When the Pyrotechnics Won’t Work Anymore

Its three weeks into the Trump Administration. He’s signed a bunch of Executive Orders and gotten some Nazis on his Cabinet. He lost his attempt at a “Muslim Ban” in the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals. The fact that, in three sentences, I could summarize the results his administration thus far, seems impossible given the absolute chaos that has consumed these three weeks. If fact, it was all smoke and mirrors.

The idea of Comrade Brannon and the boys seems to be if you can’t beat em confuse em. This worked fine during the Presidential Campaign. The media ran around like little dachshunds chasing their tails looking for a story where Trumpkins said there was one and ending up like Good ol Charle Brown; on his back missing that football for the umpteenth time. The democrats were convinced that Hillary would eventually win and sat there filing their nails and watching the uncivil Trump cuss and fuss. Trump would go on to win the Electoral College when most people didn’t even bother to vote thinking that Hillary winning would be the inevitable conclusion. But, a funny thing happened on the White House.
 
Republicans Undo The Terrible Policies Of Pence In Indiana

Vice President Mike Pence’s fellow Republicans took a number of steps Thursday to undo his policies, just weeks after the former governor left Indiana for the White House.

His handpicked successor and former lieutenant governor, Gov. Eric Holcomb, began the day with a news conference where he announced that he was canceling contract negotiations to lease state-owned cellphone towers to an Ohio company.

The Pence administration had struck a tentative deal with the company and promised it would cover the cost of more than $50 million in bicentennial construction projects he initiated.

Holcomb also pardoned Keith Cooper, who was wrongfully convicted of robbery nearly 20 years ago, and declared a disaster emergency for an East Chicago neighborhood where residents have been forced to relocate because of lead contamination.

Pence had declined to pardon Cooper before leaving office, insisting that he exhaust his legal options despite resounding evidence of his innocence.

Pence’s refusal to exonerate the 49-year-old Chicago man came despite a pardon recommendation from the Indiana Parole Board and an online petition urging Pence to clear Cooper’s name that had collected more than 100,000 signatures.

Pence also had rejected a request for a state disaster emergency declaration from the city of East Chicago in December.

His office said at the time a declaration wasn’t needed because federal and state agencies were already addressing the situation.

Maybe all Republicans aren't shit heads?
 
Pardon is Exoneration?

I thought a pardon was forgiveness but not a declaration of innocence. I thought it would take a court to exonerate a wrongfully convicted man.
 
Trump national security staff told to ‘keep papers to a single page with lots of graphics’: report

McFarland has reportedly used her experience as a Fox News veteran to make meetings move more quickly.

“And while Mr. Obama liked policy option papers that were three to six single-spaced pages, council staff members are now being told to keep papers to a single page, with lots of graphics and maps,” according to the paper.

“The president likes maps,” one official reportedly revealed.

"Cartoon's are good too," she added, perhaps? :)
 
I usually don't attack the source of an article, but the SCLC? Really? They make the Clinton Foundation look like The Salvation Army. They're a corrupt, for-profit race baiting organization that's rotten to the core.
 
Who told you that, Alex Jones?

Besides, the original article was in the Daily Mail.

Go fuck off. You're probably listed on a hate crime list somewhere.

:rolleyes:
 
Considering how all the bitter old white men in America are rallying around Trump, they could do with some beating up.

Pro racial hate crime, typical Clinton supporter. :D



Please keep it up.



Find some more elderly and disabled to pick on....it makes you look super heroic and politically righteous!!
 
Mattis issues ultimatum to NATO over defense spending

According to prepared remarks provided to journalists, Mattis said: “America cannot care more for your children’s future security than you do.”

No longer can the American taxpayer carry a disproportionate share of the defense of Western values.— James N. Mattis (@realjimmattis) February 15, 2017

He didn't have to add, "Buy American Arms, Lockheed needs the work!"
 
You know, no country in the world really needs American military protection any more, not even South Korea. So what's the point of NATO anyway?

U.S. Capitol Police records show officers arrested at least 55 people for disrupting Congress last month—that's nearly a five-fold increase in the number of these types of arrests on Capitol Hill as compared to all of last year.

June 23, 2016

House Democrats seized the floor to demand a vote on gun-control measures.They weren't going to leave until they got it.

Democrats essentially forced the House out of session by seizing the floor.Cameras are turned off as a matter of procedure when the House isn't in session.

