Discussing Trump's eventual interview w/Mueller "Remember, Clinton was impeached by congress for giving ONE oblique answer — definitely a lie — about an extra marital blow job in a 6 hour deposition. Picture how many lies Trump could pack into the first 6 minutes." |

Juan Williams: Ground shifts on immigration BY JUAN WILLIAMS, OPINION CONTRIBUTOR — 12/18/17 06:00 AM EST THE VIEWS EXPRESSED BY CONTRIBUTORS ARE THEIR OWN AND NOT THE VIEW OF THE HILL
Earlier this month, 34 House Republicans sent a letter to Speaker Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) urging a vote on a DACA fix before the New Year. Many of those Republicans represent swing districts with a growing number of immigrants. *********** Rep. Steve King (R-Iowa) went very low this month when he tweeted “diversity is not our strength,” and quoted a Hungarian autocrat popular with European white nationalists, saying that mixing cultures leads to a “lower” quality of life.Today’s strong economy and vibrant American culture with 43 million immigrants, more than 13 percent of the population, clearly refutes King’s charge. King obviously finds political advantage in Iowa by fanning anger at immigrants. Trump had success selling the same bitter brew nationwide in his winning 2016 presidential campaign. thehill.com/opinion/immigration/365296-juan-williams-ground-shifts-on-immigrationWhat a dirt bag King is............. |

No infrastructure is going to fix a train traveling at 80 mph in a 30 mph zone. With his first tweet, Trump lacks the empathy of a house fly. With his second tweet, it's obvious that his staff realizes that.

Newsweek....
“President Donald Trump spent much of his campaign promising to bring back coal, an industry that he said then-President Barack Obama had demoralized with too many regulations. So in July when Trump declared at a rally that he had created 45,000 coal jobs since the start of his presidency, many coal miners rejoiced.
"Everybody was saying, 'Well, you won’t get any mining jobs,' we picked up 45,000 mining jobs. Well, the miners are very happy with Trump and with Pence, and we’re very proud of that," Trump said to an excited audience.
The only problem seems to be that number was nowhere close to true. In fact, since the beginning of Trump's presidency, just 1,200 coal-mining jobs have been created, according to monthly reports by the Bureau of Labor Statistics. In fact, the 1,200 coal jobs during Trump's presidency thus far are just 100 more than were created between August and December 2016 under President Obama.”
Typical donald don’t let those pesky facts get in the way of the hype trump tactic.

Jason Kander....
“GOP willing to pass unpopular tax bill and worsen their terrible standing with the public, because if they don’t, they’ll lose campaign funds.
When politicians fear donors more than voters, it’s time to get new politicians who want to change the system.”
While I agree with this in theory, I will add be careful who you chose to change the system or you coukd end up with more trumps.

This tweet by tiny hands....
“DOW RISES 5000 POINTS ON THE YEAR FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER - MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!”
Prompted this response from John Harwood.....
“the Dow increased more in Obama’s first 11 months (29%) than Trump’s (24%)”
Darn those pesky facts.

The Hill..... “President Trump has referred to Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, who appointed Robert Mueller as the special counsel for the Russia probe, as "a threat to his presidency," according to a report in The Washington Post. The report, published Sunday, said Trump has referred to Rosenstein as "weak" and made fun of the deputy attorney general's testimony last week in front of the House Judiciary Committee. The president has also complained about Rosenstein being "a Democrat," although the Justice Department official is actually a Republican, the Post said. Rosenstein appointed Mueller the special counsel in May, after Trump fired FBI Director James Comey.” Actually donnie the only threat to your presidency is you based solely on your words and your actions. So which is it- R is a threat to his presidency or he is weak? Both? A weak guy is a threat to his presidency? Diddums  |

MSNBC.... “ Cornyn suggests it's Dems' fault the GOP tax plan isn't 'better'I’m curious. The Republicans control the White House, the House, and the Senate. Just how working with the Democrats would make the bill better? Really how would working with the Democrats would have made the bill better? The only way it could have made it better for the GOP is that they, then, could blame all of it on the Democrats and wouldn’t have had to take responsibility for the hosing the average American is going to get. |

“At the UN we're always asked to do more & give more. So, when we make a decision, at the will of the American ppl, abt where to locate OUR embassy, we don't expect those we've helped to target us. On Thurs there'll be a vote criticizing our choice. The US will be taking names.”
Granted I’m old but I don’t remember this being an issue for the American People. And taking names?? Well you can see trump is rubbing off on her and not in a positive way.

