Sara being ripped for tweeting a pic of a Trump briefing about the Syria Strike, but Pence is in the room (he was in Peru)

I guess it doesn't say when it was a briefing about Syria

Which photo should we use? I don't care, just pick one.

Plus, it's in black and white, so it has to be from the 1930's or 40's and Trump wasn't President then, so we know it's fake.

I hope Bernie doesn’t run again - he’s just a perenneal spoiler.

Please enlighten us, tells us all what you actually know about Bernie.

Most of the democrat candidates lining up to run are as hostile to Christians and the constitution as she was.

The Clinton family is Christian.

 

[mr-x]

The Clinton family is Christian.

Clinton family is from a predominantly Christian culture. That doesn't make Hillary friendly to Christian values or personal freedom.

What do you mean by “predominantly Christian culture?” Hillary is a member of the Methodist church and has spoken about her faith on numerous occasions.

She also has a fake southern accent.

 

[enlytend]

She also has a fake southern accent.

Acquired, since she’s married to a southerner and lived in the south. Like my NY friends who have sort of a British accent now after years in the UK.

What does that have to with her religion? (Spoiler: Nothing.)

She's fake.

Next up: Name one other politician with as many accents as Hillary.

 

[enlytend]

She's fake.

I respect your opinion, but it’s just that - your opinion. And it still doesn’t mean her faith is fake.

Christian plus personal freedom? Freedom to smoke what you want? Marry who you want? Do with your body what you want?

"But Trump conferred with his national security advisers later Sunday and told them he was upset the sanctions were being officially rolled out because he was not yet comfortable executing them, according to several people familiar with the plan."

haha, wow:

Michael Cohen's mystery third client is Sean Hannity
https://www.cnn.com/2018/04/16/poli...=twCNN041618michael-cohen-hearing0314PMVODtop

The fact that Sean Hannity has been railing against the FBI's investigation of Michael Cohen without disclosing that Michael Cohen IS HIS LAWYER is wildly unethical, and also perfectly on-brand for a Fox News host
Lauren Duca‏Verified account @laurenduca 4m4 minutes ago

he's.............................finished

Sean Hannity just now on the radio "I'm going to have to decide if I'm going to put out a statement here."

"Shepard Smith just said Sean "Hannity's producers are working to contact him" after word broke that the former Fox News host is Michael Cohen's mystery third client.

"For us, the elephant in the room is that Sean Hannity is said to have been a third client of Michael Cohen," Smith said. "Hannity's producers are working to contact him" and, "We'll report on it when we know the rest of it."

[offthehandle]

Multibillionaire steel magnate Fritz Thyssen-the man whose steel combine was the cold heart of the Nazi war machine-talked and talked and talked to a joint US-UK interrogation team.

… What the Allied investigators never understood was that they were not asking Thyssen the right question. Thyssen did not need any foreign bank accounts because his family secretly owned an entire chain of banks.

He did not have to transfer his Nazi assets at the end of World War II, all he had to do was transfer the ownership documents – stocks, bonds, deeds and trusts–from his bank in Berlin through his bank in Holland to his American friends in New York City: Prescott Bush and Herbert Walker [father in law of Prescott Bush]. Thyssen’s partners in crime were the father and [grandfather] of a future President of the United States [George Herbert Walker Bush]. (John Loftus, How the Bush family made its fortune from the Nazis: The Dutch Connection, Global Research, February 2002, edit by GR)

The American public is not aware of the links of the Bush family to Nazi Germany because the historical record has been carefully withheld by the mainstream media.

Good thing Hannity already not objective

And it's only Monday. Have a fraudster come and drain the swamp, that makes sense.

Watching Fox, seeing some trying to act like it's not an issue Hannity and Trump share the same lawyer.

• I assumed those conversations were confidential, but to be absolutely clear they never involved any matter between me and a third-party.
  

Michael Cohen has never represented me in any matter. I never retained him, received an invoice, or paid legal fees. I have occasionally had brief discussions with him about legal questions about which I wanted his input and perspective.

I think what's going on here is that the government was trying to say to Cohen you are not a 'real' lawyer because you don't have other clients and you only handle hush payouts. And Cohen argued back 'yeah I have other clients" Then he grabs a Hannity thinking he a stooge for Trump, will go along. Feels just throwing out a name.

He admitted Hannity was his client.

Then Hannity, being stupid said:

"Sean Hannity's statement on his radio show right now about how he never paid Cohen and only talked to him a couple times on the phone DESTROYS the client privilege relationship Cohen is arguing at this minute in court to protect Hannity. What an idiot."

There is a lot coming out right now, hard to keep up:

#NSA friends tell me they have Hannity in OPERATIONAL calls with known RIS agents. Team Mueller has it all. He is going down. SAD!

Fake news was actually paid for Russian propaganda "Only Hannity reported this" in @KeithSchiller45 likes and @GenFlynn feed #TrumpRussia https://twitter.com/seanhannity/status/855906338781765633 …

Remember when Louise Mensch said Fox News was under an FBI counter intelligence investigation? :sas1:in mid 2017?

Time will tell which is true, but Hannity is fukked.

Call Sean Hannity, they've been tight for awhile. Name dropped him 8 times in just 1:14. 8 times full name, 7, one he just said Sean.

Christian plus personal freedom? Freedom to smoke what you want? Marry who you want? Do with your body what you want?

That plus, not be forced to purchase coverage for abortions, be notified when your underage child ask for birth control, an abortion. Not be forced to celebrate or affirm gay sex in order to keep your job.

Freedom works both ways, not just your pet peeves.

Cohen wanted to keep up the allusion he had other clients. That was the goal. Hannity got ran over lol
