Time To Act Now

TIME WAITS FOR NO ONE

Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
Because their words had forked no lightning they
Do not go gentle into that good night.

Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright
Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,
And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,
Do not go gentle into that good night.

Diminishing Presidency?

Submitted by ub on

Are the presidency and its clout continuing to shrink as @POTUS credibility keeps taking constant hits?

The White House says the president did receive compliments from Boy Scout leaders and Mexico’s president but in person, not on the phone, as he contended. However, Mexico's president and Boy Scout toppers are pleading a different tale. Why does this matter? The leader of the free world should be free from telling tall tales.

WH Flip Flops or Flipped Out?

Wake up America. How much longer are you willing to accept this low level of sub service from our leaders?

First, the White House says one thing, then they wind up saying another. So what are Americans supposed to believe? This is the problem journalists face with reporting the facts. These are still changing as we write this.

Trump Threats

Submitted by ub on

If the President carries out his new threat, he would be handing the insurance industry a solid court case while undermining his leverage to attract Democrats to the negotiating table. The Affordable Care Act, aka Obamacare, is the law of the land.

The Mooch Gets A Permanent Vacation

Submitted by ub on

Adios, Moochacho. The Mooch got the political kiss of death as he is shown the Whitehouse exit hatch. After 10 days, Communications Director Anthony Scaramucci failed to communicate and articulate President Trump's message. Et Tu Mooch?

Anthony Scaramucci’s dismissal was reportedly requested by newly minted Chief of Staff John Kelly, who was unhappy with Scaramucci’s assertion that he was reporting directly to President Trump.

Tax Plan or Tax Scam?

Submitted by ub on

US Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin meets Koch conservatives to promote #Trumptaxplan. Has anyone seen his taxes yet? The American taxpayer must be able to understand the full scope of #TRUMPTAXES.

How can the administration forge a close collaboration with the Koch brothers and President Trump, when his own taxes are not known? Are the Koch brothers gearing up to convince US their version of tax reform means only the 1% deserve tax cuts?
