October 27th, 2017 - October 29th, 2017. 347-349 days since the Nov 8, 2016, election of some rich asshole, no.45, and 279-281 days since the Jan 20th inauguration.
Here’s What We ALL Need To Do If the rich asshole Moves To Fire Mueller And Shut Down The Russia Probe
Now that Special Counsel Robert Mueller is about to indict someone from Team the rich asshole, The rich asshole and his cronies are panicking. They are realizing that the Russia probe is reaching all the way to the top levels of the rich asshole World, and it might touch the rich asshole’s kids – or even the rich asshole himself. Therefore, it shouldn’t be a surprise if the rich asshole moves to fire Robert Mueller in an effort to shut this probe down before more indictments start coming down. However, thanks to the good people over at MoveOn.org, there is a nationwide plan in place to respond to a Mueller firing within hours. Here is an image, via Twitter, of what that page looks like. You can even search by your zip code.
the rich asshole and his swamp creatures may believe that they are above the law. They are not. Nobody – not even and perhaps ESPECIALLY not the president – is above legal ramifications for operating in an unlawful fashion. These people are treasonous, and Robert Mueller is going to prove it. If Mueller is removed, we might as well hand the United States of America over to Vladimir Putin and the Kremlin.
America, we must be the guardians of our own democratic republic. These incompetent authoritarians are destroying this country with their treasonous ways, and the only way to rid the nation of the scourge of white supremacy, homophobia, misogyny, xenophobia, and all other forms of dangerous bigotry and autocracy operating at the highest levels of our government is to remove and jail them all. Robert Mueller is key to that. He could save us – so if the rich asshole tries to fire Mueller, it is up to refuse to let that stand.
the rich asshole Tries to Shift Focus as First Charges Reportedly Loom in Russia Case
WASHINGTON — Pushing back against the accelerating criminal investigation into his campaign’s ties to Russia, President the rich asshole argued on Sunday that its focus should instead be on his 2016 rival, Hillary Clinton, even as the special counsel’s inquiry was reportedly poised to produce its first indictment.
In a series of tweets, some rich asshole said Republicans were now fighting the Russia allegations by looking into Mrs. Clinton, apparently referring to new House investigations into her email practices and an Obama-era uranium deal with Russia. But the president made it clear he believed that Mrs. Clinton should be pursued more forcefully, writing, “DO SOMETHING!”
He did not say who should take action or what it should be, though critics have accused him of trying to sway the congressional and special counsel inquiries into Russian ties. Still, the outburst suggested that some rich asshole, increasingly angry and frustrated about the investigations, is waging a concerted campaign to shift the focus to Mrs. Clinton and other Democrats.
After long expressing anger that his allies have not done enough to protect him from the inquiries, he is now enlisting White House and administration officials, employing his vast social media presence, and putting pressure on the Republican-led Congress to deflect any potentially damaging reports.
Last week, some rich asshole asserted that it was Mrs. Clinton who was guilty of having colluded with Russia to sway the 2016 election, endeavoring to turn the tables on the crux of the allegations against his campaign, and then sent his spokeswoman to the White House briefing room to repeat that charge. He urged the Justice Department to lift a gag order on an informant in a federal investigation involving Russia’s efforts to gain a foothold in the American uranium industry during the Obama administration.
And on Sunday, in tweets to his more than 40 million followers, he offered a litany of accusations against Mrs. Clinton and seemed to praise Republicans for starting the new congressional investigations.
“Never seen such Republican ANGER & UNITY as I have concerning the lack of investigation on Clinton made Fake Dossier (now $12,000,000?), the Uranium to Russia deal, the 33,000 plus deleted Emails, the Comey fix and so much more,” some rich asshole wrote. “Instead they look at phony the rich asshole/Russia ‘collusion,’ which doesn’t exist.”
“The Dems are using this terrible (and bad for our country) Witch Hunt for evil politics, but the R’s,” he added, “are now fighting back like never before. There is so much GUILT by Democrats/Clinton, and now the facts are pouring out. DO SOMETHING!”
some rich asshole was apparently referring to reports last week that Mrs. Clinton’s campaign and the Democratic National Committee had paid for research that was included in a salacious dossier made public in January by BuzzFeed. The dossier contained claims about connections between some rich asshole, his associates and Russia.
