Sounds to me as though Corker did ask to be SOS and was turned down. But hey, that on the GOP.

He never answered to the question as tho whether or not he asked to be SOS. He never answered

Since he still votes for whatever 45 wants, screw him!! i hope they tear each other apart.

There is another type of sexual harassment or abuse that seldom gets the light of day

It's the type when some women make their way to the top by consensual relationships with the boss over the justified promotions and advancements for women who don't or who say "no." That type of abuse or harassment is just as painful and sometimes more significant, especially for women who are single mothers trying to support a family on their own. They often struggle in the workplace which become hostile if they complain.

They dare not complain, and often the women who consent to relationships with their superiors condescend to those women who may not have the looks or body that attracts the superiors but who very often have the experience and intelligence to rightfully move up the ladder. i don't know what the official name is for this except maybe "favoritism" but I know of one case brought in a Federal agency against the manager and the involved party. I don't know the terms of the settlement but the woman who filed the suit left the agency within six months of filing the suit.

If Trump keeps on with his personal and unsubstantiated attacks against the Clintons,

he will force someone to release the "pee" tapes. Count on it.

Get a load of this. I guess in a few days we will know whether or not this is true?

Unverified but seems to indicate that soldiers orders in Niger were suddenly changed to capture or kill a specific target.

Among other questions, are we now engaged in assassinations all over the world?

That CNN "apple ad" needs to be spread all over the Internet. Why?

Because most Trumpsters won't get it and will ask what it means. They will either have to watch CNN for a few minutes or they will have to ask someone...hopefully someone with some sense. That's when you can tell them what it means and rock their boats.

No matter what, they will have to think about it...or at least a few of them will. Every person is important in this resistance.

I will say it because everyone else seems to be dancing around trying to figure out why GOPers

do not like Flake, McCain, Crocker and a few others who do not suck up to Trump.

It's because the ones who do not speak up feel and believe exactly as Trump portrays himself to be: rank RACIST and Misogyny.

For the firm 30%, it's not about jobs, taxes, trade, patriotism, security, religion, or anything else. Look at the people they hate:
They hate the Clintons with a passion. Why. We remember how Bill Clinton spent his days as governor in Ark. and how he and Hillary came into Washington. They came with purpose to make government look more like America. They came befriending and defending the poor and minorities, especially blacks. Look at the appointments and Federal hires made during Clinton's terms. Hillary was spending too much time defending the children of the poor and minorities and working for women's rights.

Next in line for their hate are those who show some decency, dignity, intelligence, compassion and tolerance. They cloak their true feelings in terms of political differences when they are actually all about being able to undo ALL the Civil Rights progress that was made over the past 50 years.

I started using the "an apple is an apple..." meme is all my FB posts about 45 and his supporters.

It was a big hit because so many asked me what I meant. I explain that it was a CNN ad that addresses several things including the mental derangement of 45 supporters who believe anything and who call the truth "fake news."

Many were surprised because they didn't really get the meaning so i encouraged them to pass it on and explain it to their own friends.

I found out that two of my FB friends were 45 supporters. They had seen the ad but didn't get it. One said it was stupid. The other said it still made no sense. But they now have to think about the message every time they hear some FOX noise.

I think CNN hit a master stroke with that ad and I intend to use it whenever I can in response to Trumpsters. It's a good way to make some of them watch CNN and pull away from FOX long enough to look for the ad. Whenever a few of my RW associates ask what the hell is that apple ad, I tell them to watch CNN to find out.
