    Two Years Into Trump’s Presidency, Obama Remains a Top Target for Criticism

    It took all of one minute and nine seconds for President Trump to go after his predecessor on Friday —

    just one minute and nine seconds to re-engage in a debate that has consumed much of his own time in office over who was the better president.


    The litany of criticisms, often distorted, are familiar, but Mr. Trump has turned increasingly to Mr. Obama in recent days as a political foil.

    reflects Mr. Trump’s longstanding fixation with the former president.

    “If you look at what we’ve done, and if you look at what we’ve straightened out, the — I call it the ‘Obama-Biden mess,’”

    “When in a corner, Trump falls back on the only organizing principle he has, which is attacking Obama — and usually lying about it,

    He repeatedly questioned Mr. Obama’s citizenship as part of the false “birther” conspiracy.

    As president, Mr. Obama struck back at the White House Correspondents’ Association dinner in 2011,

    when he roasted the reality television star as a lightweight while Mr. Trump sat grim-faced.

    It is less common for presidents to take on predecessors who are more popular than they are;

    Mr. Obama was viewed
    favorably by 63 percent of those surveyed by Gallup last year,

    while Mr. Trump’s job
    approval rating is 41 percent.

    In leveling his criticisms at Mr. Obama, however, Mr. Trump routinely stretches the facts.

    "I'm Not Willing to Do That": Trump Says He Won't Take Climate Action Because It Would Threaten Corporate Profits

    The U.S. president reportedly worked to weaken G20 commitment to fighting climate crisis during summit in Osaka, Japan

    Trump told reporters during a press conference Saturday morning that he is not ignoring the threat of the climate crisis, but

    he doesn't want to take action to confront the emergency because such a move would threaten corporate profits.


    "So we have the best numbers that we've ever had recently," Trump said.

    "I'm not looking to put our companies out of business."


    "I'm not looking to create a standard that is so high that we're going to lose 20-25 percent of our production. I'm not willing to do that," Trump continued.

    "We have the cleanest water we've ever had,

    we have the cleanest air

    —you saw the reports come out recently. We have the cleanest air we've ever had.

    But I'm not willing to sacrifice the tremendous power of what we've built up over a long period of time,

    and what I've enhanced and revived."

    "The U.S. ranks poorly on smog pollution,which kills 24,000 Americans per year," according to AP.

    "On a scale from the cleanest to the dirtiest, the U.S. is at 123 out of 195 countries measured."

    Origin

    early 17th century (denoting a poll tax): from Latin, applied to the registration of citizens and property in ancient Rome, usually for taxation, from censere ‘assess’. The current sense dates from the mid 18th century.


    Definitions for progressives and liberals are negotiable when propagating radical agendas.


    did you skip over the primary definition to the latin origin when propagating your radical agendas? is the definition negotiable to you?

    Public Corruption Unit is handling Trump pal Jeff Epstein’s pros ution case —

    there could be 2nd defendant

    “The case is being handled by the Public Corruption Unit of the Southern District of New York, with assistance from the district’s human-trafficking officials and the FBI,”

    that this case has been overseen by the public corruption unit in the SDNY office.

    Highly unusual for a sex trafficking case to be handled by PCU,”

    “Also they note that the fact that the indictment won’t be unsealed until Monday is also unusual and COULD indicate that there’s a second defendant in this case,”

    Bill Barr could interfere with Trump pal Jeffrey Epstein’s prosecution: ex-FBI official

    as the head of the Justice Department — could insert himself into the case but it would be highly obvious if he tried to interfere.

    many years ago,

    Barr’s father hired Epstein to teach at the private Dalton school,

    with no college degree.

    So there’s that

    Sports bar patrons ruin Fox News segment by loudly chanting ‘ Trump’ after US wins World Cup

    World Cup viewers at a bar in Lyon, France on Sunday marred a Fox News segment by chanting profanities at President Donald Trump.

    Fox News cut to the sports bar in Lyon just moments after the U.S. women’s team won the World Cup championship.

    , the establishment’s bartender prompted a chorus of chants.

    “ Trump!” the bartender shouted.


    “ Trump!” the bar began to yell in unison.

