Nothingburgers all round?

With TrumpWill Fries.

and heaps of Mueller Mustard, the hottest kind

A cup of Impeach Mint Tea?
AdLib an hour ago
I wonder if Ryan and McConnell have ordered their size pampers yet?
pinkpantheroz
an hour ago
Good one!!! 
pinkpantheroz
an hour ago
I kind of think that McConnell , Ryan, Trump, Nunes, etc. are hoping that something just stops Mueller. They don’t seem to think the hammer will definitely come down.
AdLib an hour ago
You now have a thoroughly pissed-off FBI, who, unlike the GOP have enough professionalism to stay focussed on thie jobs. There will be many nervous people onCapital hill just now.
pinkpantheroz
an hour ago
I sure hope Repubs are scared now. As for Trump, I think part of this meo thing was to stall his interview with Mueller. Now his lawyers are claiming Mueller has no right to interview him. Mueller should just subpoena Trump and watch the freak out and immediate agreement to an interview.
AdLib an hour ago
memo, not meo
AdLib an hour ago
gottut, Ad. Yes, the time for respectful politeness is now long gone. Issue the subpoena and watch the fish wriggle
pinkpantheroz
an hour ago
And watch for the leaks to come out to damage Nunes and Trump.
AdLib an hour ago
Colander comes to mind!

Heh!

Twitter is going bananas about the non-event. V Funnt

Mueller has a bunch of sealed indictments with the Grand Jury. He can drop a hammer any time he wants if Trump tries to fire Rosenstein.
AdLib an hour ago
Hey glenn!
AdLib an hour ago
hiya glenn, how are you?
pinkpantheroz
an hour ago
Good evening, gents. I’m trying to warm up from my granddaughter’s first varsity soccer game. My daughter and I were sitting on the aluminum benches at the athletic field in 32 degree weather. Hoping my fury at the Nunes memo will help to warm me up. Either that or my furious typing at the moment. How are you two doing?
glenn
an hour ago
Ad, question. If Mueller gets the chop, won’t the investigation continue anyway? What ‘good’ would it do?
pinkpantheroz
an hour ago
So, who else is going to be indicted now for obstructing justice? Nunes? Ryan? Tea Party Repubs?
AdLib an hour ago
Glenn, Order one of those Musk Flame Throwers! Only $500!
pinkpantheroz
an hour ago
Doing well, glenn! How did she do? She’s a serious player!
AdLib an hour ago
Doing OK, glenn. Pleasant weekend here at last!
pinkpantheroz
an hour ago
PPO – Theoretically, if Rosenstein is gone, his replacement could slash funding for Mueller and limit the scope of his investigation, even end it.
AdLib an hour ago
Oh, that’s not good. So the sooner Big M issues indictments, the better, I suppose
pinkpantheroz
an hour ago
PPO–Even if the investigation continues, this cowardly, treasonous congress won’t do anything. I know Ad has more faith in our institutions than I do; but I just don’t see them impeaching trump. For the life of me, I cannot see why they are so determined to tear down our
glenn

