The 45th POTUS - Donald J. Trump

[McParadigm]

Between Paul Ryan, Michael Flynn, and Tomi Lahren, it's almost starting to look like there really is a conspiracy against conservatives...intent on the most ironic punishments.

The way to do that to Bannon would be to make him face the Joker, though. So probably not.

With President Donald Trump’s sweeping agenda hitting the rocks as he edges toward the 100-day mark, top aides, political allies and donors are embroiled in a furious round of finger-pointing over who is at fault.

The recriminations extend far beyond the implosion of the GOP’s Obamacare repeal on Friday. Senior aides are lashing each other over their inability to stem a never-ending tide of negative stories about the president. There is second-guessing of the Republican National Committee’s efforts to mobilize Trump’s electoral coalition on behalf of his legislative priorities. At the Environmental Protection Agency, a top official quit recently amid accusations the department is failing to advance the president’s campaign promises. And one of Trump's most generous benefactors, Rebekah Mercer, has expressed frustration over the direction of the administration.

This account of White House infighting is based on interviews with more than two dozen Trump aides, confidants and others close to his administration, all of whom spoke on the condition of anonymity. They described a distracting and toxic atmosphere, with warring power centers blaming one another for an ever-growing list of setbacks. The dysfunction has further paralyzed an administration struggling to deliver on its blunt promises of wholesale change.

The environment, many Trump aides are convinced, has been created by the president himself — a larger-than-life figure famously loath to admit error. As Trump’s health care plan ran into problems, he found ways to divert blame — sometimes turning on his own staff.

Senate investigators plan to question Jared Kushner, President Trump’s son-in-law and a close adviser, as part of their broad inquiry into ties between Trump associates and Russian officials or others linked to the Kremlin, according to administration and congressional officials.

The White House Counsel’s Office was informed this month that the Senate Intelligence Committee, which is investigating Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election, wanted to question Mr. Kushner about meetings he arranged with the Russian ambassador, Sergey I. Kislyak, according to the government officials. The meetings included a previously unreported sit-down with the head of Russia’s state-owned development bank.

Until now, the White House had acknowledged only an early December meeting between Mr. Kislyak and Mr. Kushner, which occurred at Trump Tower and was also attended by Michael T. Flynn, who would briefly serve as the national security adviser.

Later that month, though, Mr. Kislyak requested a second meeting, which Mr. Kushner asked a deputy to attend in his stead, officials said. At Mr. Kislyak’s request, Mr. Kushner later met with Sergey N. Gorkov, the chief of Vnesheconombank, which the United States placed on its sanctions list after President Vladimir V. Putin of Russia annexed Crimea and began meddling in Ukraine.

I was really hoping this would pass so all the deplorables would lose their health care and finally learn what it's like to suffer. That's really too bad.

because this is all just a game of nanny nanny poo poo and not innocent lives at stake

Well, you know...you aren't going to win an argument with an asshole by handing them a lollipop. You have to be an even bigger asshole...somethng Democrats have yet to learn...and something Republicans are constantly taking full advantage of.

I don't see how sticking a lollipop in an asshole does any good here except for make me even more aroused

I've only seen pediatricians give lollipops...hmm.

House intel chairman met source on White House grounds
13 MINUTES AGO
House intelligence chairman Devin Nunes met on the White House grounds with the source of the claim that communications involving President Donald Trump's associates were caught up in "incidental" surveillance, the congressman's spokesman said Monday.

[McParadigm]

White House: Leakers need to be hunted and prosecuted!

Reporter: Doesn't it seem weird that Nunes had to go to the White House to meet the person who gave him his info? Doesn't that imply his "leaker" was someone with access to the WH grounds?

White House: Man does it really even matter who?

Watched Showtime's 'The Circus' this past weekend. Freaking amazing coverage of the healthcare debacle. Highly recommended to see what's really going on without the bias and constant sarcasm of the big networks.
