In non-Trump news:

The Bike casino in LA was raided today.

https://www.google.com/amp/www.latimes.com/local/lanow/la-me-ln-federal-raid-bicycle-casino-20170404-story,amp.html

It's interesting because
1. They were raided and taken over by the Feds in the early 90's.
2. The regs have always suspected that something was up, not because of blatantly obvious laundering...but because they can't win at Pai Gow.

They can't handle a limited conflict in the Middle East. Go and take on a refugee crisis that will destroy South Korea's economy.

Something might actually happen. Of course the aggravating factors are that it's been going on for 15+ years, Bilbo got recorded saying some of these things in 2004, there's a bunch of accusers, he got caught lying about the Falklands/Kennedy assassination, and he had the domestic assault/lost custody of his kids last year.

Lets say Norks decided to hit the US. And lets say their missile worked, and lets say the nuke actually detonated (all unlikely, but lets go there). Rather a lot of the US is basically multiple copies of Kansas. I'm English, but I've got relatives there, and the one thing I know for definite about Kansas is that if you dropped anything less than a megaton there, there is a reasonable chance nobody would notice.

Until your cornflakes turned up glowing green six months later.

Wonder if this can lead to a broader "Civil rights protect LGBTQ+SCIDWhatthefuckeveritisuptonow period". Which would end things like these state bathroom bullshit laws.

Sessions can block criminal prosecution. He can't do poo poo for civil suits.


Its more about someone taking :10bux: X a million from corporations enough times until they stop being gigantic cunts. Kinda like how Trump won't face criminal charges for getting 3 people beat at a campaign rally but he very well could lose several million dollars.

This is like the second or third time they've made this exact announcement in a month or so. They won't do poo poo.

They say they won't do anything about Assad, if they are unwilling to deal with him, they won't to jack poo poo about North Korea.

From what I'm seeing, Donnie doesn't want to do poo poo to Best Korea, so he's being blustery because President Xi is coming to town. It's a very-transparent way of basically saying to China 'hey, you can fix this, if you don't we're gonna take action, I swear we're gonna take action, we're really, really gonna take action'.

Which of course won't work, because the world knows Donnie is full of poo poo and China probably couldn't do that much anyways.
