The president's salary is an incredibly magnanimous contribution, meanwhile transgender medical costs are bleeding us dry. Up is down, freedom is slavery, etc etc.

I was listening to an expert on NPR talk about what would happen if we left and he said that basically the same thing that happened in the early 1990s: civil war would force the Afghan government out of the Pashtun areas and the Northern Alliance would be reformed out of the Turkmen, Hazara, Tajiks, Uzbeks, and a few loyalist Pashtun tribes. Basically we stepped in to keep Central Asian Yugoslavia held together with duct tape and when we leave the country will again fracture along ethnic lines.

Well this is fun. Everyone sort of expected that the Customs and Border Patrol were stonewalling Congresspeople and lawyers when the initial Travel Ban came down. The Daily Beast got their hands on the official order for agents to do so. http://www.thedailybeast.com/border-patrol-ordered-to-block-congressmen-during-travel-ban?via=twitter_page By the way, a golf magazine cited unnamed sources that Donnie called the White House a "dump" which is why he spends so much time at his golf courses. Donnie called the report Fake News, which means even golf magazines are part of the Fake News.

ICE/CBP detained a loving NYPD officer and Army Reserve Major coming into JFK during that debacle https://www.google.com/amp/s/mobile...nation.amp.html Edit: we have about 1,000 Muslim NYPD officers which is about 1/36th of the department. The actual number is probably higher, that's just a rough estimate based off of a google search. Matches up with my experience though.

The NAACP issued a travel advisory for Missouri after the state legislature passed a law making it difficult to prove race discrimination. It turns out the sponsor of the bill is currently facing suit for racial discrimination.

Well define 'won'. If by won you mean achieve some muddy goals set forth by civilian leadership, then no. If by kill the everloving poo poo out of the opposing forces then by golly we've been punching teeth out for 200 straight years. Iraq and Afghanistan is like Mike Tyson wailing on a baby. Our K:D ratio in the much less successful Vietnam outing is anywhere from 8:1 to 20:1. That's probably the upper bound of killing efficiency until we start going mostly robot or genetically enhanced soldiers or loving ghosts in a shell.

Following his departure from the White House after less than 11 days as communications director, Scaramucci will be hosting an online event on Friday where he will address the American people directly. Scaramucci said this daytime event — which will be broadcast on various live platforms with help from former Fox News co-president Bill Shine — will give him the opportunity to reach and communicate with the President's base. Although his time as communications director was notably short, Scaramucci told CNN he only anticipated being in the position six to nine months. Scaramucci said he was brought into the White House as a "special purpose vehicle" to disrupt the culture of leaking and counterproductive infighting. On Wednesday, CNN obtained an internal memo that detailed his other goals, which included things like trying to improve press relations and create more content from within the White House. Scaramucci was fired from the Trump administration by new chief of staff John Kelly days after a New Yorker article detailed a conversation between Scaramucci and reporter Ryan Lizza. During the profanity-laced conversation, Scaramucci accused former Trump chief of staff Reince Priebus of being the source of West Wing leaks and said "I'm not Steve Bannon, I'm not trying to suck my own c--k," among other things. Scaramucci said he believes his story is being misconstrued, however, and said had he known he was speaking on the record he would have not spoken in such a vulgar manner on behalf of the President. However, Scaramucci told CNN he still considers his short tenure in the White House successful. Both former White House press secretary Sean Spicer and Priebus left during his time as communications director. Scaramucci told CNN he believes he was the target of both parties, and that the media has painted him as a loose cannon. As for what's next after Friday's event, Scaramucci plans to go dark until after Labor Day, when he will announce his next venture after he evaluates his various media and finance-related opportunities.

The sanctions bill that we passed violated all of the terms of the Iran Nuke Deal and they're now free to spin up the centrifuges. Say thanks to your local Democrat for almost unanimously voting for that poo poo.

I don't think I agree on that sanctions bill. https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2017/08/03/middleeast/iran-sanctions-nuclear-deal/index.html The new sanctions targeted the Iranian ballistic missile program, plus people related to it, which is an area completely uncovered by the Iranian nuclear deal. Seems mostly a US reaction to Iran sending up a satellite a while back, since that poo poo easily can be turned into an ICBM. Iran is still loving around with providing equipment used to kill American soldiers in Iraq and other places, so Iran isn't in the moral clear here. Sure, Donnie is being a dumbfuck about the Iran nuke deal, which Iran is definitely complying with, but Iran is loving around in other ways. Bernie is right to be wary as hell, but I think he's wrong here. These sanctions target areas outside of the nuke deal, regardless of what Iran yells about. Slippery slope sure, but not there to nuke deal breaching yet.
