@MomsDemand: Making 3D gun blueprints available online enables domestic abusers, terrorists, and criminals to print guns in the confines of their homes. Send Sec Pompeo at the State Dept a message.

Day 130 Since Hope Hicks left as Trump’s 4th Communications Director after testifying to a Congressional committee that she had told "white lies" on Trump's behalf.

With Bill Shine, Trump is directing all White House messaging and communication.

One lesson of the many brazen, conspicuous scandals related to President Trump and others in his orbit: The U.S. government has been massively underinvesting in enforcement and prosecution of white-collar crime

Add...
Two weeks after the election, Manafort sent an email recommending banker Stephen Calk to be Secretary of the Army.

Get ready for a nightmare scenario.

It is perfectly possible we will be heading into Kavanaugh's confirmation hearings, in the full knowledge that he may be the deciding vote on whether Trump will sit for a Mueller interview.

Wilbur Ross is accused of stealing $120 million from people he worked with forbes.com/sites/danalexa…
Add...

Hard to see how a "no citizenship for Obamacare users" rule holds up given people were fined for not signing up for insurance & the SC ruled the mandate was a tax penalty, which people could only avoid via proof of insurance, inc. thru Obamacare. nbcnews.com/politics/immig…
