Which used to be part of the European Union.  Which is why we need Space Force.

In fairness to The Donald, his mother was born in Scotland.

 

I'm not sure how that's relevant, given his statement that his parents (plural) were born in the EU.  In my world, 50% is failing.  (Well, OK.  In this case it's lying.)

Also she had to have been born before even the predecessors of the EU. 

We rate this statement “mostly false.”


Oh yeah... but did you evaluate the original statement in its entirety? Who’s fact checking the fact checkers?

Consider the fact that each of these people has a vote that counts as much as yours and mine.

Just saw this at the Highway 45 Bucee’s near Madisonville:

  • Lifted pickup with ridiculous tires and fully tricked out.
  • 12th Man sticker in the back window
  • bigass Confederate battle flag waving from mount in the bed
  • Trump sticker. 

I know. East Texas. Nothing else needs to be said.  But damn.  Somebody thought it was a good idea to spend the money and assemble all of that into an extension of their penis/ego.

I’d bet money they’ve never been near the border, and that my brother-in-law’s Subaru has been off-road more in the past year than they’ve been since they got that truck.

I bet they don’t vote though.

Well that would explain why this fucko was wearing a maroon jacket and giving a "gig my ass" hand sign.

Now that i am thinking about aggy. Back during the Johnny Football days, I worked with a woman that was a UT grad and had a Manziel picture as her desktop wallpaper and would regularly wear aggy shit to work. One day I asked her what the hell she was doing.

Me: Diane, I know your kids attend a&m but what is up with you actively rooting for the aggys?

Diane: I just love texas a&m and wish I never attended Texas because the aggys stand for conservative christian values and UT is just so liberal. I really wish I could it all over again and be an aggy.

WASHINGTON—H.R. McMaster, pushed out in April as President Donald Trump’s national security adviser, is joining Stanford University’s Hoover Institution, where he hopes to develop bipartisan national security ideas.

Mr. McMaster, who struggled to retain influence in the fractious White House, said, as a senior fellow, he hopes his work can influence national security policy as the U.S. works to combat rising threats from rivals such as Russia and China.

He might as well go develop bipartisan plans for colonizing Uranus.

Yep. So frustrating. McMaster is apparently very well-read and obviously accomplished as a military man. He's in a think tank, and we have Cheeto making foreign policy and national security decisions.

That billboard has been there since about 2015 at least.  Traveling home from Houston to Gainesville to visit the parents, I've seen that billboard for a few years now.  Looks like Cletus the Republican climbed up there and did it himself. 

Is there any truth to this?

"Trump was bankrolled by Justice Kennedy’s son who works for biggest RU laundering bank in the world"

from a Twitter feed.

i mean, if that shit can be proved, is there now a reason Kennedy is retiring?

It is true. Seems to be a pretty weak conspiracy theory being woven around it, though.

 

The bank is Deutsche Bank

Quote:

But they had a connection, one Mr. Trump was quick to note in the moments after his first address to Congress in February 2017. As he made his way out of the chamber, Mr. Trump paused to chat with the justice.

 

“Say hello to your boy,” Mr. Trump said. “Special guy.”

 

Mr. Trump was apparently referring to Justice Kennedy’s son, Justin. The younger Mr. Kennedy spent more than a decade at Deutsche Bank, eventually rising to become the bank’s global head of real estate capital markets, and he worked closely with Mr. Trump when he was a real estate developer, according to two people with knowledge of his role.

 

During Mr. Kennedy’s tenure, Deutsche Bank became Mr. Trump’s most important lender, dispensing well over $1 billion in loans to him for the renovation and construction of skyscrapers in New York and Chicago at a time other mainstream banks were wary of doing business with him because of his troubled business history.

Trump 2020: Now with more orange

Exclusive: A leaked Trump bill to blow up the WTO

 

Axios has obtained a leaked draft of a Trump administration bill — ordered by the president himself — that would declare America’s abandonment of fundamental World Trade Organization rules.

Why it matters: The draft legislation is stunning. The bill essentially provides Trump a license to raise U.S. tariffs at will, without congressional consent and international rules be damned.

