      I can't even think much of this news yet, as I'm still coming to terms with the insanity of Pompeo's comments.

        This is a total shitshow, but on the plus side it has to increase the chances that Bolton quits or is fired.

          Seems the latest talking point in Trumps defence is that Mueller has not recommended any further indictments.

          Desperately ignoring the fact that - if true - he seems to be happy with the 37 he already has.

            Woah, when this is made into a movie that guy will have to be played by Jon Goodman.

                That's a huge desecration of the shirt worn by Pele. Is he mad??

                Trump gets compared to Jesus and Pele in the same week.

                    Matt Taibi:

                    It's official: Russiagate is this generation's WMD

                    The Iraq war faceplant damaged the reputation of the press. Russiagate just destroyed it

                      No Collusion!

                      Did anyone think the result was going to be otherwise?

                        I think I will become a right winger. The world seems so much easier to handle when you don't have to give a toss about anyone or anything other than you.

                          This is Whitewater for liberals, and Joe Biden will be Bob Dole. Great

                            I am certainly unsurprised that Mueller was unable to prove direct active collusion between the Trump campaign and the Russian government - which seems to be all that we've been told so far in terms of the specifics.

                            There seems to be a whole lot left unsaid at the moment, though.

                              Way too early to say that. Clinton was more popular than Trump and I think Biden is a stronger candidate than Dole on his record and as a public speaker. My worry would be Pelosi = Gingrich: POTUS gets back in by conflating his opponent with a congressional hate figure.

                              If Russiagate is dead, it removes a red herring that's been distorting Trump's real legal liabilities so that might not be a bad thing. But it also discredits in advance a lot of voices that might have been used to attack Trump in more substantive areas.

                                If russiagate is dead then Barr would have released full report.

                                  Bernie as Ross Perot?

                                      Is there much evidence he's vengeful — other than verbally?

                                        I suspect even darker times await in the USA. That stroke/heart attack can't come soon enough...

                                              So Trump has his ready-made excuse for not doing anything over the last two years.

                                                Other than Comey and Sessions and Tillerson and countless others, you mean?

                                                  Their removals were, sadly, part of the political game as it's played these days though. Played very crudely I'll grant, but otherwise not particularly out of the ordinary. Revenge, to me, suggests getting into someone's personal life. Doing stuff that affects their families, finances and reputations for example.
