So trump says that the Golan Heights are now part of Israel.
Was this done to help Netanyoohoo?
was it done to help trump?
Was it done to get back at Congress woman Omar?

Note: Jews inherently have voted for the democratic candidate 80% of the time. Republicans are wanting to cut into that.

Fritz...per your post . Most of Trump’s base are English lit majors thus the low math IQ .

Probably not this. The population there is Druze and Alawites. Nonetheless, very strange. It occurs on the same day the Syrian Arab Army (SAA) finishes ISIS and is free to do something else. I don't get it. That said, overthinking something isn't what this administration does.

Meanwhile there is this. Monday, the Senate will take up a new justice for the Ninth. Guessing conservative. The (R)s have learned to operate under the cover of the smoke provided by the WH.

Whaddya know.... Trump was right all along.

NO COLLUSION!

The witch hunt is ovah. LOL

You guys have salivating over a different conclusion ever since the "Trump colluded" narrative began.

Shades of Alice's Restaurant

A typical case of American blind justice.

And let's quit pretending this wasn't a big deal.

Speaker of the House, Chairman of the Hhouse Intelligence Committee and a former CIA Director all claimed there was evidence of Trump conspiring with the Russians.

In the end, it was all a lie.

A witch hunt.

A big ol' nothingburger.




Hey Norton - The House can impeach Trump. Get your facts straight, old man.

Edit - for the old man. The House handles impeachments. They have the authority and (more than likely) the votes. The Senate is not involved in the process.

Lets see here.

6 million = 6,000,000.
60 million = 60,000,000.
600 million = 600,000,000.
60,000 million = 60,000,000,000 = 60 billion?

It's pretty telling that, though the findings of the report haven't even been released yet, Republicans are already spinning it in the way they want the message to be heard: 'Trump was right! No collusion!'

Republicans are sooooo hungry to have be able to justify their decision to put this guy into office, that they will delude themselves with any kind of spin or misinformation that comes their way.

Indeed. Should wait and see before screaming victory.
But this is telling as well. The Left is downplaying it too.

Then...

Many tweets like so

Meanwhile my states Jr senator is having a rally tomorrow not far away. I'm not a fan but it would be interesting to see who shows up. My Mayor sure looks like he is running as well. I don't think doing it in front of one of Trumps Hotels is a good idea but we shall see.

https://www.westsiderag.com/2019/03/23/senator-gillibrand-to-kick-off-presidential-campaign-on-uws-on-sunday-parking-restrictions-in-effect

Senator Kirsten Gillibrand will give a speech in front of Trump International Hotel on Sunday afternoon to kick off her campaign for president.

“Gates open” at 11 a.m., and the rally starts at noon, according to NYPD. According to C-Span, the event will be live at 12:30 p.m.

The hotel is on Central Park West between 60th and 61st Streets.

Gillibrand, a Democrat from New York, just released a video called Brave Wins explaining why she’s running.

People believe what they want to believe. Facts are not necessary...in fact, they oftentimes just get in the way of what they want to believe.

Wisdom is going all in before even seeing your hand now I guess.

I, for one, have never predicted what the investigation would find regarding "collusion".

It's now 22 hours since DT has posted a tweet. I'm not sure, but this may be the longest he has gone without a tweet since becoming 45*.

That seems a little strange, considering that he would have been exonerated, if we were to believe he was being wrongly, illegally, witch-huntedly, harassed with this whole Collusion thing.

Did anyone read the letter from Barr to Congress, confirming receipt of the report? There is a sentence, well two actually in it, that seem, to me, to be the Tell:
In addition to this notification, the Special Counsel regulations require that I provide you with “a description and explanation of instances (if any) in which the Attorney General” or acting Attorney General “concluded that a proposed action by a Special Counsel was so inappropriate or unwarranted under established Departmental practices that it should not be pursued.” 28 C.F.R. 600.9(a)(3). There were no such instances during the Special Counsel’s investigation.

Also, remember that Mueller isn't there to prosecute, just to do the investigation. Which is now concluded. And that the investigation legally covered other things discovered while investigating the Russian Interference. Since I am pretty firmly believing he has done all that and more, I say, with at least a little glee, Let the prosecutions begin.....

Wow! You must be getting senile.

On more than one occasion, you claimed a 2/3rds vote in the Senate was needed for an impeachment.

I am convinced Donald will not be running for another term as President.

If the election were held right now he would lose in a landslide to virtually any Democrat, so much under water is his polling.

And it is only going to get worse as more and more indictments, prison sentences,
and Mueller's report comes out.

Needing 67 votes in the Senate to impeach, that is not going to happen.

Just trying to help you out, sport.

Don't forget to take all of your meds.

Don't know if we'll ever see anything more than the principal conclusions.

But, what's a pretty safe bet is Mueller did not recommend any additional indictments.

yes Edward

retake your high school civics class

2/3 of both the House and Senate votes are required to impeach+ remove

and if you use the 25th then 3/4 of Donald's own handpicked Cabinet must first vote to remove him from office

but first understand that "impeach" simply means to bring charges
