Actually Murkowski sat down for an interview in which she explains why she voted against Trumpcare:Senator @lisamurkowski of the Great State of Alaska really let the Republicans, and our country, down yesterday. Too bad!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) July 26, 2017
"I voted no on the motion to proceed today because I didn't think that we were ready for the debate. And I have said pretty consistently that process really does matter, particularly when you're dealing with something that is as direct and personal as health care, something that has an impact on one-sixth of the nation's economy," Murkowski said in an interview Tuesday evening after the vote. "This is big, and then you throw in major Medicaid reform on top of that," she said.
Murkowski argued that revisions to the Affordable Care Act, often called "Obamacare," are necessary, but that the Senate process has not been conducive to crafting good policy, "enduring policy."
"And so my vote today was one that said, 'We're not ready to go to the floor to wrap this up,' " she said.
Of course Murkowski has been pilloried by many Republicans for her vote, both here at home and in Washington.
However there was one GOP Senator who was not disappointed:
Of course, McCain came to a different conclusion, and flew in from Arizona just for the vote. A long, stitched-up gash covered one eye, and his complexion was pale, a man facing down potentially deadly brain cancer.
"He did tell me, though … 'You did the right thing,' which made me feel good," Murkowski said of a conversation with the veteran senator right after the vote.
Trump also decided to go back on Obama's promise, and block transgendered folks from serving in the military.

Then a little later this morning Trump turned his attention back to Jeff Sessions and the Acting Director of the FBI.

It would appear that Trump is still pressuring Sessions to quit so he can replace him with an AG that will shut down the Russia investigation....big dollars ($700,000) for his wife's political run from Hillary Clinton and her representatives. Drain the Swamp!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) July 26, 2017

ReplyDeleteDonald Trump is now abusing the presidency to take civil rights away from others in a pathetic bid to boost his poll numbers and distract from the scandal that is eating away at his presidency.
Trump is unstable and making policy decision that discriminate against people based on his own selfish political needs and whims.
The President is going rogue and acting on his own without telling our government. Today, it was tossing transgender people out of the military. Tomorrow, it could be a military strike and new war. Donald Trump is dangerous, and his presidency must be stopped.

Trump Is Now Trying To Get The Acting FBI Director Fired As The President Is Cornered On Russia
Trump believes that the Russia investigation is a Democratic conspiracy against him, and he is mad at Jeff Sessions for not killing the FBI’s investigation. The President motives are childlike in their transparency.
First, Trump kicks transgender persons out of the military to please his dwindling base of support, and then he goes back to work trying to kill the Russia investigation. The President’s tweets were a message to Jeff Sessions that he can get out of Trump’s doghouse by firing the acting FBI Director and appointing a Trump ally so that the White House can take control of the Russia investigation.
The President Of The United States is actively working to sabotage and obstruction an investigation into himself, his presidential campaign, and his family. If Trump fires McCabe, Congress will be under immediate pressure to appoint an independent special prosecutor.
Donald Trump is escalating in his efforts to kill the Russia investigations, and he is firing away from having to deal with an independent prosecutor.

Trump appears to have concluded that either Lisa Murkowski is to blame for how things went last night, or that she’s capable of being flipped. And he is correct in that Murkowski is less of a sure “no” than Collins. But Trump is ignoring the fact that during last night’s repeal and replace vote, a whopping nine Republican Senators voted against his wishes: Murkowski, Collins, Bob Corker, Tom Cotton, Lindsey Graham, Dean Heller, Mike Lee, Jerry Moran, and Rand Paul.
ReplyDeletehttp://www.palmerreport.com/opinion/donald-trump-is-worried-trumpcare-vote-will-fail-begins-lashing-out-at-republicans/4057/
The Democrats, despite not having a majority in the House or Senate, have nonetheless managed to hold Donald Trump at bay in a number of key areas. Now, in a move that could be seen as deeply ironic yet necessary, Democrats in the Senate have hatched a plan that would keep former Republican Senator Jeff Sessions in his current role as Attorney General against Trump’s wishes. Well, Trump can still fire Sessions if he wants. But now he can’t replace him.
ReplyDeletehttp://www.palmerreport.com/politics/thanks-trumps-big-mouth-democrats-block-attorney-general/4056/
Donald Trump has long believed that he can give the entirety of mainstream America the middle finger and still survive in office, so long as he keeps his own base happy. That’s not truly the case, and it serves to demonstrate just how simplistic of a misunderstanding of national politics Trump suffers from. But now, for the first time, he’s in real trouble with his own base thanks to his attacks on racist stalwart Jeff Sessions.
ReplyDeleteBreitbart, the ultra-racist “alt right” political propaganda site that helped run Donald Trump’s campaign and has consistently championed him during his time in office, is now openly attacking Trump. Considering how much influence Breitbart has over the racist demographic of Trump’s base, this spells severe trouble. It’s a stunning development, but it perhaps shouldn’t come as a surprise.
Jeff Sessions has long been a hero to racists around the nation in general, and in his native South in particular. Trump’s attacks on Sessions are, by default, an attack on his own racist base. Moreover, Breitbart is controlled by Steve Bannon, who has been close to Sessions for far longer than he’s been close to Trump. So it’s not necessarily surprising to see Breitbart (and Bannon by proxy) siding with Sessions, while slamming Trump for having dared to attack Sessions.
And yet, when you see Breitbart using words like “weak” and “hypocrisy” to describe Donald Trump, you see that there’s a real problem here within Donald Trump’s base (as per policy we won’t link to Breitbart, but you can google the article if you so desire). If Trump does end up outright firing Jeff Sessions, it could permanently fracture his own base, costing him a chunk of his supporters in the process.

