VP Mike Pence is coming under fire for staying at a Trump Golf club in Ireland, 180 miles away from his government meetings, after a strong ‘suggestion’ from Trump. Pence’s stay comes days after reports of Barr spending $30,000 on a holiday party hosted at Trump’s D.C. hotel. Richard Painter, former republican White House ethics lawyer, slams Trump for ‘illegal’ and ‘immoral and illogical’ actions, arguing his administration is out to ‘milk the taxpayer right, left and center.’

Trump’s AG And VP Exposed For Routing Money Into Trump Hotels | The Beat With Ari Melber | MSNBC
Pence is Trump’s Stepford wife.
@Bruce Swearingen Trump,Boss,,,Kellyann Conway,,,,Underboss,,,Barr,,,,Consel,,, Ivanka,,,,Capo,,,Mcconnel L.T…Pence and the rest of the Republican Senate arrand boys that sound right.
Argh! It’s 12:13pm on Sept 4th and the likes are at 666! Creepy.
That’s an ugly though.
real ‘ bedbugs’ in #45 resorts, the ‘G6″ should decline simply for that reason alone, !!!, but #45 and vp pence and his entire cabinet are ‘ bedbugs’ !!!
It will be G5 before they all go to his property… They will kick us out over humanitarian reasons on our border before going to florida in huricane season to get bed bugs.
Rite. Blood suckers
I for one hope they let him do it then just not show up like he did for the climate summit at the last G6. Or let him do it then they all just go to wherever obama is and have one with him.
Ronald Daugherty Hello
Always making a buck, by hook or crook.
I dont see no hook. Its crooks all the way
@Patrick Kok speak much? Ladies and gentleman…. The director of tRump University School of Policy and Finance.
…and losing those bucks, by crook.
Trump is testing again to see how the country would respond to his non-sense. The congress must not let this con and his sycophants get away with breaking the law.
@Projectheureka Not to mention that Pelosi is covering for her 1% donor class . . . . who love Trump, we will get no action from her.
Integrity S the Congress is weak .
Because Congress isn’t corrupt at all 🤷🏻♂️
integrity!! every single one of us needs to call nancy and put H U G E pressure on her to start the impeachment inquiry! i’m so sick of my party ignoring what we pay them to do!!
Do NOT forget Moscow Mitch !!!!!
When is America going stop it’s own insanity from continuing?
Never, as long as deplorables will be the majority in this country.
Americans get some education !!!
How does insanity recognise itself
Rune Hove-Kreutzfeldt americans have no balls, prove me wrong, or keep enjoying the orange sphinter !
Rune, unfortunately half of our population is below average.
Pence might be the biggest trump jabroni around. Hannity might get a little jealous.
I agree Danny. I also like your choice of the word jabroni.
therascalking I’m from New Zealand I don’t know what jabroni is, its Italian right, but what does it mean?
science wins Richard seems like a stand up guy. I’ve seen him before he talks sense.

@The Real Ando It’s a pro wrestling term. The Iron Sheik used it first, a person who gets abused, humiliated, losses for the benefit of another person.
This is expected of Trump Inc. Lock him up for the love of GOD!
@FordClit TourAss Uhhhhhhh for being a Russian puppet while being the President of the U.S.A…..duh bro
Go back to stormfront kiddo.
AMEN!!!!!

I am so sick of watching this get so cartoonishly worse every night. The corruption is not even hidden anymore. We can not let this numbing become the normal.
Exactly. We have to do all we can to vote this criminal out of office.
“Trouble With Normal is it Always Gets Worst” Bruce C.- run the country/company “company/country” enriching himself. AG is supposed to support the laws and ethics. Where is the outrage amongst GOP? Vote GOP out!
@japango1 effen sick sad while the rich country binges on expensive goods…

What ever happened to the Emolument clause.
Trump is inpatient and he is cash poor.
He can’t wait until he gets out of the White House to collect like the Clintons and Obama, he needs a cash infusion into his real estate holdings.
He is probably a billion dollars in the red.
He is desperate, he owes more than he owns, and SDNY has his tax records, and they are trying to keep them hidden until he gets the Nomination, but they will be leaked
He isn’t even hiding his corruption.
I bet he packs his family and skips the Inauguration and takes Air Force 1 to Israel to seek asylum, and Bibi will grant it.
Trump is a coward.
He should commit suicide and save his family, but he wont.
@enigmaticmisfit Ain’t that the truth… I recently had a Trump supporter _legitimately_ try to argue that (regarding the recent scandal about trying to kick out severely ill migrant kids who are here with medical deferment visas because their need for care in the US is a life or death situation) those boilerplate letters telling these families to leave within 33 days or be deported, were actually sent by _ANTIFA_ in order to make Trump & the administration look bad. Just… They’re so in denial it’s like they live on another _planet,_ then they try to call _us_ fascists.
Trump and friends are raping it publicly in front of the entire nation.
it’s illegal, it’s immoral and it’s unconstitutional …so what’s going to be done? NOTHING