The president was also reviving unproved allegations that Mrs. Clinton was part of a quid pro quo in which the Clinton Foundation received donations in exchange for her support as secretary of state for a business deal that gave Russia control over a large share of uranium production in the United States.
And he was returning to questions about Mrs. Clinton’s use of a private email server and how James B. Comey, the former F.B.I. director, handled an investigation into the matter, which was closed with no charges being filed. some rich asshole initially cited the email case as a reason for firing Mr. Comey, before conceding that it was because of the Russia inquiry.
The president’s Twitter fusillade came as he and his advisers braced for the first public action by Robert S. Mueller III, the special prosecutor named after Mr. Comey’s ouster to investigate Russian meddling in the 2016 election. As part of his inquiry, Mr. Mueller is believed to be examining whether there was collusion between some rich asshole’s campaign and Moscow, and whether the president obstructed justice when he fired Mr. Comey.
CNN reported on Friday that a federal grand jury in Washington had approved the first charges in Mr. Mueller’s investigation, and that plans had been made for anyone charged to be taken into custody as early as Monday. CNN said the target of the charges was unclear. The New York Times has not confirmed that charges have been approved.
Multiple congressional committees have undertaken their own investigations into Russian meddling in the elections, following up on the conclusion of United States intelligence agencies that Moscow sought to sway the contest in favor of some rich asshole — an idea that he has frequently dismissed as a hoax.
Some Republicans have been reluctant to embrace some rich asshole’s efforts to shift the spotlight away from Russia’s interference, arguing that the episode should be scrutinized as a foreign policy and national security issue, not a matter of personal grievance for the president.
Speaking on NBC’s “Meet the Press” on Sunday, Senator Rob Portman, Republican of Ohio, said that some rich asshole had been “too defensive” about Mr. Mueller’s inquiry. “We ought to instead focus on the outrage that the Russians meddled in our elections,” said Mr. Portman, who serves on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee.
Representative Trey Gowdy of South Carolina, the chairman of the House Oversight Committee, urged his fellow Republicans on “Fox News Sunday” to give Mr. Mueller “a chance to do his job.” But a the rich asshole ally, Gov. Chris Christie of New Jersey, said on ABC’s “This Week” that if unspecified “new facts” put Mr. Mueller in a “compromised position,” he must recuse himself.
Ty Cobb, the White House lawyer handling the response to the Russia investigation, said that the president’s tweets were “unrelated to the activities of the special counsel, with whom he continues to cooperate.”
But they reflected a habit of some rich asshole’s in which he seeks to tar an opponent with the same accusations leveled at him. He did so last year during a presidential debate when Mrs. Clinton called him “Putin’s puppet,” responding: “No puppet, no puppet. You’re the puppet. No, you’re the puppet.”
The tweets came days after House Republicans announced that they were opening new investigations into two of some rich asshole’s most frequently cited grievances: the Obama Justice Department’s investigation of Mrs. Clinton’s emails and the uranium deal.
some rich asshole is working to fuel those inquiries. The White House acknowledged on Friday that the president had urged the Justice Department to release the informant in the uranium investigation from his confidentiality agreement so he could speak to Congress. Critics called the move improper presidential interference in a federal criminal inquiry, but some rich asshole’s advisers said he was merely encouraging transparency.
In recent days some rich asshole has suggested that he believes that the questions he has been raising about Mrs. Clinton’s conduct should put to rest any allegations about his own actions, and end the scrutiny of Russia’s meddling in the election.
“This was the Democrats coming up with an excuse for losing an election,” some rich asshole told reporters last week. “They lost it by a lot. They didn’t know what to say, so they made up the whole Russia hoax. Now it’s turning out that the hoax has turned around, and you look at what’s happened with Russia, and you look at the uranium deal, and you look at the fake dossier. So that’s all turned around.”
Senator Susan Collins, a Maine Republican who serves on the Intelligence Committee, said on CBS’s “Face the Nation” on Sunday that while she had yet to encounter “any definitive evidence of collusion,” she had seen “lots of evidence that the Russians were very active in trying to influence the elections.”
THE RICH ASSHOLE PANICS ON TWITTER, ALLEGES DEMOCRAT CONSPIRACY AHEAD OF FIRST MUELLER INDICTMENT
The indictments are coming — and the president seems to be panicking.
