Quelle surprise.
Those poor oppressed Falwell U gradsā¦
God forbid any holiday or event (no matter how non-partisan) not manage to become a campaign rally for himself. He somehow managed to politicize the annual WH Easter egg roll, FFS.
Championed by Landon āTuckerā Davis, an Interior Department official who used to represent the stateās coal industry, a 2017 directive that paved the way for mine permits illustrates how environmental rollbacks enacted at the start of the administration are reshaping the nationās landscape in ways that could harm threatened species.
Davis also questioned other department efforts to monitor miningās impacts. Explaining why it had abruptly canceled a study into coal miningās effects on the health of nearby residents, he said, āScience was a Democrat thing,ā according to notes by the Interior Departmentās Office of Inspector General.
Science was a Democrat thing.
Excuse me, I need to go put my head in a bucket of ice water for about an hour.
āBut heās draining the swamp!ā
Iām so fucking sick of this shit. All this administration seems capable of doing is tearing shit down. Over and over again.
James Comey Called Donald Trump a āChronic Liarā on National TV and Yāallās Little āPresidentā Is Pissed
ETA because of max-2-posts-in-a-row rule:
Bannonās agenda in a nutshell.
I thought Bannonās agenda had to do with leading an army of libertarian Xtian dominionists against the forces of secular humanism?
Youāre saying that all along his goal has been to turn me into a heavily armed conspiracy theorist? Like heās the dissipated, alcoholic evil emperor and Iām a highly credulous, Semitic Luke Skywalker?
That fucking guy. Why am I always the last one to know? There was no need for all this foolishness with a President Trump or a Justice Kavanaugh, the world never had to know Anthony Scaramucci at all. Just pick up the fucking phone, Steve, and clue me in.
The last thing Iām worried about is Comeyās integrity dick measuring game with other republicans. The man is one of the single most influential people on the 2016 election and either through incompetence (or more likely intentionally) kept chumming the conspiracy waters.
At this point, I have to assume he is basking in the spotlight he has been given. There is no reason for him to be showing up all over the news for two fucking years otherwise.
Good thing I picked up that new PS4 controller yesterday before I had to pay out of the ass for it
The new tariffs are covering a bunch of new consumer goods (luggage, backpacks, baseball gloves, bamboo furniture, sailboats, motorboats, canoes and parking meters) but mostly all remaining industrial products. The next wave they havenāt implemented yet will be all consumer electronics, which is the only big thing left that hasnāt been taxed. The mere threat of it is making tech and computer stocks tank.
Whatās funny is old clown shoes wonāt even give the food away to the poor of this country cause you know thatās socialism despite the fact heās willing to subsidize farmers regardless. Heās like the best advertisement for socialism ever since he canāt stop being so obviously greedy and ignorant.
So the exact same people who were advising Mao, then.
Nobody realized he was using that as an analogy for ācausing ecological disastersā.
I remember a story I read a long time ago about a country under despotic rule where poor ex-farmers eating the rats that were eating the cash crops that were rotting in the silos guarded by the men with guns. Capitalism!
The āTā word gets dropped:
Lots of rumors are going to be flying around in the next few days but, this one suggesting that China might, might go ānuclearā with US Treasuries is fucking scary.
Sure hope trumpās team of TV finance genius know what they are doingā¦ /XLs
That would potentially fuck us up royally. Only thing is, it would probably take their economy down with it, so maybe sanity wins out in the end? These days that is asking a lot.
It really is the nuclear option, so Iām viewing this as sabre rattling designed to make 45ās advisors and handlers literally shit their pants.
