Exxon CEO Rex Tillerson is Suing to Stop a Fracking Development Outside Dallas
Just a few days after the Weather Channel published a damning, in-depth reportdo enting how natural gas drilling is wreaking havoc on Texas' air quality, a group of wealthy property owners outside Dallas are dealing with another dark side of the energy boom: a really ugly water tower.
Residents of Bartonville are concerned about the tower for a number of reasons and are fighting the project in court. One issue, they say in the lawsuit, is that the tower "will sell water to oil and gas explorers for fracking shale formations leading to traffic with heavy trucks on FM 407, creating a noise nuisance and traffic hazards."
And, as the Wall Street Journal just uncovered, one of those angry homeowners trying to stop the tower and its fracking-related business is none other than Exxon CEO Rex Tillerson. The lawsuit already has a winner, and that winner is irony.
Exxon and its subsidiary XTO make loads of money from natural gas production, and
Tillerson doesn't like it when others complain about the potentially negative consequences

During the campaign, Mr. Trump said time and time again that he would not cut Medicare. And yet his pick for secretary of health and human services, Tom Price, proposed the deepest cuts to Medicare in the past decade of House budgets. Trump must keep his word. This is a life and death issue for millions of people."

Rex Tillerson, an Aggressive Dealmaker Whose Ties With Russia May Prompt Scrutiny

Trump’s senior advisor’s long history with extremist groups has just been exposed
Kellyanne Conway — one of President-elect Trump’s top advisors — has a long and sordid history with racist groups targeting immigrants and Muslims.
Before becoming Donald Trump’s campaign manager, Conway ran a polling firm that conducted a skewed poll aimed at depicting a significant portion of Muslims as radical extremists willing to commit violence in order to establish rule by Sharia, or strict Islamic law. The poll itself was done for the Center for Security Policy, which is an innocuously named group run by anti-Muslim ideologue Frank Gaffney.
Gaffney, who used to work in the Reagan administration, is known for propagating extremist conspiracy theories about radicalized Muslims infiltrating the highest levels of the U.S. government and the media, earning him the le of “one of America’s most notorious Islamophobes” by the Southern Poverty Law Center.
Gaffney once claimed that President Obama is a secret Muslim, and also claimed that top Clinton aide Huma Abedin was one of several members of the Muslim Brotherhood secretly working to establish an Islamic caliphate in the United States.
Conway’s work for Gaffney’s firm wasn’t merely a cold contract job — she openly endorsed his views in an interview on his podcast, which was about the poll of 600 Muslims she conducted. The poll stated that 51 percent of respondents would prefer to live under Sharia law, and that 20 percent of those asked would not hesitate to use violence to establish Sharia law.
“I think this is important because the answer from lots of folks always is, ‘Look, don’t cast a wide net and call all Muslims
nonpeaceful and violent and adhering to jihad and Shariah and bloodthirsty,'” Conway said on Gaffney’s podcast. “Fine. However, look at the data. The Muslims living in the US themselves—27 percent of them, anyway—say that this is what the purpose of jihad is, to either punish nonbelievers (16 percent) or, the other 11 percent, to undermine non-Muslim states.”
However, Conway’s poll wasn’t conducted in accordance with scientifically accepted sampling methods, the likes of which are strictly adhered to by prominent pollsters like FiveThirtyEight and NBC News/Wall Street Journal. For the Gaffney poll, Conway simply conducted the survey through online opt-ins, meaning those who responded sought out the poll as opposed to being randomly selected. As a pollster, Conway likely knew this would skew the results in favor of more ideological positions, in order to help advance Gaffney’s Islamophobic messaging.
“As this poll was conducted among an online group of opt-in respondents, we did not publish a margin of error or otherwise advise our client that the data were statistically representative of the entire US Muslim population,” an anonymous employee of Conway’s told New York Magazine.
In addition to her work denigrating Muslims, Conway also put her firm to work for the
Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR), which has been labeled as a white supremacist-affiliated hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center.
After Trump’s election, FAIR couldn’t have been prouder of its history with Conway.
“FAIR began working with Kellyanne Conway as far back as 1996, and we have used her for polling virtually every year since then,” FAIR president Dan Stein told Mother Jones. “We take it as a certain amount of personal pride,is that when she became the campaign manager for Donald Trump—first successful woman to lead, you know, a successful presidential campaign—she was possessed of intimate professional knowledge of the immigration issue as it related to the voter concerns.”
“We saw that influence helping to shape Donald Trump’s positions and statements once she came on board,” Stein continued.
Conway, in addition to ex-Breitbart CEO Steve Bannon, remains one of President-elect Trump’s closest advisors, which makes Trump all the more likely to put his nativist positions on immigration and Muslims into place as president.

