‘There’s a treasure trove’ of unseen additional evidence implicating AG Bill Barr: Watch Lev Parnas on MSNBC

Lev drops a Kremlin on the Trump Chumps!

Indicted Rudy Giuliani associate Lev Parnas gave yet another bombshell interview on “The Rachel Maddow Show” on Friday evening.

Maddow was out to attend a funeral, so MSNBC chief legal correspondent Ari Melber interviewed Parnas and his attorney, Joseph Bondy.

On Friday, Bondy sent a letter to Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY), which said Parnas could implicate a number of leading Republicans, including President Donald Trump, Vice President Mike Pompeo, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, Attorney General Bill Barr, former Energy Secretary Rick Perry, Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC), Rep. Devin Nunes (R-CA) and former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani.

Says he has the documents too!

Rick Wilson promises anti-Trump group is about to launch a ‘pretty frigging nasty’ campaign to oust the president

Appearing on the HBO “Real Time” Overtime segment, Republican consultant Rick Wilson promised his anti-Donald Trump group, the Lincoln Project, is set to do everything thing they can to oust Donald Trump and his Congressional enablers out of office in 2020 with, in his words, a “pretty frigging nasty” blitz of ads.

Asked by host Bill Maher if his group will be endorsing a Democrat or another Republican for president, the acerbic Wilson said that is not their plan and that they will instead focus on hammering Donald Trump and vulnerable Republican lawmakers who defend him.

But, his emails!

https://.amp.cnn.com/cnn/2020/02/01...-aid-emails-omb-justice-department/index.html

The Department of Justice revealed in a court filing late Friday that it has two dozen emails related to the President Donald Trump's involvement in the withholding of millions in security assistance to Ukraine -- a disclosure that came just hours after the Senate voted against subpoenaing additional documents and witnesses in Trump's impeachment trial, paving the way for his acquittal.

The filing, released near midnight Friday, marks the first official acknowledgment from the Trump administration that emails about the President's thinking related to the aid exist, and that he was directly involved in asking about and deciding on the aid as early as June. The administration is still blocking those emails from the public and has successfully kept them from Congress.

‘The state of the union is upside down and inside out’: Maureen Dowd rips Trump and McConnell in the NYT

President Donald Trump and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) were labeled as the ‘diabolical duo’ in a scorching New York Times column by Maureen Dowd.

“During a meeting with Donald Trump at Trump Tower in June of 2016, with the opéra bouffe builder improbably heading toward the nomination despite a skeletal campaign crew on a floor below, I asked when he would pivot,” she began. “He crossed his arms, pursed his lips and shook his head — a child refusing vegetables.”

She gave her own view on where America stands as Trump prepares to deliver his State of the Union speech on Tuesday.

“The state of the union is upside down and inside out and sauerkraut. Trump has changed literally everything in the last three years, transforming and coarsening the game. On Friday night, he became, arguably, the most brutishly powerful Republican of all time. Never has a leader had such a stranglehold on his party, subsuming it with one gulp,” she explained.

‘Vapid propaganda’: Fox Sports faces fan backlash after Sean Hannity segment ‘ruins’ Super Bowl

Ahead of the Superbowl Sunday, President Donald Trump sat down with Fox News for what some are calling a propaganda interview filled with lies.

Aside from Trump saying he stopped the coronavirus, his interview was littered with lies, Twitter users said. And it was the last thing they wanted to see before the big game.

Many sports fans were frustrated with the fact that their sports was being polluted with politics on a day that is supposed to be about anything but politics.

Glad I missed it.

Americans paid $3.4 million for Trump to hold a Florida Super Bowl party

The figure comes from the GAO’s report on each of Trump’s trips to Mar-a-Lago, which runs taxpayers about $3.4 million just for the travel, advance and security required. There are substantial costs to secure the club because it has water access.

It marked Trump’s 246th day on the golf course out of 1,108 days Trump has been in office. It means he’s spent 22 percent of his time in office golfing.

WATCH: Nancy Pelosi rips up Trump’s State of the Union speech with him standing right in front of her

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) seemed unimpressed by President Donald Trump’s State of the Union Address on Tuesday.

