    That would still surprise the out of me, considering the leaks have gone out of their way to try to make Pence look above the fray, and Bannon would want no part of hurting Trump to help Pence. It's Trump or bust for getting his nationalist crap implemented. I think Priebus being the main leaker makes way more sense, as the GOP has to be massively frustrated at not getting their agenda fastracked when they're controlling the house, senate, white house, and supreme court. Plus it would make sense that someone making Pence look squeaky clean would be doing it for the benefit of the party. Maybe the Cuckner stuff is coming from Bannon, but I'd doubt any of the other .
    Hard to tell. Bannon is one of the s miest people I have seen in US Politics, and he imagines himself every bit the Machiavellian schemer.

    I think you have a good point here.

    Though if it really is Bannon singing to the press about Cuckner it would mean Trump would have to be squeaky clean on Russia. If so I'd actually be really impressed, because it would be Bannon pulling the ultimate troll job on the media. Because there is no option B for Bannon: Trump is the candidate he cultivated for implementing his nationalist agenda once a disgraced Palin stepped off the public stage.

    a bunch of twitter nerds filed a case nobody will take seriously. This is less legitimate than the Spurs fan trying to slap a restraining order on Zaza.

    White House orders agencies to ignore Democrats’ oversight requests

    Trump’s aides are trying to shut down the release of information that could be used to attack the president.

    The White House is telling federal agencies to blow off Democratic lawmakers' oversight requests, as Republicans fear the information could be weaponized against President Donald Trump.

    At meetings with top officials for various government departments this spring, Uttam Dhillon, a White House lawyer,

    told agencies not to cooperate with such requests from Democrats,

    according to Republican sources inside and outside the administration

    It appears to be a formalization of a practice that had already taken hold, as

    Democrats have complained that their oversight letters requesting information from agencies have gone unanswered since January,

    and the Trump administration has not yet explained the rationale.


    The declaration amounts to a new level of partisanship in Washington, where the president and his administration already feels besieged by media reports and attacks from Democrats.

    The idea, Republicans said, is to choke off the Democratic congressional minorities from gaining new information that could be used to attack the president.

    now we have Repugs laying autocracy on top of corporatocracy.

    Martial law up next?

    LOL what? Trump is Bannon's dream president. Trump is great at fanning the flames of his voters' anger, he loves a fight, and he's so ing lazy he'll just let Bannon do his work for him. If Trump goes down Bannon becomes a nobody overnight. Bannon needs a Trump presidency so he can transform the GOP from an evangelical conservative party to a right wing nationalist one. This is Bannon's one chance, he'll never get another if Trump goes down in flames.

    Will Trump block Comey testimony? White House does not know yet

    White House officials said on Friday they did not know yet whether President Donald Trump will seek to block former FBI Director James Comey from testifying to Congress next week, a move that could spark a political backlash.

    "I have not spoken to counsel yet. I don't know how they're going to respond," White House spokesman Sean er told reporters.

    Comey was leading a Federal Bureau of Investigation probe into alleged Russian meddling in last year's U.S. presidential election
    and possible collusion by Trump's campaign when the president fired him last month.


    Critics have charged that Trump was seeking to hinder the FBI's investigation by dismissing Comey.

    Presidents can assert executive privilege to prevent government employees from sharing information.

    However, legal experts say it is not clear whether certain conversations between Trump and Comey that the president has talked about publicly would be covered, and

    any effort to block Comey, who is now a private citizen, from testifying could be challenged in court.

    Yeah Trump waived executive privilege once he tweeted about Comey. He can't block .