President some rich asshole on Sunday accused Democrats and federal investigators of conspiring against his agenda as the clock ticked on the first indictment from Special Counsel Robert Mueller, which is expected Monday.
the rich asshole, in his first tweets about Mueller’s the rich asshole-Russia probe since news broke of the impending charges, seemed especially unnerved, shouting into the Twittersphere for someone to “DO SOMETHING.”
“The Dems are using this terrible (and bad for our country) Witch Hunt for evil politics,” the rich asshole wrote in one of several tweets, where he also called the allegations of his campaign’s Russian collusion “phony.”
the rich asshole once again dredged up a series of scandals related to Hillary Clinton — such as her deleted emails and her campaign’s funding of the infamous dossier on the rich asshole’s supposed Russian ties — and suggested without evidence that his opponents are trying to halt his presidential plans.
“There is so much GUILT by Democrats/Clinton, and now the facts are pouring out. DO SOMETHING!” he wrote.
“All of this 'Russia' talk right when the Republicans are making their big push for historic Tax Cuts & Reform. Is this coincidental? NOT!” he added in another tweet.
the rich asshole has been rampantly opposed to the federal and congressional investigations into his campaign’s suspected Russian collusion, dismissing them as "fake" and a politically motivated “witch hunt.”
But his latest rant — one of his longest Twitter statements yet about the probes — seemed to show the pressure rising as the first criminal charges loom.
Multiple media outlets reported this weekend that Mueller, who is leading the federal investigation into the rich asshole’s campaign, will hand down his first indictment on Monday. There has been no early indication of what the charges are or who will face them.
BuzzFeed News revealed that the rich asshole’s former campaign manager Paul Manafort has become a focus of the FBI investigation due to a series of suspicious wire transfers to offshore companies, which totaled more than $3 million between 2012 and 2013. But it is not clear if Manafort’s transfers are tied to the impending indictments.
Manafort has had his Virginia home raided as part of Mueller’s probe and was already warned that he will be indicted for unspecified charges, The New York Times reported in September.
Manafort and the rich asshole have both denied any wrongdoing or collusion with the Kremlin.

President some rich asshole got a later start than usual on Twitter Sunday morning, claiming that the GOP has joined him in his anger at Hillary Clinton’s supposed involvement in a dossier that still could prove damaging to the president.
According to the tweeting president, Clinton is personally responsible for the dossier that was initially financed by a conservative critic.
Writing on Twitter, the rich asshole claimed, “Never seen such Republican ANGER & UNITY as I have concerning the lack of investigation on Clinton made Fake Dossier (now $12,000,000?),….”
Moments later he added, “…the Uranium to Russia deal, the 33,000 plus deleted Emails, the Comey fix and so much more.

the rich asshole Approval Rating Drops To All-Time Low

Donald Trump is currently suffering from the lowest approval rating of his presidency, with just 38 percent feeling positive about his job performance, a new poll shows.
The response to the NBC News/Wall Street Journal Poll comes following several weeks of public bickering between Trump and other GOP politicians, and criticism toward the president over alleged comments he made during a phone call to the widow of a soldier killed in Niger.
The poll, conducted between October 23 and 26, showed 58 percent of respondents disapprove of Trump’s performance; with his 38 percent disapproval rate dipping from a previous low of 39 percent in May.
“This is his worst showing of his young presidency so far,” Democratic pollster Fred Yang, from Hart Research Associates, told NBC News of the survey’s results.
“Are we starting to see the fraying of the Trump base … after this week of [Republican] infighting?” he added.
During the same stage of their presidencies, the NBC/WSJ poll saw Democrat Barack Obama enjoying an approval rating of 51 percent, George W. Bush an approval rating of 88 percent, and Bill Clinton 47 percent.
As well as Trump’s performance as commander in chief, the survey also asked its 900 respondents their views on how the president has handled a number of issues, and found he was struggling.
A majority (59 percent) did not approve of the way the president had tackled the situation of protests within the NFL, while 51 percent felt he was mishandling the situation in North Korea, and 54 percent did not approve of the way he acted in the aftermath of the hurricane in Puerto Rico.
However, 48 percent approved of the way he had handled the aftermath of the hurricanes in Texas and Florida, and 42 percent believed he was doing a good job on the economy, compared to the 37 percent who disapproved of his handling of the economy.