    Internet uses US World Cup soccer win — and Megan Rapinoe’s goal — to hilariously troll Trump

    Twitter users were quick to begin trolling Donald Trump over the US Women’s World Cup win on Sunday

    after one of his most vocal critics — team co-captain Megan Rapinoe — scored the first goal on the match in a 2-0 victory.


    As one commenter was quick to point out, “Just seems fitting Rapinoe would deliver the final F U to Trump!”

    Megan Rapinoe, attacked by Trump on Twitter, just scored the first goal against the Netherlands in the Women's World Cup final.

    Bitter Fox News fans pitch a fit after US women and Rapinoe win the World Cup



    some Fox News fans were bitterly stewing over the fact that team co-captain Megan Rapinoe scored the first of the two goals that would keep the cup in the U.S.

    she told a reporter that there was no “ ing” way she would go to the White House if invited

    which has naturally made her
    a target of Fox News viewers.

    What does Jeffrey Epstein have on all of these New York billionaires

    Biographer Vickey Ward authored a piece on the

    terrifying threats that Jeffrey Epstein made to one woman’s children.

    While Ward detailed the story Saturday, she revealed Sunday that Epstein threatened her “unborn child” too.


    In an interview with CNN, Ward described a phone call where Epstein referenced that she was pregnant in a threat.

    he didn’t like the fact that I began to uncover that a lot of the stories he had told, the rich and famous in New York about himself was simply not true.”

    She revealed that Epstein would call her and each call would end with a horrifying threat.

    “At the end of the phone call, every time he talked to me he would say, ‘By the way, Vicki,’ this is off the record,

    ‘And if I don’t like this story, here’s what’s going to happen to your unborn children.’

    That was the kind of tenor of this guy.”

    After her piece in Vanity Fair, Epstein managed to get into the offices and past security to see the editor of the magazine.

    “And they had a private discussion at the end of which

    Graden Carter decided to remove the on-the-record story

    that I had alleging that Jeffrey Epstein had sexually harassed two young women, two sisters, one of them was underage,”

    We know Trash did coke parties and young girls in the 80s, girls have talked. So probably Trash and Epstein did young girls together. And of course, Trash ran his modeling agency to have access to "the girls".

    Fresh Demands for Labor Secretary Alex Acosta's Resignation Mount

    After Jeffrey Epstein Arrested for Child Sex Trafficking Charges


    Acosta has long faced intense public criticism for helping Epstein secure a "sweetheart plea deal" while serving as Miami's top federal prosecutor

    observers called on Acosta to immediately step down—bolstering
    demands that have mounted in recent months amid a legal challenge to Epstein's deal filed by survivors.

    "Acosta's actions are worthy of bipartisan outrage and should offend every American father and mother.

    Acosta betrayed the vulnerable to benefit the powerful.

    His deal for Epstein shows a disregard for child welfare, victims' rights and
    Justice Department procedures.

    Ironically, as secretary of labor, Acosta is
    responsible for monitoring human trafficking."

    Probably going to task US Attys with finding Ms of invalid census forms, which will be as successful as dubya's US Atty finding Ms of fraudulent voters.

    Trash's "uniquely dysfunctional" SHOW!

    ‘Something is rotten’: Ex-DOJ lawyer sounds the alarm on Trump appointee who quit census case

    Trump’s own politically appointed lawyers weren’t going to try and push the census question after the Supreme Court made a ruling.

    “the move away from the Federal Programs Branch means it’ll no longer be overseen by the head of that branch, James Burnham.”

    The fact that one of Trump’s own lawyers wanted out, however, was what Columbus found shocking.

    “It’s one thing — terrible and rare! — for a career lawyer to refuse to participate;

    it’s far worse when even someone on POTUS’s team won’t play along.”

    “If *he* won’t advance Trump’s new arguments, something is rotten.

    Why are Burnham and others refusing to [continue] on the case?

    Probably two reasons.

    First,

    they’re being asked to make wholly implausible arguments.

    This is extraordinary rare but it’s happened before in this administration, in the Obamacare case currently before the Fifth Circuit.

    The second,

    even bigger reason these DOJ lawyers are quitting the case is

    to avoid having to contradict prior representations to the courts

    that the Census had to be finalized by 6/30. That type of thing can lead to sanctions and discipline,