Show less

The details: The bill, titled the "United States Fair and Reciprocal Tariff Act," would give Trump unilateral power to ignore the two most basic principles of the WTO and negotiate one-on-one with any country:

  1. The "Most Favored Nation" (MFN) principle that countries can't set different tariff rates for different countries outside of free trade agreements;
  2. "Bound tariff rates" — the tariff ceilings that each WTO country has already agreed to in previous negotiations.

"It would be the equivalent of walking away from the WTO and our commitments there without us actually notifying our withdrawal," said a source familiar with the bill.

  • "The good news is Congress would never give this authority to the president," the source added, describing the bill as "insane."
  • "It's not implementable at the border," given it would create potentially tens of thousands of new tariff rates on products. "And it would completely remove us from the set of global trade rules."

Behind the scenes: Trump was briefed on this draft in late May, according to sources familiar with the situation. Most officials involved in the bill's drafting — with the notable exception of hardline trade adviser Peter Navarro — think the bill is unrealistic or unworkable. USTR, Commerce and the White House are involved.

  • In a White House meeting to discuss the bill earlier this year, Legislative Affairs Director Marc Short bluntly told Navarro the bill was "dead on arrival" and would receive zero support on Capitol Hill, according to sources familiar with the exchange.
  • Navarro replied to Short that he thought the bill would get plenty of support, particularly from Democrats, but Short told Navarro he didn't think Democrats were in much of a mood to hand over moreauthority to Trump.

White House response: Spokeswoman Lindsay Walters said, "It is no secret that POTUS has had frustrations with the unfair imbalance of tariffs that put the U.S. at a disadvantage. He has asked his team to develop ideas to remedy this situation and create incentives for countries to lower their tariffs. The current system gives the U.S. no leverage and other countries no incentive."

  • But Walters signaled that we shouldn't take this bill as anything like a done deal. "The only way this would be news is if this were actual legislation that the administration was preparing to rollout, but it’s not," she said. "Principals have not even met to review any text of legislation on reciprocal trade."
  • Between the lines: Note the specificity of Walters' quote above. Trump directly requested this legislation and was verbally briefed on it in May. But he hasn't met with the principals to review the text. 

Be smart: Congress is already concerned with how Trump has been using his trade authorities — just look at recent efforts by Republican Sens. Bob Corker and Pat Toomey and Democratic Sen. Michael Bennet to roll back the president's steel and aluminum tariffs.

  • The bottom line: As a smart trade watcher told me: "The Trump administration should be more worried about not having their current authority restricted rather than expanding authority as this bill would do."

What nutlicker in the house is going to sponsor that nonsense?  It will get even fewer votes than his favored immigration bill.  I'm all for House Republicans realizing they can vote against his wishes though.  Every time they do it, it will get easier for them.

Nutlicker line starts on the right. I’m sure it’ll be full in a depressingly short time.

Well, there it is there

Michael Cohen has zero credibility... He lies almost as much as Trump.  


Either way the shitter will be working OT tomorrow morning.

Man, Avenatti is going for The Triple Crown at this point.

“Anyone got shit on Trump? I’m your guy!”

^^^

"Michael Cohen -- President Donald Trump’s longtime personal attorney and a former executive vice president at the Trump Organization -- has always insisted he would remain loyal to the president. 

He was the fix-it guy, the pit bull so fiercely protective of his boss that he’d once described himself as "the guy who would take a bullet" for the president. 

But in his first in-depth interview since the FBI raided his office and homes in April, Cohen strongly signaled his willingness to cooperate with special counsel Robert Mueller and federal prosecutors in the Southern District of New York -- even if that puts President Trump in jeopardy. 

“My wife, my daughter and my son have my first loyalty and always will,” Cohen told me. “I put family and country first.” 

 

---> evidence doesn't lie.
 

edit : 3 million+ bits of evidence should greatly validate interpretation.

Absolutely.  He's a maggot, but that language suggests he's serious about saving his ass and manufacturing some kind of bullshit redemption.