The poll had a margin or error of plus or minus 3.3 percentage points.

the rich asshole ignored his kids until college: former wife
the rich asshole Ignored His Kids Until College, Ivana Says
Harriet Sinclair
Posted with permission from Newsweek
Donald Trump’s first wife Ivana claims he wasn’t able to speak to his children properly until they were adults.
In a radio interview with AM970’s The Answer released on Sunday, in which she was promoting her new book Raising Trump, the former model and businesswoman said the president had found it difficult to interact with the kids.
“He did not know how to speak the children's language,” Ivana told host John Catsimatidis.
“He was not able to do it until the kids were in university,” she added, explaining that after she divorced the billionaire businessman, she decided she would be the primary caregiver for the couple’s three children, Donald Jr., Ivanka, and Eric.
Indeed, the president appeared to have an awkward exchange with the children of White House reporters who visited the Oval Office on Friday in Halloween costumes.
The president told one child: "You have no weight problems; that's the good news, right?" also telling reporters they had done "a good job here," referring to their kids, while adding of himself: "I wouldn't say you did a good job here," Business Insider reported.
Ivana and her former husband have remained on reasonably good terms, with the pair reportedly still talking frequently; although the release of her new book and subsequent comments about the current first lady have resulted in a seemingly frosty relationship with Melania.
After Ivana joked that she was the real first lady, and commented she tried to avoid calling the White House in case Melania picked up, the first lady hit back at the comments.
Melania’s spokesperson said in a statement: "Mrs. Trump has made the White House a home for Barron and the President. She loves living in Washington, D.C., and is honored by her role as First Lady of the United States. She plans to use her title and role to help children, not sell books. There is clearly no substance to this statement from an ex, this is unfortunately only attention-seeking and self-serving noise."
Ivana has continued promoting her book, which details the way she raised her children, explaining to AM970 “I kept them busy, busy, busy. Because if you keep your kids busy they have no time to get in trouble."
She also added further advice for parents, stating: “don't give your kids too much money” and detailing the classes she put her children in.
"Ivanka had singing classes, piano classes, ballet classes. The boys had hockey classes, karate classes, skiing classes, golf classes, tennis classes,” she said.
“You try everything, and then you watch to see what the kids are good at … Ivanka, for example, she did not like the piano classes, so I cut them off. She did not enjoy it. And I know if you don't enjoy what you're doing, you can never be great at it,” she added.

the rich asshole calls for investigation into Clinton ties to dossier
BY BRETT SAMUELS - 10/29/17 10:35 AM EDT
President the rich asshole on Sunday lashed out in a series of tweets over the ongoing investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election and what he termed a "lack of investigation" into Hillary Clinton.
“Never seen such Republican ANGER & UNITY as I have concerning the lack of investigation on Clinton made Fake Dossier,” the rich asshole tweeted.
“Instead they look at phony the rich asshole/Russia 'collusion,' which doesn’t exist. The Dems are using this terrible (and bad for our country) Witch Hunt for evil politics, but the R’s are now fighting back like never before. There is so much GUILT by Democrats/Clinton, and now the facts are pouring out. DO SOMETHING!” the rich asshole tweeted.
The president’s outrage on Sunday was apparently prompted by a Washington Post report earlier this week that a lawyer working for Clinton’s campaign and the Democratic National Committee (DNC) helped fund an unverified dossier that contains allegations about the rich asshole and his ties to Russia as well as more salacious charges.
the rich asshole claimed the dossier cost $12 million, which is apparently a reference to the amount the law firm Perkins Coie was paid to represent the Clinton campaign and the DNC during the 2016 campaign. Perkins Coie retained the firm Fusion GPS to conduct research on the rich asshole, but the law firm did a variety of other work for Clinton and the DNC.
the rich asshole also cited an Obama-era Uranium One deal with Russia, the loss of some of Clinton’s emails during her tenure as secretary of State and “the Comey fix" — apparently meaning former FBI Director James Comey's decision to clear Clinton of charges during the election — as sources of outrage.
Never seen such Republican ANGER & UNITY as I have concerning the lack of investigation on Clinton made Fake Dossier (now $12,000,000?),....
...the Uranium to Russia deal, the 33,000 plus deleted Emails, the Comey fix and so much more. Instead they look at phony Trump/Russia,....
