Why does this happen???? The latest had legally bought weapons and legally bought 30 round magazines.....just think if the VA GOP actually passed legislation that would have banned the magazines!!!!!!!! Lives would have been saved but since only 12 were killed.....it is not important enough for GOP ass wipes to try to save real lives instead of denying women's rights!!!!!
Virginia GOP blocked bill to ban sales of large-capacity magazines Each year, Democrats propose multiple gun-control measures. Each year, Republican legislators vote them down.
June 1 at 5:43 PM A Virginia bill designed to ban sales of large-capacity magazines similar to those used by the Virginia Beach gunman died in committee in January on a party-line vote.
The fate of the legislation, SB1748, was so widely expected that the outcome drew virtually no public attention. For more than 20 years, Republicans and a few rural Democrats in the General Assembly have killed almost every measure aimed at restricting gun ownership.
The GOP blocked a major push for gun control after the 2007 Virginia Tech shootings, where 33 people died. They chose instead to respond to that shooting by joining Democrats to enact mental-health reforms.
Although there are signs that public opinion has been shifting in favor of gun control in Virginia, the state has a history of support for gun rights symbolized by the location in Fairfax of the headquarters of the National Rifle Association.
Each year, Democrats propose multiple gun-control measures, such as strengthening background checks, limiting handgun purchases to one per month and allowing localities to regulate guns in public buildings. They call these “common-sense” measures to save lives.
Each year, Republican majorities in one or both chambers of the legislature vote them down, usually in committee. GOP legislators say their goal is never to infringe on people’s Second Amendment rights.
[Republicans in Virginia kill ‘red flag’ bill endorsed by Trump administration.]
“There’s been no tragedy that has gotten the [Republican] majority to think twice and consider reasonable efforts,” said state Sen. Adam P. Ebbin (D-Alexandria), who sponsored SB1748 and is co-chair of the Gun Violence Prevention Caucus. A big reason, he said, is the political influence of gun rights organizations.
Yesterday everyone was acting like Sgt Schultz.....I KNOW NOTHING and today by magic, the truth is slowly coming out!!!!
WASHINGTON – The U.S, Navy acknowledged Saturday it had received a request to shield a U.S. warship bearing the name of former political rival John McCain from President Donald Trump's view during the commander-in-chief's visit to Japan last week – but did not comply.
“A request was made to the U.S. Navy to minimize the visibility of USS John S. McCain, however, all ships remained in their normal configuration during the President’s visit," according to a statement from Rear Adm. Charlie Brown, Chief of Navy Information, that the Pentagon released.
The one-paragraph statement did not mention who made the request and a Pentagon spokesperson did not respond to a request for further information.
In his statement, Brown also said there were "no intentional efforts" to exclude sailors on the McCain from attending the president's address on Memorial day aboard the USS Wasp at Yokosuka Naval Base, south of Tokyo. The McCain is docked there for repairs.
John McCain and Donald Trump
The Wall Street Journal was the first to report that White House officials wanted the guided-missile destroyer to be kept "out of sight" during Trump's visit to Japan, apparently fearful that the president would be upset at having to see the name of the late Arizona senator, a frequent target of the president's anger.
The ship was named after McCain's father and grandfather, both decorated admirals. The Navy added the name of Sen. McCain, a prisoner of war in Vietnam who emerged from captivity a war hero, to the ship in 2018, according to the Journal.
Trump on Thursday said he had no knowledge of the request to keep the ship from view, saying, "I would never do a thing like that." He described the aides that made the request as "well meaning."
It’s no secret that Mr. Trump’s ego is fragile. At the start of his tenure, he was so upset that his inauguration crowd had been smaller than Barack Obama’s that he had his press secretary lie about it and prompted the park service to edit photos to make his crowd look larger. Similarly, unable to cope with having lost the popular vote, the president formed an “election integrity” commission to try to prove that the election had been riddled with fraud on behalf of Hillary Clinton. It found none and was dissolved.
Two years on, the situation has become more absurd. Staff members have so internalized their boss’s vanities and petty grudges that they scurry to avoid anything that might offend his sense of self. The McCain episode may sound largely harmless, even if it showed further politicization of the military. This was, after all, the same event at which some service members were photographed wearing patches with an image of the president surrounded by the words “Make Aircrew Great Again” — a play on Mr. Trump’s MAGA campaign slogan. So it may be too much to expect anyone in this administration to think twice about such niceties.
But other instances of the president’s fragility are deadly serious. In late April, it came to light that the acting White House chief of staff, Mick Mulvaney, had warned Kirstjen Nielsen, then the homeland security secretary, against raising the issue of Russia’s attempts to interfere in American elections in front of the president. Ms. Nielsen was desperate to get the White House to show leadership and focus public attention on this critical threat. But Mr. Mulvaney told her that the entire issue was tangled up in Mr. Trump’s brain with questions about the legitimacy of his 2016 victory.

