Overload? Overboard? Over it!
Author: Raine    Date: 02/14/2018 14:08:38

The White House covered for a man who beats up women. Before that, ages ago -- like last month -- we learned that the lawyer for the who would end up occupying the White House paid an adult film star to stay quiet about her affair with said occupant.

Today we are told by that lawyer that he paid that money out of his own pocket. That's funny, because in my world - we pay lawyers.

That seems strange because I remember this from that same time when the world was paying attention to the scandal before Stormy
The company, Essential Consultants LLC, was reportedly created in Delaware -- which offers a higher standard of privacy to business owners -- by attorney Michael Cohen, according to the Journal's report, which cited corporate records and people familiar with the matter.

The Wall Street Journal first reported last week that Cohen had paid the former porn star, Stephanie Clifford, known as Stormy Daniels, $130,000 in exchange for her silence about the alleged encounter. Following that report, Cohen said in a statement that Trump "vehemently denies" any encounter between the two.

In addition to Essential Consultants LLC, a person familiar with the matter told The Wall Street Journal that aliases were used to hide the names of people involved, including "Peggy Peterson" for Daniels.


This looks like an admission of breaking campaign finance laws. You will recall that John Edwards was indicted for a similar situation. He was found not guilty and admitted far less than what Michael Cohen now admits to.

Between Rob Porter and Ms. Daniels, why are we expected to believe that there is anything ethical, moral or truthful from anyone associated with the in the White House?

Here we are with the heads of at least THREE National Security Agencies saying that Russia is already interfering with our Mid-term elections and hasn't directed any agency to do something about it.

I am over this shit.

Happy Valentine Day.

I wish I knew what was causing it! I'd take a decongestant but it's not like I'm stuffed up.

That is a problem. I, however, know exactly what is trying to kill me. Fornicating trees. There is pollen everywhere.

This makes me flip my lid.

Veterans Affairs Secretary David J. Shulkin’s chief of staff doctored an email and made false statements to create a pretext for taxpayers to cover expenses for the secretary’s wife on a 10-day trip to Europe last summer, the agency’s inspector general has found.

Vivieca Wright Simpson, VA’s third-most senior official, altered language in an email from an aide coordinating the trip to make it appear that Shulkin was receiving an award from the Danish government — then used the award to justify paying for his wife’s travel, Inspector General Michael J. Missal said in a report released Wednesday. VA paid $4,312 for her airfare.

Did you ever go there?

I have friends who often invited me to hang with them there, never made it. .

For the longest time, Deitle's had this reputation as the place for the dwindling redneck population of MoCo would go to gather. I know this wasn't true, but for the upwardly mobile, privileged youth of the Wheaton/Kensington/Bethesda/Rockville area of MoCo wouldn't want to rub elbows with "that kind of people." This is one of those cases of wishing what I knew now back then.

Aww.

It's really hitting my friends in MoCo hard.

Ya know, fuck the anal fistula. He may as well jam a pistol in his mouth and blow off the back of his own head for all the good his worthless "prayers and condolences" will do.
