Good things starting to come out from all this. Really, as bad as Trump is, he's really snapping some people out of this Faux News conservative BS coma they've been in.

 
Like I said... trump is now "calling out putin" for Syria attack. Another faux 'being tough on the soviet union' tactic leading up to the elections in November.

Yep but honestly the Dems need to get off the Russia thing and just run on issues like the economy. The dipping stock market and his moronic trade war are what will win this fall. Republicans can ignore a lot, but start hitting their wallets and their loyalty will falter.

They need to dispel this awful myth that "the GOP is good for the economy".
 
Just got a prompt to take a trump survey on YouTube. I'm sure I'll be put on a list.....

My guess is if you answer any gun question wrong it automatically gets "lost".

What's hilarious about the "media bias" is that people still don't think that it is possible for us to hate Trump 100%. Guess what? I hate Trump and everything about him. I'm not manipulated by any media. I'm informed mostly by his own poor grammar and spelling on twitter.

I was just driving and was behind a pickup truck with a bumper sticker that read, "I don't believe the liberal media".

I have to say it's refreshing to see a member of the Trump family trying to get kids involved in a physical activity that's not an excuse to leer at them in dressing rooms or grab 'em by the deplorables.

I like that the guy is a former soldier as well. Insert the meme about the superhero sweating over which button to press, not knowing whether they should standby Trump or go against a vet.

I have seen simple surveys on Facebook because I have friend's that likes Trump's page. The best part is all the negative comments against him because other people like me that get the suggested post.
 
Also lol fiscal conservatism

Federal Budget Deficit Projected to Top $1 Trillion in 2020
WASHINGTON — The federal government’s annual budget deficit is set to widen significantly in the next few years, topping $1 trillion in 2020 despite healthy economic growth, according to new projections from the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office.

The national debt, which has topped $21 trillion, is expected to soar to more than $33 trillion in 2028. By then, debt held by the public will almost match the size of the nation’s economy, reaching 96 percent of gross domestic product, a higher level than any point since just after World War II and well past the level that economists say could court a crisis.

The new C.B.O. projection is the first since President Trump signed a tax cut that is expected to cost the government nearly $1.9 trillion over 11 years, then signed legislation to significantly boost military and domestic spending over the next two years. The figures are sobering, even in a political climate where deficit concerns appear to be receding.

Cue the Trumptrolls on social media whatabout Obama. It's almost like he had to pay off someone else's wars and save an economy from the toilet.
 
FBI raids office of longtime Trump lawyer Michael Cohen
The attorney for Michael Cohen confirmed the use of search warrants in Cohen’s New York office, saying he’s been advised that the move “is, in part, a referral by the Office of Special Counsel, Robert Mueller. “ NBC’s Nicolle Wallace discusses with The New York Times’ Peter Baker.

I'm sure that'll do wonders for Trump's ability to recruit new lawyers, what with that already being a tremendously bigly winning endeavor.
 
With all that is going on, this will probably get lost.

Your health insurance is about to get better*

*better will be a lot worse

The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services issued a final rule that allows states to select essential health benefits that must be covered by individual insurance plans sold under former President Barack Obama’s healthcare law. The 2010 Affordable Care Act requires coverage of 10 benefits, including maternity and newborn care and prescription drugs. Under the new rule, states can select from a much larger list which benefits insurers must cover.

Insurers could also have an easier time raising their rates under the new rule. Obamacare mandated that premium rate increases of 10 percent or more in the individual market be scrutinized by state regulators to ensure that they are necessary and reasonable. The new CMS rule raises that threshold to 15 percent.

 
Also hoping Preet Bharara talks about this on his podcast Stay Tuned with Preet. I recently started listening to him and considering this is out of his old office he should have some good insight.
 
I really wish he would say..... "I am not a criminal."

Notice he said this instead of "I didn't do anything wrong".



I rarely agree with Trump, but I will repeat one thing:
“I will tell you this, Russia: If you’re listening, I hope you’re able to find the 30,000 emails that are missing. I think you will probably be rewarded mightily by our press.”
 
Threatening countries now that don't due your businesses bidding?

Lawyers for President Donald Trump’s private company warned Panama’s president last month of “repercussions” if he failed to intervene in a legal dispute involving a Trump hotel in Panama City, The Associated Press and The Washington Post reported Tuesday.

The letter from Trump Organization lawyers is believed to be the first time since Trump’s election that his company directly pressured a head of state to help the president’s business. The ploy raises fresh questions of conflict of interest, as Trump defiantly hangs onto his sprawling business interests while in office.​
 
Another bites the dust..... And because bolton suggested this, it's frightening.

Trump's homeland security adviser Bossert resigning
WASHINGTON, April 10 (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump's homeland security adviser, Tom Bossert, has resigned, the president's spokeswoman said on Tuesday, in the latest departure from the White House of a senior adviser.

An administration official said Bossert, a former deputy national security adviser to President George W. Bush, had left at the request of Trump's new national security adviser, John Bolton, who began working in his post at the White House on Monday.

"The president is grateful for Tom's commitment to the safety and security of our great country," White House spokeswoman Sarah Sanders said in a statement.

"Tom led the White House's efforts to protect the homeland from terrorist threats, strengthen our cyber defenses, and respond to an unprecedented series of natural disasters," Sanders said.

Bolton's arrival at the White House also prompted the departure of Trump's national security council spokesman, Michael Anton.

Bossert joins a long list of other senior officials who have resigned or been fired since Trump took office in January 2017, including previous national security advisers Michael Flynn and H.R. McMaster, White House Chief of Staff Reince Priebus, communications directors Hope Hicks and Anthony Scaramucci, economic adviser Gary Cohn and chief strategist Steve Bannon.​
 

Pro tip: When you're going to get charged with crimes in the next few years because you're a criminal, don't make bold proclamations about someone else going to jail who has not been charged with a crime. Right, Michael Flynn? #Loch_Himupp
