EJ Dionne... As #Trump administration greenlights work requirements for "able-bodied adults” on Medicaid, 5 states want to impose arbitrary lifetime time limits on benefits for politically disfavored categories of recipients. Important piece @ed_kilgore” One of the examples given of who could be affected by this are the working poor that do not receive benefits and can’t afford the premiums for insurance on the exchange. That sure says a lot about the folks pushing for this change to Medicaid doesn’t. And who might be the 'politically disfavored categories' of recipients?!?!?!? Disabled, physically and/or mentally? Those in drug treatment and not able to work? I am sure there is a list somewhere in his mind?

linkNewsweek.... “Most of the fake news shared on social media is coming from right-wing conservatives, an Oxford study has found bit.ly/2E9aLNe and. “Trump supporters consumed the largest volume of junk news on Twitter in the three months leading up to President Donald Trump's State of the Union address last month, researchers say.” Yup we do.

Ben Rhodes...
“Attack free press. Investigate political opponents. Obstruct justice. Scapegoat immigrants. Reward cronies. Hold military parades.”
Yes it seems president tiny hands still wants his parade and the Generals are working on it.

Trump tells Pentagon to plan a military paradeBy Eli Watkins and Ryan Browne, CNN Updated 7:29 PM ET, Tue February 6, 2018 Washington (CNN)President Donald Trump has asked for a military parade and the Pentagon is reviewing potential dates, Pentagon spokesman Charlie Summers said Tuesday. The spokesman described the planning process as being in its "infancy." The Washington Post first reported Trump told top Pentagon brass last month he wants a military parade. "The marching orders were: I want a parade like the one in France," a military official told the paper. "This is being worked at the highest levels of the military." Trump's meeting with senior military leaders last month included Vice President Mike Pence, White House chief of staff John Kelly, Defense Secretary James Mattis and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs Gen. Joseph Dunford. ** Outside of France, authoritarian nations the world over have made massive displays of military power a mainstay of their public celebrations. ** Trump's call for a military parade might be hitting a few snags. The Post said shipping tanks and military hardware into Washington could cost millions of dollars, and that military officials said they were unsure how to pay for it.After the Gulf War in 1991, the US put on a victory celebration replete with servicemembers and military gear.More at link! www.cnn.com/2018/02/06/politics/military-parade-trump/index.htmlShall we say dictator?

Trump considering new work requirements, raising rent for federally subsidized housing: reportBY JACQUELINE THOMSEN - 02/06/18 06:23 PM EST ** The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) would allow public housing authorities and private owners to require each adult in a household to work up to an average of 32 hours a week. The elderly and disabled — who make up 55 percent of those receiving federal housing aid — would be exempt from the requirements. Another 26 percent of those receiving assistance are already working, NBC News reported Tuesday. Education and vocational training could count toward those hours, but volunteer service would not, according to a copy of the draft proposal obtained by NBC. ** The proposal also recommends rent increases for those receiving the subsidies. Rental contributions would increase to 35 percent of tenants’ income, up from 30 percent. Recipients would also not be allowed to deduct medical and child-care costs from their incomesMore at link: thehill.com/homenews/administration/372636-trump-considering-adding-work-requirements-for-people-in-federallyGive the billionaires their tax cuts and screw people in need. No problem with work requirements although in many areas transportation is a major issue as it was/is in my area when they instituted Welfare to Work. But raise the rent percentage and cut deductions for medical expenses and childcare which was actually just a percentage of the expenses? I just thought of something.... Maybe he thinks all of them are 'brown' which is not the case at all!

This is what passes for news on Fox right now ... Trey Gowdy "hinting" something about something else that they're speculating about. And folks on the right wonder why we don't take them seriously as a news source. Gowdy 'hints' about Sidney BlumenthalTheir whole front page is Clinton with a little smidge of illegal drunk driver killed football player. Emphasis on illegal. Because people killed by drunk white American citizens aren't just as dead. SMH.

Charlotte Clymer....
“Just trying to imagine what would have happened if Barack Obama had been a year in office w/ historically low approval ratings, in the midst of numerous scandals, being investigated by the FBI, Congress + a special prosecutor, and ordered the Pentagon to stage a parade for him.”
Yes I can just imagine.

He wanted a big show of military force at his inaugural parade so I'm not surprised. I think the Pentagon leaked, then confirmed, the Post story because they couldn't tell him to his face that this was an awful idea.
The roads in DC would crumble under the weight of M1 tanks rolling down the street. If there is anything a soldier dislikes, it's marching. Funds for a parade would be better spent on Veteran's care (unless Mexico is paying for this too). If this spectacle actually happens, those that do not support it will be called 'un-American' conveniently right before the midterm elections.

I think funds would be better spent on veterans, supporting programs for military families, care for military, raises for military—but not a parade to stoke the egomaniac.

Top Rope Report...
“Estimated cost of Trump's military parade: $17.2 million
Cost to provide housing for every homeless veteran in America (40,000): $24.7 million
Trump wants a military parade in his honor. Veterans want to sleep out of the cold & rain.
Where do you want your tax dollars to go?”
Ouch.
