Mueller seeks to question Trump about Flynn and Comey departures

 

[gry60]

No this IS new. It is all because of Trump and his terrible tax plan. THAT is what caused this.

- Rusty, prolly

Ackshually, the Consumer protection bureau is in the process of being muzzled by one of Trump's sycophants, which means that sleazy banks can once again **** over the consumer without the threat of expensive lawsuits.

But keep kissing the Koch brothers' minions' asses.

Lmfaoo this dude is still trying to avoid an interview with Mueller and have a legal team write his answers

For an alpha male master negotiator, being unable to face another man is some *****-made ish wouldn't you say? Also for an innocent man, this is some strangely suspicious behavior.

Trump admin must feel the walls closing in

Rusty!!

On the real though even his cultist base has to know that this cheating con-man has committed crimes

Let me remind you that you're talking about the Amway crowd here, the ones being fleeced by the very people who are telling them they will drive Benzes soon.

Tells it like it is, no filter, rapists/murderers/bad hombres, trade reform, Carrier plant, yadda yadda yadda

Oh yea and obviously dude's evangelical family values base doesn't care that this guy with multiple marriages and baby's mamas just had an affair. And that it was with, of all people, a pornstar.

The ish they'd say it it were Barack though, who still was half-white and presented himself like a competent decent man. Imagine it were the black equivalent of Trump, a caricature of extreme inflammatory ish-talking blackness. With the same diet as Papa Don (except the soda choice.)

Instead of being a drive by troll you could have paid attention to my views and I have said this is a serious issue that has been going on for a while and that I believe in using Post Offices as a public option in banking to help poor people have access to low cost banking and low interest short term lending.

I also support strong financial regulations, consumer protections and have been critical of Obama not chosing to nationalize more banks during the financial crisis.

Or you can spew more uninformed nonsense

My guess is you'll pick the nonsense.

This isnt anything new. I worked in retail banking 10 years ago while finishing up college and every day i saw them nickle and diming the poorest customers. Overdraft fees and minimum balance (monthly service) fees were big money makers and part of our branch metrics, and obviously the people paying those fees are not the ones who can afford it. It disgusted me then and it still disgusts me, one of the main reasons i only lasted about 6 months at that job. **** banks.

A friend of mine is in retail banking. A wealthy customer of his was sitting down with him, with his adolescent child, one day. Customers daughter asks her dad "What are overdraft fees?" Dad responds "overdraft fees are what poor people pay."

The world in a nutshell.

"Kimberly-Clark plans to cut up to 5,500 jobs — about 13 percent of its workforce — and get rid of 10 manufacturing plants, releasing a restructuring plan along with its year-end results that showed net sales rose to $18.3 billion, up slightly from 2016."

I've noticed that all of these Bigot™ supporters on social media always wear sunglasses in their profile picture.

It's like the fastest way to identify a Bigot™ supporter.

Or they have a picture of their dog as their profile pic and their pool as their cover photo.

Hopefully they'll trickle down $100 bonuses to those 5,500 people before firing them. You know, to help them pay the bills.

Did Wal-Mart do that to those thousands of workers they fired and didn't even let them know before hand? When is the trickle going to start?

I don't think that description applies to Filipino dudes though

 

[whywesteppin]

Well the one thing I will concede is that the Democrat Party does have problems, but for someone to say they would rather let Republicans handle issues of race and inequality

it's somewhere in their platform @rico

Ever looked at those PHub "favorite categories by state" maps? They do love family in the Bible belt...