..."collusion," which doesn't exist. The Dems are using this terrible (and bad for our country) Witch Hunt for evil politics, but the R's...
...are now fighting back like never before. There is so much GUILT by Democrats/Clinton, and now the facts are pouring out. DO SOMETHING!
Special counsel Robert Mueller is looking into the dossier, as well as Russian interference in the 2016 election and alleged ties between the Kremlin and presidential candidates.
A federal grand jury has approved the first charges in Mueller’s investigation, CNN reported Friday. Those charged could be taken into custody as soon as Monday, though it’s unclear what the charges are because they have been sealed.
the rich asshole earlier this week claimed on Twitter that it’s “commonly agreed” he did not collude with Russia. A member of the Senate Intelligence Committee on Sunday pushed back on that statement, saying “it’s way premature to say some kind of conclusion has been reached.”
The president has consistently denied collusion between his campaign and Moscow and has called the ongoing investigation a "witch hunt."
Puerto Rican electric utility says it's canceling deal with Whitefish
BY MAX GREENWOOD - 10/29/17 04:17 PM EDT
Puerto Rico's state-run electric utility said Sunday that it has accepted the governor's request to immediately cancel a $300 million contract with a small Montana-based energy firm amid mounting controversy over the deal, according to media reports.
Ricardo Ramos, the island's energy authority executive director, announced the decision during a press conference, according to ABC News.
The decision followed another press conference on Sunday in which Gov. Ricardo Rosselló called for the Puerto Rico Electric Power Authority (PREPA) to "immediately" cancel the deal.
Not long afterward, local media reported that Ramos had canceled the contract.
[AHORA] Director de @AEEONLINE, Ricardo Ramos, asegura cancelación de contrato a Whitefish no se debe a que haya ilegalidades en el mismo.
PREPA cut the deal to repair Puerto Rico's crumbling electrical grid on Sept. 26, just days after Hurricane Maria barrelled across the island.
At the time the storm hit the island, Whitefish had only two full-time employees. The arrangement drew intense scrutiny, with critics arguing that the firm did not have experience working on a project as large in scale as that in Puerto Rico. The island has been without power for more than a month.
The company, however, has argued that its experience working in mountainous terrain qualified it to take on the project.
The arrangement came under fire in part because Whitefish is located in the hometown of Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke, though he has said he had no contact with the firm until after it was awarded the PREPA contract.
FEMA also sought to distance itself from the Whitefish deal, saying in a statement last week that the decision to award the contract to the Montana-based company was made by PREPA alone. The White House has also distanced itself from the contract.
PREPA and Whitefish signed the deal with no competitive bidding process in late September, and the contract guaranteed that FEMA “has reviewed and approved” it — a characterization the agency denied.
Questions about the contract prompted two congressional investigations, a Department of Homeland Security inspector general audit, a review by Puerto Rico’s government and numerous calls for more investigations.
More than a month after Hurricane Maria ravaged Puerto Rico, most of the territory's residents — U.S. citizens — remain without power. As of Sunday afternoon, just under 30 percent of the island had electricity, according to a website maintained by the Puerto Rican government.
Whitefish Energy fired from Puerto Rico power restoration deal after leak of dodgy FEMA contract

DON'T MISS STORIES. FOLLOW RAW STORY!
Puerto Rico’s municipal power company the Puerto Rican Electric Power Authority (PREPA) canceled its deal with Montana-based Whitefish Energy after the group’s “shocking” contract with FEMA leaked to the media.
The Hill reported Sunday that PREPA rejected the $300 million deal between FEMA and Whitefish as corrupt because it contained clauses that assured the firm would be paid whether it completed the deal or not and other egregious violations of trust.
The fledgling energy firm only had two employees when Hurricane Maria struck Puerto Rico dead-on more than a month ago. More than 70 percent of the island’s residents are still without power.
Puerto Rico’s Gov. Ricardo Rossello said on Sunday, “There cannot be any kind of distraction that alters the commitment to restore electrical power as soon as possible in Puerto Rico.”
The contract first came under fire when San Juan Mayor Carmen Yulín Cruz raised the alarm and accused the company of hiding the nature of its contract with the federal government.