If Mueller is removed, a new counsel would have to be appointed by The Senate by just a majority but if a Trump mole was chosen, Repubs will have that hung around their neck and lose in Nov. then when Dems win one or both houses, they can start right back up and bring Mueller back in.
AdLib an hour ago
….tear down our government.
glenn
an hour ago
now I’m confused!
pinkpantheroz
an hour ago
Ad–I understand what you’re saying, but how much damage will be done by then?
glenn
an hour ago
Hopefully things will smooth out. It is Superbowl Weekend, after all! Nice distraction I suppose
pinkpantheroz
an hour ago
glenn – I don’t believe a Repub House will impeach Trump but if Dems win The House back, they will. And they will investigate all the corruption surrounding Trump.
AdLib an hour ago
PPO–ha! Perhaps that’s just what I need!
glenn
an hour ago
I’ve my .0000023 Bitcoin on New England, because my cousin lives in Boston
pinkpantheroz
an hour ago
Ad–she’s only a freshman on the varsity, so she only got a little bit of playing time, but she did hold her own. Plus, her team won 3-1!
glenn
an hour ago
Congrats to her, glenn. Onward next year
pinkpantheroz
an hour ago
glenn – The election is only 9 months away and much of that time will be focused on campaigns. Trump can keep obstructing justice but word is that Mueller will bring new charges no later than Summer. Only 5 months away.
AdLib an hour ago
Ad–just as this year is the first year that you didn’t do a live blog of the SOTU, this is the first year I refuse to watch the Super Bowl. And…I love football. But I just cannot stand to see brady again!
glenn
44 minutes ago
PPO, that’s one confident bet!
AdLib 44 minutes ago
Dunno, Ad. Upsets happen, as if we didn’t know!
pinkpantheroz
43 minutes ago
Very cool! Being a Freshman on Varsity! Does she want to play in college?
AdLib 43 minutes ago
Ad–I know you’re correct, but 5 months seems like such a long time away. Such a long time to have to listen to trump lie, much less see him in the WH.
glenn
42 minutes ago
glenn – I’m with you about Brady and the Patriots and if they get far ahead, I’m done. But nothing would be sweeter than seeing Brady and the Pats lose!
AdLib 41 minutes ago
Ad–not sure if she wants to play in college. She wants to become either a vet or a pediatric physician, so not sure how much time she’ll have in college to play sports. But she loves playing right now.
glenn
40 minutes ago
PPO – I’m rooting for an upset, all due respect though for your fractional Bitcoin.
AdLib 39 minutes ago
Ad–I’ll keep track of the game online, and if the Eagles take a lead late in the game, perhaps I’ll watch then. B
glenn
39 minutes ago
actually, I hope the Eagles cause the upset, just to see the faces of the Pat’s fans. I’m a Skins fan myself.
pinkpantheroz
38 minutes ago
But the Falcons had a nice lead at halftime, and look at what happened last year.
glenn
38 minutes ago
glenn, the Eagles will have studied that to death, so it doesn’t happen to them (hopefully)!
pinkpantheroz
37 minutes ago
PPO–I’m with you…would love to see the Pats’ fans faces if they lose.
glenn
37 minutes ago
glenn- Actually, while the last year was unbearable, look how fast time is going by. It’s already Feb! Seemed like it was just Dec. June/July will be here soon. And then the fireworks on the 4th will be Trump’s head exploding.
AdLib 37 minutes ago
PPO–Doesn’t matter how much the Eagles study; seems brady always pulls it out somehow.
glenn
36 minutes ago
Ad, if he lives that long! WH insider says he’s been binge-eating since Flynn news (dunno what that is).
pinkpantheroz
36 minutes ago
glenn- Good point, that will be very time consuming (cheers to her for such a wonderful goal!). Would be hard to balance that with a sport.
AdLib 36 minutes ago
Ad–I agree. I’d not only like to see trump impeached; I’d like to see his head explode…literally. What do you think would happen to the orange blob on his head when it explodes?
glenn
35 minutes ago
glenn – Nobody’s perfect, including Brady. He seems due for a failure.
AdLib 34 minutes ago
He may get injured – his hand – or something
pinkpantheroz
34 minutes ago
I must say, I do like the Gronk!
pinkpantheroz
33 minutes ago
Trump binge eating? Isn’t that redundant? But it explains the McDonalds they’re building in the WH.
AdLib 33 minutes ago
Ad–yeah, she’s wanted to be a vet since she was six years old. Since her older sister is now in med school to become a pediatric physician, she’s trying to decide if she wants to do that instead. However, she’s kind of hedging her bets, she’s waiting to see how her older sister does once she starts working. Plus, her oldest sister’s father-in-law owns his own vet clinic, so there’s that. He teases her all the time about her joining the practice.
glenn
32 minutes ago
PPO–the Flynn news is that Flynn was indicted. However, trump is not going to drop from binge eating…he’s in excellent health, dontcha know?
glenn
31 minutes ago
glenn – have you seen the old movie The Blob? That’s what would be born from Trump’s head exploding.
AdLib 30 minutes ago
glenn, for what it is worth, tell her to follow her passion. Not many people get to do their ideal profession. The money may not be as great, but there’s a lot of joy working outdoors, and her patients wond complain too much!
pinkpantheroz
30 minutes ago
AdLib 29 minutes ago
glenn, Ad has vanished!
pinkpantheroz
29 minutes ago
PPO– I agree, and I have told her that. I’ve reminded her of how much and how long she’s wanted to be a vet, plus the fact that she is almost guaranteed a job when she’s done school.
glenn
29 minutes ago
back again!
pinkpantheroz
29 minutes ago
I’m here, just switched tabs to post The Blob trailer above!
AdLib 28 minutes ago
Ad, v funny! Steve McQueen, so young
pinkpantheroz
28 minutes ago
glenn, for sure. Huge shortages world wide of vets. She could cherrypick where she would want to work.
pinkpantheroz
27 minutes ago
glenn- That is so cool! She sounds very sharp! Caring for children or animals, sounds like she has a big heart.
AdLib 26 minutes ago
