This whole Trump/Russia thing is unbelievable. Every time I think that interest in

[catbyte]

the story has waned, another bomb goes off. I thought that folks would be talking about how "presidential" Dolt 45* looked during that speech for at least a few days to try to prop him up, but Russia blew that away in 24 hours. Again. You've got the National Security Advisor gone, the Attorney General caught in a lie to the Senate, and just about everybody on his cabinet with some sketchy tie to Russia, or as Senator Franken said on "Morning Joe" today, "hinky." I'm wondering what crap is out there just waiting to be discovered about Ross. Have we ever had a Commerce Secretary who sat on the board of a foreign bank alongside Russian Oligarchs?

There's so much crap out there that it's just too massive to be ignored. Thank God.

2. I've seen the clip of Al Franken asking...

If he had contact with the Russians about a hundred times.

I'm thinking Franken knew the answer when he asked. They were waiting for an 'up' moment for Trump to spring this.

I wonder how many more surprises we've got for them.

4. There was a professor on MSNBC this morning who was talking about Ross

I wish I'd caught his name, but he said that people were begging Republican senators to ask Ross questions about being on the board of directors of the Bank of Cypress and not one would do it. WTF? Is the entire Republican party a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Kremlin?!?
