Discussion: Trump Signs Executive Order Laying Out 'Extreme Vetting'

this is serious. i was a lawyer in the office of the general counsel at a major federal agency in DC and we reviewed numerous drafts of EOs over the course of many months before those EOs were signed. in other words, it was a very methodical and - pardon the pun - deliberative process to ensure that, among other things, the Administration had the appropriate authorities to act.

I saw another comment here that said these clowns are using EOs like press releases - seems about right. wonder if the lawyers at DHS OGC (or DOS or DoD for that matter) saw any drafts before this one was signed?

I think that’s probably the most irritating thing because you want to shake them and ask, “What the hell is the matter with you?!” But then all you’ll get is that zombie “Grrrrrrrr.”

Anyone else feel like it’s only the Neo-Confederacy sonsofbitches being addressed here?

And all the leaks about man baby freak out over the weekend about the size of his crowd is part of his superior 12-dimensional chess skills.

Republicans should just take the next 4 years off since all Twitler will be doing is signing unConstitutional, abuse-of-power executive orders.

Nothing but daily inept chaos from this loon.

What have we done to ourselves?

You are absolutely right. We should believe nothing coming from these liars. They have proven themselves over and over again to be untrustworthy. The media shouldn’t give them the time of day unless they are fact checked in real time.

I believe the weekend man baby crowd size freakout leaks are probably 14th or 15th dimensional gambits. Somewhere up around there.

That’s really all they are, high level tweeting. Meaningless, useless blathering on paper.

The devil is in the details. Depending on what the order says, it could call for anything from what we already had in place, to full on McCarthyist wet dream (transposed from commies to Muslims).

Maybe you shouldn’t have voted for him.

Once again moving faster than I expected. I didn’t think we’d get into the “moving imaginary divisions around on a map in the bunker” stage for months yet.

I feel that as well. I’m so sick of these people already. The clock is ticking on all these a$$holes.

Where to begin? KFC with fork and knife: wrong. Containers of mashed potatoes and gravy unopened: sad. Eating all the french fries without any ketchup and ignoring the hamburger: barbaric.

You said “what have we done to ourselves”. I didn’t vote for him. I doubt other people on this message board voted for him. That leaves you.

Suppose it’s a little late to tell Trumpet all the terrorists who did bad things were either US citizens or had legal presence here.

Ooops my bad. Trump zeroed out the budget for DHS officers to go overseas :facepalm:

Oh and don’t feed the trololos :wink:

And his extreme vetting will be no vetting since he has decided not to let anyone in.
