With Donald Trump’s first international trip scheduled for next week, a bipartisan Congressional contingent is pushing for Trump to fly United Airlines.
The Washington Post and NY Times both are reporting that Donald Trump gave highly classified information to the Russians during their recent visit to the Oval Office. Is this really “Breaking News?” Fox News sees no story and is running highlights from the White House Easter festivities on their shows tonight …
Pay no attention to the Russian in the Easter Bunny costume.
Meanwhile, CNN and MSNBC are trumpeting “Breaking News” and acting like Trump just sold the nuclear codes on eBay. This is really not “Breaking News.” Trump is heading out of the country next week. One stop, while not on the official itinerary, will be a quick trip to Russia for a scheduled job performance review with his boss, Vladamir Putin, where he will undoubtedly turn over that classified info and so much more. “Breaking News?” More like “Expected News.”
Students at the Bethune-Cookman University commencement drowned out Betsy DeVos with boos as she tried to give the commencement speech. I don’t mind the students drowning out DeVos with boos, but I just wish the students would have only done half of that, maybe just the drowning part, although I would be satisfied with a waterboarding.
Some students turned their back on DeVos as she tried to speak.
I don’t think that was disrespectful at all. I think those students were just showing Devos support for how she has turned her back on public schools in the USA.
Ugh, this idiot Trump ruined another one of my childish blog posts scheduled for publication tonight. It wasn’t much of a post. It was just a pic of real Trump tweets in chronological order crying about the Russia investigations, Sally Yates and James Clapper. At the end, I added a fake Trump tweet for comic effect. Here it is …
This real Trump tweet this morning spurred my investigative side …
Who is this W.H. Council to whom Sally Yates explained this classified information? And so, once again our crack investigative team trumps Fake News and has launched an independent investigation. Our findings so far …
Unlike some of my “enhanced” Trump tweets, this one is the real deal …
This is an excellent example of perfect deployment of the “I’m rubber, you’re glue, whatever you say bounces off me and sticks to you” defense. I would not be surprised if we see a follow-up tweet using the “I know you are, but what am I?” argument.
I participated in a 2 mile Fun Run/Walk today that benefited my youngest child’s school. Now that I am running again, I contemplated running the 2 mile course. Perhaps I could have come in first in the “ancient” age group. However, as I scanned the field of young parents, some of whom are the age of my oldest daughter, I realized that there was a very distinct possibility that I could be passed by a walker as I ran. Rather than risk the embarrassment and ignominy of being passed by a young mother recovering from a recent C-section pushing her new baby in a stroller while leisurely chatting with friends, I walked.
The healthcare bill passed by House Republicans yesterday will defund Planned Parenthood as just one of its many heinous actions. I find it ironic that Republicans want the federal government to pull out of funding Planned Parenthood which is exactly the kind of contraception that millions of Americans would have to go back to without Planned Parenthood.
My oldest son and his friend offer a music discussion podcast on iTunes these days called Ear Buds. You may enjoy checking out their Ear Buds podcast called “My Dad is not a Twitter Bot.” I think that is a reference to me tweeting all this blog nonsense out. If you do check out Ear Buds, I make a cameo appearance on Ear Buds podcast #3 with a “dad” review of what they consider a song that may appeal to their dads. I wasn’t sure if they wanted me to play it straight or provide a rant about music today not really being music. Well, I really liked the song, so I provided an honest review.
Here’s the song “King of a One Horse Town” from Dan Auerbach of The Black Keys …