And so the integrity of the American electoral system is being neglected because White House aides don’t want to risk hurting Mr. Trump’s feelings. Who knows what other important issues are being similarly compromised? One has to wonder whether, somewhere in the White House computer system, there is a running list of topics that cannot be broached, lest they trigger the volatile Mr. Trump.
About 4 in 10 Americans now say that President Trump should be impeached and removed from office, according to a CNN poll conducted by SSRS.
The survey, which was released early Sunday, found that 41 percent of Americans said the president should be impeached based on what they have read or heard. The figure represents a 4 percentage point increase from a CNN poll released last month.
A majority of Americans, 54 percent, said they do not feel Trump should be impeached.
A majority of Americans, 54 percent, said they do not feel Trump should be impeached.
The increased percentage favoring impeachment largely stems from growing Democratic support for it. Seventy-six percent of Democratic respondents said they support impeaching Trump, an 8 percentage point increase from April.
So basically the only thing that has changed is highly partisan Democrats who hate the bad orange man and have no brains that work anymore.
Independents are still against impeachment by almost two to one, while Republicans are 93%-6% against it.
White House chief of staff Mick Mulvaney said that it wasn't "unreasonable" for a Trump administration staffer to ask the Navy to make sure the USS John McCain was out of sight during President Trump's visit to Japan: "The president's feelings toward the former senator are well known."
Nobody knew anything about Watergate before the investigations started.
The Russian Collusion delusion investigations have been going on since the summer of 2016, and the Public has been well aware of them for over two years.
Oh, and Nixon was actually guilty of both the underlying crime, witness tampering, lying under oath and a whole slew of things. But hey, what's guilt or innocence have to do with anything, right?
After all its no longer the 1970s, it's 2019 when facts don't matter.
Bottom line:
There literally isn't anything new that another round of investigations is going to accomplish. Nobody is going to learn anything new, and if Congress truly believes that a fourth investigation into this by Congress is going to "inform" those who otherwise have not paid attention, then they should all be taken out behind the barn.
The number of Americans who believe investigations should continue are approximately the same number as those who want to see Trump impeached either way. They want to continue to investigate to keep impeachment on the table. A majority wants to just move on. So everyone has pretty much made up their minds at this point and there is no "new" information that is going to sway anyone.
Mueller's attempt the other day was the last best gasp of hope for the anti-Trump crazies. The wad has been shot on Russia, 2016, and impeachment.
So basically the only thing that has changed is highly partisan
The only thing that changed is the % who want him impeached has risen by 4 points in a month....imagine if Mueller actually testifies in congress!!!!!! Even though his presser was rather boring.....he did not exonerate the asshole in chief of crimes that many who follow right wing news all thought he was forgiven by the report and Barr.....that could not be further from the truth other than some of your posts, Lil Scotty....
The lying never stops and you sycophants keep sucking.....such a waste of natural resources!!!!
Trump says in recorded interview that Duchess Meghan was ‘nasty’ about him, then tweets: I never called Meghan Markle ‘nasty’ The president's choice of words echoed his attacks on his 2016 presidential rival Hillary Clinton...
Mueller can only repeat the same thing over and over and over so many times till nobody cares anymore.
I guess eight percent of Democrats still cared (or they otherwise reenergized the dying idiocy of impeachment).
Testifying before Congress at this point will only make Mueller look dumber than he already does. He will not change what he stated in his report, unless he wants to appear like a complete dishonest moron. So he repeats himself and will have to explain why he thought it was appropriate for the first time in DOJ history decide to start an investigation with an intention of "exonerating or not exonerating" someone.
Quite possibly the dumbest idea of an investigation in the 240 plus years of our Republic.
Major hurricanes punished the Sunshine State the past three seasons. Those three monstrous storms accounted for more than 200 deaths and $85 billion in damages.
Is this an omen of the future?
Climate scientists fear man-made global warming will spawn stronger hurricanes, packing heavier rainfall, higher storm surge and greater winds.
"There’s plenty of evidence now in the literature that indicates these big weather events – these mesoscale systems in the Midwest and tropical cyclones – are all becoming wetter. And that is an issue," said Steven Lazarus, a Florida Institute of Technology ocean engineering and marine sciences professor.
"They’re dumping more rain. And they will continue to do so," Lazarus said.
• Sea level rise should cause higher storm surge levels. “That’s setting the stage for higher damage from any given storm," said Tom Knutson, a NOAA research meteorologist.
• Tropical cyclones will likely generate more rainfall. NOAA computer models project rainfall rate increases of 10% to 15% within about a 60 mile radius if global temperatures increase 2 degrees Celsius.
He can say anything he likes and is staying out of the politics....which I understand....like you keep repeating that gays have no rights and GW is a hoax does not make them true or you correct....Your defense of the indefensible is most amusing....BTW...you should be as dumb as Mueller and as much of a Marine as he is.....keep blabbing....it is what you do best!!!!! BWAAAAAAA!!!!
Puppetry has destroyed your mind Scott..sad. What happened to the party of Reagan?
espite audio of remark "No, I didn't know that she was nasty," Trump said in an interview with The Sun when asked about Markle's criticism of his candidacy in 2016.
By Allan Smith President Donald Trump is insisting he did not call British royal Meghan Markle "nasty" during an interview with a British publication.
"I never called Meghan Markle 'nasty,'" Trump tweeted Sunday morning. "Made up by the Fake News Media, and they got caught cold! Will @CNN, @nytimes and others apologize? Doubt it!"
But an audio recording of Trump's interview with The Sun — which was tweeted out by a Trump campaign account — tells a different story.
Official Trump War Room ✔ @TrumpWarRoom Fake News CNN is at it again, falsely claiming President Trump called Meghan Markle "nasty.
The president is first questioned about the America former actress' past comments calling Trump "misogynistic" and "divisive" during the 2016 campaign and saying she might move to Canada if Trump was elected.
"She said she would move to Canada if you got elected. It turned out she moved to Britain," the interviewer says to Trump, who is visiting the United Kingdom this week. "Well, that'd be good," Trump responded. "There are a lot of people moving here. So, what can I say? No, I didn't know that she was nasty."
Why do you support a man who has cheated on all three wives? You should have the moral rectitude to censure Trump for well-documented crimes and objection of justice! What has happened to the Republican party of Ronald Reagan?
Two years ago today, I received a lifesaving liver transplant. My 2 year Liverversity!
I had a condition, Polycystic Liver Disease, and minor cerrocis. I was in end stage liver disease. Very few people get a liver transplant with Polycystic Liver Disease as the major problem. My kidneys were falling too. The liver weighed about 30lbs. The surgeon said that it broke his back!
My doctors knew that I am a recovering alcoholic. I quit drinking on June 25th of 2012. If I had not stopped drinking and attended Alcoholic Anonymous meetings, I would never have been blessed. I have read here from other Alcoholics, and family members of other drunks. If you take the 12 steps seriously, and remain sober, you may get the surgery done before you die.
The night before I called a department nurse and she said that I am the primary patient to receive a liver they had received. I had to get there by early morning the next day, June 2nd.
I was alone. I was not capable of driving myself, and later on the evening, my wife and son in law, they drove me to UCLA transplant center.
I don't remember much after arriving there. I answered questions on the procedures. I let them perform anything. I changed clothes and got an injection. I remember only one thing until I woke up after the surgery, was moving from the gurney to the surgical table. And counting down from 15 to 12?
I have recovered completely. My vital signs are in the normal range. I am blessed. The original liver died before they could make the transplant. The other liver, apparently is a perfect match.
For the people who are recovering, listen to your doctor and be patient, because you were given a gift of life. Treat yourself properly and enjoy life! Life is a blessing.
My comments on the Evil Orange man are not always on the legal investigation.
His pathological lying behavior is apparent, but you don't give a flying fuck.
His closest foreign affairs and with brutal dictators. Kim Jong Ung has his heart. Giving aid and comfort to our enemies is treason as described in the Constitution. The only law that is defined in the Constitution. That's what really matters.
As to the political differences, that's what we decide at the ballot box.
The Democrats have the opportunity to get Trump out of office in just over 500 days.
He's the incumbent President and the economy is growing rapidly, although the middle class is not getting much. Wages are not growing as rapidly as the economy in general.
I have seen that the suburban voters are going to determine this election. The have positions supported by independents and the college educated swing voters.
The Democrats cannot assume the same thing they did in 2016. The three states swung the electoral college victory to the worst President ever.
I hope we don't pick Biden, because Trump will beat him.
Roger, you are again confused, not a week ago you Said any Socialist Democrat could beat Pres. Trump. Now you don't think Joe White and any of the 23 Dwarfs can beat President Trump.
Why?
You have the Mueller Report and 10 percent of the US House of representatives vote to Impeach.
Oh and under JFK, AG Robert Kennedy and FBI Director all Democrats, Dr. King was spied on.
"FBI documents from the 1960s allege Martin Luther King Jr. had affairs with 40 women and stood by as a friend raped a woman, a new report said.An article by the King biographer David Garrow set to be released on Thursday in Standpoint magazine will detail the FBI memos, London's The Times reported.Garrow said the memos say King engaged in orgies, solicited prostitutes, and "looked on and laughed" as a pastor he knew raped a woman.The memos were part of a huge US National Archives data dump in early 2019.The FBI secretly recorded King in a yearslong effort to discredit him. The tapes themselves remain under seal in the US National Archives. And Garrow's article was rejected by more prominent news outlets. So the story carries many unanswered questions about the accuracy of the FBI material."
...and the economy is growing rapidly, although the middle class is not getting much. Wages are not growing as rapidly as the economy in general.
It’s been a long time coming, but American workers are finally reaping the rewards of one the longest economic expansions ever. And they may get rewarded still.
Hourly pay earned by the typical employee rose sharply in February, pushing the increase in wages over the past year to a 10-year high of 3.4%.
The last time wages grew that fast was in early 2009.
Even better, inflation slowed toward the end of 2018, dropping to a yearly rate of 1.6% from as high as 2.9% last summer. That means Americans can buy more with their extra pay.
“With inflation under 2%, workers are seeing real gains,” said chief economist Tendayi Kapfidze of the online lender LendingTree.
Nor is there any reason to believe the wage boom will end soon.
wages always lag a growing economy as they are, by definition, a lagging, not leading indicator of economic growth.
in other words, the economy needs to pick up a head of steam in order for the labor supply to contract and for wages to rise as more labor is in demand.
look, i get that you need a way to beat trump but economics is not it. when you repeat bullshit like this that you hear come out of AOC's mouth or that you read in an LA Times op/ed, it makes you look like an even dumber fuck than we already know you to be.
stick to failing on political predictions alky, and leave the economics to those of us who have at least taken and passed econ 101.
Why do you support a man who has cheated on all three wives?

