That's why Trump has singled out 3 people leading the investigation into his collusion with Russia; Preet Bharara, Sally Yates and James Comey. This is an attempt at a cover up.

you left out the other libtard talking points: "Nixsonian"; "Saturday Night Massacre"; "constitutional crisis".

There are no talking points. You continue to ignore questions and the reality of life.

Let me know when you are ready to be an adult.

Can we just stop and admire the humor of Quaker defending a president so vigorously?

Don does not need defending; I just enjoy unmasking the liberals to reveal who and what they really are.

It's Fox News. It's the propaganda arm of the Republican party. It's a real problem in this country and I don't see a solution on the horizon.

Surely the DNC has been paying at least $500 per utterance of "Russia" to every liberal talking head on CNN, MSNBC and throughout all the media; it is beyond comical ...........................let the myth live on.

I wonder how vigorously you defended Nixon and blamed the 'liberal media' or the previous Democrat.

It's quite comical.

Don't let the troll trash get to you. You stated your case with class and utilized facts instead of feelings. For this, I agree with you.

Oh, I'm not. I actually get some sort of guilty pleasure watching in flip out, trip over himself, repeat "FOX NEWS", tell others not to do what he himself is doing, etc. It's entertaining in a twisted way. But... I love dark humor!

Well apologies for being concerned about the state of our Democracy. I guess we should all just vote for Gary Johnson and pretend we aren't complicit in the election of Donald Trump.

If this was true, you wouldn't be giddily posting every little anecdote about some business that is investing more money in growing, which has less than zero to do with what you mentioned above.

Whether or not you like the slant that Fox News takes ... and it quite obviously takes a slant ... it's not the "propaganda arm of the Republican Party," and efforts to silence it would be equitable to a denial of first amendment rights.

Well ... if we "all just vote[d] for Gary Johnson," he'd win. For his shortcomings, it'd be better than Clinton or the tiny-handed Cheeto muppet.

It absolutely is. I don't want to silence it, I want people to think for themselves and then they will realize its pure partisan propaganda.

Calling it partisan propaganda and saying it's the propaganda arm of an official political party are not equitable. You know this, I'd imagine.

It has a slant, so it's partisan. I can even see the case for it to be called propaganda (though I could see that case for most major outlets). However, it isn't run by an official party, so it is not the arm of one.

It is propaganda. Again, I'm not interested in your semantics. It is the closest thing we have to state sponsored propaganda and it's only going to get worse with Sinclair buying Tribune media. The majority of the news in this country will be controlled by a select few with ties to Trump and that is very real and very scary for Democracy.

"Spicer had wanted to drop the bombshell news in an emailed statement but it was not transmitting quickly enough, so he ended up standing in the doorway of the press office around 5:40 p.m. and shouting a statement to reporters who happened to be nearby. He then vanished, with his staff locking the door leading to his office."

What kind of internet does the White House have, that an e-mail would not "transmit" quickly enough....?

Since we're talking Sean Spicer, dude probably was too dim to actually open his email program to receive it.

I forgot. Monkey throwing feces.

Carry on, but let me know if you ever accidentally stumble into any well-reasoned cases without misinterpreting them as semantics, Quaker. I'd be interested in hearing them.

I'm just surprised he doesn't fall down more. There are times when he speaks and I swear he was hired as part of some "enabling people with disabilities" program.

Spicey is turrible. If Trump is still in the firing mood, he wouldn't be the worst choice.

I was shocked/annoyed to see Kellyanne Conway derping her way through another TV appearance re: the FBI firing. It's sort of weird that a businessman like Trump who you'd figure HAS to know little things like how important cultivating an image is has complete incompetents like her and Spicer serving as his mouthpieces.

Yup.

I actually thought she she was pretty good during the campaign. Since 1/20 though, she's been pretty subpar.

Partisanship activity is also applicable to ideology and not just political parties. Being partisan isn't necessarily bad.
