Oh FFS. Is this even possible? Doesn't each network control its own chyrons during the SOTU? And silly me, I thought I was illegal to raise funds on the back of official presidential duties. Oh and please tell me dear conservative peas—-how is this email that he’s sending out to millions of people NOT divisive and attacks Democrats, pegging them as the enemy??? I fucking hate the asshole and cannot wait until he’s gone—whatever way that happens.

What was it he did in his previous SOTU? I think had a phone number displayed asking for donations maybe? Paul Ryan was supposed to look into it, but I never heard another word about it.

”Rep. Earl Blumenauer announced today he won't be attending the State of the Union, as he has done the past two years. “The thought of spending Tuesday night in the House Chamber listening to the reckless, self-centered man who occupies the White House holds no interest for me."
I wonder what would happen if no one showed up, just trump speaking to an empty chamber and TV camera.

linkNewsweek... ”Trump administration argues it could be "traumatic" to reunite thousands of migrant children with their parents trib.al/IUkyXF9” From the article... Court filings by the Trump administration’s Health and Human Services (HHS) Department have argued that it could be “traumatic” to remove migrant children from sponsors homes and reunite them with their parents, suggesting that such action “would present grave child welfare concerns.” “It would destabilize the permanency of their existing home environment, and could be traumatic to the children,” Jonathan White, who is in charge of the the department’s efforts to reunite the separated children with their parents, said in the filings, the Associated Press (AP) reported. The agency also suggested that the reunification would take extraordinary effort, arguing that the administration should simply focus on reuniting children being held in custody, not those released to sponsors. President Donald Trump’s controversial policy to separate migrant children from their parents drew national and international outrage last year, with a federal court in June inevitably ordering the government to suspend the policy and reunite the impacted families. However, a report released by the Inspector General of the HHS in mid-January revealed that the administration did not even know how many thousands of children were separated and was struggling to account for those who had been released to sponsors prior to the court decision.“ If that is the case, just exactly what does the trump administration think should happen to these kids now? Keep them with the sponsors? Isn’t that kind of like stealing? And how about all the kids in foster care in this country that are looking for “permanency of a stable home environment “? Shouldn’t they be considered first if there are all these sponsors out there willing to give kids permanent homes with a stable family life?

”Trump administration argues it could be "traumatic" to reunite thousands of migrant children with their parents trib.al/IUkyXF9” If they had NOT TAKEN the kids, there would be no problem! And they did it deliberately to traumatize the kids!! (let me find the aritcle!) found Leaked Memo Reveals Government Plan to ‘Traumatize’ Migrant ChildrenJAN 18, 2019 NEWS Kirstjen Nielsen Lied to Congress About Trump’s War on Migrant Children
Senator Jeff Merkley is demanding a perjury inquiry. And he’s got documents that point to shameful wrongdoing. HOMELAND SECURITY By John NicholsTwitter Friday 18 January 2019 5:08 PM Senator Jeff Merkley has obtained compelling evidence that President Trump’s Secretary of Homeland Security lied to the House Judiciary Committee about the administration’s brutal immigration policies, and he is demanding that the FBI open a perjury investigation into Kirstjen Nielsen’s claim that her department “never had a policy for family separation” at the US-Mexican border. ** Nielsen was confronted by US Representative Luis Gutierrez (D-IL). “It is as if you can’t see the reality of modern immigration or contributions of anyone who came from countries other than Norway or other parts of Europe. It’s as if you and the Trump administration are blind,” he said. “Shame on everybody that separates children and allows them to stay at the other side of the border fearing death, fearing hunger, fearing sickness. Shame on us for wearing our badge of Christianity during Christmas for allowing the secretary to come here and lie.” Nielsen took umbrage, telling the committee that “calling me a liar is fighting words.” “I’m not a liar, we’ve never had a policy for family separation,” she declared. That was not the first time Nielsen had issued so bold a denial. On June, 17, 2018, the DHS secretary claimed that “We do not have a policy of separating families at the border. Period.” But the document that was leaked by a government whistle-blower, and that has now been released to the media by Merkley, reveals that Trump administration officials weighed proposals to target migrant families. An analysis by Merkley’s office concludes that ** The Trump administration has not taken its duty to cooperate with Congress seriously on many issues. But nowhere has that failure been more pronounced than on the issue of immigration policy. Merkley is calling them out—not for purposes of partisan positioning but with the moral fury that the actions of Trump, Nielsen, and their associates demands. “[The] administration was treating children as political pawns, not vulnerable human beings,” says Merkley. “That’s reprehensible. We must end this Trump war on migrant children.” liblog.law.stanford.edu/2019/01/memorandum-reveals-united-states-government-planned-to-traumatize-migrant-children/this is a draft from Dec 2017 order about kids on the border www.documentcloud.org/documents/5688664-Merkleydocs2.html