Sorry, America’s middle class: President Donald Trump’s signature tax code overhaul has not generated any meaningful new economic growth that wasn’t already underway, the nonpartisan Congressional Research Service (CRS) has found.
The new numbers inject further complexity into a contentious and ongoing debate around the landmark tax legislation as to who actually benefited from its passage. But the study should also offer additional clarity: With hard numbers now available on the economy’s performance in the first full year of the legislation, it’s easier than ever to talk instead about who got what and how — and the answers, so far, aren’t pretty.
Large corporations with shiny accounting departments ended up being the largest beneficiaries of the tax bill’s largesse, with the rate of tax they actually pay dropping by half in 2018, according to the CRS analysis. But the vanishingly insignificant comparative break Trump’s law gave workaday people lays the game bare. This tax bill is already reshaping the real-world economy in ways that limit the prospects of ordinary people, potentially reinforcing the structural inequities that adversely impact democratic society.
Trump and his congressional allies had forecast massive jumps in GDP growth and working-family incomes from the package. None materialized in year one. Annual growth hit 2.9% – identical to the 2015 mark, well below the 3.3% the Congressional Budget Office forecast when it sought to predict the tax bill’s impact in April of 2018, and right in line with what the CBO had predicted the economy would have done without Trump’s corporate-tax munificence.
The report’s findings underscore the deceitful nature of the administration’s first-term sales pitch.
Working people were supposed to benefit from the slashed corporate income tax rate and related rules tweaks intended to lure offshored profits back into the U.S. economy. American companies weren’t hiding $3 trillion in profit outside the country out of malice, the argument went. Rather, they were afraid of seeing it taxed too sternly, and would happily bring it home to make productive and equitable use of it just as soon as they felt it was safe from the taxman.
Some business heads dutifully followed this script in small and symbolic ways shortly after the law was signed, issuing year-end bonuses to their frontline employees and accompanying them with heavy fanfare in the press. But even the high-end estimates of those bonus payments account for less than 3% of the money corporate payers got handed back to them by the tax law. Those bonuses may have had as much to do with firms’ recognition that falling unemployment rates would make it easier for unhappy workers to leave for greener pastures, the CRS report notes.
So what happened to the other 97% of the money corporate accountants were handed by the government? A trillion dollars of it went to shareholders, as the law triggered a record wave of stock buybacks – an unproductive back-scratching activity that keeps the money firmly ensconced in upper-class hands that have little reason to spend that new cash back into the economy where working stiffs make their living.
This grand act of class solidarity between wealthy elected officials, wealthy corporate executives, and wealthy investors was entirely predictable. Corporate tax repatriation enticements and rates-slashing typically generate this kind of unproductive reshuffling of capital – thereby reinforcing the working class’s sense that they aren’t even being dealt into the hand.
Such stark differences in outcomes for the masses and the privileged few help fuel the populist anger that’s on the march across nearly every developed democracy on the planet.
Wages – a more stable indicator of how much wealth capitalists are allowing to pass through to their labor than any one-off bonus – offer no respite from the gloomy CRS diagnosis. Blue-collar wages rose just 1.2% in 2018 after accounting for inflation, the report’s authors found, which “indicated that ordinary workers had very little growth in wage rates.”
The corruption of our Imperial President runs deep and complete....can't even admit using the word nasty when the audio tape clear proves he said it.....such a douche....24/ 7 and you never miss a drop of his BS.....

“I am writing you because Mission China is in the midst of preparing for a visit from Department of Transportation Secretary Elaine Chao,” the official wrote in October 2017.
Ms. Chao’s office had made a series of unorthodox requests related to her first scheduled visit to China as a Trump cabinet member, according to people with knowledge of the email. Among them: asking federal officials to help coordinate travel arrangements for at least one family member and include relatives in meetings with government officials.

