Spun Dog posted:Yep, Ryan's flak denied that the "Everybody hush about the treason" incident happened when asked. The reporter then read off of the transcript and he said it was a fake. Then the reporter mentioned that he heard the recording and the story changed from "It's a fake" to It's a joke" Their money and power directly translates to "good for the country" in their twisted loving minds, though.

Potato Salad posted:Explain? The way the reporting has gone re:Rosenstein is: Trump fires Comey and cites Rosensteins letter (which at no point mentioned firing him). Leaks emerge that Rosenstein isn't happy he's being painted as the cause for this, talking about how he threatened to resign over it. Trump publicly walks back the white-house Rosenstein excuse in the Holt interview. It's later reported that Rosenstein was told Trump was firing Comey and wanted Rosenstein to write a letter expressing his concerns about the director. Rosenstein appoints a special prosecutor, probably in response to the way Comey's firing was handled, because the entire situation was scummy as gently caress. This all lines up with the way Rodgers, Coats, and Comey reacted to being in situations where obstruction of justice was apparent.

Anyone else starting to feel the irony pangs of right-wingers complaining about "money from california elites is being funneled into MY LOCAL ELECTIONS!" outrage from the right, when it's slowly becoming clear that the entire republican establishment seems to be propped up by Russian oligarchs through PACs?

Huzanko posted:It's actually loving stupid to empower one person, any person, with the ability to destroy the world. You should have huge problems with this system. I don't have a problem with this system because other countries have nukes and their control over when/where they're fired doesn't differ a whole lot. This system was devised as a deterrent to a nuclear missile launch against the US. It's a credible threat. While I'm okay with revising the system for offensive/pre-emptive/strategic use of nuclear arms, the MAD doctrine only works if the trigger can be pulled before we're all dead anyway.

Krispy Kareem posted:Don't forget the 3rd part of our nuclear triad, subs. That, at least in theory, gives the President more breathing room when it comes to launching a retaliatory strike since the Russians can't first strike a submarine. The idea of a nuclear sub is the launch pad can be close to the enemy's land-based missiles, so if we detect them fueling or are expending an imminent launch, we can destroy the site instead. They make a hilariously effective dead-mans switch, too, yeah.

So we're saving 119 billion dollars over 10 years to kick 23 million people off of health insurance. Just to spell that out, that's 517 dollars per person, per year for health insurance coverage, if they don't pass this bill. 517 dollars per person to insure 23 million people? How is that not regarded as a loving STEAL? Chilichimp fucked around with this message at 21:59 on May 24, 2017 |

At least saying that it lowers the deficit is technically true. It saves ~11.9 billion dollars/year for 10 years on a ~4 trillion dollar annyal budget. That's a budget shaving of .003% What a victory for fiscal responsibility!
