Nutty.,nutty, nutty. Impeach him now and lock him up now, before the WW3 he is fomenting sweeps over us.

Trump just pulled one of his dumbest moves ever.

Says who?

Could be Bush style total lie to stir war fever.

The Iran Deal FACTS: What The MSM Isn’t Telling You About The JCPOA

1) Why Trump MUST Pull Out Of The Iran Nuclear Deal
https://lidblog.com/why-president-trump-should-kill-jcpoa/ America was misled by former President Obama, former Secretary of State Kerry and their cronies when trying to sell the JCPOA to America. Additionally, parts of the deal were hidden from the public, and the Obama administration lied to America about other parts. Heck, the administration admitted it, in a New York Times Magazine piece Ben Rhodes explained how he led the administration’s efforts to misrepresent the truth in order “to sell” the JCPOA to the press. This post fills in the blanks.
2) Claims That Iran Is Complying With The JCPOA Aren’t True
https://lidblog.com/claim-iran-complying-with-jcpoa/ Whether you agree with the President’s decision or not, any claim that we should stay in the deal because Iran is complying with the JCPOA is simply not true. In some cases, we know that Iran has violated the terms of the deal, in other cases, the IAEA hasn’t done its job so we don’t know if the rogue regime is compliant.

3) Netanyahu Proves Iran Lied About Nuclear Program (With Video & Bibi’s PowerPoint)
https://lidblog.com/netanyahu-proves-iran-lied-jcpoa/ Using information secretly gathered from Iran and verified by the United States, Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu exposed a major lie in the information the Iranians supplied to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). That data was a required to be turned over before the JCPOA could be implemented. In other words, the entire agreement was based on a lie and should never have been implemented.

Since 2000, the Social Security Administration has been forced to close one out of 10 of its field offices—125 offices out of 1,250—because of budget cuts. Since Republicans have been unable to cut the benefits themselves, they've gone after the SSA.

In addition, all 533 Social Security Administration "contact sites"—locations that serve remote, rural populations on a weekly or monthly basis—have closed, said leaders of the union that represents Social Security employees.
The most recent closures, which have not been publicly announced, come on the heels of the shutdown of offices in Milwaukee and Chicago in the past year, which elected officials also protested to no avail. An SSA spokeswoman attributed the Arlington closure to an expiring lease and an inability to find space nearby—an explanation that elected officials in Virginia dispute. […]

In a letter they sent last week to Nancy A. Berryhill, the SSA's deputy commissioner of operations, six Democratic state lawmakers who represent Arlington said the Edsall Road office "is much less accessible to Arlington residents, and already serves large constituencies in Alexandria and Fairfax."

"Those with the most complicated cases and greatest need often benefit from in-person services," said the letter, signed by Dels. Alfonso Lopez, Mark Levine and Patrick Hope and Sens. Adam Ebbin, Barbara Favola and Janet Howell. "Many of these individuals are also among the least mobile and the most dependent on public transportation."

Since 2010, the SSA has also lost 3,500 staff, and the Trump administration wants to cut another 1,000. This means horrible wait time for the people who manage to get to a field office, or even those trying to access help through the phone. This isn't a population that's well-connected to the internet, the supposed solution to these cutbacks. Seniors still lag well behind other age groups in internet use and access.

This is no accident. Destroying popular, effective government agencies is the GOP’s thing. Destroying this one, making people unhappy and distrustful of Social Security, is how they are slow but surely chipping away at it.

but would not have happened if Bush had quit lying about it and pushing for invasion.

Since there were none, Bush had to be lying through his teeth.

Donald Trump Ends the Obama Mirage

It took a small boy to say the emperor had no clothes. And it took Donald Trump to say that Barack Obama's foreign policy legacy was a superficial and dangerous mirage.

Yevgeny Serebrennikov, first deputy head of the defence and security committee in the Russian Upper House of Parliament, told the RIA news agency that Trump's decision puts the Korean peace process in doubt.

US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo is scheduled to arrive in North Korea soon to help further pave the way for forthcoming talks with the isolated regime.

Vladimir Chizhov, Russian envoy to the European Union, separately told RIA that Russia will continue efforts to keep the Iran nuclear deal functioning.

It's true, North Korea, and the rest of the World, knows America's word is ****.