They run an American shipping company with deep ties to the economic and political elite in China, where most of the company’s business is centered. The trip was abruptly canceled by Ms. Chao after the ethics question was referred to officials in the State and Transportation Departments and, separately, after The New York Times and others made inquiries about her itinerary and companions.
“She had these relatives who were fairly wealthy and connected to the shipping industry,” said a State Department official who was involved in deliberations over the visit. “Their business interests were potentially affected by meetings.”
Second time you posted that asshole.....and you still have no idea....!!!!!
Stupidity goat fucker style....deny, lie and stick your head up trumps old fat stinky white ass and inhale!!!!!!! Funny how you can't post a cogent reason he thinks the models are incorrect....they sure all have been correct so far!!!!!!! Dumb fucking asshole

Modeling the Earth's climate is one of the most daunting, complicated tasks out there. If only we were more like the Moon, things would be easy. The Moon has no atmosphere, no oceans, no icecaps, no seasons, and no complicated flora and fauna to get in the way of simple radiative physics. No wonder it's so challenging to model! In fact, if you google "climate models wrong", eight of the first ten results showcase failure. But headlines are never as reliable as going to the scientific source itself, and the ultimate source, in this case, is the first accurate climate model ever: by Syukuro Manabe and Richard T. Wetherald. 50 years after their groundbreaking 1967 paper, the science can be robustly evaluated, and they got almost everything exactly right.
The Earth and Moon, to scale, in terms of both size and albedo/reflectivity. Note how much fainter the Moon appears, as it absorbs light much better than Earth does. The Earth and Moon, to scale, in terms of both size and albedo/reflectivity. Note how much fainter the Moon appears, as it absorbs light much better than Earth does. NASA / APOLLO 17 If there were no atmosphere on Earth, calculating the climate would be easy. The Sun emits radiation, the Earth absorbs some of the incident radiation and reflects the rest, then the Earth re-radiates away that energy. Temperatures would be easily calculable based on albedo (i.e., reflectivity), the angle of the surface to the Sun, the length/duration of the day, and the efficiency of how it re-radiates that energy. If we were to strip the atmosphere away entirely, our planet’s typical temperature would be 255 Kelvin (-18 °C / 0 °F), which is most definitely colder than what we observe. In fact, it's about 33 °C (59 °F) colder than what we see, and what we need to account for that difference is an accurate climate model.

“@SadiqKhan, who by all accounts has done a terrible job as Mayor of London, has been foolishly ‘nasty’ to the visiting President of the United States, by far the most important ally of the United Kingdom. He is a stone cold loser who should focus on crime in London, not me,” Trump wrote on Twitter as Air Force One was about to land in Britain. “Kahn [sic] reminds me very much of our very dumb and incompetent Mayor of NYC, de Blasio, who has also done a terrible job - only half his height. In any event, I look forward to being a great friend to the United Kingdom, and am looking very much forward to my visit. Landing now!”
If wages rose 1.2% after accounting for inflation, and inflation is 1.9%, then wages rose 3.1%, thus proving Obama's new normal was more of his bullshit.
If they are irrefutable, then why did these "scientist" alter and "sexed up" the data?
Real scientist don't put their thumb on the scale. Real scientist also don't make doomsday prediction that the world is going to end in 12 years if we don't do something about "climate change".
That is just hysteria that scares school children and nobody else.
There are three great truths in the global warming debate.
1. The earth will still be here pretty much as it is today in 12 years.
2. The climate is going to change regardless of what we do. It's been in constant flux for 4.5 billion years and will be in constant flux for another 4.5 billion years until the big Global Warming turns the earth into a cinder.
3. To create a massive economic disruption to address a problem that can't be addressed is sheer lunacy that will hurt and kill far more people than the problem itself.
“@SadiqKhan, who by all accounts has done a terrible job as Mayor of London, has been foolishly ‘nasty’ to the visiting President of the United States, by far the most important ally of the United Kingdom
That is an opinion that is shared by a great many Britains. In fact most people over there wish Sadiq Khan would just shut up. They may not like Trump, but they understand the importance of the relationship between Great Britain and the United States. Especially with a hard Brexit looming.
That is an opinion that is shared by a great many Britains
And you think it is just fine for the imperial president to interfere with their local politics.....Ever hear of a foreign officials diss an american mayor???????....I think not....but you also jump in.....so stupid it is beyond words......just keep slurping trump without a singe original thought of your own.....assshole....
CO2 levels are at 416 ppm the highest level in 3 million years and increasing....attributable to the burning of fossil fuels..
Which no one has proved matter a whit one way or the other. In fact, if you stop all fossil fuel burning today the earth is still predicted to warm by about 2 to 3 degrees Celsius, same as the prediction today. (And how I know all the climate change doomsday scenario is all bullshit)
To create a massive economic disruption No one is advocating that asshole.
That's exactly what they are advocating. Read the green new deal. It is total economic re-engineering back to 18th century mercantilism (with a socialist tinge).
Which no one has proved matter a whit one way or the other.
Wow.....that is the stupidest thing you have posted to date....to whit?????? WTF......And your basis for the warming is what???? Models or opinion...?????
That's exactly what they are advocating.
Who is advocating.....be specific....a link would be nice.....idiot... You obviously want to live in the 18th century with your stand on women's rights.....LOLOLOLOL!!!!
ll Saddiq Khan thinks it's OK to interfere in American politics.
Writing an opinion piece in a local paper????? While trump broadcasts to the world who he wants as PM???? Like Putin did with him??? That's okay with you is just plain stupid.......did you read it or are you just miming what you heard....asshole...Whi
The Trump supporting Brexit Party is having a phenomenal uptake in Britain
A majority of the people in Great Britain supports Brexit. The Brexit party came into existence because the conservative government failed to follow their mandate.
Tump said the United States stands ready to do a free trade deal with Great Britain if and when they exit the EU. If that's "interfering" than so be it.
"If" , "fear" "should" and the other pulled words are as valid as Luddite Cortez New Green Deal that has earth ending in a fire ball in 11 years and 6 months.
Again, if you believe her and the 7 Socialist Democrats running for the top spot and have signed on to it.
What is very interesting is that the idea that Putin was supporting Trump in the election was based on an intelligence committee assessment that people are now inferring was also based on the fake Steele dossier and made under Brennan and Clapper. Really makes no sense if Hillary was hacked by the Russians, they would have a lot on her, and also because Hillary was so friendly with them. Think reset button, Uranium One and large contributions to their foundation and "speeches".
I wonder what a real investigation will uncover...
Socialist Democrats running for the top spot and have signed on to it.
Which again proves you have no idea what you are talking about you goat fucking unemployed asshole....keep digging as I LMFAO ar you again and again and again......
What part of "Read the green new deal" did you not get?
The fact that it is meaningless ass hole....what part don't you get?????? The is nothing that will ruin the economy quicker than another couple cat 5 storms hitting a population center and another foot of seal level rise.....what do you prefer??????? BWAAAAAAAAA!!!!
You mean aside from the fact that the entire left wing of the Democrat party (Yes I know that's redundant) and every Democrat presidential candidate has signed on to it?