PPO and Ad–It was good to see Steve McQueen so young! He was such a great actor; although this particular movie was definitely not his best!
glenn
26 minutes ago
Yeah, isn’t Trump 6′ 7″ and weighs 190 lbs?
AdLib 25 minutes ago
PPO–don’t know if you saw above about her oldest sister’s father-in-law. In fact, her oldest sister and her husband both work at the clinic. It’s a built-in job for her.
glenn
25 minutes ago
Ad–yeah, she’s a great kid. I’m very proud of her.
glenn
24 minutes ago
Ad–oh, that’s why trump looks so good! 
glenn
24 minutes ago
lay down misere then, glenn. BTW the Veterinary College in Dublin, Ireland is world famous. She could travel AND study!
pinkpantheroz
24 minutes ago
PPO–I didn’t know that about the vet college in Dublin. I’d go with her if she wanted to go there! Not to college, just to Ireland, so she would have a place to live.
glenn
23 minutes ago
Yes, Ad, glenn, can’t get over how svelte Drumpf looks. Must be these new glasses I got from TeaParty Opticians
pinkpantheroz
23 minutes ago
PPO–just don’t know if I could handle that Dublin weather, though.
glenn
22 minutes ago
PPO–WOW–I want a pair of those glasses. Are they orange?
glenn
22 minutes ago
glenn – Count my vote for that as well. My daughter is the same age and she’s thinking over many different majors for college (even though she’s a HS Freshman like your granddaughter). And I try to make her feel totally free to change her mind and like anything she decides to. Being happy in your life and making a good living, not needing to be rich, is the most important thing. Or else you turn out like the soulless Trumps.
AdLib 22 minutes ago
YOu could spend 6 monthe there and 6 months in Atlanta
pinkpantheroz
21 minutes ago
I still say, The Blob was McQueen’s best movie.
AdLib 21 minutes ago
Ad–Exactly. And, usually, except for doctors, most people don’t end up doing what they went to college for. It’s what we all want for our kids, isn’t it…for them to be happy in whatever they pursue? Of course, they do have to be able to pay their own bills, too!
glenn
19 minutes ago
Ad, Nah. Thomas Crown Affair for me, even more than Bullitt or Great Escape
pinkpantheroz
19 minutes ago
I’m hoping Nunes gets indicted for obstructing justice.
AdLib 19 minutes ago
Ad–I should rephrase that–many people don’t end up doing what they went to college for.
glenn
19 minutes ago
PPO–maybe six months in Ireland and the other in Florida. Once my granddaughter goes to college, unless she goes to Ireland, of course, I’m back to Florida.
glenn
18 minutes ago
Ad, surely there must be enough proof of obstruction to proceed already on some of the lesser lights
pinkpantheroz
18 minutes ago
glenn – After seeing how the Millenials were betrayed by playing the game the way they were told, going to college and ending up heavily in debt and unable to get jobs in the fields they studied, I think it’s important for this generation to pursue their passions while understanding the reality of what they can do with it in the real world.
AdLib 17 minutes ago
Ad and PPO–The Great Escape is my favorite. He looked really good in that leather jacket!
glenn
17 minutes ago
glenn, Dublin Miami return $400 approx!
pinkpantheroz
16 minutes ago
Ad–Wouldn’t that be great if Nunes was indicted for obstruction? Or even if the House or Senate censured him? I don’t quite know how censure works; if it has to be in the chamber in which he works, but either way, I’d love to see it.
glenn
15 minutes ago
PPO – I was joking, of course. Papillion may be my fave Steve McQueen film.
AdLib 15 minutes ago
Ad–well put!
glenn
15 minutes ago
Nunes is toast one way or another
pinkpantheroz
15 minutes ago
Ad–Oh, that’s right, Papillon was a classic. He was great in that! Still like that leather jacket, though. It just doesn’t compare with the striped pajamas!
glenn
14 minutes ago
glenn – And may people don’t even end up with the degree for the major they started out with.
AdLib 13 minutes ago
Ad–that, too. My daughter is one of those. She started out for a degree in physical therapy; ended up with a degree in communications. Which suits her personality and needs so much better.
glenn
13 minutes ago
PPO – I think Mueller’s list of indictments is only getting bigger! Many House Repubs should be on his list now!
AdLib 12 minutes ago
PPO–Not sure Nunes is toast; he’s still an asshole.
glenn
11 minutes ago
well, better fly for another week. Thanks, Ad for fixing the twitter thing. Hopefully, bu this time next week, there will be blood on the Capital Steps! UP the Revolution!
pinkpantheroz
11 minutes ago
Ad–Gowdy should be one of those on Mueller’s list. What karma that would be after all Gowdy’s investigations of Hillary!
glenn
11 minutes ago
PPO – Nunes has been pretty safe in his CA district, very Repub. However, his Dem opponent is within single digits so in a year when a Dem can win in AL, it’s an uphill battle but it could happen.
AdLib 11 minutes ago
Seeya PPO!
AdLib 11 minutes ago
byeeee
pinkpantheroz
10 minutes ago
PPO–Take care!
glenn
10 minutes ago
I don’t think it’s a coincidence that Gowdy’s leaving Congress, he knows the trail of corruption in the GOP leads to him.
AdLib 10 minutes ago
PPO–is Nunes up for re-election this year? Would love to see his Dem opponent crush him!
glenn
9 minutes ago
Yeah, Ad, that’s what I’m reading about Gowdy, too. It would be delicious to see him indicted after he leaves Congress!
glenn
9 minutes ago
Yep, he’s in The House so every 2 years! His opponent got a $100,000 donation windfall just today because of Nunes’ memo.
AdLib 8 minutes ago
Well, Ad, I’m exhausted from fighting the cold, so I’m going to call it a night, too. Let’s hope the Eagles crush the Pats!
glenn
8 minutes ago
If Nunes does scrape by and win, in a Dem controlled House, they’ll open investigations into him.
AdLib 7 minutes ago
Stay warm and Go Eagles!
AdLib 7 minutes ago
Yeah, I saw that about donations to Nunes’ opponent, too. In fact, I think I saw tha no donation was over $250, or something like that, so it’s the “little people” helping him out.
glenn
6 minutes ago
Thanks, Ad, g’nite!!
glenn
6 minutes ago
Yep, Dems have the people this year!