Here we go.......... Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) warned on Monday that there could be a “war” among Republicans if President Trump declared a national emergency to build the U.S.-Mexico border wall. Graham, speaking in South Carolina, acknowledged that the idea divides Republicans, who he argued should unite behind the president if he ends up circumventing Congress to build the wall. "It seems to me that he's gonna have to go it alone, but there could be a war within the Republican Party over the wall," Graham said. Graham added that he would "stand with" Trump if he declares a national emergency to construct the U.S.-Mexico border wall and urged his Republican colleagues to "get behind the president" if he goes down that path. "To any Republican who denies the president the ability to act as commander in chief, you're going to create a real problem within the party," Graham said. ** thehill.com/homenews/senate/428365-graham-there-could-be-war-among-gop-over-border-wall

It was 35 years ago works when your a Republican but if your AOC your entire college life is picked apart for OMG dancing and they’ll post pictures of another woman in a bathtub and claim that it’s you and they can microscopically see your breast in the faucet reflection. But if your and old white male Republican we can’t bring up the past. Either the past matters or it doesn’t which is it?

Btw, if Nancy Pelosi is going to be speaker of the house and reoresentvme and prevent things coming to a vote then I ought to be able to email her, yet I can’t, unless I lie and put in a zip code in her jurisdiction.
Mitch too btw.
It’s not right that one person can control the votes but then we can’t even contact them in a timely manner. USPS is not a timely manner.
Why can’t someone stop this stupud illegal electioneering during the SOTU since it’s out there publicly? If I could email Mitch & Nancy is email them and ask. I went to thier office website & I can’t email them

Just like he’s actively working to divide the country as a whole. Y’all just refuse to see it. Wake the hell up & take your party back FFS And the Democrats are next if they can’t get their shit together. You think the only election ‘interference’ that happened was ads to Tepublucans to get them to be Trump supporters? Add in the targeted ads & social media posts targeted to the Bernie bros as well. Wake the hell up and defend your party FFS stop dithering around with a kabillion vaguely qualified candidates it will be our downfall. This is Russia destabilizing our entire country. This whole thing has been/is a Russian attack on our nation. It’s what Putin wants. Weaken the USA & weaken Europe. He is accomplishing that without a shot fired. Our country is already greatly weakened by the actions of this asshole in the Oval Office to our allies no way to tell where the hell we will stand in 2 more years. If we are still standing at all.

