Dems take back the House.

[_priapism]

The plot thickens.

So will everything else....
In fact I'm sure it will get really "DEEP"......

You have to hand it to our president. He energized the youth to come out and vote. And vote they did.

So there will finally be ethics and other investigations of Trump and his administration.  Trump and Fox will call it partisan and fake, and all the Trumptards will believe Trump and Fox.  The spineless Republicans will bow their heads in shame, but still go along with he who now controls what used to be their political party.

If we can investigate Benghazi over and over finding nothing yet having Republicans refuse to accept the findings, we can at least see what Trump is hiding in his taxes and how he is personally and illegally profiting from being POTUS.

If we can investigate Benghazi over and over finding nothing yet having Republicans refuse to accept the findings.

Historically, Benghazi is one of the most successful extractions in the history of Embassies.  It was under constant Artillery Bombardment, for days.  They managed to evacuate hundreds of people, with 4 casualties.

4 dead.  Out of hundreds, under constant bombardment from Rockets, Howitzers, and Mortars.  It wasn't about an Investigation, or Findings.  It was about turning a relative victory (Okay, one of the dead was the Embassador) into the Political Assassination of the Secretary of State, when it wasn't her Job (That would be Secretary of Defense, and Secretary of Foreign Affairs,) and she wasn't even on the same Continent.

So basically, they blame her for one of the most impressive security actions in US history, because she didn't strap on a cape, and fly over there to beat the attackers to death with their own howitzers, swinging one by the barrel.  

It's Spin, or in modern PC terms "Politically Correct" to completely misrepresent what actually happened, because the American people are too stupid, and don't watch the BBC.  In other words:  Fake News.  It always was.

Yes, which means... nothing much. The democrats had the senate, blocked republican agendas. They have the house, it'll be status quo.

So... yay for them?

I’d say ‘Let the accountability begin.’  Because there sure as shit hasn’t been any the last two years.

If you want to know about civility joan, ask CNN’s Jim Acosta about the ‘civility’ he receives while covering Trump rallies.

[psiberzerker]

All right, then you did just predict that:

They have the house, it'll be status quo.

You realize that this is a Change in the Status Quo, right?  A contradiction in terms, politically the Status Quo resists changes, that's why there's no Term Limits in Congress, and it took 200 years for the 27th Amendment to go from Ratification to Adoption.

The progressives are AGAINST the Status Quo, that's why they're called the progressives, and not the Conservative Grand Old Party.  Remember that, the next time your impossible attempts to predict political events never come true.

Everyone you spar with doesn’t need to be called a racist.  I may have missed it, but I don’t recall joan posting anything overtly racist.  The posts just parrot whatever ideological rightwing nonsense and falsehoods she hears from Fox and Trump.

[psiberzerker]

Some of which are indirectly Racially Insensitive, but I agree.  Joan hasn't said anything I'd call explicitly Racist.  Just enjoys the White Supremacy without openly admitting it.

And yeah, calling people racists lets them play the victim, especially when they're "I don't want to sound racist, but;" racists.  Which makes Pathos the Boy who cried Racist.  I can think about 5 other people that only get more stubborn when you flat out call them that, and Joan isn't one of them.

Learn when things are counterproductinve, and is it too late to ask you Think about your post before lashing out in rebellious anger?

The fallout is here.  AG Sessions just resigned.

[joan1984]

Jim Acosta earns the reaction he receives, in his day to day attempts to take over the White House Press Briefings. Needs to be taken down a few pegs, and he controls his own destiny, with his behavior, bias, and attitude.

Leader Pelosi is who speaks of civility and the need for it in our discourse.(as well, the previous leading Democrat who cannot be named, as no one wishes to be associated with her now, at least here.)

Jim Acosta asks the hard questions that a good journalist and member of a free press in a democracy is supposed to ask of our elected officials.  Just because Trump doesn’t like the questions asked confirms Acosta is doing his job.

About the toughest question Trump wants is the ones he gets from Fox like ‘How come you’re so wonderful President Trump?’
