Holy shit, Shep is on a roll today.
In just 2 minutes Shep dismantles almost every single recent Fox News narrative.

According to two White House officials, Trump has been privately wondering whether Obama is actively working behind the scenes to undermine or undercut his presidency https://t.co/ZcJ5HI4bO8

Old mob proverb: The livestock gets restless just before the big storm…
They put a spy within our ranks. This is the highest more egregious use of government power for political gain in modern history. People need to be held accountable. @realDonaldTrump

I agree, foreign governments should be held accountable if they used leverage over Paul Manafort or Donald Trump Jr. to influence the campaign oh wait you're talking about something else aren't you. https://t.co/ux9kMIph3N

You assholes stole everyone's social media data so you could barrage Wisconsinites with micro-targeted racism. I'm sorry that you also got caught hiring a half dozen Russian spies. https://t.co/BAtGHejG6x

Your campaign manager has been indicted. Your deputy campaign manger is now a felon. Your top foreign policy expert is now a felon. The top levels of your campaign met with Russian agents. Your data firm is now bankrupt & under investigation in multiple countries. Whine on. https://t.co/rKzZ6Yvs0m

Are there “Less dishonest disinformation campaigns”? How less dishonest do they need to be to become information campaigns?

Apparently Melania has tweeted that she is alive and well and living in the White House.

Love the “obama says ‘have I what now’ “ tweet
It’s going to be such an exciting summer !

@SiubhanDuinne: yup. And a single tweet would be totally sufficient proof for a democratic first lady 19 days after she disappeared as well.
Um-hmmm

@debbie: Trump conveniently skipped over that part of Gowdy’s comments, but latched onto the part criticizing Sessions.

They need to go down hard. Hard. Motherfucking, fucking hard. We can’t afford any “our long national nightmare is over,” or “let’s look forward, not back” shit after this is all over. If we don’t put these motherfuckers in jail when this is done, we don’t have any future.

I’m getting pre-annoyed at the Obama didn’t save us! crowd that will be showing up with this new book.
Guys — since when have the police been able to foil every crime before it happens? Yes, it would have been great if Obama had been able to find in the course of 6 months all of this stuff that’s been discovered over the last 18 months, but he didn’t.
So can we please blame the actual criminals for their criminal actions rather than blaming the authorities who failed to stop the crime ahead of time? There is only one person who is responsible for the crimes that Donald Trump has committed: Donald fucking Trump. Period.
KTHXBAI.

@Mnemosyne: They’d rather not because an awful lot of that crowd spent years undermining Dems & pretending that both sides were the same and that elections didn’t matter and neither did actual organization & legislative work. Imagine taking back the very foundation of your fame and media presence. They’d starve because being a contrarian doesn’t pay as well outside of the media bubble.

I’m so sick of this ignorant disgusting pervert complaining about how badly the media has treated him and now the pink-scalped pile of puke wants Bob Iger, who runs ABC, to apologize to him. When has the degenerate Trump ever apologized for anything? He should issue a written apology to the American people for siring Ivanka, Eric and that other worthless waste of oxygen and inflicting their stupidity and vulgarity on this poor planet! Name one other CEO who has had 17 separate women accuse them of sexual harassment and has kept their job? Impeachment is too good for this reptile….

But they are the ones who are guilty. It’s not Obama’s fault that they’re goddamned criminals.

Also, this. The MSM has dedicated years to pretending that the GOP is a functional political party and not a collection of white supremacist lunatics. They can’t drop the pretense now or they blow the whole game.

My God Brad Parscale’s Twitter posts clearly are using the whole psy-op technology they paid so dearly for because every single one enrages me. And they’re clearly pretty much just free boiler plate talking points for the RWNJer’s to use–you’ll see/hear them coming from Trumpers all over.
@Aleta:
Shit like this plus all the completely unnecessary “non-compete” clauses being put into employment contracts today–even for low level employees working in non-sensitive areas–are getting out of control. Until the Feds or the Judiciary outlaw them, states need to do it and soon.

@Quinerly: Oh, these FUCKING people like Roseanne fucking Barr and Donald fucking Trump. The most entitled whiny-ass bitches on this earth. So much for white supremacy – man, every time these people go down, they go down screaming about how black people – any black person, every black person – is to blame. If white people like them are as fucking superior as they claim to be, how is that even possible? “They MADE me be a racist asshole! By the sheer power of their blackity black blackness! It’s NOT FAIR!!”
