TROOF

My great sister, Maryanne, passed away yesterday at the age of 86. A truly beautiful woman, tall and elegant, with a presence like no other, she was also a tremendous student, intellect, and Judge, in charge of the United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit, just below the U.S. Supreme Court. Her life was largely problem free, PERFECT, until I made it difficult for her when I decided to run for President. The Fake News, and others, went after her mercilessly, and because of the fact that she felt it inappropriate, due to her position, to defend herself, it just never stopped! While tough and strong, she was made to suffer in those years from 2016 until her Retirement. I will never forget the many times people would come up to me and say,“Your sister was the smartest person on the Court.” I was always honored by that, but understood exactly what they meant—They were right! She was a great Judge, and a great sister. She will be truly missed!

It was really loving funny when he said in a debate he wanted to eliminate the Department of Energy and then got appointed to run in and like two weeks in was like "Oh poo poo, I didn't know it did all this stuff"

quote:

According to a new book by Jonathan Karl, "Tired of Winning," when the administration was headed to the Vatican in March of their first year, they were told just 10 members of his entourage could join him.

Deputy chief of staff, Joe Hagin, was handling the logistics, told Trump that it might be a good idea to bring those who "helped you get here," meaning the presidency.

"Trump jotted down the names on a piece of paper and handed it to Hagin. The list included his daughter Ivanka and son-in-law Jared Kushner, as well as several high-level White House staffers, including H. R. McMaster, Gary Cohn, Hope Hicks, Dina Powell, and Dan Scavino," Karl wrote.

There is a story about press secretary Sean Spicer being snubbed from the list of White House members attending the meeting. Spicer, a devout Catholic, expected to be there, just as other press secretaries had. He even brought his rosary, hoping to have it blessed. Trump didn't care and still left him off the list.

One story that wasn't previously told, however, is that Gary Cohn and Dina Powell didn't feel like it was appropriate for them to go since they weren't Catholic.

"Hagin explained it was too late to change the names, but based on his experience on previous presidential trips to meet the pope, he said he didn’t think the Vatican would check the IDs of the president’s entourage. If they wanted to give away their spots on the visit, whoever took their places would simply have to identify themselves to the guard at the door as Gary Cohn and Dina Powell," the book says.

"With that, Powell gave her spot on the Vatican visit to Julie Radford, Ivanka Trump’s chief of staff, and Cohn let Brian Hook, a senior State Department official, take his place. Both of the substitutes were devout Catholics who were thrilled about the chance to meet the pope, even if it meant telling a little white lie to get into the room," it continues. But then it takes what Karl calls a "Trumpy turn" in the story.

"When Trump’s entourage arrived at the pope’s offices, there was a person checking names but, as Hagin had said, not checking IDs. Brian Hook was let in as 'Gary Cohn.' But when Julie Radford walked up to take Dina Powell’s spot, she was stopped in her tracks."

“No!” the Vatican gatekeeper exclaimed, according to the book. “Dina Powell has already gone in!”
As it turns out, another person in Trump's team learned about the plot and went in before Radford, the "Dina Powell," claiming to be Dina Powell.

"When confronted by her colleagues, the official denied lying her way into the meeting," Karl wrote. "Nobody believed her, but who would call her out? Is it really a sin to deceive your colleagues at work when they are already lying to the Vatican?"

yeah when Perry got appointed at dept of energy I think a few of the career people there sat him down and showed him what they did and told him to just fly around the world making deals for his oil buddies, they'd handle the real work

John Hagee, the pastor of Cornerstone Church in San Antonio, preaches an end-times gospel and founded the Christian Zionist organization Christians United for Israel, which has made deep inroads with Republican elected officials and Israeli officials.

But he has a long track record of antisemitic batshit insanity.

"Esau's descendants would produce a lineage that would attack and slaughter the Jews for centuries," Hagee wrote in his novel Jerusalem Countdown. "Esau's descendants included Haman, whose diabolical mind conceived the 'final solution' of the Old Testament -- the extermination of all Jews living in Persia.

"It was Esau's descendants who produced the half-breed Jews of history who have persecuted and murdered the Jews beyond human comprehension."

"Adolf Hitler was a distant descendant of Esau," he added.

Hitler had been doing God's will through the Holocaust by helping Jews to reclaim Israel in accordance with biblical prophecy.
