    "Mr. Cummings said that the White House is stonewalling committee requests for documents related to Mr. Flynn’s hiring and firing, including records of his phone calls and correspondence. Mr. Chaffetz, amazingly, described the White House as “cooperative.” Sean Spicer, the White House press secretary, later called the committee’s records requests “outlandish” and “ridiculous.” Which can hardly be called cooperative."

    Could be the first thread pullled toward unraveling.

    I'm guessing the same people who think Trump is going down also think it's a good idea Michelle, Chelsea, Malia, and Sasha each serve eight years as president.

    I read the link. Dean was quoted in the article as saying he was frustrated with the amount of effort that it took to get the Episcopal Church to change policy. He then changed to a church with similar beliefs but a more decentralized governance structure where getting a policy changed would be easily accomplished than in the Episcopalian Church, the Congregationalists. He changed for that reason.

    All will be revealed:

    The Trump administration announced Monday plans to impose duties of up to 24% on most Canadian lumber, charging that lumber companies there are subsidized by the government. Canadian lumber makes up about 30% of the U.S. market.


    The tax is expected to hike the price of lumber used in home building by an average of 6%, according to the National Association of Home Builders, the trade group for the U.S. industry.


    "For builders, it'll increase the cost of construction by about $3,000 on the average home, which unfortunately will be passed on to consumers," said Jerry Howard, CEO of the group.


    New home buyers will pay for that new Canadian lumber tariff

    I have an invasion of Canucks coming my way shortly.

    Be staying here, at MHWHQ.

    They don't quite understand what's going on in the States.

    Over the past few decades I've been able to explain or work through things as they've been, at the time.

    President Trump..Mike Flynn..take your pick..this one's gonna be a long night or three.

    Flynn won't see Labor Day. The Russians will see to that.
