It appears he wants to drag this out as long as he can? Either way, he’s hosed.
It’s 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 “The Torturers’ Lobby.” Here’s 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 didn’t Tillerson also acknowledge recently that Russia did in fact meddle in our election…surely that began his downfall from trump’s good graces? While I’m 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 “unexplained” and has not been linked to the recent Salisbury poisonings. However, I can’t help wondering if someone’s trying to send a message to anyone who’s 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. I’ve been well-aware for some time of a double-digit list of “unusual deaths” (aka murders) of Russians from another source…I wish I could say this surprises me, but Putin likes to make sure that everyone [relevant] knows he can “reach them” no matter where they are. Super-creepy guy that our POTUS would like to emulate…
So wtf Robert Mueller? You were just about to put Trump under oath…then nothing. It’s just over? I just can’t help but to think the meeting went something like this…*slides a peice of paper with $$ on it over to Mueller. Done.
trust the process

Septguy, what’s with your link?
Couldn’t 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, that’s ok…
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 – 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 we’re witnessing from the Kremlin. Who needs a wall if you have poison gas? I wouldn’t be at all surprised if we see some suspicious deaths in the U.S. soon. Monkey see. Monkey do.

One tip-off was trump’s comment about being “president for life”…WTF!? He is drunk on power & money, and with Putin, it’s a combination of envy & fear (that Putin can also destroy him). trump has respect for that, but you’re right, he’s also a monkey that tries to copy. He’s been in awe of other dictators & their methods for quite some time, so now he wants a wall, he wants the FBI & CIA that literally works FOR him (does his bidding) & he talks about the death penalty for drug dealers (like Duterte in the Philippines), and more & more he hires only the kind of people who lack moral-ethical boundaries just as he does. He needs to be OUT OF OFFICE. And btw, Amy, there have been a few suspicious deaths IN the United States already -just not attributed to trumpy but likely to the Russians.