After the speech was over, Pelosi tore up what appeared to be a copy of the speech with the president standing right in front of her.

The two leaders also declined to shake hands as Pelosi announced the president to the congress. Pelosi also omitted the words “high privilege and distinct honor,” which are often used when referring to the president.

Democrats shout down Trump’s demand to pass a prescription drug bill — and remind him they already have

One of the key policy objectives President Donald Trump demanded of Congress at his third State of the Union Address was to pass prescription drug price reform.

There was just one problem: Democrats already have a bill to do exactly that, and the president and Senate Republicans have refused to take it up. Indeed, McConnell appears poised to block even the bipartisan alternative to the Democratic bill coauthored by fellow Senate Republican Chuck Grassley.

Democrats instantly seized on this hypocrisy, chanting “H.R. 3!” after Trump called for action on prescription drugs.

Are Moscow Mitch and Trumpski at odds on the Drug bill?

Speaker Nancy Pelosi revealed why she tore up President Donald Trump’s State of the Union address during his speech.

“I tore it up,” Pelosi replied.

“It was the courteous thing to do,” she explained.

“It was the courteous thing to do considering the alternative,” she added. “It was such a dirty speech.”

Well she couldn't just pissed in his ear?

And Now the Crazy Begins!

Trump just had a weapons-grade crazy post-impeachment tantrum — here are the most insane moments

President Donald Trump on Thursday held an hour-long address to the American people in which he attacked his political opponents and shouted expletives while Republican lawmakers cheered him on.

The president’s angry tirade included attacks on House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) and Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT), and also featured some bizarre off-the-cuff ramblings about his Republican allies.

Giuliani and other Trump allies are already cooking up new schemes after impeachment acquittal

Rudy Giuliani and some of President Donald Trump’s other lieutenants are already cooking up new schemes, now that his impeachment trial ended with a Republican acquittal.

Some GOP senators — including Maine’s Susan Collins — have justified their vote by insisting the president had learned his lesson, but Trump explicitly contradicted them by claiming he’d done nothing wrong, and his attorney is moving forward with new plots against Joe Biden, reported The Daily Beast.

Donnie decided, "No more Mr. Nice Guy!" Suesan is wrong, Trump has learned nothing!

‘That wasn’t a state of the union — it was a state of mind’: Pelosi speculates Trump appeared ‘sedated’

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) speculated that President Donald Trump seemed “sedated” during his State of the Union address on Tuesday.

Pelosi said that his address seemed more like a speech about his personal “state of mind” rather than a “state of the union”

“I say to my members all the time there’s no such thing as personal animosity,” Pelosi said. “There are eternal friendships but you never know on what cause you may come together with somebody you may have perceived as your foe right now. Everybody is a possible ally in whatever comes next. They want us always to remember we were one and they, our founders, had their differences, as do we. I extended a hand of friendship to him, to welcome him as the president of the United States, to the people’s House. It was also an act of kindness because he looked to me like he was a little sedated. He looked that way last year, too. He didn’t want to shake hands.”

Congress needs to ‘make it rain subpoenas’ to find out how many Trump investigations Bill Barr has squashed: Ex-prosecutor

On Thursday, former federal prosecutor Glenn Kirschner tweeted that the House of Representatives should “make it rain subpoenas” — and attach the threat of jail time to officials who refuse to honor them — in order to find out whether Attorney General William Barr has quashed any Justice Department investigations into President Donald Trump.

His tweet came in response to author Don Winslow, who asserts that sources in the DOJ tell him Barr has shut down six investigations into “Trump and Trump related companies and surrogates,” and prevented two other investigations from beginning.

Maybe they could look into the Chucklefucks and how that all started?

‘We’re in the heads-on-pikes phase’: Ex-White House official warns unrepentant Trump is about to wage war on his enemies

In a pairing of tweets on Thursday night, former White House ethics czar Walter Schaub claimed the American public is about to see the worst of Donald Trump now that the Republican Party gave him a pass in a Senate impeachment trial.

According to Shaub, Trump will be spending every possible moment going after those he perceives as his enemies saying “We’re in the heads-on-pikes phase of burgeoning authoritarianism.”