Transgender Navy SEAL Hero Dares Trump: Tell Me To My Face I’m Not Worthy Of Serving
ReplyDelete...According to the RAND Corporation, in 2016 there were between 1,320 and 6,630 transgender people serving in the military.
On Wednesday, a retired Navy SEAL team 6 hero who is transgendered, called out Trump over his decision to ban trans people from serving in the U.S. military, telling him to tell her to her face that she is not worthy of serving.
Kristin Beck, a 20-year-veteran of the Navy SEALS, was interviewed by Business Insider about Trump’s ban and she had a few choice words for the amateur president.
“Let’s meet face to face and you tell me I’m not worthy,” Kristin Beck said, referring to President Bone Spurs. “Transgender doesn’t matter. Do your service.”

Trump’s Lawyers Say Encouraging Reasonable Force Against Protestors Is 1st Amendment Right
ReplyDelete...udge Hale believes the plaintiffs’ complaint is more than enough to proceed toward a trial, writing in his March 31 order “It is plausible that Trump’s directive to ‘get ’em out of here’ advocated the use of force. [It] is stated in the imperative; it was an order, an instruction, a command.”
Trump’s lawyers, however, believe that, not only is that a reasonable order for Trump to give, it is also his right.
...Furthermore, Trump’s lawyers filed a “writ of mandamus” with the U.S. 6th Circuit Court this week, asking the appeals court to remove the case from Hale. Their argument was that Trump cannot be held liable for “negligently inspiring third parties to engage in violence.”

"Former Texas Comptroller Susan Combs once likened proposed Endangered Species Act listings to “incoming Scud missiles” headed for her state’s oil and gas-rich economy."
"Brett Hartl, government affairs director at the environmental nonprofit Center for Biological Diversity, told HuffPost that Combs has “made it her personal crusade to fight endangered species.” To have her in a position where she could potentially harm endangered species via the withholding of funds, he said, would be “devastating.”"
Trump is already planning to start his wall on land in Texas that is a protected wildlife sanctuary because it would be cheaper and faster since the government already owns the land. Never mind he has no money to build his fucking wall. They'll act first, destroy this land, kill the animals and there will be a few miles of boondoggle as a tribute to the fucking morons that elected this asshole.

The White House press briefing has been reduced to a forum where Trump gets his fan mail read just so that he can feel loved by America.

In fact, the press briefing was cut short, but Sarah Huckabee Sanders made sure that she had time to read her own bio and Trump’s fan mail.
ReplyDeleteThe letter was not an attempt to humanize Trump. It was a play to the ego of the thin skinned president. The White House has turned the press briefing into a therapy session for the damaged president, as the free press takes a backseat to Trump’s fragile ego.

" evidence may not matter much to Trump, because the real reasons for the renewed anti-trans ban are reportedly more political — about sticking it to Democrats and political correctness — than his public-facing reasons. To Trump, trans troops have just become political pawns for his broader efforts.". At the daily press briefing, Sanders said, “That's something that the Department of Defense and the White House will have to work together as implementation takes place and is done so lawfully.”Trump is effectively sacrificing trans people’s rights because he sees it as politically expedient"For one, the administration is largely made up of politicians who have been staunchly anti-LGBTQ for their whole public careers, like Vice President Mike Pence and Attorney General Jeff Sessions. Both men have long histories in Congress of opposing civil rights measures for LGBTQ people, including workplace protections and hate crime laws" Just a day before Trump tweeted his decision to ban trans soldiers, Foreign Policy reported that Pence was working to reverse the Obama administration’s trans-friendly policies."
