One bit of good/not so good news for the Stinking Menace who is currently *resident in the White House.
His short term campaign manager Manafort (one of the "very best people") won't be in court this week after all. So, some days without him being at the top of the news cycle. Manafort and his attorneys get to prepare for a whole EXTRA WEEK before beginning the trial on July 31.
Of course, that puts the matter one week closer to the primaries, and thus more likely to stick in the minds of the voters.
Democrats aren’t moving “too far” left when Republicans have systematically dragged the economic discussion to the right since Reagan.
Fear not, my Purple State Napoleons!
I read this with my first cup of joe this morning and couldn’t keep from laughing imagining Nutter being conned into doing the same thing.
By November the fever will be high enough in Nutterville that all of Moddy’s friends will be protecting themselves by dropping trou and assaulting progressive voters with their bare behinds.
Hoping that Progressive Voters will throw up and be too sick to vote? Won't work in Colorado MAGAt-anus. We do mail-in ballots.
This guy is a case study in the fear, paranoia and willingness to fall for the most outrageous con jobs that has fueled the Republican Party for decades. Spencer is a hateful gadfly like a couple of former C Springs state reps we all know. He got clobbered by his hometown voters who know him best.
He was beaten in the Republican primary by a 24 year old newcomer who actually appears to be a sharp and decent guy. His platform even includes improving access to healthcare and healthy lifestyles as a priority.
That was a legislator? The guy's as dumb as a box of rocks. Oh, wait, it's Georgia. They grow 'em like that down there.
A duly-elected Georgia state representative!! America!! America!!
He got blown out of the water in a primary. I think before he showed his ass to the world.
I'd bet he'd done so, figuratively, plenty of times, before this incident
I never thought I'd say it but he actually makes Lori Saine look rational, and Dr. Chaps look dignified. I guess the Centennial State does not have the freakiest legislators.
Chaps is a formidable runner-up
Good advice from Michelle Goldberg of the NYTimes: Democrats Are Moving Left. Don’t Panic.
In 2016 Americans on both the left and right wanted to shake things up in Washington. So the appeal of the status quo that Hillary was promising just wasn't working. But I suspect that a significant number of Trump voters are regretting they weren't more careful about what they wished for.
The desire for real action is still there, and that is why we need a stronger message of tangible options to address the needs of the 99% that are getting left behind at an ever-faster pace due to a Republican agenda attempting to hardwire into the system for generations to come gains only for the wealthy.
Medicare for All is too easily attacked.
Why not "lower the Medicare age by one year per year"?
And, raise the Medicare tax by 9 basis points per year because "we are not the party of fiscal irresponsibility".
Let's see how it goes after 5 years.
I've believed for a long time that lowering the Medicare age by one year per year, would be well-received by a firm majority of voters.
And the tax increase? How will that go over?
Dave, the solution is simple. We are only going to make "rich people" (whatever that term is defined to mean) pay for the Medicare tax.
Finally, some fucking socialism up in this bitch. Government in action!
<record scratch>
White House readies plan for $12 billion in emergency aid to farmers caught in Trump’s escalating trade war
Wait until John W. Public figures out the bulk of that $12 billion will end up in the hands of a very few, large producers.
Don’t worry, it’s not considered socialism out in these parts. That only applies when libtards and people-of-color get the free stuff.
It's not socialism when the money goes to rich white guys.
Ah yes, brings back memories of all those self-sufficient Republicans that don't need no stinkin' Gub’mint help:
Gen-you-wine 5-Star-General Rank Hypocrisy
This package includes pork producers. Someone might let our stable genius know America’s (and the world's) largest pig producer, is WH Group, which is Chinese. WH Group is the parent company of U.S.-based Smithfield Foods (100% owned by WH).
Nearly all Yuma County pork production is owned by the Chinese. By all accounts they are good neighbors.
So are we sending taxpayer dollars to the Chinese-owned, American-based Smithfield Foods?
China is laughing all the way to both banks
I wonder if John Q. Public will figure out he's getting soaked twice. First, paying higher prices on goods and then paying the American producers for lost sales abroad?
Nah, what am I thinking? This is M.A.G.A.!
OOf! Republicans are not happy:
I can hear the Fox News spin now …
I would bet [or maybe wouldn't bet — those ideas are so much the same]
* the application process & the vetting process are easier than applying for FEMA benefits in Puerto Rico.
* the processing time is quicker.
* the acceptance rate is much higher.
Nutter might want to jump in here and give us some of his sage advice?
Clarice Navarro (former state rep for HD47 and avid Trumpeter) was rewarded for her Trump loyalty by being appointed state Director for the Farm Service Agency.
Surely, in that position, she can ensure that only good, loyal Republican farmers get to suck at the gubmint teat. To hell with everyone else.
Isn't that the Trump way?
MFHA….Make Farmers Happy Again
People in Trump's administration are now thinking "D'oh, maybe we shouldn't kill the people that have voted for us"
Trump's budding circle of Kleptocrats are having a tough time turning a profit
