Muslim Ban 2.0 has been slapped down (again) by the 4th Circuit. Unfortunately, they’re probably already at work on Muslim Ban 3.0 while this one is being appealed to its eventual and final defeat.

From the decision:

speaks with vague words of national security, but in context drips with religious intolerance, animus, and discrimination

Yep, that’s the one.

Something good may come from all these stupid executive orders: Congress may finally move to curb presidential powers and devalue executive orders.

I saw some right-wing warriors jumping to his defense by insisting that the positions for the picture were previously arranged, so he was just going where he was supposed to go.

As if that is an excuse for not politely tapping the guy and saying “excuse me”.

Guy is a total clown. An almost 70 year old baby and a national embarrassment. Shameful that a grown man would ever think about acting like that.

Keep in mind that this is merely comedy and did not actually happen.

The fact that I had to post a disclaimer is telling, though.

To be fair, most of the vote was cast via early voting before he attacked the reporter, and some may not have heard the news quickly enough to affect their vote (esp. as the local NBC affiliate refused to cover the story–they were recently bought by the right-wing Sinclair Broadcast Group).

To be fairer, he was a raging asshole long before he starting hurling people to the floor and even the early voters would have known this.

Wow, will they refuse to cover the court appearance as well? I hope that’s not the only tv station in the area!

Exactly. They would’ve voted for him regardless. In fact, I’m sure many supporters like him even more now. There were audible chuckles and an immediate “You’re forgiven!” from the crowd during his apology/victory speech.

Trump’s America: clueless as to how their freedoms are maintained and willingly supportive of those who would strip it from them.

Rampant anti-intellectualism plays a huge role in this.

Keep Circulating the Tapes.

Former House Speaker John Boehner gave President Donald Trump’s young presidency low marks at an event Wednesday, saying that other than getting the House to pass a health care bill, “everything else he’s done has been a complete disaster.”

“He’s still learning how to be president,” Boehner said during an appearance as the keynote speaker for the KPMG Global Energy Conference, according to a recap from RigZone.com.

Boehner also said that his hopes for tax reform had dimmed, calling the preliminary discussions that are going on “just a bunch of happy talk.”

The health care bill may end up being the most disastrous of all!

Also…RigZone.com?

These idiots need reminding what it’s like in countries without a free press, or be encouraged to move to one. 😉

Can one serve in office with a felony on their record? Committed before they were in office of course.

They don’t want a free press. They want Breibart state propaganda. They gave the game away when they claim the constitution gives them the right to own a gun, but then they want to ban people of a certain religion from entering the country.

Remember when it was admirable to seek out higher education and be an informed citizen?
