David Corn and Daniel Isikoff was on Lawrence. One of them said something that made a light go off

[Lint Head]

in my cobwebbed brain. A small epiphany for me but something you may already know. One of them said that of course the Russians wanted to have the meetings. They wanted to do more business deals with Trump. Then it clicked. That's how the Russians do politics every day. Putin is the richest man in Russia and an oil baron who has manipulated Russian politics to line his own pockets. In Russia, if you are an oligarch it's all about getting richer. And if you want to get into politics you better be ready to pay someone to play and kiss Putin's ass.
Our politics is becoming more and more about getting richer. At least on the evangelical right wing side. Evangelicals preach Prosperity Theology. So those bigoted hypocrites are willing to ignore a prostitute peeing on and humiliating Trump because that is his fetish and , hey, even us evangelicals fuck around on our husbands or wives.

however I think that you may have a glimmer of the truth going on.

I know. I KNOW!!!! It's really hard to know what the Hell is going on amongst all the utter chaos. But I think we all know that this shit is important. Somehow. Some way.


A DURec for you, my friend.

3. I saw that tonight too and I thought to myself I bet

those two had a hell of a time writing that book. I LOVED Rachel's conversation just before she passed the reins off to Lawrence:
Rachel talking (Re: dt about to fire the National Security Advisor): "National security is a gasoline soaked tinder box on a good day and this guy (dt) has decided that he likes playing with Zippos!" Rachel Maddow – You ROCK‼‼! I love it that she called him “this guy.”

5. That was a good one Rachel got off. People in the studio were laughing out loud.

It was pretty damn funny, even while scary as hell.

4. Right, most evangelicals are worshipping Mammon not YHWH

6. Yes, we have been an oligarchy for some years, now.

It was gradual. Like a crawfish boiling in a pot of water, they don't know it's getting that hot until it's too late. Citizens United boiled the pot over.

7. WHICH HUNT !!!!

I watched it just now. I want a sign WHICH HUNT to be
understood. Trump screamed "witch hunt" two weeks ago.
He got word of Mueller's subpoena then and cried "witch
hunt". So, today to repeat "witch hunt" is ambiguous.
So, I want a slogan, WHICH HUNT to subvert the repetitions.

I want to put a sign on my porch that says WHICH HUNT to
alert passer-bys that I am a level above silliness.

We are going to impeach Trump before November!!!
