demonstrably false claim.

The GOP has essentially stood around and thought, "What are the things we can do to most guarantee that there is an almost insurmountable financial burden further placed on those who are already not the top wealth holders in this country---let's do those!!!", and then they did it. Last night.

And don't forget all of those GOP Congress members admitting that this is all about paying back their donors anyway. They don't give a rip about anybody but those who continue to fund their war on the middle class and most vulnerable in our nation.

What! They are always praying! I guess they are only at the praying part and have not read what it is that they should be praying for. And I don’t think it is for their football team to win

Donnie's babysitters ought not to have given him back his phone today:

“Oh my god, he just admitted to obstruction of justice,” former Justice Department spokesman Matthew Miller tweeted. “If Trump knew Flynn lied to the FBI when he asked Comey to let it go, then there is your case.”

"

A former Obama administration Justice Department official said Saturday that President Trump “admitted to obstruction of justice” in a tweet.

"Miller was responding to a tweet Trump posted Saturday, in which he said he fired former national security adviser Michael Flynn in February because Flynn "lied to the Vice President and the FBI.”

--Get rich now while it lasts. But look out for the foreseeable future.

Mr Trump's friend Mr. Flynn, Mr lock 'er up? has been an insider, privy to national security info for quite some time, like since Sept 2016, and it is no secret who he will be flipping next, and next, and next, to save his sorry bacon for ever hooking up with trump.

Bases are loaded...
