Unqualified cabinet members and a lying president.

TWEET MELet me start tonight's post by saying congrats to Betsy DeVos. I guess it's more important to be wealthy than smart.

 I also suspect that everyone of those senators that voted for her has gotten a dollar or two from her family at some point.

In case you missed her confirmation hearings, you need to understand that she was probably the most unqualified cabinet nominee in the history of these divided states of America.

Anyway, after watching how this all went down today, I don't want to hear white folks complaining about affirmative action ever again.

Still, as bad as she was, she might be better suited for a cabinet position than Mr. Andrew Puzder. All he did was allegedly beat his wife, and....wait for it....hired an undocumented worker as a housekeeper.

Imagine that for a minute; a labor secretary hiring illegal help. ("We are going to drain the swamp.")     
Then there is the whole domestic violence thing. His wife actually went on the Oprah Winfrey Show in disguise to complain about the abuse. Of course now she is walking it all back. It was just a big misunderstanding.  

"Fierstein’s domestic violence allegations first came to the public eye in 1989 while the couple was divorcing. The Riverfront Times reported that the CEO of fast-food chains Hardee’s and Carl’s Jr had been accused of grabbing, pushing or hitting his then-wife on three separate occasions. In addition to the three alleged incidents, the Riverfront Times also reported the police had been called to the couple’s house at least twice in the 1980s. At the time, Puzder called the allegations “baseless.”

Indeed, Puzder’s dismissal of the accusations was later reiterated by Fierstein. After the domestic violence allegations from the 1980s resurfaced, Fierstein issued a statement through the Republican National Committee calling Puzder “one of the finest men I have ever known.” She added:
Many years ago I impulsively filed for divorce and was counseled to file allegations that I regretted and subsequently withdrew over thirty years ago. Andy is a wonderful father, a great person, and was a good husband."
Ms. Fierstein, you may now cash your check.

Finally, our supreme leader told another big lie today while hosting a group of county sheriffs at the White (again) House.

“The murder rate is the highest it’s been in ... 45 to 47 years,” Trump told a White House gathering of county sheriffs from across the country. “I used to say that in a speech and everybody was surprised, because the press doesn’t tell it like it is.”

Trump has repeatedly claimed crime is worse than the reality. During the campaign, he frequently said crime is out of control. Since his election, he’s said the murder rate is the highest in 45 years. Last month, he falsely said Philadelphia’s murder rate had increased when it actually declined.

Recent FBI data shows the U.S. murder rate near its lowest in decades, with 5 homicides per 100,000 people in 2015. (Data for 2016 hasn’t been released.)

At some point somebody close to this man has to call him out and tell him that he has no clothes. I mean I know that president's misspeak and flat out lie from time to time, but this is getting ridiculous.

Wow, that's over the line. Impeach!

Sean King said...

There were only 271 murders in Philly in 2016, only 4 more than in 2015. That's nothing!

Where does Trump get off worrying about a couple of hundred dead negroes?

If you like your health care plan, you can keep it said...

"I mean I know that president's misspeak and flat out lie from time to time, but this is getting ridiculous."

This morning, when asked what he had for breakfast, Trump said "bacon and eggs".

An ABC investigative team has learned from an anonymous White House staffer that in fact Trump only ate one of his eggs.

He should have said "I had some bacon and an egg. But instead he specifically used the word "eggs", implying that he ate more than one egg, which ABC has learned was not factual.

This misrepresentation dealt not with a side item like toast or hashbrowns, but with arguably the most crucial part of the meal and strikes at the very core of the credibility of this administration.

It seems that Trump didn't realize the he had promoted Steve Bannon, the resident White Nationalist in the regime, into his National Security Council with his recent Executive Order.

The difference between can't read and won't read is what, exactly?

Well, since he said it himself there's a high probability of it being a lie, but I think there's a larger point to be made that since he lies all of the time, freaking out over each lie just plays into the distraction he is putting up while Bannon works on destroying the country.
And of course he's gonna say that crime is getting worse when it's been getting better for decades, he needs people to be terrified enough to support an utter fraud like him out of desperation, or his precious poll numbers will be even worse than what they are: the very worst of any new president since the dawn of modern polling.

