Did VP not just say yesterday that something was going to break but the news media was sitting on it?

What did hog say? He said yeah right, they won't do that.

What did I say? It's not what you think they have. That's why they are sitting on it...

And guess what???


It's not what he thought....

The smell of fear just oozes from every little nook and cranny of each of your posts.

Yes, plenty. And they do a darn fine job of keeping the government in check to protect you as you whine like a 3 year old about how unfair they are.

Ok, when's the last time the main stream news exposed something that protected us from the government?

Little bit of a stretch.

Little bit maybe. However, Snowden brought out the info, half the MSM hailed him as a hero, half wanted him drawn and quartered.

Regardless, they brought a serious issue to light. Whether they "protected" us from the government is debatable. But you can't deny they were reporting on it.

Just this thread includes dozens of such.

But since you don't care about that, then the fact they're practically the only thing that elucidates the proposed health care bill to us.

But since you don't care about that, then the fact that they expose the lies of corporations, benefiting off of lobbyists and corrupt government policy.

But since you don't.... Wait a second here!

No, I agree and would guess about 85% of stories are an attempted "Gotcha!" moment. They are not necessarily trying to protect the American people. They are trying to protect sponsor money and viewing base.

Exactly.

Not a damn one of them looked into ACA (they were fawning all over it), not a one ever asked why our Ambassador was in Benghazi, and so on and so on.

But remember, on a motion to dismiss, the court will have to assume these allegations true. A plaintiff is allowed to plead things "on information and belief," after all, and it's more norm than exception at the complaint stage to use public facts to hypothesize larger allegations one believes to be true but cannot at this stage prove. I think, in short, that this case is very likely to survive that motion to dismiss.

And that means the plaintiffs will get discovery.

The pleading is rich—very rich and intentionally so, I suspect—with allegations that will provide for plausible discovery requests against all kinds of actors and on all kinds of subjects. It makes reference to the President's tax returns, for example. It names a large number of individuals, whose depositions plaintiffs might plausibly seek. One of the defendants is the campaign itself, meaning that the campaign's agents, actors, employees, and documents, are all potentially subject to discovery. So if I'm right that the suit eventually survives that initial motion to dismiss, it will immediately become a gold mine for journalists and investigators. And it will present an intense set of headaches for the Trump forces both inside and outside of government. Think Paula Jones, but not about a single act of alleged harassment. Think Paula Jones—only about everything.

So watch this one closely. It'll be a sleeper for a while, but If I were the Trump forces, I'd be very worried about it.

Please, Obsessed, make the UkraineGate thread.

If you don't, I may have to.

That would mean I have given myself a 100 percent chance to have called one of the conspiracies right (one of them has to be correct).

At least now you still have a 50 percent chance to call it right and attach your name to it for all time.
