Yeah, you think the 2008 crisis was bad, you ain't seen nothin' yet. This is the purpose of the ‘trickle down’ bullshit. Rich people get tax breaks. They get richer. The middle class get poorer businesses & houses & business property go into foreclosure. They rich people swoop in with all their tax savings to buy the foreclosed properties for pennies on the dollar. They buy up the family farms. They buy up the small building owners buildings. They buy up prime real estate for pennies. Which means the rich get even richer, the poor get even poorer. They blame the poor for not working far enough, not saving enough for making bad choices. They blame the democrats for wanting to help the poor & what’s left of the middle class and people freak out and vote in assholes like trump. Blah blah blah lather rinse repeat I do not want to see the result in 15 years when we are in a fuedal plutocracy I gotta say Mnuchin has guts to announce it pre election though.

I gotta say Mnuchin has guts to announce it pre election though. It would come out one way or another.. They haven't done a budget yet and the fiscal year ends Sept 30th. And of course they will be away for August!

Oh, they’re thrilled. It gives them another chance to strong arm the Democrats into doing what he wants, to push through a raise to the debt ceiling (if I’m understanding this correctly) or go through the spectacle of another government shutdown.

This just makes me sick. It looks like Pence is trying to look over the top of them and not have to look at them. He looks like he smells something (which of course he does since they aren’t allowed to bathe or put on clean clothes)

Chilling! Pence has become as corrupt as dt!
When will the Democrats have to courage to tell the world that the GOP did nothing while they were in charge for the first two years of dt's term and when they did nothing for the years before!!
I am not advocating negative campaigning, just respond as needed!

This should scare the crap out of all of us!! “The Supreme Court even ruled this question could be on there, but it was impossible to get it on in time for printing,” Gidley said.
Of course, Gidley didn’t mention the fact that the reason it’s “impossible” to put the citizenship question on the Census in time is that the court found that the administration’s first attempt to include the question violated the law. Chief Justice John Roberts struck down the Commerce Department’s plans because it provided an apparently “contrived” justification for including the question.
**
“We looked at inserts, we looked at all types of options,” Gidley continued. “And the president said: ‘Listen. I’m not going to be beholden to courts anymore. I have the legal authority to find out this information. The American people deserve to know it. So I’m moving forward with this method.”

The video of Pence and Graham and those other evil people standing there just staring straight through those men in cages has really shaken me to my core. I don’t know when I’ll ever be proud to be an American again. I feel sick.

I always find it rather amusing when peas post that their "like" of a post doesn't represent a good feeling. I feel the need to do that here. Thank you for sharing this. What my "like" means in this case is, thank you, oh shit. followed by a deep sigh. I think I do like to acknowledge that I have read it, NOT that is is always a good thing...

I have my own theories, especially with his point that their job is to defend the constitution. But it’s ambiguous enough that I doubt my interpretation.

Damn, you never know who might be cheating! Chess Grandmaster Igors Rausis Caught Cheating with Cellphone Found in ToiletMike ChiariJuly 13, 2019 A chess game is covered with snow in a park in Niederreifenberg near Frankfurt, Germany, Saturday, May 4, 2019. Parts of Germany have experienced a sprinkling of snow just weeks before the meteorological start of summer. (AP Photo/Michael Probst) Michael Probst/Associated Press The World Chess Federation (FIDE) announced Saturday that it caught chess grandmaster Igors Rausis cheating during a tournament in France. According to ESPN.com, the FIDE noted that Rausis was "caught red-handed using his phone during a game."
A cellphone was found in a toilet that Rausis had used during the competition, and Rausis later admitted to using it to cheat. Per Chess.com, Rausis said the following regarding the scandal: "I simply lost my mind yesterday. I confirmed the fact of using my phone during the game by written [statement]. What could I say more? ... At least what I committed yesterday is a good lesson, not for me—I played my last game of chess already." ** bleacherreport.com/articles/2845458-chess-grandmaster-igors-rausis-caught-cheating-with-cellphone-found-in-toilet?utm_source=cnn.com&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=editorial

I've never understood cheating. If you cheat you know you are not good enough to win or get good grades your own. That breeds insecurity which makes most people miserable. But then I am not competitive with other people but highly competitive only with myself.