@TheMetalDen hey man,the grown ups are talking. go take your pizzagate toys and play quietly in the next room.
EXACTLY smh
Voice of Unreason…
100% of all polls show him 10 points behind Biden in the Battle Ground States…
TRUMPY HAS BEEN LINING HIS POCKETS WITH TAX PAYERS MONEY SINCE DAY 1…..IT COST MILLIONS OF DOLLARS EVERYTIME THAT HE STAYS AT ANY OF HIS GOLF COURSES INCLUDING MAR-A-LAGO….HUNDERDS OF MILLIONS IN HIS POCKETS….
Somehow his stupid sheep think this is ok…no wonder he loves the uneducated
Not only is Trump and his administration wasting taxpayers money, they are also profiting from it.
@SmarterThenu Meanashell I think he doesn’t take a salary cos
A) It looks good
B)His income would be taxed.
What Mr. Barr is effectively demonstrating is he has no intention of supporting and defending the law & Constitution, and now openly invites others to follow his lead of currying favor with the president through
illegal contributions to him personally.
Barr is scary!
Staying at Trump’s hotel is NOT a crime. You are projecting the corrupt money grubbing of Democrats, e.g. the Clinton Foundation.
@Anakin Skywalker – You besmirch the Skywalker name by being so stupid or worse, being a partisan liar. Both sides are corrupt, to the gallows with all of them.
@Anakin Skywalker He’s the Attorney General for trump. There for it is illegal. Quit watching Faux News.
Pence is Pinocchio. Wooden, fake, and has daddy issues.
Aj Meyers : More to the point, which one is the chaperone? 🤭
@PAGAN ROXX I don’t know. Seems to me he wears Jesus like it’s fashion. He talks as if he’s a believer, but his actions are antithetical. So either he’s pretending to be a believer because he thinks it will help him, or he’s like a singer who’s learned all the lyrics but has no idea what they actually mean.
He’s also homophobic af.
He’s like a standee that they forgot
To throw out.
All illegal, but it is becoming normal. When will it end? very soon, I hope
NOT WITH THIS CONGRESS IT WONT. BUT WE, THE AMERICAN PEOPLE, CAN DO SOMETHING. WE CAN ALL RUN, NOT WALK, BUT RUN TO THE VOTING POLE AND VOTE AS MANY OUT AS WE CAN.
cherie…it will end when we VOTE him out in 2020! we have to…we don’t have any other choice…unless he dies of a brain disease from syphillis or heart attack! but he is too EVIL to die…lol
@Donna Dayle Amen!
@Donna Dayle – I do not want him to die. I want him to spend a VERY LOOONG TIME in a federal prison thinking about the fact that his spawn are also in prison and that his entire “empire” was taken to pay for fraud in his taxes in several countries.
This administration IS the most corrupt and despicable I have ever seen!! Vote them out of office!!
Hahahahahaha. Dude, voting only exists to give you a false sense of control. All of this has been decided by the people behind the curtain. You really think they’d let us have a say?
Then you must have been born yesterday.
@Jeremy Backup For there to be history we have to first survive .
@Lexy Swope – Right on target. The 1% are not interested in our survival, they intend to burn the surface of the planet and us along with it.
Jeremy Backup This might be the new normal. Like other countries, the third worldization of the US.
He’s running America like he’s ran his businesses, into the Ground.
Exactly! The self-proclaimed “King of Debt” is running up the USA debt to ridiculous levels in part by giving the 1% and corporations big tax breaks. Guess who pays for this? The 99%. Shameful the debt we are handing off to future generations due to unbridled sociopathic greed promoted by “conservative” Republicans starting in Reagan presidency. Plus the destruction to the planet. The rampant ignorance is mind boggling.
@The Insane Shecklador He’ll need that $$ for all the attorneys he & his spawn Ivanka, Don jr & Eric will be paying to address the avalanche of crimibal charges coming after Traitor Trump is booted from office in 2020. He really should be impeached now for obstruction of justice.
Like the Mafia.
@FordClit TourAss The Recession is it’s way sweetheart
Welcome back, Mr. Painter. I for one have been missing your insight.
He is great.👍…but what a stoneface he is 😯
morten larsen He had a stroke. I’m sure you knew that? He’s been left with 1side without movement. Stone faced?
@morten larsen he has Hunter Ramsay syndrome which causes Bells Palsey in one side of the face. Similar to a stroke but not as severe which is why he can still articulate reasonably well.
@Georgia sorry I did not know
@Derrick Dawdy 👍 I did not know this.
These people are stealing from the American People in plain sight, and nobody is doing anything about it !!!
Either way pence will have to pay for a hotel so it might as well be a Trump hotel , what’s the big deal ?
@Carlos Carlos I know thats how Russia likes it. But we don’t like it here there is alot wrong with it. Trump was supposed to drain the swamp but he just keeps making it bigger.
@Carlos Carlos The big deal is he has too fly back and forth to the meeting’s and it’s costing taxpayers millions. But being a trump supporter you’re okay with that.
Trisha A. DUH?
Carlos Carlos No schooling easy fooling.
Barr proved that he is dishonest during the Iran Contra scandal. Barr should be disbarred, and put behind bars.
He showed it with his handling of the Mueller report too.
Corruption in full view. The Irish known all about security, Pence is making pathetic excuses.
