    PICTURED: Founder of border wall 'scam' at the White House and its 'foreman' with Donald Trump who claimed he 'didn't know' them – and they sold autographed Don Jr. books to raise funds for 'fraud'
    • DailyMail.com can reveal how triple amputee Brian Kolfage, 38, bragged about scoring a VIP Christmas invite to the White House last year
    • He posted several photos from inside the White House and even tweeted about briefing Trump personally about the We Build The Wall fundraiser
    • The Purple Heart recipient is accused of swindling $350,000 from We Build The Wall despite pledging to 'not take a penny in salary or compensation'
    • Kolfage was arrested for wire fraud and money laundering, along with Steve Bannon, Timothy Shea and Andrew Badolato
    • Another picture uncovered by DailyMail.com shows the president standing beside 'construction boss' Foreman Mike who narrates for We Build The Wall
    • Trump has said that aside from Steve Bannon, 'I didn't know the other people', including Kolfage

    Rachel Maddow, who admitted not having slept last night, made a spectacular Freudian slip, listing all the associate who have been indicted since Trump has been "in prison".

    I have a really hard time listening to Maddow. My wife does sometimes when I'm not controlling the TV when there's no game on

    I heard tonight when she (Maddow, not my wife) was interviewing some reporter who has written a book about trump & Fox. He claimed to regularly talk to people, back channel, at Fox news and had some interesting inside information:

    that being that a big reason Fox is pushing so hard for a trump 2nd term is that management is terrified if trump loses, he and his family, along with backers, will immediately form another right wing cable channel along with other associated media avenues. It will be filled with right wing 'news' and propaganda, conspiracy shit, wild leads, and red meat for the wingnuts & rednecks. That trump and family/friends will want to quickly parlay their notoriety into a money generating media empire....and that will significantly reduce market share for Fox.

    it does seem pretty credible, or at least believable, although I'd wonder if they wouldn't just try and take over Fox

    There's something about Maddow that I cannot tolerate and it's not her content. It's her delivery. And I hate the way she continuously shuffles papers. My wife doesn't watch much news unless I call her into the room to witness something that leaves you agape and not in a good way.

    so if a game is on you control the tv and no game she controls it? Seems like a good trade off...what’s considered a game tho? Just your fav teams?

    They already have Real News Update, which is basically a propaganda piece for his administration.

    mostly. She putters around a lot more than I do, so there usually isn't any conflict

    I'd rather watch Judy Woodruff, Yamiche Alcindor, or Amy Walter. Now there's three pros.
