I’m debating whether or not I’d accept an extra 4 weeks of healing time on the arm fracture I sustained a few months ago as a trade for this annoying head cold that is on day 5. Leaning towards the arm.
Colds only last 7 days as per an old wives tale
“When I said ‘No Collusion!’ what I meant was ‘No Collusion by the POTUS (in 2016) or Trump as a private citizen (from January, 2017 onwards).’ No Collusion!”

The WH must be getting insight to what is coming soon.
Interesting that Dear Leader junior had about a 24-hour hiatus from tweeting.

I think the justice department gave them some intel of what is coming soon. He is trying to figure out how to change the narrative as we speak. His BS attorney started the lying spin last night on CNN.

I find it takes 9 days: three days to come down with it; three days to have it; and three days to get rid of it.
I miss my youth.
Oh what a great move by the President to deny the use of our aircraft for Pelosi's overseas trip. Bet her eyes got a little wider when she learned. They need to show up to the table.
Trump should have the SOTU anyway and play a video of Obama, Clinton, Schumer and other democrats calling for a wall / stronger border security in the past.

Do you have an issue with him divulging that she was going to Afghanistan, thereby putting her and the military and other staff that were accompanying her at risk?
He can have the SOTU anywhere he likes, just not in the House.
Also, you are forgetting that Trump had agreed to sign the necessary legislation - that McConnell and the rest of the Republicans and Democrats had negotiated - until Fox News got all up in his face about it. As he himself said - on live TV no less - he owns the shutdown and only he can end it!

The days of the 3 day cold are long gone, with all the crazy viruses and mutations thereof that circulate these days.

I actually don't know if the Afghan part of the trip was meant to be a secret or not.
I am aware that there was some agreement on his part to sign...but can always change his mind for whatever reason.

Travel by politicians and senior officials to areas of conflict is always a secret. I know, I worked in several similar areas over my 30 year diplomatic career. Trump crossed yet another line by revealing that.
And there was not "Some" agreement, there was an agreement or McConnell would never had had the Senate pass the legislation. That's why he won't bring anything to the floor unless Trump agrees in advance to sign it, Trump made him look stupid by changing his mind. Which is of course his prerogative, but his inability to think for himself rather than following the lead of Fox News is what has led to this debacle and many others. Sad!
Thanks, bman, for saving me the distaste of having to respond directly to trump's resident WS booster. And governing by "changing his mind for whatever reason," is exactly what's been going on for 2 years down here. The whatever reason was the disapproval of his TV friends. There is no one left with any wisdom to counsel the orange menace. He'll have to rely on Coulter, Hannity et al. for guidance going forward. God help us.

yea, anecdotal, but my cold this year was one of the worst I've ever gotten.
Bman, PH,
Napa’s gotta be trolling.
Meanwhile, I’m wholly disgusted with Barr. And it looks like he is going to be the next AG. It is almost fortuitous for him that this shutdown is happening. Were it not, I think a lot more attention would be being paid to his deeply disturbing answers to many questions. Including his refusal to commit to releasing the Mueller report.
And Rudy is now openly admitting to collusion (or not denying) and saying but ‘the President didn’t commit a crime’.
Rudy is preparing the endgame for the dumpster. Just more goalpost moving. This latest blathering from Ghouliani leads me to believe that the cabal infesting our WH has a sense of what's on the horizon for them.
I'm with you on Barr, but I'm not too worried about Mueller's report. One way or the other, it'll be seen by a patriot somewhere and will see the light of day.

Can't believe that our resident Orangeman booster watches so much Fox news that he can't see straight, or can use the intellect that God gave him.
Thanks Bman for the comment on secret trips
