Trump’s refusal to enforce the sanctions against Russia has no excuse. Trying to muddy the waters by throwing out baseless accusations about others in the hopes of distracting from this fact is a tacit admission that there is no defense for his failure to do his job as POTUS.

Try sticking to the facts and current events.

Congress gave him the ability to implement sanctions, not the requirement. They gave him a stick to use as part of diplomacy.

It’s still nothing more than a collection of fabricated fictional falsehoods.

Dian Feinstein is an idiot.

Using her standards, I could claim, “I´ve heard from a source close to DF, that she regularly barbecues aborted babies at her cookouts.”

Hey, known of the above has been proven false. If we search and throw money around, we might actually find someone who will confirm she does just that!

That´s not justice. But apparantly, acceptable by her standards, along with most democrats, provided you´re not talking about them.
