#1 Well, at lease we know where some of the money is going:

FBI Agents Association reports $140K in donations amid Trump criticism

The announcement comes several days after Benjamin Wittes, a journalist and friend of former FBI Director James Comey, tweeted that he donated $1,000 to the organization in retaliation for Trump's Twitter attacks on FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe.

"The President is impugning the integrity of the FBI by attacking two honorable public servants: Jim Baker and Andy McCabe. I just donated $1,000 to the @FBIAgentsAssoc in their names. I urge others to give as well and tweet that you did so to #thanksFBI," Wittes tweeted Saturday.

He was quickly joined by other critics of the president, including MSNBC "Morning Joe" host Joe Scarborough.

#2 ThePresident is impugning the integrity of the FBI

It appears the senior FBI management (and DoJ) impugned itself. Remember Mike Flynn is being prosecuted for lying to the FBI, no similar actions are being taken upon the FBI senior management for lying before Congress.

#4 I am shocked to hear that after Hilly got through with the DNC, the bank accounts were overdrawn, the cards maxed out, and someone stole all the silverware.
Shocked, do you hear?

#5 So how can candidates have a great fundraising year and the DNC is broke?

Isn't the famous Hillary MOU still in place?

#7 So how can candidates have a great fundraising year and the DNC is broke?

People donate directly to their preferred candidates, and none of the candidates share upward to the DNC.

#8 I've been besieged the last couple weeks with: renewing my SRNC charter (I didn't know I had); getting a RNC tree ornament (Don't want one); daily emails to support DJT (by donating to the RNC); Carl De Maio trying to repeal the gas tax (Signed the petition, not paying $ to increase your Q, Carl)
