Trump regularly wakes up at 7am and claims to sleep 4 hours a night, which you might think is a lie because what sort of 70 year old fat guy can stay up until 3 every night, but another theory is that he's on pills.

Most Trump voters would rather believe the embarrassingly blatant lies that come out of his mouth than ever admit they made a huge mistake.

Lol at Flynn telling him to go call an economist. Hasn't he figured out by now that the sad old man just wants someone to talk to? Just make some **** up and tell him he's smart.

This is just so shameful. Senate Republicans vote to silence Senator Warren for reading MLK's widow's letter.

Isn't it amazing that a "brilliant businessman" who owns stuff across the world knows less about the dollar than the average 12 year old?

I wish Sen. Warren would've done the old, "**** you, **** you, you're cool, **** you."

That CNN interview reminds me of this story I see shared on Facebook occasionally. I wouldn't be surprised if it becomes required teaching under our new Dept of Ed.

So I heard one of the 9th circuit judges that heard arguments today was a Carter appointee and I was like, wow, he's old but it turns out not only are there six other Carter appointees in the 9th, there are two NIXON appointees still on the bench.

Is it my bias or is

Quote:

Republicans vote to rebuke Elizabeth Warren, saying she impugned Sessions’s character

a ****ing awful headline from the Washington Post?

Like shouldn't the headline be:

Quote:

Republicans, led by McConnell, bar Warren from reading letter from MLK's widow

or something like that?

Quote:

The Senate voted, 49 to 43, strictly on party lines, to uphold the ruling that Warren violated rules of debate. Pursuant to those rules, Warren is now forbidden from speaking during the remainder of the debate on the nomination of Sessions.

Super weird that our gang of deplorables that are still crying about Milo getting canceled at a university have been silent about Warren being officially silenced. Super weird!

God, it's like there's a law that any of these dumb Facebook pictures of text have to be written by a moron who doesn't how understand capitalization works.

I'm sticking with my theory that terrible grammar and graphic design is part of the appeal. It speaks to the target audience on their own level.

rofl theyre actually trying to replace Spicer?

I mean the ****ing guy got told to lie about 15 times a day, usually using ******ed words coming out straight from the p'Resident ****** himself.

I guess they feel this is like rebranding after scamming people. Fresh start! Yay!

Of course this is a lie. Obama's Secretary of Commerce wasn't confirmed until March 24th.

This whole thing about Warren shows how ****ing clueless the GOP is. Like Mitch and Co. are probably thinking "Haha, we silenced that bitch." while unaware that everyone on Social Media is going to share that letter. If anything, they probably drew MORE attention to that letter than if they had just let Warren speak. Especially on a day like today when that's like #7 on the ****ed up things that occurred.

What the deal with the guy who is presiding just repeating what that woman says. Is he not expected to know the rules himself? Or at least enough that he doesn't need to get the lines fed verbatim. I can understand if her role (as she is like an expert in the procedural rules) was to just kind of point him in the right direction, but at least he ought to be able to explain the reasoning behind what he is saying in his own words.

I assume it's standard, but it's kind of weird. Might as well let that person make all the rulings and the let the presiding senator just chime in when he feels it necessary.
