He knew the “national emergency” would get shot down in court immediately (and open the doors to Democrats trying the same later), it was just a bluff.

I still don’t like the idea that the TSA is extorting money from me. “Pay us or we make you take your shoes off.” I feel like I’m rewarding their bad behavior.

I feel like people just do a Control-F and don’t actually read the passages these are from. That is not what the Quran says.

The phrase “Bury me, my Love” in Arabic is more than that. While that’s the literal translation, it means I couldn’t bear to live without you so I’d rather be the one to die first. It’s actually a much more romantic idiom in the original Arabic.

That’s not a spine, that’s cowering in fear. They’re all too afraid to cross Trump, so they keep quiet and do nothing. Even McConnell is hiding from the public.

Can he not keep track of his own lies anymore? He was claiming that the FBI hated Comey, Giulinai was on TV before the eleciton saying the FBI despised Hillary and was pro Trump. Now he’s pretending the FBI is top to bottom aganist him?

Sheesh it’s a list of famous partisan hacks. 

Bari Weiss is a rightwing nutjob zionist. When will NYT give up and can her?

Russia must be cackling with delight, they inserted a virus into the government and his name is Trump. He’s wrecking the country from the inside. This must be what it felt like when the CIA put their puppets in power.

I have a strong credible suspicion that Trump actually had her fly down from DC to the border just to give the appearance of both a crisis and being on top of it. Trump is all about visual aids and TV, so a live remote speech looks good in his mind. 

As someone who had one of those training certificates she did, that’s incorrect. The certificate is only valid if you are working in a residency program under the supervision of a licensed physician. If you get fired, the certificate is worthless because it’s tied to the program you were in. Could she apply for a new…

Incorrect and incorrect.

“New York City has over 40 billionaires. It’s hard for me to feel sympathetic for the millions of people living there on Medicaid knowing those billionaire neighbors exist.”

And what context is that here? They translated the rest of the sentence. Leaving it that ways is trying to “other”ize Muslims or invoke old stereotypes. When we talk about Jewish extremists invoking God does the media conversation bring up the name “Yahweh”?

Something like 96% of med school students are on financial aid. That guy you know isn’t the average. 

We also use inshallah, Mashallah, and Alhamdulilah in converstion and we talk about prophets Isa and Musa, but in all those scenarios the non-Muslim media translates those Arabic words into English. There’s no reason not to translate Allah with it unless the translator believes Allah is different than God. 

She spent years getting into medical school, then 4 years of medical school (with expensive student loans most likely over $200k), then struggling to get into an extremely prestigious residency, only to be fired 6 months in. If you think this won’t affect her quality of life you’re nuts.

Yes. Iran.

Bob Woodward’s book was mouth-open shocking. Fire and Fury was more lurid but less reliable than the former. I shudder to think how much will come out after this administration. And you just know that they will be all full of excuses, “yes I ordered the kids be put into cages but only because Trump threatened to fire…

Republicans would be angry if the economy went into recession, yes, and they would try to blame it on Democrats, yes. But let’s not let them
