So this week we’ve threatened to invade Iran and Mexico… Great.

Apparently they’re denying the Mexico story.

I can’t help but feel we’re just being trolled.

I think that Flynn also mentioned Yemen…

Edit: don’t forget that we are going to invade Chicago as well.

At this point, doesn’t he realize there isn’t much Yemen to invade? The Saudis have been pounding the resistance there for the past few years and we’ve been droning the place for longer. What was once a relatively modern, secular, socialist state, is in fucking shambles.

This might be the most unhumanitarian administration we’ve had since Nixon…

At least they are talking to the Pentagon…

The announcement was not accompanied by any change in the US military stance in the region, nor any immediate additional deployments.

“We saw the statement as well,” said a spokesman for US central command, which runs operations in the Middle East. “This is still at the policy level, and we are waiting for something to come down the line. We have not been asked to change anything operationally in the region.”

The Pentagon was informed before the announcement and the defense secretary, James Mattis, prevailed upon Flynn to soften his language about Iran from an earlier version. At the time of the Flynn’s statement, Mattis was en route to Asia for an official visit to Japan and South Korea.

I’m assuming that he didn’t threaten to invade at least…
No ‘G’day, mate’: On call with Australian prime minister, Trump badgers and brags - The Washington Post

It should have been one of the most congenial calls for the new commander in chief — a conversation with the leader of Australia, one of America’s staunchest allies, at the end of a triumphant week.

Instead, President Trump blasted Australian Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull over a refu­gee agreement and boasted about the magnitude of his electoral college win, according to senior U.S. officials briefed on the Saturday exchange. Then, 25 minutes into what was expected to be an hour-long call, Trump abruptly ended it.

At one point Trump informed Turnbull that he had spoken with four other world leaders that day — including Russian President Vladi­mir Putin — and that, “This was the worst call by far.”

Time for Repubs to take @stefanjones’ suggestion to implement an Amendment 25 / Section 5 action to remove Trump, 'cause he is batshit nutz

Edit: this got a laugh from me…

Do they define “religious” as only including christians?

Of course not! That would be totally unconstitutional!

This is about freedom!

Technically, no.

Practically, yes.

(c) The Secretary of the Treasury shall ensure that the Department of the Treasury shall not impose any tax or tax penalty, delay or deny tax-exempt status, or disallow tax deductions made under 26 U.S.C.501(c)(3) or otherwise make unavailable or deny any tax benefit to any person, synagogue, house of worship or other religious organization,

(1) on the basis of such person or organization speaking on moral or political issues from a religious perspective where religious speech of similar character has consistent with law, not ordinarily been treated as an intervention in a political campaign by the Department of the Treasury, or
(2) on the basis that such person or organization believes, speaks, or acts (or declines to act) in accordance with the belief that marriage is or should be recognized as the union of one man and one woman, sexual relations are properly reserved for such a marriage, male and female and their equivalents refer to an individual’s immutable biological sex as objectively determined by anatomy, physiology, or genetics at or before birth, and that human life begins at conception and merits protection at all stages of life.

Because those are totally religiously neutral criteria.

Sounds like they are supporting sharia law of the 'mur’can taliban flavor, thus this should not apply in many US States.
