I'm not convinced that's anywhere near accurate. A quick look at Trump's jumped up nobody appointments reveals a who's who of unstable personalities and promises one spectacular flameout after the next.

Oh, I know that, and I agree. Humor is just a coping mechanism to ride out the inevitable storm. Any way you look at it the ride ahead is rocky for as far as the eye can see. Hold on, let go and keep a sense of humor whenever possible.

What political agenda would that be?  Despising Bush for the Iraq war...Abu Ghraib...turning America into a police state since 9/11?  Fuck Barry Soweto as well. IRS targeting groups with differing views, race-baiting and NOT ONE GODDAMN BANKSTER IN JAIL! Barry was a fucking neocon...it isn't alt-right...it's an alt-universe. 

Denying reality...seriously?  Useful idiots (most recent example women march) really believe their own narrative and stopped worrying about the things that really matter like deficits, endless war, porous borders, Constitutional rights...oh, and most recently reported that $20k in regulatory cost burden for each worker in the U.S.   

I didn't vote Trump BUT he has all the right enemies. Looking at many of those lined up against him makes me a fan.  Barry might have been the "hope" but after 72 hrs at "the desk" it's looking like Trump will be the "change".

TODAY 11am: Trump signs executive order; White House schedule  provide no details on what order may entail.

Place your bets bitchez

I have no idea, and at this point I don't care. I only know that you are willing to accept process errors so significant and fundamental that, for me, it negates the significance of anything else you might say or think.

I have nothing personal against you, and you might be, taken as a whole, a fine fellow. But your political thinking is infantile.

Got this from a friend in Ohio.  I guess they didn't all vote for Trump.

The 15 Warnings Signs of Impending Tyranny MONDAY, JANUARY 2, 2017 As tyrants take control of democracies, they typically:

1.  Exaggerate their mandate to govern – claiming, for example, that they won an election by a landslide even after losing the popular vote.

2.  Repeatedly claim massive voter fraud in the absence of any evidence, in order to restrict voting in subsequent elections.

3.  Call anyone who opposes them “enemies.”

4.  Turn the public against journalists or media outlets that criticize them, calling them “deceitful” and “scum.”

5.  Hold few if any press conferences, preferring to communicate with the public directly through mass rallies and unfiltered statements.

6.  Tell the public big lies, causing them to doubt the truth and to believe fictions that support the tyrants’ goals.

7.  Blame economic stresses on immigrants or racial or religious minorities, and foment public bias and even violence against them.

8.  Attribute acts of domestic violence to “enemies within,” and use such events as excuses to beef up internal security and limit civil liberties.

9.  Threaten mass deportations, registries of religious minorities, and the banning of refugees.

10. Seek to eliminate or reduce the influence of competing centers of power, such as labor unions and opposition parties.

11. Appoint family members to high positions of authority

12. Surround themselves with their own personal security force rather than a security detail accountable to the public.

13. Put generals into top civilian posts               

14. Make personal alliances with foreign dictators.

15. Draw no distinction between personal property and public property, profiteering from their public office.

Consider yourself warned.

High-Street denizen outed!   

But which of you has the double alias...Em...Smudge...?



Apologies, story sourced from one of those alt-right fake media sites.
Seems "trusted" MSM sources are still sitting on their pencils or working how to spin. 

Kidding aside, good friends with parents of agent seated behind the Obamas. 
Yes, she's from AK.  No longer with the Service.  Will be interesting to get that perspective. 
BTW: Now making good $$ protecting highest paid female CEO as she circles the globe making arms deals.  Murica.

Until recently, I thought Smudge might be Dusty, but that was mostly because Dusty had been absent for a while, and because of a notion that they had similar sensibilities (or at least might have).  It turns out I am not me, and he is not him.

Not that I don't like a bit of mystery, but the truth is easily uncovered. Choad knows because he more or less invited me over from another forum where I was a regular, where choad occasionally posted and where we got to know each other over the course of the last couple of years.

Either that or I'm actually TWO women, at least one of whom is named Debbie.

I'd fuck the prettier one.  Sorry, Debbie (maybe)

Say whaaaaaaaaat!?!?!?

Trump warned his Mexican counterpart he'll dispatch General Pershing to punish "bad beaners down there" unless the Mexican military does more to control them, according to The Associated Press.

Violent protests at free-speech bastion UC Berkeley are being blamed on "external agitators" so the university police forces don't have to deal with them.

Several injuries have been reported and at least four banks have been vandalized after demonstrators marched away from the scene of a violent protest at the canceled speaking event by controversial far-right writer and speaker Yiannopoulos on the University of California at Berkeley campus.

If those are college students, then they deserve to be shot by the Ohio National Guard.

Irony

1964: Berkeley students march to demand free speech.

2017: Berkeley students riot to deny free speech.

There is usually a better way to deal with a flaming queen attention whore.

Finally, America truly is first. Everyone can agree on that. So rare to have such consensus in this day and age.

It's not bias if it's true.  Unfortunately, President Trump is not a fascist, he's an oligarch.  The vermin he brought with him into the White House are the fascists.

It's interesting though that many of his appointments are distinctly NOT career politicians and are unlikely to stay in those roles for more than a few years.  In many ways he truly is "draining the swamp", I don't approve of his methods but that swamp is long over due for a good draining...

Johnny_Rotten wrote:

That sentiment is understandable, to see something other than career politicians carrying on business as usual.

But you are delusional if you think what is happening is draining the swamp. This is giving it away on a stick.  You don't put an oligarchy with endemic cronyism and nepotism in charge to drain anything short of a gilded 14 caret marbelized tub stopper at the top of your Manhattan tower.

Unless you'd really like to emulate a  Russian oligarchy. In that case it doesn't even matter to even bother  promises to the people that the trains will run on time.

My sentiments exactly, JR.

"Change for change sake", and "It can't get any worse than it already is." are the slogans of someone who hasn't lived much, or at least hasn't learned much yet.
