Trump sure likes to associate himself with only the best... criminals. I don’t recall a previous president having this many aids/advisors charged and arrested before.

Another one down, another pardon coming. Not sure what these guys are going to do if/when Biden takes office, I'm guessing as Trump walks out the door he'll be issuing them like candy. I'm going to post this story in the News section so I can share on FB, Nick but appreciate you being the first on the site.

Still when one accepts a pardon there are consequences... always a good thing for a prospective recipient to remember.

Trump era turning out to be lawyer heaven. Some of them should be refreshing themselves on the limits of cashing in on a corrupt administration's legal woes.... lotta lawyers ended up charged and convicted or opting to plead out in the aftermath of Watergate.

Well, if he's guilty he should be in jail.

However, I must admit that I loved how OCD his whiteboard at the WH was.

Only the Best (Crooks)*
*Except they keep getting caught, just following the example of the head crook.
The Trump Administration represents the largest infusion of lawless into DC politics in out lifetimes. And who cheers him on? We can thank our lucky stars that Trump has not managed to replace everyone, but he’s trying! Thank god for the Southern District of New York.

Of note, Trump distances, but does not condemn.

There are so many reasons he’s a “bad hombre.” I’m glad to see another member of the swamp is getting justice.

Hot topic today, we decided to merge them all.

From the New York Times:

Mr. Bannon was arrested early Thursday in Connecticut by U.S. postal inspectors and brought to Manhattan where he faced charges in a two-count indictment unsealed in federal district court. He was expected to appear before a U.S. magistrate judge in New York later in the day.

Maybe this is the real reason Trump has been trying to destroy the USPS.

I don't follow him, but I see his posts pop up from time to time. For awhile, I thought it was Steven Spielberg.
