POTUS Elect Trump II: Lefties whining and regurgitating fake news

[unofan]

I've lived in ND, NY, FL, and MN.

Word is that the others under consideration for Sec State got eliminated cause they wouldn't go along with Trump's wish to suck up to Russia.

Is that what they are saying up in Maine?? You been hanging with priceless again??

The FBI joins the CIA and the EOP in the great conspiracy to slander Donald's dear friend Vlad.

Didn't Khrushchev claim that he farked with our 1960 election as much as possible, to try and prevent a Nixon victory?

So this is hardly the first time Russia would have interfered in US internal affairs.

When this disaster of a presidency goes *** up, the FBI just wants to make sure all the blame is directed at Russia and not them. Because Trump voters lack either the self-awareness or courage to take responsibility for the fact that regardless of who was selling it, they were the ones dumb enough to buy that ****.

Re: POTUS Elect Trump II: Lefties whining and regurgitating fake news

Sure do love living in a banana republic.

http://www.nytimes.com/2016/12/16/us/pat-mccrory-roy-cooper-north-carolina.html?_r=0

Two major bills were approved by the legislature Friday. One of them, which was quickly signed by the departing Gov. Pat McCrory, a Republican, strips future governors of their power to appoint a majority to the State Board of Elections. The number of board members was expanded from five to eight, with the eight members to be evenly divided between the two major parties.

It also changes the state court system, making it more difficult for the losers of some superior court cases to appeal directly to the Democratic-controlled Supreme Court.

A second bill, which had not been signed by the governor as of Friday afternoon, strips the governor of his ability to name members of the boards of state universities, and it reduces the number of state employees the governor can appoint from 1,500 to 425.

Republicans, who once expanded the number of employees who serve at the governor’s pleasure in an effort to help Mr. McCrory, originally proposed shrinking the number of such workers to 300 in advance of Mr. Cooper’s inauguration. The number was increased in an amendment filed by Mr. Barefoot.

In another change, and one that could have the greatest impact in the near term, the bill makes the governor’s cabinet appointees subject to approval by the State Senate. Republicans currently enjoy veto-proof majorities in the House and the Senate, and the North Carolina governorship is historically a relatively weak office. Cabinet appointments are one of the major ways Mr. Cooper, a moderate Democrat, might be able to influence the direction of the state.

It should be noted that after McCrory was first elected, Republicans in the state legislature passed a bill increasing the number of state employees the governor could appoint from something like 700 to that 1500 number.

Just want to be clear here.....

All y'all are incredulous that W believed intelligence he got that started dumb wars.

All y'all are incredulous that tD questions intelligence he has received that could lead to stupid wars.

Not close.

W manipulated information he didn't like to get us into war. Last year, the CIA intelligence briefing from Oct, 2002 was fully released and 'couldn't prove Saddam was producing chem/bio agents, casting doubts on the extent of the program'. http://www.businessinsider.com/here...intelligence-assessment-on-wmd-in-iraq-2015-3. Its pretty obvious that 'tD' can't manipulate CIA information so he's discrediting it.

The only consistent behavior is in the GOP's total disregard for information, so there's not much doubt they'll manipulate it again to get us into a stupid war.

Correct. Bolded for truth. The GOP doesn't even pretend anymore. They are post-fact.

5mn is right on this one.

BTW, I seem to recall that the head of the UN inspection team was saying prior to the hearings that there was no evidence of WMDs in Iraq and that there was insufficient reason to take military action. But he was pretty silent during and after the hearings. Does anybody else recall this?

I still believe that to W the war was personal. Somebody had tried to kill Daddy and it was the son's duty to kill that cur.

You mean this guy? He famously rebuted the fake WMD argument as it was being made, but he was ignored because hurr hurr foreign / these colors don't run / Remember the Maine!!!!

Even at the CIA everybody except the politicals knew it was all bullsh-t. But the politicals make policy, and the GOP has been in the business of voting on facts ever since trickle down.

That's the guy. Was the press screaming about him as the dog-and-pony show was going on before Congress? I recall being both resigned and disgusted at what we could all see was bound to happen, but I cannot recall who, among the press, was doing his or her job.

Re: POTUS Elect Trump II: Lefties whining and regurgitating fake news

So the CIA had no evidence of the existence of weapons.

Meanwhile, from Hans Blix to the UN security council about a month before the invasion:

Since we arrived in Iraq, we have conducted more than 400 inspections covering more than 300 sites. All inspections were performed without notice, and access was almost always provided promptly. In no case have we seen convincing evidence that the Iraqi side knew in advance that the inspectors were coming. The inspections have taken place throughout Iraq at industrial sites, ammunition depots, research centres, universities, presidential sites, mobile laboratories, private houses, missile production facilities, military camps and agricultural sites. The total number of staff in Iraq now exceeds 250 from 60 countries.

How much, if any, is left of Iraq's weapons of mass destruction and related proscribed items and programmes? So far, UNMOVIC has not found any such weapons, only a small number of empty chemical munitions, which should have been declared and destroyed.

Re: POTUS Elect Trump II: Lefties whining and regurgitating fake news

And this is why Donald Trump is so inherently dangerous:

And no longer can it be assumed that Australia will always pick the United States over China, if forced to choose. When the Lowy Institute for International Policy surveyed Australians two years ago about whether the United States or China was the more important partner for our country, the United States led by 11 percentage points. This year there was a tie. The drift was more marked among Australians under 45, most of whom named China. Nearly half of the Australians surveyed said we should distance ourselves from a United States led by a president like Mr. Trump.
