You are right, Chicks. The Mueller team has not leaked one thing this whole time. And I would sure like to know what they know!!

Pruitt reimbursed himself $65,000 from Oklahoma attorney general campaign

Campaign finance laws almost certainty broken. This guy is a real slimeball, just what Don the Con wants in his corrupt administration.

Birds of a feather. Grifters all.

More Pruitt shenanigans, this one made me laugh out loud.

https://www.theatlantic.com/politics...-leaks/559607/

As Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Scott Pruitt faces a seemingly endless stream of scandal, his team is scrambling to divert the spotlight to Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke. And the White House isn’t happy about it.

In the last week, a member of Pruitt’s press team, Michael Abboud, has been shopping negative stories about Zinke to multiple outlets, according to two sources with direct knowledge of the efforts, as well as correspondence reviewed by The Atlantic.

The circular firing squad is well-armed.

Vice president’s physician resigns amid ongoing furor over White House Medical Unit

Quote:
A White House doctor who raised concerns about Ronny L. Jackson, the president’s former physician and scuttled nominee to run the Department of Veterans Affairs, has resigned.

Jennifer Peña, the vice president’s lead doctor, left her position on Friday, according to a White House spokeswoman.
Quote:
Peña clashed repeatedly with Jackson, whose nomination to run VA was abandoned amid allegations of liberally prescribing drugs, drinking on the job and creating a hostile workforce, according to a senior White House official.
Remains to be seen as to why Jennifer Pena left her position; voluntary or forced out.

In light of this and the three recent resignations at the EPA, it seems like honesty and ethics are firing offenses in the Trump administration.

Rudy, currently acting like Trump's best man and chump is off his rocker again.
First he says that letting Trump to speak to Mueller and his team is like walking into a setup perjury, thus implying that the Dotard can never tell the truth.
He is also claiming that if Mueller were to subpoena Trump, he will not have to show up.
Also claims that he is not quite up to speed with Trump's legal entanglements and yet wants to go on every talk show that would have him and make things up as he goes.
Besides, Trump is not going to like that Rudy is getting all the attention. Wonder how long Rudy is going to last considering Trump only wants the best people on his team like Cohen, Scaramucci, Manafort.

Nominee for CIA Chief in Trouble?

"Gina Haspel, President Trump’s nominee to become the next CIA director, sought to withdraw her nomination Friday after some White House officials worried that her role in the interrogation of terrorist suspects could prevent her confirmation by the Senate, according to four senior U.S. officials." WP

More ineptitude from the gang who couldn't shoot straight.

Senator McCain regrets having selected Sarah Palin as his running mate. She’s right up there with Donny’s “Best People”, surprised Donny hasn’t tried to nominate her for some utterly inappropriate position, like Russian Ambassador. She’d fit right in.