Although there are signs that public opinion has been shifting in favor of gun control in Virginia, the state has a history of support for gun rights symbolized by the location in Fairfax of the headquarters of the National Rifle Association.
Each year, Democrats propose multiple gun-control measures, such as strengthening background checks, limiting handgun purchases to one per month and allowing localities to regulate guns in public buildings. They call these “common-sense” measures to save lives.
Each year, Republican majorities in one or both chambers of the legislature vote them down, usually in committee. GOP legislators say their goal is never to infringe on people’s Second Amendment rights.
[Republicans in Virginia kill ‘red flag’ bill endorsed by Trump administration.]
“There’s been no tragedy that has gotten the [Republican] majority to think twice and consider reasonable efforts,” said state Sen. Adam P. Ebbin (D-Alexandria), who sponsored SB1748 and is co-chair of the Gun Violence Prevention Caucus. A big reason, he said, is the political influence of gun rights organizations.
Yesterday everyone was acting like Sgt Schultz.....I KNOW NOTHING and today by magic, the truth is slowly coming out!!!!
WASHINGTON – The U.S, Navy acknowledged Saturday it had received a request to shield a U.S. warship bearing the name of former political rival John McCain from President Donald Trump's view during the commander-in-chief's visit to Japan last week – but did not comply.
“A request was made to the U.S. Navy to minimize the visibility of USS John S. McCain, however, all ships remained in their normal configuration during the President’s visit," according to a statement from Rear Adm. Charlie Brown, Chief of Navy Information, that the Pentagon released.
The one-paragraph statement did not mention who made the request and a Pentagon spokesperson did not respond to a request for further information.
In his statement, Brown also said there were "no intentional efforts" to exclude sailors on the McCain from attending the president's address on Memorial day aboard the USS Wasp at Yokosuka Naval Base, south of Tokyo. The McCain is docked there for repairs.
John McCain and Donald Trump
The Wall Street Journal was the first to report that White House officials wanted the guided-missile destroyer to be kept "out of sight" during Trump's visit to Japan, apparently fearful that the president would be upset at having to see the name of the late Arizona senator, a frequent target of the president's anger.
The ship was named after McCain's father and grandfather, both decorated admirals. The Navy added the name of Sen. McCain, a prisoner of war in Vietnam who emerged from captivity a war hero, to the ship in 2018, according to the Journal.
Trump on Thursday said he had no knowledge of the request to keep the ship from view, saying, "I would never do a thing like that." He described the aides that made the request as "well meaning."
Love the Sunday Funnies.

Not so funny
It’s no secret that Mr. Trump’s ego is fragile. At the start of his tenure, he was so upset that his inauguration crowd had been smaller than Barack Obama’s that he had his press secretary lie about it and prompted the park service to edit photos to make his crowd look larger. Similarly, unable to cope with having lost the popular vote, the president formed an “election integrity” commission to try to prove that the election had been riddled with fraud on behalf of Hillary Clinton. It found none and was dissolved.
Two years on, the situation has become more absurd. Staff members have so internalized their boss’s vanities and petty grudges that they scurry to avoid anything that might offend his sense of self. The McCain episode may sound largely harmless, even if it showed further politicization of the military. This was, after all, the same event at which some service members were photographed wearing patches with an image of the president surrounded by the words “Make Aircrew Great Again” — a play on Mr. Trump’s MAGA campaign slogan. So it may be too much to expect anyone in this administration to think twice about such niceties.
But other instances of the president’s fragility are deadly serious. In late April, it came to light that the acting White House chief of staff, Mick Mulvaney, had warned Kirstjen Nielsen, then the homeland security secretary, against raising the issue of Russia’s attempts to interfere in American elections in front of the president. Ms. Nielsen was desperate to get the White House to show leadership and focus public attention on this critical threat. But Mr. Mulvaney told her that the entire issue was tangled up in Mr. Trump’s brain with questions about the legitimacy of his 2016 victory.

And so the integrity of the American electoral system is being neglected because White House aides don’t want to risk hurting Mr. Trump’s feelings. Who knows what other important issues are being similarly compromised? One has to wonder whether, somewhere in the White House computer system, there is a running list of topics that cannot be broached, lest they trigger the volatile Mr. Trump.

About 4 in 10 Americans now say that President Trump should be impeached and removed from office, according to a CNN poll conducted by SSRS.
The survey, which was released early Sunday, found that 41 percent of Americans said the president should be impeached based on what they have read or heard. The figure represents a 4 percentage point increase from a CNN poll released last month.
A majority of Americans, 54 percent, said they do not feel Trump should be impeached.
The Hill
https://www.nytimes.com/2019/05/30/opinion/donald-trump-john-mccain-navy-ship.html
A majority of Americans, 54 percent, said they do not feel Trump should be impeached.
The increased percentage favoring impeachment largely stems from growing Democratic support for it. Seventy-six percent of Democratic respondents said they support impeaching Trump, an 8 percentage point increase from April.
So basically the only thing that has changed is highly partisan Democrats who hate the bad orange man and have no brains that work anymore.
Independents are still against impeachment by almost two to one, while Republicans are 93%-6% against it.
His ego is so fragile.
White House chief of staff Mick Mulvaney said that it wasn't "unreasonable" for a Trump administration staffer to ask the Navy to make sure the USS John McCain was out of sight during President Trump's visit to Japan: "The president's feelings toward the former senator are well known."
Nixon had an approval rating in the 70% before the hearings.
The Democrats have to investigate, not yet start impeachment hearings.
The men who love the bad orange man and have no brains that work anymore.
You are a prime example of Trumpism stage four incurable delusional behavior.
Roger...
Nobody knew anything about Watergate before the investigations started.
The Russian Collusion delusion investigations have been going on since the summer of 2016, and the Public has been well aware of them for over two years.
Oh, and Nixon was actually guilty of both the underlying crime, witness tampering, lying under oath and a whole slew of things. But hey, what's guilt or innocence have to do with anything, right?
After all its no longer the 1970s, it's 2019 when facts don't matter.
Bottom line:
There literally isn't anything new that another round of investigations is going to accomplish. Nobody is going to learn anything new, and if Congress truly believes that a fourth investigation into this by Congress is going to "inform" those who otherwise have not paid attention, then they should all be taken out behind the barn.
The number of Americans who believe investigations should continue are approximately the same number as those who want to see Trump impeached either way. They want to continue to investigate to keep impeachment on the table. A majority wants to just move on. So everyone has pretty much made up their minds at this point and there is no "new" information that is going to sway anyone.
Mueller's attempt the other day was the last best gasp of hope for the anti-Trump crazies. The wad has been shot on Russia, 2016, and impeachment.
So basically the only thing that has changed is highly partisan
The only thing that changed is the % who want him impeached has risen by 4 points in a month....imagine if Mueller actually testifies in congress!!!!!! Even though his presser was rather boring.....he did not exonerate the asshole in chief of crimes that many who follow right wing news all thought he was forgiven by the report and Barr.....that could not be further from the truth other than some of your posts, Lil Scotty....
The Russian Collusion delusion investigations have been going on since the summer of 2016
The investigation into russian interference has been going on shorter period of time than the benghazi circus.....

