Trump and the evangelicals who think God-- rather than Putin-- put him in the White House, don't always see eye to eye. Evangelicals claim the earth was created around 7,000 years ago (and men were created 6 days later). Earth was actually created 4.5 billion years ago and some kind of human-like creatures appeared around two and a half million years ago. In the video above Trump told Sacha Baron Cohen (video above) that "hundreds of millions of years ago people were doing business and they were trading in rocks and stones and other things."See the lunatic in the Oval Office-- the one on the right in the picture below? That's Lionel Lebron. I guess if Trump can't get LeBron James to visit the White House, he has to make do with the grifter who promotes the QAnon conspiracy theories. Señor Trumpanzee invited him and posed for this picture with him and his wife on Thursday.You know how Trumpanzee is always ranting and raving about the baseless nonsense about "Mueller and 17 angry Democrats?" TheQAnon grifters claim that's a friendly shout out to them because "Q" is the 17th letter of the alphabet. Other theories are way crazier-- like the child sex colony on the moon run by Hillary and the Deep State, etc.
Lebron is one of the internet’s leading promoters of QAnon, the pro-Trump conspiracy theory based on a series of anonymous clues posted to internet forums. QAnon believers have interpreted the clues, which they claim without evidence are coming from a highly placed source in the Trump administration, to mean that Trump and the military are engaged in a high-stakes shadow war against a supposed globalist pedophile cult. The conspiracy theory has caught on with Trump supporters, who have held up QAnon-related signs and wear QAnon shirts to the president’s rallies....All four White House officials the Beast did speak with about how Trump, the leader of the free world, ended up in a smiling photo op at the Resolute Desk with a prominent QAnon conspiracy theorist, pleaded ignorance about when this occurred, and why. Two of these West Wing officials audibly could not contain their laughter.“This president is a president for all Americans,” one joked, including conspiracy theorists.
Nice that Trump was able to take a moment off from all the scandals swirling around him to spend some time with QAnon, which has, for example, claimed that Debbie Wasserman Schultz hired MS-13 to murder DNC staffer Seth Rich. My favorite QAnon scam is that Obama, Hillary and George Soros are planning a coup and that the Mueller investigation is actually a countercoup led by Señor T himself, who pretended to collude with Putin in order to hire Mueller to secretly investigate the Deep State Democrats. I wonder what the conversation was like between Trump and Lebron.On Friday, writing for the NY Times, Eileen Sullivan reported that Trump pulled himself away from QAnon long enough to demand that Jeff Sessions get the heat off him by charging "the other side"-- presumably the Democrats, not the other side of the moon-- with some crimes.
Sessions on Thursday issued a rare public statement defending his record as attorney general and pledging his commitment to justice after the president accused him of never taking control of the department.“Jeff Sessions never took control of the Justice Department and it’s a sort of an incredible thing,” Trump said during a recent interview with Fox News.On Thursday afternoon, Sessions hit back. “I took control of the Department of Justice the day I was sworn in,” he said in a written statement.The sparring match between the president and the attorney general extended the public war that Trump has waged for more than a year on the Justice Department, training most of his fire on the special counsel investigation into Russia’s interference in the 2016 election.Sessions’ response Thursday, his most forceful public pushback yet on Trump, showed the treacherous political terrain he is navigating: appointed by a president who has made apparent that he views law enforcement as loyal protectors, but overseeing a Justice Department that views independence from political pressure as essential to the rule of law.The president privately vented to associates that he was furious with Sessions for failing to protect him in the way he believes Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. had protected President Barack Obama.“Jeff, this is GREAT, what everyone wants, so look into all of the corruption on the ‘other side,’” Trump wrote in a pair of Twitter posts early Friday morning. “Come on Jeff, you can do it, the country is waiting!”Trump listed people and political enemies who he believes deserve the attention of the Justice Department, including the targets of conservative conspiracy theories that claim the Russia investigation was motivated by politics.
