Friday Open Thread |These Are the Rotten People Who Make Up This Administration

Posted on January 25, 2019 by rikyrah

We are in the midst of a government shutdown.The pain thrust upon government workers, coast to coast, is mounting everyday.

These people are being held HOSTAGE by the whims of a madman and his racist vanity project.

They DO NOT CARE about the pain being put on these workers.

It’s obvious.

Here’s your greatest hits in callousness from yesterday:

After telling the press that federal workers are "volunteering" by continuing to come to work without pay, a reporter calls out Larry Kudlow's incorrect assessment and he fumbles further, saying they are working without pay out of respect for the presidency and Trump. pic.twitter.com/ofN3unRVSY

WITH WHAT MONEY?? 😡😡😡

Senator Bennett of Colorado has HAD IT!!
He had time yesterday👏👏

And here’s the latest extortion demands:

So the offer now is that we give Trump his wall funding and he pays TSA and the Coast Guard for 21 days? And then when we build more wall, he pays them for another 21 days? Like a never ending installment plan?

What a great deal for America!

For the first time I can truly see a light at the end of the tunnel.

Trump is broken. His power over Congress is gone. He's facing real consequences for his behavior. His allies are fractured and fighting. The public isn't listening when he speaks.

We can end this nightmare.

  My youngest brother works for Boeing in Washington State. I talked to him about an hour ago. He told me that one of his co-workers told him that he’s through with Trump and called Trump ignorant, said that Trump has messed up our government, and that it will take years to get it back on track. I imagine there are millions that voted for Trump who are now having “come to Jesus” moments. My brother and I agreed that some that voted for Trump really thought he was the actor they watched on “The Apprentice.” [BTW: I hate reality TV programs.] I blame them for their gullibility and for not doing the necessary research to find out he was an unethical, ignorant, immoral, authoritarian-minded, selfish prick before they voted for him. Whenever I’d read about someone connected to Trump’s campaign, I started research on them. I knew they weren’t ”the best” persons for the job when Trump repeatedly made the claim in 2016 and I knew about their ties to Russia, but those who voted for him didn’t know or didn’t care. If they’re disappointed with him or pissed at him now, it’s their own d@mn fault that they fell for the world’s biggest shyster and conman.

From Jamelle Bouie:

…But the paramount reason for resisting this deal, and any other, is what it would mean symbolically to erect the wall or any portion of it. Like Trump himself, it would represent a repudiation of the pluralism and inclusivity that characterizes America at its best. It would stand as a lasting reminder of the white racial hostility surging through this moment in American history, a monument to this particular drive to preserve the United States as a white man’s country.

In fact, you can almost think of the wall as a modern-day Confederate monument, akin to those erected during a similar but far more virulent period of racist aggression in the first decades of the 20th century. Built as shrines to white racial dominance as much as memorials for any particular soldier, they were part of a larger, national drive to uphold white supremacy against what one nativist thinker termed a “rising tide of color.”

Laughing so hard, I am crying

Longtime Trump operative Roger Stone has been indicted by a grand jury on charges brought by special counsel Robert Mueller. He was arrested by the FBI this morning at his home in Florida.

It’s cold as a muthaphucka outside (temps below zero), but I am smiling, sitting here, drinking my coffee this morning 🤗, reading stuff like this:

MUELLER HAS TEXT MESSAGES AND EMAILS…

FROM THE INDICTMENT:

“On or about October 1, 2016, which was a Saturday, Person 2 sent STONE text messages that stated, ‘big news Wednesday . . . now pretend u don’t know me . . . Hillary’s campaign will die this week.’”

How does it feel?
How does it feel?
To be all alone?
With your cover blown?
Your collusion shown?
A complete self-own?
Like a Roger Stone.

John Brennan: "To me, all these indictments are going to be basically the compendium of the Robert Mueller investigation … I expect there to be a significant number, and a significant number of names that are going to be quite familiar to the average American." @MSNBC

Understand that, given his age, Roger Stone now faces more than enough charges to keep him in prison until he dies. A key purpose of these 7 charges is to find out *what else Stone knows and did and with whom*. Ignore those who say this is all Mueller had.

This is a *beginning*.