Reporter Issues SCARY Warning About the rich asshole’s Upcoming Asia Trip And North Korea (VIDEO)

The Numbers Are In: States, Insurers Literally Say Obamacare Trainwreck Is RICH ASSHOLE’S Fault
This morning, some rich asshole tweeted that health insurance premiums were skyrocketing, and that Democrats own it because Democrats are responsible for the “disaster” that is the Affordable Care Act. But someone on Twitter took it upon himself to crunch the numbers and look up insurers’ reasons for the big hikes going into 2018. It’s not a pretty picture…for some rich asshole.
Premiums were always going to go up – that’s what you get with the system we have and one major reason we need universal or single-payer coverage. But when the rich asshole cut off the subsidies insurers and low-income Americans counted on, he threw the system into chaos—which insurers did warn us about—and now we’re facing numbers like this:
NATIONALLY: Unsubsidized rate hikes WITHOUT Trump #ACASabotage: ~12%; PARTIAL sabotage: ~16%; FULL sabotage: ~29.5%: acasignups.net/17/10/27/and-i…
Individually, each state is seeing its own rate hikes of varying percentages, but a number of them cite the rich asshole’s sabotage as a big reason why they’re raising rates as high as they are. Washington State is among those seeing hefty increases as it is, but the rich asshole’s sabotage is making that far more painful than it needs to be:
WASHINGTON STATE: Unsubsidized rate hikes WITHOUT Trump #ACASabotage: 26.4%; WITH #ACASabotage: 36.4%: acasignups.net/17/10/26/michi…
They probably also had the strongest rebuke of the rich asshole’s policies, saying this:
But there are others saying similar things:
VIRGINIA: Unsubsidized rate hikes WITHOUT Trump #ACASabotage: 43.4%; WITH #ACASabotage: 57.7%: acasignups.net/17/09/26/virgi…
TENNESSEE: Unsubsidized rate hikes WITHOUT Trump #ACASabotage: 13.5%; WITH #ACASabotage: 28.5%: acasignups.net/17/09/29/tenne…

Yes, you read that correctly: nearly 100% of North Carolina’s rate hikes are due SPECIFICALLY to Trump cutting off #CSRreimbursements: pic.twitter.com/q2R1wU5pOG
NEW MEXICO: Unsubsidized rate hikes WITHOUT Trump #ACASabotage: 15%; WITH #ACASabotage: 30%: acasignups.net/17/10/04/new-m…

His methodology and details are available here.
It’s pretty clear from these numbers that it’s not Democrats who own this trainwreck; it’s the rich asshole. He can tweet all he wants about how it’s anyone’s fault but his, and yet, he’s the one who took executive action to end subsidies for low-income Americans. And Charles isn’t the only one coming up with horrific numbers, either. The Kaiser Family Foundation has done their own analysisand come up with some pretty damning numbers as well.
The worst part is that the markets were starting to stabilize going into this year, which meant premium hikes would likely have slowed for next year, and maybe even started coming down in following years. Instead, they’re now skyrocketing. Polls have also consistently shown growing support for fixing the ACA instead of repealing it. What the rich asshole and his party did was a planned and deliberate political move to harm Obama’s legacy without caring who else they hurt.
These extreme premium hikes are on the rich asshole’s and the GOP’s heads. Even red states say so.
Michael Moore Replies to the rich asshole’s Tweet With An Epic Takedown
President the rich asshole is sweating this weekend, not from playing his usual round of golf, but while waiting for the rumored Russia investigation indictments coming from special prosecutor Robert Mueller on Monday morning. So it makes sense that he’s trying to distract himself and the public with a particularly outrageous flock of tweets.
One of yesterday’s doozies was an erroneous critique of Michael Moore’s limited engagement appearance on Broadway in The Terms of My Surrender, which he characterized as closing early despite the fact that the play ran its entire scheduled run.
It didn’t take long for Michael Moore to respond with a tirade of fact-based tweets:
1) You must have my smash hit of a Broadway show confused with your presidency-- which IS a total bomb and WILL indeed close early. NOT SAD twitter.com/realdonaldtrum…
3) You ARE aware I'm a "B'way star" & I guess this bothers you more. SAD.
5) 38 days after Maria, 3/4 of PR (our fellow Americans) have NO electricity. Yet u are more upset that so many ppl saw my B'way show. SAD.