Yeah, you think the 2008 crisis was bad, you ain't seen nothin' yet. And just like in 2008, Republicans will blame the Democrat elected next rather than the Republican who actually ran the economy into the ground. I keep hoping we (Americans) will eventually figure out this con, but we just keep falling for it over and over again.

linkWell duh! BBC News “New leak claims Trump scrapped Iran nuclear deal 'to spite Obama'From the article.. “Sir Kim Darroch described the move as an act of "diplomatic vandalism", according to the Mail on Sunday . It says the memo was written after the then Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson appealed to the US in 2018 to stick with the nuclear deal. Under that agreement Iran agreed to limit its sensitive nuclear activities. It would also allow in international inspectors in return for the lifting of crippling economic sanctions. However, President Trump did not think that the deal went far enough. The newspaper reports that after Mr Johnson returned to the UK from the US, Sir Kim wrote that President Trump appeared to be abandoning the nuclear deal for "personality reasons" because the pact had been agreed by his predecessor, Barack Obama. The British ambassador is said to have highlighted splits amongst US presidential advisors and that the White House did not have a "day-to-day" strategy of what to do following withdrawal from the deal. The paper reports that Sir Kim wrote a memo to Mr Johnson, saying: "The outcome illustrated the paradox of this White House: you got exceptional access, seeing everyone short of the president; but on the substance, the administration is set upon an act of diplomatic vandalism, seemingly for ideological and personality reasons - it was Obama's deal. Moreover, they can't articulate any 'day-after' strategy; and contacts with State Department this morning suggest no sort of plan for reaching out to partners and allies, whether in Europe or the region." The latest disclosure comes despite a warning from Scotland Yard to media about publishing leaked diplomatic memos. They warned that journalists who released further details of the former ambassador's communications could be in breach of the Official Secrets Act. The first memos, which emerged a week ago, saw the then UK ambassador refer to the Trump administration as "clumsy and inept".

This from Jake Sherman....
”The president is suggesting foreign-born members of Congress — who are not only citizens, but duly elected to federal office — “go back” where “they came” from”
And this from Phillip Rucker...
”Three of the four members of “the squad” were born in the United States, so they would “go back” to Cincinnati, Detroit and New York.”
What trump has tweeted now so I checked..
”So interesting to see “Progressive” Democrat Congresswomen, who originally came from countries whose governments are a complete and total catastrophe, the worst, most corrupt and inept anywhere in the world (if they even have a functioning government at all), now loudly......
and viciously telling the people of the United States, the greatest and most powerful Nation on earth, how our government is to be run. Why don’t they go back and help fix the totally broken and crime infested places from which they came. Then come back and show us how....
”it is done. These places need your help badly, you can’t leave fast enough. I’m sure that Nancy Pelosi would be very happy to quickly work out free travel arrangements!”

He’s putting democrats against democrats. Like he’s done before.

”Friday’s tour showed vividly, to politicians and the media, how well run and clean the children’s detention centers are. Great reviews! Failing @nytimes story was FAKE! The adult single men areas were clean but crowded - also loaded up with a big percentage of criminals......
”Sorry, can’t let them into our Country. If too crowded, tell them not to come to USA, and tell the Dems to fix the Loopholes - Problem Solved!”
So tell us trump which ones of these men are criminals. Show us which ones.
That is the problem, actually one of many, he makes these ridiculous statements and no one is in the position to ask these questions and stay at it until he answers.
And it matters when you are the president.

I think people are in the position to do it once, but I suspect they will run into issues like Acosta does. At this point they really need to just band together and decide they are going to keep at it and none of them accept his BS answers. Every time he takes questions. Every.single.time. Every.single.reporter.

Well dimwit donnie sure set off a shit show this morning. Neither he or any of his stooges can claim what he said was somehow distorted. He was very clear.
Nancy Pelosi...
”When @realdonaldtrump tells four American Congresswomen to go back to their countries, he reaffirms his plan to “Make America Great Again” has always been about making America white again.
Our diversity is our strength and our unity is our power.”
“I reject @realdonaldtrump’s xenophobic comments meant to divide our nation. Rather than attack Members of Congress, he should work with us for humane immigration policy that reflects American values. Stop the raids - #FamiliesBelongTogether!”
