3/29/19: If you fill the Swamp with enough alligators, technically they displace all the water, and the place is drained. Stephen Moore, President Trump’s pick to fill a seat on the Federal Reserve Board, is found to owe $75,328.80 to the Internal Revenue Service, based on his tax returns from 2014.
That bit of bad news is topped by a report that in 2012 the Virginia courts ruled that Moore would have to sell his home to satisfy a judgment against him by his ex-wife. At the time, Moore, Trump’s choice to help steer the U.S. economy, owed more than $300,000 in alimony and child support.
Moore, of course, helped design the 2017 Trump tax cuts and
has written a book called Trumponomics.

WE LEARN that the full Mueller report, excluding tables and appendixes, is almost 400 pages long. So AG Barr’s almost-four-page-long “summary” probably left a little detail out.
Manafort didn’t break: A pardon awaits.
As for this hard-working blogger, I must admit I was wrong in my assessment of the possibilities the Russia probe represented.
I said, for example, I’d be willing to bet Don Jr. got indicted; but in fact, it looks like he may only end up being a liar.
I did say I thought evidence for impeachment was insufficient – unless Manafort broke.
Manafort didn’t break.
A pardon awaits!
BLOGGER’S NOTE (7/12/19): Insider
takes the full Mueller report, rewrites it in clearer, less-legalistic language
and illustrates it brilliantly, so people might actually read it.
BLOGGER’S NOTE #2 (12/23/20): Mr. Blogger called it right! The president pardons Manafort, and Roger Stone, with less than a month remaining in his time in office.(See: 6/22/19, for evidence that Sean Hannity was relaying word to Manafort not to cooperate with investigators – because he had “a friend” in the White House.)
In one key moment, Don Jr. and Hope Hicks plan a lie.
