Sounds like someone is really getting desperate. 


Former President Donald Trump filed a sprawling federal lawsuit on Thursday against Hillary Clinton and people allegedly involved with opposition research in 2016, accusing them of conspiring to vilify the then-Republican presidential candidate and cripple his campaign.

And this- looks like both Meadows and his wife commited voter fraud.

I feel like this probably will have statute of limitations issues.

I don’t know, I have a feeling that many generations to come will talk about the terrible Hillary Clinton. They will not let go until her name is lost to the sands of time.

How can her husband be impartial?? Can someone be kicked out of the court? Recalled, impeached or something??

Spoiler alert, he's definitely not impartial and is probably a conspiracy nut like his wife. Also, so many Gmail addresses used. Weird how that doesn't bother the right.

Am I remembering correctly that it was discovered when he was arrested that he had like 3 passports?

It's crazy that he was already on the plane. He must have been thinking that he got away with it.

I have no idea how I remembered that but somehow can't even remember what day of the week it is.

They can be impeached and subsequently removed. However, I don't think it's ever been done. I give 0% chance to it being done to Thomas.

This Ginni Thomas info is absolutely bonkers and completely believable at the same time.

These fucking people.

Also, is Thomas being sick and in the hospital real or a cover because he knew it was coming?

White House records turned over to House show 7-hour gap in Trump phone log on Jan. 6

Internal White House records from the day of the attack on the U.S. Capitol that were turned over to the House select committee show a gap in President Donald Trump's phone logs of seven hours and 37 minutes, including the period when the building was being violently assaulted, according to documents obtained by CBS News' chief election & campaign correspondent Robert Costa and The Washington Post's associate editor Bob Woodward.

Donald Trump famously called on Russia to find Hillary Clinton’s emails ahead of the 2016 election. He’s now calling on Vladimir Putin to dig up dirt on President Biden’s family.

The ask came during an interview with Just the News on Real America’s Voice, with the former president citing a Senate report that found a Russian oligarch once gave $3.5 million to a company he claims was founded by Biden’s son, Hunter. “Why did the mayor of Moscow’s wife give the Bidens, both of them, $3.5 million? That’s a lot of money,” Trump said. “She gave him $3.5 million so I would think Putin would know the answer to that,” Trump said. “I think he should release it. I think we should know that answer.”

A talking-to? House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy is planning to sit down with Rep. Madison Cawthorn and talk to the North Carolina Republican about his latest incendiary public comment — suggesting that some of his colleagues invited him to orgies as well as used cocaine in front of him.

NYT Daily podcast had some optimistic news that the congressional districts are pretty evenly split & Dems are in a much better spot than people thought they would be after re-districting.
Basically- they went all GOP and did very heavy gerrymandering to pick up as many seats as possible, GOP is playing defense in plces where maps may shift to purple/blue over the next 10 years.

Maryland tried their best to gerrymander it up to turn our only red district into a tossup and got smacked down. So we end up keeping our 7-1.  local GOP is still bent out of shape, but frankly the new map is 1000000000000000000000x simpler and more logical than our old one, which had some truly ridiculous districts.

House debate on legislation to legalize marijuana on the federal level. TL:DW(atch) if pot is legalized the world will end and drug cartels will take over Oregon. THINK OF THE CHILDREN.

I think Dems will pass it but I doubt it'll get through the Senate unfortunately.

You’d think they’d notice that hasn’t been happening, but they failed to notice that our major city did not actually burn down in riots, so.
