More echos of the Saturday Night Massacre are appearing in the recent purge of Justice Department Attorneys. According to reports in yesterday's Boston Globe one of the fired attorneys was investigating reports that Tom Price, Trump's secretary of Health and Human Services, was trading pharmaceutical and medical stocks at the same time he was crafting health policy as a Congressman.

I'm not sure what impeachable offense he might have committed yet.

According to today's Washinton Post il Donald made direct threats against any Republicans that did not support TrumpCare.
quote: Now Trump would certainly not be the first President to try to bully Congress but unfortunately he's not bright enough it seems to know how to do it. Instead he makes it public so if they cave in he will be seen as the bully he is and if they don't it will simply be yet another in the long line of Trump failures. And if he thinks ObamaCare was a disaster it will be nothing like the disaster called TrumpCare.

Is it possible that even with control of both Houses of Congress, the Executive and likely the Courts today's Republicans are really as incompetent as they appear and that they will not be able to actually accomplish anything during the next four years except piss off the electorate?

The reason is that for at least the last quarter century the Republican Party has concentrated on electing willfully ignorant candidates and once they are elected making sure they remain ignorant. This seems to have been a common program at local, state and federal levels. It has been a race to scrape the bottom of the bucket and elect the most ignorant and incompetent Republicans that can be found.
They have done it well.

It looks like il Donald is about to take yet another major step in curing global warming and threats to the environment with a directive to Congress to defund all efforts by NASA to look back at the Earth or work with other agencies.

Daughter has office in White House and security clearance.
Son-in-law gets tapped to fix government with business ideas. (hopefully not the ideas that lead to all of Trumps business failures, bankruptcies and law suits)

The rape of US citizens continues as Trump opens up those lands, air and water that actually belongs to all of us to sell those resources to corporations.

The Trump Administration is taking even more steps to try to whitewash the Russian Connection by trying to limit and redact Sally Yates testimony before Congress.

Trump says that the Democrats and Freedom Caucus should be fought.
The interesting thing is all of the members of the Freedom Caucus are Conservative Republicans. How many more groups can he piss off this week?

Percy writes: I agree with the President politically, but he's a nut-case. I'm still not sure how anyone can agree with Trump politically when so far I haven't been able to figure out what Trump's political stance is? So far there has been no real political statement from trump that won't fit on a decal; a full bumper sticker not needed.

Once again il Donald's mouth seems to have gotten his ass in trouble. Now it is another Federal Judge that is taking Trumps comments as justification for allowing another suit to proceed.
quote: source And this was related to one of Trumps less obnoxious, less barbaric speeches. What's more there is a clear pattern to il Donald's dangerous and brutish speeches that can be drawn on for supporting evidence of both intent and direction. One of the more interesting claims by Trump's lawyers is the following:
quote:source Trump must be hiring lawyers from Baylor it seems. Girls raped at a party assumed the risk when they decided to wear short skirts and so the "Brothers" should not be held liable.
