We have a shot at beating Moscow Mitch! This would be one of the BEST things, EVER!! Democratic Kentucky Senate candidate Amy McGrath released a new campaign ad accusing Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) of leaving the state’s coal miners behind. “It was a ten-hour bus ride,” Jimmy Moore, a coal miner from Pike County, Kentucky, said in the ad. “We were coal miners with black lung disease, going to see our senator, Mitch McConnell to try and save our disability benefits.” A group of 120 coal miners took the trip to Washington, D.C., last month to appeal to McConnell to fund their disability benefits by collecting more taxes from coal companies to offset the workers’ medical bills, Newsweek reported. “Ten hours on the bus, and we got to see him for all of one minute,” Moore continues, telling viewers that his step-father and grandfather died of black lung, and that his son also suffers from the progressive respiratory disease that is caused by the inhalation of toxic coal dust. Moore also accused McConnell of “letting the coal companies walking away from us, and then, after one minute, he did too,” in the ad, which is currently running in the state of Kentucky, Newsweek reported. ** Coal companies were previously required to pay $1.10 per ton in excise taxes to support the federally-run Black Lung Disability Trust Fund. But the fund has had to borrow more than $6 million to pay miners, according to Newsweek. ** thehill.com/blogs/blog-briefing-room/news/458706-mcgrath-releases-ad-blasting-mcconnell-with-coal-miners-in

If this year's G7 ends poorly, however, Trump's foreign counterparts won't need to fret about his attendance at next year's. He's due to host it, and his Doral golf resort outside Miami has been reported as a possible venue.” This is another level of ridiculous. He can profit by having everyone pay to stay and eat and pay for meeting rooms, etc at his golf resort? What an abuse of power. I hope the other G7 leaders refuse to stay there and demand a venue not owned by Trump and his greedy family.

Jack Goldsmith..
”I'm surprised so many are surprised about the delegated authority Congress gave POTUS in IEEPA. The entire global trade war—practically every move Trump has made—was an exercise of power that the Constitution gave to Congress but that Congress gave to POTUS, with few constraints.”
Benjamin Wittes...
Jack’s point here is right and also wise. In a wide variety of areas, Congress has given away its power to the President with sweeping authorizations. Such laws assume a president whose oath of office means something and whose judgment is sound. It’s time to rethink those laws.” ”

”Before I arrived in France, the Fake and Disgusting News was saying that relations with the 6 others countries in the G-7 are very tense, and that the two days of meetings will be a disaster. Just like they are trying to force a Recession, they are trying to “will” America into..”
“bad Economic times, the worse the better, anything to make my Election more difficult to win. Well, we are having very good meetings, the Leaders are getting along very well, and our Country, economically, is doing great - the talk of the world!”

He can't even get the right handle on his tweets either. He tweeted: “Just had lunch with French President @emanuelmacrone. Many good things are happening for both of our countries.Big weekend with other world leaders!”” However, the account he linked in the tweet belongs to a parody account and not his French counterpart. It was corrected later! He's such an idiot and so out of his depth to be any country's leader let alone a country as big and as powerful as the US.

This needs to stop. There is a video with tweet that shows the black kid getting out of the car WITH HIS HANDS UP and the cop charged him and slammed on his head.
Deniiise...
“Bridgeport police officer hit a 17-yo black teen in the head with his pistol during a traffic stop, claimed he feared the teen was reaching for a gun.
The officers name is Gianni Capozziello. He needs to be fired & charged with assault.”
“He had his hands up and turned around!! Also, why during a traffic stop do both cops approach with weapons drawn?”

Julia Davis....
“Trump claimed that multiple foreign leaders had told him they agreed that #Russia should be readmitted to the G-7, though Europeans have been adamant that Russia should remain ostracized and argued with Trump about it at dinner Saturday.”
“Trump declined to specify who had supposedly agreed with him about re-admitting #Russia to G7. “I could, but I don’t believe that’s necessary,” he said.”
Ah a another version of the “many people” who tell him things but they only exist in trump’s big brain. Or to look at it another way the tiny voices in trump’s head telling him stuff.

Sorry if I missed this posted earlier: www.google.com/amp/s/www.nytimes.com/2019/08/23/business/powell-fed-interest-rates-trump.amp.htmlSo the Fed Chair is an “enemy” for stating what every economist knows? Well, I guess technically Trump is an economist because he has the degree, but he is obviously a FAKE economist because he has no f**king clue about how his trade war is going to affect our economy! My brother, a REAL economist for the past 20+ years, loses his shit everyday over Trumps stupidity. Last night he proposed an interesting theory: whoever is advising him (or their cronies) is making money off the chaos Trump is causing. Someone who knows what Trump is up to can can take advantage of these large market swings. So what if it is illegal—no one in the Trump administration is going to touch them. I know it sounds like a conspiracy theory, but I think he might be onto something. Trump has always caused chaos as part of his “art of the deal”—keep the other side guessing so they don’t know what you really want. Someone who knows him well could manipulate him into thinking this will work to his advantage as president, resulting in these crazy flip-flops on policy and outrageous pronouncements. And while we are focusing on the crazy, they are making bank in the stock market or passing legislation that benefits them financially. Passing legislation? Are you suggesting that Congress, which would include Dems, is part of some scam to make money off a volatile market? I don’t know yet if they are, but the R’s are definitely in the corner of the large corporations& the 2% richest. The legislation from the last several years where they had both houses shows it. I don’t think that the Democratic Party platforms as a whole mesh with this strategy, but then again neither did the traditional R platform. They’ve migrated to the Pro rich people platform since gingrich. I’m sure a few Dems can be on board with certain legislation passing because they don’t see the real impact of it and it’s tied with something else. Heck some of the R’s are unknowing in their being complicit because they are just voting ‘party’ - sucks for them if they are left out of the gravy train. Make no mistake there IS a gravy train. Trump is the smoke screen, not the real problem.

I don't know who she is, but she's got balls way bigger than Donnie's. That was Agata Kornhauser-Duda, first lady of Poland, and this occurred in 2017 during a ceremony in Warsaw. She did shake Trump’s hand immediately after shaking Melania’s. The clip was misleading, but it was amusing nonetheless. link

Or to look at it another way the tiny voices in trump’s head telling him stuff. The only " people" that can make that decision is the leaders of the other six countries that make up the G7. No one else's opinion matters so Trump can ask as many countries as he likes for their opinion, it counts for nothing.

I was willing to change from I to R just to vote in the R primary and help get Trump out. I can vote for whomever is left in the end.......

Ooh, you should read the backstory about that vineyard that Trump literally STOLE from a widow!!!!!! He did put it in Eric's name and he's supposedly been running it, but the wines are offered/pushed at every Trump golf restaurant (and it's crap!). They have ALWAYS hired undocumented workers for the vineyard, "because no U.S. citizens want to do that type of work". Ha!

The right hand doesn't seem to know what the left hand is doing here. Trump quite plainly says he has second thoughts about raising tariffs with China. Yet a spokesperson for the White house said he was misinterpreted. link
