It appears he wants to drag this out as long as he can? Either way, heās hosed.
Itās sad to think that this appointment is not really surprising at all. Trump has no problem with torture. He hired Paul Manafort knowing full well that he had made his fortune leading āThe Torturersā Lobby.ā Hereās a well-researched article from 2016 listing some of the heinous torturers Manafort represented throughout his career. These were all on public record at the time Trump hired Manafort as his Campaign Manager.
Tillerson makes this statement and hours later is fired by Trump. Very telling. Trump acts to defend Putin once again.
And didnāt Tillerson also acknowledge recently that Russia did in fact meddle in our electionā¦surely that began his downfall from trumpās good graces? While Iām no fan of Tillerson, at the very least he had more honesty (with a shred of decency thrown in) than his boss.
On a lighter note:
Trump invents the Space Force, yea that happened. 
This death is currently āunexplainedā and has not been linked to the recent Salisbury poisonings. However, I canāt help wondering if someoneās trying to send a message to anyone whoās thinking of betraying Mother Russia. That message might extend beyond the UK to several individuals currently under indictment for possible Russia-related crimes here in the US.
And this is actually looking more sinister by the minute. From the BBC:
You bet it is! and I strongly suspect that applies to trumpy-bear too. Iāve been well-aware for some time of a double-digit list of āunusual deathsā (aka murders) of Russians from another sourceā¦I wish I could say this surprises me, but Putin likes to make sure that everyone [relevant] knows he can āreach themā no matter where they are. Super-creepy guy that our POTUS would like to emulateā¦
So wtf Robert Mueller? You were just about to put Trump under oathā¦then nothing. Itās just over? I just canāt help but to think the meeting went something like thisā¦*slides a peice of paper with $$ on it over to Mueller. Done.
trust the process
You donāt understand Mueller if thatās what you think, lolā¦

Septguy, whatās with your link?
Couldnāt get it to bring up the article, tried to edit it. House Dems on Intelligence Committee to publish report countering GOP Finding/Conclusion.
Oh well, thatās okā¦
Septguy - Thanks for sharing. I think this link will work. If not, readers can search on " House Democrats Cite Evidence of Trump-Russia Collusion "

Heather Nauert ā From the Fox & Friends farm team to the fourth highest position in the State Department. A top U.S. diplomat with no diplomatic experience. What else is new?
I have started to worry that Trump, given his hero worship of Putin, might see if he could get away with some of the same crap weāre witnessing from the Kremlin. Who needs a wall if you have poison gas? I wouldnāt be at all surprised if we see some suspicious deaths in the U.S. soon. Monkey see. Monkey do.
Jezzzā¦what a cluster f this whole administration is.
you can say that again
