Oooo, we get to do anecdotal evidence now? I want to play!
I went on my annual heavy metal cruise two weeks ago. There were 3,000 metalheads (no kids) on the boat, with people from all over the world (74 different countries). Only about 1/3 of the boat were from the US.
As a joke, one of my friends bought me a shirt with “F*CK TRUMP” (without…[Read more]

I’ll start off with all the aid for women with infant children. Renew the aid every 5 years with an “anchor baby”. You’ll single Mexican mothers with 5 children spanning 25 years.
I’d echo Newbomb’s question about some data around that. I’d wager that’s the exception rather than the norm, but I could be wrong.
Call it my bleeding heart, but I r…[Read more]

Even Fox News is calling him out as a liar.
We’re through the looking glass here people.

And when they repeal the ACA there are people you know and love, as well as people on this very site, who will be unable to get insurance due to pre-existing conditions. My aunt is a cancer survivor. Pre-ACA she was told by one of the few insurance comapnies who would cover her that her out of pocket premium would be upwards of $5000/mo (not per…

Interesting side note: the ACA had many very similar components to the healthcare reform plan that the Heritage Foundation themselves submitted in the mid-90’s.

Yeah, today’s press conference was rather disturbing. He appeared to not know basic information (i.e. what the Congressional Black Caucus was), he berated a reporter asking about anti-semitic incidents (right before telling everyone “I’m the least racist person in the world, believe me”), he blamed the press for ruining his relationship with…[Read more]

This explains so much about what happened last year. I’m rooting for this kid, hard.

Agreed.
Also, hearing a winning President continuing to degrade their opponent 3 months after the election is over is really weird. The election is over and you won, why are you still screaming about Clinton?

It was funny to see him get fact-checked on this in real time during his PC today, and try to stumble his way around it.
Good for Peter Alexander for challenging Trump on his lies. https://t.co/kWi7bgiJnt

Why is Trump so utterly obsessed with his Electoral College victory? He brings it up every chance he gets, typically in completely unrelated discussions. Questions about rising anti-Semitism? Electoral College victory. Questions about the Flynn controversy? Electoral College victory. Questions about ties to Russia? Electoral College…[Read more]

Some employers will take advantage of migrant labor by paying substandard wages with no benefits.
Some? 😉
I’m curious how loud the howling will be if/when the migrant labor force is removed and the costs of, well, everything see a massive increase.

I agree with you on this. It was a stupid move by both of them, and the damage it caused more than offset any potential benefit.
Regarding Sessions, I’d put the chances of him doing the right thing and recusing himself somewhere between “slim” and “none”.

All that said, there is most definitely a crime in the fact that this person (Flynn) was illegally wiretapped without his identity being protected and then leaked to the press. Soooo, something we know happened is that an agency of unelected security bureaucrats illegally wiretapped an American citizen, did not protect his identity or his side of…
