The Guardian just out with a story connecting Trump’s Chief Strategist Steve Bannon, Billionaire Robert Mercer, and the Brexit campaign that is severing England from the EU. This is a frightening, but not surprising, story that adds to a growing list of facts that demonstrate the existence and operation of a shrinking number of geopolitical…<\/p>\n<\/div>

Seems like a good time for a recap of Trump activity. Read to the end because trust me it gets incredibly bad: \u00a0 1] Trump blows Comey kisses, praising him for his help in Trump taking the White House \u00a0 2] Despite continuing questionable(but not negligent or illegal)statements from Comey, Trump says he still has…<\/p>\n<\/div>

In a midday news conference, the President complained about\u00a0“dishonest media”, saying he was coming “directly to the American people” because “many of our nation’s reporters and folks will not tell you the truth.” The President went on to complain that the multitude of reports of turmoil in the White House, and questionable interactions with Russia…<\/p>\n<\/div>

During a mid-week joint news conference with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Trump complained that the leaks were an attempt to “cover up for a terrible loss that the Democrats had”, and that “It\u2019s a criminal act.” Trump has called reports about now-resigned National Security Advisor Flynn’s conversations with Russian officials the work\u00a0of “fake media”,…<\/p>\n<\/div>

House Oversight Chairman Jason Chaffetz on Tuesday said there was no need to investigate former National Security Advisor Flynn’s conversations with Russian officials because the situation was “working itself out.” On Wednesday, Chaffetz sent a letter to the Inspector General of the Department of Justice requesting “an immediate investigation” not into Flynn’s conversations, but into…<\/p>\n<\/div>

Reuters reports on in internal Homeland Security review of the costs and timeline for building a wall on the U.S.\/Mexico border. DHS estimates the cost at over $21B and the project to take between three to four years. Of course, these numbers far exceed the optimistic projections that have been stated up to this point,…<\/p>\n<\/div>

Hillary Clinton had a great night on Tuesday, winning all the biggest states, and splitting Missouri, winning the popular vote and losing by one delegate. The results add up to a statistically insurmountable lead that should carry her all the way to the nomination. I have been saying since Bernie got in that he would…<\/p>\n<\/div>

There truly is a brand of young political idealist — and that\u2019s the nice way of referring to it — which is wielding its vote, or lack thereof, as a weapon to hopefully get Bernie Sanders elected. These are the people who threaten to stay home on election day, so to speak, and who insist…<\/p>\n<\/div>

The problem is that you’re talking to people who sense that something is wrong, are angry about it and want to know where to place the blame. You are giving them a cabal of boogeyman bankers, corporations and allegedly bought politicians to bear the brunt of that resentment. You’re doing this through a fair degree…<\/p>\n<\/div>

A common criticism of Bernie that I and others have made is that there is no chance for him to get his plans through Congress. A common retort I hear from Bernie supporters is ‘well, how would Hillary get her plans passed?’ Leaving aside the overarching fallacy of equivalence that Bernie and Hillary would face…<\/p>\n<\/div>
