trump....
“As a candidate, I promised we would pass a massive tax cut for the everyday, working Americans. If you make your voices heard, this moment will be forever remembered as a great new beginning – the dawn of a brilliant American future shining with PATRIOTISM, PROSPERITY AND PRIDE!”
Psst tiny hands the people are letting you know what they think about this tax plan but you aren’t listening.
So now if you don’t support trump’s agenda you are unpatriotic? Is that what he is implying?

"As McMaster & a dozen other top aides met with Trump in the Oval... Trump grew impatient, stood up, walked into an adjoining bathroom and left the bathroom door open, instructing McMaster to raise his voice & keep talking--" Wait, WHAT???

.@presssec on preventing U.S. attacks: “If you could name a single thing that would have prevented both of these, I would like to hear it because I don't know what that would look like. But we’re looking every single day at how you can protect American lives.”
Now this is funny. trump just made a big deal of the regulations he has cut and says there are more planned for 2018. Polluted air, land, & water can and does kill people. Especially children. So the bolded statement is a lie.

From the Washington Post...
“Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Scott Pruitt returned Wednesday from a trip to Morocco, where he talked with officials about their interest in importing natural gas as well as other areas of “continued cooperation” between the two countries.
The EPA disclosed the trip late Tuesday, issuing a media release that included photos and a statement from Pruitt saying that the visit “allowed us to directly convey our priorities and best practices with Moroccan leaders.”
“We are committed to working closely with countries like Morocco to enhance environmental stewardship around the world,” Pruitt said.
The purpose of the trip sparked questions from environmental groups, Democratic lawmakers and some industry experts, who noted that EPA plays no formal role in overseeing natural gas exports. Such activities are overseen primarily by the Energy Department and Federal Energy Regulatory Commission.”

EPA watchdog to probe Pruitt’s $25,000 privacy booth
BY TIMOTHY CAMA - 12/12/17 01:02 PM EST The Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) internal watchdog will investigate Administrator Scott Pruitt’s decision to spend nearly $25,000 on a privacy booth for his office. EPA Inspector General Arthur Elkins told Democrats in the House Energy and Commerce Committee in a letter made public Tuesday that his office will look into whether the agency’s purchase complies with congressional spending legislation, in response to a letter the committee sent. “Your letter does raise issues about whether those agency decisions comply with appropriations law, that is, are appropriated funds available for the purchase of ‘construct[ing] a secure, soundproof communications booth in the offices of Administrator Scott Pruitt’ ” Elkins wrote to Rep. Frank Pallone Jr. (N.J.), the panel’s top Democrat, in the Deb. 8 letter. “That is within the authority of the [inspector general] to review, and we will do so,” Elkins wrote. ********** Pruitt said it would be “hard to predict” how often he would use the booth. thehill.com/policy/energy-environment/364465-epa-watchdog-to-probe-pruitts-25000-privacy-boothIt truly NEVER ends!! |

Paul Ryan's plans for Medicare are scaryBy Errol Louis, CNN Political Commentator
Updated 2:17 PM ET, Fri December 8, 2017(CNN)Confirming the warnings and worst fears of progressives, House Speaker Paul Ryan made it plain this week: the ultimate aim of Republican lawmakers -- and their number one priority in January -- is to shrink the Medicare program that provides health insurance to the elderly and disabled. "Next year we're going to have to get back at entitlement reform," Ryan said on a Wisconsin radio talk show, calling Medicare the "biggest entitlement that's got to have reform." ********** Part one is to slash taxes and drastically lower the amount of revenue available to the federal government. The tax bill that GOP majorities recently approved in both houses of Congress accomplishes that nicely, adding $1 trillion to the federal budget deficit under the most optimistic economic scenario, according to the nonpartisan Joint Committee on Taxation. Part two of the plan is to suddenly recoil in horror at the fact of the budget deficit (yes, the same one that Republicans happily conjured up by cutting taxes). Ryan's radio interview is a step in that direction. "Frankly, it's the health care entitlements that are the big drivers of our debt," he said -- just days after happily adding a trillion to the tab with tax cuts. Piling up debt and deficits sets the stage for the third and concluding strategy: to lower the debt by dialing back Medicare eligibility, lowering the benefits and otherwise crippling the program. www.cnn.com/2017/12/08/opinions/paul-ryan-delivers-the-ugly-news-on-medicare-louis/index.htmlHe wants to finish the job! |

John Beard..,
“President Trump says the Disney purchase of most Fox assets is “great for jobs”. That is exactly the opposite of what happens in huge consolidations. Many jobs will be lost, they always are. This is why we have and used to enforce anti-trust laws.”
He’s right. M&A = RIF. Mergers & Acquisitions = Reduction in Force.

