Trump's wall

In his war against humanity, Señor Trumpanzee took some fire yesterday from his own side. On Fox and Fiends a neo-Nazi pundit, Michelle Malkin, who is known on the far right fringes, said "Well, I’m not going to sugarcoat it. I’m not going to spin it. I wish I could but I can’t. This is a cave. This was a blink." She was talking about Trump backing down from shutting the government after he was told he isn't getting any money for the wall the American Nazis want to build.

by NoahNext Mr. Art Of The Fake Deal will announce that he has struck a cash deal, "a tremendous deal, a tremendous deal that Obama couldn't have made," with some of his Russian oligarch buddies that will have agreed to pay for "The Wall" in exchange for 2 states of their choice and a missile base in Missouri. Here's hoping they take Flor-i-duh.

Eliana Johnson and Alex Isenstadt, in their reporting for Politico, reminded readers what a top of the pile DC job presidential chief of staff is. But for the two Trump has gone through, Reince Priebus and John Kelly?

I wonder if adolescent Trump was ever a stamp collector. Most Americans who know of the existence of Spanish Sahara (1884-1975) only know about it as a part of their collections. It's a big, mostly empty territory south of Morocco and north and west of Mauritania, bordering on a stretch of the Atlantic Ocean. A tiny corner touches southwest Algeria.

In ancient Egypt there were a few times when a pharaoh and a Pharaonic regime was considered so awful by the successor that all traces of him were wiped away. Even his name was chiseled off tablets and monuments... or hers.

A friend of mine used to be in business with one of Trump's lawyers. He told my friend and my friend told me a funny story. Lawyers hate working for Trump and not only because he doesn't pay his bill. This particular lawyer told him that among lawyers who have worked for Trump this is fairly common. He and Trump would be their way to court.

US: Republican-In-Name-Only (RINOs) have sold out their constituents once again as they prepare to pass the enormously bloated $1.3 trillion, 2,232-page omnibus budget that they have not even read. It is loaded with hand-outs by big spenders - Republicans and Democrats alike. Politics as usual while the nation staggers under the increasing load. [...]

by NoahLike any sane American, I would hate to see my money being spent on a useless Trump Wall on the Mexican border. It's only reason for being will be to hand our taxpayer dollars to contractors who have a relationship with the Trump Crime Family. The kickbacks and handouts will be as huge as the wall itself.The wall I can support would be the one that encloses Señor Trumpanzee for the rest of his miserable days.

Neither Will Hurd (R-TX) nor Pete Aguilar (New Dem-CA) are very popular in their districts and, frankly, neither deserves reelection. A Democrat is likely to beat Hurd, although the DCCC and the Castro Machine have its fingers on the scale for a worthless Blue Dog in South Texas. And it will take some time before a progressive is in position to primary Aguilar in the Inland Empire. They’re both useless back-benchers from overwhelmingly Hispanic districts and this week they co-sponsored a DACA compromise-- a “discussion draft” ahead of Trump’s January 19 deadline.