6) They say Twitter "distracts" you from your presidency. But Twitter IS YOUR PRESIDENCY! It's all you know how to do. #LOSER!
7) And now, for this weekend, I’m your latest distraction from your crimes. Ha! Raucous & joyous crowds every nite on B’way- & u missed out!
9) As announced on May 1st, it was always a "12-WEEK-ONLY" run, due to my commitments to my upcoming primetime TV series & my new movie.
Consider the mike dropped!
Hillary Hilariously Ribs Fox Hosts For Their Insane Obsession With ‘Impeaching’ Her (VIDEO)
Hillary Clinton is not shutting up and going away as some would like her to. Now that she is a private citizen who has zero intention of running for office ever again, the former First Lady, Senator, Secretary of State, and 2016 Democratic Presidential nominee can speak her mind, and she did so in spectacular fashion at a dinner on Saturday night for the Human Rights Campaign. While speaking to the nation’s largest LGBTQIA rights organization, Hillary turned her attentions to Fox News, the network that seems obsessed with her, even though she is a private citizen, and their criminal orange poster boy is the one who is currently squatting in the White House. Hillary said of Fox:
“It does strike me that in the last few days at least, Fox News seems to think that’s where I live, in the White House. Because they spend a disproportionate amount of their time talking about impeaching me.”“So, look, if they want to make a trade, I’d be more than willing. I would have much preferred to have come to the dinner tonight from a slightly closer residence.”
That’s a trade I’d be all for – and millions of other Americans feel the same way. The deeper issue here, though, is that Fox, like the rest of the world, knows that an indictment is coming from Special Counsel Robert Mueller on Monday, and they have no way to spin their way out of this one. So, what do they do instead? Tell their brainwashed viewers that Hillary Clinton is the real criminal here, and that some rich asshole is being witch hunted by the “fake media.” They whip those right-wing nuts up into a frenzy, all so that they can keep them just the way they like them: angry, ignorant, and frightening of boogie men on the left who don’t exist.
Give ’em hell, Hillary. You’ve earned that right.

Twitter Just Banned A Major the rich asshole Ally For Threatening Journalists (SCREENSHOTS)
the rich asshole advisor Roger Stone says a bunch of wacky stuff on Twitter, but he managed to go too far even for a platform that seems to ban more people for condemning hate speech than anything else.
After it was announced that at least one person had been indicted by a grand jury in the Russia probe, Stone went nuts on journalists who reported the information — especially CNN’s Don Lemon.
“There r no credible “fact checks” that clear the Clinton’s on Uranium,” Stone wrote in his typical uneducated manner to Lemon. “Even the people at CNN say i are a buffoon behind you back.”
“You come across on tv as a dull witted arrogant partyboi,” the dull-witted the rich asshole ally added. “You lie constantly and no one who knows you thinks you r bright.”
“Don Lemon must be confronted, humiliated, mocked, and punished,” Stone said. “Dumber than dog shit.”
“Stop lying about the Clinton’s and Uranium you ignorant lying covksucker !!!!” Stone continued. “You fake news you dumb piece of shit.”
Stone also told Charles Blow, “U have no cried you fast talking arrogant fake news piece of shit !”
It’s unclear why Stone has never bothered to learn to spell at above a second-grade level or why he thinks there should be spaces before exclamation marks, but he’ll have plenty of time to think about that and possibly learn to spell because he’s gone from Twitter.
Maybe Stone is just worried that he might be indicted, maybe he’s just furious that the chickens are coming home to roost but at least we don’t have to deal with his bullsh*t anymore.
the rich asshole Goes On Another Twitter Rant; Attacks Broadway Play And Actually Admits He’s Not Presidential
President some rich asshole has taken to Twitter to bash sworn enemy Michael Moore. By his own admission, the rich asshole was “not at all presidential” in attacking the filmmaker over the ending of his Broadway run.
Moore has had a show running on Broadway called “The Terms of My Surrender”. The production was mainly aimed at the rich asshole and left the rich asshole in a triumphant mood when it ended. Taking to Twitter, the president said “While not at all presidential I must point out that the sloppy Michael Moore show on Broadway was a TOTAL BOMB and was forced to close. Sad!”
