facialimpediment posted:Three sources (fox, bloomberg, politico) say Spicer is leaving the press secretary gig for some other position, maybe communications. This rumor comes up repeatedly every month, but the new news is that Spicey is actively trying to find his own replacement and nobody wants it. Isn't that what Huckabee's daughter is, Spicer's deputy, so if Spicer takes a new position she becomes Press Secretary? Or did she realize she was really bad at it and left for greener pastures?

Flynn didn't report a trip to Saudi Arabia that he took at Russia's behest last year. He's got to be considered a major league flight risk at this point, right?

His role is fairly small but he's pretty good. He plays the frustrated "what the gently caress are we even doing here" guy. I thought it was laid on a little too thick based on my experience in the sandbox but it was still entertaining.

Dead Reckoning posted:The GOP has been against the ACA since it passed, so I don't see why it's at all shocking or gauche for them to repeal it. There is a night-and-day difference between the drafting processes of the ACA and AHCA. The former spent months in largely public fora* and went through all the standard budgetary forecasting procedures. 1,000 pages or not, people knew exactly what they were voting on by the time the bill came up to vote. The AHCA, on the other hand, has been hammered out behind closed doors by House and Senate leadership, shutting out even many Republican representatives to the point where the House had minimal time to review it prior to it being put to vote. Ryan and McConnell have fought tooth and nail to obstruct and manipulate the bills' review by those federal agencies responsible for measuring the impact of the proposal. It's already been explained to you that it is fundamentally incorrect to label Democratic resistance as 'obstructionism' as they wield no method of impeding the bill. Even if they did, all they are demanding right now is that the bill not be kept in the dark. *It should be noted, however, that the bill had a very tainted beginning when Obama violated his campaign promise to have a clear record of White House guests by inviting a gaggle of insurance company shits to set the foundations of the bill that would emerge. Still, nothing like the bullshit the GOP is pulling right now.

Genocide Tendency posted:She doesn't want it either. That position is a gigantic poisoned chalice. Donnie will never be happy with anyone in this role. His motivation in life is telling absolutely everyone how fantastic he is at everything and basking in the adulation he receives from doing so. Nobody will ever be able to speak for him and do it right because nobody can ever be as bigly perfect as he is. They'll be constantly poo poo on by the pissbaby manchild internally, while everyone else just uses them as a punching bag when watching them try to lie about objective facts. What I'm saying is I hope someone that is a truly terrible person takes the job and becomes the latest person that fucks up their lives chasing the brass ring that is working for Trump.

I hope Trump becomes his own press secretary. It would be his twitter feed come to life. And this is why I hope he does: https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/onpolitics/2017/06/19/kellyanne-conway-trumps-investigation-tweet-ironic/103010556/ quote:President Trump may have tweeted last week that he was being investigated for firing former FBI director James Comey, but that doesn't mean he meant it, according to White House adviser Kellyanne Conway. boop the snoot fucked around with this message at 23:02 on Jun 19, 2017 |

Whoops! https://mobile.nytimes.com/2017/06/19/us/politics/mark-corallo-trump-legal-team.html?referer=https://t.co/DHRU8xOLZo Reminder: never tweet quote:WASHINGTON — In April, Mark Corallo, the spokesman for President Trump’s personal legal team, used Twitter to suggest — twice — that Vice President Mike Pence, not Mr. Trump, should be the Republican nominee for president in 2020.

They also caught the fucker who kidnapped and murdered the 17 year-old Muslim girl in Virginia. Perp is Darwin Martinez Torres, 22 year-old construction worker, and he's being charged with her murder. He apparently rolled up on a group of teens in his car at 3:40AM and got into an argument with a 15 year-old girl on a bike then drove up onto the curb and scattered them. He later caught up to them in a parking lot and attacked Nabra Hassanen with a baseball bat before abducting her. She died of blunt force trauma to the head and neck. Eventually he dumped her body in a pond next to his apartment complex. He was arrested at 5:15AM because officers noticed his car kept on circling back to the scene of the crime. His face is pretty bruised up in the mugshot.
