As empathetic as I am, my first instinct is that these kind of jpegs without need of proper sourcework may bait liberals into planted lies. (No offense Craig; I think you're ****ing awesome ftr.)

 

That said, Nawar seems to have indeed been a victim of Trump(not really his fault/it was really successful)'s Yemen mission.

Hey, where'd you find this? Some useful info on here.

Sessions is in trouble. This Russian interference is getting louder. It will all be claimed fake news though, guaranteed with a bullet.

 

I think you'd have to be pretty dense to feel heartened after last night's address. Platitudes abound. Most egregiously, his appropriation of the fallen soldier and his aching wife to defend the (hollow) merits of his untimely death brought me chills. And don't get me started on 'VOICE.' Shameful.

 

Well, isn't that all major political speeches?  Every year we get a State of the Union address that is pretty much exactly this.  I guess I can't criticize that.  Everyone does this schtick and has for as long as politics have existed.

 

The only difference I see is in the reception and how low our expectations are for Trump.

Yeah, this one has been vetted. Just not acknowledged by the administration. Just like the protest from the father of the slain soldier.

I was simply surprised he seemed normal. The bar is set so low for him, that people are hyperventilating over him sounding normal. I would have to look back at speeches, but I'm pretty confident in saying it was the worst state of the union in a long time. GW used to give some good speeches occasionally, so it would be interesting to see this one ranked in the last 30 years.

I tend to think how  good a speech like this is viewed has more to do with whether your pet issues were touched on rather than the rhetoric itself.  All of these are really just the act of kissing a baby on camera stretched out over three hours of blather.

Sessions just held a press conference denying everything...but still recusing himself.

 

I suppose impeachment proceedings for committing perjury should be the next step...but probably won't happen.

At least he recused himself.  Small victories.

Lock him up! Lock him up!

Things just keep getting worse for trump. The new ObamaCare bill is being protected like a nuclear bomb. Supposedly the gop is going to try to push it through without anyone reading it or providing input. Yeah, with something this complex there is no pushing. Constituents want all the benefits of the aca, yet think there is a way to do it without requiring everyone have insurance.

 

Add in that trump clearly is going to cut entitlements, which he promised he wouldn't, and increase military sending (wtf)... Rhetoric is one thing, the real world is actually real life. McCain and Graham had a town hall last night that was excellent. Really respect those two. More republicans will start going to their side I hope.

Semi-serious question: how do these people even look at themselves in the mirror in the morning?

Some people really only care about themselves, and money. I've never understood it, but it's just true. 

Was run on Fox, so intended audience would see it.

 

 

Background music, although great, is a distraction.

The whole debacle with Trump accusing Obama for Phone Tapping Trump Tower is the last step. I hate Trump like I would hate a child molester and killer - the former is actually something that has been thrown out there in the last year.

 

This dick wad tries to spin everything bad against him. He is the purveyor of fake news and he attempts to throw this awful blanket on his opposition (mainly the media). I really hate Trump and his gang of evildoers. At times it seems like they are succeeding with there utmost lies.

 

I don't think there is much left to be said on the Trump topic. I am done with it unless there is a shift towards sanity, which would probably lead to his impeachment.

 

Words can only do so much in a limited forum. Venting is good for a person - I am past that point.

 

I hope that awful man and his cohorts get what they deserve. I hope the majority of citizens in this country explode and give him his just rewards.

I hope he did have his phone tapped... and there was a warrant for doing so. Let's hear those phone conversations! Could be the beginning of the end.

The GOP will probably order ten investigations on the alleged wire tapping without substantive evidence and continue to hem and haw about investigating ties with Russia.

It's going to be really hard to do that when the Director of the FBI - a Republican - is saying he wants the DoJ to reject the claim.

Newsflash: The government (NSA) already has surveillance on all 320 million American people, not just Trump. This isn't a new revelation nor is Trump special with regard to being targeted.

I welcome a wiretapping investigation. Why? In order to wiretap, the FBI needs a court order that requires probable cause a crime has been committed. Let's investigate that part too while we're at it.

What is more likely to trump supporters.... he has illicit ties to Russia and has the entire campaign.... or Obama illegally tapped his phone? I'm going to say the majority are more upset at Obama right now.

I have seen Sarah Huckabee a couple of times now as Trump's spokesperson.  She does not have Kellyanne's sugar does not melt in my mouth while I lie while talking in an innocent girl voice.  She tries to do the same deflection tactics, but seems much more rattled and uncomfortable.

 

Superficial addendum -- I think she might have also inherited her father's crazy eyes.

Hell, they would be more upset even if the wiretapping was legal.

Apparently slaves were immigrants, looking for a better future for their descendants. Who knew!

Texas knew.

 

A TEXAS high school student and his mother recently called attention to a curious line in a geography textbook: a description of the Atlantic slave trade as bringing “millions of workers” to plantations in the American South.

Nitpick: I knew I had seen this story a while back, and the October 2015 byline of this article confirms my memory.

 

I dunno. I guess in a POTUS thread, I don't see this as confirming something new under President Trump. That's the only reason I bring up the caveat. Carry on.

I now feel like I killed the thread, unless people are now feeling good about the President and how great he is for the country and the welfare of the world in general and that is what is leading to the slowed down thread activity.

 

I know warning the GOP of a bloodbath at the 2018 elections if they don't pass his healthcare bill is a sign of a true leader.