“President Donald Trump loves Fox News, but fans of the conservative-leaning network are starting to like him a lot less.
In June, 90 percent of respondents in a Suffolk University poll who said they trust Fox over other news networks viewed Trump favorably, but by October, approval had fallen to 74 percent and plummeted to 58 percent in December, The Washington Post reported on Thursday. That’s a 32-point drop in six months.”
Oh oh. Someone isn’t going to be happy if he finds out.

Official: Tillerson 'not really speaking' for Trump anymoreBY JOHN BOWDEN - 12/14/17 10:20 PM ESTA White House official sharply rebuked Secretary of State Rex Tillerson on Thursday, telling The Washington Post that President Trump's Cabinet member no longer speaks for the administration. “I think our allies know at this point he’s not really speaking for the administration,” the official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, told the newspaper. The same person described Tillerson as "irrelevant" due to the influence of other diplomats and Cabinet officials.Tillerson's continued willingness to engage North Korean officials in conversation put him at odds with the White House again this week, which emphasized that Trump's position on the issue had not changed. One official told the Post that Tillerson “had not learned his lesson from the last time" when Trump rebuked him on Twitter about trying to talk to North Korea. White House deputy press secretary Raj Shah told the Post that Trump “is very pleased with his entire national security team, which includes Secretary Tillerson.” State Department spokeswoman Heather Nauert told the newspaper that Tillerson “enjoys a strong relationship with the president. Most importantly, they share a commitment to the denuclearization of the Korean peninsula, the security of our homeland and the protection of our allies.” Tillerson has been the subject of months of speculation about his future in the administration, while his relationship with Trump has received much attention. In October, NBC News published a report claiming that Tillerson called Trump a "f---ing idiot" in comments after a meeting at the Pentagon, a story both the White House and State Department denied. thehill.com/homenews/administration/365048-official-tillerson-not-really-speaking-for-white-house-anymoreWHAT? ? ? Irrelivent? not learned his lesson from the last time? ? ? Childish for sure!!

From NPR....
“An organization representing the interests of small farmers across rural America fired a legal salvo Thursday aimed at a Trump administration they feel has let them down.
The lawsuit, filed by the Organization for Competitive Markets — a small-farmers think tank based in Lincoln, Neb. — and three farmer plaintiffs, did not shake the halls of Congress. Nor will it go viral on social media. But to the 40,000 contract poultry farmers, 900,000 cattle ranchers, and 70,000 hog farmers in America's heartland whose interests it seeks to represent, the lawsuit represents the tip of an iceberg of financial and emotional despair.
At issue is the Trump administration's withdrawal of two Obama-era rules designed to protect small farmers, who say they are being exploited by the meatpacking companies they supply.”

2017: Trump admin moves to roll them back.
wvgazettemail.com/news/politics/… (via @kenwardjr)”
So he brings back coal jobs and at the same time he lets the coal industry dump in creeks and streams and takes away the protections that would prevent the coal miners from getting black lung disease. And he’s taking away their medical coverage as well
Didn’t tiny hands promise to take care of coal miners? Talk about being screwed.

linkFrom The NY Daily News “Donald Trump's right to free speech trumps other people's right to free speech, according to his lawyers. The President's legal team argued this week that he couldn't have violated the rights of protesters when he called on his supporters to remove them from a campaign rally last year — because they violated his rights first. "In this case, Plaintiffs interfered with the Trump Campaign's freedom to 'choose the content of (its) own message,'" Trump's lawyers wrote in a motion. "Thus, by interjecting this anti-Trump speech in the middle of a pro-Trump rally, they were obviously transforming the message that Mr. Trump and the Campaign wished the event to convey." The motion was filed in an attempt to dismiss a lawsuit filed by a number of protesters who were violently escorted from a Trump campaign rally in Louisville, Ky., in March 2016 after Trump belted, "Get 'em out of here" from the stage.” I think the key here is how these folks were “escorted” out of the area. But it’s an interesting take presented by his lawyers. trump has every right to speak and others have that same right to speak at the same time. What trump does not have is the right to incite the crowd to remove those he doesn’t like violently. I’m not a lawyer but I think that is what the lawsuit is all about.
