Oh, let’s be honest here. Mnuchin just wants to turn the page from his hypocrisy, his vacay on the taxpayer’s dime, and his ugly-hearted spouse. Any other outcome is just coincidental.
Employee of Nazi sympathizer Trump and eclipse traveler Mnunchin crawls out from under his rock. When does he resign in shame?
You read my mind…!
Well I want a jackpot winning Powerball ticket.
There’s about the same chance that Munchkin gets what he wants, too.
Trump has to hate when his blackmail plans are foiled.
Our military: Don’t pay attention to Trump
Tillerson: Don’t pay attention to Trump
Mnuchin: Don’t pay attention to Trump
The courts: Don’t pay attention to Trump
Various authorized Trump spokespeople: I haven’t talked to Trump about that. Or that. Or that either.
What an eminently sensible thing to say. It’s hard to believe it’s the same guy who just took a government jet on an eclipse viewing junket, but somehow missed the path of totality.
He really meant that he wants a clean bill, as clean as a white #hermes scarf…
The eclipse was a ruse. He wanted to tell friends he had stood atop Ft. Knox.
For all their talking points, Republicans raise the national debt more than Democrats.
Okay, totally off-topic.
I get how ad-servers work. I have even explained how ad-servers work to people who have taken umbrage at the ads the ad-servers pump to this site based on the algorithms’ trying to match the interest profile of the site’s readers to the available ads and not being able to to distinguish subject matter we will like from that we will find enraging. Heck, I have even gone so far as to tell people they should just laugh at ad servers tricking advertisers into funding content they hate.
But honest to god, I have officially had all I can take of seeing ads on this site that try to lure you into whatever scammy bullshit the advertiser is selling by dissing Malia Obama. Really, really have.
Just had to get that off my chest.
But it’s much more fun taking the Full Faith and Credit of the United States hostage every few months, holding a gun to our heads and threatening to kill the hostage. It’s like murder porn for Republican’ts…
Does he now. After the sht his party pulled in the last 8 years let alone the crap he and his wife did in the last 8 days, I am compelled to laugh in his face.
I did sort of like “10 strange things doctors found in Elvis Presley scat”. I was going to print it out and put it on my refrigerator but Miss Vicky vetoed the idea.
McConnell and Ryan have said they’re certain the effort won’t run into much turbulence.
I wonder what fuss they’d be raising had Clinton won.
OT–Harvey’s already slapping the Texas coast with 50+mph gusts. I hope all in harm’s way are moving somewhere safe.
Has he met the Teavangelicals in the House?
Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin on Friday declared that he wanted to see Congress pass a "clean” bill raising the debt ceiling when lawmakers return in September.
The “clean” bill will go nicely with the “clean” coal that Chiselin’ Trump prefers. I guess that Congress is going to have to wash the bill thoroughly with soap and water:
President Donald Trump on Tuesday night told supporters at a rally in Phoenix that “clean coal” was back. Only his description of “clean coal” was scientifically wrong.
“We’ve ended the war on beautiful, clean coal. and it’s just been announced that a second, brand new coal mine where they’re going to take out clean coal — meaning they’re taking out coal, they’re going to clean it — is opening in the state of Pennsylvania,” Trump said.
His comment puzzled scientists and people with an understanding of how coal mining works.
“He clearly doesn’t know what he’s talking about,” said Pieter Tans, the lead scientist of the Global Greenhouse Gas Reference Network of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration in Boulder, Colorado.
“It sounds like he thinks that they’re going to wash the coal,” Tans told ABC News. “It doesn’t make any sense.”
For traditionally-minded republicans, it is perfectly OK to squander taxpayer money (if you don’t get caught) so long as you don’t raise tax rates. It is not OK, at least while serving in government, to wreck the economy that makes you and your primary sponsors rich.
