A senior White House official just defined the Trump Doctrine, “We’re America, es”
“The Trump Doctrine is ‘We’re America, .’ That’s the Trump Doctrine,” the official explained.
Another described it as “We’re America, es.”
“People criticize [Trump] for being opposed to everything Obama did, but we’re justified in canceling out his policies.
There’s the Obama Doctrine,
and the ‘ Obama’ Doctrine.
We’re the ‘ Obama’ Doctrine,” said the friend.

An ex-wine blogger is reviewing State Department staffers for their loyalty to Trump
here's a story about State Department staffers being rigorously vetted to measure their personal loyalty to Donald Trump.
And they’re being vetted by a Trump-appointed ex-wine blogger, because everything is stupid now.We've got a lobbyist turned wine blogger turned Delores Umbridge wannabe assembling lists of
Mari Stull, a former food and beverage lobbyist-turned-
wine blogger under the name “Vino Vixen,”trash!
has reviewed the social media pages of State Department staffers for
signs of ideological deviation.
She has researched the names of government officials to determine whether they signed off on Obama-era policies
— though signing off does not mean officials personally endorsed them but merely cleared them through the bureaucratic chain.
And she has inquired about Americans employed by international agencies,
including the World Health Organization and the United Nations,
asking their colleagues when they were hired and by whom,
according the officials.
which State Department and international U.S. government employees are sufficiently loyal to the Russian-backed traitor in the White House,
and which might need to be purged.
It's the sort of thing that would, all by itself, have rated as a mega-scandal in any administration before this one.
In this one, though, it's just another episode of wanton crookedness.
This hunt for those personally disloyal to Hair Furor, like those in other departments, is already having significant effects within the government agencies conservatives are trying to wreck.
Foreign Policy reports that three deputy assistant secretaries of state are "said to be on the way out";
it's implied that that's because they're fed up with the Trump appointees, not because they're being forced out.
And their source suggests "everyone" in the department is similarly "looking to bail."
Because that's the thing with incompetent, ideological, and dim-witted management:
it makes the competent people quit in disgust.

A FOX News host just blindsided Trump and demanded he fire a key White House cabinet member
President Trump’s
Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross,
who is playing a key role in the administration’s recent tariffs on steel and other products, has blatant conflicts of interest that are so extreme that Fox News host Steve Hilton, in a segment called “Swamp Watch,” said yesterday that
he “is in a different league of swampiness.”
Hilton pointed out Ross got rich investing in steel companies and co-founded a shipping company, Nautical Bulk Holdings, that currently ships steel to the U.S. from
South Korea, which is one of the countries that has been granted a temporary exemption from Trump’s steel tariffs.
“He’s negotiating over South Korean steel imports while making money from importing South Korean steel,” Hilton said.Hilton also reported that
Ross’s chief of staff at Commerce is still listed as a director of Nautical Bulk Holdings despite claiming a year ago she resigned from the company.
Hilton points out that
there is no evidence that Ross has resigned from a number of companies that put him in a conflict of interest
even though he too made that promises more than a year ago.
Hilton also revealed that companies in which Ross has significant ownership also have ties to companies owned by or connected to Russia, China and Venezuela.
Ross is a part owner of Diamon Shipping, and once served as Chairman of the company.
Its shipping clients include Lukoil and Novatek, both Russian energy companies, Russian state-owned natural gas company GAZPROM, and PetroChina, which is owned by the Chinese government.
Trump is next targeting automobile and auto parts imports for tariffs
which raises another question about
Ross, who owns part of the shipping company TRF (Transportation and Recovery Fund), which imports lots of auto parts.
“Do you think,” asks Hilton, “that might affect Wilbur Ross’ handling of President Trump’s tariffs on auto imports?”
While the federal conflict of interest rules are fuzzy about what the president can do and own, they are explicit when it comes to cabinet members like Ross, who is clearly in violation of the law.

And of course, Ross bought into the Cypress bank that is used by Russian oligarchs and mafiya to hide/launder their $Bs.
FOX News host Laura Ingraham just called on Trump to fire top White House cabinet member
Ingraham, who was a lawyer before becoming a conservative author and broadcaster, let loose on the beleaguered Pruitt today in a tweet inspired by the latest stories about his efforts to get his wife a job using his government position and government staff to help.
“Earlier this month, Republican Senator Joni Ernst said she would support his firing,”
Another prominent Republican, Senator Chuck Grassley,” add, “publicly speculated that the EPA was under the influence of the oil industry, in contrast to Trump’s earlier protestations about draining the swamp in Washington.”

Hilarious that Repugs and right wing hate media are upset about Pruitt being exposed for BLATANT, REPEATED corruption (the exposure is their problem, not the corruption),
but not a word about his destruction of the EPA and his willful manslaughter of Ms of Americans by increasing pollution
This thread in a nuts
eh, not much sillier than Obama bowing and about as significant.
Complete non-issue except for the fact that Trump supporters went "REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE" endlessly over Obama's bow.

Trump complains that oil prices are too high ... never mind that it's because of his policies
In mid-May, US crude oil futures topped $72 a barrel over concerns
related to Trump’s destabilizing the Middle East by breaking the Iran treaty,
re-implementing a sanctions regime, and
promoting the ongoing blockade of Qatar.
Prices were also driven up because Trump stiffened sanctions on Venezuela.
Since then, oil prices have eased almost 10 percent over reports that
Qatar was mending bridges with Trump by giving Jared Kushner a $1.8 billion lifeline,
that Kushner’s pal Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman was going to do Trump a solid by opening the taps a little wider
, and that Vladimir Putin was going to back that play by ignoring limits on Russian oil production.
This is actually how the world works now.
But the drop to around $66 a barrel makes Trump’s morning tweet a little … odd.

Oil prices are too high, OPEC is at it again. Not good!

And, because there is always a tweet from the past …
The average national gas price in October 2012 was $3.69. It’s currently $2.96. SoDonald J. Trump
✔@realDonaldTrump
Gas prices are at crazy levels--fire Obama!
9:14 AM - Oct 22, 2012
Trump can maybe lay some claim to not being at the level he set for presidential firing.
However, the price is well above the $2.37 that Trump inherited when he moved into the White House, and
it’s up by almost a dollar from where it was of November 2016.

And now Dems are doing it so it's a non issue?
eh, I don't see any dedicated threads here
I've basically only seen Dems bringing this up as a mocking reaction to previous criticisms of Obama.
Both instances were non issues. MAGA s deserve to be mocked for their leader doing it because they set the precedent.
Page: Trump's "not ever going to become president, right? Right?!"
Strzok: "No. No he's not. We'll stop it."
So...because re s did something, other re s should stoop to their level. Makes sense. We live in very stupid times.
I figured if anyone started one, it was Yonivore.

four dedicated threads in this forum about Obama bowing over a period of a year and a half.
in a week all the re s will be talking about something else -- DJT rapidly cycles BS.
