They're not getting the support they need so they're postponing the vote in case they lose. Fuckers. They'll be pressuring people over the weekend.

This was amusing- they redacted all the untrue bits in trumps interview with time magazine.

Rogue Potus staff has been discredited I think?

I am not aware that they have. If anyone knows anything concrete i would be interested in hearing it. I know there have been a lot of accusations and theories with no actual evidence behind them, but I haven't read anything that either confirms they are really what they say or that they definitely aren't.

I have followed them since they started and haven't seen anything that suggests they are either a white house plant, a russian plot or anything else particularly nefarious. I also haven't seen them produce any earth shattering revelations, so am pretty agnostic about whether they are really WH staffers or just people making shit up. I don't see them doing any particular harm to the anti-trump cause though, so think it is a bit unfair to discredit without evidence.

I wasn't sure either, hence the question mark, but the account seems very.....strange. Whether that's because it's a group of people running it I don't know. I don't think it's a Russian one at all but I do wonder if it's a bit of a wind up. The 'angry whitehouse staffer' one seems to be more on point with what then happens

The group proposing to cut breast cancer screening, maternity care, and contraceptive coverage.

A very telling photo on that ^ tweet posted by Ginger. I think the phrase I'm looking for is "sausage fest" - what I can never understand is that these men wives, mothers, daughters... Or is the problem that they are all minted enough to have top notch cover, and everyone else's mother/wife/daughter is expendable?

Potus staff website is 4chan
Dodgy as it seems
