Why are the Dems not insisting that Bannon be subject to a senate hearing? Was that a bad interpretation of the rules? C’mon, Dems, show some fucking SPINE!!!

Keep it up!!

The GOP is not credible–it’s telling one lie after the next, just as they did when trying to counter Obama. Then it kind of worked because it was off the base of a credible president. Now they are saying the same kinds of lies, but not in response to some intelligent move by Obama, but just out of thin air. And they are looking more and more ridiculous every day.

White supremacist president Bannon is incompetent.

Trump’s constant, distracting, attention-seeking is part of president Bannon’s insdious, hyper-manipulative strategy. We’re sick of it.

He looks more like a mottled gray supremacist lately.

Mr. Bannon is getting covered quite a bit:

Here are just a couple of articles from the WaPo on Bannon from the last couple of days:

The following includes information about a “think tank” he is setting up in the White House:

What about a SCotUS nominee who formed a “Fascism Forever” club in prep school? Who chooses the Kissinger quote, “The illegal we do immediately; the unconstitutional takes a little longer”?

Too bad she didnt use the sound bite to connect bannons advising dumpster on the failed yemen con op that killed woman and children, and a US soldier…

ALl she did was go off on him being a white supremacist. If your going to talk shit like a republican you gotta use some nads and hitting hard enough where it DEMANDS a response…

Um, because he’s not a cabinet secretary or the head of any executive agency, there’s there’s no law requiring presidential aides to be confirmed and, if there were, it would be an unconstitutional separation of powers violation?

I find it stunning that Bannon has any post at all in the White House.

Bannon has apparently been using a different substance, internally. And Ms. Pelosi ain’t wrong, imho.

There may be a law – I don’t know if the interpretation has been made that it does not apply.

“What’s making America less safe is to have a white supremacist named to the National Security Council as a permanent member, while the chairman of the Joint Chiefs and the director of National Intelligence are told, don’t call us, we’ll call you,” Pelosi told reporters at her weekly news conference.

Get em, girl! Thank you very much for refusing to pussyfoot around with terms like “alt-right” or “white nationalist”. Alt-right can be easily mistaken to mean a number of things that have nothing to do with race, religion, etc. White nationalist can be confused to mean any number of things to someone who has never heard the term. White supremacist leaves no room for confusion.
