Annnnnnnd....... she's done.

During her run for state legislature in 2002, Gabbard told the Honolulu Star-Bulletin, "Working with my father, Mike Gabbard, and others to pass a constitutional amendment to protect traditional marriage, I learned that real leaders are willing to make personal sacrifices for the common good. I will bring that attitude of public service to the legislature." The quote, which CNN's KFile found during a review of Gabbard's early career, shows how closely she aligned herself with her father's mission at the time.

Finally a Dem who fights for Val's vote

Its some family she is apart of




Also Russian media seems to like her. Can't figure out why...

I find nothing wrong with what they served. If Obama did the same people would have loved it.

Its the white house, treat the team. they're young people who probably have to eat too much fast food out of necessity. If Obama did it, it would still be sad.
 
Personally I don't know why sports teams are invited to visit any POTUS anyway, I've never cared for that just like I don't care for the national anthem being played at sporting events. These right wingers keep saying "keep politics out of our sports" yet this kind of crap is fine.

These scholarship athletes eat well at school. Their food is provided and much better than most of us eat daily. They probably enjoyed a burger. Nothing wrong here. I also find it stupid these sports teams go to Washington to celebrate a win.

No big deal about the burgers. It goes hand in hand with trump being cheap. Though surprised someone who claims to be worth billions, he isn't, didn't shell out for a top class dinner. I bet there's some trump steaks left over they could have had.

I agree that people are making way too big of a deal about the fast food. The government is shut down who cares if he feeds some college kids mcnuggets. At least he didn't give them Pizza Hut.

With that said though...

I am being 100% serious in this - it is getting hard to tell the fake Trump twitter from the real one.

I think the trick is, the parody ones have fewer spelling errors.
 
Bill Barr, nominated AG, giving answers lindsay, the boy rapist, graham doesn't like. graham started off with butterytexts. I still don't trust Barr.
 
I do find the prospect of serving fast food at the White House hilarious but considering it was Trump, the shutdown, etc., I guess it was still a nice gesture to provide dinner for them. Now if he would have pulled out a hidden container of McDonald's Szechuan sauce I'd probably vote for him in 2020.

So far from the Barr hearing:
  1. He waffled when asked if anyone shared classified Intel with him from the White House.
  2. Back tracked furiously about his memo criticizing Mueller. Tried defending himself by admitting that he is stupid and didn't have the facts at hand.
  3. Wouldn't commit to basic constitutional norms that the president can only use funds that Congress has explicitly given him.
  4. Waffled again and wouldn't criticize Sessions horrible no tolerance policy.
  5. Says that Trump won't be able to corrupt him since he's old and doesn't have any f***s left to give.
  6. Claimed that the attorney general's job is to advise the president on politicial policy.
  7. Said that he would ignore advise from the DOJ ethics officials to recuse himself.
 
White House hoped to bypass Pelosi by inviting some Dems for lunch. None accepted the invitation.

Its starting to look like Trump might be too good at this whole being President thing.
 
While we're speaking of governments unable to accomplish anything after elections where people were fed a load of bulls***, PM Theresa May's Brexit deal came up just slightly short of passing the House of Commons. She did get 202 votes in favor, leaving her one or two votes shy of the .... let's see... 432 votes against it.
{edit: I forgot the really funny thing - this vote essentially failed because of concerns it would actually *require* a physical border between Northern Ireland and Ireland. If the Irish had the decency to be Mexicans, everyone would be happy with the wall.}
