Nixon’s apologists used to claim protestors against the Vietnam war and Watergate were paid too. Not sure who could pay 100,000+ protestors enough to make it worthwhile to stand outside for hours in rain, snow, cold and heat but they insisted they were paid...and morons believed it. Mayor Daly claimed the same in 1968…

I thought all those libtard snowflakes didn’t have jobs, how can they be getting paid for protesting?

There were two, count em two, op eds on foxnews yesterday about how the mainstream media (which I guess doesn’t include fox?) was being hysterical with this anti-trump stuff. And hannity is still convinced that the protesters are being paid. To which I say, if most of the country is shouting fire, maybe, just maybe…

Wanna fucking bet?

I have a feeling Bannon was behind this...

Plus IIRC, it is typical for the current holders of these placements to get some transition time (particularly in the case of State Department placements where entire families are living in a different country), and Trump’s team bucked tradition by insisting that a lot of them leave the moment he took office. So…

I’m quite sure that’s why he’s maligning them all. He wants people loyal to HIM not to America.

Take a gander down to the Justice Department and you might get a clearer idea of why there was no consultation. Homeland Security and the State Department, too. In the week that he’s been ruling by executive order and grandstanding at a GOP retreat, Trump has still not named appointees to fill *hundreds* of positions…

What the ever loving fuck. There’s been a lot of insanity in the last week, but he’s now outright snubbing the military alongside the intelligence community. I think he’s forgotten that as far as most officers are concerned, their oath of duty is to the Constitution first, not the whims of the President.

Apparently, Trump’s team drafted the executive order without any consultations with the Department of Justice and other federal departments directly effected by it. They don’t even know who wrote it. Everyone from top ranking officials to customs agents at airports were freaking out because they had no notice of this…

You are either naive or a poor student of history.

I can tell you my experience as a birthmother is a HUGE part of why I am as pro-choice as I am. That used to really blow the minds of the pro-lifers. Apparently I was supposed to want to force everyone to do what I did. I wouldn’t wish this experience on someone I hate. The last thing I think is that women should be…

Abortion and adoption are not in the same wheelhouse. I fucking HATE that argument. Even if there was a waiting home for every single child born to someone who didn’t want to or couldn’t care for them, forcing women to give birth is atrocious and a violation of their liberty.

I...don’t understand Spicer here. Is the word “demonstrator” supposed to be bad? I see no negative connotation.

Ok but back to the important part - how many abortions did you sell her?

“Thanks, but I don’t need any abortions.”

no one in their right mind would ever fuck them?

1. Damage trade relations with Mexico.

He will claim that they are “paying it back” via his supreme re-negotiation of NAFTA. That’s what will happen. Even if the difference never amounts to anything close to that dollar value in any of our lifetimes, that’s what he will say and the Trumpkins will eat it up.