Headline Wa Post.....
Well Denny,
Mueller can only repeat the same thing over and over and over so many times till nobody cares anymore.
I guess eight percent of Democrats still cared (or they otherwise reenergized the dying idiocy of impeachment).
Testifying before Congress at this point will only make Mueller look dumber than he already does. He will not change what he stated in his report, unless he wants to appear like a complete dishonest moron. So he repeats himself and will have to explain why he thought it was appropriate for the first time in DOJ history decide to start an investigation with an intention of "exonerating or not exonerating" someone.
Quite possibly the dumbest idea of an investigation in the 240 plus years of our Republic.

https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2019/05/31/hurricanes-may-pack-more-power-due-climate-change-scientists-say/1309226001/
Major hurricanes punished the Sunshine State the past three seasons. Those three monstrous storms accounted for more than 200 deaths and $85 billion in damages.
Is this an omen of the future?
Climate scientists fear man-made global warming will spawn stronger hurricanes, packing heavier rainfall, higher storm surge and greater winds.
"There’s plenty of evidence now in the literature that indicates these big weather events – these mesoscale systems in the Midwest and tropical cyclones – are all becoming wetter. And that is an issue," said Steven Lazarus, a Florida Institute of Technology ocean engineering and marine sciences professor.
"They’re dumping more rain. And they will continue to do so," Lazarus said.
• Sea level rise should cause higher storm surge levels. “That’s setting the stage for higher damage from any given storm," said Tom Knutson, a NOAA research meteorologist.
• Tropical cyclones will likely generate more rainfall. NOAA computer models project rainfall rate increases of 10% to 15% within about a 60 mile radius if global temperatures increase 2 degrees Celsius.

espite audio of remark
"No, I didn't know that she was nasty," Trump said in an interview with The Sun when asked about Markle's criticism of his candidacy in 2016.
By Allan Smith
President Donald Trump is insisting he did not call British royal Meghan Markle "nasty" during an interview with a British publication.
"I never called Meghan Markle 'nasty,'" Trump tweeted Sunday morning. "Made up by the Fake News Media, and they got caught cold! Will @CNN, @nytimes and others apologize? Doubt it!"
But an audio recording of Trump's interview with The Sun — which was tweeted out by a Trump campaign account — tells a different story.

@TrumpWarRoom
Fake News CNN is at it again, falsely claiming President Trump called Meghan Markle "nasty.
The president is first questioned about the America former actress' past comments calling Trump "misogynistic" and "divisive" during the 2016 campaign and saying she might move to Canada if Trump was elected.
"She said she would move to Canada if you got elected. It turned out she moved to Britain," the interviewer says to Trump, who is visiting the United Kingdom this week.
"Well, that'd be good," Trump responded. "There are a lot of people moving here. So, what can I say? No, I didn't know that she was nasty."
Roger - what does Meghan Markle have to do with this conversation?
You lose the legal argument, and so you bring up silly disputes between the President and Meghan Markle?
Why do you support a man who has cheated on all three wives? You should have the moral rectitude to censure Trump for well-documented crimes and objection of justice! What has happened to the Republican party of Ronald Reagan?
Roger, you are fucking insane

Go pay someone and get laid
Two years ago today, I received a lifesaving liver transplant. My 2 year Liverversity!
I had a condition, Polycystic Liver Disease, and minor cerrocis. I was in end stage liver disease. Very few people get a liver transplant with Polycystic Liver Disease as the major problem. My kidneys were falling too. The liver weighed about 30lbs. The surgeon said that it broke his back!
My doctors knew that I am a recovering alcoholic. I quit drinking on June 25th of 2012. If I had not stopped drinking and attended Alcoholic Anonymous meetings, I would never have been blessed. I have read here from other Alcoholics, and family members of other drunks. If you take the 12 steps seriously, and remain sober, you may get the surgery done before you die.
The night before I called a department nurse and she said that I am the primary patient to receive a liver they had received. I had to get there by early morning the next day, June 2nd.
I was alone. I was not capable of driving myself, and later on the evening, my wife and son in law, they drove me to UCLA transplant center.
I don't remember much after arriving there. I answered questions on the procedures. I let them perform anything. I changed clothes and got an injection. I remember only one thing until I woke up after the surgery, was moving from the gurney to the surgical table. And counting down from 15 to 12?
I have recovered completely. My vital signs are in the normal range. I am blessed. The original liver died before they could make the transplant. The other liver, apparently is a perfect match.
For the people who are recovering, listen to your doctor and be patient, because you were given a gift of life. Treat yourself properly and enjoy life! Life is a blessing.
My comments on the Evil Orange man are not always on the legal investigation.
His pathological lying behavior is apparent, but you don't give a flying fuck.
His closest foreign affairs and with brutal dictators. Kim Jong Ung has his heart. Giving aid and comfort to our enemies is treason as described in the Constitution. The only law that is defined in the Constitution. That's what really matters.
As to the political differences, that's what we decide at the ballot box.
The Democrats have the opportunity to get Trump out of office in just over 500 days.
He's the incumbent President and the economy is growing rapidly, although the middle class is not getting much. Wages are not growing as rapidly as the economy in general.
I have seen that the suburban voters are going to determine this election. The have positions supported by independents and the college educated swing voters.
The Democrats cannot assume the same thing they did in 2016. The three states swung the electoral college victory to the worst President ever.
I hope we don't pick Biden, because Trump will beat him.

Why?
You have the Mueller Report and 10 percent of the US House of representatives vote to Impeach.

There is no obstruction. You lost that argument.
Just like Mueller lost it to Barr, Rosenstein and the DOJ.

