President Trump has decided to retain controversial FBI Director James Comey,

It makes sense its fast, simple and he can always be replaced as well as it keeps the FBI running and may ease tensions between them and the white house if reports are to be believed (they probably are not).

All you need to really know on this is that Soros has his hands in Norwegian.

As someone who also works in the transportation industry (as well as someone who also flies often) I'll also be watching this closely. I sure hope Trump strikes this down.

I definitely saw it as a possibility, but was at the most hopeful it would happen. There is more upside than downside I believe.

On the downside it does give Dims the opportunity to incorrectly say he is being kept as reward for 'sabotaging' the election.

If you give Democrats enough time, they will eat their own.

And when finished, indulge in self-cannibalism.

Just give it some time.

The DEMs will try to fanatically obstruct Trump at every turn. They know that Trump's policies may rapidly show significant benefits to large portions of the U.S. population.

Groups that have been long time traditional DEM voters may find that Trump will give them opportunities and a better life than anything they ever saw under the DEMs.

It is amazing that the party that claims to champion diversity and inclusiveness, has actually dangerously divided our country and based their platform on gross distortions & lies.

Candidates for chair of Democratic National Committee met Monday night to discuss what went wrong in 2016 and how to get the party back on track.

Democrats must provide “training” that focuses in part on teaching Americans “how to be sensitive and how to shut their mouths if they are white,” urged the executive director of Idaho’s Democratic Party, Sally Boynton Brown, who is white.

The event’s moderator, MSNBC’s Joy Ann Reid, asked the candidates how the party should handle the Black Lives Now movement.

The candidates uniformly emphasized that the party must embrace the activists unreservedly.
“It makes me sad that we’re even having that conversation and that tells me that white leaders in our party have failed,” Brown said.

“I’m a white woman, I don’t get it. … My job is to listen and be a voice and shut other white people down when they want to interrupt.”
“This is life and death” she emphasized. “I am a human being trying to do good work and I can’t do it without y’all. So please, please, please, get ahold of me. Sally at we-the-dnc.org. I need schooling so I can go school the other white people.”

Another candidate said black Americans are now living with “justified fear” of being killed after Donald Trump was elected president.

Asked whether they would agree to work with President Trump, the candidates agreed they would never do so, which drew some applause from the otherwise quiet crowd at George Washington University.

I actually think that the dems will pick a further left dnc chair, which is demonstrated by their lack of coherence and/or self awareness; rather than figure out what went wrong, they're trying to amplify their bs - the obama way = "it's not the policies, it's the delivery"

I hope they keep rolling toward that cliff...the crash can't come any sooner!

Bernie has his own reasons for not liking TPP, I don't know what they are and they may or may not be logical or reasonable.

Even a broke clock is right twice a day.

Or as my grand-father used to say, "Even a blind squirrel finds a nut now and then."

I am loving this, reading about Trump's good work and (D) heads exploding.

Dinner is served.

No, the Dems are on the right track. No, really:

"I'm White so very White and I am sorry for my Whitness."

The stupid never stops with the Dems.

I'm rooting for Boynton Brown to be DNC chair.

Have her campaign and spread her message everywhere across the country.

REPs would probably fund her travel.

They are playing Russian roulette with a semi auto. What happens when a person of color determines that she's not even allowed to hold other whites down due to her privilege.

I missed this earlier.

At the "Deploraball" as part of the inauguration, Sheriff David Clarke said:

'When I hear people say we need to reach across the aisle and work with the Democrats, you know what I say? The only reason I'll be reaching across the aisle is to grab one of them by the throat.'

Here he is on video that night: (video at linked article)

I got an email that there is an effort to see if Sheriff Clarke will run for WI senator to unseat Tammy Baldwin (D) in 2018.

A Sheriff Clarke campaign could cost me some money.

Makes perfect sense. She's using her white privilege to shut down white people as a way to make up for her whiteness. Word yo.

Can life even get any better??

I'm sorry....you'll have to speak up.

I can't hear you over the sound of the swamp draining.
