And I agree.  But I also think the military would have no other option.  Trump simply cannot be trusted in matters pertaining to our protection against enemies from abroad; and if the Pentagon and the IC can't see WHY he can't be trusted at this point, it's because they don't want to see it.

 

I'm starting to wonder whether McCain's actions have been some calculated form of payback for the comments Trump made about him during the campaign.

 

Trust me, it comes from years of practice.

The IC declared war on Donnie when he stood up at the CIA memorial wall cracking jokes about his inauguration while his paid sycophants laughed in the background. The FBI started coming for him the day he fired Comey. I'm guessing his little stunt with tweeting military policy was the last straw for the armed forces.

I'm not wondering about it at all.....IMPO that's EXACTLY why he did it.to teach that POS a lesson.....you don;t talk [!@#$%^&*] about someone and think it won;t come back to rip out that funky ass of yours. he did it to himself......and the worst for Trump is yet to come.

Yep.  I shouldn't give that man credit for being savvy, but I feel like Trump looked at his options and felt he had no choice BUT to sign, lest he wanted to add fuel to the "Trump is Putin's bitch" fire.  Of course, unless he's worked out something privately with them, the Russians will end up putting him on THEIR (s)hit list as well.

 

Boy, I hope Trump is really regretting running for president.

 

 

IA.  On the one hand, we all know how the military REALLY feels about gays and transgendered people.  ("Don't ask, don't tell," anyone?)  But, OTOH, a soldier IS a soldier, and I think even your most hard-core, right-wing, conservative war hawk can't help but appreciate, however begrudgingly, anyone who risks life and limb in the name of protecting our country.

 

 

And now I hear Trump is coming for Murkowski, who's chairperson of the Senate committee that could determine, among other things, whether his candidates for the Department of the Interior are approved, and whether his precious policy rollbacks for the energy industry will see the metaphorical light of day.  And all because she thought her constituents in Alaska deserved a better deal than Ahab's "skinny repeal."  Yeah, Donny, that's gonna work out REAL well fer ya.

How can anyone feel secure with such a man as Trump at the helm?? He's actually terrorizing people over healthcare. You know what that makes him?

Which is probably why Sally Yates feels that the Judiciary needs protection...from Trump.

NY and 16 other states filed against this a few months back. I imagine if they attempt to proceed, the case will be bumped up.

 

Oh and for THOSE WHO HAVE NO CLUE OR DON"T READ, congress already receives insurance through Obamacare. THat was a mandate when the ACA was passed. Oh and for something so bad, they kept themselves exempt from any new healthcare bill proposed and decided to keep Obamacare for themselves. The elites and takers in this country are sitting in the Capital and The White House, not in communities

    • Do we believe that Jabot is at the level of Estee Lauder?? I am on board with Jabot deciding to expand but the way it was handled was ridiculous. Jabot just decided and bingo, that was that. Not months of negotiations and decisions about how it would fit into the Jabot portfolio. And then no follow through. Josh thinks he's serving business stories by characters sitting around and discussing mergers, takeovers and job switching. Now we have Audra setting up her own company -Vibrator or something. Well, why not? You don't need staff, office space or even products.
    • He a dirty dog! Those are his kids and he hurt everyone. At this point he needed to just come clean. I can't believe I was lusting over this man! I hope they aren't quick to forgive.
    • The way I took it is that he did not want to confirm or deny anything until he talked to Nicole first. He was very calculated with the wording he used with Martin and Kat
    • I still see Alfonso Ribeiro as Carlton when Martin gets angry.
    • Not that I want to defend Y&R's writers, but it's not as absurd as you'd think and I believe they plucked it from reality (and then bungled it). The Estee Lauder Companies purchased Tom Ford's brand several years ago and I am willing to bet that's how Jabot came to buy Marchetti.
    • Loved the episode today. looking forward to the fallout. Nubian-Sheila looked fantastic, but I wish the writers would cut back on her overuse of figurative language. I loved the "fix yo mind ministries" line though. The background music during her fantasy confrontation with Nicole was epic.
    • Nothing makes sense on this show. I wish there was a garbage can emoji. That sums up 90% of the show right now.
    • You're welcome

      Jane Wyman return episode was head-to-head w/ Cheers season 8 finale. Falcon Crest broadcast syndication began Fall 1986, which overlapped w/ Oprah going national. AFAIK cable broadcasts were Lifetime and Soapnet. I have no memory of cable broadcasts on TBS, TNT, TNN, E!, FX.
    • After today’s rushed and abrupt exit for Summer I immediately realized that Josh & Co. were very blindsided by AL’s decision to leave.  Not the first time this has happened to JG either; see MM & HK’s exits in 2021, MM’s exit in 2022, and of course TSJ’s exit last year. Obviously JG and our executive in charge of nothing Steve Kent don’t have a good handle on casting disruptions. And Mariah having an offscreen affair is [!@#$%^&*] ridiculous!! Meanwhile Tessa’s blonde hair is overkill with the number of blondes on the show already. I said the same thing 3 years ago…of course it was utterly ridiculous everyone was mad at Sally for getting Summer he dream job (don’t ask lol) but there was so much the show could have done without bringing on the Marchetti angle.
