  1. Time for a true patriot to bleed. Say “enough” and take the consequences.

  2. Will he have a XXXXXL diaper with him, or will be able to get it onto Baby Huey before the briefing?

  3. How the fuck does the “pro-business” Pissident expect us to get any work done? Productivity levels are plummeting.

  4. What the fuck is McMaster going to say that can pull these very scorched, to the point of carbonized, chestnuts out of the fire? TASS is bragging about it. Bet he doesn’t take questions.

    Tass, a news agency owned by the Russian government, reported on Tuesday that President Donald Trump likely passed highly classified information to Russia’s Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov and Ambassador to the U.S. Sergey Kislyak.
    In a Russian-language report on Tuesday that pointed to The Washington Post‘s original reporting, Tass said that Trump talked “in detail about the new threat posed by the [Islamic State], involving the use of laptops on flights.”
    “Trump said the terrorists may carry out some attacks, and explained what kind of damage they can cause,” the Tass report explained. “He also called the city on the territory controlled by the group where the partner of the US on the exchange of intelligence discovered a new threat.”
