As requested

Between the so-called 'tax plan' (which it sounds like many of the GOP are giving the side-eye), the North Korea willy-waving, the loss of some more public lands to potential gas/oil drilling, and the 'Freedom' Caucus reversing its stand on DonTCare II, it's been a helluva day. Cocktail hour is rapidly approaching here. Make mine a double!

2018.

Just keep that thought front and fore, Across.

Keep reminding me cozie!

But I'll have a double, anyway!

Sensible.

Some of you might want to read this. (The embedded video can also be played.)

Eulogy

The all-Senate meeting regarding the developing North Korea situation that lasted a colossal 14 minutes. Apparently it took them longer to get there and the coffees had not cooled by the time the meeting was concluded, because obviously it isn't a complex situation at all.

Not sure if this has been posted- The Simpsons on the first 100 days

Made my day.

Ha, someone on twitter has called ivanka "Nepotism Barbie".

JUST IN: Trump agrees w/ leaders of Canada & Mexico not to terminate NAFTA "at this time", nations to move "swiftly" to enable renegotiation

@mattyglesias
I feel like the half-life of dumb Trump bluffs is getting shorter.

Today's shiny coins:

• NAFTA
• Trumpcare 3
• Trump Tax "Plan" (well one-pager) 1

We looked away:

• Flynn
• Trump-Russia scandal #resist

BTW, it's far better for Trump to bluff and climb down than just do reckless stuff to save face. So: yay?

Adam Schiff‏ @RepAdamSchiff
.@POTUS tax plan is huge. Huge tax cuts for corporations/wealthy, huge deficit for country, and a huge disappointment all around.

This is worth a watch:

Jared Kushner courts scandal with sketchy business backers www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddow/watch/jared-kushner-courts-scandal-with-sketchy-business-backers-930668099607

Seoul is only 35 miles from the border God, yes, scary, especially as my DD is due to go there in the Autumn...

Reading the meagre details of his tax plans, it seems to me as if every single change of his benefits the Trumps in every which way. Has all this gone through Across?

It's a few months old now, but still relevant, and I hadn't seen it before.

The world through Trump's eyes.

The top tweeter on DT's feed is William LeGate, he nails it every time.

This is his latest...
Trump is holding ANOTHER campaign rally for 2020… it'd be a shame if Twitter took all the tickets & no one showed up www.donaldjtrump.com/schedule/register/harrisburg-pa2 … pic.twitter.com/0o9tt7sT5N

The power of MN perhaps. I think I might apply for free tickets for this Saturday, of course I'll fly over to attend

While watching a reminder of Jared's to do lists, I'm thinking that perhaps instead (or as well as) of analysing Trump's first 100 days we should be looking at Jared's.

So, how is it going:
American innovation?
The criminal justice system?
Veteran care?
Opioid epidemic?
The entire federal government?

Peace in the Middle East?

He's seems like he's not being utilised enough lweji - I think we should throw in world peace (not just Middle East), curing cancer and going back in time to stop hitler

This is interesting:

Lawmaker goes after internet troll by calling his grandmother

thehill.com/blogs/in-the-know/in-the-know/330753-lawmaker-goes-after-internet-troll-by-calling-his-grandmother?amp

I think we should open a book for which Nobel Prize the Trump/Kushners are going to carry off next year - or even this year ? After all, peace in the Middle East has got to put Jared in there with a shout at least?

Roussette the tax plan is just a 'proposal'. Actually, it's just a single page suggestions but not how they'll be implemented nor what effect they'll have on government spending. Another of his "I have a plan but I'm not telling" bullshit things.

I like the part at the very bottom where it says there will be meetings with 'stakeholders'. As taxpayers I'd say 'We, the People' have a stake in this but I don't think any of us are holding our breath for an invitation. I'm sure the 1% and the corporations have already gotten theirs.
