Wendy's AND McDoanlds? In the same meal?

Man, Trump really is rich.

It's kind of eerie to see stacks of Mickey D products with gold chandeliers, silver trays on a $100,000 Cuban mahogany Federalist extra long antique table. It's kind of a badass populist statement Trump is making here...

This being said, and at the risk of outing myself as a blue state bourge, there is a Five Guys literally 3 blocks from the White House, I mean cold Big Macs are pretty gross.

You know who REALLY needs to get deported isn't the Mexicans, it's those cameramen.
You're starting a visual of Donald Trump in the White House banquet room, wildly grinning behind a table laden with Big Macs and Wendy's chicken nuggets beneath golden chandeliers. It's easily the most remarkable, unbelievable image of the 21st century.

AND YOU CAN'T TAKE A PICTURE WITHOUT SOMEBODY ELSE'S CAMERA IN THE SHOT?

Off to Mexico with you, buddy. I don't care if you were born in New Hampshire. You're not welcome in our country anymore.

ABC’s Karl: ‘Zero Evidence’ that Trump or Campaign Colluded with Russians

Monday on ABC’s “The View,” ABC News chief Washington correspondent Jonathan Karl said there has been “zero evidence” on “the central question of did Donald Trump or anybody in his campaign coordinate or collude with the Russians.”

Karl said, “We are now just, I believe, weeks away from getting a final report from Robert Mueller, and there is so much anticipation, so much speculation about what he is going to show. He’s been looking into, you know, this whole range of issues. And I am led to believe by people who have interacted with the special counsel that we should be prepared for him to release a report that is anti-climactic.”

He continued, “He’s already gotten more than 30 indictments, the president’s inner circle, his campaign chairman convicted, his national security adviser indicted, his personal lawyer. You know, so much has already been there. But on the central question of did Donald Trump or anybody in his campaign coordinate or collude with the Russians in their effort to meddle in the 2016 campaign, we have seen zero evidence of that.”

Agree its a populist statement, kind of Ghetto Fabulous stuff. Trump took what he was initially mocked about and is now making it cool. The left wing media can try to mock this, but its feel good story with the Clemoson NCAA Champs. Plays to his base. Hometown Championship football parties always have burgers and pizza.

Trump choice to replace Kavanaugh's old seat wrote articles pointing blame at women for date rape

[Image: 181113144919-neomi-rao---1-exlarge-169.jpg]

Quote:Neomi Rao, President Donald Trump's choice to take the DC Circuit seat vacated by Justice Brett Kavanaugh, has a history of controversial writings, including authoring articles attributing some blame to women for being raped under the influence of alcohol.

The findings from the progressive advocacy group Alliance for Justice came as Rao's nomination continues to await further consideration in the Senate, several months removed from Kavanaugh's successful but fraught confirmation to the Supreme Court, a controversy largely defined by allegations of sexual misconduct against women. Kavanaugh denied the claims.

The group's findings came from articles she wrote in the 1990s at a handful of outlets at Yale University and the Washington Times just before and after her college graduation. The topics include writings raising questions about alcohol and sexual consent along with other comments on gender and race.

"Unless someone made her drinks undetectably strong or forced them down her throat, a woman, like a man, decides when and how much to drink. And if she drinks to the point where she can no longer choose, well, getting to that point was part of her choice," read a 1994 article titled "Shades of Gray."

The same article said, "A man who rapes a drunk girl should be prosecuted. At the same time, a good way to avoid a potential date rape is to stay reasonably sober."


A 1993 article titled "The Feminist Dilemma" said, "Women believe falsely that they should be able to go anywhere with anyone."

"Although I am certainly not arguing that date rape victims ask for it, when playing the modern dating game women have to understand and accept the consequences of their sexuality," the article read. "Some feminists chant that women should be free to wear short skirts or bright lipstick, but true sexual signals lie beyond these blatant signs."

In another article titled "How the diversity game is played," Rao lambasted "multiculturalists."


"Underneath their touchy-feely talk of tolerance, they seek to undermine American culture," the article read. "They argue that culture, society and politics have been defined -- and presumably defiled -- by white, male heterosexuals hostile to their way of life. For example, homosexuals want to redefine marriage and parenthood; feminists in women's studies programs want to replace so-called male rationality with more sensitive responses common to womyn. It may be kinder and gentler, but can you build a bridge with it?"

The White House and Justice Department did not return requests for comment from CNN.

BuzzFeed News was first to report on the Alliance for Justice's findings, and noted that similar language on race within the article review was part of Trump's unsuccessful nomination of Ryan Bounds to the 9th Circuit. BuzzFeed also noted that in a 1994 article, Rao referred to gay rights as a "trendy" political movement. In its report on Rao's writings, Mother Jones noted that in 1992, she dismissed the greenhouse effect, depletion of the ozone layer and acid rain as "the three major environmental boogeymen."

In a statement to BuzzFeed, Kurri Kupec, a spokeswoman for the Department of Justice, defended Rao.

"Neomi Rao is a renowned constitutional and administrative law expert. That is why the President nominated her to the D.C. Circuit. The views she expressed a quarter century ago as a college student writing for her student newspaper were intentionally provocative, designed to raise questions and push back against liberal elitism that dominated her campus at the time," Kupec said to BuzzFeed. "More than two decades later, her views can be found in her numerous academic articles and speeches. We are confident Ms. Rao will make an exemplary judge on the D.C Circuit."

