It failed, I'm shocked.

Considering the facial expressions on these two, I would guess things really didn't go well.

Neither did it go well the first time around.

Trump has the ''I'm going to jail'' face

Nah, that's a "pissed off" glare. You're just reading your own desires into it.

Same old same old. None of this is surprising as most intelligent people knew he was a crock and the Trump supporters will just continue to deny

I really don't care what she says, she's already demonstrated how much value whatever she says should be given.. None.

But the fact that the media and the Democrats are now hanging their hopes to take Trump down speaks volumes.

That's the best they got? A man who has already been convicted of lying to congress, who is trying to get a lighter sentence?

Called it. I'll take my being right bacon now GF

The kind of face you'd expect from a Monarch realizing his MAGA Kingdom is crumbling down. And by the way, Cohen ain't trying to get a lighter sentence with this testimony, he's going to jail like next week. Also considering his credibility is next to none, I don't think he's got any candy out of it, just vengeance.

Still says something about the situation. If the media and the Dems are trying to hang him based on Cohen, it's a pretty safe bet that Mueller's witch hunt has gotten squat on Trump.

And, speaking of Kindergarteners...

Republicans/Conservatives get assaulted or driven out of restaurants, and she's bent out of shape about someone snapping a pic of her eating a hamburger after she's claiming that Americans eat too much meat??

Can I have some cheese with that whine?

You better keep an eye out for those black helicopters.

good to see Republicons supporting a stalinist

I was never enthusiastic about Mueller (long ago I suggested the possibility he may even be covertly working for King Don) so it's wait & see

that said why do you assume the Dems are hanging all their hopes on Cohen?
besides as expected his testimony wasn't exactly revelatory or damning (which is understandable since he wants to stay alive lol)

his MAGA Kingdom is crumbling down

guess what this sort of naive optimism led to in 2016 '_'

Great reporting from Fox News! (again?)

You can't influence MAGA zealots, sadly. Trump could shoot someone on the fifth avenue and get away with it

Better than Huffington, Salon, Vox or any of the other leftie and blatant anti-trump sites, which unfortunately includes most of the mainstream media.

Right, because stalking a congresswoman in a restaurant is good journalism. Can't wait to see the next article on Bernie's breakfast, I bet he eats Wall-street cereals for breakfast every day.

[jelgate]

To be fair, both sides are guilty of stalking political figures at restaurants

You are lucky I always keep bacon in the house.
BTW, you need to burn the front yard again.

The sands are shifting in Israeli politics again. The Attorney General announced that charges will be pressed against Prime Minister Netanyahu in three separate cases for fraud and breach of trust, and one case for bribery. The actual trial won't happen until 2020, but it will certainly affect elections outcome.

Also, someone decided to do a Kavanaugh and accused Benny Gantz, one of the two leaders of the newly formed Blue and White party block which I intend to vote for, of exposing himself to her in a cow shed in the 1970s. The accuser is an American woman who left Israel in 1982. She was supposedly 14 at the time and Gantz was 17. Gantz filed a lawsuit against her to the tune of $140 000.

Shouldn't that be "do a Ford", and as Christine Ford was the name of the first accuser in the Kavanaugh case?
