Burning Turning for Secretary of State?

If integrity is doing the right thing when no one is watching, than values are the things that you hold dear and support even when it is inconvenient. Otherwise, they are not values. They’re just.....platitudes.

Gotta line those coffers.

His entire presidency is and will continue to be little more than a money laundering scheme. He’s barely even hinding it, anymore. And, maybe that would be such a bad thing...you know, for when the trial happens.

Because Britain has never had a black prime minister? It was obvious all along that the completely disproportionate outrage about the ACA wasn’t just about SOSHERLIZZUM. Now nobody even pretends. They hate the program because they hate him, and they hate him because he’s (half) black. Obamacare must go because it’s…

Based on 2016 with an abusive, racist, ignorant old man winning an election (that he even got 25% of the popular vote is beyond my comprehension), they KNOW we are stupid, tired, and divided.

Their problems are always caused by outsiders, others, etc. They never understand that they’re the ones responsible for this shit by continuing to vote for the very politicians who cause it (under the guise of “Gods, Guns, and Grits” or some shit like that).

That kind of logic and humanity is utterly lost on this administration. But it was a joy to read.

Our hypocrisy, and our inability to finish a task/short attention span after we destroy an often admittedly less-than-great system and leave chaos in its place. Mission accomplished Team America!

Yeah, everybody’s focused on all the bomb dropping and wars but what the US really makes a point of doing and for which people (used to) have enormous love for the US was our use of soft power and all the money and people we we’d send- sometimes without really any political benefit at all- to help places that needed…

Or you could look at it like “Trump just wants carte blanche to do whatever business he wants with any foreign country no matter how awful that country is”

Erdogen and Duterte have both consolidated dictatorial powers in the last year, while the US State Dept. had been trying to exercise some moderating influence (under Obama/Kerry). But they both just happen to have major Trump properties (in Istanbul and Manila, respectively). Coincidence? I think not.

And Congress members and staff are exempt from all of the changes. Do they think they can keep that little gem a secret?

You know, I had an argument with an in-law a few weeks back about healthcare and politics in general. It got... ugly. He’s of the mind that politics and government don’t really effect our day to day life so he’s fairly aloof and uncaring about it but when it came to ACA he went ballistic. As he raised his voice louder…

Their black hearts cares not for poor, sick, women or even healthy folks. Money and power fuels their horrible souls. Its so incredibly busy at the hospital where I work, people trying to get what help they can get before they lose their insurance. Makes me so angry.

The problem is, we ARE stupid. An election-winning percentage of our country are impossibly dumb. They are so scared of gay and non-white people that many of them will literally wind up sacrificing years of their own lives to make sure those groups are oppressed.

But that’s different, because you’re talking about something people didn’t really have in the first place. It’s way, way easier for the GOP to weasel out of that, especially when you throw up the boogeyman of “government welfare.”

If they do this, they might just seal their fate. People will fucking die because of their direct actions, and there will be no denying the blood on their hands. And how then do you claim to be the “pro life” party? How can you make that claim when you decided to kill people so that millionaires will see their tax…

Their careers won’t be toast, sadly, despite passing this bill. The people they care about, the ones that voted them in and support whatever fuckery they get up to, will sniffle, suffer, go into further debt, endure pain and risk death but still be happy that my black, queer, disabled ass is being oppressed by their…

All I can say is I hope these goddamn fucks are happy. Every one of them, from our sorry excuse for a “leader” all the way down to the miscreants who voted him into office.
