I'm kind of oddly fascinated by Tiffany Trump. The other Trump kids (excepting Barron, at least for the moment) are clear pieces of shit. But Tiffany seems to be mostly excluded from their activities. Is that her not wanting to be a part of it, or being excluded? Is it possible that she's actually a decent human being? What does she make of all of this?

Fox News’ Sean Hannity said Wednesday night on “Hannity” that the Justice Department has started recovering some of the missing texts between FBI officials Peter Strzok and Lisa Page, citing DOJ sources.

Federal law enforcement officials had notified congressional committees that a technical glitch affected thousands of FBI cellphones between Dec. 14, 2016 and May 17, 2017. This meant that 5 months’ worth of texts would be missing from Strzok and Page, both of whom are under scrutiny after it was revealed that the former members of special counsel Robert Mueller’s team exchanged anti-Trump texts during the 2016 presidential campaign.

Hannity said sources at the DOJ told him they have begun to recover some of the texts from that time period. Specific content from those texts has not been released.

The missing messages have caused problems for the Justice Department inspector general's office.

I definitely think experienced FBI agents would casually text each other on unsecured devices about an actual secret society and call it a “secret society.” I mean obviously.

Hah, how many days or even hours will pass until the Toddler In Chief changes his mind.

After the job was done, they would come to a meeting expecting to have the work approved and arrangement made for final payment, and Trump would suddenly and inexplicably tear into them with insults and denials and threats to sue.

I mean, he even turned it into a [most-successful of ALL TIME, believe me] television show.

This was his way of intimidating people into accepting less money.

And, and FWIW, the "Cryin' Chuck" insult refers to a time Schumer teared up in public while discussing relatives murdered by the Nazis. No doubt the Alt-Right gets a big kick out of the joke.
