Roger Waters rips on Trump:

http://www.inquisitr.com/4250472/rog...ing-some-fans/

I find it amusing that fans are surprised by his political stance, as if it is something new:
Quote:
“You are a piece of poo,” one commenter told Waters. “You are a fake. And I never thought I would turn my back on Pink Floyd. You are a disappointment to those of us who truly hate the NWO.”

“Maybe the crowd was amazing but you sucked,” wrote another commenter. “You were disgusting and you are oh so proud, aren’t you? Anti-God, anti-Trump. Satanic, it was. Disgusting!”

“I loved the music and the show was fantastic but your hatred and disrespect for President Trump were unnecessary,” another commenter wrote beneath Waters’s post. “I paid to listen to the music, not your political views.”

Former CIA official claims Trump directly ordered Kushner to establish the secret communications channel with the Russians. This was attempted before during the campaign and prior to Trump inauguration, which would be a violation of the Logan Act.

Quote:
Donald Trump's son-in-law and close adviser, Jared Kushner, had at least three previously undisclosed contacts with the Russian ambassador to the United States during and after the 2016 presidential campaign, seven current and former US officials said.

Those contacts included two phone calls between April and November last year, two of the sources said. By early this year, Mr Kushner had become a focus of the FBI investigation into whether there was any collusion between the Trump campaign and the Kremlin, said two other sources - one current and one former law enforcement official.

Mr Kushner initially had come to the attention of FBI investigators last year as they began scrutinising former national security adviser Michael Flynn'€™s connections with Russian officials, the two sources said.

While the FBI is investigating Mr Kushner'€™s contacts with Russia, he is not currently a target of that investigation, the current law enforcement official said.

Wapo has a good summary of all the investigations into Trumps Russia ties that are currently going on along with all of the expected outcomes.

Current bodies running investigations. Only the Special Counsel is running a criminal investigation, the rest are just committee fact finding investigations.


All are happening simultaneously at different stages


Scope of each investigation and level of access they have



Rest can be found here:

I like how Trump cites a Fox news story based on a single anonymous source to contradict the news based on anonymous sources he whines about.

Lost in all of the Federal investigations into Trump and his Russia connections is the New York State Attorney General looking into Trump's mob connections, both Italian and Russian. RICO (racketeering) charges are very serious. Trump should be most fearful of these charges as they could immediately remove him from office and put him in a prison cell.

http://www.politico.com/magazine/sto...ew-york-214734

Worse for Trump, the NY AG brought on Howard Master, who worked under Preet Bharara - one of those attorneys Trump fired who was investigating him as he took office - to look further into Trump's dealings.

http://www.salon.com/2017/03/20/new-...nvestigations/

There's rumors of a sealed indictment and such, but until something official is announced it is all nothing but rumor. This is more smoke, meaning there is a fire someplace.

This reads more like a line by SNL than an official White House statement.

President Trump has a magnetic personality and exudes positive energy, which is infectious to those around him. He has an unparalleled ability to communicate with people, whether he is speaking to a room of three or an arena of 30,000. He has built great relationships throughout his life and treats everyone with respect. He is brilliant with a great sense of humor . . . and an amazing ability to make people feel special and aspire to be more than even they thought possible.

This is exactly what I thought reading it. Exactly. It's perfect for the Kims.

I fully expect a statement soon stating that he is immortal and only shoots hole in one's.

I like that description so much that it is now my workplace email signature, as a description of how bigly I am.

Morning Joe nails the foreign trip. The contrast between BLOTUS behavior in Saudi Arabia and in Europe is striking.

I find it amusing that fans are surprised by his political stance, as if it is something new:
it is hilarious. at least most people have common sense.

“If you don’t know what side of the political spectrum Roger Waters is on at this point, I don’t know what to say,” a fan wrote.
“He’s only been sharing his sometimes unpopular views for 45 years minimum. Wake up people and stop ######ing complaining. Roger is not going to tailor his performance to you. It’s his show, not ours. He writes the songs, and we are just lucky enough to hear them.”
