Way too many negative nellies in here. Hoping to see an uptick of posts telling us how his approval ratings are improving and that we need to give him a chance since he's our President.

The sad thing is there really are people that believe that.

Sad and scary. We're witnessing an utter trainwreck and yet every now and then, someone will pop in here with garbage like that.

It's kind of shocking that he thinks a president could solely put a wire tap in place. It would only happen with a reason and if there was he just outed himself.

 

Is it shocking?

Now it's time for the conservative media to close ranks and blame all current Trump political quagmires on "land mines" set by the Obama admin

 

 

 

One positive (if Bannon/Priebus/Miller are out of favor) is that Ivanka softens his worst instincts, like separating mothers from their children at the border...on the other hand, Jared Kushner has zero foreign policy experience...but more of a deal maker than a keyboard warrior, compared to many in the admin. Unless the flashpoint is Israel, that is.

"Obama could be sentenced to up to 5 years in prison if he is investigated and found guilty of wiretapping President Donald Trump's campaign headquarters during the last presidential election..."

 

Lol. Love the Breitbart comments section.

 

 

In response to Levin/Breitbart hit piece

Julian Borger reported for the Guardian back on January 11 that FBI inquiries into ties between four Trump associates and Russian government figures had led to applications for two Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISA) warrants. One application was rejected, and then a second, narrower application was accepted. Contrary to Trump’s assertions, the President of the United States does not personally direct FBI investigations, and there’s no evidence that Obama had anything to do with this personally. Lurking beneath Trump’s conspiratorial web is simply the reality that he seems to be confirming that intelligence services and the FISA Court believe there is some kind of investigation-worthy evidence out there.

Huh? I've tried to give him a chance but don't agree with his policies so it is hard to. To me, he is growing more ridiculous by the day. This Obama claim is hard to believe too.

I can see it now. Minority gun sales have probably increased ten fold since the election. Just a matter of time before they start shooting this crazy white f***ers dead. Go back to your country? You first, motherf***er.

Just let the Oklahoma State House start working with ICE, VOICE and DHS.

 

 

TULSA, Okla. (AP) — An Oklahoma lawmaker who once likened Islam to cancer required Muslims to answer several written questions — including, "Do you beat your wife?" — before agreeing to meet with them.

 

Republican state Rep. John Bennett's office distributed the questionnaire on Thursday as the Oklahoma chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations organized its annual Muslim Day at the Capitol. The lawmaker's office gave the list of questions to three Islamic school students who came to his office and asked to speak with him.

 

"(The prophet) Mohammed was a killer of pagans, Christians and Jews that did not agree with him," read one of 18 questions on the form. "Do you agree with his example?"

 

The questions asked Muslims whether they would denounce terror groups such as Hamas and Hezbollah and whether they believed former Muslims should be punished for leaving Islam. One question asked Muslims if they agreed that Islamic law, known as Sharia, should rule over non-Muslims.

Trump just can't quit Obama

 

 

If there was a wiretap, after all, Trump now has the authority as president to make it public. Matt Miller, a former Justice Department spokesman under Attorney General Eric Holder, tweeted, “By confirming it publicly, Trump has also pretty much guaranteed no one can be charged for leaking the existence of this FISA warrant. Oops!”

 

As is usually the case, Trump’s supporters in the conservative media gave him all he seems to feel he needs. The Twitter fury that Trump greeted the world with Saturday morning appears to have wormed its way from conservative radio host Mark Levin to White House chief strategist Steve Bannon’s former Breitbart News website to the president pecking out on his phone, “Just found out that Obama had my ‘wires tapped’ in Trump Tower just before the victory. Nothing found. This is McCarthyism!”

 

Very quickly, he got an echo from a reliable source.

 

“What did OBAMA know and when did he know it??” Hannity wrote on Twitter.

This is how you're supposed to ask this question.

Singh said Puget Sound-area Sikh men in particular have reported a rise in verbal abuse and uncomfortable encounters recently, “a kind of prejudice, a kind of xenophobia that is nothing that we’ve seen in the recent past.”

 

To Singh, the number of incidents targeting members of the religion, which has its roots in the Punjab region of South Asia, recalls the aftermath of the Sept. 11 attacks in 2001.

 

“But at that time, it felt like the [presidential] administration was actively working to allay those fears,” he said. “Now, it’s a very different dimension.”

 

Sikh Coalition Interim Program Manager Rajdeep Singh, in calling for the hate crime investigation, said in a statement: “While we appreciate the efforts of state and local officials to respond to attacks like this, we need our national leaders to make hate crime prevention a top priority. Tone matters in our political discourse, because this a matter of life or death for millions of Americans who are worried about losing loved ones to hate.”
