But on the actual topic, how virtuous and adult of our president to issue fake news awards. What a fine example to set for our young people. Dog shit.


Speaking of our young people... they're being fed a steady diet of lies, half-truths, out-and-out distortions etc. by the fake news media which try to pass it off as legitimate news. Many, many news outlets are now nothing more than Libtard propaganda machines who will scrap the bottom of the barrel in order to further their agenda.

You mentioned dog shit... that reminded me of CNN.

Well we were speaking about Trump, but I'll go there with you. Dog shit like Rush Limbaugh, Hannity, Howie Carr, Brietbart, and their ilk have always been conservative propaganda machines. There was never a time when they were honest. There was never a time when they didn't push racial divisiveness. Never a time when they didn't pit their listeners against other decent Americans. Never a time when they didn't lie for money. Right wing media is not interested in spreading the truth. The "fake news media" is nowhere near as bad real fake news. Conservatives with intellectual honesty already know this.

The one Republican I can stand is Richard Painter. He turns up on Bill Maher and some of the cable news shows from time to time. He was involved with that lawsuit against Trump over the emoluments clause. He shits all over Trump on Twitter, too. He might actually hate Trump more than I do, if that's possible.

Sebastian Gorka was White House aide while a fugitive from Hungarian justice
The White House employed a Hungarian fugitive for seven months, according to an arrest warrant that appears to show that Sebastian Gorka, a former adviser to Donald Trump, was wanted there on weapons charges as of September 2016.

The warrant, first reported by Hungarian online outlet 444 and BuzzFeed News is for “firearm or ammunition abuse”.

Gorka, a former Breitbart writer and Trump campaign surrogate, served as “deputy assistant” to the president during his White House tenure, but the exact nature of his role was vague. Gorka was reportedly forced out last August, by the chief of staff, John Kelly, who had recently assumed the role.

Details on the alleged crime triggered the warrant were scarce. The site 444 noted that it could have resulted from an incident as far back as 2009. Hungarian police did not respond to a request for comment.

Gorka told the Guardian that “since I moved to the US in 2008”, a year before the possible 2009 incident, he would decline to comment.

“More #FAKENEWS,” he then added.

He did not reply to a question about whether the incident could have occurred on a visit back to his native Hungary.

Gorka has a longstanding and well-documented interest in guns. He told Recoil magazine in November that his “everyday carry” includes two pistols, a knife, a tourniquet – and for good measure – a copy of the US constitution. In February 2016, he had a pistol confiscated after attempting to bring it through Washington’s Reagan national airport.

Born in the UK to Hungarian-born parents, Gorka spent much of his career in the Hungarian ministry of defense working on issues of counter-terrorism. Since he became a fixture of the Trump campaign and administration, numerous experts have raised questions about his formal credentials and his work in the field of counter-terrorism, and noted his connections to the “alt-right” in the US and fringe rightwing groups in Hungary.

Why are Trumplings getting brave all of a sudden? Same on Rationalia. They've been quiet for a while, too embarrassed to speak, and now they're rearing their ugly heads again, tripling-down on this train wreck.

What's changed?

Never heard of him. If he's anything like Trump, I should probably keep it that way.

Trump is still in charge, as opposed to all those who said he would be killed or fired in the first weeks. Gives them legitimacy.

Trump to overhaul HHS office, shield health workers with moral objections
The Trump administration on Thursday will announce an overhaul of the HHS civil rights office as part of a broader plan to protect health workers who don't want to perform abortions, treat transgender patients seeking to transition or provide other services for which they have religious or moral objections.

TRUMP LEADING THE ‘MOST UNETHICAL PRESIDENCY’ IN MODERN HISTORY, ETHICS GROUP SAYS IN FIRST-YEAR REVIEW
A nonprofit government watchdog group has accused Donald Trump of leading the “most unethical presidency” in modern times and possibly in the nation’s history, in a report published Tuesday.

Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW) castigated Trump in its report, “The Most Unethical Presidency: Year One,” saying his utter dismissal of standard ethics practices has led to legal challenges and scandals that have tainted the office.

“The Trump administration is confronted by an extraordinary scale and scope of legal and ethics scandals,” the report said. “It is unrivaled in the modern era, and perhaps in the history of the nation, for a first-year administration.”
