He really does think that itās his money.
Thereās no need to talk about walls and space forces and whatever other ponies President Toddler wants for Christmas. Later today Iām off to an event put on by the local Democrats where weāll sign the necessary petitions to get our candidates on the ballot this year. Weāve been treating every election as seriously as we can. Thatās because weāre increasing our strength and in 2020 weāll have rebuilt the blue wall and the unserious, nonsensical, ignorant, pernicious, and traitorous son of a bitch that 80,000 people in three states got elected is going to be shown the doorāof a prison. Weāre Pennsylvania Democrats, we know weāre on the front line, and we will not let you down again. People across the country are doing their part and weāre doing ours. You all have a nice day.
Elections have consequences Spanky. Your wish list budget will be DOA in the House.
Ah, so the āprioritiesā are: more theft, more corruption. Got it.
āPresident Donald Trump will be making a significant requestā
I bet you my last dollar if someone was to ask Trump about this budget you would hear crickets.
Message to Congressional Democrats. Every single cent appropriated in the next budget has to contain a requirement that it canāt be used for Don the Conās stupid wall. Every single penny. Donāt let him get away with stealing our money ā again.
From your mouth to Godās ear.
The official said Friday that the presidentās plan promises to balance the budget in 15 years.
Bill Clinton did it in 5.
OT: I posted this before but I was late to a thread. It was the last post. I would be interested to hear if folks on this thread were somewhat aware or completely aware of how the web of big money, Corporate America, Nepotism, and back-room favors among the wealthy and elites REALLY works. I have never found anything that opened my eyesā¦and made it more real than this site.

I would love for some feedback and reactions. You might play with it all day but would love to hear some TPM folks input.
Go to the top left (after the intro) and pick a company. It will stand alone in the middle of the page and you hover and choose DIRECTORS. Then pick a member and hover on one that says SHOW BOARDS.
Oh, good. Toadglans can have money for his vanity wall denied ā¦ again! They say third times the charm. Weāll see.
I also have a feeling his Space Farce will likely either be denied or granted a laughably token amount, at best.
I do really believe that we lost Pennsylvania in 2016 due to protest votes. I have no hard figures to back up my belief, but I know so many people who voted for Jill Stein or who wrote in Bernieās name, under the assumption that Hillary had PA in the bag. It broke my heart.
It should be just enough to fund a task force within DoD to develop an eye-catching logo and some spiffy caps. Maybe something Devo-ish.
Go get 'em!!
It might be worth the money if we can launch Donnie and his crew and get him off the Earth.
Of course, it would be
Iām picturing an AP reporter, a hard drinking (2% milk) two-fisted (one hand on the keyboard, the other holding a boloney sandwich on white bread) son-of-a-very- nice- mother. Tapping away, with his editor mildly telling him his deadline is in two hours and he needs that short paragraph pretty soon. Dumbing down a phrase here, substituting 'questionable actionsā for āgave foreign agents top-secret informationā and āunfortunate occuranceā for 'Earthquake swallows entire state of Alaska". He thinks back to the days of journalism school, when blood was coursing through his veins, hot to change how the world saw street parking ordinances at the county level, and smiles a bland smile, thinking he lucked into the cushiest news job on the North American Continent. The days spent working at the Rittersburg Shopper seem so far away nowā¦
What, no forests to be raked?
The Valar, to rid Arda of Morgoth, cast him out into The Void.
Put Putin on board too.
ETA: Not perfectly aptā¦but ETTD. The Valar strove to make a wondrous globe and whatever they created was marred my Morgoth Bauglir. He blighted with frost, he seared with fire. What they reared up, he attempted to cast down. In nowise did anything of The Valarās work go untouched, and in all things there echoed the sorrow and lament of what might have been. Thus death and corruption entered the world, but did serve the purpose of making brighter those things contrasted with shadow; and made joy and peace more poignant amongst the pain and strife.
To be fair, some people say that would be unfortunate.
