Daily Kos Recommended

Some of the most read and shared stories of the week from Daily Kos

• The Wall Street Journal argues Trump may have committed too many crimes to be investigated [ Yes, I believe this to be the closest anyone has come to a real explanation; yet, the reality is far worse but is a matter of fear which precludes revealing why. Specifically, it is so embarrassing for the feds/doj/judiciary/politicians/and as well, the criminality entailed within the embarrassment, ie., not just cover-ups but actual complicity and self-dealing. Quite simply, it’s not the shits from shithole countries that are the problem in america as ranted by mental case criminal trump; but rather, the shits of shithole america that have brought america down from within as predicted by some very smart, prescient people here and abroad. ]
