The big question remains, will Trump fire Mueller? Here is an article from an independent opinion columnist.
Quote:
Since President Trump revels in the use of nicknames, it is time to warn the nation that it now appears the president, who should be nicknamed "Swamp King Trump," has floated Scott Pruitt, who should be nicknamed "Polluter Pruitt," to replace the attorney general that Trump nicknamed "Mr. Magoo" — Jeff Sessions.
Pruitt would then have the power to fire Robert Mueller, who should simply be referred to as "Citizen Mueller." Trump denies he plans to replace Sessions with Pruitt, but many of his denials have been proven false in the past.
There are two critically important points to be made here. The first is that Swamp King Trump almost certainly intends to fire Citizen Mueller because he is terrified about what Mueller will soon do. The second is that Polluter Pruitt is one of the leading candidates for the dubious honor of being the worst official to serve in any administration in modern American history.

Now that Trump is back to running his own reality presidency, this might very well happen. Question remains, what will the GOP members of the House and the Senate do? I predict nothing, they will close their eyes and ears and wait for the mid term elections. Let the voters do what they cannot or unwilling to do in order to appease the GOP base. Bunch of spineless shameless sissies.
Rosenstein should release the Mueller report to the public and resign and that will make him an American hero.

While the Dotard attempts to smear Obama for Assad's latest transgression, McCain puts the blame squarely where it belongs.

One of President Donald Trump's most frequent attacks on Amazon is accusing the company of not collecting state and local sales taxes, something his own business' online retailer does in just two states.
TrumpStore.com, the Trump Organization's online store, collects sales taxes from purchasers who ship orders to Louisiana and Florida addresses, The Wall Street Journal reported.
Amazon, the e-commerce giant that has found itself in Trump's crosshairs this month, originally collected sales taxes in just five states. But the company has more recently moved to collect sales taxes from consumers in the 45 states, as well as Washington, DC.

So, Amazon collects sales tax in 45 states and DC, whereas Trump's online store collects it in two states?

Former Joint Chiefs chairman worries about generals in Trump's White House
https://www.cnn.com/2018/04/08/polit...ntv/index.html
Mullen said he's been to countries where the generals and admirals are in charge, which some of the public find comforting, and those are not countries Americans would want to grow up in.
"It's much more a strongman's country than it is a democratic, open, free country," he said.
Countries only morons like Whell could love.

'I'M A HOLOCAUST SURVIVOR—TRUMP'S AMERICA FEELS LIKE GERMANY BEFORE NAZIS TOOK OVER'
http://www.newsweek.com/im-holocaust...ok-over-876965
Stephen B. Jacobs has a warning from the past for America today: It’s happening again.
At 79 years old he is among the youngest of the living Holocaust survivors and was born six years after Adolf Hitler came to power in Germany. But Jacobs can remember life in the Nazi concentration camp at Buchenwald; what the Nazis did to him, his family, his friends.
Perhaps more alarming than the far-right getting braver is the seep into mainstream politics of their hate, their talking points, their rhetoric. “It feels like 1929 or 1930 Berlin,” Jacobs speculated, ahead of Holocaust Remembrance Day 2018 on Thursday.
Disgusting pigs like Whell cheer Trump on.

A federal judge on Monday finalized the $25 million settlement between President Trump and former students of the now-defunct Trump University.
U.S. District Judge Gonzalo Curiel approved the settlement roughly a year ago. After a federal appeals court rejected a student's objection to the settlement in February, Curiel finalized the deal on Monday.
New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman said in a statement that “victims of Donald Trump’s fraudulent university will finally receive the relief they deserve.”
“This settlement marked a stunning reversal by President Trump, who for years refused to compensate the victims of his sham university,” Schneiderman said.