linktrump... ”I am pleased to announce that David Bernhardt, Acting Secretary of the Interior, will be nominated as Secretary of the Interior. David has done a fantastic job from the day he arrived, and we look forward to having his nomination officially confirmed!” This is the guy who trump wants as Secretary of the Interior. It would appear for a Secretary of the Interior we have gone from the frying pan into the fire. From Tucson.com. 11/24/2016 “Former Rosemont Mine lobbyist on, off Trump's Interior transition team”
From the article “A former Rosemont Copper lobbyist served as the head of President-elect Donald Trump’s Interior Department transition team before being removed this week in an apparent purge of lobbyists from the team. David Bernhardt lobbied for the mining company from 2011 through 2015, among numerous other lobbying contracts, and remains a consultant to Rosemont. He was appointed to the Trump transition team before the Nov. 8 election. But last week, numerous national media outlets reported that Vice President-elect Mike Pence had decided to get rid of all lobbyists from the transition team. On Monday, Bernhardt was replaced by David Domenich, who like Bernhardt had worked for the Interior Department during George W. Bush’s presidency. Bernhardt was the department’s solicitor during much of the Bush era. Bernhardt’s role in the Trump transition may not be over, however. On Nov. 18, he officially ended his last publicly recorded lobbying role, for the powerful Westlands Water District in California’s Central Valley. That could be seen as an effort to remove his sudden stigma of being a Washington, D.C., lobbyist. (Not really)
The Interior Department won’t be making the final decisions on the Rosemont Mine proposal. But its Fish and Wildlife Service, Bureau of Land Management and U.S. Geological Survey all have played major roles in the protracted controversy over the mine. Fish and Wildlife, for instance, wrote a key biological opinion concluding that the mine won’t jeopardize the existence of endangered species or illegally damage their critical habitat. Bernhardt’s employer, the law firm Brownstein Hyatt Farber Schreck, has spent $1 million lobbying on Rosemont’s behalf since 2011, according to the website OpenSecrets.org, which tracks federal lobbying efforts and campaign contributions.”

The wall is coming, now............ US prepares to start building portion of Texas border wall By NOMAAN MERCHANT today 02-04-2019 HOUSTON (AP) — The U.S. government is preparing to begin construction of more border walls and fencing in South Texas’ Rio Grande Valley, likely on federally owned land set aside as wildlife refuge property. Heavy construction equipment was expected to arrive starting Monday, U.S. Customs and Border Protection said. A photo posted by the nonprofit National Butterfly Center shows an excavator parked next to its property. ** The refuge consists of dozens of parcels of land purchased over the last 40 years to create a corridor for endangered species and other wildlife. ** The National Butterfly Center released the text of an email sent by an attorney from the U.S. Department of Justice. The lawyer, Cliff Stevens, says in the email that construction will begin in mid-February “on federally owned land east of Bentsen State Park.” Directly east of Bentsen State Park is a refuge tract called El Morillo Banco, which is between the state park and the butterfly center. DOJ declined to comment on the email, and CBP did not respond to several requests for comment. ** Protesters were walking Monday along the river levee where CBP intends to start construction. The butterfly center said on Facebook that a local police officer had declared all their property south of the levee to be off limits. The center says it intends to take legal action. Chapman said that despite months of protests and meetings, he hadn’t seen “any attempt” from the U.S. government “to acknowledge and to take the needs of wildlife into account.” “If you were going to design a border wall with maximal impact, you would do exactly what they were doing,” Chapman said. “You couldn’t do it worse.” www.apnews.com/e653d5a305114835bb399e480ac44ab8

GOOD NEWS!!! Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg on Monday made her first public appearance since having surgery to remove cancerous nodules from her lung, attending a production celebrating her life. Ginsburg attended a showing of “Notorious RBG in Song” at the National Museum of Women in the Arts in Washington, according to The Washington Post. The program, which is composed and performed by Ginsburg’s daughter-in-law, Patrice Michaels, offers a portrait of the 85-year-old justice in several songs. The Post noted that that production is presented for high school students by the National Constitution Center. "Thrilled that Justice Ginsburg attended the first concert performance of #NotoriousRBG in Song," Jeffrey Rosen, president and CEO of the National Constitution Center, tweeted. "She, Patrice Michaels, and the performance were magnificent!" ** thehill.com/homenews/428463-ruth-bader-ginsburg-attends-musical-production-in-first-public-appearance-since
