Has Trump even had a single day yet without a catastrophe?

If Zinke's smart, he'll jump ship before he gets confirmed.

No, thank god.

Jesus Christ, Trump rejected the two-state solution?! Cue the Palestinian terrorist attacks. And unlike ISIS, etc, I'd say they'll have a legitimate gripe.

It's also been interesting to see how the notion of the 'Deep State' as an evil entity as started manifesting itself in the right wing in general, transcending the InfoWars crowd. That kind of idea used to really only belong to the left.

I think it's more the perception that it appears they are acting against our duly elected president, instead of a brown person. It will be interesting to see if Eli Lake's prediction comes true: first Flynn, then nazi barbie, then spicer, bannon, preibus, culminating in Trump becoming so politically toxic he has to resign in disgrace (without ever having to prove his connection to Russia).

Also, how is that like the 4th story on a popular news site's front page?

I don't get it...Is Cruz trying to be funny?

Fuck.

White House Plans to Have Trump Ally Review Intelligence Agencies

WASHINGTON — President Trump plans to assign a New York billionaire to lead a broad review of American intelligence agencies, according to administration officials, an effort that members of the intelligence community fear could curtail their independence and reduce the flow of information that contradicts the president’s worldview.

The possible role for Stephen A. Feinberg, a co-founder of Cerberus Capital Management, has met fierce resistance among intelligence officials already on edge because of the criticism the intelligence community has received from Mr. Trump during the campaign and since he became president. On Wednesday, Mr. Trump blamed leaks from the intelligence community for the departure of Michael T. Flynn, his national security adviser, whose resignation he requested.

There has been no announcement of Mr. Feinberg’s job, which would be based in the White House, but he recently told his company’s shareholders that he is in discussions to join the Trump administration. He is a member of Mr. Trump’s economic advisory council.

Mr. Feinberg, who has close ties to Stephen K. Bannon, Mr. Trump’s chief strategist, and Jared Kushner, the president’s son-in-law, declined to comment on his possible position. The White House, which is still working out the details of the intelligence review, also would not comment.

Yes, let's blame the leaking of the news instead of the content. That sounds like the way to go with this.

As fast as the FBI jumped in to clear Flynn, I'm wondering if intel has been sending info to them and seeing no sign of action, so took to leaking.

Shit is getting real.

I dont think any president can really win a battle with the Intelligence community. At least not when he continually pisses them off.

it's almost like Pudzer was nominated after someone misheard a joke response to 'who should we make the secretary of labor?'
