Bannon and trump fighting the "deep state" is hilarious because he can fire a lot of the people if he's so worried.

but then his administration won't work. sad!

Plus the federal hiring freeze and the utter lack of anyone competent willing to work for them

Turns out rampant enemy making is a bad move!!

bannon to obama aide: "DO YOU READ BREITBART REGULARLY?"

obama aide lyingly: "Umm, yes?

I've already personally seen the effect it's had on fairly nonpartisan agencies. I can't imagine how bad it is for those actually working on the morally objectionable stuff.

I'm up to 50 links now. Some are probably nothing like that Alfa Bank server thing, Guccifer maybe working for Russia, and Wendi Deng-Putin connection but the sheer amount of people lobbiying for Russian oil companies who are also on the Council for National Policy and support Trump is pretty concerning.

quote:

The confrontation continues Tuesday, when the two branches of state government appear for a court hearing before the third. A panel of three trial judges will gather in Raleigh to hear lawyers for Gov. Roy Cooper dispute attorneys for the state House and Senate leaders over whether new laws are constitutional.

"This is a fight that involves really the three branches of government. It's one of a series of possible contests that we can see as the governor serves his term in office about who is going to make what decisions," High Point University political scientist Martin Kifer said. "It also has to do with the pace of policymaking. This isn't speeding things up."

GOP lawmakers passed several provisions that reduced the incoming governor's powers during a surprise special legislative session two weeks before Cooper took office Jan. 1. The laws:

— require Cooper's choices to run 10 state agencies to be approved by the GOP-led Senate.

— strip Cooper's control over administering elections and gives Republicans control over state and local elections boards during even-numbered years when elections for major statewide and national office are held.

— slash Cooper's patronage hiring discretion and gives civil service protections to hundreds of political appointees hired by former Republican Gov. Pat McCrory, who narrowly lost to Cooper last fall.

lindsey graham cares about the democratic process, but is still a republican.

also he doesn't like one Donald J. Trump and is eager for his numbers to get bad enough so that he can heel turn and hit him with a chair in a senatorial meeting.

the only thing that "successful" that has his whiskey stained hands on it is the ramp up of ICE efforts against undocumented people, and that's mostly just using obama's existing infrastructure and relaxing the rules. every single other thing of his agenda that's required a new policy and an original plan has been a completely failure.

it's day 44 and y'all bad at calendars

were drunks who gives a poo poo

its all the same

wake up, see your glorious leader have a meltdown and contemplate how ephemeral your life is, then forget about it as you take your regulation whiskey shots with your breakfast and then shower with a cold beer in hand and then sit out on the porch with a vape and scotch in a glass, pass out for a few hours and forget what day it is, then go online and laugh at people who think they'll stop the missiles with their ARs and hands and yinlocking without a liscence. Then you play a few rounds of whatever game u want, watch netflix, listen to some music and then drift back to sleep where its the closest feeling you'll get to death for a brief moment as you lay supine, suspended in the blackness of the universe where time no longer exists because it is not part of this reality in this construct of your mind as you perceive it.

You may be a decade old, centuries old, h*ck even eons old, there is no longer any type of objective relativity as you are eventually shattered into the swirling heat of our dying star. The universe beckons and your temporary body returns to dust, perhaps your atoms scattered across countless galaxies to be reformed on another alien planet that can maintain life and you will have a couple million years to evolve, form your own alien alcohol and alien weed, alien languages, and alien internet where we have an alien democracy and are forced to watch our pissbaby manchild alien president have a meltdown on alien twitter and then you wonder if it was all worth it, you then shrug it off and embrace your ephemerality once again.

and this fucko here is telling us about the wrong calendar day :laffo:

jest drink~ :cheers:

people who have never dealt with a bureaucracy even in a similar magnitude of the one that is the federal government think that they're gonna come in and change everything and then get really surprised when nothing loving happens and they can't do anything to change institutional inertia.

it takes like a year and a half to get the bureaucracy wrangled, 2-3 years if its actively fighting you.