John Bolton Set To Be #2 At State Department
He will also be paired with former U.N. Ambassador John Bolton as his deputy secretary of state, one of the sources added, with Bolton handling day-to-day management of the department.
John Bolton? This is hardly unexpected, but holy . Bolton is a lunatic. Here he is on Fox News today:
Bolton is seriously suggesting that the hacks into Democratic Party computers might have been false flag operations, presumably with the goal of making it looklike Russia supported Donald Trump. This would ruin Trump's reputation and guarantee a win for Hillary Clinton.
This is completely nuts. It's deranged. It's unhinged. And it doesn't even make sense on its own terms. No campaign in its right mind would do this, and certainly not a campaign desperately trying to keep the word "email" in any form out of the public discourse.
Dark insinuations of false flag operations are a favorite among conspiracy theorists. They think it makes them sound sophisticated and worldly.
This means that either Bolton is a conspiracy theorist or else he doesn't mind sounding like one if that's what it take to defend his side. And soon he'll be the #2 guy at State, the person really running things while Tillerson provides the public face. God help us.

Wall Street Won Bigly By Running Against Wall Street
In the closing ad of Donald Trump’s presidential campaign, he promised to oppose a “global power structure that is responsible for the economic decisions that have robbed our working class, stripped our country of its wealth, and put that money into the pockets of a handful of large corporations and political en ies.”
The ad never used the words “Wall Street,” but the faces you see filling up the the screen — many of whom just happen to be Jewish — include Goldman Sachs chairman Lloyd Blankfein.
Since won the presidency, Trump has hired three current or former executives of the investment bank for key economic positions to serve in or along side his cabinet of billionaire donors and fired generals, as
they plot what is beginning to look like the biggest transfer of wealth to the richest in human history.
Meanwhile, the GOP-led House Oversight Committee plans to focus on in the first definition of its name — “an unintentional failure to notice or do something.” The committee will let Trump loot undisturbed, so long as he lets the GOP’s ruthless ambitions for hollowing out the middle class go unchecked.
And Wall Street loves it — as you can tell by the extended orgasm the stock market has been enjoying over Trump. From his massive tax breaks for the rich to Republican plans to privatize everything from Medicare to roads to schools, the bankers won bigly.

Incoming EPA Chief Scott Pruitt’s Other Target: Clean Water
Pruitt is well known for his legal challenges to President Barack Obama’s Clean Power Plan, but his assault on clean-water protections has been just as fierce.
In 2015,
Pruitt led a multi-state lawsuit against Obama’s Clean Water Rule,
a regulation aimed at protecting source water for one in three Americans. As with his Clean Power Plan suit, Pruitt and his allies succeeded in blocking the rule’s implementation.
“I don’t think he’s found an EPA rule he hasn’t wanted to sue over,” says Michael Kelly, Clean Water Action’s national communications director.
Trump said repeatedly on the campaign trail that ensuring “crystal clear, clean water” would be a priority for his administration.
Yet his proposed policies and cabinet picks, particularly his selection of Pruitt, tell a very different story.
At a time when much of the nation’s water infrastructure is nearing the end of its lifespan, and federal funding for water quality enforcement is at historic lows, the incoming administration threatens to cripple the EPA’s ability to protect clean drinking water nationwide.
“This is about protecting an irreplaceable part of life: safe, efficient, affordable water,” says Henry Henderson, Midwest program director at the Natural Resources Defense Council.
“Gutting these protections is not something I believe the American people voted for in this election.”

Carly Fiorina emerges from Trump Tower — and shamelessly compares Trump to Shaquille O’Neal
“It was an honor to meet with the president-elect,” Fiorina told reporters before praising the “really cool” sports memorabilia in Trump’s office.
“I was particularly taken by Shaq O’Neil’s shoe,” she explained. “I guess it takes a champion to know a champion.”

Also, she confirms that there is "no problem down there", as she could barely get it in her mouth, and that it will be a long time before the pain in her patriotic anus subsides. She took one For America.
typical misogynist leftwingnut
This is the conservative forum. Liberals come here to get ted on with facts and reality because they're masochists.
Seems like more conservatives here since the election (or maybe 2 weeks before since I wasn't here).
Nope. You're right. They were nowhere to be found when they thought Hillary was gonna win. But they're here now to e the football.
And there ain't one thing wrong with that.
And for anybody to grudge us this e renders you infinitesimal in size.
I'd prefer it if your were able to post a coherent thought, but e away. You'll be winded by the victory lap and slither back up to the NBA forum soon enough.
That's how much you know...I've been here since they first started talking Trump out of it.
lmcontrollinao!!!!!!
After the e the game continues.
Careful for the tsunami of backlash if it does not go well. It happened to the Democrats. Can't say I'm upset. Your up. Step to the plate and quit whining about the pitches being too fast. The media, the media... STFU and play ya big babies.
