I didn't know Fox had done this but I'm not at all surprised they did. Are you?


Well, one thing that's been repeatedly proven about muslims. There's nobody they would like to kill more than another muslim.

@blatham,
Well, some are even making money with the presidential tweets:
Quote:
Techies have devised a program to execute quickfire stock trades to take advantage of President Donald Trump's Twitter habit of blackballing individual companies.
And the president's tweets are saving puppies, since when the program earns money, the funds are donated to an animal welfare group.
The "Trump & Dump" artificial intelligence program identifies Trump's market-moving tweets, assesses instantaneously whether the sentiment is positive or negative and then executes a speedy trade.

Lies, lies, lies
Quote:
Trump, yet again, claims credit for decisions that were already made before he became president. Trump stated he “was able to get $600 million approximately off those planes,” thereby ending the “difficulty” and “no movement” in the program.

Yet the Pentagon had already announced cost reductions of roughly $600 million before Trump began meeting with Lockheed Martin’s chief executive. Once again, we award Trump [four] Pinocchios for taking undue credit.

@Walter Hinteler,
Well, as Trump said last week, it is possible Lincoln was a better president. Possible.

Articles like this one are popping up.

Political scientists are speaking up about Trump's immigration ban as a "shock event."

I'm not sure they're accurate, but I think we should all know what it is.

By the way, you're also wrong about the "administrative" branch.

There is no such thing. Administrative agencies are merely a subset of the executive branch.

@blatham,
European Council President Donald Tusk puts the USA in a row with China, Russia, and Islamists
Quote:
European Council President Donald Tusk said on Tuesday that U.S. President Donald Trump has joined Russia, China and radical Islam among threats to Europe and called on Europeans to stick together to avoid domination by three other continental powers.

In a letter to national leaders before a summit that he will chair in Malta on Friday to prepare the Union's future after Britain leaves, the conservative former Polish prime minister said Trump's more protectionist trade policy offered the EU a chance and it should do more now to set up free trade deals.

Saying the EU faces its biggest challenges in its 60-year history, Tusk said an "assertive China", "Russia's aggressive policy" toward its neighbors, "radical Islam" fuelling anarchy in the Middle East and Africa were key external threats. These, he said, "as well as worrying declarations by the new American administration, all make our future highly unpredictable".

If Muslims killed 6 white Christians in a Church, Trump would be obsessed & half of America would change their profile pics to Canadian flag

We all understand the 100% certainty of this, I presume.

@Walter Hinteler,
The obvious reason is countries like Saudi Arabia and Egypt routinely share reliable intelligence with us and the other countries don't... You don't have to be a national security expert or genius to figure this out.

Yes. There's no confusion regarding Bannon's explicitly stated intent to destroy the EU nor moves from this administration to align with the far right in Europe and with Russia.
