https://www.thestar.com/news/canada/2017/04/20/trump-delivers-another-attack-on-canadian-dairy-trade-calling-it-a-disgrace.html


Donald Trump says what Canada has ‘done to our dairy farmers is a disgrace’
The president’s comments came only hours after Prime Minister Trudeau praised Trump’s willingness to listen to reason.

Lawsuits against O'Reilly, you do understand they are possible because a LIBERAL wrote a law, right?

Do people understand that with trump and the GOP, or Pence in charge, with the GOP in charge in the House and Senate, that laws making these lawsuits possible will disappear, you do KNOW that, right?

Laws that make what trump and team are doing as to espionage, they can be changed too, you know that, right?

So next time you make an even remotely negative comment about the democratic party, remember that what you are doing is working toward making it so the only laws that are left protect white males and wall street.

I see I have to make a revision already, ANY negative comment can work against the party AT this TIME in our history, and will.

There isnt enough room here for me to make mine because I am a FAR left person, but I know the difference between a two party system and not one.

I dont have to explain this to people who understand.

Jason Chaffetz, Powerful House Republican, Wont Run in 2018

https://www.nytimes.com/2017/04/19/us/politics/jason-chaffetz-congress-utah-house-oversight.html

Bye



WASHINGTON — Representative Jason Chaffetz, the powerful chairman of the House Oversight Committee, told supporters on Wednesday that he would not seek re-election to Congress — or for any office — in 2018.

Mr. Chaffetz, 50, a Utah Republican who plainly relished his oversight role more under a Democratic administration, said he was ready to return to the private sector after more than 13 years in public service, calling his decision a “personal” one.

“I have long advocated public service should be for a limited time and not a lifetime or full career,” he said in a statement posted on Facebook. “After more than 1,500 nights away from my home, it is time.”

OMG, this is a NIGHTMARE--MIKE PENCE WILL BE THE MOST POWERFUL CHRISTIAN SUPREMACIST IN U.S. HISTORY

https://theintercept.com/2016/11/15/mike-pence-will-be-the-most-powerful-christian-supremacist-in-us-history/

Focus on the future , folks.. Since Hillary won both the EC and popular vote (yes, sorry to break it to you but there is no way the Russians planted agents here for decades, some even being born here, then come upon a compromised idiot to do their bidding in the form of Trump and then left it up to US to decide the election? no way in hell...hacking machines by on the ground russian agents in postiions like election board members and so on...sounds outrageous? think about it for a while...No, Hillary did not lose those states)

But, since the election was stolen, and since it is becoming clear Trump is likely to be going, look at who will take his place.

God
Help
Us

And if Pence goes, who is next? Paul "I am gonna get your Social Security if it kills me" Ryan.




THE ELECTION OF Donald Trump has sent shockwaves through the souls of compassionate, humane people across the country and the world. Horror that a candidate who ran on a platform of open bigotry, threats against immigrants and Muslims, and blatant misogyny will soon be president is now sinking in. Trump appointed a white nationalist, Steve Bannon, as chief White House strategist — which was promptly celebrated by the American Nazi Party and the Ku Klux Klan. Bannon and other possible extremist Trump appointees, such as John Bolton, a neocon who believes the U.S. should “bomb Iran,” and the authoritarian Rudy Giuliani, are now receiving much deserved public scrutiny.

The incoming vice president, Mike Pence, has not elicited the same reaction, instead often painted as the reasonable adult on the ticket, a “counterbalance” to Trump and a “bridge to the establishment.” However, there is every reason to regard him as, if anything, even more terrifying than the president-elect.

Elizabeth Warren Says Mitch McConnell Wont Even Say Hello To Her

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/elizabeth-warren-mitch-mcconnell_us_58f25feae4b0bb9638e45a52?ncid=inblnkushpmg00000009


“I say hello to Mitch every chance I get, and he turns his head.”


Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) has apparently been ignoring Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) since moving to silence her on the Senate floor in February, Warren told The Boston Globe.

McConnell cut Warren off in February as she tried to read a letter from Coretta Scott King during a speech on the Senate floor, explaining her opposition to Jeff Session’s nomination to be attorney general. McConnell invoked a little-used rule that blocks senators “by any form of words impute to another Senator or to other Senators any conduct or motive unworthy or unbecoming a Senator.”

Even though Sessions was eventually confirmed and two months have passed since the incident, the relationship between the two senators still remains frosty.

“I’ve spoken to him, but he has not spoken to me,” Warren told the Globe in an interview published Saturday. “I say hello to Mitch every chance I get, and he turns his head.”


So this is a club alright, and women arent part of it unless they act the way this prick insists they act.

Getting madder by the minute.

So the GOP works with the Russians to propagate propaganda against the American Way

Can we now all acknowledge that if you are a liberal or Democrat and in some cases progressive, you have to not just beat the GOP in an election or for ideas, but you have to compete with and beat Russia.


You see if you look closer, the Russians or Putin and the GOP have a great deal in common, including and especially who their enemies of this world are.

Who did Trump instantly target when he obtained power? Other than the environment, working people, etc?

Gays

Brown people

Muslims

Women


In Russia, where do you think these 4 categories of people are in the hierarchy?

Obamacare: an unheralded success

https://www.bostonglobe.com/opinion/2016/04/21/obamacare-unheralded-success/montTA45UvggSgwA0Myd8K/story.html





Six years after the ACA took effect, it has, perhaps more than any law passed in the previous five decades, narrowed income inequality, saved lives, and reduced financial anxiety. Imagine if the help it provides could be reproduced with paid sick leave and family leave policies, a higher minimum wage, or affordable child care.



This is why Trump wants it gone. It gives credit to the black guy, trump is a racist not to mention this is the black guy who humiliated him at a dinner once. All the reason Trump needs to try and destroy the law and everybody who relies on it.

What a horrible person.

Oh, by the way ASSHOLES

Hillary and Bill Clinton and the Clinton foundation do more for people in need in ONE fucking DAY than any 10,000 random 3rd party voters or non voters or trump family members or trump voters do COMBINED in their fucking lifetimes.


If you didnt vote FOR Hillary and aggressively support her to everyone around you, then you OWN this fucking NIGHTMARE!
