This isn't a surprise to me, but Trump's administration is putting public relations above public health.

"White House, EPA headed off chemical pollution study

The intervention by Scott Pruitt’s aides came after one White House official warned the findings would cause a ‘public relations nightmare.'"

Trump apparently bragged that our F18's took out 100 to 300 Russians in Syria.

Now, the Russians have troops in the area, we have troops in the area.

What do you think the reaction would be here to Putin bragging that his jets took out 100 to 300 Americans?

These gov workers that stay for their entire career, that lie and cover up lies, need to be held responsible for some of the cya that they do in their positions, that cause a great deal of harm. Regardless of what party they support.

Thanks for making it easy with your tagline.

Donald Trump is a fucking liar


To clarify the rules, even masked swearing is not above the rules. I admit I do it from time to time, but it is done sparingly to quote others or to heavily emphasize something. The above is just egregious.

Why I would like us to turn our backs on Syria.

We bombed Syria because they "killed their own people."

McVeigh did the same to us for the same thing.

Though the real idea is probably to prolong the chaos, bout our and the Russians benefit.

Q: Can you just give us the flavor of what the letter said?
A: It was a very interesting letter.

8 minutes later.....
Q: (regarding the letter) Did you send anything back?
A: No I didn't, I haven't seen the letter yet.

I guess someone must have told him it was an interesting letter.

I'm quite positive the Secret Service would run tests on the envelope or, at the very minimum, X-Ray it, before it was allowed to be handed to POTUS - perhaps they gave POTUS a head's up on what was contained therein - perhaps not - just my theory

I read fewer than 10 Eagles players were going to the White House so it was cancelled. What's the big deal, Trump just says they all showed up, like he claims a big crowd at inauguration. Why worry about the truth now?
You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really?

I guess he could use a teleprompter, possibly with a bouncy-ball over the words, for patriotic song lyrics
