POTUS 45.5 - Sweden is Under Attack

Re: POTUS 45.5 - Sweden is Under Attack

Congress claiming trans people want to mess with others in the bathroom seems like the worst case of projection I've ever seen.

There was an excellent meme on Facebook yesterday with a blonde woman peaking under the stall door, looking up at the occupant of the throne. The words stated, "I just wanted to make sure you were here to violate my privacy."

I know, right? Funny how Fundies think there's rape fantasies behind everything. It's as if they're saying, "well that's what I would do..."

Like Huckabee saying he would have pretended to be transgender in high school to peek at girls. He doesn't realize the rest of us haven't gotten warped by hanging around with Josh Duggar too long.

Wait. That only happens if the wind is blowing NNE->SSW. Baltimore is more of a target

Clouds here actually tend to move from the NW to the SE. But FD may not be as far west of Frederick as I thought.

We're not inside the primary WMA shock wave is what I know for sure. So... nuke away.

I prefer the one that had a picture of Larry Craig and said something to the effect of "There has been more GOP Legislators Caught Doing This Stuff than Transgender People". :D

They need advice from Cheney on cherry picking.

These scum are going to have a lot of ask for.

This paragraph:

this is an assignment that has caused concern among some administration intelligence officials, who see the White House charge as the politicization of intelligence -- the notion of a conclusion in search of evidence to support it after being blocked by the courts. Still others in the intelligence community disagree with the conclusion and are finding their work disparaged by their own department.

could have been written by any of the lawyers and analysts at Dr. Mrs.' office at DHS, even (especially) the conservative ones. She doesn't talk about the EO cross-talk with the EOP except to say the White House staff working this is spectacularly ill-informed and arrogant.

White House banned nyt, CNN From the press briefing today.

Here's hoping the times goes full throttle

Today’s off-camera gaggle is distinct from the formal on-camera White House Press Briefing, held in the White House’s official briefing room and led by Spicer, which is not scheduled to take place today. It is not unusual to forego the on-camera press briefing on days when POTUS delivers a major speech, as happened this morning at CPAC.

CNN reports it was told by Spicer that the briefing was intended as a much smaller pool-coverage gathering, which typically means one print reporter, one radio reporter, etc. Spicer said he decided to expand the list of invitees as he saw fit, to include conservative-leaning news organizations; Spicer told CNN the intent was not to exclude certain news orgs, the cable news outlet reported.

Nonetheless, the White House Correspondents Association has protested today’s move, and some organizations, including Associated Press and Time magazine, have said they are boycotting, though it’s unclear if they were on the Trump Administrations list of the Invited.

This has to be Spicer's boss putting a stick into the eye of CNN, et al, by expanding the normal pool-coverage not to include them. This should give their reporters more time to go out and find the real story and not just stand and get mind-numbed by blather. Will they do that, or will they just write up how they weren't let into the "gaggle".


Side note: I like the characterization of a "gaggle". That's the word for a group of geese. And any person from the upper Midwest knows what you get from a gaggle of geese: a whole bunch of noisy honkin', and crap everywhere. :D

Here's hoping we see Mellisa McCarthy back on SNL soon. This should be spectacular fodder. The Moana bit was fantastic.

The righties at my work all have a smirking, sophomoric take on sexuality. It's like they were permanently frozen at 15.

I would not be surprised if there was a correlation between religious fundamentalism and sexual assault.

Religious fundamentalism can have a bullying element to it, so I'm not surprised.

I think they've just never had adult conversations and relationships with women as equals. They're trapped on one side by the patronizing Madonna/whore dualism of the Abrahamic religions, and on the other side by their smirking, sniveling relationship to both women's bodies and their own.

They're unhealthy as f-ck.

Re: POTUS 45.5 - Sweden is Under Attack

This is an interesting article.

In 2016, Donald Trump canceled his planned speech at the Conservative Political Action Conference amid rumblings of an audience walkout. Several speakers used their time slots that year to bash Trump, and the crowd vigorously booed each mention of his name.

A year later, a newly inaugurated President Trump and his staffers, advisers, cabinet members, and allies dominated the event.

“By tomorrow, this will be TPAC,” joked White House counselor Kellyanne Conway as she sang her boss’ praises to thousands of attendees.

So how does 2017’s TPAC compare to the decades of CPACs that preceded it?

~ In 2015, the last non-election year, the conference hosted nearly 20 members of Congress as speakers. This year, just a small handful made the pilgrimage.

~ The right-wing publication Breitbart, once so on the fringe that they held a rival conference outside of CPAC in 2013 and 2014 called “The Uninvited,” is now a lead sponsor of the official show, and several of its writers and editors spoke on panels and from the main stage.

~ Aside from Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX), Trump’s vanquished Republican rivals are nowhere to be seen.

~ You couldn’t hear so much of an echo of the thunderous denunciations of Trump and Trumpism common on the stage in years past.

~ Panels held at previous CPACs focused on Republican outreach to African Americans and Latinos were nowhere to be seen.

~ The small-government, free-market, libertarianism that has dominated the conference—which for years crowned either Ron Paul or Rand Paul winners of the CPAC straw poll—was also glaringly absent.

Many long-time conference attendees, including Brooklyn Tea Party Vice President Cartrell Gore, expressed unease about these changes.

“I don’t see the Ron or Rand influence this year,” he lamented. “But it’s alive and well in me.”

Gore, a Naval Reserve member who left the Republican Party many years ago when it became “too liberal for [his] taste,” became visibly uncomfortable when asked if he is a Trump supporter. “I can’t say that. I want to wait and see what happens. I’m not over-optimistic.”

Even some members of CPAC’s leadership broadcast some discomfort about the conference's embrace of Trump. Conference organizer Dan Schneider told the crowd on Thursday: “We are so thankful to be celebrating a president ... who is not named Hillary Clinton.”

That's the best they can come up with. No wonder they restarted the "lock her up!" cheer. That's the glue, now.

They'll be blowing on the embers of that hate for years.