Oh and under JFK, AG Robert Kennedy and FBI Director all Democrats, Dr. King was spied on.
"FBI documents from the 1960s allege Martin Luther King Jr. had affairs with 40 women and stood by as a friend raped a woman, a new report said.An article by the King biographer David Garrow set to be released on Thursday in Standpoint magazine will detail the FBI memos, London's The Times reported.Garrow said the memos say King engaged in orgies, solicited prostitutes, and "looked on and laughed" as a pastor he knew raped a woman.The memos were part of a huge US National Archives data dump in early 2019.The FBI secretly recorded King in a yearslong effort to discredit him. The tapes themselves remain under seal in the US National Archives. And Garrow's article was rejected by more prominent news outlets. So the story carries many unanswered questions about the accuracy of the FBI material."
Pulitzer prize winner David J Garrow. And a Self proclaimed Socialist and Immoral Bernie Sanders supporter.
And a close personal friend Of President Obimbo.
...and the economy is growing rapidly, although the middle class is not getting much. Wages are not growing as rapidly as the economy in general.
It’s been a long time coming, but American workers are finally reaping the rewards of one the longest economic expansions ever. And they may get rewarded still.
Hourly pay earned by the typical employee rose sharply in February, pushing the increase in wages over the past year to a 10-year high of 3.4%.
The last time wages grew that fast was in early 2009.
Even better, inflation slowed toward the end of 2018, dropping to a yearly rate of 1.6% from as high as 2.9% last summer. That means Americans can buy more with their extra pay.
“With inflation under 2%, workers are seeing real gains,” said chief economist Tendayi Kapfidze of the online lender LendingTree.
Nor is there any reason to believe the wage boom will end soon.

dumbass,
wages always lag a growing economy as they are, by definition, a lagging, not leading indicator of economic growth.
in other words, the economy needs to pick up a head of steam in order for the labor supply to contract and for wages to rise as more labor is in demand.
look, i get that you need a way to beat trump but economics is not it. when you repeat bullshit like this that you hear come out of AOC's mouth or that you read in an LA Times op/ed, it makes you look like an even dumber fuck than we already know you to be.
stick to failing on political predictions alky, and leave the economics to those of us who have at least taken and passed econ 101.

Sorry, America’s middle class: President Donald Trump’s signature tax code overhaul has not generated any meaningful new economic growth that wasn’t already underway, the nonpartisan Congressional Research Service (CRS) has found.
The new numbers inject further complexity into a contentious and ongoing debate around the landmark tax legislation as to who actually benefited from its passage. But the study should also offer additional clarity: With hard numbers now available on the economy’s performance in the first full year of the legislation, it’s easier than ever to talk instead about who got what and how — and the answers, so far, aren’t pretty.
Large corporations with shiny accounting departments ended up being the largest beneficiaries of the tax bill’s largesse, with the rate of tax they actually pay dropping by half in 2018, according to the CRS analysis. But the vanishingly insignificant comparative break Trump’s law gave workaday people lays the game bare. This tax bill is already reshaping the real-world economy in ways that limit the prospects of ordinary people, potentially reinforcing the structural inequities that adversely impact democratic society.
Trump and his congressional allies had forecast massive jumps in GDP growth and working-family incomes from the package. None materialized in year one. Annual growth hit 2.9% – identical to the 2015 mark, well below the 3.3% the Congressional Budget Office forecast when it sought to predict the tax bill’s impact in April of 2018, and right in line with what the CBO had predicted the economy would have done without Trump’s corporate-tax munificence.
The report’s findings underscore the deceitful nature of the administration’s first-term sales pitch.
Working people were supposed to benefit from the slashed corporate income tax rate and related rules tweaks intended to lure offshored profits back into the U.S. economy. American companies weren’t hiding $3 trillion in profit outside the country out of malice, the argument went. Rather, they were afraid of seeing it taxed too sternly, and would happily bring it home to make productive and equitable use of it just as soon as they felt it was safe from the taxman.
Some business heads dutifully followed this script in small and symbolic ways shortly after the law was signed, issuing year-end bonuses to their frontline employees and accompanying them with heavy fanfare in the press. But even the high-end estimates of those bonus payments account for less than 3% of the money corporate payers got handed back to them by the tax law. Those bonuses may have had as much to do with firms’ recognition that falling unemployment rates would make it easier for unhappy workers to leave for greener pastures, the CRS report notes.
So what happened to the other 97% of the money corporate accountants were handed by the government? A trillion dollars of it went to shareholders, as the law triggered a record wave of stock buybacks – an unproductive back-scratching activity that keeps the money firmly ensconced in upper-class hands that have little reason to spend that new cash back into the economy where working stiffs make their living.
This grand act of class solidarity between wealthy elected officials, wealthy corporate executives, and wealthy investors was entirely predictable. Corporate tax repatriation enticements and rates-slashing typically generate this kind of unproductive reshuffling of capital – thereby reinforcing the working class’s sense that they aren’t even being dealt into the hand.
Such stark differences in outcomes for the masses and the privileged few help fuel the populist anger that’s on the march across nearly every developed democracy on the planet.
Wages – a more stable indicator of how much wealth capitalists are allowing to pass through to their labor than any one-off bonus – offer no respite from the gloomy CRS diagnosis. Blue-collar wages rose just 1.2% in 2018 after accounting for inflation, the report’s authors found, which “indicated that ordinary workers had very little growth in wage rates.”

The email arrived in Washington before dawn. An official at the American Embassy in Beijing was urgently seeking advice from the State Department about an “ethics question.”
“I am writing you because Mission China is in the midst of preparing for a visit from Department of Transportation Secretary Elaine Chao,” the official wrote in October 2017.
Ms. Chao’s office had made a series of unorthodox requests related to her first scheduled visit to China as a Trump cabinet member, according to people with knowledge of the email. Among them: asking federal officials to help coordinate travel arrangements for at least one family member and include relatives in meetings with government officials.
A redacted email about a trip Ms. Chao was planning to take to China. A request to include family members at events raised ethical concerns.

In China, the Chaos are no ordinary family. They run an American shipping company with deep ties to the economic and political elite in China, where most of the company’s business is centered. The trip was abruptly canceled by Ms. Chao after the ethics question was referred to officials in the State and Transportation Departments and, separately, after The New York Times and others made inquiries about her itinerary and companions.
“She had these relatives who were fairly wealthy and connected to the shipping industry,” said a State Department official who was involved in deliberations over the visit. “Their business interests were potentially affected by meetings.”

Modeling the Earth's climate is one of the most daunting, complicated tasks out there. If only we were more like the Moon, things would be easy. The Moon has no atmosphere, no oceans, no icecaps, no seasons, and no complicated flora and fauna to get in the way of simple radiative physics. No wonder it's so challenging to model! In fact, if you google "climate models wrong", eight of the first ten results showcase failure. But headlines are never as reliable as going to the scientific source itself, and the ultimate source, in this case, is the first accurate climate model ever: by Syukuro Manabe and Richard T. Wetherald. 50 years after their groundbreaking 1967 paper, the science can be robustly evaluated, and they got almost everything exactly right.
The Earth and Moon, to scale, in terms of both size and albedo/reflectivity. Note how much fainter the Moon appears, as it absorbs light much better than Earth does.
The Earth and Moon, to scale, in terms of both size and albedo/reflectivity. Note how much fainter the Moon appears, as it absorbs light much better than Earth does. NASA / APOLLO 17
If there were no atmosphere on Earth, calculating the climate would be easy. The Sun emits radiation, the Earth absorbs some of the incident radiation and reflects the rest, then the Earth re-radiates away that energy. Temperatures would be easily calculable based on albedo (i.e., reflectivity), the angle of the surface to the Sun, the length/duration of the day, and the efficiency of how it re-radiates that energy. If we were to strip the atmosphere away entirely, our planet’s typical temperature would be 255 Kelvin (-18 °C / 0 °F), which is most definitely colder than what we observe. In fact, it's about 33 °C (59 °F) colder than what we see, and what we need to account for that difference is an accurate climate model.

