5News reports:

President Donald Trump appears to have changed his story about a 2016 meeting at Trump Tower that is pivotal to the special counsel's investigation, tweeting that his son met with a Kremlin-connected lawyer to collect information about his political opponent.

[...] That is a far different explanation than Trump gave 13 months ago, when a statement dictated by the president but released under the name of Donald Trump Jr., read: "We primarily discussed a program about the adoption of Russian children that was active and popular with American families years ago."

    This kinda shit is why the most sensible, peaceful solution to our national divide is just mass execution of republicans.

    Mass execution of democrats would work just as well.

    All that's really left to decide in the U.S. is who will be on which side of the barbed wire fences around the death camps.

      In an era where an openly anti-white hate monger gets employment at the supposed "newspaper of record" -- and they defend their hiring of her -- then no, I will NOT assume that such a statement is merely a joke.

      There are people out there who have openly called for the genocide of white people (George Ciccariello-Maher, at Drexel University). Now you're talking about killing republicans. I don't think you're joking; I think you're trying to hide behind a claim of joking while stating what you really want to happen.

        "White genocide" is a term made up by american nazis because nobody will fuck them [wikipedia.org] so they aren't making enough babies to keep up with the brown babies.

        Its not about killing anyone, its about people like you being so pathetic that you can't get laid.

        No wonder it triggers you.