Nan Aron, president of the Alliance for Justice, told CNN that she thought Rao's views were "completely disqualifying" for a lifetime appointment to such a key judicial post and that the views expressed in their review "demonstrate a real hostility to the very individuals and groups that would appear before her on the court."

Rao joined the Trump administration as administrator of the Office of Information of Regulatory Affairs within the White House Office of Management and Budget, and with the change in Congress at the start of the new year, it is up to Trump whether to send her nomination back to the Senate.

Trump really loves his Indians. She said nothing wrong...

Lindsey Graham has been a little too supportive of the Wall and Trump lately so it's time to try to shut him up. Of course the Russians are involved...


Quote:Jon Cooper, chairman of the Democratic Coalition, claimed on Sunday that an unnamed Republican thinks Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) is “being blackmailed” by President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin over something related to a “serious sexual kink.” He also said Graham’s “sexual orientation” is “an open secret.”

https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2019/...xual-kink/


Jon is trying his version of Trump's shitlord tweets, and failing miserably.

You talk about suffering from Trump derangement syndrome, and "muh Russia!!!" syndrome. I hope we see more of the shitlording Lindsay Graham.

And you know, there is nothing worse than cold fast food. THey should have those fast food burgers wrapped up and under a hot lamp. Same for the fries. Instead they are out on a table with nothing keeping them warmed up

I don't think Trump and Betsy Devos get enough credit for ending the "Dear Colleague" Obama rules on stopping campus assaults aka ending due process in colleges. Its something that flew under the radar and even his supporters dont mention it. I have no idea if it turned out the way it did (the msm raging that Devos is "ending protections for women in campuses" is a good sign) but Pres Trump and Devos deserve credit (I know she is hated for Common Core or something).

Honestly there are times when I get tired of Trump with all the unforced eras, not f-ing hiring people loyal to him, Jared and Ivanka, seemingly not giving a crap about his supporters being beaten up by antifa and a ton of other things but I think a lot of subtle good things he does gets underappreciated. I do not regret voting for him.

Hey fellas, sorry I haven't been posting more, lots to talk about someday (hopefully soon).

But right now, I've received this email this morning, from the special WH list I am on, with a link to call into the WH and speak to officials about the wall:

http://ems9.intellor.com/?do=register&t=1&p=900517

It's at 2:30pm EST. I am not sure I can make any calls, but perhaps some here would be interested in talking.

Give them encouragement, advice, whatever. I personally want them to shift the focus away from getting money for the wall, and making the emphasis on changing the legal framework for immigration since without good laws, the wall is just a piece of metal that no one will be allowed to defend.

ChicagoFire · 2019-01-15 10:08:00 · #88673
I'm on the same boat too. Are there things that President Trump does that bewilders me? Yes. Javanka, globalist appointments like Mattas, and Soros and Clinton still running free. Obama set the standard on calling justice before the proceedings, so why can't President Trump harangue the nation about Antifa in that same manner? Part of it is himself (don't blame him too much as he is only fighting an entire establishment out to get him) and part of it is a stubborn Congress that continues to drag its feet. We still have to sic that bear and that liver eating eagle out for Paul Ryan.

If I were to grade him as of now with a plus minus scale:
Domestically: B. What will kill him is if he makes an Obamacare like blunder. Impeachment hearings will only make him more popular. Getting under liberals' skin in icing on the cake and it makes the general population question the narrative the media hammers.

Foreign policy: A. Much better than Obama and Bush and as of now we're not balls deep in another middle east quagmire. God forbid we fight Russia.

Overall: B+, could go down as an all time great and with his ego that has to be in the back of his mind.

With that being said, I'd vote for him again in a heartbeat. Some of the older people I have talked to said just in 2 years he's as good if not even better than Reagan.

Based on some of his statements, he seems to be waiting for the DACA stuff to be struck down by the Supreme court. He said they were close to a deal until the liberal courts decided he couldn't rescind a executive order and the Dems walked at that point.

Now you got Kushner and Graham basically giving that away for the border wall funding. They do that and Trump has no leverage to get chain migration and visa lotteries stopped.

Trump should put the American military on the border with a significant number. The basic idea would be to use the extra personal to catch drug shipments going across the border. The amount of drugs crossing the border every day is massive. Everytime a big drug shipment is caught, Trump could advertise the hell out of it. This would give concrete proof why the wall is necessary, and be popular with the public. It would also bankrupt numerous Democratic politicians and their swamp rat donors who live off the drug trade. It would be a proactive and not passive response.

Quote:Online gambling in US illegal: DOJ

The U.S. Justice Department now says all online gambling is illegal, reversing its 2011 position that only internet-based sports betting was against the law. The new stance says the department’s previous position was a misinterpretation of the 1961 Wire Act. The position is likely to be tested in court and cause turbulence in the online gambling industry. Sheldon Adelson, a billionaire casino executive, backed a coalition asking the Justice Department to reconsider its 2011 opinion.

I'm glad the DOJ has it's priorities straight keeping Adelson's casino profits high instead of going after the traitors in this country.

It's ridiculous that in the "Land of the Free" you can't even spend your hard-earned money how you want.

Of course, playing any state lottery is perfectly acceptable where the government takes 60% juice before announcing winners and then takes 60% of any winnings in taxes.

I used to be a high stakes online poker player before the feds shut everything down. I decided to stay in school instead of leave the country and I'm still bitter about "what could have been". There was rumblings that the government was going to legalize a bunch of online gambling formats, but they ended up just getting stricter.

O well.