The liberal filmmaker has been one of the rich asshole’s more vocal opponents and is a regularly featured guest on shows that are anti-the rich asshole. While it is unclear as to the circumstances surrounding the ending of Moore’s production, the rich asshole has decided that it is due to the quality of the show. This is unsurprising as the rich asshole has notoriously thin skin and has taken to Twitter many times over the years in public spats with celebrities (usually liberal ones) that rally against him. It is also fairly common to insist (often without proof) that one of his opponents’ projects had failed.
In his early days as president, it was regularly reported from anonymous sources that his use of Twitter was an issue for White House staff. This appears to have been to have been totally ignored in favor of the rich asshole continuing to use the service in any way he pleases from his own personal account. He’s often used his own personal account to debase political rivals including Kim Jong-Un and it seems that he has no intention of stopping anytime soon.
Twitter trolled the rich asshole over his remarks:
Not much to do while being investigated for securities fraud eh jake?
Is there really any point at all for this tweet? For god's sake Robert Mueller is coming for someone in relation to trump Russia tomorrow and you're tweeting about Michael Moore?
Many will be happy that at least the rich asshole noted that he wasn’t being presidential. On many occasions in the past, it appears to have completely passed him by that he was being unpresidential so some may see an improvement.
Here’s something I bet you didn’t think would happen. Fox News, during the very popular “Fox and Friends” show, actually aired an impeachment ad against some rich asshole.
The idealist in me wants to think that even THEY know how ultra-dangerous this guy is, and they did it on purpose. However, I bet they’ll claim it was an error by an advertiser or whatnot. I feel like Fox pays people to screen their commercials, though, so I’m not above saying Fox secretly hates the rich asshole.
The ad is one being ran by liberal and activist Tom Steyer, who makes no secret of his intense dislike for the rich asshole. The fact it made it all the way, accidentally or not, to Fox News in prime time makes it all the better for one particular reason — the outrage.
As you might have guessed, right wingers are having a case of the Twitterfits about it:
Every time @FoxNews runs that anti @POTUS ad with @TomSteyer I change channels, I refuse to listen to hate by DemoCrat, disgusting! #MAGA
And then there’s the ironically named “Niceguy Mel” who has since deleted his tweet that shows every right-wingers TRUE feelings.

Poor little Fox Snowflakes! A person said literally the same thing that everyone on the entire Fox network was saying about Obama since 2008, but now that it’s about the rich asshole they need to go change their diapers! Boo hoo for you! I hope it runs again, and again, and Cletus T. Baconshotgun, along with all the other 24 hour Fox News viewers is forced to pry himself up out of his crusty sofa to get the remote off the coffee table to switch the channel to something else for 30 seconds every commercial break.
Here is a recording of the Fox and Friends segment cutting to the commercial:
‘No wonder Fox is in cover-up mode’: Internet explodes over revelations that Mueller may begin arrests Monday
Special Prosecutor Robert Mueller and President some rich asshole (Photos: Screen capture and AFP)
DON'T MISS STORIES. FOLLOW RAW STORY!
After CNN reported that special counsel Robert Mueller and a grand jury was filing charges against individuals and seeking to obtain arrest warrants, the internet went nuts.
Immediately, commentators brought up the attempted distraction from the White House for the last several days. Others mocked Fox News host Sean Hannity, who was demanding to know when Hillary Clinton would be indicted. The rest are just glad the beginning of the end has begun.
You can read the best below:

Halloween at the White House. Press kids friendlier than their parents ;-) pic.twitter.com/cmUYJmfcjn
Remember when you tweeted Make Russia Great Again and deleted it @seanhannity ? Sure Mueller does. twitter.com/seanhannity/st…
It takes a special kind of delusion to tweet this at the same time that we learn #Mueller has filed charges in #TrumpRussia. twitter.com/seanhannity/st…
There has been a campaign out of the WH to discredit the Mueller investigation, but now the special counsel may be turning up the heat. twitter.com/CNN/status/924…
When will @HillaryClinton be indicted?
Considering Mueller just issued the first indictment , is it any wonder you're babbling on about Hillary? pic.twitter.com/P1MRPusxFq
If you are innocent @realDonaldTrump you wouldn't need Faux News helping you create a distraction from #TrumpRussia re: Mueller #MAGA
9/ Given Mueller’s ongoing interviews of White House staff, it doesn’t appear that his investigation is wrapping up soon.
