Genuinely shocked. Did not ever see Paul Ryan saying something like this. Perhaps I was too pessimistic with WaPo's scenarios!

Surreal moment. Reporter asks Trump if Sessions should resign. Trump smirks, rolls his eyes in response mobile.twitter.com/kylegriffin1/status/889525654932377600/video/1

The White House @WhiteHouse
Remember All of #Obamacare’s Broken Promises?

Vice President Pence @VP
We were told we could keep our plan- not true.

We were told we could keep our doc- not true.

We were told premiums would go down- not true

Fuck off with your projecting, mike pence

I agree with Judge Jeanie (or whatever she's called )

Thank you Gumpendorf

Lweji · 24/07/2017 18:42

And agree with Trump.

A President shouldn't spend too much time golfing.
A President under FBI investigation shouldn't be trusted.

lionheart · 24/07/2017 18:59

Don't know if this is just more smoke. Bad enough to be true.

Just watched Kushner's speech outside the WH. He is very weird. He looks like a 12 year old with his first suit on and his hair plastered down and speaks not with authority.

Lweji · 24/07/2017 19:08

Perhaps the creature at the end of the rainbow could investigate Hillary. Specifically, why she lost the election.

They are using the Queen as an excuse for trying to duck the protests?

SetPhasersTaeMalkie · 24/07/2017 19:54

Kushner does seem quite out of place, almost juvenile.

I had the oddest sensation watching it. Here we have a person as close to the president as anyone, standing in the White House grounds saying - I did not collude with Russia. That seemed unimaginable months ago. I mean, I imagined the Trump presidency to be terrible but not quite this bad and so quickly.

The other odd sensation - that clip of Nixon - there will be no whitewash in the White House, just rung in my ears. I know the comparison to Nixon is old hat but this brought it sharply into focus for me.

I'm probably rambling, apologies. Also I clearly haven't gone back to lurking!

cozietoesie · 24/07/2017 20:04

You're not rambling. Smile

OnTheDarkSideOfTheSpoon · 24/07/2017 20:05

Stay delurked, set!

Someone tweeted about whether everyone who was accused of wrongdoing would have a chance to defend themselves from the wh podium or whether that was just reserved for family.

It's mind blowing that people accept all this nepotism. He's not fucking qualified to be a wh advisor!

cozietoesie · 24/07/2017 20:07

I loved the bit about not reading the email all the way down - or however he put it. Maybe he'll try a similar excuse in one of his many other fields of endeavour. Grin

In his retirement, McConnell will have a good chuckle that he dared to Senators to proceed to vote on a health care bill...

Shameful: Judge just denied @EPICprivacy demand for privacy assessment on Kobach's potentially illegal data request.

Ari Berman @AriBerman
This means Kobach can begin collecting sensitive voter data from states. Frightening

@IndivisibleTeam
We're getting word there could be a Trump announcement on #TrumpCare any minute. Stay tuned. Possibly re: CSRs.

SetPhasersTaeMalkie · 24/07/2017 20:24

Thanks for the lovely welcome. Flowers

And Gin all round. I think it may be needed.

cozietoesie · 24/07/2017 20:26

It likely will be needed. Wink

Thanks, Pain.

cozietoesie · 24/07/2017 20:50

Ah Well.

Roussette · 24/07/2017 21:01

Trump's finally lost it.

"Obamacare has wreaked havoc on the American people for 17 years".

He's just said that in a Speech.

Even worse is the woman with the eyebrows to his right.
