Re: Mueller lied either in that statement or to Barr
That’s Barr spinning again.
Mueller didn’t say “Trump is guilty but we can’t charge him”. He refused to make that determination, leaving it to Congress to decide based on the evidence he provided. Answering “yes” to Barr’s question would undermine that.
As we know many former Federal Prosecutors- who are certainly in a position to know - say that Trump should have been prosecuted on the basis of the evidence in the Mueller report if he were not President.

Trump is a shameless liar
Trump called Meghan Markle “nasty” in an interview with The Sun (a right wing but very downmarket newspaper).
Then he denied it on Twitter, accusing The Sun of making it up.
They had audio recordings of the interview.

Re: My new hero
The guy is a nutter. The “Q” (more often “QAnon”) stuff is crazy nonsense. Faith shouldn’t worry about what we say about Trump supporters. She should be worried about what her fellow Trump supporters say.

By which you really mean “stop refugees trying to legally enter the country”. Of course the US has form in that area:

Re: Can the right handle winning?
What flood? From what I’ve read illegal immigration through the southern border is historically low right now. It’s just Trump playing to his xenophobic (and often racist) base,

Faith doesn’t trust people who tell the truth. She only trusts people who say things she likes.

I think illegal immigration has been growing steadily this year, and has recently reached the highest levels of Trump's presidency.
But you don’t have to go back far to find higher levels still, do you?

Mainstream news has covered the significant increase in 2019.
Yet the graphs show that the “11-year high” reported is less than the average under G W Bush (all monthly figures).

Re: Can the right handle winning?
My point is to put it into context. While figures are high compared to the last ten years there have been much higher figures in the years before that.
The increase is greatly embarrassing to Trump, but it’s the increase rather than the headline figure that is significant at this point.

You mean the Republican Congress. Prior to the last election rage Republicans had a majority in both Houses. Even now they have a majority in the Senate.

Re: Republican Senate: Roadblock to good government
In related news a security researcher discovered that North Carolina’s board of Election placed sensitive data into Amazon’s cloud - and left it publicly visible on the internet. This is not even a default setting - someone had to grant access to “everyone”. At best this is a hideous mistake which should never have been made.
