StrangeSox Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 By the way, we technically hit the debt ceiling tomorrow. I think they can implement "extraordinary measures" through the summer, but Congress and the White House will need to do something this year to ensure we don't default and send the world economy into a tailspin.

StrangeSox Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 (edited) Congress has already more or less told the WH where they can shove that budget. Republicans may be happy to gut the EPA, but they're not going to neuter the State department. e.g. Glenn ThrushVerified account @GlennThrush Follow More Senior aide to Hill GOP leadership on Trump/budget: 'its a joke...we've learned not to listen to anything he says or does. We're on our own' and several Congressional R's have expressed "concerns" over various parts of the budget including Senate Majority Leader McConnell questioning the wisdom of cutting the hell out of 'soft power' i.e. State and foreign aid programs.

StrangeSox Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 EXCLUSIVE: Nazi-Allied Group Claims Top Trump Aide Sebastian Gorka As Sworn Member Sebastian Gorka, President Trump’s top counter-terrorism adviser, is a formal member of a Hungarian far-right group that is listed by the U.S. State Department as having been “under the direction of the Nazi Government of Germany” during World War II, leaders of the organization have told the Forward. The elite order, known as the Vitézi Rend, was established as a loyalist group by Admiral Miklos Horthy, who ruled Hungary as a staunch nationalist from 1920 to October 1944. A self-confessed anti-Semite, Horthy imposed restrictive Jewish laws prior to World War II and collaborated with Hitler during the conflict. His cooperation with the Nazi regime included the deportation of hundreds of thousands of Jews into Nazi hands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StrangeSox Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 Michael Skolnik ✔ @MichaelSkolnik Trump wants to cut funding for Sesame Street. If Melania lived with Donald, we could pay for every show on PBS and NPR for the entire year. Michael Skolnik ✔ @MichaelSkolnik Trump wants to fire 3200 people at the EPA.

StrangeSox Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 More details have emerged on Flynn's Russian payments Michael Flynn, who was forced to resign as national security adviser amid controversy over his contacts with Russia's ambassador, collected nearly $68,000 in fees and expenses from Russia-related entities in 2015, a higher amount than was previously known, according to newly released documents. The records show that the bulk of the money, more than $45,000, came from the Russian government-backed television network RT, in connection to a December 2015 trip Flynn took to Moscow. Flynn has acknowledged RT sponsored his trip, during which he attended a gala celebrating the network's 10th anniversary and was seated near Russian President Vladimir Putin. His speaker's bureau took a cut of the fee. The newly released documents show that Flynn was also paid $11,250 that year by the U.S. subsidiary of a Russian cybersecurity firm, Kaspersky Lab, and another $11,250 by the Russian charter cargo airline Volga-Dnepr Airlines. The cyberfirm said the payment came for a speech Flynn delivered in Washington. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
