Title: Trump-22
Post by: Chris Kern on March 11, 2018, 10:08:51 am: If you live in the United States, you had better stock up now: I have it on good authority that President Trump is planning to impose heavy duties on film imports in order to restore the glory days of Kodak.

Do you have a credible source for this?

You are new here. The OP is testing the boundaries of the new moderator. Get some popcorn, sit back and learn.

I think he's gonna do the same thing with view cameras. As you say Chris, time to stock up.

Title: Statement by John Brennan on the firing of Andrew McCabe
Post by: Robert Katz on March 17, 2018, 08:43:54 pm: Statement by John Brennan, former Director of the CIA directed to President Trump on the firing of Andrew McCabe:

“When the full extent of your venality, moral turpitude, and political corruption becomes known, you will take your rightful place as a disgraced demagogue in the dustbin of history,” Brennan tweeted Saturday in response to a tweet by President Donald Trump attacking McCabe and former FBI Director James Comey.
You may scapegoat Andy McCabe, but you will not destroy America...America will triumph over you,” Brennan added.

Could not have said it better myself

Statement by John Brennan, former Director of the CIA . . .

“When the full extent of your venality, moral turpitude, and political corruption becomes known . . . "

Venality? Moral turpitude? Political corruption?

Surely, Mr. Brennan must have been referring to someone other than the esteemed president of the United States. David Dennison, I suspect. (See attached.)
