I'm sure I am just dense, but what is the lie you refer to? That she filed her taxes improperly?
Marriage fraud is not a lie?!

Then you'll have no problem posting evidence of constant lying from a more reputable one.So predictable, when you don't have a defense, attack the source. As you know, many sources are also covering this.

He is right but also a total fraud who steals moneyShaun King argues in The Intercept that demonstrated racism should be considered an impeachable offense: https://theintercept.com/2019/07/19/trump-racism-impeachment-offense/
I know that King is considered a questionable figure by some, but I do appreciate his argument here, and think I agree with him.
The President of the U.S. has a sworn duty to protect and defend the rights and safety of U.S. citizens. How can he/she really do this if he/she is biased against certain groups of citizens??
Of course, though, this could be a very slippery slope, as people argue about what comments are or are not racist.
But it’s an interesting question.
The young children at the Trump rally shouting "Send Her Back!" demonstrated a very disheartening and frightening future for our country.

Looking back retrospectively, would you say that the overwhelming majority of Presidents, who either (1) owned slaves, (2) opposed abolition, (3) opposed voting rights for blacks, (3) opposed voting rights for women, (3) opposed full citizenship for Native Americans, (4) opposed immigration (and in some instances) citizenship for people from Southern and Eastern Europe, Asia, and Latin America, (5) opposed the E.R.A., and (6) oppose laws prohibiting discrimination against LGBT people, should have been impeached? Because if not, I don't see where your argument is going.I know that King is considered a questionable figure by some, but I do appreciate his argument here, and think I agree with him.

[Verse 1]
Everyone knows these times are really tough
And we need to band together and say we've had enough
All the jobless people need to learn to be content
'Cause what we need to do is protect our one percent
[Chorus]
Save the rich
Let them know you care
Don't leave to languish
In their penthouse of despair
Save the rich
Let their bonuses be swollen
And let them keep it all tax free
Even if it's stolen
Save the rich
[Verse 2]
Let's give our job creators
More than their fair share
So they can go to Asia
And create jobs over there
There's loopholes and exemptions
And children to exploit
So give them special tax breaks
Go **** yourself Detroit!
[Verse 3]
And those who don't create jobs
Really need help too
'Cause without their seventh home
How will they make it through?
It's not time for complaining
Not the time for class war
It's time to sacrifice yourself
To give them more and more and more
And more and more and more
[Chorus]
Save the rich
America's built on corporate greed
It's not Wall Street's fault
If you can't get what you need
Save the rich
Don't go crying to mommy
'Cause if you don't agree
Then you're a socialist commie
Save the rich
[Bridge]
Blame yourself for your problems
Not the bad economy
So what if those who have the most
Are the ones who put it in jeopardy?
**** your student loans
**** your kids and their healthcare
It'll only take 10,000 of your jobs
To put another private jet in the air
[Chorus]
Save the rich
It's so easy to do
Just let yourself be ignorant
To what's been done to you
Save the rich
By doing nothing at all
Deny all sense and logic
And just think really small
You should think really small
Or just don't think at all
And save the rich
As in the American subprime crisis and the implosion of the American International Group, financial derivatives played a role in the run-up of Greek debt. Instruments developed by Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan Chaseand a wide range of other banks enabled politicians to mask additional borrowing in Greece, Italy and possibly elsewhere.
In dozens of deals across the Continent, banks provided cash upfront in return for government payments in the future, with those liabilities then left off the books. Greece, for example, traded away the rights to airport fees and lottery proceeds in years to come.
Critics say that such deals, because they are not recorded as loans, mislead investors and regulators about the depth of a country’s liabilities.
I don't think Trump is the one to blame for this. All he has done is exploit a divide that has been in existence for quite some time, if not always. What may be new is the explicit willingness to go along with a President and even say that he is doing God's work, notwithstanding what he does in his personal life.Perspective about the religious divide created by Trump:
Impeachment though is not a lengthy process. It literally can be done in 3 months or less
But the good thing about that is refusal to honor subpoenas is impeachable tooNot if they have to sue to enforce subpoenas which I'm sure they'd have to do.

The White House vote-counters initially feared as many as 50 Republicans might defect to support the resolution, and Trump ordered an all-hands White House effort to keep the GOP caucus together. White House aides told allies on the Hill that it was okay to criticize Trump, as long as they didn’t vote with Democrats.
Trump was obsessed with the vote tally and received regular briefings.
So I found this Politico article yesterday quite depressing. It talks about the Democrats' current approach to force Trump into compliance with oversight. Basically it sounds like the approach is to pile up contempt citations, instances of lack of cooperation, etc., in the hopes of going to court and getting a judge or judges to rule that Trump HAS to comply. The problem is that if the court cases come up against conservative or Trump-appointed judges, the rulings could go against Congress and actually wind up reducing Congress's oversight role.
I've been patient with Pelosi, because I really do think she knows how to play this game.
My guess is that she's waiting for the Mueller testimony and its aftermath.
While he probably will not offer anything not already written in his report,
Pursuing impeachment earlier in the year would have served zero purpose. I'm expecting it to happen around September or October... once Trump's crimes have been exposed, without question. Barr, Roger Stone and others will likely be going down as well. At that point, and only at that point, will impeachment will have an impact, as we head into the election year
Ok, I’m sorry, but this just cracks me up. Twitter can be so awesome!
Ivanka buys her Daughter the Whitest Puppy Ever
I saw this yesterday and the puppy is cute and all but is there anyone in this family who isn't tone deaf and/or has at least a limited grasp of what "optics" means when you're leading a public life?
