I've been waiting for this since Reince Preibus bragged about how much better the RNC was at security. When he and others were quick to criticize the Democrats for not having a safe system, I was 100% certain that their smugness would come back to bite them all. Using Wikileaks would be poetic justice for them since they were against it and then for it when it hurt the Democrats. I just wonder whether they will ever release the video they supposedly have of Trump. I am sure he would resign before he would let that get out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Juliajms Posted February 24, 2017 Members Share Posted February 24, 2017 Jones’s presentation was repeatedly interrupted by comments about killing Muslims from Frank del Valle, a staunchly anticommunist Cuban immigrant, with little or no pushback from the others in the room. “Can we not kill them all?” Del Valle asked, about 15 minutes into the presentation, during a discussion about the differences between the Sunni and Shia sects of Islam. Since Trump was elected I've been worried that various groups would join the white supremacists in scapegoating Muslims, so this story is pretty horrifying to me. I guess we should just be thankful that 45 wasn't President during 9/11. W screwed a lot of things up, but I think he quelled the Muslim hate instead of leading the charge. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members marceline Posted February 24, 2017 Members Share Posted February 24, 2017 Honestly those briefings are just theater now anyway. Spicer stands up there and lies. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members dragonflies Posted February 24, 2017 Members Share Posted February 24, 2017 I don't think they do either, they got a bigger backlash than they expected IMO I can't remember who it was, but yesterday someone posted an article on Facebook that one politician said he firmly believes ACA isn't going anywhere 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