DeVos is a good piece of strategy, though. If they destroy the education system there will be more people stupid enough to vote for Republicans, and that's really important to them since we're already majority-minority below the age of seven, and no help for them is on the way.

PilotX said...

Our President gets his information from Alex Jones. That is some scary shit. Now THAT is grounds for impeachment. It's almost like the guy doesn't take the job seriously.
As far as Mrs. DeVos, the one who thinks schools should glorify god. Just look at the awful job she did in Detroit. Seeing that no person in their right mind would then say "yep, we need her to do that nationwide" unless of course you want to destroy public education. Then again maybe that's the plan. Let's look at how many people joined the middle class. 1. Public Education. 2. Affordable college. 3. Unions and 4. Government jobs. Funny, the things that created a middle class here in America are demonized by conservatives. Are they consciously trying to destroy the middle class?

Back in reality, annual terrorism deaths in the U.S. over the last fifteen years are in the double digits (and a large chunk of those were caused by right-wing white-guy scumbags, not only Muslim jihadi scumbags). Illegal immigration has slowed to a trickle. Crime has fallen to the lowest level it's been since the 1960s.

And yet, Trump is here to stop the "carnage."

His fans don't care about the facts and numbers, which don't actually back up Trump's claims of carnage. It's all about the feels to them -- and what they feel is scared of brown people. The orange man is going to beat up the brown people and then everyone will sleep easier at night.

"ISLAMIC TERRORISM ON AMERICAN SOIL IS YUUUUUUGE!!!"

Did Trump even make this claim or is this just another straw-man progressives attribute to him? I mean, barely two weeks in and already Trump is the most hated president in history. For fuck's sake, people on this blog are making fun of his children and calling his wife a prostitute. You people have seriously lost yourselves in the make-believe narrative. But anyway, I guess terrorism on American soil isn't a problem, since every act of Islamic terrorism under Obama was classified as something other than terrorism. LOL Wow! Great way to keep one's record clean.

Sorta like that myth about Obama deporting more people, or Obama helping the economy. Both are bullshit. For deportations, he changed the definition to mean turning people away at the border. So the GOOD people trying to get in can't, while the rapists and murderers sneak across at night. Great job! About what we expected from Obama. His limitations and all. And on jobs, all he did was change the definition of unemployment. About 2/3 of working-age Americans are out of the workforce, 92 MILLION people, which puts REAL unemployment at about 55% nationwide or higher, and y'all allowed him to get away with the shit for 8 years.

"ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION IS GETTING BIGGER AND BIGGER!!!"

Again, see Obama's fake numbers. That's the only way it stays tamped down, and that was deliberate design.

"CRIME IS GETTING WORSE AND WORSE!!!"

Depends on where you're at, and by whom you're surrounded. Crime's going down a bit in white neighborhoods. Black ghettos and Latino shitholes? Ey, not so much. Still can't wear Jordans there. Still can't have nice things. Still can't sit at your table and do homework without risking being shot by moronic thugs who hold their guns sideways to shoot bullets but hold their phones vertically to shoot videos! LMFAO! You can't reach the depths of ghetto stupidity. There is no bottom.

Our illustrious president on Twitter (as usual):

"Any negative polls are fake news, just like the CNN, ABC, NBC polls in the election. Sorry, people want border security and extreme vetting."

People are bugging out about border security and vetting only because you and your shitty party have been lying their asses off about "threats" to scare them silly.

And now, of course, you're lying your ass off about your popularity: Hillary Clinton must have won the popular vote only through voter fraud. The polls must all be bogus. Those pictures of puny crowds at the inauguration must be faked. The increasing numbers of protesters, they must all be paid employees of George Soros (lol).

Yup, everyone is wrong but you, Donald. Because your track record for telling the truth is so stellar. Trustworthy Don, that's what absolutely no one calls you.

Assuming the Trumpish racist nutjob Marine Le Pen does not win the French election, their next president could be this guy, Emmanuel Macron.

"To all Americans who fight for innovation and excellence, you now have a new homeland: France. #ScienceMarch"

Josh said...

Mike, America has the most immigrants out of any nation on the planet. We have an estimated 49 million of them.