Plainclothes Capitol Police gathered on the first floor.(Who called them?)Uniformed police are not allowed in the chamber.

Rep. Steve King (R-Iowa) tried to grab the podium Democrats were speaking at.


In 2008 the Republicans took over the House floor.

Democrats went home for five weeks without allowing a vote on offshore drilling.

Republican leadership then moved to adjourn, some Democrats disagreed and chanted, “Work, work, work.”

However, the House declared a recess, which suspended action on the floor. As House Republicans left the chamber, House Democrats refused to leave until an agreement could be reached to end the partial shutdown of the government, which affected 800,000 federal workers.


Throughout the protest, House television cameras were shut off, which is normal procedure during a recess. However, Harold Ford, Sr., of Tennessee went to the press gallery and turned the microphones on again


(All the people that suffered under this Republican decision, suffered needlessly.)

What will happen, the next time the Democrats protest the utter disreguard of the Republican party ?


U.S. House Sergeant at Arms Paul Irving announced some of the improvements at a recent hearing for the U.S. House Committee on Administration, according to NBC, which also obtained committee records that detail the upgrades.


According to the records, officials plan to install an underground alarm system on the perimeter of the Capitol building to help detect after-hours threats and stop people from trespassing on restricting spaces. They also intend to install “new, reinforced windows” to U.S. House office buildings, including the Longworth, Rayburn, and Cannon buildings, in addition to placing K-9 teams near building entrances to lessen the chance of threats reaching indoor checkpoints.

Officials told NBC that the enhancements are being made to “better prevent potential threats” from happening on the Capitol grounds. It’s unclear when the upgrades will be installed.

‘Why should Americans trust you?’: Presser goes off the rails when NBC reporter confronts Trump

“You said today that you had the biggest electoral margin since Ronald Reagan,” Alexander began, reading off a list of several recent previous presidents who had larger margins than Trump.

“Why should Americans trust you,” Alexander asked.

The president insisted he was talking about Republican presidents before saying he was “given” that information.

“I don’t know,” Trump added.

“Why should Americans trust you when you accuse the information they receive as being fake when you’re providing information that’s fake?” Alexander pressed.

“I don’t know,” Trump repeated. “I was given that information.”

"So if your Staff is giving you false information, isn't that a sign of sabotage in your Administration, Dumbass?"

Jeffrey Lord insists Trump presser was ‘relaxed, funny, on point’ — then attacks CNN

President Donald Trump’s Thursday press conference had many people talking. Addressing the latest White House scandal involving former national security advisor Gen. Michael Flynn, Trump said “Russia is fake news” noting later, “the leaks are absolutely real, the news is fake.”

In reality, Trump gave a weapons-grade crazy 77-minute press conference. However, CNN contributor and Trump supporter Jeffrey Lord had a different take on that “meltdown.” Speaking with CNN hosts Jake Tapper and Wolf Blitzer, Lord said, “I think we saw two different press conferences.”

“From my perspective, I thought he was relaxed, he was funny, he was on point. He took the whole issue of the media, and he had a very candid conversation,” Lord said. “This is the kind of conversation that I personally had with him a couple years ago in which he said some version of this same thing that he said today, except he was more specific.”

Lord described the president as “candid, very dedicated to the job, very in command.”

“What about some of the back and forth that he had with reporters? You used to work in the Reagan White House — is that really presidential four weeks into a new term?” Blitzer asked. “I think this is going to be his presidential style,” Lord replied.

Stunned Anderson Cooper hammers Jeffrey Lord: Can Trump do anything ‘that you would ever criticize?’

CNN host Anderson Cooper questioned commentator and Trump supporter Jeffrey Lord on Thursday night over his habit of always coming to the defense of President Donald Trump. The two discussed Trump’s heated press conference during which the president was called out by a reporter from NBC about spreading lies while also referring to the media as “fake news.”

The reporter pointed to Trump lying about his “historic” Electoral College victory — he claimed falsely that his Electoral College win was the largest margin since Ronald Reagan’s.

Lord explained that what happened at Thursday’s presser was the “launch of a new reality television show called ‘Beat the Press,'” to which Cooper asked, “turning the White House into a reality TV show — is that good for the country?” Lord then went off into a tangent about whether or not TV in general is good for country, telling Cooper, “if it’s not, you and I and everybody on the panel, not to mention all the experts are gone-zo.”
