Ryan & The Turtle BLOCKED RUSSIAN PROBE TO PROTECT TRUMP....
Are you listening?
SCUM OF THE EARTH...KKKARMA IS A BITCH!
Laughable if it wasn't so insane.
God, Amway, and Betsy Devos's FAILED SCHOOLS?
Let's all genuflect to the False Prophets lining their pockets!
Jerry L. Falwell Jr., president of Liberty University, has been asked by President Trump to head up a new task force that will identify changes that should be made to the U.S. Department of Education’s policies and procedures, Mr. Falwell told The Chronicle on Tuesday.
The exact scope, size, and mission of the task force has yet to be formally announced. But in an interview, Mr. Falwell said he sees it as a response to what he called “overreaching regulation” and micromanagement by the department in areas like accreditation and policies that affect colleges’ student-recruiting behavior, like the new “borrower defense to repayment” regulations.
“The goal is to pare it back and give colleges and their accrediting agencies more leeway in governing their affairs,” said Mr. Falwell, who said he had been discussing possible issues with several other college leaders and at least one head of an accrediting agency for the past two months. “I’ve got notebooks full of issues,” he said.
Mr. Falwell said Mr. Trump had first asked him to head up the task force in November, when the two met at Trump Tower in New York. At the time, Mr. Falwell said he had declined Mr. Trump’s offer to become U.S. education secretary because “I wanted a role that would allow me to stay at Liberty.”
Mr. Falwell praised President Trump's nominee for education secretary, Betsy DeVos, whom he met for the first time recently, at a service at the Washington National Cathedral. "The task force will be a big help to her. It will do some of the work for her."
He kept the task-force offer private until Tuesday, when Steve Bannon, President Trump's chief strategist, gave him the green light to discuss it, according to Mr. Falwell.

Woooords
Trump is truly a worthless POS. I don't understand why the right is so quiet about this debacle. If a democrat had done thus there would already be countless committees investigating it. I guess it's because the right is nothing but a bunch of hypocritical bastards.
Dear Trump Supporters: You voted to destroy your drinking water...right?
TIME FOR HUMOR

This is no joke. This is not a dry run. These aren’t tweets or television bloopers.
Donald Trump, as President of the United States, is getting people needlessly killed. In a report released at 4:56 a.m. Thursday from Reuters, two lines are deeply troubling and cannot be ignored about Trump’s first military raid — which happened this past weekend in Yemen. They state:
“U.S. military officials told Reuters that Trump approved his first covert counterterrorism operation without sufficient intelligence, ground support or adequate backup preparations.
“As a result, three officials said, the attacking SEAL team found itself dropping onto a reinforced Al Qaeda base defended by landmines, snipers, and a larger than expected contingent of heavily armed Islamist extremists.”
Now we have learned that at least 15 women and children were killed in the raid that also took the life of U.S. Navy SEAL William “Ryan” Owens.
This is not okay, but it is completely and totally predictable. Of course Donald Trump rushed into this operation “without sufficient intelligence, ground support or adequate backup operations.” He has no idea what he’s doing. He has no government or military experience. He’s never served in government a day in his life. He has openly admitted to not reading his daily briefings. Everything we know about Donald Trump has told us that he would lead us into something “without sufficient intelligence,” except now he’s not blathering on about the investigators he sent to Hawaii to find Obama’s birth certificate. Now he is leading military operations.
In addition to the civilian casualties and the loss of a Navy SEAL, the commandos were also forced to destroy a $70 million helicopter that they had to abandon as well.
Early reports on the troubling raid have also repeatedly stated that the Obama administration knew full well about the target, but did not execute the raid for “operational reasons.” What that generally means is that the Obama administration surveyed this situation and did not feel that they had the intelligence needed to run the operation. Trump, it appears, threw a middle finger in the air, and ran with the operation in spite of this. One of the three military officials who spoke to Reuters confirmed this very thing. They said, “The decision was made ... to leave it to the incoming administration, partly in the hope that more and better intelligence could be collected.”
A military official said that there was “minimal, at best” on-the-ground surveillance prior to the raid.
That explains why three different military officials told Reuters that the SEAL team quickly found itself in a nearly indefensible position without the “ground support or adequate backup preparations.”
Now here’s what I know. Had this been Hillary Clinton, who military officials said sent a SEAL team into an operation “without sufficient intelligence,” conservatives would want her head on a stick. They would launch an investigation. The new meme of the moment would switch from Benghazi to Yemen and all Fox News would talk about would be how Hillary Clinton got a precious Navy SEAL killed.
Well, that’s what Donald Trump just did. This isn’t my liberal opinion — this is what military officials told Reuters. I’m not interested in gotcha politics. We’re talking about lives here.
An 8-year-old girl, who happened to be an American citizen, was shot in the neck and killed in this raid. Did they know she was there? We don’t know. What we do know is that this raid was a damn mess and that it appears to typify the very lessons we’ve learned about this man.
Is our nation safer when our President announces a ban on people from predominantly Muslim countries? Is our nation safer when our President insults the Prime Minister of Australia and hangs up on him? Is our nation safer when civilians in Yemen are killed and a Navy SEAL loses his life in a hastily planned operation?
I think you know the answers. This joke has already gone too far. Now, it’s costing lives.
You voted for this? There is no cure for STUPID!
Still believing the Trumpian LIES to justify your unfounded HATE?
I continue to be baffled at how utterly hapless Trump’s surrogates are when it comes to justifying Trump’s travel ban. They seem not to have any coherent arguments or talking points or even facts. For example:
1. During an interview tonight with MSNBC’s Chris Matthews, Kellyanne Conway defended the ban by referring to two Iraqi refugees whom she described as the masterminds behind “the Bowling Green Massacre.” Conway explained that “most people don’t know that because it didn’t get covered.” Hello?
The reason why the Bowling Green Massacre didn’t get covered is it didn’t happen. There has never been a terrorist attack in Bowling Green, Ky., carried out by Iraqi refugees or anyone else.
The reason why the Bowling Green Massacre didn’t get covered is it didn’t happen. There has never been a terrorist attack in Bowling Green, Ky., carried out by Iraqi refugees or anyone else.
2. Conway reiterated Trump’s claims that his refugee policy is similar to “what President Obama did in 2011 when he banned visas for refugees from Iraq for six months.” More baloney. There was never a point during the Obama administration when Iraqi resettlement was stopped or banned.
3. Last weekend another senior Trump official tried to justify the travel ban by pointing to the 2015 mass shooting in San Bernardino, California. But neither of the attackers in that shooting would have been affected by Trump’s ban. One was a U.S. citizen; the other was from Pakistan and later moved to Saudi Arabia.
Is this just carelessness, or are have the Trumpists simply decided facts no longer matter? What do you think?
HaHaHa! Impotence of the Pussy Gate Grabber?