Pretty far cry from 11 million. I guess you either (a) pulled that number out of your ass, or (b) copied it verbatim from fake news, who also pulled it out of their ass.

But don't get me wrong. I'm not blaming anyone for reciting this number as gospel. How can anyone know? It's not as if illegal immigrants are signing a guestbook.

The fact is, illegals aren't fucking registering at the border. Some research--more reliable than government's, mind you--puts the number at 20 million illegals alone, which would give America a whopping 60 million immigrants!

Bear Sterns did something that was frankly brilliant when compared to the US Census and Pew. They actually followed the money, like a good detective would! The money sent back is logically directly proportional to the people here, unless one were to assume that 11 million illegals have the earning power of over 20 million. And seeing as they typically work low-wage jobs and are paid under the table, that is exceedingly unlikely.

The only reason people keep regurgitating this 11-million number is to make Obama look good. He's the deity of the left, their diversity hire that did all sorts of great shit in office... like:

























































































































I mean, wow!

James Bold said...

11 million illegals is a figure that's been around since the early GWB administration, if memory serves.  It's obviously a gross undercount today, if it wasn't already when it was first published.

11 million doesn't count the US-born and putatively-citizen children of the illegals.

Gotta admit, Trump and Bannon are playing the media like a fiddle.
From Crooks and Liars:

"So the White House makes a ridiculous claim:

"The Media doesn't cover terror attacks."

The media scrambles to prove that they DO cover terror attacks including pulling footage...of them covering terror attacks.

And the public sees more coverage of, and this is important, the terror attacks that the White House has listed (all Islamic terror, no domestic white male shooters because that's not the agenda.).

And the White House wins. "See? America's in the crosshairs of radical Islamic terror (tm)!"

And the LIE the White House told about the news coverage goes right down the memory hole because the White House is now on to the next outrageous lie."

President Bannon would make Roy Cohn proud.

Drumpf called Liar Flynn at 3 am to ask if a strong dollar is good for the economy or a weak dollar. Flynn says his area of expertise is lying about HRC and sex rings. Drumpf then ordered a half dozen sex rings for his daughter-Ididher, no that wasn't right. Iwannadoher? Iwilldoher? Ihavedoneher? One of them any way.

Lena DumDum: I Lost Weight Because of Trump :

"Donald Trump became president and I stopped being able to eat food," she told Stern after he complimented her look. "Everyone's been asking like, 'What have you been doing?' And I'm like, 'Try soul-crushing pain and devastation and hopelessness and you, too, will lose weight.'"

The actress, who was on hand to promote the upcoming sixth and final season of Girls, has not been shy about her dislike for the President, and apparently, the feeling is mutual.

"He said I was a B-list actor with no mojo," Dunham told Stern..
.

Fat women need to be shamed. It's for their own good. Trump told her that she had no worth, and she repsonded.

Now even Lena Dunham is winning. I told you we would all benefit from Trump being President.

Fake News Update said...

Trump administration seen as more truthful than news media:

"The Trump administration is more trusted than the news media among voters, according to a new Emerson College poll.

The administration is considered truthful by 49 percent of registered voters and untruthful by 48 percent.

But the news media is less trusted than the administration, with 53 percent calling it untruthful and just 39 percent finding it honest.

The numbers split along party lines, with nearly 9 in 10 Republicans saying the Trump administration is truthful, compared with more than 3 in 4 Democrats who say the opposite.

The Emerson poll found that 69 percent of Democrats think the news media is truthful while 91 percent of Republicans consider the Fourth Estate untruthful."


This shows why popularity polls are meaningless, as they really show nothing other than the partisan divide. Breaking News: Republicans like Trump, Democrats hate him!

It also shows that the media highly partisan toward the Democrats.

And I see Spicer is playing the patriot card. If you don't agree the clusterfuck in Yemen was the best war ever, you are disrespecting the Seal that died and prolly shouldn't have.

Elizabeth Warren Told to Shut the Fuck Up By Senate for Violating Rule Against Personally Attacking a Fellow Senator:

Sen. Warren was interrupted before being able to finish reading [Coretta Scott] King's letter and statement. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell invoked Rule 19 (which establishes rules for floor debate so as to keep the discourse civil), in particular, the bit prohibiting Senators from imputing the motives of other Senators from the floor.

