A Breitbart writer fired for anti-Islam comments trying to raise $10K for healthcare expenses while unemployed is too much irony even for me

'Instead of giving her a raise, Breitbart squealed at pressure from leftist CNN .....................and fired her.'

Ooh, instead of doing press briefings, Spicey's taking a leaf out of his boss's playbook and tweet-attacking:

ABC News Politics @ABCPolitics

NEW: @SenSchumer: “If the President is looking for someone to blame on the slow pace of confirmations, he needs only to look in the mirror."

----------

Sean Spicer @PressSec

Actually @SenSchumer here are the facts: @POTUS has sent 102 nominations, not 63. Senate has only confirmed 39.

And I see Trump is taking more pops at London Mayor - basically saying he's soft on terrorism because he's Muslim. FFS. What a tool.

JUST IN: Supreme Court strikes down North Carolina districts drawn using race hill.cm/k5peOrN

Caroline O. Retweeted The Hill
Today's #SCOTUS ruling invalidated 28 of North Carolina's legislative districts due to racial gerrymandering.

#SCOTUS has ruled twice in 2 weeks that the North Carolina GOP unconstitutionally drew districts along racial lines.

Today's #SCOTUS case involved state legislative districts. 2 wks ago, it involved federal congressional districts.

They've apparently asked for more time rather than refusing outright. At this stage, anyway. Wink

I've been working all day, just caught up with the thread but my goodness this is fast moving even for Trump-watch.

Do we know what time (GMT) the Comey testimony will be broadcast?

cozietoesie · 05/06/2017 20:56

I suspect they'll have some good lawyers, lion.

An old piece.

Redistricting

AcrossthePond55 · 05/06/2017 21:19

lion per the WaPo, public testimony is scheduled to being at 10am EDT with private testimony scheduled for 1pm.

I think that would be 3pm UK time?

AcrossthePond55 · 05/06/2017 21:24

Oh, and the way Canadians are paying tribute to Christine Archibald is just so, well, so Canadian.

Even if the next President couldn't get in again so quickly, there's nothing to say that the country couldn't abide by agreed targets - tougher targets even? Smile
