According to Roll Call, by 5 p.m. on October 17, the White House had asked and received information from the Pentagon that indicated “senior White House aides were aware on the day the president made the statement that it was not accurate—but that they should try to make it accurate as soon as possible, given the gathering controversy.”

Well, he’s going to have problems getting that beer. Chapman is banned from Pappy’s; the police and the Alameda DA are aware of the situation.

We are missing more voices like this in the world.
No wonder this kind of voices are being suppressed today, it is a threat to traditional economic systems.

Well, Mr Corker get off your ass and do something about it. Start impeachment proceedings, limit his power, shut him down. Put your money where your mouth is M’fkr.