Elizabeth Warren's claims are asinine. She could have read from a different letter (the one from Alfred Turner's son), if she weren't a hyperpartisan leftwing lightweight chokker who enjoys stealing jobs from American Indians.

Congress has the power to force Drumpf to release his tax returns if they cared.

Elizabeth Warren was well within her rights to read into the record the letter fro Ms King. McCShithead and wingnuts just freaked out again because a woman was in their grille and they don't appreciate it. Sessions was racist enough to not be given a federal judgeship and I can guarantee you he hasn't gotten any better.

Just more LOL fodder from progressive neo-Marxists who would think before they spoke if capable.

There were no immigrants to America before it was America. They were settlers. They created the nation. Some people came after as immigrants. But settlers, and, yes, slaves, are native AMERICANS, as there was no America until which point they were already on land and created, from literal dirt, a nation. That's about 2/3 America's population descendant directly from its true native sons and daughters.

I understand revisionist historians, living it up in the first-world west, want to act some kind of indignant about land grabs and conquering lands and staking one's claim. But that's how it was. It happened. Evil waycis whitey was pretty fucking good at it. It's why we're speaking on the Internet. It's why Africa hasn't gone extinct from disease.

The land was just a chunk of land across the sea. The settlers settled and built. A war was fought in which we defeated the authoritarian British. Then, and only then, was there an America. Prior to that, it was a bunch of plantations and cabins. Prior to that, it was a bunch of teepees and warring savages of the strong tribes killing the weak to steal their food, rape their women and scalp their men.

"Get with the program buddy. It's called misogyny."

Gotta lot to learn about Mr. Cuckstrong. Chief among the items: He's a moron. So when selectively letting loose the indignation from that wagging finger, keep in mind that Lance is graded on a curve.

Judge Robart’s veto of Trump’s travel ban notwithstanding, there is not the slightest question but that the president, in his sole discretion, can choose to admit or exclude any foreigners he likes, based on “the interests of the United States.”

The Clinton administration used the executive branch’s broad power over immigration to send a 6-year-old boy back to a communist dictatorship. The courts were completely powerless to stop him.

The Obama administration’s immigration policy was to ensure that millions of poverty-stricken foreigners would come here and help turn our country into a Mexican version of Pakistan.

When Arizona merely tried to enforce the federal immigration laws being ignored by the Obama administration, the entire media erupted in rage at this incursion into the majestic power of the president over immigration. They said it was like living in Nazi Germany!

A president’s policy choice to ignore immigration laws supersedes a state’s right to enforce them.

The court conceded that hundreds of thousands of illegal aliens were arrested in Arizona each year, that they were responsible for “a disproportionate share of serious crime,” and that illegals constituted nearly 6 percent of Arizona’s population.

But Arizona was powerless to enforce laws on the books–if those laws happened to be about immigration. The president’s authority over immigration is absolute and exclusive, as part of his authority over foreign policy.

You can't tell these African Americans anything. Look how the label themselves. They don't feel like this is their country. They deliberately separate themselves by using the term African American and don't even realize it.then wonder why others don't respect or care about them. We black Americans have nowhere else to go when our country is jacked all to hell. No matter the history, I have blood sweat and tears in this land and I am proud to be an American. Where some of my ancestors slaves? Yes Where some slave owners? Yes. Is that shit in the past to never be changed? Yes. It's time for Americans who happen to be black to put all that shit behind us and get on with making our communities better. Not siding with foreign people who have no right to come into this country. People from all over talk so much shit, but kill them selves to get here. And they take from our communities. They don't go to rich area and their schools. They come to ours. Since the 60s our communities have been getting worse. And it's not all our fault. A lot of people who are not like us came here and brought their dysfunction and fucked up way of life from their home country with them. All cultures are not the same or equal. If they were all countries would be equal. Open your eyes people. Think for yourself. If you can trace your family here before 1965 you are a part of the history of this country and you should not let what our ancestors went through be for nothing. No matter how it happened, they did help build this country and are a big part of its history.
