    One great thing about Trump is that he trolls clowns like you into talking about what he said, so all kinds of people who don't follow politics hear about it anyway.  Truly a master of the art.

    The ⁦USDA⁩ will suspend data collection for its honeybee colonies. I’m sure it’s a coincidence that this decision coincides w/ trumps approval to spray sulfoxaflor an insecticide that is "very highly toxic" to bees on more than 16 million acres."

    Licking ice cream is nothing compared to wiping a hamburger bun on your crotch to get period blood on it.

    Still, the only ones on record doing either are blacks.

  26. The indictment and arrest, it go BOOM!1:52 PM

    Jeffrey Epstein has been arrested and is now being held without bail:

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gtBaXrApm3M

    This is not a re-hash of his plea bargain and wrist-slap orchestrated by Robert Mueller.  He is being charged with a host of new crimes, including sex trafficking.

    Epstein dealt in under-age poon.  How many others, both riders on the Lolita Express and not, sampled his wares?  How many have Epstein's victims already testified about?  How many will Epstein throw under the bus to keep himself from being Arkancided?

    How much of Congress and the courts are going to be left after this little episode?  How much of the Democratic party?

    Time to buy more popcorn.  TRUMPSLIDE 2020!

  27. "TRUMPSLIDE 2020!"

    Trump already slid it into a 13 year old and his name is likely to come up during discovery, so yes, popcorn may be appropriate.

  29. Where is the lie?

  31. From Steve Benen:

    "Donald Trump has now been in office for 29 full months -- February 2017 through June 2019 -- and in that time, the economy has created 5.61 million jobs. In the 29 months preceding Trump's presidency -- September 2014 to January 2017 -- the economy created 6.42 million jobs.

    Last month, I heard from a couple of readers who asked what would happen if we looked at the same numbers, but assigned the job totals from January 2017 to Trump, even though Obama was president for most of the month. On balance, I think that paints a misleading picture, but it doesn't change the underlying dynamic: if we applied jobs from January 2017 to Trump and compared the last 30 months to the previous 30 months, job totals still slowed from 6.59 million to 5.87 million.

    The White House, meanwhile, believes we should start the clock for Trump at November 2016 -- the month of his election -- and apply the jobs created during the final months of the Obama era to the current Republican president. But that still doesn't help: if we compare the last 32 months to the previous 32 months, job totals slowed from 7.32 million to 6.25 million.

    The Republican continues to tell the world that he's overseeing the strongest domestic job growth in American history, which is plainly false. What's more, the White House has not yet offered an explanation for why job growth has slowed since Trump took office."

  32. PX: He can ask if he wants, but most of them have already said they wouldn't go. Perhaps they're not too keen on being grabbed by the pussy by an old creep, or getting stomped by secret service for kicking him in the nuts for trying.

  33. "What's more, the White House has not yet offered an explanation for why job growth has slowed since Trump took office."

    He's blaming it on the Fed chair whom he's trying to influence. He wants the rates to be kept low but he doesn't seem to understand that when times are good you raise rates ao you have a card to play when the economy slows. Republicans fail to understand the cyclical nature of economies or they do and just try to milk it for all they can so they can blame the Dems when the results of their actions come around. You know that whole pay off the debt thing while the economy is good. They really don't seem to understand this concept.

  34. It's low rates for Republican administrations and tight money for Democratic ones, same as with deficit hysteria.

    So Fergus has announced that he won't speak to the UK ambassador to the US because he found out the ambassador called him insecure.
    This shit would be funny were it not so fucked up.

  36. Kris Kobach has filed to run for senate in Kansas and misspelled his own first name on the filing papers.
    Perhaps since his crosscheck program didn't always match middle or first names of the voters it purged, he didn't think it was that important.
    Or maybe it was a lame attempt to fool the voters who rejected him for statewide office last year.
