This makes what? 6 or 7 people that's had to resign because of racist comments. Can a conservative talk show host even serve in the government? Seems like near 100% that they've said something that's going to get them fired from any government job that's not electable.

Quote:

Trump administration appointee Carl Higbie resigned Thursday as chief of external affairs for the federal government's volunteer service organization after a CNN KFile review of racist, sexist, anti-Muslim and anti-LGBT comments he made on the radio.
...

Speaking on 'Sound of Freedom' in December 2013, Higbie, while recounting a time he placed an advertisement to give away free firewood, said "the black race" had "lax" morals. He added that black women think "breeding is a form of government employment."

...

"Go back to your Muslim ****hole and go crap in your hands and bang little boys on Thursday nights," Higbie said. "I just don't like Muslim people. People always rip me a new one for that. Carl, you're racist, you can't, you're sexist. I'm like Jesus Christ. I just don't like Muslim people because their ideology sucks."

"Well people are like, 'well, you can't hate somebody just for being Muslim,'" Higbie added. "It's like, yeah, I can. Do you hate people who rape little boys? They say, 'oh, of course. They're just terrible people.' Well, yeah, most Muslims believe that to have sex with men is OK, which I don't like it all. But second off, it's the ideology of a child molester. The ideology of a Muslim is what I don't like. They are screwed up in the head and it makes, pisses me off."

...

"What's so wrong with wanting to put up a fence and saying, 'hey, everybody with a gun, if you want to go shoot people coming across our border illegally, you can do it fo' free,'" Higbie said. "And you can do it on your own, and you'll be under the command of the, you know, National Guard unit or a Border Patrol, I think stick a fence six feet high with signs on it in both English and Spanish and it says 'if you cross this border, this is the American border, you cross it, we're going to shoot you.'"
....

"This birth certificate thing," Higbie said. "Sure, absolutely legitimate claim. You want to know if this, where was this guy born. That's a legitimate question." Higbie added later that Obama's birth certificate was "pixelated."

In March 2013 on Sound of Freedom, Higbe called Obama "the Muslim who was born in Kenya -- don't even get me started on that."
He later added, "Harvard, up in Boston, he put on his fricking application that he was born in Kenya."

...

"If you have taken any benefit, if you have elected to take any benefit from the government at any given time during any election cycle, you do not get to vote at the subsequent election," he said. "Because now you have people voting for a living. They don't have to work, and if you want to solve them now -- it's very hard to get something like this past, I'll be honest -- but if you pass something like that, what you would see is, you would see people who aren't contributing to the system, not voting for the system and you'll have a massive slide to the right in this country."

According to 2009 emails between political operatives who were at the time advising Daniels on a possible political campaign, the adult film actor and director claimed that her affair with Trump included an unusual act: spanking him with a copy of Forbes magazine.

Senate dems don't much like Cotton.

Schumer slams Cotton in face-to-face with Trump

Quote:

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) told President Trump this week that there will be no deal on Dreamers if hard-line conservative GOP Sen. Tom Cotton is involved, according to several congressional sources.

Schumer also told the president that he was not being well served by White House staffers during negotiations over the fate of 700,000 young immigrants who face potential deportation if no deal is reached to protect them.

Trump grew defensive during the private exchange, which took place as both men were attending the Congressional Gold Medal event for former Senate Majority Leader Bob Dole (R-Kansas) in the Capitol on Wednesday, the sources said.

Cotton — and his role in the hugely controversial Jan. 11 Oval Office meeting over a potential Senate bipartisan compromise on Dreamers — has become a focus of particular Senate Democrats' ire. There seems to be something about the Arkansas Republican that especially angers them, and they're not shy about letting Trump know it.

Ultimately, 11 Republicans voted against the bill Thursday night, while just six Democrats voted in favor of it.

Surely all of them won't be outed as pedo's.

Regardless as long as dems show up I feel they'll do very well, more of us than them.

Ivanka is going down as a spineless POS, at best. She is, to quote Stu from the Hangover, like, rotten to her core.

Nah they got everything they wanted.

1) They get to say they had no part in any shutdown

2) They proved to Ryan that he couldnt whip enough votes without them. Gives them leverage in the future. They knew nothing they wanted in this bill would pass the senate

We'll have to get a rwnj like Awval to confirm this since none of us could possibly have seen it, but apparently some nut on Hannity said James Comey was going to be impeached. James must be Hilary's co-president in Fox land.

Also, Drumpf is going to Maralago tomorrow while the government shutdown fight is on life support. He is hosting a $250,000 per couple inauguration anniversary dinner.
