I have thought about this many times. The number of times I hear racists say I have black friends. I begin to ask myself, how many of my friends are racists?

So Robert O'Brian, Trump's appointed National Security Advisor, knew that he had Covid, didn't tell his staff as he worked with them, and also traveled to Europe for a meeting with key officials. As if that's bad enough, the WH has said it's no worry for Trump, because they haven't met in weeks.

Trump hasn't met his National Security advisor in weeks.

These guys really are the best.
 
What's the (news) value in giving those idiots a panel to utter their drivel unchallenged?
 


Who'd have thought he would be more progressive than the Dems on this, even though it's a blatant attempt help his polling.
 
There never goes a day without some type of Trumprama, it's like watching one of those really bad Aussi day time TV shows when you're at home sick with nothing else to watch, either that or Bananas in Pyjamas.

With that said, here's Trump being Presidency and reuniting the people at las... Oh wait

It does. It shows the swing voters it’s ok to swing back.

The Fox News crowd is unreachable and not worth investing time in.

Many trump voters watch CNN.

I also frequent a few Dutch alt-right sides, just to hate-read them, and to see how far I can raise my own blood pressure before exploding.

I've sadly been banned from all their comment sections.

People seem to forget just how many Obama supporters voted for Trump. They didn’t change networks too.

What grand conspiracies do the Dutch Alt right believe in? I assume at least one is that just like the entire rest of the world Soros is somehow funding all of everything they disagree with?

Under intense White House pressure, Senate Republicans agreed Monday to allocate $1.75 billion in their coronavirus relief bill toward the construction of a new D.C. headquarters for the FBI.

But top Senate Republicans immediately began distancing themselves from the provision after it was made public, saying they weren’t sure why the White House repeatedly insisted on putting it in the bill.

In calling for a new “Washington, DC headquarters facility,” the provision reflects President Trump’s ongoing interest in building a new headquarters for the FBI downtown, rather than a secure campus in the suburbs that was envisioned before he took office.

At a news conference Monday, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) initially denied that the FBI money was in the bill, but then was notified by reporters that the language was in fact included.

“You’ll have to ask them why they insisted that be included,” he told reporters, referring to the White House.

Although the provision says the money would enable the bureau to “prevent, prepare for, and respond to coronavirus, domestically or internationally,” the request did not appear to be related to the economic fallout of the pandemic, which lawmakers are rushing to address before expanded jobless aid expires later this week.

Asked Monday what a new FBI building had to do with the novel coronavirus, Sen. Richard C. Shelby (R-Ala.), a key negotiator of the stimulus package, paused and said, “Good question.”

Shelby, chair of the Senate Appropriations Committee, said that for some items the bill had to “stretch the link” to the pandemic.

“This is an administration proposal to move on with the FBI. They need a new FBI building down the street; it’s not safe to work in, you know, and so forth,” he said.

Democrats were sharply critical of the White House’s demand. “They managed to have enough money for $2 billion for the FBI headquarters that benefits Trump hotel and they say they have no money for food assistance,” said Senate Minority Leader Charles E. Schumer (D-N.Y.). “What the heck is going on?”

When the White House first proposed inserting money on the FBI building in the legislation and conditioning it on keeping the headquarters in Washington, Republican lawmakers blocked it from being in the bill, people familiar with the discussions said. But White House officials persisted in demanding the money and it ended up back in the legislation.

“As President Trump has said, the FBI desperately needs a new building and this measure provides critical funding for this project that would keep the building responsibly near the Department of Justice,” White House spokesman Judd Deere said.

Trump said at a news conference last week that a new FBI headquarters should be built downtown on the site of the crumbling J. Edgar Hoover Building.

“The best idea would be to build a new building and that way you have it for a long time,” he said.

While there is wide agreement in both parties that the FBI needs a new headquarters, Trump’s decision shortly after taking office to cancel an advanced plan to build a suburban campus and press for a new downtown location has flummoxed congressional leaders, with some Democrats accusing him of acting in his own self-interest.

Complicating efforts for a compromise are potential conflicts of interest stemming from Trump’s continued ownership of a hotel a block down Pennsylvania Avenue. Before Trump was elected, officials at his company raised concerns about a competing hotel possibly being built in place of the Hoover Building should the FBI relocate to the suburbs.

White House officials have denied that Trump’s business interests have anything to do with his plans for the bureau’s new headquarters, and last year Trump’s company announced plans to sell the hotel’s lease. Those plans are on hold because of the economic fallout of the pandemic.

Concerns over Trump’s financial interests, however, prompted the Justice Department’s Inspector General Michael E. Horowitz to launch an investigation of the decision-making that led to the cancellation of the original plan. That investigation remains ongoing more than a year later, the inspector general’s office said Monday. A spokeswoman declined to comment further.

Representatives at the FBI did not respond to questions about the provision but issued a statement saying that “the need for a new FBI headquarters facility has not abated” and that the bureau was working with Congress and the administration on a path forward.

A spokeswoman at the General Services Administration, which handles federal real estate, referred questions to the Office of Management and Budget, where officials did not provide comment.

And yet again all the statements yesterday by McConnell and the other supposed fiscal hawks in opposition to this amount to absolutely nothing.

Donnie probably not gonna sell the lease to the Trump hotel after all once he is guaranteed the Hoover Building won't become the site of a new luxury hotel like it was scheduled to become.

I'm sure all the agents who will now need to be relocated to other parts of the country instead of consolidation on DC metro campus will love it too. :wenger:

Only good thing perhaps is that I *presume* there is no way this actually permanently locks the location of a new facility down to the downtown location given that it probably will take a long time now before shovels can go in the ground... Though with these corrupt motherfeckers I'm sure they ll just find a way to do it anyway by ignoring building planning and construction requirements.

Yeah that aged like milk. Although I'd say it probably wasn't true at the time either.

Soros conspiracy theories are so old, they were even a feature in the latin american left in the 90s and 2000s. That he was funding all the neoliberal policies on the continent.
