" Mark Morgan, who previously had a brief stint as the chief of Border Patrol, made the comments — which just resurfaced — in a January interview on Tucker Carlson’s Fox News show. “I’ve been to the detention facilities where I’ve walked up to these individuals that are so-called ‘minors,’ 17 or under,” Morgan said. “And I’ve looked at them and I’ve looked at their eyes, Tucker, and I said, ‘That is a soon-to-be MS-13 gang member.’ It’s unequivocal.” "

Quote :

"Housing and Urban Development Secretary Ben Carson on Tuesday appeared to think that a freshman Democrat was questioning him about Oreo cookies during his congressional testimony, when she was in fact asking him about foreclosure properties. Rep. Katie Porter, a California Democrat, asked Carson about real estate owned properties -- or REOs, properties that fail to sell at foreclosure auctions -- during his testimony before the House Financial Services Committee. "I'd also like you to get back to me if you don't mind to explain the disparity in REO rates," Porter said to Carson. "Do you know what an REO is?" Carson replied, "An Oreo?" "No, not an Oreo," Porter said. "An R-E-O. REO." Carson responded, "Real estate ..." before pausing. Porter asked, "what's the O stand for?," to which Carson answered, "organization." Porter replied, "Owned, real estate owned. That's what happens when a property goes to foreclosure, we call it an R-E-O.""

"America is the land of freedom, as any politician will be happy to tell you. What you don’t hear quite so often is that the stuff under the land is also apparently made of freedom as well. That is, at least according to a press release this week from the Department of Energy (DoE). Mark W Menezes, the US undersecretary of energy, bestowed a peculiar honorific on our continent’s natural resources, dubbing it “freedom gas” in a release touting the DoE’s approval of increased exports of natural gas produced by a Freeport LNG terminal off the coast of Texas. “Increasing export capacity from the Freeport LNG project is critical to spreading freedom gas throughout the world by giving America’s allies a diverse and affordable source of clean energy,” he said."

" "I am at the end of my career," Barr told CBS News' Jan Crawford in a televised interview that aired Friday. "Everyone dies, and I am not, you know, I don't believe in the Homeric idea that, you know, immortality comes by, you know, having odes sung about you over the centuries, you know?"... ... Barr told CBS he knew he’d come under fire during his tenure and that “any attorney general in this period is going to end up losing a lot of political capital.” But the 69-year-old isn’t worried about that because, as he said in the interview, “at my stage in life, it really doesn't make any difference."

I know it's not a cabinet position, but I don't give a shit and I wanted to post it.

North Korea bringing the hilarious insults on Bolton. Human defect. Has a different mental structure from ordinary people. This shit is gold.

Yeah Shanahan left to "spend more time with his family" but the real reason is domestic violence which the administration knew about awhile back but covered it up.

um...

Can we talk about how insane it is that Alex Acosta is still a part of Trumps cabinet and the media never asks him about it?

7/8/2019 10:13:52 AM

they found a locked safe with CD's labeled "Young [Name] + [Name]", sounds like blackmail material



i hope they are able to take down anyone connected to Epstein too

7/8/2019 1:48:49 PM

The AG telling trump its legal to put the citizenship question on the census despite the SC ruling is a constitutional crisis

7/8/2019 6:41:52 PM

What recourse is there if they up and ignore a ruling and go ahead? Doesn’t any legal action have to be initiated by the AG?

I think this is probably just an effort for Trump to say to his base, “I tried everything!” but it’s still a bad look for an already really bad AG.

7/8/2019 7:40:10 PM

If the president orders people to break the law, I’m assuming the rule where congress has to impeach and charge still applies

Going to be interesting

I think we’re definitely headed in that direction.

7/8/2019 8:46:06 PM

^^ congress can impeach trump or the AG, hence crisis

7/8/2019 9:21:09 PM

So self-impeachment is the only way.

Trump labor secretary who cut Epstein deal plans to slash funds for sex trafficking victims

Quote :

"Alexander Acosta, the US labor secretary under fire for having granted Jeffrey Epstein immunity from federal prosecution in 2008, after the billionaire was investigated for having run a child sex trafficking ring, is proposing 80% funding cuts for the government agency that combats child sex trafficking."

pizzagate people are going to be PISSED at trump and acosta for this!

7/10/2019 10:07:56 AM

And Acosta is out

7/12/2019 10:04:17 AM

Yay, more non-confirmed acting cabinet members.

And Republicans don’t care because they are shitty, power-hungry people and Democrats don’t care because they are feeble, weak-minded and gutless.

7/12/2019 10:48:01 AM

Trump always manages to replace a departing person with someone much worse.

7/13/2019 12:25:29 AM

It's C R A Z Y that the labor secretary resigning because he went easy on a child sex trafficker is like 3rd rate news now

Naw. More of the same. Status quo.

JFC, how many people in Trump's sphere are involved index trafficking?

Another move in power consolidation. I cant believe this is happening right in front of everyone's eye's and we're just letting it happen. Getting uglier day by day

im going to take an unflattering picture and send a resume in

8/3/2019 11:49:23 AM

Seems like trump is going to get pressured into giving a speech, anyone want to guess what this would look like?

Entire speech is going to be about absolving himself personally of responsibility, minimizing the threat of white supremacy, and probably throw something out about building the wall.

"We have all been there, told a joke at the wrong time and to the wrong group. Apparently, not even the Secretary of Agriculture Sonny Perdue is above the “tough crowd” feeling. When Perdue tried to crack a joke at the farmer’s expense over the current trade war between the U.S. and China, not everyone in the crowd found it entertaining. “I had a farmer tell me this in Pennsylvania,” Perdue said at a farm show in Minnesota last Wednesday, according to Agri-Pulse. “He said, ‘What do you call two farmers in a basement?’ I said ‘I don’t know, what do you call them?'” Perdue said the farmer said: “A whine cellar.” There was some uncomfortable laughter in the crowd, but that was quickly overshadowed by others who were upset and booed the joke due to the insensitive timing and nature. The joke was told two days after China declared a halt to purchasing American agricultural products as retaliation from Trump increasing tariffs on Chinese goods. Can you say “Too soon?” "

A speech the acting Secretary of the Navy gave aboard the Theodore Roosevelt.

Google moldy speech and you'll find it.

4/6/2020 6:55:55 PM

It should be noted, that Modly flew halfway around the goddamn world, just to say to thousands of sailors 'Hey, you know your last CO? The one I fired and who you loved? He was a piece of shit. Oh, and fuck the media and Biden'

Like goddamn dude, lead from the fucking top. Even if you had a legit reason to fire Crozier, that was not the way to handle the aftermath
