Most Canadians would not accept their role as such being "acts of war". Trump's cruise missile attack on Syria was an "act of war", but it did not start a war. The last U.S. president to engage in a new war was Barack Obama (Libya - 2011)...the same guy who said Trump would never be president. Attacking a sovereign nation is an act of war. And the US helped the division in Syria with the help from Turkey to make this into a war that has already lasted 7-8 years. Quote

Michael Hardner Posted March 14, 2018 Report Posted March 14, 2018 And... here's your swamp: Quote Newly released emails cast doubt on claims by Secretary Ben Carson and his spokesman that he had little or no involvement in the purchase of a $31,000 furniture set for his Department of Housing and Urban Development dining room. Emails show Carson and his wife selected the furniture themselves. An August email from a career administration staffer, with the subject line "Secretary's dining room set needed," to Carson's assistant refers to "printouts of the furniture the Secretary and Mrs. Carson picked out." https://www.cnn.com/2018/03/14/politics/emails-ben-candy-carson-dining-set/index.html But this information will have no impact for the brainwashed...

Boges Posted March 14, 2018 Report Posted March 14, 2018 Looks like Trump has lost the 18th District of Pennsylvania for his party. A district that went to Trump by 20 points in 2016. Good job! Maybe when you go an campaign for a candidate in the District, you actually mention the dude's name. Quote

marcus Posted March 15, 2018 Report Posted March 15, 2018 Barack Obama shares substantial responsibility for a torturer becoming the director of the CIA. He had the chance to prosecute her and others responsible for these crimes and he chose not to, leaving her in place to rise through the ranks and now run the agency. Democrats can't absolve themselves of responsibility and condemn Trump without also condemning this gross moral failure on Obama's part. "Much has been made of President Trump’s disregard for rules and norms—boundaries delineated by ethics and morality if not written laws themselves. But transgressing laws, rules, and norms isn’t the only way to destroy them. Another way is simply not to enforce them. In that regard, the 44th president, Barack Obama, bears a measure of responsibility for the recklessness of his successor, in particular Trump’s decision to appoint Gina Haspel, the Central Intelligence Agency’s deputy director, to run the agency itself. Haspel oversaw the torture of at least two detainees at a black site during the Bush era, and then played a role in a decision to destroy evidence of their mistreatment." Obama's Legacy of Impunity for Torture Quote "What do you think of Western civilization?" Gandhi was asked. "I think it would be a good idea," he said.

Boges Posted April 3, 2018 Report Posted April 3, 2018 (edited) https://www.nytimes.com/2018/03/30/opinion/ann-coulter-trump-former-trumpers.html LOL Trump is feeling the heat! Quote Donald Trump has a boatload of problems. Ann Coulter, the author of a 2016 book titled “In Trump We Trust,” is now one of them. A week ago, when he signed a $1.3 trillion spending bill with nothing for his promised border wall, her frustrations with him, expressed frequently in her syndicated columns, turned into fury. “Congratulations, President Schumer!” she tweeted to more than 1.9 million followers. She also fantasized on Twitter about his impeachment. During an appearance at Columbia University on Tuesday night, she referred to him as a “shallow, lazy ignoramus.” And during a long conversation with me at The Times on Thursday afternoon, she sent him a warning about the wrath he’d face if the wall doesn’t rise: “The Former Trumpers should keep Donald Trump awake at night.” Coulter isn’t just any Trump critic. She was one of his earliest, most prominent — and fiercest — advocates. He came down that escalator and ranted about Mexican rapists and she swooned. Understandably: His diatribes against immigrants were cribbed from her 2015 best seller, “¡Adios, America!: The Left’s Plan to Turn Our Country into a Third World Hellhole.” It was published around the time of his campaign announcement. She had sent him an advance copy. That wall isn't gonna get built. They have full control of all three houses and they still haven't really started to build it. Just wait until the Democrats take back Congress. Edited April 3, 2018 by Boges Quote
