I went looking for a link to a news article just now but couldn't find one. On my errands this morning, NPR was reporting that a lawsuit is being brought before the 9th circuit by either 21 students or some number of 21 year old students, I wasn't quite sure which. They're suing Trump over climate change, because he's going to make the climate inhabitable in their lifetimes by not going with the Paris Accords, and because he's not Obama. More or less.

It's hard to notice what is going on in the world when your collective head is shoved so far up your own ass. CNN is a perfect example.

Did any of y’all catch that press conference earlier today. That is the most adversarial I’ve seen the lamestream media act in a long time. Sarah handled it damn well! It was a good move to put her in that position.

Trump accusers band together, seek congressional probe of 'sexual misconduct'
Brooke Singman By Brooke Singman | Fox News

Three women, who previously have accused President Trump of sexual misconduct, banded together Monday to call for a congressional investigation into the president – in what could be an opening effort to shift the sexual harassment spotlight from Congress to the White House.

The women revived their allegations during a press conference and television interview in New York City.

Trump has long rejected the accusations from over a dozen women who have made such claims against him, and the White House called the revived accusations "false." The three accusers spoke out Monday following high-profile resignations last week on Capitol Hill over misconduct claims.

“I ask Congress to put aside their party affiliations and ask that they investigate Trump’s history of sexual misconduct,” Rachel Crooks said during a press conference in New York City Monday. "If they were willing to investigate Senator Franken, I think it's only fair that they do the same for Trump."

Sen. Al Franken, D-Minn., announced his resignation last week, as did Reps. John Conyers, D-Mich., and Trent Franks, R-Ariz.

Trump's accusers on Monday also sought the president's resignation, but acknowledged that's unlikely.

“In terms of resigning, it’s probably the right thing to do. But I can’t imagine he will. I think the congressional investigation is the only thing we can ask for," Crooks said.

Crooks gave a detailed account of her story, accusing Trump of kissing her on the lips when she was a receptionist at a company in Trump Tower when she was 22 years old.

“I was shocked. Devastated. It happened so fast,” Crooks said earlier Monday on NBC’s “Megyn Kelly Today.” “I wish I would have been courageous enough to be like ‘what’s going on,’ and ‘you need to stop.’…I felt horrible.”

Two other women shared their stories during the press conference and on the same program.

Jessica Leeds, who first told her story during the presidential campaign, detailed her experience on an airplane in the 1970s. Leeds said she was on a flight, and was moved to first class—a seat next to Trump.

She claimed Trump started "kissing and groping" her, and that she eventually moved to the back of the plane.

"Mr. Trump, he was bored and wanted some entertainment," she said at the press conference. Leeds said that years later, she ran into Trump in New York City, where she claimed he remembered her and called her a derogatory name.

Samantha Holvey, a former Miss USA pageant contestant, alleged that during one pageant, Trump came backstage to where the contestants were in hair and make-up in bathrobes.

“He lined us up, and I thought this was going to be like a meet and greet, like ‘hi, how are ya, nice to meet you,’ it was not,” Holvey said on NBC. “He was just looking me over like I was a piece of meat, I was not a human being, I didn’t have a brain, I didn’t have a personality. I was just simply there for his pleasure. It left me feeling very gross, very dirty. This is not what I signed up for.”

Later, at the press conference, Holvey said it was her “dream” as a young girl to compete in a pageant.

“But I have a new dream now. That this man will be held accountable for his actions,” Holvey said.

Allegations of misconduct by Trump surfaced during the 2016 presidential campaign. They took center stage in the final weeks after a decade-old “Access Hollywood” tape revealed Trump making lewd comments about women. The Trump campaign discounted the tape, at the time, as “locker room talk.”

The White House released a fresh statement early Monday decrying the "false" claims of the women at the press conference.

“These false claims, totally disputed in most cases by eyewitness accounts, were addressed at length during last year’s campaign, and the American people voiced their judgment by delivering a decisive victory,” a White House spokesperson said in a statement. “The timing and absurdity of these false claims speaks volumes and the publicity tour that has begun only further confirms the political motives behind them.”

But Crooks said the White House’s response was “laughable.”

"A person with this record would have entered the graveyard of political aspirations never to return, but yet, he is president of the United States," she said.

Holvey, Leeds and Crooks are just three of 16 women who participated in a video titled “16 Women and Donald Trump,” which details the allegations against the president.

Wow. That was a surpringly fair and well written article from Piers. For someone who gets the second amendment horrifically wrong he has managed to analyze the Trump presidency pretty well.

It's not that surprising at all actually. Piers has always been fair in regards to Trump. He has probably dozens of articles about President Trump that most here would celebrate.

It was only a matter of time. Of course it was revealed on NBC news that all three accusers are Democrats.

This is nothing short of a mess. It is hard to wonder if the revelations of all of these women recently, and the forced resignation of all of these men, was an elaborate set up to pave the way for yet another attempt to force Trump out of office.

I don't know if it was actually set up and orchestrated that way at the beginning, but it certainly morphed into that. The attacks on BJ Clinton, the adamant condemnation of all these leftist fools in Hollywood, and in particular the "sacrifice" of that slime Franken were all preemptive of this eventual resurgence of attacks against President Trump.

As I said above, Democrats are nothing if not obvious and predictable.

Now they are going after him for his diet. He evidently drinks a lot of diet Coke and that clearly is an issue if he is not eating right. Roll Eyes

Not a peep out of them regarding Hadji's smoking, mind you.

Jesus, I'm about ready to completely divorce myself from any and all "news".

One sunny day in late January of 2017, an old man approached the White House from across Pennsylvania Avenue, where he'd been sitting on a park bench.

He spoke to the young marine who was standing guard. "I would like to go in and meet with President Hillary Clinton," he said.

"Sir, Mrs. Clinton is not President and doesn't reside here," responded the marine. The old man sighed and walked away.



The following day, the same man approached the White House and said to the same marine, "I would like to go in and meet with President Hillary Clinton."

The marine responded "Sir, as I told you yesterday, Mrs. Clinton is not President and doesn't reside here." The old man thanked him and again walked away.



The third day, the same man approached the White House and spoke to the very same marine. "I would like to go in and meet with President Hillary Clinton."

The marine, understandably agitated at this point, looked at the old man. "Sir, this is the third day in a row that you have been here asking to speak to Mrs. Clinton. I've told you already several times that Mrs. Clinton is not the President and doesn't reside here. Don't you understand?"

"Oh, I understand you fine," responded the old man. "I just love hearing your answer!"

Whereupon the Marine smiled, snapped to attention, and saluted as he responded with "Sir, see you tomorrow!"


Thanks,

Sap

So one of Trump's accusers feels bad because of the way he looked at her?! Not that he actually DID anything? Seriously, she should keep talking: how must this make women who have been truly harassed or assaulted feel? Good Lord.

They ridiculed Bush41 because he wouldn’t eat broccoli, Reagan for keeping jelly beans on his desk. It’s always something.




Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me.

When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way. This lesson in political reality from Lyndon B. Johnson

"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." - Justice Janice Rogers Brown
