Mooch should be shot. He buried 3 huge stories favorable to DjT...in those 2-3 days alone.
Mooch is recused.
Why hasn’t the GOP been screaming bloody murder over this whole Awan steaming pile?
This has been known since February, and I haven’t heard squat from the Republicans. Did I miss something?
I’m listening with these concerns about Scaramucci.
Let us remember, President Trump appointed the man.
He must see something we don’t.
I see that he’s very handsome but that is it.
McCain will be ‘recalled’ from this earth far faster than any recall effort put forth by voters ... which, it appears from the Church/Menendez recall efforts, will get tied up in the courts, etc.
Then there’s the ‘sympathy’ factor which the Dems will drum up on their buddy’s behalf .... poor war hero, afflicted with brain cancer & you want to try & recall him here at the end of his life of service to the country? Cruel, heartless people!
Frankly, if McCain were the ‘man’ he purports to be, he would do the right thing and resign, spend what time he has with his family; however, he wants to be a Maverick to the end and poking Trump in the eye as often as he can might be enough motivation/reason to live to keep him alive a couple extra weeks. Until he’s gone, we need to keep a watchful eye - he’s talking “immigration reform” and he’ll ride the “dying war hero” horse into the ground trying to use that poor nag to get some laws, that stink for the country as most of his efforts do, passed before he passes. BUT, when he’s ‘gone’ this time, he’ll well and truly be gone .... and I won’t be grabbing for the Kleenex on his behalf.
Looks like Mr. Mikeee Wallace scored one on Ms Nasty Pelosi of the Italian body language. Calling Ms Nasty an Old Hag on nation TV will have some repercussions

Seth Rich reportedly attended a party with Washington DC IT workers the night of his death.
World Net Daily reported:
During the course of his investigation of Rich’s mysterious murder, Wheeler claims, he learned something peculiar that he hadn’t heard before:
Rich attended a party with numerous IT workers the night he was killed. After the party, Rich went to Lou’s City Bar, the last known location where he was seen before his murder.
Wheeler said he was determined to learn more about the IT party and who was in attendance, but all his questions have gone unanswered.
“Seth attended that party, and I wanted to know who else was at that party. But I could never find out,” Wheeler said. “When I went back to ask other people who should have known who was at that party – these were people who were close to Seth – they told me, ‘You don’t need to know who was at that party because it had nothing to do with his death.’”
Uncovering more details about the attendees of the party is essential in the Rich homicide investigation, Wheeler contends.
“He was at the party before he went to the bar. What you do in a murder investigation is you work backward. You want to trace the victim’s steps as far back as you can – who was that person around the day before? – as far back as you can,” he said. “What was interesting is when I am told as an investigator that I don’t need to talk to people who were at the party. It makes you wonder why.”
Now there’s a photo of Seth Rich at a bar with friends.

Actually, the bigger question is where was Rich during the missing three hours from 1:45 til 4:45 am. Rumors are wild about where he was but he had to be somewhere since it didn't take three hours to get to the place where he was shot.
There was a picture of the IT guys celebrating with Seth Rich the night he was murdered and an Anwan brother was with them. Could he be the killer and DWS is involved?
I’m beginning to think that Scaramucci is about as teflon as our President and it’s a good thing.
Except for Kellyanne Conway and Corey Lewandowski, looks to be an all-out anti-Trump Sunday!
So you are saying this Sunday is no different than any other?
ConservaTeen could do a better job on FNS...of course, he’d insist that Nancy would have to have a bag over over head, so people won’t get sick looking at her..and he would tell John Kasich that he is a RINO...
The look on Washerwoman’s face when they took her computer made you think it may have evidence in a murder investigation. She looked pretty scared.
Rumor is that picture was photo-shopped.
Schwartz causing quite a stir this morning. Talking about leaks..cnn..emails. one tweet oddly worded. Not sure if he meant RP leaking to CNN..says you as in tapper was leaking to Cnn..not quit sure what he is getting at but threatening to post emails
DjT does have a plan....he knows he’s fighting a silent coup, so fighters are needed. Gentlemen like Priebus, Sessions who would work well in normal times, won’t cut it now. Thus, Kelly, Scaramucci, and new AG who won’t take an ounce of flak and won’t recuse.

