Judge says Stone’s release under current conditions would pose a risk to the public. Looks like it will be full gag or jail ? (I would argue that putting him in jail would fix his supposed rent issues and putting food on his table ! If he was single. :-D) edit : gag it is | ||

Basically all they did was fucked with the forms (seriously, it’s a mess, I could go on at length), rolled exemptions into a bigger deduction, and cut rates on the rich. It’s not the sweeping reform advertised, just a gift to the rich by driving up the deficit. Might as well promise a flat 2% tax rate next election. well the question is, are we talking about actual success, or perceived success? Because if Trump fails all his goals but convinces the voters he succeeded, then he's still going to enjoy massive support. It seems to me he's running a perfect con, in that no matter how great his failures they get brushed under the carpet, but no matter how minor his successes they get amplified. The big test to me seems to be this state of emergency for the wall money thing. Given it's the one thing people have fixated on, can Trump weather it (probably) failing? | ||

Also, does anyone know if the Republicans are allowed to run a new candidate in place of the current one? He intends to run. Mark Harris cited health problems he has had since January with interfering with his ability to recall certain details, and he apologized to the state board for his misstatements. Robert Pittenger should be the Republican candidate on the ballot in my opinion. Harris likely cheated to win the primary as well and he shouldn't be on the ticket period. | ||

I'm 99% sure it won't happen unless some seriously damning evidence comes out, but you never know. I also highly doubt the general public will ever see an unredacted version Why do you think there wouldn't be a release of an unredacted version or that the dems in the house won't do anything once the report is released? | ||