House discloses three more sexual harassment settlements totaling $115K BY MALLORY SHELBOURNE - 12/19/17 02:22 PM EST The House Office of Compliance on Tuesday disclosed three additional sexual harassment settlements totaling $115,000 as advocates and lawmakers call for changes to how Congress handles accusations of sexual misconduct. The settlements are from fiscal 2008 through 2012. The information does not include to whom the settlements were paid or from which offices the complaints originated. "As I have stated from the beginning of this review, one case of sexual harassment is one case too many," Rep. Gregg Harper (R-Miss.), who chairs the House Administration Committee, said in a statement. "We must create a culture within our Capitol Hill community that instills in every employee and employer, new and old, that there is no place for sexual harassment in the halls of Congress." “As part of my Committee's review, I asked the Office of Compliance for a breakdown of the $17 million total amount that has been reported by their office for all cases involving claims of violations of the Congressional Accountability Act.” Harper said the committee’s investigations into logging settlements would continue, as it has yet to obtain all of the requested information. The total dollar amount paid out for House member-led offices between those fiscal years is $342,225.85.thehill.com/homenews/house/365640-house-discloses-three-more-sexual-harassment-settlements-totaling-115000 |

Senate Russia investigators are interested in Jill Stein by ROBERT WINDREM DEC 19 2017, 6:03 PM ET Why are investigators interested in Stein? The environmentalist, an advocate of better relations with Russia, has been a Kremlin favorite since her first run as the Green Party's presidential candidate in 2012. She has regularly appeared on Russian state-owned television, including RT, and famously sat across from Russian President Vladimir Putin at a 2015 gala dinner. "The Russian embrace of Jill Stein was anything but subtle," said Andrew Weiss, a Russia expert at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace. "Russian state propaganda outlets like RT had a field day with her strident attacks on the U.S. political establishment, and they seemed to work hand in glove." www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/why-are-senate-russia-investigators-interested-jill-stein-n831261You need to see the picture! |

Lighting the West, dividing a tribeBy JAMES RAINEY Photos & Video JIM SEIDA DEC 18, 2017 For almost half a century, America’s largest native reservation relied on coal: for jobs and economic vitality. Now the coal era on the Navajo reservation appears near an end.The utility that operates the Navajo Generating Station announced at the start of 2017 that it would turn off the plant by December 2019. The shutdown would almost certainly drag down the power plant’s lone coal supplier, the Kayenta Mine, which has no other customers.News of those twin blows has rattled hundreds of Navajo workers who would lose their jobs, sent politicians from the Arizona state house to President Trump’s Interior Department scrambling for ways to keep the plant in business, and thrown the far-flung Navajo Nation and the neighboring Hopi Reservation into a tempest. Loved or hated, coal has been a mainstay of life here for decades, even as it has fouled the air and scarred the land that the tribe holds sacred. ****** The stakes are unusually high. The shutdown of the mine and the power plant — known by its acronym, NGS — would deprive the Navajo reservation of its two largest non-governmental employers. The 43-year-old generating station and its sister coal mine employ more than 700 people, many at salaries of more than $100,000 a year, a small fortune in the depressed economy of Northern Arizona. Another 2,300 jobs in the region are linked to the two major employers. ********* More at link: www.nbcnews.com/specials/navajo-coalSo much for jobs! Oh and how he loves the Navajo!!

Safe to assume this little bit of infro will not make its way to trump.
“59 percent of American voters say in a Quinnipiac University poll released yesterday that President Donald Trump’s job performance is poor, citing his moral character deficits. Trump received low marks despite the 63 percent of those surveyed who said the economy is “excellent” or “good.” Even so, more people credited former President Barack Obama (45 percent, including 29 percent of Republicans) than Trump (29 percent) for that success.”

He is such a liar. Still waiting to see how these tax cuts are going to get jobs to the areas that need them the most. And how the the tax bill will train these workers so they have the skills needed for all these jobs.