from the link.
Under the United States Constitution and congressional practice, Members of Congress may have their services ended prior to the normal expiration of their constitutionally established terms of office by their resignation or death, or by action of the house of Congress in which they are a Member by way of an “expulsion,” or by a finding that in accepting a subsequent “incompatible” public office, the Member would be deemed to have vacated his congressional seat.
Under Article I, Section 5, clause 2, of the Constitution, a Member of Congress may be removed from office before the normal expiration of his or her constitutional term by an “expulsion” from the Senate (if a Senator) or from the House of Representatives (if a Representative) upon a formal vote on a resolution agreed to by two-thirds of the Members of that body present and voting.
While there are no specific grounds for an expulsion expressed in the Constitution, expulsion actions in both the House and the Senate have generally concerned cases of perceived disloyalty to the United States, or the conviction of a criminal statutory offense which involved abuse of one’s official position. Each house has broad authority as to the grounds, nature, timing, and procedure for an expulsion of a Member. However, policy considerations, as opposed to questions of authority, have appeared to restrain the Senate and House in the exercise of expulsion when it might be considered as infringing on the electoral process, such as when the electorate knew of the past misconduct under consideration and still elected or reelected the Member. ....................
I got the impression none of this has ever been tested in the Supreme Court although I wouldn't hold much hope there either.
Murder or treason is my bet.
Closest SCOTUS test is the “Term Limits” case. It’s mentioned in that reference.
Here are what some of the enemies of Jeff Sessions are saying (go to the articles for the specific accomplishments):
Jeff Sessions has done more damage in his first 100 days than his boss
US attorney general Jeff Sessions may not be part of the biggest investigation in the Department of Justice, but as he reaches 100 days in office, there’s little doubt that he’s had an important impact on the American criminal-justice system—potentially for years to come.
Despite the political turmoil of the Trump administration, Sessions has moved to reverse a tide of progressive reform and to fulfill his boss’s law-and-order agenda, a collection of concepts loosely articulated during the 2016 presidential campaign. Sessions’ biggest actions, from undermining federal oversight of police departments to cracking down on undocumented immigrants, have worried a wide array of lawmakers, law-enforcement leaders, advocates and scientists.
“Of all the cabinet members, maybe even the president, he has to this point had the most significant impact as to policy changes,” said Jesselyn McCurdy, the deputy director at the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) Washington Legislative Office told Quartz.
Unlike his boss, Sessions is delivering on what he has promised—sometimes on causes he has championed for decades.
“There’s been a great bipartisan movement by organizations on the ground and members of Congress to reform the federal criminal-justice system, based on successes that have happened in the states, but the leader of opposition to that reform was Jeff Sessions, as a senator from Alabama,” McCurdy said. “These are all things that [Sessions], as a criminal justice reform opponent, had on his radar already.
McCurdy said Sessions was “definitely” living up to the ACLU’s concerns, and in some areas, fulfilling the worst-case scenarios.
Jeff Sessions ushers in 'Trump era' at the Justice Department
In just over two months, Sessions has proved to be a central figure in effectuating Trump's vision for America in tangible ways on immigration, crime, police reform and civil rights.
And while the White House searches for new messaging to frame what Trump has accomplished in the first 100 days in office, Sessions has single-handedly managed to make several significant domestic policy changes -- from pressing pause on implementing police reforms to withdrawing Obama-era protections for transgender students in public schools.
His radical transformation of the Justice Department's role is no accident.
Many of the changes Sessions has made thus far track a familiar principle of federalism: the notion that the federal government's powers are limited and it can't coerce states into action. In other words, the federal government should get out of the states' way.
Sessions' critics worry that he is well on his way to undoing many of the major progressive achievements of his predecessors, often by withdrawing from court cases or previous directives that fail to align with his views. Yet Trump supporters cheered Sessions on during the presidential campaign when he said, "the American people are not happy with their government."
Now that Sessions is the nation's top law enforcement officer, his defenders and critics universally agree: he's been busy fulfilling the President's campaign promises and he's just getting started.