“@SadiqKhan, who by all accounts has done a terrible job as Mayor of London, has been foolishly ‘nasty’ to the visiting President of the United States, by far the most important ally of the United Kingdom. He is a stone cold loser who should focus on crime in London, not me,” Trump wrote on Twitter as Air Force One was about to land in Britain. “Kahn [sic] reminds me very much of our very dumb and incompetent Mayor of NYC, de Blasio, who has also done a terrible job - only half his height. In any event, I look forward to being a great friend to the United Kingdom, and am looking very much forward to my visit. Landing now!”
If wages rose 1.2% after accounting for inflation, and inflation is 1.9%, then wages rose 3.1%, thus proving Obama's new normal was more of his bullshit.
And property values are also up. Oops.

Real scientist don't put their thumb on the scale. Real scientist also don't make doomsday prediction that the world is going to end in 12 years if we don't do something about "climate change".
That is just hysteria that scares school children and nobody else.
There are three great truths in the global warming debate.
1. The earth will still be here pretty much as it is today in 12 years.
2. The climate is going to change regardless of what we do. It's been in constant flux for 4.5 billion years and will be in constant flux for another 4.5 billion years until the big Global Warming turns the earth into a cinder.
3. To create a massive economic disruption to address a problem that can't be addressed is sheer lunacy that will hurt and kill far more people than the problem itself.
1. The earth will still be here pretty much as it is today in 12 years.
Pretty much a bullshit statement...!!!
The climate is going to change regardless of what we do.

That is an opinion that is shared by a great many Britains. In fact most people over there wish Sadiq Khan would just shut up. They may not like Trump, but they understand the importance of the relationship between Great Britain and the United States. Especially with a hard Brexit looming.
The Trump supporting Brexit Party is having a phenomenal uptake in Britain and looks to soon be the controlling party.
FAKE NEWS channels are aghast.
That is an opinion that is shared by a great many Britains
And you think it is just fine for the imperial president to interfere with their local politics.....Ever hear of a foreign officials diss an american mayor???????....I think not....but you also jump in.....so stupid it is beyond words......just keep slurping trump without a singe original thought of your own.....assshole....
CO2 levels are at 416 ppm the highest level in 3 million years and increasing....attributable to the burning of fossil fuels..
Which no one has proved matter a whit one way or the other. In fact, if you stop all fossil fuel burning today the earth is still predicted to warm by about 2 to 3 degrees Celsius, same as the prediction today. (And how I know all the climate change doomsday scenario is all bullshit)
To create a massive economic disruption
No one is advocating that asshole.
That's exactly what they are advocating. Read the green new deal. It is total economic re-engineering back to 18th century mercantilism (with a socialist tinge).
The Trump supporting Brexit Party is having a phenomenal uptake in Britain
Yeah, those anti trump protests seem rather uptake for his opinion!!!!!!!......BWAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!
And you think it is just fine for the imperial president to interfere with their local politics.
Well Saddiq Khan thinks it's OK to interfere in American politics. So there's that.
And if Saddiq Khan has shut his mouth he would have never heard from Trump. And his royal invitation wouldn't have been rescinded.
Which no one has proved matter a whit one way or the other.
Wow.....that is the stupidest thing you have posted to date....to whit?????? WTF......And your basis for the warming is what???? Models or opinion...?????
That's exactly what they are advocating.
Who is advocating.....be specific....a link would be nice.....idiot... You obviously want to live in the 18th century with your stand on women's rights.....LOLOLOLOL!!!!
ll Saddiq Khan thinks it's OK to interfere in American politics.
Writing an opinion piece in a local paper????? While trump broadcasts to the world who he wants as PM???? Like Putin did with him??? That's okay with you is just plain stupid.......did you read it or are you just miming what you heard....asshole...Whi
The Trump supporting Brexit Party is having a phenomenal uptake in Britain
A majority of the people in Great Britain supports Brexit. The Brexit party came into existence because the conservative government failed to follow their mandate.
Tump said the United States stands ready to do a free trade deal with Great Britain if and when they exit the EU. If that's "interfering" than so be it.
Who is advocating.....be specific...
What part of "Read the green new deal" did you not get?
Writing an opinion piece in a local paper?????
So a 180 tweet is interfering but a 1000 word editorial is not interfering.
You're sure a funny guy Denny.
Denney, please stop embarrassing yourself.
"If" , "fear" "should" and the other pulled words are as valid as Luddite Cortez New Green Deal that has earth ending in a fire ball in 11 years and 6 months.
Again, if you believe her and the 7 Socialist Democrats running for the top spot and have signed on to it.
What is very interesting is that the idea that Putin was supporting Trump in the election was based on an intelligence committee assessment that people are now inferring was also based on the fake Steele dossier and made under Brennan and Clapper. Really makes no sense if Hillary was hacked by the Russians, they would have a lot on her, and also because Hillary was so friendly with them. Think reset button, Uranium One and large contributions to their foundation and "speeches".
I wonder what a real investigation will uncover...
Socialist Democrats running for the top spot and have signed on to it.
Which again proves you have no idea what you are talking about you goat fucking unemployed asshole....keep digging as I LMFAO ar you again and again and again......
What part of "Read the green new deal" did you not get?
The fact that it is meaningless ass hole....what part don't you get?????? The is nothing that will ruin the economy quicker than another couple cat 5 storms hitting a population center and another foot of seal level rise.....what do you prefer??????? BWAAAAAAAAA!!!!
The fact that it is meaningless ass hole....
You mean aside from the fact that the entire left wing of the Democrat party (Yes I know that's redundant) and every Democrat presidential candidate has signed on to it?
Yea, those Facts.
CS, Denny is a Science Denier and massive pollution creator.
(Yes I know that's redundant) and every Democrat presidential candidate has signed on to it?
Signed up for what????? It is an idea that will not be implemented......asshole especially for the goat fucking jag off from kansas.....go drive your pig truck around.....asshole...
