hmmm

It will take a lot more than use of campaign funds to force Sessions out. He is in it for the long haul, because he and Trump share the goal of white supremacy.

If the use of funds were the other way around - used Senate funds to pay for campaign stuff - then that would be a scandal. And if Sessions' travel costs were paid by the Trump campaign, instead of his own campaign funds, then that would help show that Sessions was meeting with Kislyak as a Trump surrogate.

But Sessions used his own campaign funds to attend the Republican National Convention. And while there he met with Kislyak. I think hyperventilating over this "revelation" just makes liberals look silly since now Pelosi, like McCaskill, has been caught falsely claiming that she never met with Kisylak. Meeting with the Russian ambassador is not inherently suspicious, nor should it be treated as such.

Which is why all the lying seems so much more suspicious.

But yeah, you're 100% correct. An awful lot more dirt needs to come up for this to end. Remember, he cannot be investigated by the government unless he himself approves it, so there's an awful lot of incentive not to step down

Cringeworthy interview by Page. Cooper dismantled him.

Wow, that was painful. Page is an idiot.

Here's another Republican getting called out for his bulls--t, from tonight's Real Time with Bill Maher. Also notice the laughter from the audience during some of his ridiculous answers:

I can't even begin to imagine Trumps thought patterns to accuse Obama of a Watergate style conspiracy against him and then get bored and tweet about the apprentice a half hour later....

If you're wondering where he stole the "wire tapping" conspiracy, it was from Breitbart. Reminder: He's President, he can get the actual evidence if it exists...

This is awesome, a paranoid, delusional, moronic president, that can't deal with reality.
Good choice Merka.
